Chapter 88 You're not afraid of death, so why are you afraid of living? (2/2)



He hadn't had a full meal in a long time.

One apple wasn't enough to fill his stomach, but it relieved his hunger.

Qiao Wanyue had only taken a few bites of her apple when she saw him finish it, so she took another one out of her pocket and tossed it to him.

He finished his meal in just a few bites.

He didn't feel full until he ate the fifth one.

"Come out," Qiao Wanyue said to the person in the water.

Although Gou Dan didn't understand what Qiao Wanyue meant, he still obediently walked out of the water.

The despair he had felt earlier was gone from his mind. Instead, he saw his grandparents' smiling faces in his mind, telling him to come home early for dinner, that if they sold the dried vegetables, they would be better off and could afford to buy meat.

But then, as if thinking of something, he bit his lip hard.

Qiao Wanyue looked at Gou Dan and said, "Don't do anything foolish. Apart from your family, no one will care."

"Now that you've eaten, let's get things sorted out," Qiao Wanyue said, looking at him.

Dog Egg stared blankly, "How do we solve this?"

He had thought of many solutions, but it was a dead end. Boss Yang saved him, and he died because of him.

If he doesn't repay the debt, he'll be an ingrate.

Qiao Wanyue asked, "How much money and grain have you given the Yang family over the years?"

Dog Egg really did know. It wasn't that he was being calculating; it was just that his grandparents were used to keeping accounts every time they gave him money and food.

"One thousand catties of wheat flour, one thousand two hundred catties of corn flour, one hundred catties of grain coupons, fifty catties of peach shortbread, and one thousand two hundred yuan."

Qiao Wanyue smacked her lips.

“Every year, our family would send 100 jin of grain as a New Year gift, but that was only the official gesture. Privately, whenever they saw anything we had, they would complain, and my grandparents would make me send it all over to them.”

That's all I gave away privately.

Qiao Wanyue twitched her lips.

The Yang family is truly ruthless.

Old Yang died in the 1960s, a time of famine. For the past fourteen years, they have sent him nearly 100 yuan and more than 100 jin of grain every year. How did this family of three survive?

Moreover, the Yang family also receives subsidies from Yang Lin.

commit a sin.

Yang's mother felt truly at ease taking the money and grain.

No wonder she couldn't bear to part with Gou Dan's family, it turns out it was Jin Dandan.

No one wants to gain something for nothing.

"Didn't you ever think about breaking it off?"

Dog Egg smiled bitterly, "I can't break it off. I'm already an ingrate."

He gave a wry smile.

He doesn't care if he has to work like a dog or a horse, but he can't let his grandparents suffer.

The elderly couple's health had deteriorated over the years. He didn't even tell his grandparents about the money he made from selling dried vegetables. He hid it and gave two yuan to the Yang family. Unexpectedly, they still found out that he had earned ten yuan.

Qiao Wanyue poked her head and thought for a moment.

"Dog Egg, you'd better go home quickly, your grandparents are going to hang themselves."
