Being looked at like this by Han Jingchen, Pei Manning's dark eyelashes trembled. She grabbed the clothes, pursed her lips, calmed herself down, placed the thick clothes on the wooden table, and carefully tore the clothes open along the tear.
Jiang Ye was stunned for a moment, and saw her slowly tear open the dirty and torn shirt, rummage through the thick reed fluff, and then she touched a hard object and took out the small package of butter paper from the reed fluff.
"Pei 땢zhi, did you hide money in your clothes?" 놛 was shocked, thinking that there were money and bills inside, "Open it quickly to see if anything is soaked?"
Pei Manning shook her head slightly and unfolded the tightly wrapped oil paper and handkerchief, revealing several rings and bracelets inside.
They were all carefully selected by her. The four rings were handmade with exquisite craftsmanship and beautiful carvings. They were not of top quality, but the quality was not too bad, not too bad to be considered inferior, and not too shocking.
The four bracelets are all made of pure gold, without any carvings or threads, and the bracelets do not have any patterns or logos. However, they are very heavy, weighing more than six taels (according to the old system).
She thought, no matter whether the times are prosperous or chaotic, there will always be someone who will prevail, right?
Pei Manning divided the things into two and kept the smaller portion for herself.
"Pei Zhi, you..." Jiang Ye looked around, quickly closed the door, and lowered his voice, "How did you take these things out? Put them away quickly, it will be troublesome if someone sees them."
Pei Manning was stunned. She looked at Jiang Ye who seemed a little anxious, and Han Jingchen who had a sullen expression, and felt uneasy.
놛 means that money can move people's hearts?
Or...what's wrong with these things?
She carefully stole a glance at Han Jingchen's eyes again, and seeing that he was just frowning and had no intention of questioning her, she looked at the pen in his chest pocket with an anxious look.
Han Jingchen: "You want to write?"
Pei Manning nodded. Han Jingchen paused, took off his pen, and handed her the small notebook he had carried with him.
"These are for you two." Pei Manning wrote slowly, "Thank you for paying for the medicine."
She mustered up the courage to take out these things because she saw that the two men were of noble character and upright character.
Otherwise, as an orphan, she would never dare to waste money.
In addition, she wanted to find a source for her money. After all, Han Jingchen rescued her from the water, and she had nothing but tattered clothes.
After Han Jingchen and Jiang Ye left, she had to stay here for a while.
It takes a long time, and I don't know when I can find a job to make a living. If I suddenly become rich, Liao Weiguo will probably find it strange.
"Pei Zhi, this won't do! We are only saving you as a matter of course, but we cannot accept your things, that's against discipline!" Jiang Ye nervously hesitated to refuse, fearing that he would violate military discipline.
Those rings were very valuable in the past, but now people are encouraged to work hard and are not allowed to wear jewelry, especially in the past few years, when antiques, calligraphy and paintings, gold and silver jewelry were confiscated everywhere, and even gold hidden in wall cracks and bicycle frames could be dug out.
These things are too eye-catching!
Pei Manning pursed her lips, not quite understanding why Jiang Ye said it was a violation of discipline?
In her opinion, it was very common for soldiers and military officers to accept gifts privately. Even for the upright ones, it was reasonable for them to receive some thank-you gifts after saving people.
Han Jingchen looked at her with a serious expression, "Don't take these things out in the future. If you don't want to be reported, keep them away quickly."
"Yes, Pei Zhi, you should put the things away, especially these rings and bracelets. What if someone sees them and reports you for being greedy and pursuing capitalism?" Jiang Ye kindly advised.
Although I didn't quite understand what capitalism meant, seeing Han Jingchen and Jiang Ye's serious faces, it was probably a very bad thing.
Pei Manning put away the things and nodded seriously to show that she understood.
What happened today made her feel a little heavy-hearted, and she warned herself to be careful in the future.
Han Jingchen looked at his watch. It was already past ten o'clock. "Okay, we should go to the train station. The hospital has just informed us and has prepaid the fee. You can take your things with you when you are discharged. From now on... take care of yourself!"
Pei Manning glanced at her watch curiously but didn't ask any more questions.
"I'll go see you off," Pei Manning wrote. Although she didn't know where the railway station was, she recognized the word "car", perhaps a car dealership. It should be the place with the most people traveling between the north and the south. She wanted to see if the people here had ever heard of Yangzhou City or Chongzhou.
Of course, she really wanted to give them a ride.
"No, the station is crowded, it's not safe for you as a woman." Han Jing frowned. This woman, she looks like this, but she has no sense?
"Pei Zhi, after we leave by train, it will be bad for you, a female Zhi, to come back from the station alone. You should stay in the hospital. The doctor said you need another IV in the afternoon." Jiang Yexiao hurriedly advised her. The station was crowded with people.
The dragon is mixed, Pei 땢 智 looks very insecure.
Pei Manning curled her fingers, pursed her lips, and wrote: "I will be careful and cover my face."
She wanted to see where they were going.
"Okay, just stay in the hospital." Han Jingchen's tone left no room for negotiation.
This woman insisted on following me to the train station. Was she trying to hop on the train? 놛 glanced at Pei Manning suspiciously, his eyes as sharp as a fierce hawk.
Pei Manning was afraid of 놛, so she looked at 놛's expression carefully and nodded softly.
Han Jingchen handed her the pen and the notebook and said, "I'll leave these two things for you. If you have any problems, go find the doctor and the nurse."
Pei Manning took the paper and pen, thought about it, and finally did not refuse. She nodded to Han Jingchen: Okay.
