Jiang Xun saw the firewood piled in the corner of the courtyard and asked again, “When did your husband leave?”
The cameraman who followed Jiang Xun sighed. Jiang Xun really respected her elders!
He had never seen her so talkative. Instead of rushing to finish the task, she would first show concern for the old lady.
The old lady clicked her tongue. Why did it sound so strange.
“He went to the city yesterday,” the old lady said.
“Does your family usually cook with gas?” Jiang Xun asked again.
“Yes!” The old lady nodded. “Now they all use gas!”
To be honest, she really didn’t notice since she had only come this morning.
She hadn’t had the time to carefully observe the situation of the house.
However, the old lady guessed that since the village was so close to the cpital, so it couldn’t possibly still burn firewood to cook.
“Then, does your family usually use firewood?” Jiang Xun asked again.
“Not at all,” the old lady said casually. “My husband and I are both old, how can we have the strength to cut firewood! Besides, burning firewood in the courtyard isn’t environmentally friendly…”
As the old lady spoke, she followed Jiang Xun’s gaze and saw the firewood piled in the corner of the courtyard.
The old lady was silent.
I was too careless.
This little girl wasn’t trying to trick her, was she?!
The little girl was indeed very smart and alert. She was a perfect match for her eldest grandson!
“Occasionally, when the neighbors are free, they will come over and help us chop some firewood, “the old lady explained with a smile. “I can’t refuse the good intentions of the neighbors.”
Jiang Xun nodded with a smile and followed the old lady into the house.
“Is there anything you need me to do here?” Jiang Xun asked. “You live alone, so there must be quite a number of things that I can help with.”
“Ah, there is.” The old lady had thought it through long ago. “I’m old, and it’s always easy for me to feel pain here and there. Young lady, do you know how to massage? Will you give me a massage?”
“Okay.” Jiang Xun let the old lady sit down and gave her a massage.
In the post-apocalyptic army, they often massaged each other, and Jiang Xun was quite proficient in it.
After a few massages, the old lady got up comfortably. “Yes, yes, yes, right here. That part is always very stiff. But as you know, I’m old, and I don’t dare to move too carelessly.”
“You have nodules on your shoulder, and the back of your neck is also very stiff. You usually lower your head to look at your phone, right?” Jiang Xun said as she massaged the old lady.
“Yes, I don’t have much else to do normally, but the things on the internet are so interesting these days. You can watch short videos and read novels, and a day will pass in the blink of an eye.”
“But you can’t always stay still,” Jiang Xun said. “You still have to exercise appropriately.”
“No, no, I’m old. I can’t exercise too much. I can’t do any of the fitness programs that you young people do.” The old lady shook her head quickly.
Hanbi was anxious to death while hiding in the house.
If she could speak, she would definitely tell Jiang Xun that the old lady was just lazy.
They all tried to persuade the old lady to exercise more, even if it was just walking.
The old lady refused. She insisted that if she fell while walking, the loss would be even greater.
Therefore, she wished that she could stay on the sofa at home all day and play with her mobile phone.
If Jiang Xun could persuade the old lady to exercise, even if it was just doing more activities, she would thank Jiang Xun.
“There’s no need to do those programs we are doing,”Jiang Xun said.
“I can’t do tai chi either!” Old Mrs. Qin said quickly.
Jiang Xun: “…”
“Grandma, I’m a little thirsty. Can I have a glass of water?”Jiang Xun suddenly said.
“Of course.” Old Mrs. Qin got up. She didn’t dare to let Jiang Xun wander around. What if she bumped into Hanbi?
“I’ll pour it for you.” The old lady stood up and went out of the courtyard. In the end, she entered the wrong room and not the kitchen.
So she came out again and went to the opposite room. This time, it was the kitchen.
However, the old lady wasn’t familiar with the furnishings here, so she rummaged through the cabinets.
She finally found a cup, but they hadn’t boiled the water since they came here. But there was the mineral water that she brought.
The mineral water was piled on the kitchen table. Of course, she and Hanbi didn’t set it up. The driver who sent them here helped put it there.
The old lady didn’t notice it before, but now that she thought about it, she went to get a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Jiang Xun. “Here, have some water.”
“Do you usually drink like this at home?” The old lady was quite extravagant.
In normal farm houses, the most important things were big buckets of water and filtered water, or they would boil tap water directly.
It was really rare for an old lady to drink bottled mineral water in small bottles.
It was not because of anything else, but because bottled water was expensive.
It was not like they bought it outside to quench their thirst. It was not worth it to drink it at home.
Jiang Xun drank large buckets of water at home. She went to carry two buckets of water and climbed the stairs to go home as exercise.
