Chapter 201 Meeting Again
Yaya showed an unwilling look on her face, but in the end she still put on a sad face and reluctantly handed the two kilograms of black crystal to Su Ding.

"Forget it." Su Ding shook his head and said, "I'll give you these two kilograms of black crystal."

He doesn't need these two kilograms of black crystal.

As long as he digs a little in the wild, he will find more than just this little bit.

If these two children didn't have these two kilograms of black crystal, they might have starved to death.

"Wait!" At this moment, a voice came from a distance.

Su Ding heard the sound and looked over, and saw two people staggering towards him from a distance.

He was slightly surprised to see these two people.

Because he had met these two people before.

That man was one of the people bewitched by the skinned girl.

And the woman was the one who rushed out when the man was bewitched.

He had a deep impression of these two people.

"We can provide food and accommodation here, but we don't need your black crystal!" the woman said quickly.

Then, she snatched the black crystal from Yaya's hand and put it in Su Ding's hand.

Obviously, she heard Su Ding's conversation from afar.

Su Ding looked at the other party in surprise, pondered for a moment, and roughly understood what was going on.

I guess this woman noticed me when I was killing that monster.

The other party wanted to repay the favor of saving the other two.

"No need, just take this black crystal. Just help me prepare something better when the time comes." Su Ding shook his head and handed the black crystal to the other party.

Hearing this, the woman showed a hint of hesitation on her face, but she still took the black crystal from Su Ding's hand and nodded seriously, saying, "Okay, I'll go prepare it right away."

Su Ding nodded slightly and walked into the room.

At this time, the little boy did not stop anymore.

As he entered the room, the man immediately walked up to the woman and asked in confusion, "Yingniang, why did you let him into our house?"

I know my wife very well and she has always been very cautious.

So he couldn't understand why his wife would let strangers into their home.

"Don't worry about it, just focus on making the food." Ying Niang glared at the man and stuffed the black crystal into his hand. "And what's more! I haven't settled the score with you for today yet! Just wait and see!"

Hearing her words, the man felt a little embarrassed. He didn't dare to say anything more and went straight to prepare the meal.

Su Ding entered the house and found that this family was really poor.

Like his predecessor, even though his parents were dead, he still lived well and had some food.

As for the family in front of me, a glance at the room showed that it was full of old things that looked tattered.

Su Ding was silent for a moment.

To be honest, he still underestimated the living standards of many people in this world.

Most people in this world actually live in extreme poverty.

"You sit here. My parents will be here soon." The little boy wiped an old chair clean with a rag, brought it to Su Ding, and said seriously.

"Well, thank you." Su Ding nodded.

Then, he paused and asked, "What's the approximate price for black crystal in exchange for earth and rice here?"

Hearing his words, the little boy looked at him doubtfully, then thought for a moment and said, "One pound of black crystal, three and a half pounds of earth and rice."

"Three and a half pounds?" Su Ding was slightly stunned and his brows immediately frowned.

This price is a bit too shocking.

You know, over there, one pound of black crystal can be exchanged for five pounds of earth and rice.

Moreover, even in that situation, there are still many people who cannot survive.

At this time, Su Ding suddenly understood why this family had such a hard life.

"Are you coming from outside?" The little boy thought of something and asked Su Dingdao.

Su Ding paused and nodded.

"How's it out there? Is it better than here? You just asked about the price of black crystal for rice. Can you exchange black crystal for more rice out there?" The little boy stared at Su Ding and asked a series of questions. "Xiaohui, don't disturb the guests." At this moment, Yingniang walked in, interrupting the little boy's question, and then looked at Su Ding embarrassedly, "Sorry, kid, you don't understand."

"No." Su Ding shook his head.

How could this child be so ignorant? He must be too sensible.

When I asked to have dinner here, the other party showed sufficient vigilance.

Later, when the other person's mother decided to let him in, the other person showed enthusiasm again.

Just now, the other party had already been talking to him and was considering his own family.

It is not easy to achieve this at the age of eleven or twelve.

"Please wait a moment, my husband went to buy groceries and will be back soon." Yingniang said a little restrainedly.

Su Ding nodded and said no more.

Then, he thought for a moment and asked, "Is this your first time mining?"

Yingniang was slightly stunned when she heard this, then nodded quickly, "Yes, this is our first time."

A trace of bitterness appeared on her face, and she touched her belly. "There's no other way. If I don't scavenge at dawn, I'm afraid my family won't be able to survive."

Su Ding took a look at her belly and immediately understood something.

This is pregnant again.

Ordinary people have a hard time in this world.

As for why the other party didn't go to other camps, he could probably imagine it.

One is that other camps are still wary of outsiders and will exclude them.

Another one is the tacit understanding between some cities.

They have no preferential policies for outsiders, and may even suppress them implicitly.

After all, no one wants to offend other cities because of some population.

Su Ding clenched his fists slightly, and then released them.

Sometimes, he really wanted to be a deaf man who could not hear anything, a blind man who could not see anything, and a clay sculpture without any emotions in his heart.

In this way, he can live his life well and live a peaceful and comfortable life.

But, he is not.

"Is there anything I can do?" Su Ding was silent for a moment, and then stopped thinking about it.

There are some things that you can only do after you become stronger.

Soon, the man came back from outside and started cooking.

The food tasted ordinary, but Su Ding could tell from the other party's cautious attitude that the other party had put a lot of effort into it.

"I have arranged a house for you here. You can live in it when the time comes. I hope you don't mind." Yingniang said to Su Ding.

Su Ding nodded, "It's okay."

He had to stay there, after all, his job was to get three meals a day.

And during daylight hours, there are only two hours, which is not enough for three meals.

Then, Su Ding followed Yingniang into a room.

This room is obviously the best one. Although the bedding is a bit old, there are traces of washing on the surface, which is very good.

The other party was obviously very attentive.

However, Su Ding thought about the family's situation and said to Yingniang, "You can take this quilt. I prefer to use my own quilt. I'm not used to using other people's quilts."

As he said this, he patted his bag.

"Ah?" Yingniang was stunned, then nodded and took the quilt to another room.

Her man watched from the side, his eyes twitching.

To be honest, if he didn't trust his wife's character, he would also trust their relationship of many years.

He would think that his wife had fallen in love with the other man.
