When Fifth Grandpa arrived at the gangster's stronghold, the gatekeeper recognized him and knew that he was Fourth Brother (Jiang Huashu)'s fifth uncle. He hurriedly called out "Fifth Uncle" and invited him in without any notice. Fifth Grandpa didn't go directly into the house. It was a bit too early and the gangster hadn't gotten up yet. So he asked where the people he brought with him were. After learning that they were in the backyard, he went straight to the backyard.
These people were working in the backyard. When they were brought in, they were unkempt and had their heads shaved because they had lice. They had showered, changed into clean clothes, cloth shoes, and even new socks.
Jiang Huashu told the gang leader at the time that he wanted to send them to the mountains to work because he was worried that they would be difficult to manage if they were far away from people, so his only requirement was to train them to death during the few days they were there.
Who would be a decent person? You can survive by digging wild vegetables in the mountains, and you can support yourself by doing anything. Why hide in the slums? So everyone knows these homeless people are definitely not decent people, so they don't feel sorry for them no matter how they are trained.
After watching the drills for a while, Fifth Grandpa thought the amount was okay, much easier than when they were in the army. Without saying anything more, he strolled to the front yard, just as Black Boss had gotten up.
Fifth Grandpa followed Jiang Huashu's instructions and said that the goods in Warehouse No. 1 had been replenished and the next batch would arrive tomorrow. The gang leader rubbed his hands happily and stood up to pour water for Fifth Grandpa. Fifth Grandpa took this opportunity to say goodbye and leave.
When they returned to the western-style building and locked the door, Professor Dong had not returned yet, so the old man just walked around and waited for her to come back.
In Fifth Grandpa's eyes, Jiang Huashu and Professor Dong were his own sons and daughters. Just imagine how much trust he must have in sharing such a huge secret. As an old, lonely man, he had to be truly sincere to his children.
Strolling along, he arrived near the department store. This street is considered one of the busiest commercial streets of the modern era, but it's only so simple in this particular era. Grandpa Wu was about to enter the department store, thinking of buying some snacks for his two granddaughters. He'd been deeply impressed by the donkey-dung-shaped chocolate he'd bought last time, so this time he wanted something humane.
I saw an elegant middle-aged woman with her eyes closed and a pale face. She swayed a few times and fell to the ground.
Dear readers, do you remember who it is?
Last time I mentioned her, a smart kid left a message asking if she was the official match for Fifth Grandpa. I'll give you a spoiler: she definitely is! ^_^
He strode over to the woman, gently caressed her, and helped her sit on the side of the road. He looked around to see if there was anyone around, then quickly walked into the department store and summoned two salespeople to help him inside. Grandpa Wu probably fainted because of low blood sugar, coupled with the heat.
The waiter brought a cool towel to wipe the unconscious woman's face, neck, and arms. He then fanned her with a newspaper the postman had just delivered. After about five or six minutes, the woman regained consciousness. After being helped to sit up and rest for a while, she thanked Uncle Wu and the two salespeople. She was clearly a well-educated and refined Jiangnan woman.
Grandpa Wu waved his hand, told her to take a rest before leaving, and then went to the grocery counter to buy food for his granddaughter. It was a small matter, so he didn't take it seriously. After buying things, when he reached the gate and was about to leave, he saw that the woman hadn't left yet. She was standing at the door with a small bag, probably waiting for someone.
