Reborn as an educated youth, my love brain awakens

"Xiaoyi is not in the house. He is hiding again."

When he tried to open the door, the child hid again.

Old man Sun was so anxious that he started looking everywhere. Ji Qinglan and Old Man Li also helped to look for him. The door was closed after they came in. Sun Yi did not run away, so he must be hiding somewhere.

I searched the front and back yards, flower beds, corridors... and even the well, but found nothing.

Old man Sun was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and called his grandson's name over and over again.

"Don't worry, the door is not open, he must be hiding in the house." Old Master Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and comforted him.

Now he felt that a big place was not perfect.

Ji Qinglan suddenly thought of a place and hurried into the kitchen.

There is a channel extending from the back of the kitchen stove to the kang in the next room. It will be blocked with stone slabs when not in use. When it is cold, the stone slabs will be removed and a pot will be placed here to light a fire. The heat will be transferred through the hole to the kang in the next room.

During the renovation, Ji Qinglan did not install floor heating, so the kang hole was retained, and the stone slab blocking the hole has been removed.

Sure enough, she saw two gray crawling marks on the edge of the kang hole. Her guess was correct. Sun Yi must have crawled in along the kang hole.

"Uncle Sun, old man, come and take a look." She called out to the two anxious people.

Old man Sun also noticed the two marks and bent down to try to get in, but his adult body was too big to fit through the narrow hole in the kang.

He could only shout anxiously outside: "Xiaoyi, it's grandpa, come out quickly, the bad guys have run away."

For a while, there was no sound from inside.

The three adults squatted here, anxious and helpless.

Ji Qinglan thought for a moment and took out a handful of White Rabbit candies from his arms. Old Man Sun understood and immediately coaxed him, "Xiaoyi, grandpa bought you some White Rabbit milk candies. They are fragrant and sweet and delicious. Come out and eat them!"

"White Rabbit Milk Candy, Xiaoyi, do you still remember that your grandpa bought it for you when you were little?"

Ji Qinglan moved her ears and finally heard a sound inside. She couldn't help but feel happy.

Slowly, a pair of black feet appeared in front of her eyes. Sun Yi was crawling back bit by bit.

Sure enough, every child can't resist the temptation of milk candy.

The little black charcoal, whose body was as black as a coal ball, was held in his grandfather's arms and allowed his grandfather to wash him. He had a sweet candy in his mouth and two in his hands, and his little eyes were shining.

One could clearly count the ribs on his thin body, as well as the scars on his body, both new and old. Ji Qinglan's heart ached uncontrollably.

As expected, some people are not born to be human beings and are worse than beasts.

After Old Man Sun wiped Sun Yi clean bit by bit and changed him into new clothes, he coaxed him to go to Old Man Li to see a doctor.

"The fever has subsided. You'll need to take care of yourself slowly." Mr. Li said.

Old Man Sun carried Sun Yi back to the house and fell asleep, and the two of them moved stools and sat at the door to chat.

"What are you going to do with that family?" asked Mr. Li.

Old man Sun gritted his teeth, a ferocious hatred in his eyes: "Blood debt must be paid with blood. You hurt Xiaoyi like this. You can't get out."

Since that woman remarried, she asked for money and food every month. He endured it for the sake of his grandson and gave her the money, but what did he get in the end?

The family ate his food, drank his food, and beat his grandchildren.

From the time he was brought home until now, Sun Yi has not uttered a complete sentence and can only scream and cry.

What a lively and lovely child he was before! He was harmed by those people.

When that shameless family came over just now, Sun Yi was so scared that he hid under the bed and trembled. If Yang Jing hadn't blocked the door in time, he didn't dare to think about what the outcome would be.

Mr. Li glanced at his old friend. He knew that his old friend was a man of courage, otherwise he would not have been able to become the head manager. It was just that life had worn him out over the years.

He sighed and advised: "It's good that you have an idea, but she is Xiaoyi's mother after all. If she is not well, Xiaoyi will have endless troubles in the future."

Old Man Sun closed his eyes and looked at Ji Qinglan who was covering the well in the yard with a thick wooden board.

Finally he said: "Don't worry, I won't do anything illegal, I will handle this matter properly."

"I'm glad you figured it out. Just for Xiaoyi, you have to live a long life."

Ji Qinglan not only covered the well, but also sealed the kang hole with a cupboard. She didn't want the incident of Sun Yi drilling into the kang hole to happen again.

After doing all this, while Old Man Sun and Old Man Li were talking at the next door, she stuffed five more bags of candy into the bag. There were peanut candies that Liu Yumei gave her, maltose, White Rabbit, fruit candies, and chocolate beans, mainly one flavor to eat in turn.

She originally brought two cans of milk powder, ten kilograms of rice and millet, and two kilograms of pork belly; Sun Yi liked to eat candy, so she gave him some. Seeing Sun Yi like this, she really couldn't bear it, so she just did her best to do her part and leave herself with a clear conscience.

She went to other houses to check out Old Man Sun’s collection over the past few months.

Old man Sun has been walking around the streets and alleys for the past few months, collecting a lot of things. The three rooms on the east side are already full.

When Old Man Sun saw Ji Qinglan going to look at something, he quickly stood up, while Old Man Li sat at the door without moving.

Ji Qinglan entered the first room and saw a complete set of classical mahogany furniture as soon as he entered the door.

Seeing Ji Qinglan's satisfied look, Old Man Sun could not help but introduce: "This is a complete set of living room furniture, including the Ruyi carved pattern, made in Beijing by the emperor, made of top-grade old mahogany, well preserved, and I spent two thousand yuan when I bought it."

Ji Qinglan's eyes were full of surprise. She didn't expect there was such a good thing. She could put it in the living room on Chang'an Street.

Ever since Old Man Sun started collecting old items, she has placed 10,000 yuan with Old Man Li. Old Man Sun takes out 1,000 yuan each time, and if he is temporarily short of money, he will withdraw money from Old Man Li.

She didn't expect that Old Man Sun would give her such a surprise.

Old Man Sun took out the account book and showed it to Ji Qinglan. It listed the details of his expenses for the past four months. Starting from the sixth day of the first lunar month, he collected 209 antiques.

The prices varied, ranging from a few yuan to dozens or even hundreds of yuan. The total cost was 4,684 yuan. The most expensive was this set of classical mahogany furniture, which cost 2,000 yuan.

Ji Qinglan looked through it slowly and returned the account book to Old Man Sun ten minutes later.

"Uncle Sun, you have worked hard. Go to the old man and withdraw fifty dollars as an extra reward."

Old Man Sun waved his hands when he heard this: "Comrade Ji, no, you just gave me 200 yuan last week. I don't have enough money to take more from you. This should be my job."

"Let's be honest. That money was given to Sun Yi by me. This fifty yuan is a reward for your work. You live in the open air every day. I can see your hard work. I will not treat any employee who works hard for me unfairly."

"Thank you, boss." Old man Sun was deeply moved. Ji Qinglan was the benefactor of his life.
