What is Jiang Lu going to do?It's not a bad thing, it's just that it's somewhat disgraceful to say it, and she followed the stone.

Shi Shi ran ahead, and Zhou Chunhe followed on a bicycle.Shitou looked like he worked a lot and was used to running. He ran for more than [-] minutes at a stretch without panting. Zhou Chunhe was a little tired from pedaling.

"It's turning a corner, hurry up and follow." Jiang Lu watched nervously from behind.

"Did this kid grow up eating rocks? He doesn't take a break." Zhou Chunhe muttered.

Jiang Lu patted him on the back, "Comrade Zhou Chunhe, you have to get old, you can't catch up with young people."

This trick really worked, Zhou Chunhe seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and the wind was blowing under his feet to follow.

Jiang Lu thought, men are really easy to coax.

The stone made several turns and turned to a bungalow area. At a glance, they were all brick and tile houses. Looking across the river from the modern high-rise buildings, although they were in the same city, they were two completely different worlds.

Jiang Lu could tell at a glance that this was a "slum area", where several families lived in one courtyard.

Stone saw that he had entered a door and was nowhere to be seen.

"What should we do now?" Zhou Chunhe stood on one foot and asked the military division.

"Will you be acting?" Jiang Lu winked at him.

"Tell me, how do you act?" Zhou Chunhe felt very excited.

Jiang Lu whispered something in his ear.

Zhou Chunhe was startled when he heard that, "Where did you learn all this?"

"Brought from the womb." Jiang Lu smiled.

Zhou Chunhe didn't believe it, so he stopped asking.

The two stepped forward and knocked on the door of the house a few times.

After a while, footsteps sounded inside, and then the door was opened, and it was the stone that opened the door.

Jiang Lu and Zhou Chunhe looked at each other.

"Who are you looking for?" Shitou looked at the two of them warily.

"Hello, we specialize in collecting old copper coins. If there are any at home, we will recycle them at a high price." Jiang Lu asked with a professional smile.

"Collect copper coins? Can any copper coins be used?" Shitou asked, and looked at Zhou Chunhe again. Zhou Chunhe was probably tall and mighty, and he didn't look like a good person.

Jiang Lu checked him, and Zhou Chunhe smiled immediately, "It depends on the year, you can take a look."

"Then, wait a moment." Shitou concealed the door and went in again.

"Really?" Zhou Chunhe was surprised, "You don't really accept it, do you?"

"It's not impossible," Jiang Lu said.

"Stop making trouble, Zhou Huang's has as much as he wants." Zhou Chunhe lowered his voice and called.

"Why does mother have so many copper coins?" Jiang Lu was puzzled.

"You don't want to think about what my mother relies on for food."

Jiang Lu understood, isn't Tiao Dashen a good partner with copper coins? Go to her mother-in-law's place to look for it another day, maybe you can really find good things worth collecting, so you have to keep them well.

While talking, the door opened again, and it was Shitou who came to open the door, "You guys come in first, my mother is looking for it."

"Can we come in?" Jiang Lu asked again.

"It's okay, come in, it's just that the house is a little messy, don't hold it against you." Shitou smiled awkwardly.

Jiang Lu suddenly blamed himself for his abruptness, and felt anxious.

As soon as he entered the door, there was a violent coughing sound. It was a man's coughing sound. Judging from the sound, he must be seriously ill.

The yard was really as messy as the stone said, even worse than Jiang Lu imagined, with waste and sundries piled up everywhere.There is a house on each of the southeast, north and south sides, but except for the house in Shishi, the doors of the other two houses are closed tightly, and it doesn't look like there are people living there.

"Son, ask your neighbors to see if they have any," Jiang Lu said.

Shitou pointed to the other two families, "They've all moved away a long time ago."

"Then this yard is where your family lives?"

"Yeah." Stone nodded.

From this point of view, they lived quite spaciously. Although the yard was not big, it was still a serious courtyard house. Unfortunately, the owner's house didn't clean it up properly, which made the yard look dilapidated.

Jiang Lu also found that there were a lot of clothes drying in the yard.

How can a family have so many clothes?Jiang Lu was a little puzzled.

At this time, a woman came out of the room, dressed as thinly as a stone, and her head of hair stood out, as if it had been cut by someone with scissors.

"Mother, this is the one who collects copper coins." Shitou called.

Jiang Lu nodded to her with a hint of a smile.

The woman stepped forward and spread out a few copper coins in her hand, "Do you see how much these are worth?"

What kind of hands are those, red and swollen, the skin on the hands must have been soaked in water for a long time, the skin is as thin as a cicada's wing, frighteningly white, but the palms are frighteningly red.The back of the hand was cracked, exposing the scarlet flesh inside.Jiang Lu only glanced at it, then looked away. She seemed to understand how the clothes in the yard came from.If the guess is correct, these are all washed by Shitou's mother, and these clothes are obviously not their own, they are washed for others to earn some coolie money.

Shitou Niang, like Shitou, is wearing patch upon patch of clothes, but they are all clean.

Zhou Chunhe stepped forward and pretended to pick up the copper coin and looked at it carefully, but in fact he was flustered.

"Really?" Zhou Chunhe pulled his daughter-in-law and said in a low voice.

"Take it." Jiang Lu smiled at the mother and son over there.

"How much is it?" Zhou Chunhe asked again.

"How much money did you bring?"

"Dozens of dollars."

"Why so little?" Jiang Lu was a little surprised.

"You didn't say you did it when you went out today, and you didn't bring your wallet with you."

"Then give it all to them." Jiang Lu still smiled.

Zhou Chunhe took the order and walked towards the stone mother and son.

"These copper coins are not very valuable for collection, so they are not worth a lot of money. Are you still willing to sell them?"

Shitou's mother frowned, "How much is that worth?"

Zhou Chunhe glanced at his wife, and Jiang Lu nodded to her.

"60 yuan." Zhou Chunhe said.

"60 yuan?" Shitou's mother repeated, a little surprised.

"Sister, I'll add another 100 yuan, [-] yuan, you can see if you can sell it or not." Jiang Lu stepped forward and said.

"Sell, sell, sell!" The woman wept with joy, she never thought that these copper coins could be so valuable.

Jiang Lu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's fine, if we still have us in the future."

"There are still some, but I won't be able to find where to put them for a while. If we find them, how can we contact you?" the woman asked eagerly.

"Well, I'll give you a call, and you can call me when the time comes." Jiang Lu looked around for paper.

"I'll get it." Shitou said hurriedly, and went into the house.

Zhou Chunhe handed the money in the pocket and the money in Jiang Lu's pocket to Shitou Niang. The woman's hand holding the money was trembling, and she couldn't believe that the money came so quickly.

Coughing sounded again in the room, and Jiang Lu asked casually, "Is that the child's father?"

"Yes, I'm bothering you." The woman yelled into the room, and the coughing in the room became less.

"Didn't you go to see it?" Jiang Lu asked.

"I saw it, why didn't I see it, but the doctor said this disease is ugly, I think it's not good to see it, and the money has been used up." The woman sighed, her eyes were lifeless, like this bleak winter in Beijing, Although the snow had stopped, the sky was still gray.

At this time, the yard door was pushed open, and two children, one big and one small, walked in. The youngest was five or six years old, and the oldest was only seven or eight years old. They were both dragging a snakeskin bag in their hands, apparently just returned from picking up trash.
