Chapter 8 Sending Brown Sugar to Jiang He



But he really couldn't have these things.

It took a long time for Jiang He to realize that he was still holding three warm roasted sweet potatoes in his hand.

Forget it, just eat the sweet potatoes.

He raised his hand and brought the sweet potato to his mouth, eating it in big mouthfuls. After a while, three big sweet potatoes were in his stomach.

He picked up the pound of pig heads, thought about it, cut off a small piece, repacked the rest, took it together with brown sugar, fruit and other things, and walked out into the depths of the village.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I saw an adobe wall. Half of the wall had collapsed. There was an adobe house inside and a dead old camphor tree in the yard.

The windows were covered with tattered oil paper, and the faint light shone through the mottled oil paper.

Jiang He knocked on the door, and an old man with a cane opened the door, smiled and took Jiang He's hand.

Mu Ruanruan left Jiang He's house and stood outside Jiang Lan's house for a long time in a daze before going in.

It was her first time to come to Jiang Lan's house. When Jiang Lan saw her, he realized that she was the little girl who rode the ox cart with him last time.

"So it's you."

The two chatted for a while.

After tutoring Jiang Xiaotao, she told him to go to school tomorrow. It was already getting late, so she hurried out and headed towards the educated youth dormitory.

After returning to the dormitory, she lay on the bed and didn't want to move, wondering whether Jiang He had thrown away her things.

She recalled all the clues in the original book, trying to find out his temperament, to judge his way of doing things, and then to infer how he would deal with the things she gave him.

It was fruitless. In the original book, Jiang He was just a pure paper man, a tool, who was thrown away after use, and not a single extra word was given to him.

However, he was able to help his brother and let his nephew go to school under such difficult circumstances, which shows that he is also a kind and loyal person.

In the past few days, she has asked the villagers and learned that it is not easy for Jiang Xiaotao to go to school because of his family background. At first, everyone was against it, thinking that the descendants of a traitor were not qualified to go to school.

Jiang Lan had difficulty walking and was unable to fight for it. It was Jiang He who used his connections, ran around to the village committee and the township, begged people and gave gifts everywhere, and gave things to every household in the village before people agreed to let Jiang Xiaotao go to school.

These were not mentioned in the original book. Now that she had actually entered this world, she discovered that the people in it were flesh and blood, and that life here was real and could not be summarized in a few words.

Even though he hated her so much, he didn't chase her away and was quite polite in his words. Doesn't this show that he is not a bad person?

Liao Xiaohong said this before. I think she said it because she had some contact with him.

She sat on the edge of the bed, thinking about things in her mind and muttering to herself. When she encountered a problem she couldn't figure out, she grabbed her hair and turned her beautiful hair into a mess.

I don’t know when I fell asleep. When I woke up in the morning and looked in the mirror, I burst out laughing. This hairstyle is even messier than Jiang He’s.

After fixing her hair, Mu Ruanruan was about to boil some water when she noticed something black in the crack of the door.

She thought it was a spider web, which was her biggest fear.

Not daring to do it, he put down the kettle and went next door to find Liao Xiaohong and Qi Juan.

"Spider web, no way, how long has it been since you did a thorough cleaning?" Liao Xiaohong was brave and came over with a broom.

"Where is it? I didn't see it."

"Over there, in the crack of the door, do you see it?" Mu Ruanruan pointed at the dusty pile and said to Liao Xiaohong, "Wait a moment, I'm going to go out first. There must be so many little spiders in such a big spider web."

"I thought you weren't afraid of anything. You're a brave man who dared to go up the mountain alone in the middle of the night to release the rabbit cage, but you're actually afraid of this little spider."

Mu Ruanruan ignored Liao Xiaohong's teasing. She would never put out a rabbit cage in the middle of the night. Besides, the rabbits were not stupid and could be caught by putting up a cage. If they were, everyone would have to eat rabbit meat every day.

That big rabbit cost her three points, but she couldn't say that, so Mu Ruanruan had to shut up.

After repeatedly asking Liao Xiaohong to wait for a moment, Mu Ruanruan quickly ran downstairs.

"Xiaohong, you and I are ready."

Some male educated youth also came out to watch the fun, and they all laughed when they found out that Liao Xiaohong was killing spiders for Mu Ruanruan.

"I didn't expect our Mu Zhiqing to be so timid."

"That's great! There aren't many other things in this village, but spiders are the most abundant."

"That's right, it seems that our Mu Zhiqing needs a flower protector."

Several people started to tease each other, making Mu Ruanruan blush.

After a while, Liao Xiaohong came to the corridor and looked down at her with a smile.

"Ruan Ruan, take it." She threw the gray thing down, and it happened to fall right above Mu Ruan Ruan's head.

“Ah~~”
