The four of them couldn't stay here any longer, so Song Shuangshuang suggested that Grandma Lin think about it carefully and discuss with Grandpa Lin to send a letter to the old leader to see if they could help, at least give it a try. Even if they didn't get a reply, the situation wouldn't be worse than it is now.

Then there is the matter of food. This time, Song Shuangshuang put the food in the same place where she hid it last time, and only Shuo Shuo knew about it.

Song Youlin also put the firewood in the kitchen stove. The group of people had already searched the kitchen thoroughly, and most likely they would not look at what was in the stove.

"Grandma Lin, you and Grandpa Lin are not in good health. You must heat the kang at night, otherwise you will not be able to hold on. I also brought some eggs this time, all of which are cooked and placed in the snow pile next to the kitchen. Remember to eat them. I will bring them back for you next time you come."

"No, no, no, you've already given us food, just take the eggs back and eat them yourself."

As Grandma Lin said this, she wanted to go out to the fields to look for eggs, but was stopped by Song Shuangshuang.

"We live in the village and can raise chickens. These eggs are all laid by ourselves. If you don't eat eggs, how can you nourish your body? And Shuo Shuo, he is much younger than his peers..."

Song Shuangshuang only found out today that Shuoshuo is already 7 years old and is much shorter than his peers.

However, it was not easy for him to be raised to this age by the old couple.

After comforting Grandma Lin, Song Shuangshuang took out two handfuls of candies from her bag. Not to mention the sparkling ones, Grandma Lin's eyes were wide open. This was too much. How much would it cost?

Shuo Shuo still had the taste of the candy he had just eaten in his mouth, and he swallowed subconsciously.

In his memory, he had never eaten anything so delicious, even better than eggs. In the past few years, his grandparents occasionally gave him steamed egg cakes to eat, and he thought that was the most delicious thing in the world. Only after eating the toffee today did he know that there was such a delicious thing.

Knowing that Grandma Lin would say no, Song Shuangshuang said before Grandma Lin opened her mouth.

"This is what I promised Shuo Shuo last time I came here. As his sister, I cannot break my promise. Besides, these milk candies can be considered as backup food. If the food I hid is stolen, you can boil some milk candies in water and drink it as milk. It's better than eating fruit candies anyway."

Song Shuangshuang gave all the candies to Shuo Shuo and told him to hide them. She also told him to supervise his grandparents as before and criticize them if he found out they didn't eat.

Shuo Shuo motioned for Song Shuangshuang to squat down, and whispered in her ear that this was what he did a few days ago. Every morning he would go to the place where the grain was hidden and scoop some grain back for his grandfather to cook. He would also put a few pieces of fruit candy in Grandpa Lin's pocket when he wasn't paying attention.

"Shuo Shuo is awesome. Keep doing this in the future." Song Shuangshuang touched Shuo Shuo's little face.

The child is still too thin. She has to find a way to feed him, otherwise the child will not grow tall in the future.

Although Shuo Shuo was so skinny that he had no flesh on his face, he still looked handsome. Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin were also good looking, so the child would not be bad in the future. She didn't want such a handsome boy to grow to only 1.6 meters in the end.

Well, she was thinking too far ahead.

But no matter what, we have to find a way to make Grandpa Lin's family live a better life.

Several people left Grandpa Lin's house. Song Shuangshuang asked her younger brother to get the goods for He Feiyang, while she followed Jiang Jingcheng and waited at the intersection.

In the city, the two of them didn’t dare to be as unrestrained as they were in the village. They didn’t even dare to hold hands, and even kept a distance of one meter, for fear that an old lady would rush out from some alley and say that they were immoral!

Song Shuangshuang stood by the wall and looked at Jiang Jingcheng. The more she looked at him, the more satisfied she was. This man not only had the type of looks she liked, but also a good personality.

She had previously thought that Jiang Jingcheng didn't like children, because she had never seen any children approach him in the village. But she didn't expect that he was quite gentle to Shuo Shuo today, and it seemed like he wasn't pretending.

Thinking of how Shuo Shuo addressed him, Song Shuangshuang wanted to tease him again.

In case someone suddenly passed by and heard their conversation, Song Shuangshuang also asked the system to check if there was anyone nearby. After confirming that there was no one nearby, Song Shuangshuang looked at Jiang Jingcheng and said word by word

"Jiang, brother, brother."

Jiang Jingcheng just noticed that Song Shuangshuang's smile was... very strange, and thought she had come up with some bad ideas, so he was mentally prepared. However, he didn't expect that he would still be stimulated by these three words and his blood boiled.

Who taught her to say that?!

How come they are in the city now? If they were in the village...

Jiang Jingcheng didn't dare to think further, because the scene on the mountain a few days ago had already appeared in his mind.

Jiang Jingcheng took several deep breaths before he recovered, then glared at Song Shuangshuang.

Song Shuangshuang immediately made an aggrieved expression.

Jiang Jingcheng: "..."

Forget it, it’s all his fault. He has a problem with his thinking.

After a while, Song Youlin came back with a basket of things. "Why don't you go and do your work first? We'll meet at the entrance of the state-owned restaurant at noon and decide what to do next then."

"Okay. Then you guys be careful."

The three of them discussed it overnight last night and decided not to look for Brother Hai to cooperate in the county town. The county town is so small, Brother Hai can only take in a limited supply of goods, and they often come to the county town to sell things. If they look for someone to cooperate in the county town again, they will earn less.

It is better to develop somewhere else. The only trouble is that you have to travel a long way every time and it takes a long time to go back and forth.

Jiang Jingcheng said that this was a simple matter. He could rent a warehouse in the county town, and then when he found a source of goods in the city, he could ask people there to pick them up. This way they could save a lot of trouble and only had to give up some profit.

Originally, Jiang Jingcheng planned to go to the city today to pick up goods from Brother Hai, but after last night's conversation, Jiang Jingcheng changed his plan and prepared to look for a house.

It would be best to settle this matter before the spring, otherwise there will be no time after the spring, and he cannot take leave frequently.

Moreover, he learned from Song Shuangshuang and Song Youlin that they could only make money before the end of this year, and they would have other things to do after the Chinese New Year.

So he had to hurry up.

When they returned home in the evening, after He Feiyang and Tan Anjing returned, the brother and sister asked Jiang Jingcheng about his progress that day and whether he had found a suitable place.

Jiang Jingcheng was relatively familiar with the situation in the county, and he had several targets, but he still needed to inquire carefully to avoid being reported.

Of course, you also have to be careful of Brother Hai.

"Well, Brother Hai, are we completely broken up now?" Song Shuangshuang felt it was a pity as she would lose a lot of money.

"Brother Hai, don't think about it for now. Let's wait until the spring. Or we can replace these things for him after a while and see if he wants to change them or not."

Last time, because Song Shuangshuang had a bad feeling, they came back early and didn't go to Brother Hai's place. Today, they forgot about it. Not counting the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the last time they delivered goods to Brother Hai was before the Chinese New Year. Thinking about Brother Hai's disappointment...

Well, let’s stop by next time when we deliver food to Grandpa Lin and the others.
