Chapter 249: 084: Buying a house in full, strength suppression_4

Constantly facing bankruptcy.

Lin Wu gently patted the elderly woman’s back, beginning to comfort her, "Grandma Jin, don’t worry about it. You’re at such an advanced age, what kind of storm haven’t you been through? Everything will pass, and an eagle is always an eagle."

Grandma Lu lay on the table, a smile appearing at the corner of her mouth, but she quickly masked her facial expression, "Xiao Wu, it may be very difficult for our family to get back on our feet this time."

As she finished speaking, Grandma Lu continued, "I just saw many unwanted packing boxes downstairs in the store. Could you get someone to send those cardboard boxes to me? I already inquired at the recycling station; cardboard boxes are selling for one yuan per jin now! Although it isn’t a lot of money, it’s barely enough to cover my daily living expenses..."

"Of course." For Lin Wu, this was nothing. Although those cardboard boxes were collected for recycling every day, they didn’t sell for much money. It was better to give them to Grandma Lu, "I’ll go down and talk to them in a bit."

"Thank you, Xiao Wu. You are so kind." Grandma Lu hugged Lin Wu excitedly.

Lin Wu’s lips curved into a faint smile, "It’s the least I can do."

Grandma Lu kept sobbing.

She was an actress, especially skilled in playing tragic roles, managing to make it impossible to find any fault in her performance.

Lin Wu continued to comfort her, "Grandma Jin, if you encounter any difficulties in life, you can talk to me anytime. By the way, have you eaten today?"

Grandma Lu shook her head pitifully, "Not yet."

Lin Wu immediately stood up, "Come on, I’ll take you out for a meal."

South Street has all kinds of food.

When they left the house, they saw Lin Guixiang and Zhao Cuinong, who both greeted Grandma Lu very warmly. Learning that Grandma Lu’s family had gone bankrupt, their attitudes didn’t change at all; they even actively asked if there was any way they could help.

Knowing that Lin Wu was taking Grandma Lu out to eat, Lin Guixiang smiled and reminded, "Take your Grandma Jin for something delicious."

Possibly because she lost her mother at a very young age, Lin Guixiang felt she had a special connection with Grandma Lu, almost as if she could see her mother’s shadow in Grandma Lu’s face.

But she clearly didn’t know Grandma Lu before.

"Okay." Lin Wu nodded slightly.

The two of them went for a delicious meal of hand-grabbed rice, and afterwards, Lin Wu also took Grandma Lu to buy a big bag of spicy strips and ’happy water’ for fatties.

After eating and drinking their fill, Grandma Lu actually pushed over a second-hand tricycle filled with cardboard boxes, "Xiao Wu, look, this is the equipment I use for collecting waste."

If you’re going to play, play for real.

Riding a tricycle to sell scrap wasn’t something Grandma Lu hadn’t done in her youth.

Lin Wu was taken aback, "Grandma Jin, can you really ride this tricycle by yourself?"

If it was fully loaded with stuff, it would weigh at least a hundred jin.

The old lady is ninety years old!

Grandma Lu pounded her chest and said, "Xiao Wu, don’t underestimate this old lady. I’ve done all sorts of things when I was young! Except for the slope on South Street, everywhere else is flat. I can handle it."

Soon, Grandma Lu had moved all the cardboard boxes into the tricycle. Watching the elderly woman bustling about, Lin Wu couldn’t help but give her a thumbs-up, "Grandma Jin, you’re amazing!"

Grandma Lu wore a look of proud coquetry, "I told you, I’m trained."

Lin Wu accompanied Grandma Lu out of South Street, and when they reached the uphill section, Lin Wu pushed from behind while Grandma Lu pedaled hard at the front.

Feeling Lin Wu’s force behind the tricycle, Grandma Lu looked back at Lin Wu.

A girl of seventeen or eighteen.

She dressed simply, yet she was so captivatingly beautiful.

Moreover, Lin Wu did not feel embarrassed to help push the tricycle for Grandma Lu. From beginning to end, she maintained a composed and gracious demeanor that made her increasingly likable.

Grandma Lu watched Lin Wu, the smile at the corner of her mouth becoming deeper and deeper.

This bet...

Bai Lu was bound to lose.

This granddaughter-in-law of hers had to be Lin Wu.

In the evening.

Zhao Cuinong drove Lin Wu and Lin Guixiang back home.

Seeing that she had bought a new car, the neighbors in the small courtyard all came forward to congratulate her, "Cui Nong has bought a new car!"

"Congratulations, congratulations."

In a short period of time, not only had she bought a car but also a house. Zhao Cuinong was naturally happy, but she still remained modest, laughing and saying, "Thank you, it didn’t cost much."

"You’re already very impressive for a woman!"

"Indeed, indeed."

With the sale of the Sun Family’s supermarket, Lin Guimei didn’t have to work there anymore. She went herself every day to pick up Shan Shan from her tutoring classes.

Just as she entered the courtyard, she heard the neighbors’ voices of congratulations.

Shan Shan also heard the voices and tugged at Lin Guimei’s clothes, frowning and saying, "Mom, did Auntie buy a car?"
