Chapter 20: Giving good deeds, a trip to the slums

Gu Shuixiu and Dong Chenghu thanked them again and again, the yacha and his companions paid the copper and left. The two smiled at each other, slowly ate the wontons, and then left with ease.

"Chenghu, let's go buy 200 steamed buns and do a good deed!" Gu Shuixiu's voice was full of joy, and Dong Chenghu followed suit.

The two packed all the steamed buns on the main street, and then asked each boss to send the things to the slums.

There are many ragged old people and children, and some frail women in the slum. Those with a little working ability probably went out begging or looking for a living. Everyone was pale and looked extremely malnourished, especially seeing the appearance of those children, Gu Shuixiu wanted to cry.

Even the bosses who brought the steamed buns couldn't bear it.

The people in the slums saw Gu Shuixiu's group of people being wary at first, and then they all swallowed when they asked about the smell of steamed buns in the air. Although everyone wanted to eat it, no one took the initiative to ask for it. No one took the initiative to ask questions.

Gu Shuixiu found a relatively clever child in the crowd and asked gently, "Little baby, what's your name?"

The child saw Gu Shuixiu's gentle face, his eyes were less guarded, he looked at them curiously, and said with a milky voice, "My name is Tie Dan."

"Where are your parents?"

Tidan shook his head, "I don't have parents, just my grandma, she's over there."

Gu Shuixiu followed the direction of Tie Dan's finger and saw a weak old man looking at Tie Dan worriedly.

Gu Shuixiu had a sour heart and asked Tiedan, "What's wrong with your grandma?"

"Grandma is not well and can only lie down."

"Then what do you usually eat?" A boss couldn't help asking.

Tie Dan's eyes were clear, and his tone was somewhat reliant: "Uncle Mu will take other uncles and brothers out every day to ask for food, and we will all share some, Uncle Mu will not let me and grandma go hungry. arrived."

Gu Shuixiu sighed deeply.

Dong Chenghu pulled her aside, the two of them summed up, Gu Shuixiu returned to the little boy, and said gently: "Little baby, my sister brought you some food, here is There are 200 steamed buns, you can divide them up, remember not to grab them, and later my sister will bring the doctor to see your grandma."

The little doll drooled while holding a big steamed bun, but he held back and went to his grandma's side with the big steamed bun, insisting on giving the steamed bun to grandma.

The child's grandma was so distressed that she wept so much, she knelt down and kowtowed to Gu Shuixiu and the others, and the others followed and bowed to them.

Gu Shuixiu and Dong Chenghu were startled, they quickly gave them the steamed buns and left.

The bosses who bought the steamed buns saw the situation in the slum, and learned that Gu Shuixiu and his wife were doing good deeds, and they even paid less coins. The two hundred steamed buns cost only 80 cents.

The two inquired about for a long time in the alley. They heard that an old doctor surnamed He was kind-hearted and had good medical skills. They immediately went to find Doctor He and went to the slum together.

The little boy's grandmother thought Gu Shuixiu was just talking, but she didn't expect that she actually hired a doctor for her. Immediately she was so grateful that she wanted to be a cow and a horse for Gu Shuixiu. She didn't really care about her own life, but her grandson was still young. What would happen to the child after she died? Gu Shuixiu's arrival was like giving her a second life, so don't say how grateful the old lady is.

Doctor He didn't change his face when he arrived in the slum, and immediately prescribed medicine to the little boy's grandmother. Gu Shuixiu took the time to ask Dr. He to check the pulse of everyone else, prescribe medicine for those who are sick, and take care of those who are not sick.

There was a lot of laughter in the slum.

Dr. He gave Gu Shuixiu a stack of prescriptions after seeing the disease. Gu Shuixiu ordered about 20 of them. The little boy's grandmother looked at the prescriptions and thought of the money, and suddenly panicked. . She wanted to speak so that Gu Shuixiu wouldn't have to spend money for her, but seeing that the little grandson on the side couldn't speak, she suffered like that.

Gu Shuixiu didn't know what the old lady was thinking at all, so she took the prescription and went to the pharmacy mentioned by the yacha to get the medicine.

When the couple sent the medicinal materials to the slums, all those who went out to beg came back.

Song Youxin and a group of people looked at Gu Shuixiu and his wife, and Gu Shuixiu and his wife also looked at Song Youxin and the others. Song Youxin didn't look like an ordinary person. The people in Song Youxin's group don't look like vulnerable groups. It seems that these people have other purposes in staying in the slums. Gu Shuixiu became more cautious.

Song Youxin looked after Gu Shuixiu and his wife wearing only ordinary sackcloth and linen, how could such a person have the ability to give alms to the slums? Therefore, he was a little more vigilant towards Gu Shuixiu and his wife.

Dong Chenghu put Gu Shuixiu behind him at this time, and without saying a word, took the medicinal herbs in front of those who saw the doctor before, and said in a deep voice, "These medicinal herbs are all prescribed by Doctor He. If the medicine is prescribed, you should drink it once a day in the morning and evening, and if the medicine is not completely healed after taking it, you can take the prescription and go to the medicine again.”

Dong Chenghu pulled Gu Shuixiu and left.

At this time, Song Youxin said, "I don't know what to call this Xiongtai?"

Dong Chenghu looked at Song Youxin, looked at Gu Shuixiu, and said vigilantly, "Our husband and wife are just doing good deeds every day, Xiongtai doesn't need to ask our names, and we probably won't come again in the future."

Song Youxin saw that they were about to leave. Only then did he confirm that Gu Shuixiu and his wife were not aiming for them, and a smile appeared on his face immediately.

It seems that you really came here to do good, but we were abrupt."

Song Youxin said this, but Dong Chenghu didn't know how to answer.

Gu Shuixiu stood up from behind Dong Chenghu with a smile, "This must be the Uncle Mu the little boy said, Mr. Mu, our husband and wife will get some windfall because of fate, I am the head of the family. He is an honest person and thinks it is uneasy to keep the money, so we came to the slum today and use the money to do some good deeds. You don’t have to worry about it, Mr. Mu, now that all the things we should do have been done, it is time to leave.”

Gu Shuixiu finished speaking, took Dong Chenghu's hand, nodded to Song Youxin, and left quickly.

The people around Song Youxin wanted to stop them, but Song Youxin stopped them.

"Brother Mu, why don't you keep them, what if they have other purposes?" One person looked at Song Youxin with disapproval.

Song Youxin looked at Gu Shuixiu and her husband in a thoughtful direction, and then pondered for a long time: "This couple is not ordinary people at first glance, especially that woman, I can see from their eyes. If you don’t see any malice here, let’s do it first.”
