Chapter 300 It turns out that he is Mr. Ning’s grandson!
Because when they arrived, it was not yet time for Wanyang Brigade to distribute grain, and they did not have any work points.
Therefore, the little food we have now is still on credit from the brigade headquarters, and the quantity is not much.
In order to survive in the future, they could only eat frugally.
So these days, everyone basically only eats two meals, and only until they are 50% full.
However, the result of skipping lunch was that my stomach started to feel nauseous in the second half of the night.
In the end, Qiao Yarui found a way. She followed the young wives in the village to learn how to identify wild vegetables, and took advantage of the lunch break to go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables.
Then in the evening, everyone can have a bowl of wild vegetable soup.
Although there was no oil or salt and it tasted bitter, at least there was food in my stomach so I didn't wake up from hunger in the middle of the night.
"Ruirui, don't go digging wild vegetables tomorrow, come back early!"
It now seemed that the people from the Wanyang Brigade were somewhat evasive in their attitude towards them, but at least they did not harbor any ill intentions.
But Qiao Shichang didn't dare to take the risk, as Qiao Yarui was just a little girl with such a status.
If she was really bullied, he couldn't even come forward to help her!
"Grandpa, don't worry about me, I'm being careful! If you're worried about me, get well soon." Qiao Yarui shook her head stubbornly.
"Hey, kid, why are you so stubborn..."
Qiao Shichang was about to persuade him again when he heard a knock on the door.
Boom boom boom!
The knock on the door was not loud, but it made everyone in the room look towards the door in fear for a moment.
It was as if there was a man-eating devil outside the door!
Qiao Yarui couldn't help it and her whole body trembled.
Qiao Shichang quickly reached out and grabbed her hand, protecting her behind him.
Everyone here has been treated inhumanely before.
Confiscating homes, criticizing and parading people through the streets...
People like them who are labeled as guilty will never have anyone come back to visit them.
So the moment there was a knock on the door, almost everyone thought of the worst case scenario.
Are the relatively peaceful days now going to be disrupted again?
What will they encounter this time?
The room was eerily quiet, with only the crackling sound of the fire in the middle as the only sound. Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and look at the door.
After a while, the knocking on the door suddenly stopped, perhaps because the person outside noticed that there was no movement in the room.
"Mr. Qiao, is he there?"
Hearing a familiar voice coming from the door, Qiao Yarui's eyes lit up. She came out from behind Qiao Shichang and was about to open the door.
"Ruirui..." Qiao Shichang was startled and wanted to pull her but failed.
Although from the noise it didn't sound like someone was looking for trouble, it was still too dangerous for a grown woman to open the door in the middle of the night.
Qiao Yarui turned around and explained, "It was Brother Ning who helped us before."
As soon as I opened the door, the tall figure standing at the door was indeed Ning Huai.
"Brother Ning, why are you here? Come in quickly."
Because the thatched house was quite low, Ning Huai had to half lower his head to walk into the door.
When Lao Song and Lao Qian saw Ning Huai holding a cloth bag and coming so late at night, they immediately tactfully said goodbye.
They actually lived next door to each other just to save firewood and generally did things together.
After all, they have supported each other along the way and have formed a deep friendship with each other.
Ning Huai first looked around.
There was a musty smell inside the thatched house due to the humidity, but other than that, it was very clean.
Although it is very simple and has nothing but a kang, it is still a shelter from wind and rain.
To be honest, the conditions in Wanyang Brigade are already very good.
At least there was no deliberate torture.
"Brother Qiao, would you like some wild vegetable soup?" Qiao Yarui stood aside somewhat awkwardly.
They really didn't have anything to serve the guests, and the only thing they could offer was this pot of wild vegetable soup.
Ning Huai shook his head. "I've already eaten. No need."
"Grandpa Ning, you may not remember me. I am Ning Hongru's grandson. You treated my grandfather before. Our whole family is very grateful to you."
It took Qiao Shichang a long time to recall that he had indeed gone to Beijing to see Mr. Ning for treatment.
But that was a few years ago. He used the light from the fire in the room to carefully look at Ning Huai's face.
He does look somewhat like Mr. Ning.
"Hey, it turns out to be Mr. Ning's grandson. Is he in good health?"
"I'm fine, don't worry."
Ning Huai said this and took out brown sugar and malted milk from the cloth bag and handed them over.
"Mr. Qiao, thanks to your miraculous healing skills, you can keep these things to replenish your body. This can be regarded as a thank you gift from our family."
"No, take it back!"
Qiao Shichang is not stupid. It has been several years since he treated Mr. Ning.
Moreover, people had paid for the medical treatment at that time, and now these things were obviously used to support him.
These are all rare and good things. The child just went to the countryside, so his family must have specially brought them for him.
He is already old, how can he have the nerve to accept things from young people.
"Mr. Qiao, your health is important, please accept it!"
"It's fate that we can come to Wanyang Brigade together. We still have a long way to go!"
"I believe that the current difficulties are temporary, and there will always be a day when we can see the light."
Qiao Shichang looked at Ning Huai's determined gaze and couldn't help but tear up.
Ever since he was accused, even his relatives and friends have been avoiding him. Ning Huai's kindness now is like a ray of sunshine in winter.
"Good boy, good boy!"
Ning Huai thought of something and said, "By the way, Mr. Qiao, how are you injured?"
Qiao Shichang shook his head. "My health is fine. I'll be fine after some rest. Don't worry."
"When I feel better, I can go up the mountain to find herbs by myself. It's okay."
After hearing this, Ning Huai felt relieved.
Whether it was because of the fact that Qiao Shichang had previously treated his grandfather or because of his own medical skills, Ning Huai didn't want anything to happen to him.
To be honest, in addition to this, the reason why Ning Huai helped Qiao Shichang was because he thought of Old Man Ning.
If it weren’t for this critical moment, Ning Hongru had just developed a high-yield fertilizer.
Perhaps the Ning family’s fate will be worse than that of the Qiao family.
"By the way, if there's anything you need, just let me know."
Ning Huai saw the wild vegetable soup on the table out of the corner of his eye and frowned.
Before he came here, he had thought that there might not be enough food here.
But he really didn't have much food. As for the food prepared by the Shen family, it would be okay for him to give some to Jiang Zhengye, but he couldn't just give it away to others.
Of course, he was reluctant...
