A family of three goes through the ages, not being a saint and not helping the poor

Lingling, why did you buy so many pills? We have medicine at home." They did not go directly to the police station, but first went to store their bicycles before heading to the police station.

When they walked to the door of the police station, they happened to see Zhong Liang walking out of the police station, so they took the initiative to greet Zhong Liang.

"Are you here to see Comrade Chu?"

"Yes, is he still in the police station?"

"Yes, but he is still in Director Chen's office."

"It's okay, we'll just wait here for him to come out."

After hearing what Meng Qiuping said, Zhong Liang thought for a while and said to Meng Qiuping, "If you don't mind, you can sit in my office and wait."

"Would it be too much trouble?"

"No, I'll take you to my office now." Zhong Liang said and took the lead to walk towards his office.

When he walked to the door of his office, he said to Chu Yiling and Meng Qiuping, "Please sit wherever you want. I have something else to take care of, so I'll be busy now."

"it is good."

"Oh, by the way, someone will come to inform you when Comrade Chu comes out of Director Chen's office, so just wait here with peace of mind."

"We understand. Thank you, Captain Zhong."

"You're welcome. I'll be leaving first." After saying this, Zhong Liang turned around and walked out of the office.

After Zhong Liang left, Chu Yiling couldn't help but sigh: "Captain Zhong is really enthusiastic and takes good care of our family."

"Really? Then we have to thank him properly."

"Forget it. Captain Zhong is a man of principle. He will definitely not accept anything we give him."

"I know, but don't forget your father's ability. There is nothing in this world that he can't give away."

"Then let Dad send something to Captain Zhong. We can't let this connection be cut off."

"Don't worry, your father must have known about it a long time ago. As for why he didn't send it now, it might be because the timing is not right.

When the time comes, your father will naturally send it."

Chu Yiling nodded when she heard Meng Qiuping's words. Then she stopped discussing this topic with Meng Qiuping and started discussing what to buy to take home.

More than half an hour later, Chu Anshan walked into Zhong Liang's office with a happy face, and saw Chu Yiling and Meng Qiuping looking at him expectantly. He nodded at them to indicate that the matter was done.

Then he led them out of the police station.

After he got out of the police station, he said to Chu Yiling and Meng Qiuping: "The county town is not a good place to talk about those things. Let's buy things first and talk about the rest when we get home."

Chu Yiling and Meng Qiuping nodded when they heard Chu Anshan's words, and they went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy New Year's goods.

They rode their bikes back to the village only after they had bought everything they needed.

"Anshan, did you just come back from the county?"

"Yes, Lingling caught a cold again, so I took her to the county to get a shot."

"so serious?"

“Yes, it might be because it’s her first time to spend winter in the north and she’s not used to the weather here, so she often catches a cold.

After hearing what Chu Anshan said, Chu Mulin looked at Chu Yiling with sympathy, and then said, "Let Lingling walk around in the yard more often in the future, and don't keep her in the house all the time, otherwise it will be difficult for her to adapt to the winter here."

"it is good."

"Go home quickly. I'll help you return the car to the brigade headquarters."

"Thank you, uncle."

When Chu Mulin heard Chu Anshan's words, he waved his hand indifferently, took the bicycle from Chu Anshan, and pushed the bicycle towards the brigade headquarters.

"Dad, do you believe me when I tell you I was cheated?"

"What do you mean?"

"It means that we have become the ones clearing out the stock at the Chinese medicine clinic."

“I know, but it doesn’t matter. You have space anyway, so even if we buy more Chinese medicine, it won’t go bad.

Besides, Chinese medicine will only become more and more expensive in the future, especially after the economy opens up, so we won’t lose out even if we are taken advantage of.”

Chu Yiling thought about what Chu Anshan said and realized it was true, so she asked Chu Anshan: "Dad, how about we go buy some more?"

"It's not the right time yet. I'll buy some when this place is almost closed. Maybe I can bargain for it then."

"Do you know when this place closes?"

"Yes, I just gave five dollars to the warehouse keeper and found out."

Chu Yiling gave Chu Anshan a thumbs up after hearing what he said, and then said to Chu Anshan: "Let's find a place to store the herbs and pills in the space first, otherwise it will attract too much attention if we carry them all the time."

"it is good."

Seven or eight minutes later, Chu Yiling and her family walked out of the alley relaxedly. Then they went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a few bottles of canned fruit and rode their bikes back to the village.

"You guys are back, is everything ok?"

"It's okay! Uncle, why are you asking me this all of a sudden?"

"Someone saw you being picked up by the police this morning, so I came to ask."

"Oh, so that's why. Actually, it's nothing. The people in the police station needed my help with something, so they came to the village to pick me up early in the morning."

"Did you help?"

"Yes, I have."

"That's good, that's good. I'll explain the reason to the villagers later to prevent them from spreading rumors."

"Then I'll trouble you, uncle. This is the canned yellow peach I bought in the county. You can take it back and feed it to your children at home."

"No, no, you should leave the canned food for Lingling."

"Also, Lingling can't finish it all by herself."

"Then I'd like to thank you on their behalf. I just have to go to the brigade headquarters. I'll help you push your bikes over."

When Chu Anshan heard Chu Mulin's words, he did not refuse and directly handed the bicycle in his hand to Chu Mulin. Then, after Chu Mulin pushed the bicycle away, he walked home with his wife and daughter.

When he got home, he first lit up the kang in the house, then said to Chu Yiling, "Chu Yiling, change your clothes quickly and go to the kang to warm up, and get rid of the dampness and coldness on your body, so as not to catch a cold again."

"Okay." Chu Yiling said and immediately went to change clothes.

However, after changing her clothes, she did not sit on the kang immediately. Instead, she washed her feet with water from the thermos before sitting on the kang to warm her body.

Around five o'clock in the evening, Chu Yiling heard Meng Qiuping calling her to have dinner, and she woke up from her drowsy state. Then she put her thick cotton jacket on the bed, got off the kang and walked out of the room.

When she left the room, she saw a heated copper pot on the dining table, and she knew what she would have for breakfast.

So she didn't even need Meng Qiuping to ask, she just took out the hot pot ingredients and happy water from the space and put them on the table.

Then the whole family happily ate hot pot.

After they finished eating hot pot and rested for a while, they went to wash up and go to bed.
