Chapter 65: Being Chained Since I was a Child

"Uncle Jiang, just take it. I know you are here to help, but don't forget that you haven't gone out to make money these two days. Besides, even if you don't need it, Uncle Chen will need it."

"this……"

Uncle Jiang was in a dilemma because Ye Lin was right, he didn't need it because he could just follow Ye Lin, but he was different from Old Chen who came with him.

"Old Jiang, you can't ask for this money." Uncle Chen shook his head at Uncle Jiang.

Uncle Chen Ye Lin learned something from Uncle Jiang that he is an architectural restorationist, but in recent years, he has basically been idle at home. Although the unit still pays him a salary, it is only two-thirds of the original one.

There is no way, because nothing has been repaired in the past few years.

At the same time, Uncle Chen is also a scholar, and scholars are more pedantic. Ye Lin knows this better than anyone else, especially in this era, to put it bluntly, he is just a fake noble person.

"Yes." Uncle Jiang nodded, then turned around and said to Ye Lin: "I really can't ask for this money, you'd better take it back."

"Uncle Jiang..."

"Okay, Ye Lin, let's do it."

"But if you don't accept it, I'm sorry!"

When Uncle Jiang heard Ye Lin say this, he frowned and thought for a while and said, "Well, Ye Lin, I see that your family has eaten white flour steamed buns these two days. That is to say, if you don't eat coarse grains, can you give us your family's coarse grains? Of course, we don't want them for nothing, we pay for them."

"This is OK." Uncle Chen also nodded beside him.

Although Uncle Chen is pedantic, he is very obsessed with food. Besides, he doesn't want it for nothing, but spends money to buy it, so there is no problem.

"no problem."

Before Ye Lin could speak, Li Ran said first, and after that, he turned around and said to Ye Qi: "Go and take out our grain book, and then go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy the coarse grains back."

"Mom, my brother has bought our coarse grains."

"Uh!" Li Ran was stunned for a moment and asked, "When did it happen?"

“It’s been a while.”

Li Ran looked at Ye Lin, and Ye Lin nodded with a wry smile. He bought all the coarse grains at home for the past two months and gave them to Chen Jing in two times.

"Teacher Li, forget it if you don't." Uncle Jiang couldn't understand what was going on, so he hurriedly said.

"Wait, I'll get you coarse grains."

After saying that, Ye Lin ran out because he remembered someone, Grandma Liu. Because of their help, Grandma Liu basically didn't use a grain book, so Grandma Liu should have a lot of coarse grains on Grandma Liu's grain book.

And last time, Grandma Liu told Ye Lin that she asked him to buy back the grain from the grain book and give it to whoever needs it. Ye Lin forgot about this when he was busy.

When Ye Lin came to the intermediate yard, Grandma Liu was basking in the sun in the yard.

"Grandma, I'm here."

"Oh, it's my eldest grandson! Come and sit down." Grandma Liu patted a chair next to her.

"Grandma, I won't sit down. That's it. Let me get a grain book. Don't you still have a lot of grain on the grain book? I want to buy it for those in need."

"Ah! This is a good thing, grandson, wait, grandma will get it for you now."

"Um."

Although the old lady lived alone all her life, she was very helpful. Whether it was people in the slums or outside, she would help her. Of course, that's what she said was that in the past, now she could only care about herself and could no longer help others.

I can't help others in action, but I can do it elsewhere, for example, the elderly would rather eat less than see children in the slums not having enough food.

Grandma Liu soon came out of the house and handed the grain book to Ye Lin and said, "Good grandson, go and buy all the grain."

"Well, I know grandma, oh by the way, my mom cooks a lot of supper, so you don't want to cook dinner. I'll send it to you later."

"No, I'm not hungry at night, just make some porridge later."

"Grandma, you have already done it. Don't bother me again. Just like that, I'll send it to you later." After that, Ye Lin ran away.

Seeing Ye Lin's back, Grandma Liu smiled and shook her head. There were dozens of children in the entire slum, and her favorite was Ye Lin, even Ye Qi couldn't do it. Of course, it might be because Ye Lin was raised by her.

But this is not right. Ye Qi was also raised by Grandma Liu. At that time, Li Ran had to go to work, and no one was taken over by Ye Qi and Ye Lin. Grandma Liu took the initiative to take care of him and Ye Qi.

Both of them were still young at that time. Although Ye Lin was sensible, he didn't want to stay in the same place all the time. He always wanted to go out to play, and Ye Qi was the same.

Although Grandma Liu's health was better than she is now, she could not see the two children who were heading east and west. She had no choice but to tie the legs of the two people with a rope and tied them to the pillars in the yard.

Ye Qi may not remember it anymore, but Ye Lin remembered it clearly, but he did not blame Grandma Liu, because he knew that Grandma Liu was also for their own good.

Ye Lin did not go home, so he took the grain book to the supply and marketing cooperative.

The aunts from the supply and marketing cooperative knew Ye Lin. When they saw him coming, they greeted him and asked, "Ersha, why are you here? Are you going to buy something?"

"Yes, I'll buy food."

"Buy grain? Haven't your family bought the grain?"

Everyone lives on the same street, knows each other, and knows who is in the family and what is happening, not to mention that they are doing this job, of course they know that Ye Lin’s family has no food to buy this month.

"I bought it for Grandma Liu, this is a grain book." Ye Lin handed over the grain book.

The aunt took the grain book over and looked at it, frowned and said, "Ersha, how much do you want to buy for Grandma Liu?"

"I bought all except white flour."

"Uh, then wait a moment, I'll go and tell the director."

Shortly after the aunt entered, the director came out with the grain book. When he saw Ye Lin, he said, "Ersha, do you want to buy all the coarse grains in the grain book?"

“Yes, I bought them all.”

"It's such a fool. The grain book bought five kilograms of coarse grain every month in the first eight months. In theory, there are still ten kilograms left every month, but according to the latest quantities, there are only ten kilograms of coarse grains per month, so the previous eight months can only give another five kilograms per month."

Before the new quantity, each person had fifteen kilograms of coarse grains and three kilograms of fine grains per month. Grandma Liu bought three kilograms of fine grains and five kilograms of coarse grains every month. In addition, Ye Lin's family helped some, which was enough for Grandma Liu to eat.

So she should have ten kilograms of coarse grains every month. Originally, Ye Lin thought that Grandma Liu had not bought any grains in the past two months, and in the first eight months, there were one hundred kilograms of coarse grains.
