"A Ning?" A surprised voice sounded, and Zhang Chao in the room hurried out and hugged Jiang Ning, "Finally I see you. We went to Jinrong Community as soon as we returned to Fengcheng, but it was already in ruins. I thought something happened to you and Brother Shen.
Hey, where's Brother Shen?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Jiang Ning felt relieved.
It’s great that Zhang Chao’s funny personality is still there.
However, the appearance has changed a lot.
Rougher, more mature appearance.
The biggest difference between him and Lu Yu and Zheng Weili is that there is still light in his eyes.
I guess it's because he has been hurt so much by the aunties, so his heart has become extremely strong. Especially after being nourished by love, he can get up quickly even if he falls down repeatedly.
Jiang Ning smiled, "He has something to do at home, he will come next time."
"Come, let me introduce you." Zhang Chao naturally put his arm around his sister's waist. "Aning, this is my wife Ding Qi. Aqi, this is the Aning we often mention. The three of us grew up wearing the same pants."
Not to mention, even though it’s a relationship between an older woman and a younger man, they are quite compatible in terms of appearance and height when standing together.
Ding Qi is not a beauty. She has a serious face and a fierce aura that makes people stay away from her, but she has a good figure.
After three years of hard work, Zhang Chao has become stronger in appearance. He no longer looks frail when he stands and his face is filled with a confident smile.
"Sister Aqi." Jiang Ning greeted with a smile, then punched Zhang Chao, "Congratulations, you finally found your home."
It was just a break from the shift today. Lu Yu came out and smoothed her messy hair with her hand, "Aning."
Jiang Ning entered the room and patted him gently, "How is Weili?"
Zheng Weili cleared a place for her to sit, "He gives me a massage every two hours, it makes me feel much more comfortable."
The room smelled of cigarettes and medicine, probably because I had taken medicine in the morning.
Seeing that she was in better spirits, Jiang Ning was in a good mood as well.
Three years after the natural disaster, they are both still alive and able to meet again. This is something worth celebrating.
After the greetings, Jiang Ning briefly told Lu Yu and Zhang Chao about what happened after they separated. "Huo Yishen and I went to the seaside to do business and sold some medicines. We saved enough money to buy a house in Guangming New City."
Brothers should settle accounts clearly. She took out the account book from her bag and said, "When you left, you left a batch of food and medicine. The food is not easy to store, so we ate it all. Some of the medicines that were about to expire were also sold.
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are so precious that I keep them and don’t want to sell them. You can still take expired drugs, but I can’t guarantee their effectiveness.”
Then he took out a bag of medicine from his bag and said, "The rest are all here, you can divide them up among yourselves."
She took out all the dried seafood and crushed corn kernels. "I didn't dare to bring too much here because I was afraid it might be unsafe here. You can ask me for more when you run out, or you can give them to you all at once. Which method is safer?"
Then, he handed the account book to Zhang Chao and said, "I have recorded what the expired medicines were exchanged for. You can exchange them for food or medicines, or whatever you need. I can find someone to exchange them for you."
When they were on the 18th floor, Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen were aware of how well they cared for 1803.
The food and medicine they left behind were said to be preserved for 1803, but in fact they had no intention of returning.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Ning not only kept it for them, but also gave it away selflessly.
For a moment, the three of them felt extremely complicated, especially Zheng Weili.
After two years of separation, I have seen too much evil in human nature. People would fight to the death for a moldy steamed bun, especially my brother and sister-in-law who are worse than pigs and dogs...
But Jiang Ning remained unchanged and was still willing to take care of them.
Zheng Weili's eyes were sore and she turned away to look out the window.
Who doesn't want the medicine? But after considering it, Zhang Chao pushed it back, "Aning, these were originally meant for you and Brother Shen. I just made up this excuse because I was afraid you wouldn't accept them.
It is true that we are in a bad situation now, but we cannot go back on our word to you."
He can be mean to others, and even dare to rob with a knife, but he cannot break his promise to Jiang Ning. This is the bottom line of friendship.
Lu Yu also wanted it, and could use it to cure Zheng Weili's illness, but... thinking of the past, he couldn't help but say it out loud.
"Who are we to whom?" Since Jiang Ning had taken it out, he was not just pretending. "When we went to look for medicine, Huo Yishen and I both had a hand in it. We don't need you. Those who need treatment can get treatment, and those who need to exchange for supplies to improve their lives can do so. Stop being so fussy. Don't be a real man."
The two looked at each other, and Zhang Chao spoke up, "Okay, then we won't be polite to you. When we make money in the future, you will definitely get a share."
Jiang Ning continued to take things out of his bag, giving herbal medicine to Zheng Weili and electronic products to the two families to pass the time.
Zheng Weili took out a box of antipyretic medicine and said, "Aning, this medicine is used to pay for the herbs you gave me. If it's not enough, I'll buy it on credit first."
It is true that the two families have fallen on hard times, but their personalities have not changed much from before.
"Okay, I won't be polite with you." Jiang Ning accepted it happily. "Take a look at the account book. If you need anything, let me know in advance. I will find a way to get it when the time comes."
Even though they are so poor that they have holes in their pants, security patrolmen can still earn money. It's just that they have to deal with criminals and robbers, so the risks are extremely high.
As long as Zheng Weili's illness is cured, the two families may not become rich, but they will definitely have no problem having enough food and clothing.
This is also the reason why they do not want to be police officers and insist on becoming security patrolmen.
With their skills, it is no problem for them to be police officers, but being a police officer is not just a job, it is also a responsibility.
When they put on that uniform, they would feel guilty when they took things that didn't belong to them, but patrolmen wouldn't feel that way.
Jiang Ning gave Zheng Weili acupuncture, chatted with Zhang Chao and Lu Yu while waiting, and occasionally glanced at Ding Qi.
She was like a lonely wolf, isolated from the world and sitting quietly by the side without saying a word. She seemed very out of place, yet not at all uncomfortable.
Jiang Ning could see that this was a sister with a strong heart, and she felt that Zhang Chao was more like a passer-by or a resting place to her.
It’s probably not that easy to win my sister’s heart.
Although he looked at the notice saying "No Trespassing", he should not be the kind of person who cares about gains and losses, otherwise why would he be willing to give out supplies in exchange for medicine to treat Zheng Weili's illness?
This shows that she can get along well with the three of them.
After the acupuncture was completed, Lu Yu invited Jiang Ning to have lunch with him, but was rejected.
"It's inconvenient for you to cook here. You have to be careful about others smelling the porridge when you cook it. One day when you are free, come to my house and we can have a good gathering like we used to."
Jiang Ning stood up and left, and suddenly thought of something, "Is your intercom still there?"
While out scavenging, the three men encountered a robbery and lost the walkie-talkie given by Huo Yishen during the fight.
However, Ding Qi still had one in his hand.
Jiang Ning was very happy to learn that her walkie-talkie had an effective communication range of 10 kilometers. She told her home communication channel and said, "Please contact me if you have anything to say."
Especially Zheng Weili, if you feel unwell, you should tell her in time and don’t keep everything in your heart.
He brought a solar charger with him, but Jiang Ning saw one in Zhang Chao's room, so he didn't take it out.
