Chapter 683: The Girl Buried Alive by Bullies (2)
Pushing open the door of the next room, she looked at Grandpa Feng's old face with a slight pain in it.
Seeing Su Li coming in, he quickly restrained himself and showed a relaxed expression, "Xiangxiang, what's wrong? Is there something you want to talk to grandpa about?"
"Are you okay? I heard you coughing, so I brought you a glass of water." Su Li said with a chuckle.
"Oh, grandpa just choked when swallowing his saliva. I hope it didn't disturb you from doing your homework?" Even though the old man felt uncomfortable, he was worried that his cough would affect his granddaughter's study.
"No, I have finished my homework." Su Li smiled sweetly.
She looked around Grandpa Feng's room, where there was a simple bed made of a few wooden boards and bricks.
Although the quilt had many patches, it was clean and had a hint of sunshine.
In comparison, the original room was pretty good.
"Xiangxiang, go back and rest. You have to get up early to study tomorrow!" Grandpa Feng said softly.
"Well, then you drink the water and I'll go over first." Su Li said softly.
Grandpa Feng took a sip carefully and said, "This water is really sweet."
Then, he drank it all in one gulp.
Su Li then returned to her room carrying the empty cup of water.
Although the house that the Feng family rents has two bedrooms, it is actually just one bedroom and one living room.
The place where Grandpa Feng sleeps is made of bed boards at night and serves as the dining room during the day.
Although this place is in the county town, it is actually just a converted underground garage of someone else. Not only does it not even have a window, but it also needs to rely on lights for lighting on weekdays.
Moreover, when it rains, the whole house becomes very damp.
If you are unlucky, the heavy rain may even flood your calves.
Su Li felt that the first thing he should do when he arrived was to improve the living environment.
The next day is Sunday.
Senior high school students have a half-day break and go to school at two o'clock in the afternoon.
Su Li planned to use this half day to change the residence for her and Grandpa Feng.
She transformed her defensive robe into a fitted suit and let her ponytail down.
Afterwards, he took the gold and silver treasures looted from the previous world with the companion space and went to the major gold shops in the county.
Before long, a seven-digit balance appeared in her new bank card.
Houses in this county town are not expensive. A small new three-bedroom house with renovation costs only about 500,000 or 600,000 yuan.
However, Su Li did not consider these things, after all, decoration was too time-consuming.
She found an agent and asked her to find her a well-decorated second-hand house with complete furniture and appliances. She got the property certificate in just one morning.
Because his granddaughter was resting, Grandpa Feng did not go to collect the waste.
He thought of going to the vegetable market to buy some meat and bones to nourish his granddaughter.
Seeing that Su Li was not at home, he just thought that she had gone out to play with her classmates.
Until Su Li came back with a bright red property certificate, "Grandpa, look, what is this?"
Grandpa Feng blinked twice, wiped his hands on his apron, and then took the property deed with trembling hands, "This, this is..."
When he saw the three big words "Feng Lingxiang" on the property title.
He looked at Su Li in disbelief, "Kid, where did this house come from? We are all honest common people, we must be down-to-earth!"
Su Li laughed and handed him a bunch of keys. "Grandpa, don't worry. The money to buy the house is what I won in the lottery yesterday! I went to claim the prize today and bought the house at the same time."
Then, she took out the bank card she had just applied for, "Grandpa, there are still more than 300,000 yuan here, let's keep it for use. The house is a well-decorated second-hand house, you can move in right away."
"Lottery?" Grandpa Feng knew about this thing. If you were lucky, you could become rich overnight.
He took it seriously and asked, "Where did you get the money to buy the lottery tickets?"
"I saved the money by picking up bottles every day. I just bought one and won! Grandpa, do you think our parents are blessing us in heaven?" Su Li mentioned his original parents in the hope that the old man could rest assured.
"Well, fine. Grandpa will keep the money for you first. When you go to college, you will need a lot of money." Grandpa Feng nodded and put away the bank card.
He took out the bowl and chopsticks from the cupboard beside him and said, "Let's eat first, and then we'll go see the new house."
Grandpa Feng actually knows that the environment they live in now is too humid and his granddaughter will easily suffer from rheumatoid arthritis in the future.
So, he tried to take out the quilt to dry in the sun every day.
Now, their granddaughter was lucky enough to win the lottery and bought a house, so they can finally move away.
The grandfather and grandson quickly finished their meal, packed up their things and used Grandpa Feng's scrap tricycle to drag their things to the house that Su Li had just bought.
"This, this house is too high-end, right?" Grandpa Feng's heart was beating very fast.
He never thought that he would be able to live in such a bright and spacious elevator apartment in his lifetime, which was only available to rich people.
Old people like him who pick up waste will be driven away as soon as they reach the gate of the community.
"Okay, Grandpa, don't think too much. From now on, this is our home!"
Su Li chuckled and said, "When I get first place in the college entrance examination, I heard there will be a lot of bonus! From now on, don't pick up waste anymore. Just live out your days peacefully like the old men and women in the community."
Su Li didn't say anything about selling blood.
In fact, the original body also knew it, but she never dared to mention it for fear of upsetting her grandfather.
"But, your university will cost a lot of money. And there's also the money that kind-hearted people donated to your parents. Grandpa has written it down and plans to return it to them when I have money..." Grandpa Feng hesitated.
He also knew that his picking up waste might make his granddaughter lose face at school.
But what can an old country man like him do?
He was old and uneducated, so no one wanted to hire him even at a construction site.
He could only make a living by picking up waste and selling blood.
"Then use this 300,000 yuan to pay off your debt first! Don't worry! I'm already grown up, and with my current grades, my tuition will be reduced or waived after I enter university, and I may even get subsidies. There's more time in university, and I can also do a part-time job or something." Su Li said softly.
"Okay. Grandpa will cook for you during this period to help you build up your body! By the way, I will return the money to those kind people." Grandpa Feng felt distressed when he saw Su Li's thin body.
In order to save money, he often picks up the vegetables that others have thrown away when the market is about to close.
It was rare for the grandfather and grandson to eat a bite of meat in a month.
Now that my granddaughter has won the lottery, there should be a lot of money left even after paying off her debts. It’s time to give her some good compensation.
After all, the hardest-working people right now are the students, especially those in their senior year of high school.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Grandpa!"
Su Li hugged him and started to pack her schoolbag. "Grandpa, I have to go to school. Don't touch the electrical appliances at home. I will teach you how to use them when I come back in the evening."
It was already past one o'clock and she had to hurry to school.
She wanted to meet the three guys who bullied her original body and teach them how to behave.
After Su Li left, Grandpa Feng took out the portraits of his son, daughter-in-law and wife from his luggage.
He stroked the frame with tears in his eyes, "Xiangxiang is grown up now and more sensible. Rest in peace!"
