To be honest, Jiang He regretted it as soon as he came out. He did not bring a penny with him, and he did not even take out the dozen yuan that his father had secretly hidden. He was wearing only patched old clothes from beginning to end. When he thought about the decent Zhongshan suit that Jiang Bao was wearing, he felt more and more disappointed with his father.
He walked on the street with his hands in his pockets, looking at the shops on both sides of the street, thinking about how to make the 500 yuan. There were delicious food and drinks in his space, so he didn't have to worry about going hungry.
But if he took those things out, things like these that were ahead of their time would easily attract the attention of others, who might report them, and he would end up in jail.
Although some uncommon items can be sold in the Pigeon Market, sometimes everyone understands each other. After all, everyone has troubles sometimes, but Jiang He dare not take the risk.
Don't think that the people in time-travel novels and dramas look so awesome that they make the supporting characters around them look stupid. If they really encountered such people in real life, they would probably be killed several times.
"Xiao He!" At this moment, a loud voice suddenly came from behind.
Jiang He turned around and saw a middle-aged man in a brown vest with a beer belly looking at him. For some reason, his eyes suddenly felt a little sour. He knew it was the remaining emotion from his father. "Uncle Liu!"
"Your father and mother are really becoming more and more unreasonable, and so are you. Can't you go find Uncle Liu and your aunt when you leave your home? You're so old already, and you still don't understand?" The middle-aged man saw Jiang He's pitiful expression and cursed the Jiang couple a thousand times in his heart.
He and his wife had been married for many years but had no children, so he particularly wanted a child. He still remembered the first time he saw Jiang He. He was very small and starved, with only a pair of big watery eyes staring at him. Even the hardest heart would soften.
"Uncle Liu, do you know?" Jiang He didn't know why, but even though the other party's words were reproachful, he could still tell that the middle-aged man in front of him cared about him.
"Who doesn't know about your family? That big mouth Niu Cuilan has said it all. Your aunt is worried about you and asked me to come out to look for you. Even though you're so old, your aunt and I still worry about you." Then he grabbed Jiang He's hand and said, "Go to your uncle's house. Your aunt cooked your favorite dishes. By the way... this is for you."
"Uncle Liu...what is this?" Jiang He's eyes became moist as he felt a thick bunch of things stuffed in his hands. He truly felt that the other party was sincere in what he said.
"As a man, there's no point in crying." Uncle Liu sighed, "Good boy, everything will be smooth sailing after you go through this. Your aunt and I have so many children, but we don't have any children. There's no point in keeping this money."
"Uncle!" Jiang He was really anxious now. It was not that he didn't have the ability to get a few hundred dollars. He felt that there was really no need for him to make his loving elders worry about him. Just as he was about to stuff the money in, he heard the door open.
"Why are you two standing at the door instead of coming in? The food is getting cold." Just when Jiang He didn't know what to say, he saw a middle-aged woman wearing a flowered cotton jacket and a headscarf come out. The woman looked delicate, but she couldn't hide the pain in her eyes.
"Aunt." Jiang He searched the memories in his mind and knew that the woman in front of him was Uncle Liu's wife, the person who brought warmth to him.
"Silly child, you haven't eaten anything after hanging around all day, have you? Come in quickly and have a good sleep after dinner. Auntie has made the bed in your room. If you have nowhere to go, you can stay here." Aunt Liu looked at the scene in front of her with heartache and cursed the Jiang couple in her heart.
She had injured her body early on, which made her infertile. After so many pregnancies, she had always wanted to have a child of her own, but it just wasn't going her way.
Jiang He was a child she liked very much the first time she met him. He was obedient and sensible, but it was a pity that he had such a pair of ugly parents.
"Okay!" Jiang He held the thick envelope in his hand, met Aunt Liu's loving eyes, and responded.
