Jiang Baige came to Chen Jiaojiao's side and after taking a closer look, she realized that they were weaving baskets.
Chen Defu knew that she wouldn't come over to play unless she had nothing to do, so he asked, "Bai Ge, are you going back? I'll let Jiaojiao look after Siyan for you, and don't worry, Aunt Meng. Your aunt and I are here, so you can go back without worry."
He guessed that Jiang Baige must have come to talk about this matter. What she was worried about was Aunt Meng next door and the dog.
Chen Jiaojiao also said: "Sister, don't worry! I will take good care of Siyan for you."
Jiang Baige smiled and said, "Siyan really needs Jiaojiao's help. I want to take Grandma Meng away. Uncle, can you open a letter of introduction for Grandma Meng? It's just about going to see a doctor."
Chen Defu stopped what he was doing and asked, "Do you want to take Aunt Meng to see a doctor?"
Jiang Baige nodded and said, "Well, I want to take her to see an eye doctor. If there is hope, it will make her life more convenient in the future."
Chen Defu looked at the girl in front of him with a complicated look. Although they were not a family, it would definitely cost money to see a doctor.
He said, "Bai Ge, I'm telling you this because we're family from now on. Have you ever thought about it? Losing your sight isn't something you can fix with just thirty or twenty bucks."
"She's an old widow, how can she afford to see him? Do you want to pay for it?"
Jiang Baige nodded seriously, "I know! Uncle, don't worry about the money. I know someone in the Shanghai hospital. I can ask her to help with a thorough checkup. It won't cost much to ask someone I know to do the job."
When Chen Defu heard this, he agreed. If he had an acquaintance, it would definitely not cost much.
Jiang Baige didn't have any acquaintances, and money was the most useful thing at this time. If there was any hope, she would definitely take Grandma Meng to see her until her eyes were healed.
Any one of Grandma Meng's treasures would be enough to please her eyes.
She went on to say, "Grandma Meng's eyesight isn't congenital, so there's definitely hope."
Seeing that she had already made up her mind, Chen Defu sighed and said, "Okay, I'll go write a letter of introduction right away. I'll wait a little longer and check it out thoroughly. Don't rush back."
He thought that if Aunt Meng's eyesight improved, it would be a good thing for their village.
Chen Jiaojiao spoke enviously only after she saw her father go into the house.
"Sister, what are you guys like?"
In order to satisfy her curiosity, Jiang Baige recalled and explained to her.
Chen Jiaojiao opened her mouth wide when she heard this, and then she was extremely envious.
Jiang Baige looked at her and said with a smile, "It's not convenient to take you back this year. Let's wait until next year! If I'm free next year, I will definitely take you."
Chen Jiaojiao said happily: "Really? That's great."
Chen Defu came out with the letter of introduction and shook his head helplessly when he heard his daughter's words.
He said to Jiang Baige, "Don't worry about her. She's a grown-up girl now and wants to go anywhere."
Chen Jiaojiao winked at her father and said, "I'm just grown up now! So I have to go."
Jiang Baige couldn't help but smile, and then said, "Uncle, I'm going home to pack my luggage first."
Chen Defu handed her the letter of introduction and sighed.
"We don't have any special products to bring back for you. We can only wait for your aunt to come back from the sugar factory and ask her to bring you some candy back for your in-laws and mother-in-law to try."
Jiang Baige smiled and nodded, "Yes, thank you uncle."
She had some candies made in the village in her space, but since this was a gift from her husband's family, she naturally had to accept it.
When she returned home, Jiang Baige thought that she would have to go back tomorrow and she had to go out in the evening.
The food she gave to the family in the Qinghe team last time should last them for two days if they eat sparingly, but it will definitely not be enough to last them until the New Year.
Grandma Meng sat awkwardly under the eaves. With her status as a woman, she wondered if the village chief could give her the letter of introduction.
Over the years, because her family was broken up and her loved ones died, the villagers sympathized with her loneliness and did not do anything to her. She gradually forgot her identity.
When Jiang Baige came back, Grandma Meng was still standing there without moving.
She said, "Grandma Meng, the letter of introduction has already been issued. It's too late for you to regret it now."
Grandma Meng breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.
"Can she really walk out of here?"
The voice that opened his mouth trembled as he asked, "Girl, what should I bring?"
Jiang Baige said, "Don't worry about it. I'll pack it up. Let's have dinner early today. I have to go out soon."
Hearing Jiang Baige's casual words that she didn't need to worry about going to the city, Grandma Meng quickly said, "Okay, I'll go cook."
She took two steps, then turned back and asked, "What about the food at home? Will we take it all with us when the time comes?"
Jiang Baige laughed and said, "That's too heavy! It's inconvenient to carry. Make a little more for dinner so you can have two meals. I'll send the rest to my aunt's house later."
After hearing what she said, Grandma Meng didn't say anything and went to cook slowly.
Jiang Baige first went to Grandma Meng's house to get a set of clothes to wear on the road. She planned to stay in the county town for a day and then buy two new sets of clothes for Grandma Meng to wear in Shanghai.
She had to take all her clothes with her. If she returned home and her clothes were changed, she would be afraid that she would not be able to enter that house.
The two of them only packed a suitcase of clothes. She didn't want to take anything else. Everything was in the space, and she could take it out from the space when the time came.
After packing her luggage, Jiang Baige went to the kitchen to prepare food.
There were a lot of rice, flour, grain, oil, and bottles and jars in their kitchen. If they left them here, they would definitely not be able to eat them when they came back after a few months. If they took them away, she felt it was unnecessary.
Although she could store the food in the space, the Chen family had little to eat, so she used the excuse that she couldn't take it away and asked them to eat it.
Seeing that Grandma Meng had already cooked a pot of rice, she put away the remaining Jiang Baige.
She went outside to find a backpack and put all the vegetables and potatoes on the ground into it. She also took down the bacon hanging on the wall.
She took some of the salted fish, bacon and sausages in her space. The Chinese New Year was coming soon and the village would slaughter pigs, so she didn't take any fresh meat.
There was so much food in the space, but she didn't dare take it out.
He looked at the food in the backpack, moved all the bottles and jars on the stove into it, took a look, and thought, this is it for now.
When she sent her daughter-in-law to the next door, Zhou Xiuying also came back. When she heard that her daughter-in-law was going back to her hometown, she was a little worried.
My son is not at home, and when he comes back his wife is gone, I don’t know how sad he will be.
Zhou Xiuying was stunned and didn't hear anything Jiang Baige said to her.
Chen Jiaojiao came in from outside and nodded continuously when she heard her words.
"Yes, sister, I understand."
Jiang Baige said to Chen Jiaojiao again, "I'll leave Siyan in your care."
