Chapter 218: Chapter 218 Grandma Ye is Unwell

"My dear, look, I’ve brought the money over."

"Do you have any medicine for stomach pain? Give me some!"

The old lady’s face wore a pleasing smile, which she found very repulsive.

"Enough, put your money away. No one here is selling medicine.

"You figure it out yourself, and also, don’t come knocking on my door, or I won’t be polite."

As she spoke, she even stretched out her fist, showing she meant what she said.

Of course, the old lady was unwilling to leave. She knew well that something was definitely available on the twenty-first floor.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have come here shamelessly.

"My dear, my dear, don’t go! I really need it, no matter the cost, just sell me some!"

Jhiang Yuan rolled her eyes. This old lady was no simple character.

Had they not had dealings before? Could she really capsize in the gutter twice?

What a joke!

If her words could be trusted, pigs could climb trees.

"Just go, I don’t have any, and even if I did, I wouldn’t sell it to you.

"Who knows if you’ll turn things around and play the victim, you old witch."

Her words were unkind, but the old lady wasn’t offended.

However, Jhiang Yuan really thought so. This person was unreliable. What if she complained the medicine didn’t work?

If she came causing trouble again, she really didn’t want any drama.

"My dear, I was wrong before. Don’t be petty with an old woman like me.

"I really want to buy, just tell me how much. Is ten thousand enough, or perhaps twenty thousand?"

Seeing Jhiang Yuan remain silent, the old lady gritted her teeth as if making a desperate decision.

"I have fifty thousand here, I’ll give it all to you. Just give me some medicine.

"I really have no other option, and there are two kids at home suffering with severe stomach pain. Please, have mercy and save them!"

In the old woman’s eyes, a trace of genuine emotion actually appeared.

But what did that have to do with her?

This was because Li Tianyu hadn’t managed to get any medicine from Fan Qing and now wanted to target her, really scheming a lot.

This family, living so well and still not going out,

probably had a lot of food at home, otherwise, they wouldn’t casually accept an outsider like Li Tianyu.

As for how the stuff came, besides buying, there must also be various shameless scrounging.

Even taken by robbing or sneaking around.

"Song Yi, let’s go!"

Jhiang Yuan didn’t want to deal with her; this person was like sticky candy, hard to get rid of once stuck.

"You go up first!"

She was slightly taken aback, but soon realized, and did not hesitate; she went up!

"Hey, my dear, don’t go! I really want to buy from you, I assure you, I’ll pay!"

She stretched her neck looking over, but Jhiang Yuan didn’t even look back.

There was also a railing blocking that side; she couldn’t get close at all.

Song Yi didn’t hesitate; he directly drew a short knife and held it in front of him, examining it closely.

The old woman became frightened, her speech stuttering.

"What, what are you trying to do?"

"Nothing..."

Song Yi said, then waved the knife a couple of times.

The old woman was nearly scared to pee and hurriedly ran away, her footsteps down the stairs chaotic and harsh...

Jhiang Yuan hadn’t gone far and was still in the corridor, just not visible from below.

"You really have a way..."

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying no more, everything left unsaid...

Back upstairs, Jhiang Yuan was about to enter her home.

The hallway was too cold, there was no need to keep watching there.

Also, she didn’t want to always bother Song Yi.

"Later, we’ll check on the people downstairs again, but let’s go back and rest first."

"Okay!"

At home, the electric heater was on, making it much warmer than outside.

Xiao Nuan scampered over and dove into her arms.

"Baby, stop it, Mommy is too cold, I’m chilly, get down first..."

"Yes, little ancestor, stop bothering your mom, let her warm up a bit, then she’ll play with you..."

Qin Yue was worried that Xiao Nuan might catch a cold too and hurried over to take her away.

Jhiang Yuan didn’t dare to be careless, she quickly went to warm up by the electric heater, and then went to change her clothes.

"Mommy, is Sister Jingjing better yet?"

"Not yet, Xiao Nuan be good. Wait until your sister is well, and then she’ll come to teach you."

"Okay!"

She was a very obedient child, which was gratifying to her.

"It’s really unfortunate, the child is also suffering, we don’t have much water left at home and I don’t know what we will do later."

Qin Yue was always like that, concerned about everyone, afraid that her own family would face that situation too.

"It’s okay, our family can still hold on for a while. Don’t mention anything else, there’s still that much bottled water.

The water tank on top is full, it doesn’t have anything to do with the snow.

Mom, just use it as normal."

Saying to use it normally also meant being very frugal.

Water used to wash rice was used for washing vegetables and dishes; water for washing faces was for washing feet, and given the cold weather, maybe the leftovers were to be used for mopping the floor.

However, the usage was very minimal. Jhiang Xingzhi even just wet his washcloth daily to wipe himself down once.

Previously used towels that had served for most of a lifetime were now deemed too absorbent, and he had switched to using softer cloths.

"Oh, where’s Dad?"

"Your dad went up; he said the snow isn’t anything good, he’s going to shovel it and throw it down."

"Ah? Since he knows it’s bad, why touch it, really, I’ll go check on him..."

Qin Yue quickly came over to pull her back, this daughter and her dad are exactly alike, always in a rush in everything they do.

"Don’t worry, your dad knows what he’s doing. Didn’t he buy a lot of protective gear before? I helped him put it on.

Besides, it’s still snowing outside; even if he uses a shovel and throws it down, you can’t tell anything.

As long as he’s very careful, there won’t be any problem."

Qin Yue knew that if they didn’t handle the snow, the garret was definitely going to suffer.

Moreover, as long as it doesn’t come into direct contact with the body, it’s not a problem.

Even the few girls who had touched the snow were fine.

So, just do not drink it or ingest it in any way.

Jhiang Xingzhi is stubborn; if they forbid him to go, he would still sneak out.

Better to openly manage it for him, which could alleviate some worries afterward.

Jhiang Yuan still wasn’t reassured and specifically ran upstairs to check.

She couldn’t really say anything; her dad also didn’t let her stay long.

Having no choice, she could only come back to cook dinner and nourish him properly.

Xiao Nuan was still thinking about Jingjing but was very well-behaved, just quietly reading a book.

After much thought, Jhiang Yuan boiled a lot of brown sugar water, ready to deliver it to them.

The water used was still from the well inside the space, effective or not, at least it was clean.

Just as she finished preparing, there came the rush of hurried footsteps.

It was seven o’clock now, and she planned to ask Song Yi to accompany her over.

They could also check out the situation on the way, as the noise was so loud, it made the two of them exchange glances.

"Sister Yuan, Brother Song, quick, Grandma Ye is not doing well..."

Zhang Kaiyang was gasping for breath, apparently coming up to give the news, and a bad premonition came over them.
