With a click, the light bulb came on again.
The dim light cast all over the ground, causing Zhou Tianjiao, who had not seen light for a long time, to close her eyes in unbearable pain.
Su Man pressed the switch again and confirmed that the light bulb was fine.
Then he clapped his hands, opened the lunch box, and helped Zhou Tianjiao sit up.
"I see you didn't have dinner. There's only mixed noodles for sale around here."
"Just eat whatever you can. I'll bring you something delicious tomorrow."
"If you need to go to the bathroom, just use the toilet inside. Don't feel embarrassed."
"I'll come early tomorrow..."
Listening to Su Man's chattering, looking at the steaming mixed noodles in front of me.
Zhou Tianjiao's eyes felt a little hot and her throat felt a little tight.
"You little girl, you're not very old, but you're so nosy. I told you to...get out."
Su Man smiled and placed the kettle and cup beside the bed.
Everything was thought out to make it convenient for Zhou Tianjiao to pour water.
"Isn't it? I am a worrier."
"If you don't want to listen to me nagging you, just get treated and get well soon."
She waved at Zhou Tianjiao and turned to walk out.
"I changed the lock on the outside. The key is under your pillow."
"It's convenient for me to come in. I left a key."
"When you get better, I'll give you the key back, and you can change the lock then."
Hearing the door open and close, Zhou Tianjiao couldn't help but look up.
The scene outside was still desolate, but inside the house, there was a little more of a homely feel.
It was as if she had come back to life again.
She stared at the noodles in the lunch box and a sob came out of her throat.
Then, the only sound in the room was the sound of people eating noodles.
Su Man took a bus back to the courtyard. After taking a shower, she took out her small treasury and carefully counted it.
Not to mention, the savings alone are about 50,000 or 60,000.
All this money can be given to Lin Ye, and she also has some jewelry and other things that Lin Ye gave her.
If it really doesn't work, you can still sell it for a few thousand or ten thousand.
The hole in the forest is not small, so I guess this is definitely not enough.
It would be nice if I could borrow some from someone.
Su Man frowned and rummaged through the passbook and jewelry with a heavy heart.
"Mannier, Mom made dumplings for you, eat some before you go to sleep."
Wang Ermei walked in with a plate of dumplings and saw Su Man's expression.
He walked forward and took a look, then asked in a gentle voice.
"Are you in trouble?"
Su Man nodded and did not hide it from Wang Ermei.
"Mom, it's not me, it's Lin Ye."
"He seems to be short of money, and not just a little bit of money..."
Wang Ermei picked up a dumpling and stuffed it into Su Man's mouth, put the chopsticks in her hand, turned around and walked out.
"Wait!"
Seeing Wang Ermei's anxious look, Su Man wanted to call her.
After swallowing the dumplings in her mouth, Wang Ermei ran back panting.
Gu Tianxing was holding a cloth bag in his hand and following behind him was holding a child.
She walked up to Su Man and opened the cloth bag.
He dumped out the passbook and a few old gold rings.
"Didn't Mom tell you that I opened a breakfast shop in De City with someone else?"
"I made some money. This is eight thousand nine hundred and seventy yuan."
"Sell these two gold rings for a few dozen dollars."
"If that's not enough, Mom will sell the breakfast shop to someone else. It should bring in a few thousand yuan..."
Listening to Wang Ermei's words, he looked at the passbook in front of him, which had obviously been touched too many times and had frayed edges.
Su Man knew that her mother had spent all the family savings for her retirement.
"Mom, no need..."
Wang Ermei thought Su Man thought it was too little, so she said hurriedly.
"Mom can still make money now. Take it first. I'll set up a fried pancake stall outside and earn a dozen yuan a day to supplement the family income."
"Lin Ye is my son-in-law. How can I just stand by and watch him go through trouble? Is that still a human being?"
Gu Tianxing also smiled and greeted Su Man.
"You guys take it first..."
She also saw Wang Ermei frantically looking for her passbook, and only after asking did she find out what had happened.
"We two old people will help as much as we can."
Su Man had no choice but to put the passbook away first.
Afraid that Gu Tianxing would overthink it again, he hurriedly reminded him.
"Mom, I know your situation. Just help me take care of Tuantuan and Yuanyuan. I'll find a way to pay for it."
Gu Tianxing smiled and said, "I know, I won't show off."
At night, Tuantuan and Yuanyuan both fell asleep.
Gu Tianxing just got up and quietly went out...
——————
The next morning, Su Man was awakened by Wang Ermei's screams.
"Oh no, Mannier, your mother-in-law is missing again."
Lin Ye called last night and said he had to go out of town for something.
I may not be able to come back in the next two days.
Su Man guessed that she should go to another place to see if she could get a loan.
He didn't ask any further questions, just told Lin Ye to be careful.
With her watching over the house, nothing will happen.
But on the first night after Lin Ye left, the mother-in-law disappeared.
What should I do?
Su Man jumped out of bed with a start, hurriedly put on her clothes and ran out.
As soon as I reached the front yard, I saw the door open.
Gu Tianxing walked in with a tired look on his face, looking dusty and dusty.
Behind him, there followed Hu Hongping, who also looked exhausted.
Seeing Su Man and Wang Ermei holding the child, he smiled embarrassedly.
"Are you all scared? I went to get some things yesterday."
Gu Tianxing invited Hu Hongping in and quickly closed the door.
