Going out
They had no idea that Grandma Jiang could do so many things in her last moments.
Perhaps it was because he was about to die and had some premonition that now was the time to use these things. At the same time, the old couple also enjoyed the remaining grace of Grandma Jiang.
With this in mind, Chen Li and Zhao Fu did not go back immediately after looking at the things. Instead, they went to pay their respects in front of Grandma Jiang's grave. At the same time, they also secretly promised in their hearts that Jiang Tian would be left to their care in the future.
Although they had made this promise before Grandma Jiang passed away, it would not be too much to say this as many times as necessary. Apart from anything else, Jiang Tian was the only bloodline left by their daughter.
When I finally sat down in the living room again, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
Chen Li spoke first, asking Jiang Tian what he thought, whether he was going to go shopping with everyone or not.
Jiang Tian was also very hesitant. She felt that she shouldn't go. She already had so many things at home. Besides, it would be too troublesome to go to the village chief to get a certificate to buy things.
But if I don’t go, I’ll always feel bad.
She told her grandparents all her thoughts, then looked at the two old people with eager eyes and took Jiang Da into her arms.
While waiting for his grandparents to speak, Jiang Tian stroked Jiang Da in his arms, pushing harder and harder.
Chen Li and Zhao Fu looked at each other, and it was Chen Li who spoke first.
"My advice is that you can go, but you also need to buy some necessities. You have to know that although no one knows you are at home now, the traces of your life cannot be deceived, and someone will always find out."
He took a sip of water and continued, "You've never lacked food at home. You know, it's not the lack of food that's a problem, but the inequality of food. Your grandmother and I suffered greatly from this."
Apart from the last time when he caused trouble to the old couple out of a momentary kindness, Zhao Fu has always been a relatively rational person. He learned a lesson last time and knew that the current society is no longer the one with stable order.
Even the future will be comparable to when they were children.
Therefore, before you have strong abilities, you can live smoothly only by hiding among everyone and not showing off, and the rafters that stick out will rot first.
She also spoke, "Yes, I have learned a lesson this time. I must remember this in the future and not be so kind. I have lived a peaceful life for so many years that I don't remember the chaotic days before."
Chen Li and Zhao Fu got married relatively early, so they are not very old now, only in their sixties. They also experienced that turbulent era and went through a lot, otherwise they would not have been able to live in that small village.
I didn’t expect that there are bad people everywhere, and of course, there are good people everywhere too.
"You probably also feel that it's not good not to go, but you think that you have enough at home and don't want to compete with others. But if you don't go, others won't get any more." Zhao Fu thought for a while and said this again.
Jiang Tian didn't say anything. After her grandparents finished speaking, she was silent for a long time. As a person who has always lived in a peaceful society, although she has encountered some bad things since she was a child, they have rarely been so shocked.
She thought about it and smiled self-deprecatingly. The system is already there, so what's so strange about it?
Having made up her mind, she let go of Jiang Da, who she had been holding tightly, and said, "Grandpa and grandma, let's see what we should buy."
"I guess there should be a limit. Every household has a quota. I just don't know whether it is calculated based on the number of residents or on each household." Chen Li suddenly said while writing.
"Let's write it first. Who can be sure of what will happen next? Tiantian will act according to the circumstances." Zhao Fu said and gave Jiang Tian a look, telling him not to let his grandfather nag anymore.
Jiang Tian's nervous mood was also relieved by his grandmother, and he almost laughed out loud.
The three of them discussed it, and Jiang Da, who didn't understand, ran to the yard to have fun again. However, Jiang Tian had emphasized to it before that it was not allowed to make loud noises. If it was discovered by others, she would not be able to protect it.
I wrote down the food quickly. Although I don’t need it for the time being, I still have to buy it, otherwise it will attract too much attention.
After finishing writing, Shen Li handed the paper to Jiang Tian and Zhao Fu, "Please see if there is anything else you need to add."
Then he gave Jiang Tian some money and said, "Take this money and spend it first. Buy as much as you can."
Jiang Tian was also surprised when she saw the money she brought over. "This is too much. How can I use it all?" Originally, her grandparents would give her money on time every month. She also had the money left by her grandmother, which was really enough for her to spend. She didn't expect her grandfather to give her so much at once.
Zhao Fu didn't care. "Just take it. If you come across something suitable, you can buy it immediately. Besides," she leaned closer to Jiang Tian and said to her with a smile, "This is just the beginning. It hasn't even reached its full capital yet."
The things left behind in her and Shen Li's home are what are valuable. This money cannot be brought into this world and cannot be taken away from this world, so it must be spent when necessary.
Then she took another piece of paper and said, "Your grandpa has already written down the food. I don't think there's anything else that needs to be added. Please add some of your favorite snacks. I'll write down the medicine you need."
Although Zhao Fu is a Chinese medicine practitioner, she has learned a lot of Western medicine emergency medicines over the years. Regardless of how much she has at home, if things cannot return to normal in the short term, it is not excessive to buy more.
She first wrote down Band-Aids, thermometers, friction ointments, mint ointments, antibiotics, and various cold, fever-reducing, anti-inflammatory, and painkiller medicines, as well as Huoxiang Zhengqi drops to prevent heatstroke as summer is coming soon.
After thinking about it, I added snake medicine to treat poisonous insect bites, and Yunnan Baiyao powder, which can be used to stop bleeding.
Disinfectant, alcohol, and potassium permanganate tablets can also be used for disinfection after dilution. As long as they are properly stored, they can be used for a long time.
After finishing writing, Zhao Fu laughed at himself, "Look at me, I'm old, and it's not wartime anymore, how can I be short of so many medicines? I'll write another one."
As he said this, he was about to pick up the paper and prepare to rewrite.
Jiang Tian took the written paper and said, "Grandma, I don't think you need to rewrite it. I always feel that this rain is not good. It is so fierce. No one can predict what it will be like in the future. It is always better to buy some things to prepare at home. It is better to be prepared."
Jiang Tian didn't know how to tell his grandparents, "I dreamed that a disaster was coming. I also have a system that knows that the world will change drastically in the future, but if you ask me how it will change, I don't know."
I guess she disappeared as soon as she said the word "system".
After hearing what Jiang Tian said, Chen Li and Zhao Fu also felt that it made sense. Just buy it. It is best if you don’t need it, but if you do use it, sometimes it can cost your life.
Thinking of this, Zhao Fu added some medicines, such as quick-acting heart pills and nitroglycerin.
Jiang Tian also added some gauze, bandages, a life-saving whistle, a flashlight, an eternal candle, a flint and other items.
Looking at the three full pages of paper, Chen Li spoke, "Or I'll go tomorrow. These things are not easy to carry."
Jiang Tian shook his head and said, "Forget it. You two should stay at home for now. Don't let anyone know that you are here with me. Otherwise, if the news spreads to your village, it will not be good."
Shen Li didn't notice Jiang Tian's behavior last night. Only Zhao Fu noticed it. Later, he was tired and forgot to tell Shen Li.
Seeing his grandfather's puzzled expression, Jiang Tian thought for a moment and recounted what he had done. "I estimate that at least half of them are fighting each other right now."
Neither of the two old men was the type to repay evil with kindness. After hearing what Jiang Tian said, Chen Li felt a little scared. "You should have called me to come with you. It's so dangerous to be alone at night."
Jiang Tian naturally didn't dare to say that she had the system. Since she had the system, she felt that her five senses had become more acute. They were sensitive enough before, but now she could feel if someone was walking near her house.
"Next time, definitely next time." She looked at her grandfather with a smile and said perfunctorily.
Looking at her like this, Shen Li didn't know what to say, or Zhao Fu said beside her, "The children are grown up, we should let them go and do something."
She thought Jiang Tian must know something or have some means to save his life, so she dared to do this. Thinking of the strange people she had met before, she thought her granddaughter had this ability.
Zhao Fu was very happy. At least when Jiang Tian encountered danger in the future, he would not be helpless and be slaughtered.
After a long time of tossing and turning, it was time for dinner, so Zhao Fu pushed Shen Li to go cook. "Come on, let's go cook. Tian Tian has to get up early tomorrow morning to go out."
At the same time, he turned around and smiled at Jiang Tian.
Jiang Tian always felt that her grandmother knew something, but it was not something she should know. Thinking about this, she felt a headache. Forget it, she would just fight against the enemy with her own army and cover the water with earth. Anyway, it seemed that her grandmother had no intention of saying anything.
After finishing the dinner made by her grandfather, Jiang Tian couldn't help but touch her stomach and sighed, "This is life." She can only cook some simple home-cooked meals, and she can't do anything a little more complicated. It's still more comfortable to have her family around.
Because of something in the morning, Jiang Tian got up at around six o'clock. She originally wanted to make breakfast, but she didn't expect that her grandmother had gotten up early and made her fried steamed bread slices and millet porridge.
And her favorite soft-boiled eggs.
Because yesterday afternoon, the village chief announced on the radio that there was no need to go to his house to get a list, and that everyone who wanted to go out this morning should gather at the village entrance, one family at a time.
He will sign and stamp it on the spot when the time comes.
Jiang Tian was afraid that he would be too late and would not be able to catch up with the main force. It would be dangerous to go out then. The land was in such a state now and there was no signal anywhere. If something really happened, it would be too late to cry.
After she finished her meal, she took her things and put them on her body. She looked at the time, which was 7:10. She greeted her grandparents and briefly told them about the fields in the backyard.
