Chapter 169 There is a chance to meet in the East China Sea
"Momo, you have been the one who has been supporting us since ancient times. If it weren't for you, we might have starved to death long ago..." Seeing that she brought so many things again, Qiao Ge felt uncomfortable: if the team hadn't been so stingy with their work points and food, they could at least eat until they were 40% full. Why would they need Qiao Mo, this kid, to save food from himself to support them?
"Auntie Qi, don't be sad. You'll be fine if you can get through this period." Qiao Mo comforted her, but in his heart he was cursing the leaders of the Xishan Brigade for being inhuman. They not only made them do physical labor, but also demanded their food, and they were not afraid of being struck by lightning.
"Mo Mo is right. We just need to get through this period of time." Wu Yuanxin patted her shoulder and said that he also felt there was no hope before, but Qiao Mo's arrival brought not only life-saving food, but also the courage and hope for them to survive.
Not to mention anything else, just to repay Qiao Mo's kindness, they must continue to live.
"Momo, you don't need to send so many things in the future. It's summer now and there are many wild vegetables in the fields. We can barely make ends meet. Don't starve yourself for us..." Mo Ge said to Qiao Mo.
"Auntie Qie, don't worry. Two educated youths from our educated youth camp have returned to the city. They left their food to me, so we have enough food." Qiao Mo explained to them.
"You're going to have to pay a high price for it, right? Momo, we still have some stuff here. You can find a way to exchange it for some money." Qiao Mo pulled out a gold ring from a hole in the wall and stuffed it into Qiao Mo's hand. "This is what your uncle Wu bought me when we got married. It's a little small, but it's better than nothing."
Mi Ge knew that this thing was worthless now, and she was giving it to her just as a token of love. She and Lao Wu had no daughter, so from now on, they would treat Momo as their own daughter.
"Auntie Qi, no need. This is a wedding gift from Uncle Wu. You can keep it. You don't have to buy the grain at a high price. I have a good relationship with them. We are also fellow Donghai people. They only charge the price according to the grain store..." Qiao Mo was not willing to accept their wedding token.
"Mo Mo, you should keep it. It's not safe to keep it here. Who knows, it might be searched by those people one day." Wu Yuanxin advised Qiao Mo when he saw that he was determined not to take it.
A few scoundrels in the village would come over every now and then. In order to hide things, he dug a hole behind the house two days ago and buried a broken jar in it. Except for a small amount of coarse grains such as sweet potatoes and rice, they hid the rest of the food that Qiao Mo brought in in the broken jar.
"Uncle Wu, you can hide with the grain."
"Momo, this thing is too small. If you are not careful, it will be lost. You'd better take it, otherwise it will be a pity." Mo Ge stuffed the ring into her hand.
"Then I'll keep it for you and return it to you later." Seeing that they were determined to give it to him, Qiao Mo no longer refused. He would return it to them after they returned. Anyway, he had his own space, and no one would know if he kept it.
"What's given to you is yours, Mo Mo, go back. Be careful and don't let anyone see us. Don't worry, we will be alive and well." Seeing that it was getting late, Wu Yuanxin urged Qiao Mo to leave.
"I'm leaving. I'll come see you again later." Qiao Mo also knew that it was time for her to go back, so she waved to them and strode away.
She hurried as fast as she could and finally returned to the educated youth site before seven o'clock. Tang Xinmei had already prepared the meal.
"Momo, did you send them to town?" Tang Xinmei asked in a low voice when she saw that she came back so late.
