Chapter 82: Chapter 79: Be a Kind-Hearted Jiang Mingyue

The old man had his assistant escort her downstairs.

Jiang Mingyue didn’t refuse, also allowing the security guard to see with his own eyes that what she said was true.

Unexpectedly, this Assistant Xie was reluctant to part with her. Just turn around, will you!

“?”

Xie Yunhai sighed, “You really forgot. Do you still remember six years ago, behind the City Drum Tower near the Lan River, you handed a stick to a boy who was on the verge of drowning?”

Jiang Mingyue was taken aback.

Six years ago? The original person was twelve? A stick?

She rummaged through the original person’s memories with those keywords, and indeed found them.

Jiang Mingyue suddenly remembered something. In that book, it mentioned the person who finally claimed the original person’s body was a man named Xie Yunhai. Could it be this man in front of her?

“Looks like you remembered.” The man suddenly stepped back a few steps and bowed to her at ninety degrees.

She was so frightened she also retreated: Don’t do that! It feels like you’re paying respects to a tombstone.

“Thank you! You are my savior. I will repay you for the rest of my life.”

Jiang Mingyue opened her mouth to say something to refuse: No! The person you should thank is no longer here.

But she couldn’t say that out loud, and besides, this steamed bun-like youth seemed very persistent.

But in the end, Jiang Mingyue still waved her hand: “No need for that, it’s too much! Just live your life well.” It was a comfort to her if she knew the person who helped her collect the body and retain her last bit of dignity in her past life was you, she would instead be grateful to you.

Xie Yunhai saw he scared her away and was a bit helpless, eventually turning back upstairs.

Jiang Mingyue let out a sigh of relief. Passing by the security guard, Jiang Mingyue thought that since this is a food factory, maybe they’d cross paths again in the future, so she smiled and greeted the young man.

“My name is Jiang Mingyue. Thank you for being flexible just now.” Jiang Mingyue took two rabbits out of the basket and handed them to him: “A pair! Take good care of them, and you’ll have plenty of meat in the future.”

Suddenly receiving such a heavy gift, the young man was both surprised and delighted: Could this sister possibly like him?

“Hey! Mingyue, right? Such a nice name. My name is Jiang Yuan, stop by if you have time.”

Upstairs

As soon as Xie Yunhai entered the office, he heard the factory manager giving serious instructions.

“Go check out this person named Liu Yinghe in Lotus Village, whether there’s any relation to Jiang Beihua. Also, get someone to keep an eye on Jiang Beihua. I know you have the connections.”

With the factory manager’s words, Xie Yunhai understood.

After Jiang Mingyue came out, she still didn’t give Jiang Jian Country a thought but remembered the grandma who gave her the Nine Dragon Bowl last time, living in her sixties with a pair of grandchildren. She wondered how they were doing.

She had previously promised herself to take care of them, and it wasn’t empty talk.

The car turned into an alley and knocked on the battered old wooden door, and it took a while before a voice came from inside.

“Who is it?” Cautiously.

That’s being scared!

“Grandma Xu, it’s me!”

The door “creaked” open from the inside, and Jiang Mingyue glanced at the old lady’s condition. Compared to the first meeting, within just a month, the old lady seemed more spirited. The courtyard didn’t have the previous gloomy look anymore; now there were chicken and rabbit cages, and the two rabbits had turned into eight. They also carved out a small vegetable plot, with small greens lush and ready to pick.

The old lady was deeply grateful: “Girl, thank you. If not for you, I’m afraid my grandchildren and I would have long since…” starved to death.

“What are you talking about? I did take some things from you, Grandma Xu. By the way, my name is Jiang Mingyue, you can call me Ming Yue.”

“Ming Yue! Come in, let’s talk.” The old lady warmly invited, and Jiang Mingyue tasted the old lady’s homemade puffed rice candy.

It seems the old lady’s days are going well.

At this moment, the sound of children babbling came from inside, prompting the old lady to quickly get up.

“Oh! Our Lele is awake. Come, Grandma will take you out to meet your benefactor.”

Jiang Mingyue: “…” No need!

“Ming Yue, this is Xu Le. Their parents hope they grow healthy and happy, so the older one is Xu Kang and the younger one is Xu Le.”

“Great names!” Jiang Mingyue thought, for parents to have such wishes for their children, they must have been a perfect couple.

“Do you want to hold her?”

Jiang Mingyue was embarrassed: “I’m not very good at it.”

“No worries, thanks to the rice and flour you gave, I was able to make porridge and noodle mush for her. See, doesn’t she look much sturdier?”

“Yes.” Though she actually couldn’t tell.

“Here, like this.”

Under the encouragement of the old lady, Jiang Mingyue took the little girl, still not very skilled, thinking she might drop the child any moment.

The old lady helped adjust: “Let her head rest on your elbow… yes, just like that.”

Jiang Mingyue adjusted, indeed much more harmonious and comfortable. It turns out everything has a technique.

The little one now had wide eyes staring at her; Jiang Mingyue, looking at this cute face, felt both love and pity, thinking if only her parents were here, how nice it would be! Then she wouldn’t have suffered so much.

Jiang Mingyue, holding the little girl just to feel, was ready to hand her back to the old lady, but the little one’s tiny hand unexpectedly clutched her collar, not letting go.

“Oh! Lele, do you like Sister so much? Then remember, this is your Ms. Ming Yue.”

Jiang Mingyue thought to herself, you said it, but she can’t understand.

At this moment, there was another noise at the gate. She looked over and saw the little boy from last time entering with a basket.

The old lady waved with a smile: “Kangkang, come see who is here?”

The little boy naturally remembered Jiang Mingyue, and upon seeing her, he finally showed the look appropriate for his age—unlike a little old man.

“Sister, it’s you, it’s really you!”

“Yes, it’s me.” Jiang Mingyue stuffed a handful of candy into his hand, noticed his patched clothes, and regretted not going to the department store first.

Xu Kang held the candy but didn’t know if he should accept it, but still, being a child, he licked his lips instinctively, making Grandma Xu feel heartache: “Your Ms. Ming Yue gave it, so take it.”

Jiang Mingyue couldn’t stay long; she had several more places to go today.

She took out a pre-prepared braised chicken, a large portion of spicy rabbit cubes, then a bag of rice, some potatoes, and sweet potatoes from the basket, which should keep the grandma and grandkids going for a while.

“Grandma, please don’t refuse.”

“No, Ming Yue, what is this? I, an old lady, am not idle, my grandson and I take turns going to the outskirts to pick wild vegetables, and we get by.”

Jiang Mingyue guessed it, the little boy’s basket was half full of wild vegetables, but one cannot survive on wild vegetables alone.

“Grandma, what you gave me last time was too precious, so providing you with these supplies is the least I can do. When it equals out, I’ll naturally stop coming.”

“You, you’re so stubborn!” Grandma Xu didn’t know what to say, but her heart was churning. She knew this girl was finding ways to help her, but even if the item wasn’t taken out at the time, it would be confiscated now, and she might be taken away. She didn’t mind, but her two small grandchildren couldn’t do without her.

After delivering the supplies, Jiang Mingyue took off decisively.
