Because of the limited ingredients, Jiang Liu cooked a bowl of soft, glutinous and sweet millet porridge for his daughter-in-law, plus a bowl of tender chicken cake. He simply ate some leftovers from last night, and then left home to go Other chickens and ducks on the team bought some poultry at home to eat slowly.
After he went out, he found that there were three children squatting outside the yard at some point in time. The older one looked like seven or eight years old, and the younger one was only three years old. He just walked steadily.
In future generations, which of these children are not chubby, white and tender are painful, but in this era, because of lack of clothing and food, plus they have to help the family from a very young age, they are all black and thin. Just skinny.
"Uncle Liuzi."
Seeing Jiang Liu come out, the three children who seemed to be arguing and shoving stopped and stood up straight, like three sections of wooden stakes.
The older one who was slightly shy shouted at Jiang Liu, and the two younger ones also shouted after their brother. The two- or three-year-old child's speech was still a little vague, but his serious attitude of chewing words still made people want to laugh.
There were too many children in the village, and it had only been a few months since Jiang Liu came to Yuanshen's body. He didn't recognize all the people on the team. child's identity.
The older one is called Jiang Zhu, and the other two are his younger brothers Jiang Shuan and Jiang Shu.
These three children are the sons of Widow Xu on the team. When the Jiang family's man had an accident, Jiang Shu was still in her mother's womb. This woman was also tough. After the man's accident, she did not abandon her children and remarry, but gave birth to a posthumous child. , and shouldered the burden of caring for the elderly and raising children.
Those are three sons. It is also a heavy burden for ordinary people, not to mention widows who lack labor. Therefore, the life of the Jiang family has been very difficult these years. Fortunately, Widow Xu’s three sons are all sensible. , especially the eldest son Jiang Zhu, who is young, but has already taken on the responsibility of the eldest brother, taking care of two younger brothers. When Widow Xu went to work in the field, he carried a bamboo basket on his back when he was still young. Jiang Shu also tied his second brother Jiang Shuan with a rope, and led the other end of the rope to rummage through the harvested fields to find crops such as small sweet potatoes or rice ears that had not been excavated to relieve the food pressure at home.
Everyone on the team knew that their mother and son were in difficulty, and they turned a blind eye to what Jiang Shuan brothers did.
Sometimes they even deliberately leave some crops uncollected when harvesting, and the elders of other families will tell their children to deliberately avoid those fields when picking up those scattered crops.
Maybe sometimes, the small abacus of the team members will make people tired, but more often, it is a group of people who are kind-hearted and make people feel warm.
"What's the matter, what's the matter with me?"
Remembering the identities of these children, Jiang Liu's expression became much gentler, because when he saw them, he could always think of himself. Although he did not have a mother who was devoted to him, there was one who loved him equally and was willing to give everything for him. grandpa.
"Little tree, hurry up."
Jiang Shuan glanced fiercely at his three-year-old brother, thinking that Jiang Liu couldn't see him, and poked the position of his brother's back waist with his fingers.
Just now, he was obviously rushing to give the things to Uncle Liuzi, and he was still lying on the ground because of this matter. Why is he stunned when he sees Uncle Liuzi coming now.
"Liu Zihu - for, for you."
Jiang Shu didn't get angry when his brother glared at him, he smiled, shyly, stretched out the small hand that was originally behind his back to the front, and then opened his palm, revealing two handfuls of wild berries, and charged at Jiang Liu with a milky voice said.
Now that the weather is getting colder, it is not easy to find these berries. After all, there are few snacks these days, and children in the countryside rely on these wild fruits to satisfy their cravings. Basically, such good things will be given to sharp-eyed children as soon as they mature. Pick away.
Jiang Liu also ate this kind of small wild fruit unique to the mountain when he was a child, but he hadn't tasted this sweet and sour taste since he left home at the age of fourteen. When he saw it suddenly, it really made him feel Some miss it.
"Uncle Liuzi, thank you."
Seeing Jiang Liu's delay in picking up, Jiang Shuan grabbed the berries in his brother's hand and stuffed them into Jiang Liu's clothes pocket.
When Jiang Liu didn't respond, he took the hands of his two younger brothers, bowed deeply to him, and then ran away, probably worried that Jiang Liu would not accept the meager gifts of thanks.
Three-year-old Jiang Shu couldn't run fast. He was dragged by his elder brother with one hand. He struggled to move his two short legs. He put one hand in his mouth and sucked it happily. The hand that had just held the berries was sweet now smell.
Jiang Liu, who was thanked, was stunned. He naturally guessed why the three children came to thank him.
Yesterday, he sent the payment for the goods settled by the department store. Widow Xu's family earned three yuan from straw weaving. Don't underestimate the importance of this money to a barren family, especially these three yuan, which is only for their family this week. time of results.
How many families with more people than Widow Xu's family earned less than half of their income this time, enough to see the serious efforts of this family, Jiang Liu heard what others said, and Jiang Shuan and the brothers helped their widow to dry and buy from the team. The thatch that I went back to, so that the widow can start knitting as soon as she gets home, and the widow's mother-in-law, an old lady with inconvenient legs and feet, is also lying on the kang very hard to learn how to knit that thing with her daughter-in-law. Both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are A kind person, he does everything perfectly, and he never thought of using his weak position to make something to fool Jiang Liu.
Jiang Liu also understood the reason why the three brothers came to thank him specially, because an extra extra income was the icing on the cake for some families, but for the Jiang family, it was a relief.
Listening to what Widow Xu revealed to the outside world, she planned to earn more money and send her eldest son Jiang Shuan to school. Over the years, she has treated the eldest son the most, and she hopes to make up for it.
For the Jiang family, he has indeed become a great benefactor.
Jiang Liu took out a bright red berry from his pocket. It was estimated that Jiang Shu's child was too nervous when he just pinched it. Many of the berries were crushed and sticky in the pocket.
But Jiang Liu didn't dislike it, he looked at the fruit that had been splashed with juice in his hand, and threw it into his mouth.
sweet!
"When people feel happy when they encounter happy things, a substance called dopamine is secreted in the brain, and the host is very happy now."
001 appeared in mid-air, saying mechanically, this is the first time that 001 has appeared in front of Jiang Liu since Jiang Liu came to this mission world.
"In the current world, the host has received sincere gratitude from nine people and gained an additional 450 points."
Originally, Jiang Liu wanted to explain to the system that people's emotions can't just be scientifically analyzed. When he heard the system's words, he immediately changed the subject and asked about the extra points.
"This system is the Holy Father's system. Our purpose is to spread love. The host's behavior reflects this very well. Getting extra points is also a reward that the host deserves."
001 performed his duties and explained to Jiang Liu.
Jiang Liu was silent. His original intention of doing this was not to help others at all. He just wanted to solve a potential trouble and expand the production line. His original intention was to make money for himself.
Having been at the bottom of the society for a long time, Jiang Liu's heart has long been numb. He just wants to live his own life well, and he doesn't have any noble sentiments at all. To be honest, when the Holy Father system found him, he felt that the system was looking for the wrong person. How could a villain like him become a selfless, sacrificial holy father
But I have to say that when he heard from the system that his inherently selfish behavior received sincere thanks from nine people, his mood was complicated.
The standard for the system to determine gratitude is definitely not an ordinary standard. Otherwise, if a small favor can be exchanged for 50 points, I am afraid that through this loophole, he can get rich immediately. For those people, he might really be a savior who saved their lives.
Jiang Liu threw another berry into his mouth. At this moment, his mouth couldn't taste the taste, he just felt that the taste was sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and salty.
"Although the host has done a commendable deed, I have to remind the host that the current target Miao Caifeng's favorability towards the host has dropped from the original 60 to the current 40, and the host should be vigilant and attack the target as soon as possible. "
001 is straight-forward, it's just an emotionless system, all the words are the results of data analysis, it can't understand Jiang Liu's complicated state of mind at this time, when the other party thinks, he pours a basin of cold water on him.
"so tall!"
Jiang Liu's first reaction when he heard 001's words was this. He thought that according to the attitude of the old lady when he first came, she would rather he die. This is not a mother and son, but an enemy. I didn't expect that there were still 60 people at that time. Favorability.
These days, he has been mad at the old lady once in a while, and his favorability has not dropped below zero. Is it because the old lady's favor is too worthless, or her love for another son, Jiang Hai, has reached its peak. The eldest son also has feelings, but did he choose the latter without hesitation
"Don't worry, I still want to live for a long time, and the task will naturally be completed."
Jiang Liu waved his hand, anyway, now the old lady has a stern face towards him, he has no habit of sticking a hot face to a cold butt.
On the other hand, for the nine people who were truly grateful to him, even for the points they brought him, he had to do a good thing for them.
Jiang Liucai refused to admit that he was a little moved, and the dead duck stubbornly regarded this as a courtesy exchange. As a small person, a small person with a bottom line, he would not be favored by others in vain.
