Chapter 42 Helping the Elderly

There are not many men who are so infatuated after the end of the world, "You are a stranger recruited by Su Lao, right?" I'll go back and inquire.,Recently, you've been recruiting people with abilities to perform special missions.,You're very good.,Remember to report.,If you want to get stronger! Qiu Ai said to him.

Then he beckoned Wei Wei'an and the middle-aged man who was selling jade and walked away, leaving Huang Xiaoou who was watching them in place.

Huang Xiaoou silently thought about the words of hatred just now, "If you want to become stronger!" He secretly gritted his teeth: "I must become stronger." ”

The middle-aged man who sold jade led them to the east of the base, and at first the nearby environment was fine, and slowly the number of people began to increase, and the people who came and went were ordinary survivors, and after walking for a while, they came to a tight, temporary simple housing area.

There were old people and children, people without labor, and the injured disabled people, and the whole place was filled with a lifeless smell and a bad smell.

The middle-aged man looked at the expressions of the two of them, and smiled awkwardly: "Let me make you laugh, in fact, I didn't live here before, it was because my mother's illness suddenly worsened, I didn't go out to work for many days, and there was no food at home, so I was forced to exchange the house I lived in for some food with people, so I barely survived." ”

With that, the three of them came to a row of simple rooms and walked into the innermost room: "Here we are, this is it." ”

The middle-aged man opened the door with the key, and a smell of corruption greeted him, Qiu Ai couldn't help but wrinkle his nose, and looked around, there was only a single bed in the room, and an old man in his 60s on the bed had his eyes closed, her face was full of wrinkles, her hair was gray, and her breathing was weak, which made people feel bad when they looked at it.

There was also a tattered blanket spread on the floor, some buckets of water, some boxes that had fallen up, and in the corner was a small homemade stove with an iron basin on top.

The overall environment was quite tidy, the three of them walked in, the middle-aged man closed the door, and hurriedly came to the bed: "Mom, how are you, do you drink water?" ”

The old man woke up slowly: "Son, you're back, don't go to the stall, I don't take medicine, I'm in good health!" ”

The middle-aged man's eyes were red, "Mom, I've changed to medicine, I won't go out to set up a stall in the future, I'll try to find another job, so that we can move out of here!" ”

Qiu Ai and Wei Wei'an couldn't help but feel a little touched when they saw such a scene, she picked up her schoolbag as a cover, and took out three boxes of symptomatic medicine for high blood pressure from the space: "Can you look at these?" At that time, the market was crowded and I didn't want to give it to you, so I followed you here to take a look, do you only have these jades? ”

She put the medicine next to the bed, and the old man saw that there were other people in the room, but her eyes were blurred due to high blood pressure, so she couldn't see it really: "Girl, you gave the medicine, thank you so much, my old bones are considered to be boiled to the end, and it doesn't matter if you eat it or not, it's also my old son, I'm worried about how I will let go, leaving him alone." ”

"Mom, don't worry, you may live a long life, don't talk about that." The middle-aged man sniffed and tilted his head to the side.

"It's really troublesome for you, and I made a special trip like this, I only have these jades, they are all here, you can take them! Thank you so much. The middle-aged man handed them all the jade.

Qiu Ai looked at the house, "Big brother, you take out the bucket for water, I'll get you some ice cubes, and drink the water." ”

"Alas, alas, okay." The middle-aged man looked at Qiu Ai in surprise, stood up and emptied several buckets, and put them in front of Qiu Ai.

With a few waves, the bucket was full of ice cubes, and Qiu Ai took out some leaf cereals, coarse grain biscuits, more than a dozen packets of noodles, and even a dozen eggs from his backpack.

"When I went out shopping today, I only brought these things, you can take them to eat first, make up for the old man's body, and you yourself have to take care of your body in order to survive." Qiu Ai said and prepared to leave here.

The middle-aged man was so excited that he didn't know what to say, but he couldn't refuse, because it was too lacking: "Sister, I know that you are a powerful person, and I have nothing to thank you for. ”

"Haha, I'm not going to be the boss! Hurry up and put the food away, it doesn't feel safe here! Qiu Ai said and left here with Wei Wei'an.

Along the way, I saw many children of three or four years old hiding on the side and looking at them timidly, and some old people sat at the door with dull eyes.

In fact, this is a good treatment after the end of the world, and now there are not a large number of survivors to come to the safe base, and there is a separate temporary housing to live in, and after a while, you can only set up a tent anywhere.

Qiu Ai didn't speak all the way, today I just came to take a specific look at the situation in the base, and combined with the experience of the previous life, I will help Su Lao think of some rules and regulations suitable for the current development.

Just as she was distracted, a group of children ran at them noisily, and a short-haired teenage child in the lead broke into the sight of hatred: "Tang Tang? ”

Tang Tang and this group of children had been observing in the dark for a long time, and saw Qiu Ai carrying a bag, as if he was touching something in a mess, but his name was called out before he could act.

"How do you know what my name is?" Tang Tang asked hesitantly.

Qiu Ai couldn't help but shed tears, and went up and hugged Tang Tang in his arms: "Tang Tang! ”

In the previous life, Qiu Ai was disfigured and rescued back to the base, Li Yang asked her not to go out as much as possible, and it was best to take it in the room, but she would also occasionally let her go out to let off steam, and slip around the base.

The first time she saw Tang Tang, she was a half-dead child who was scarred and being beaten by a group of people, hiding something in her arms that she would rather die than let go, and when Qiu Ai walked up to Tang Tang with a few people who were protecting her safety, she was already dying with only one breath left.

Qiu Ai rescued her on his own initiative and scrubbed her in the house, only to find that this thin child turned out to be a girl, but she was well disguised and couldn't see it at all.

When Tang Tang woke up, he blamed Qiu Ai for why he wanted to save her and let her die, anyway, she had lived enough, Qiu Ai secretly told her that when she came here every day in the future, she would secretly give her some food and live well.

In this way, the two became good friends, Tang Tang sometimes went back to take on some tasks, earn some materials, and share them with Qiu Ai when he got particularly good, but later after Li Yang found out, he tried his best to prevent them from interacting, saying that Tang Tang was not a serious child, and he did some things like stealing chickens and dogs all day long.

One day, when people weren't paying attention, Tang Tang slipped to Qiu Ai and told her that Li Yang was not trustworthy and asked her to be careful, but at that time, Qiu Ai trusted Li Yang too much and persuaded Tang Tang not to think too much.

It's just that since then, I haven't seen Tang Tang again, and it wasn't until a long time later that I heard that she was sacrificed to the high-level and committed suicide unwilling to be humiliated.
