The eldest brother of the Guo family waited for a long time before it was his turn to speak.
After his father finished speaking, Brother Guo spoke anxiously.
"Sister, Brother Guo will remember this favor of yours. When we get better, I will definitely repay you double."
Jiang Baige really doesn't need them to pay back, so I mean no.
Someone spoke again at the door.
"Yes, we will definitely pay you back later."
As soon as Zhao Yong entered the room, he saw that the oil lamp in his father-in-law's room was lit very brightly, and heard everyone talking here. After putting down the firewood, he came over.
Jiang Baige saw Zhao Yong coming back and greeted him.
"Brother Zhao Yong, you're back."
Guo Xiaofang opened the door and let her man in.
When Jiang Baige saw so many people in the room, she realized that she had taken too little. Even if they were a little frugal, they could only last about one day.
Zhao Yong leaned against the doorway as soon as he entered the house, then said, "Sister, we are really sleepy now, and winter is about to come. If you can get cotton and food, can you help us and send some more?"
"You see, we don't have tickets. Even if we had money, we couldn't buy them back at the supply and marketing cooperative."
When Zhao Yong saw the things on the ground, he knew that Jiang Baige would definitely be able to get them again.
Jiang Baige was also trying to find a reason to send them some more, but unexpectedly Zhao Yong spoke first.
She nodded and said, "Okay, I will definitely help you."
Hearing that she agreed, the Guo family father and son in the room were shocked.
A little comrade like this can really get it, but it is difficult to get cotton and grain without tickets.
Zhao Yong knew that his father-in-law had no money, so he said to his wife.
"Xiaofang, go take out all the valuables in our house. If you want a sister to help you, how can you not pay her and let her help you first?"
Guo Xiaofang got her husband's approval and hurried to get the money.
As she walked out, she couldn't help wiping away her tears.
What she was attracted to in the first place was the man's character, and she turned out to be right.
This is all the money the family has, and he still has to use it to help his mother's family.
Jiang Baige didn't want their money, but if she didn't, it seemed unreasonable.
It's obvious that this family are all from the civil service industry. They must feel guilty about taking other people's things for free.
She might as well collect it first and send them more later.
Seeing that his brother-in-law was implicated by them and was willing to empty his family's savings to help the family get through the difficult times, Brother Guo raised his hand and patted his brother-in-law on the shoulder.
No amount of words can compare to his sincerity. This brother-in-law is no different from his own brother.
Zhao Yong always treated them as family. When he was in the Zhao family, he was ordered around like a slave by that family. That family was like leeches, eager to suck every last drop of his blood.
It was the Guo family who gave him the feeling of home. They did not complain about his family situation and were willing to marry their daughter to him.
Now he is doing these things for his family, which is what he should do.
At this time, Old Man Guo also turned over and sat up.
He sighed and looked at his son-in-law.
"Zhao Yong! Daddy is so sorry for you. You lost your job and are suffering here with us."
Zhao Yong gave a bitter smile: "Dad, what are you talking about? We are a family. We share happiness and difficulties together."
Guo Xiaofang had already taken the money. She still had about a hundred yuan and a silver lock in her hand.
When they moved out of the house, they only took their own clothes and quilts because those things were distributed by the unit.
After she came back, her house was ransacked, so she spent money to buy some daily necessities and food. Now this is all the money she has left.
He composed himself, then smiled and opened the handkerchief in his hand to show Jiang Baige.
"Sister, I still have over a hundred dollars. You can buy some food, cotton, and cloth. A quilt would be even better. It would save a lot of effort."
As she spoke, she put the handkerchief into Jiang Baige's hand.
Jiang Baige saw the stack of money and a silver lock in their hands, and guessed that they must have run out of money.
Things like silver locks were considered heirlooms at that time, and they had spent all their family savings on them.
Jiang Baige smiled at her and said, "Don't worry, sister. I'll deliver the things to you in a while."
She took out the silver lock again and prepared to return it to her.
"Sister, this is the child's longevity lock! Take it back. Since I promised to help you, I will definitely not let you suffer any loss. This money can help you send you food, cotton and quilts for the winter."
She took the silver lock in her hand and was about to hand it to Guo Xiaofang, but she couldn't help but look at the style of the silver lock.
At this time, the old items were all custom-made, and each one had a different style.
She took a look and suddenly felt that the silver lock looked very familiar.
I became curious and took it to have a closer look.
"Hey, I think I've seen a lock exactly like this one."
When Zhao Yong heard that she had seen it, he immediately straightened his back and took two steps forward to ask.
"You've seen it, are you sure?"
Jiang Baige blinked and knew where she had seen him before.
Because there was a word "Meng" on the silver lock, she was sure she had seen it before.
She didn't know what was going on, but she still took out an identical silver lock from her bag.
"Look, aren't they exactly the same?"
Zhao Yong quickly took it in his hand, and then carefully compared the two silver locks over and over again.
After seeing it clearly, his voice trembled a little.
"You can't say they're exactly the same. They come from the same family. Even the patterns are the same."
He quickly showed it to his father-in-law, "Dad, look, aren't they exactly the same?"
Seeing Zhao Yong so excited, the Guo family's father and son also squeezed over to watch.
Old Man Guo said, "Didn't you say this lock was a family heirloom?"
Zhao Yong nodded. "I heard the eldest brother of the Zhao family say that this was taken from my neck. He's always been a talker and loves to show off, so it must be true."
When he was young, he heard the eldest son of the Zhao family bragging to his younger brothers that the old lady of the Zhao family took it from him and gave it to the eldest son.
Zhao Yong always remembered this incident. One day, when the eldest son of the Zhao family took it down, he secretly took it away and found a place to bury it. It has been preserved until now.
He looked back at Jiang Baige with a confused look on his face, and his voice was trembling.
"Girl, where did you get this from?"
He now guessed that the girl in front of him might be his relative.
Seeing his eyes turn red, Jiang Baige quickly said, "This is from a grandmother I know. She asked me to keep it for her."
Old Man Guo asked, "Where is your grandmother? Who else is in her family?"
Jiang Baige saw that they were serious, and answered them in detail.
After hearing her description, Zhao Yong was not sure if she was his mother.
