Chapter 80 Looking for Helpers
Early the next morning, Li Meng, Wu Ruirui and Li Laidi boarded the ox cart to the town, and arrived in the town after a shaky ride.
He sent the letter first, and then took the two people straight to the black market.
It was Li Lai Di's first time to come to the black market in town, and he was a little nervous. Wu Ruirui wanted to laugh when he saw Lai Di's sister's expression. He wondered if he was also so nervous when he first came here, and he couldn't even look around.
"Sister Laidi, don't be nervous. Just follow Mengmeng. If you need anything, let Mengmeng take us to buy it. Be natural and don't be so nervous," Wu Ruirui whispered to Li Laidi.
"I don't want to be nervous either. Look at the people at the door, they all look ferocious," Li Laidi said in a low voice.
Then, she saw the two men who seemed ferocious before nodding at Li Meng with a smile. They looked very familiar and her jaw dropped.
Li Meng led two people into Sister Hong's office area. When they knocked on the door, a runner opened it. When he saw it was Li Meng, he directly called Sister Hong out.
"Sister, you are here. The school is on holiday now. You can do my job without worry. We are waiting here." As Honglian appeared, Li Laidi's eyes widened. This woman was dressed so beautifully, with real fur. She was really rich. Today he was enlightened.
"Sister Hong, aren't I here? Don't worry, I'm here to do this. I also have something I want to trouble you with. Look, this is the list I wrote. Can you get it?" After saying that, he handed all the things written in the small bag last night to Sister Hong for her to review.
Although there is no shortage of these things in her space mall, she still has to find a way out, right?
Honglian looked at what Li Meng had written, all of which were about furniture, beds and the like, which were things she could easily get, so she generously said that she would definitely get them done for her.
"Sister Hong, please send it to this address when the time comes. Please help me hire someone to transport it, and we will calculate the cost separately then." Li Meng still prefers to discuss things in advance so that there will be no conflicts in the future.
"Okay, that's easy. I'll send it to you in three days at the latest," Honglian promised.
"Okay, I'll leave first. I'll come to see you tomorrow after I finish my work." Li Meng blinked and said, indicating that it would be like that for now. After all, there were two people behind and it was difficult to explain in detail.
Honglian was a smart person and immediately understood what Li Meng meant. She sent them out with a smile and asked someone to take Li Meng and the other two to the black market for a stroll.
Li Laidi came in in a daze and walked out in a daze.
"Mengmeng, you are so amazing. How do you know people in the black market? It seems that you are a manager?" Li Laidi looked like a curious baby.
"It's a long story. In short, she and I are good friends. If you need anything in the future, you can come to me and I will buy it for you. It's even cheaper if you don't need a ticket," Li Meng said mysteriously to Li Laidi.
"Hehe, that's great, thank you very much," Li Laidi kept thanking him.
At noon, she took the two of them to a state-owned restaurant for lunch, and then let them go back on the ox cart first. She wanted to go to the house in the town to see the old man and Xiaodouzi.
After knocking on the door, Xiaodouzi opened it. Seeing that it was Li Meng, he hugged Li Meng excitedly.
"Sister Mengmeng, you're here. Hehe, I missed you so much," Xiaodouzi said coquettishly.
I pinched Xiaodouzi’s slightly chubby face. He was so cute and it felt so good to hold.
"Grandpa, are you home?" Li Meng handed the packed things in his hand to Xiaodouzi, motioning him to put them in the kitchen.
"Grandpa is out and will be back soon." Xiaodouzi obediently poured a glass of water for Li Meng.
"Sister Mengmeng, let me tell you something. God has really opened his eyes. The person who bullied us last time broke his leg and will never bully us again." After saying this, Xiaodouzi bowed to the sky. It looks like God blesses us.
"That's good. Xiaodouzi, remember, people should not do bad things. Sooner or later there will be retribution. You must be an upright and kind person. Do you understand?" Li Meng touched Xiaodouzi's head and persuaded him.
"Well said, girl," the old man walked in with a chicken in his hand.
"Grandpa, you're back. How are you? The weather is cold these days, so you must take good care of yourself. I'm counting on you." Li Meng walked up and said with a smile.
She took out the medicine from the small bag and handed it to the old man. "This is for daily maintenance. Taking two pills a day can strengthen your body. Old man, don't forget to take it." Li Meng took out the prepared vitamins and calcium tablets and handed them to the old man.
"Girl, you are still thinking of me," the old man looked touched and very happy. This girl has been of great help to the grandfather and grandson. If it weren't for her, he would definitely not have survived this winter.
Then Li Meng told the old man what he wanted to do. After all, just him and Xiaodouzi were not enough. Besides, Xiaodouzi was still a child. Would he be of any use if anything happened? I will send Xiaodouzi to school when spring comes. It is most important for children to go to school.
"Now that you put it that way, I do have two candidates. Let me tell you. What do you think?" The old man knew that Li Meng wanted to find two people so that he could better watch over the goods, and he couldn't help but think of the two brothers who had helped him before.
The older brother came back from the battlefield and injured one of his eyes. The younger brother is usually well-mannered and a book lover. In the past few years, the college entrance examination has not been resumed yet, so he has to take some temporary work from time to time with his brother to make a living. Their lives are not that good. Their parents are gone, and these two depend on each other.
They had received subsidies before, but they were all taken away by the unscrupulous uncle. Their own house was also occupied, and the two brothers were forced to live in a small kitchen. Even so, the two of them never complained. They always helped those who were weaker than them and never cared about gains and losses. They are very good people.
When Li Meng heard that the old man had approved of the person, she thought about meeting him first. The old man hurriedly went to call people, and also told Xiao Douzi to kill the chicken so that they could eat together in the evening.
After receiving his grandfather's instructions, Xiaodouzi hurriedly went to boil water and kill a chicken. While Xiaodouzi was busy in the house, Li Meng went to an empty alley and asked Dandan to bring out the prepared pork and some braised dishes.
When she walked back to the house, she saw the old man calling people back. Li Meng handed the things in her hand to Xiaodouzi and told him to cut them all out and she would do it later.
Xiaodouzi took it happily and started working according to Li Meng's instructions.
The days are becoming more and more hopeful. Grandpa is no longer as listless as before and has no energy to do anything. His health is getting better and better. All this is thanks to meeting Sister Mengmeng, who is like a ray of light shining into his life.
