Chapter 94 Touched

Jiang Xingye was not greedy for the box of braised pork. He just poured some soup to soak the rice and did not touch a single piece of meat, because he wanted to leave it for Xu Qinghuan to eat.

But Xu Qinghuan didn't know that the old man wanted the box of braised pork just now, and Xu Qinghuan saw that he was reluctant to give it to the old man, so he didn't let him give it to the old man.

She was protecting him, and with this realization, how could Jiang Xingye not be happy?

Soon, the supply and marketing cooperative arrived.

Xu Qinghuan went in carrying a backpack and used her industrial tickets to buy two kilograms of rice, two kilograms of noodles, and one kilogram of brown sugar. She happened to see an iron pot for sale, so she spent two industrial tickets, thirteen yuan, to buy an iron pot and four bowls.

Not seeing any sewing machines for sale, Xu Qinghuan asked the counter attendant, "Comrade, don't you have any sewing machines for sale?"

"We don't have it in stock. If you want it, we can get one from the city. A sewing machine costs 170 yuan, and you need a ticket for a sewing machine. Do you want one? It's in high demand. Are you buying it for your dowry?" The waiter was quite gossipy.

"Yes!" Xu Qinghuan handed over the money and the other party left her a receipt and agreed to pick it up in two weeks.

Jiang Xingye was waiting for her at the door.

"Where are we going now?" Jiang Xingye had already consciously acted as the driver.

Xu Qinghuan couldn't help but laugh, and got into the car without any hesitation. "It's in a small alley next to the state-owned restaurant. I don't even know what it's called. I'll know which one it is when you get there."

"Yeah." Jiang Xingye's voice was exceptionally gentle. "The road ahead is difficult to walk on. Be careful."

The road over there was bumpy, and although Jiang Xingye was very careful, it was still inevitably bumpy. Xu Qinghuan bumped straight into him, and while being a little panicked, she hugged Jiang Xingye's slender waist with her hands.

Xu Qinghuan herself was a little embarrassed, but the abdominal muscles under her palms were hard and warm, with distinct blocks and full of strength, and her hand touched them involuntarily.

Jiang Xingye was completely stunned, feeling a burning sensation in his lower abdomen. He had to use all his strength to suppress the throbbing sensation. He rode the bike shakily on the road ahead, and only stopped like a puppet when Xu Qinghuan shouted to stop.

The redness spread all the way down to his neck.

Xu Qinghuan got out of the car and looked at him, looking like a cooked lobster.

He didn't dare look at her, but Xu Qinghuan was staring at him. Jiang Xingye looked back at her uncomfortably, his eyes full of resentment, like a bullied young wife.

Xu Qinghuan was also a little embarrassed. It might be understandable that she hugged his waist tightly, but touching his abdominal muscles was unacceptable no matter how she explained it.

And that touch was quite heavy, rubbing back and forth.

Then he simply stopped explaining. Xu Qinghuan pretended to be calm, cleared his throat, and said without looking away, "Wait for me, I'll be back soon."

"Hmm!" Jiang Xingye lowered his head and kicked the stone on the ground with his toes.

Xu Qinghuan turned and ran away, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He lowered his head to look at his waist and abdomen, and his gaze lingered on the right abdomen that Xu Qinghuan touched for a long time.

Even when he was the hungriest, seeing a large piece of pork belly would not make him happier than this.

If it wasn't growing on his own body, he would have wanted to cut it off and offer it as a sacrifice, prostrating himself in worship every day.

He was so excited that he looked like a fool.

Xu Qinghuan came to Ren's house again. When she knocked on the door, she took out five kilograms of rice and five kilograms of noodles, two kilograms of white sugar, half a kilogram of buns, a lunch box of braised pork, and a pheasant from the space.

The livestock in the space look exactly the same as those outside, but they taste much better. In her previous life, she often caught rabbits and pheasants from the space to eat. They were delicious and replenished her spiritual energy.

No one came to open the door for a long time. Xu Qinghuan called out "Ren Jingmo" and only then heard heavy and slow footsteps coming from the yard.

It was Old Man Ren who opened the door. He was very surprised to see Xu Qinghuan, "Why are you here?"

Seeing that he looked much better, Xu Qinghuan pushed the door open and squeezed in. "I came whenever I wanted."

Ren Shanglu didn't chase her away. He closed the door and followed her into the house. "Hurry up and leave. Don't stay here."

In the room, Ren Jingmo, who was originally terrified, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xu Qinghuan, and ran towards Xu Qinghuan, "Sister, why are you here?" This sister was very nice. She left rice, flour and meat buns for them last time. He liked this sister very much.

Xu Qinghuan grabbed a handful of White Rabbit candies and gave them to Ren Jingmo. Ren Jingmo's hands trembled for a moment, and he took them with both hands and asked uncertainly, "Sister, is this for me?"

"If not you, who else should I give it to? Eat it!" Xu Qinghuan said.

Ren Jingmo looked up at his grandfather, and when his grandfather nodded, he happily took it, carefully peeled one and put it in his mouth. The sweet feeling filled his mouth, and he felt so happy that he was about to smoke.

Xu Qinghuan put down the backpack and said, "I went to the supply and marketing cooperative late today and didn't buy any meat. I only brought some rice and flour."

Ren Shanglu saw her taking things out one by one, and tears slowly blurred his eyes.

Ren Jingmo was surprised to see that she had also taken out a pot, "Sister, is this pot for us too?"

"Yes!" Xu Qinghuan was very happy to see some light in his eyes. "It will be easier for you to cook with a pot."

She handed the buns and braised pork to Ren Jingmo and said, "Go and finish eating with grandpa. It's still hot. It will get cold if you leave it out for a while."

She bought the braised pork and meat buns at a state-owned restaurant in Shen City. They were very hot when she put them in, and they are still very hot now.

The grandfather and grandson had no doubts and thought she bought it at the state-owned restaurant here.

Ren Jingmo opened the lunch box and was filled with the rich aroma of meat. His heart beat very fast and he looked at Xu Qinghuan with sparkling eyes. "Sister, I'm so happy. Thank you!"

"You're welcome. Just eat. I'll bring you more later." She asked Ren Shanglu, "Grandpa, I'll unload these things here first. Please find a way to hide them. I'll think of a way to help prevent those people from bullying you later."

"None of your business!" the old man said sternly, "Just take care of yourself."

Xu Qinghuan knew that he was afraid of implicating her. If they had not met, it would be fine. But since they had met, this person was her mentor's teacher, her master's master. How could she just watch him die and leave him alone?

Xu Qinghuan gently stroked Ren Jingmo's shoulder, but the child gasped.

Xu Qinghuan's hand paused. She tore off the child's clothes. The child was skinny and bony, with scars all over his back and shoulders. The scars were as wide as the tip of a finger, bloody and deep enough to see the bones.

A wave of anger welled up in her. Her eyes were cold, and her voice was as chilly as the wind blowing through the coldest days of winter. "Who did it? Those people did it?"

Ren Shanglu turned his eyes away, with anger in his eyes and tears on his face.

Ren Jingmo turned around and held Xu Qinghuan's hand, "Sister, I don't feel any pain."

Xu Qinghuan was trembling all over. She held Ren Jingmo's hand tightly, tears streaming down her face. She squatted down and hugged Ren Jingmo in her arms. Her tears wet the child's clothes.

Xu Qinghuan carefully took off the child's clothes, took out a box of ointment from the space, and gently applied it on the child's back.

These are all new injuries, probably sustained today.

If the medicine is not taken in time, the child will definitely have a high fever at night. The wound area is so large that if it gets infected, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Although it is not known whether Ren Jingmo died because of this, the possibility of infection is very high in such hot weather.

"Sister, this ointment feels so comfortable after applying it!" Ren Jingmo couldn't help but say.

After Xu Qinghuan finished applying the ointment, he handed the ointment and two antipyretic pills to Ren Shanglu. "These are antipyretic pills. If you have a fever at night, give one to Jing Mo first. I'll come back to check on you tomorrow."

Ren Shanglu said, "No need to come over."

He is the doctor himself, and if he has the medicine, he doesn't need anyone else.
