Chapter 427 - 426: Uncle Pei Ke
On the way back to the hotel, Shen Mingzhu passed by a pharmacy and stopped by to buy some emergency medical supplies, baby mosquito repellent, and medicine oil for treating mosquito bites that were not available in Fengcheng.
Mingzhu’s skin was delicate and she always attracted mosquitoes; a single bite would result in a big red bump.
When settling the bill, she saw adhesive bandages on the shelf next to the cashier and casually picked up two large boxes.
Adhesive bandages were also rarely seen in Fengcheng, and they were difficult to find in general pharmacies.
Back in her hotel room, Shen Mingzhu remembered the red envelope given by Pei Ke and opened it to find, surprisingly, five one-thousand Hong Kong dollar bills.
Pei Ke lived in public housing and his home was also quite simply furnished, not looking like he was particularly well off.
However, considering he had been struggling in Hong City for over a decade or two, and was not married, it wasn’t strange he had saved some money.
With this thought, Shen Mingzhu comfortably tucked the five Hong Kong dollars into her wallet, planning to go to the mall and buy some snacks and toys for the children when she had time.
In the evening, Shen Mingzhu declined Yan Su’s invitation to go out and instead went to the baking kitchen alone to practice making the pastries she planned to prepare for the next day.
The charity gala was organized by a very famous charitable foundation in Hong City. The venue, food, and beverages for the dinner were sponsored by various families or businesses.
