Chapter 37 A Gold Brick



It turned out that the two old people were framed and sent down by their relatives.

All this was because the younger brother thought that his elder brother, as a university professor, was extremely glorious and had never thought of supporting him as a younger brother, so he wanted to let his elder brother suffer. He completely forgot that when he was a child, it was who worked hard to take him away from the persecution of war and helped him survive in the chaotic world.

The other party has forgotten all of this.

But the old man could not forget it. He kept it in his heart, and his hatred for his brother became stronger and stronger.

"We have to save our lives. Our son is being sent to the northwest! He's living a much harder life than us. If he knew we were gone, how desperate would he be?" When the woman heard the man's words, she thought of her own son who was sent to the northwest, and she felt so distressed.

The two seemed to have made some kind of decision and opened the baskets in front of them.

After seeing what was in the basket, they were shocked again.

They thought having a big meat bun was already very good, and they thought they were mistaken about the smell of eggs. But when they opened the aluminum lunch boxes, they found that there were three dishes and four big meat buns.

I’ve never eaten food like this since I moved into the cowshed, let alone before!

After being shocked for a while, the two of them hesitated whether to return it to the young man, but when they thought that someone had given it to them, they would not think of returning it.

So I gritted my teeth and started eating.

The situation was similar to this place. Liu Chengfeng, Wen Qiong and Liu Kang didn't say much and started eating quickly.

Chen Xi was worried that they would have nothing to eat during the day, so he stuffed them with several big meat buns. He had made a lot of these big meat buns tonight.

"Why are you spending so much money, girl?" Wen Qiong was shocked and anxious. As an elder, it was already a dereliction of duty for her not to help her own children, so how could she ask them for so much food?

"The most important thing for me is that you two old people stay healthy. Have you forgotten that you gave all your savings to your mother before the accident? I have money and tickets, plenty of money to make delicious food for you." Chen Xi said as he put the buns away, stuffed them into the empty basket, and then handed the empty basket of buns to Liu Kang.

Liu Kang quickly took it and went to hide the thing.

After hearing what Chen Xi said, the two old men didn't know what to say. Their eyes were red, but the light was dim and they couldn't see anything.

"Don't worry, I will come here every night from now on. Just eat with confidence. I can get food for you. You don't have to worry about spending money. This money is just for filling your stomach." Because they were worried about being discovered, they ate very quickly and finished their meal in a short while.

As Chen Xi spoke, he began to clean up the dishes.

Liu Chengfeng and Wen Qiong looked at Chen Xi lovingly, "Child, you have to pay attention to what you eat! You are almost at the age of getting married, and it's not good to be so short!" Although a woman can get married no matter what she looks like, it is always better to be taller.

Chen Xi paused his movements and said, "Hey! I know. Don't worry, I won't treat myself badly." Chen Xi said loudly.

The two old men nodded.

After clearing away the dishes, Chen Xi stood up and carried them to the water tank in their house.

While they weren't paying attention to him, he secretly put some spiritual spring water into the water tank.

The system said that this spiritual spring water needs to be diluted for ordinary people to drink. Chen Xi also hopes that they can be healthy and not get sick again.

Given the rural medical environment of this era, aren’t there many people who cannot be cured?

"Grandpa and grandma, it's almost time. I'll be leaving first." Chen Xi didn't dare to stay. After all, this was not his home. The longer he talked to them, the greater the chance of being discovered.

Besides, they had already chatted for a whole meal, which was enough.

"Okay, girl, it's hard to walk at night, so you should slow down." Grandpa and grandma said hurriedly.

Chen Xi nodded. She certainly knew that it was difficult to walk at night, but since her body had been tempered by the Strength Pill and the Agility Pill, her five senses had become unusually clear.

So walking at night is as easy as walking on flat ground for her.

As soon as he walked out of his grandfather's house and headed next door, he saw an opened basket placed at the other person's door. Chen Xi knew that the two elderly people next door had also finished eating.

Just as I walked forward to pick up the things, the door creaked open.

Two thin and pitiful-looking old men appeared in front of Chen Xi.

"Young man, please don't send us food in the future. We appreciate your kindness." After finishing today's meal, the two old people felt that this young man was really a good person. The dishes he sent not only contained eggs and meat, but were also soft and tasty, suitable for these toothless old men and women to eat.

Yes, those who lived in the cowshed had experienced some terrible things before being sent down, which caused their teeth to fall out prematurely. Now their mouths have no chewing function at all, only swallowing function.

Not to mention them, Liu Kang was not much better off either, some of his teeth were knocked out.

But because he is young, his teeth are still quite strong.

"It's easy to beg for favors, and it's unacceptable to be grateful for what you receive. I'm just delivering something to my grandparents and giving it to you at the same time. Don't feel too burdened. I'm giving it to you, and you just eat it." In fact, Chen Xi didn't give them more than his grandparents.

The system asked her to help, and she couldn't help the other party unconditionally, so their food was the leftovers of the food she gave to her grandparents, all cooked in the same pot, so they didn't have to bear such a psychological burden at all.

"Just think of it as me trying to shut you up." Chen Xi said this, picked up the basket and left.

Leaving behind were two old people who didn't know what to say and were just moved to tears.

They watched Chen Xi walk away until he disappeared, and then the two old men let out a long sigh.

I hope Chen Xi can find what they left for her!

This was one of the few good things they had left.

Chen Xi walked to a secluded corner and slipped into the space. He drove away and was about to leave, but he found a golden thing in the basket.

When he looked down, Chen Xi was shocked by what he saw.

Wow!

What the hell!

She picked up the thing and weighed it in her hand. Oh my god! It was a real gold brick!

The old couple actually gave him a gold brick!

My God, this weight, if it were in the future, it would be enough to make a pair of bracelets and a necklace.

Thinking about how in his previous life he could only envy others wearing gold and silver, while he only had an old and worthless watch hanging on his wrist, it is easy to imagine how excited Chen Xi was when he saw this gold brick.
