It was a simple wooden house, about 30 square meters. The only electrical device in the house was probably the orange light bulb on the roof.
Other than that, there were three door-like objects on the floor. There was not even a chair, let alone a bed.
This was the room Old Sixth Wen was referring to.
"The conditions are too harsh." Chicken Heart and the others frowned while Leng Sen held Old Sixth Wen's hand and thanked him profusely,""Thank you, Sixth Brother."
"The conditions here are a little bad. I'll get my wife to bring you some food and cotton wool in a while. You can make do with it and rest first.”
Wen Laoliu did not know the background of Leng Sen and the others, so he treated them as ordinary smugglers and did not pay much attention to the expressions of Ji Xin and the others.
"Oh, right, it's not a big deal to be injured. I have medicine at home.”
"Don't worry, I had a brother who was shot several times in the past. He applied some medicine and survived.”
"Gun?"
When Leng Sen heard this, he was stunned at first, then he said in realization,"Sixth Brother was a soldier before?"
"Sigh, it was many years ago. Alright, you guys rest first. I'll go back and get the medicine.”Sixth Elder Wen looked nostalgic and instantly came back to his senses. It seemed like he didn't want to say anything more.
His actions were indeed very military. As soon as he finished speaking, he left without delay.
Seeing him leave, Chicken Heart and the others complained,""Sen, are we staying here?”
"A real man can yield and stretch. As long as we have a roof to cover our heads, it's enough for us.”Leng Sen nodded and sat down. He looked at Li Changjiang, who was leaning against the wall, and said,"Changjiang, please bear with it. We can't go to the doctor in our current condition.”
"You have a knife wound on your body. The doctor can't explain it clearly, and you can't take out your ID card.”
"Sen, I'm fine." Li Changjiang was very sensible and nodded repeatedly.
The two brothers sat down helplessly, but they immediately asked curiously,""Sen, when are we going to do big business?”
"No rush. Give me some time. I need to figure out the situation in Xiangjiang City first.”Leng Sen glanced at the two of them and replied indifferently.
" Oh…" The two brothers didn't object. They were very obedient on this matter.
Chang Man did not say a word from the beginning to the end. After helping Li Changjiang sit down, she took a broom from the door and started cleaning the simple house.
………………
About five minutes later.
The sounds of men and women quarreling and the sound of footsteps approaching came from afar. Old Sixth Wen appeared once again with an ordinary-looking woman in her forties beside him.
Behind the two of them were eight young men and women.
The man and woman looked young. The oldest was only twenty-four or twenty-five, and the youngest was fifteen or sixteen.
Each of them was holding something in their hands. There was a blanket, cotton wool, a towel, and a basin.
After entering, everyone except Wen Laoliu looked at Leng Sen and the others curiously.
Leng Sen stood up immediately and said,"Sixth Brother, I've troubled you too much. Who are these people?”
"This is my wife, and these are my children.”After a brief introduction, Old Sixth Wen turned around and said solemnly,""Hurry up and call for help!"
"What should I call this?" Even Old Sixth's wife was confused, let alone his children.
After all, although Leng Sen was tall and burly, he didn't look very old. He was only in his twenties. However, he addressed Old Sixth Wen as " Sixth Brother ".
In other words, Old Sixth Wen's children all had to call him uncle.
Leng Sen was very understanding and saw the problem. He smiled and said,"Let's talk about our own things. My name is Leng Sen. You can call me Brother Leng or Brother Sen.”
Leng Sen then took the initiative to greet Old Sixth Wen's wife,""Sister-in-law."
Old Sixth Wen's wife looked like an ordinary village woman. She was honest and quiet. She smiled and nodded.
On the other hand, Old Sixth Wen's children were more active. A few of them immediately said,""Brother Sen."
Unexpectedly, Old Sixth Wen's face turned stiff. He turned around and said sternly,""No, seniority is seniority. Let's greet each other again and call him Uncle Leng.”
Err…!
The children seemed to be used to Wen Laoliu's teachings as well. With a bitter face, they said weakly,""Uncle Leng."
Then, under the leadership of Old Sixth Wen, they called out to Chicken Heart and the others.
They finally knew each other!
This Old Sixth Wen was quite impressive. He actually had four boys and four girls at home. According to him, he used to be a soldier. After his defeat, he came to Xiangjiang, then moved to Tiaojing Ridge and finally settled down here.
He was not the only one. Almost ninety percent of the residents of Tiaojing Ridge were the same.
As for the remaining level, it was the same as Leng Sen and the others. They were stowaways who had accidentally come to Tiaojing Ridge. They felt that the people here were friendly and would not look down on the mainlanders, so they decided to live here.
Then, Old Sixth Wen called his wife and children to help him clean up and make the bed. He also handed a few bottles of medicinal wine and two cans of powdered medicine to Leng Sen to apply the medicine on Li Changjiang.
Of course, it wasn't that he didn't want to help. It was just that Leng Sen was afraid that Li Changjiang's knife wound would be exposed and he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly, so he took over.
He had been busy for more than two hours.
As they busied themselves, the number of people decreased. Six of Wen Laoliu's eight children were still in school. When the time came, they left.
In the end, only Leng Sen and the others, Wen Laoliu and his wife, and his two eldest sons were left.
"Brother Leng, you guys rest for a while. I'll ask your sister-in-law to cook. Let's have a good drink at noon!”After he was done packing, Old Sixth Wen was very chivalrous and wanted to entertain Leng Sen and the others.
When Leng Sen heard this, he immediately took out 1,000 yuan and handed it over."Sixth brother, we can't trouble you anymore. We're already very satisfied to have a place to stay. You have to eat lunch, but it's on us.”
"Take it back. You've just arrived, so there are still many places where you need money. There's no need to say anything else. In the future, when you guys have a firm foothold here, even if you don't invite me, I won't agree.”
"Today, I am the host. The guest will follow the host. You have to listen to me.”
Old Sixth Wen waved at his wife and children and left the house.
Leng Sen's keen observation skills clearly saw the eagerness in his wife's eyes when he took out the money.
Combined with the quilt that Old Sixth Wen had sent over, which was patched and old, it was not difficult for Leng Sen to tell that he was also very sad.
It was easy to guess what kind of burden it was to raise eight children. Normal families would have a headache, let alone those who lived in Tiaojing Ridge.
Even under such circumstances, Old Sixth Wen was still willing to take them in and treat them to a meal. He really owed them a lot.
Leng Sen would remember the kindness in his heart and would not complain about returning it. He would naturally take action to express it.
Sitting back on the wooden board that had been covered with cotton wool, Leng Sen called out,"Chicken Heart, Changjiang, Ah Man, go to sleep.”
Chicken Heart and the others naturally did not have any objections. After a night of traveling on the boat, they were indeed tired after running around in the morning.
They all chose a wooden bed, lay down, and closed their eyes. They fell asleep in less than a minute…
