Lin Ru looked at the cloth bag in the old lady's hand warily, and saw her quickly opening it, revealing six pieces of neatly stacked golden yellow croakers.
"Sister, do you think this can be exchanged for some food?"
Seeing that Lin Ru didn't speak, the old lady thought it was because she was unwilling, and thought about the old man who was still lying at home. , and the little grandson, who was so hungry that only his big head was left, said shamelessly and anxiously.
"Big sister, as long as you can change it, you can give it to me, no matter how much it is."
Lin Ru knew that the old lady had misunderstood, and said loudly: "Auntie, You misunderstood. You really need to change it. This little yellow croaker is worth more than food."
"These yellow and white things cannot be used as food or drink. There are people in the family who are waiting for food to save their lives, big sister. Please kindly help me change some."
The old lady said with a sad face.
Lin Ru thought that the old lady's family background was not good, so she was so short of food.
"Auntie, let's just close the deal and there will be no returns or exchanges. Where is your home, I will send it to you soon."
Looking at the old lady like this, she probably I don’t have the energy to carry the food, so I’m helping others to the end, so I’d better send it back to her.
"Okay, big sister, take this first, and I'll wait for you at the entrance of the alley."
The old lady happily took the cloth in her hand He handed me the bag and walked briskly to the entrance of the alley to wait.
Lin Ru thought it was quite interesting to come out today, and someone even came to send money to her door.
He entered the space and put the small yellow croakers together with the others, then rested for a while and carried ten pounds of flour, ten pounds of rice, twenty pounds of corn, two rabbits, and a can of malted milk. .
With a basket full, Lin Ru went out to find the old lady to deliver the goods.
Although the entrance of the old house in front of us has lost its former glory, the inside still retains its original charm. The yard is very clean and the vegetable plot is empty. It must be because of age and lack of energy to take care of it. .
"Grandma, you are back."
A little boy with a big head and belly but a very thin body ran out, came to the old lady and shouted affectionately.
"My dear grandson, we have food today." After the old lady said to the little boy, she turned back to Lin Ru and said, "This is my grandson."
The old man's eyes were filled with distress.
"Hello, kid."
Lin Ru took out a handful of White Rabbit toffee and stuffed it into the child's hand.
"Grandma..."
The boy looked at the candy in his hand, and the desire in his eyes almost overflowed, but he still asked his grandma first. The old man taught him well.
"Auntie gave it to you, just take it and don't forget to thank me."
Old ladyIt doesn't matter how much you suffer or how tired you are, but if you suffer such a small child, you will suffer along with yourself. Seeing how greedy my grandson was, I couldn't bear to let him return it. I weighed the small yellow croaker I gave him and could just deduct it later.
"Thank you, Auntie."
The little boy carefully put the candy into his pocket, and then peeled one off. Just when Lin Ru thought he would eat it by himself, But she stuffed it into grandma's mouth, and she licked her fingers. The little remaining sweetness also made the little boy smile with crooked eyebrows.
"Grandma, do you eat it? Is it sweet?"
The old lady looked at her lovely grandson, with the corners of her eyes turning red.
"Sweet, you feed me the sweetest. Be good, go see grandpa in the house."
"Well, I will feed grandpa one too, so grandpa won't feel any pain." "Yeah."
The little boy jumped back to the house as he spoke.
"His grandfather is sick, but with our status, hey..."
The old lady turned her head and wiped her tears.
"It's a joke, big sister, just put down the food. Thank you for helping to deliver it, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to get it back."

Lin Ru put down the backpack, took out the contents, and after thinking about it, put two packs of White Rabbit toffees in. It was so difficult for their grandparents and grandchildren, and she hoped that she could help them get through this period. Hard times.
The old lady looked at what Lin Ru took out. There were so many refined grains, malted milk, and even candies. With these, the old man and his grandson could also supplement their nutrition, and she was extremely grateful. .
Recently, the old man has been having trouble swallowing those coarse grains. Now that he has refined grains, he makes noodles for dinner at night.
With this food, the two of them can live a few more days to take care of their grandson.
"Old lady, I will give you these first, and I will give you some more next time. If you give too many at once, I am afraid that others will miss you."
"Big sister , Just call me Aunt Liu. This is a lot. If you can exchange it with me, I will be very satisfied. I can't let you lose."
Lin Ru didn't say anything more after hearing this. He helped move things into the kitchen and went out.
After she came out, her mood was complicated. The description of this period in the history book was very brief. When she studied it, she felt emotional.
But when you truly become a member of this era, your feelings are complicated and the colors are mottled, which cannot be described in a single way.
As a small person, I cannot push the wheel of this era. I can do very little but a lot.
What to do if you are in a bad mood? Lin Ru decided to take a diet and headed to a state-owned hotel.
Since it was dinner time, she didn’t want to share the table with others, so she decided to pack it up and take it home alone.Enjoy delicious food and heal your wounded soul.
With food in mind, her speed back to the village was amazing, actually breaking her best record. The power of a foodie should not be underestimated.
After a simple wash, I sat on the hot Kang, eating rosy braised pork and stir-fried vegetables, paired with fragrant wood-fired rice.
Lin Ru felt that she was in a better mood. When all the plates were empty, she burped with satisfaction, feeling light and comfortable all over.
I woke up too early in the morning, basking in the warm sun, and felt drowsy all over. Lying on the kang to catch up on some sleep, it felt so comfortable.
Lin Ruzheng was sleeping in a dark place, when there was a knock on the door, which frightened her so much that she turned over and sat up.
"Lin Ru, are you there? I came to chat with you."
Zhao Fang's voice came into the door along with the knock on the door.
"Here, wait and I will open the door for you."
Lin Ru tidied her hair, put on her clothes, and went down to open the door.
Opening the door, Zhao Fang was looking at him with a gossipy expression. Lin Ru knew that there was another gossip that he was eager to share.
The two entered the house. Zhao Fang looked at the neatly tidied house with envy and thought to herself, when will she be able to have such a room.
Lin Ru greeted her and sat down on the kang, took a bowl and poured boiled water on the table, and took out some nuts to eat while listening to the gossip.
Zhao Fang felt a little embarrassed when she saw Lin Ru being so generous.
"You don't need to take these. I just came to sit with you, nothing important."
Lin Ru knew that she was embarrassed and deliberately teased her.
"Then you are being sentimental. I took it for myself, not for you."
Zhao Fang's stretched out hand was visibly awkward on the nut. Above, I don’t know where to go.
Lin Ru put a lot of nuts directly into her palm and said with a smile: "It's just for you to eat. I'm just joking with you. I can't help but amuse you."
"Haha, I knew you were not that stingy person."
Zhao Fang knew Lin Ru's character, so she ate it without any courtesy.
After eating just a few, he lowered his body, strode across the Kang table, and came over mysteriously, "You know."
Lin Ru cursed, and came again Yes, what do I know? I know. If I knew, why would I still sit here and listen to you?
He only focused on eating nuts and ignored her at all.
