Chapter 243: The Price of the Gift

Bowls of steaming broth go down the belly,

Qin was satisfied and lay down again, and the cold hands and feet all over her body also improved.

The human body naturally produces calories after eating.

Moreover, the beef soup is very supplemental, and An Jie doesn't know exactly what to supplement, anyway, it is still very useful for treating colds.

And Jack eats the remaining warm broth and bread himself after Jean has finished eating.

The appetite seems to be quite big, but the body has no meat to eat for a long time.

Some are skinny, but the power hidden in their bodies is still not to be underestimated.

"Hiccup~ I'm so full!"

Jack put down the pot and said with a smile on his face.

Not even a little bit of meat foam was left, all of it was eaten, seeing this, An Jie shrugged his shoulders and responded lightly:

"It's good to be full, and if I'm not full, I don't want to make another pot."

"Thanks, this is back for you."

Hearing this, Jack handed the iron pot to him and said.

His face is also free of the previous unhappiness with An Jie, and he also knows that he does not forget to dig wells when drinking water~

"Thank you, Mr. Anjie."

Qindi, who was lying on the bed, smiled softly and thanked An Jie.

For the mother and son, the affection of this pot of broth is very heavy.

"It's just a trivial matter, you brushed the pot, do you still want me to wash it?"

An Jie waved his hand and hugged his chest and teased Jack.

You can't eat him and let him brush the pot, right? There is no reason to speak of~ And Jack ran out of the bedroom without saying a word,

I went to the kitchen to brush the pot......

Jean taught very well, maybe because of the single-parent family, Jack listened to her very much.

After seeing Jack leave,

An Jie got up and came to the bedside, picked up a bottle of medicine on the bedside table, looked at it and asked:

"Inhaled sprays, do you have asthma?"

"Yes...... Hereditary disease, ahem, is passed down in my family. ”

"Thankfully, my son didn't inherit the disease, so at least I don't have to worry about him being like me...... Ahem. ”

Jean nodded while lying on the bed and couldn't help coughing.

An Jie understood at this time, this is why the mother and son are poor,

There is only one disease in this world, the disease of poverty......

Fortunately, asthma is not a serious disease, as long as it does not reach the point of seriousness, relying on medication can alleviate the symptoms caused by the disease.

But it is difficult to afford to buy often for a family that is not wealthy.

It's no wonder that Jack, a half-grown child, actually went to deliver milk to earn a salary.

"Looks like he's fine, you can come to me if you need help,"

"If you don't have food to eat, you can eat with me."

"But I still have a prerequisite, relatively, let him usually help me do some housework to settle out, so that I don't feel a loss."

An Jie put down the medicine and returned to the chair and sat down.

The moment he entered the bedroom, judging by the surprised expression on Jean's face,

If it weren't for Jack, I'm afraid this woman wouldn't have thought of asking him for help at all, trying to survive this sudden cold.

If it's a man, it's not a big problem,

But the piano itself has a disease, if you survive this cold,

I'm afraid that my health will get worse and worse in the future.

Anjie could see that this woman didn't want to ask for help or ask for charity, so it would be more acceptable to have Jack as a bridge.

Knock knock ~ knock knock ~

"I'm done! The pot is for you and it is very clean! ”

Jack quickly ran upstairs with the pot in his arms and handed it to him.

It looks like he's currying favor with An Jie,

"That's pretty good, huh, careful enough, isn't it? Want to eat another pot at noon? ”

An Jie took the pot and teased again.

Jack's face suddenly turned red, and his inner thoughts were guessed to be like this, after all, children are not as cheeky as adults.

The right hand kept scratching the back of his head,

It's embarrassing......

"Okay, that's it, if you still want to eat, come and knock on the door,"

"It's only when you have a meal, and I'll throw you out at other times~ I'll go home first, you take good care of your mother."

With that, An Jie got up and walked out.

The mother and son also watched him leave, the icing on the cake is never as good as sending charcoal in the snow.

Although he didn't send charcoal, a pot of hot soup was not much different, at least in the hearts of Jean and Jack, An Jie was a good person,

And a few hours later, at lunchtime, An Jie's door really knocked,

It's still Jack, the hot beef soup makes it hard for him to refuse.

An Jie was not stingy and made a pot of soup again,

And he took some bread and asked him to take it back to eat with his mother, and he made it clear to Jack the price to be paid.

And Jack also said that there was no problem, just brushing the pots and bowls~

The agreement was reached, and in the next few days,

Every time Anjie arrived, Jack would come to his door and knock on the door, and go back with a pot full of hot soup to eat with Jean.

A piece of beef is not expensive, for An Jie, it is just a drop in the bucket.

The reason why he is so generous is that he plans to knock Wesker in the future, and it is also for the sake of killing the other party in the future battle with Wesker, so that Jack will not be his enemy in this regard.

In general, he also has a purpose,

It is not done for nothing, but in the world except those who are close to you,

Whoever gives a gift has already secretly marked the price......

As time goes by,

Jean is under Jack's meticulous care, and Anjie's hot broth is served,

The severe cold finally got better, and before that, Jack still went out every day to deliver milk, and the residents didn't want to go out in this cold weather.

On the other hand, Jack endured the bitter pain caused by the cold winter and earned a lot of salary.

Buy the asthma medicine that Jean needs every week,

And he didn't worry that when Qin was home alone, he would bring her to An Jie's side, until he finished delivering milk, and then took his mother back.

But after Jean's cold improved, she also went back to work in the bakery.

She also felt sorry for Jack who braved the biting wind and snow to go out to earn a little money.

And on Christmas night,

An Jie is preparing food in the kitchen, with chunks of beef skewers spinning on the grill and a pot of delicious fish soup on the stove.

All kinds of food were served to him one by one,

and put down three plates on the table,

At the same time, there was a knock on An Jie's door, and he came to the door to open the door, and he saw Jean and Jack, the little ghost.

"Merry Christmas! Please accept the gift. ”

Jack smiled and handed over a small loaf of bread with a bow in his hand.

"Merry Christmas, I made it myself, it may not taste as good as old Michelle......"

Jean added with a gentle smile.

An Jie looked at this special little bread, nodded and accepted the gift, opened the door to invite the mother and son into the house,

And Jean wasn't too embarrassed, and as a result, after Jack smelled the food,

Just walked into the house and ran to the dining table,

Jean froze in place, his expression slightly embarrassed.

"Come on, I just made a table of food, it's cold outside, don't let the heat run away."

Seeing this, An Jie smiled faintly.
