The next day, Gu An Ling got up early and went shopping with Lin Xi'er.
Today is Sunday. Gu anling and Lin Xi'er decide to go shopping together. Originally, Gu anling planned to wait for Cheng Mengya to complain at home, but after thinking about it, she decided to go shopping.
After all, Anze Cheng is not at home, and she doesn't want to face her alone.
Two people buy good things and walk home.
"I want to buy a cup of milk tea. Would you like it?" Two people walking on the path, Linxi Er asked.
Two people strolled all afternoon, it was getting dark, and they didn't drink anything. Now they felt very thirsty.
"Drink, I'll buy it. You wait here to see the clothes and what you want with them."
Gu anling hands things to linxi'er, let her wait in the roadside.
"Caramel Milk Tea, light sugar, ice and pearl."
"Good."
Lin Xi'er is sitting on the side of the road waiting for Gu anling, who is coming back soon.
"Little girl, can you do me a favor..."
An old voice rang up beside linxi'er.
"What?"
Linxi'er looked down at her. She saw a ragged grandmother and a piggyback grandfather standing beside her. Their muddy eyes were looking at her.
Linxi son some don't know what's going on, listen to the old woman continue to say.
"My wife and I are here to find our son..."
The old lady was embarrassed to cover the hole in her clothes and said slowly to linxi'er, "my son has been working here for several years and has not gone home. My wife and I have no income at home, so we want to come and join him..."
"Who knows, after coming here, my son and daughter-in-law didn't recognize us. After scolding us, they drove us out again. Now we don't have any money on us. My wife and I haven't eaten for several days. Little girl, could you please buy us something to eat?"
The old woman sobbed and wiped her tears with the corner of her clothes. She was very pitiful.
Lindsey blinked and looked at them seriously.
Their clothes look old and dirty, and there are many holes in them. The two old men's faces are dry, wrinkled, and almost skin and bone. They are wearing rag shoes on their feet, which are covered with dust and the edges are worn out.
It seems that what they said should be true. Linxi'er has lived a hard life, so she sympathizes with these people very much. If she can help them, she will help them.
I also hate people who don't recognize their parents when they have the ability.
"Well, I have some bread in my schoolbag. Here you are."
Seeing that they were so poor, Lin Xi'er quickly took down the schoolbag on her back, opened it, took out the bread from it and handed it to the two old men.
"Thank you Thank you... " The old lady reached out to take the bread that linxi'er had handed her, looked down and gave it to linxi'er carefully, then gave it back to linxi'er tremblingly:
"little girl, your bread should not be cheap We are both so old. How can we have a little girl's snack Take it and keep it for yourself when you are hungry, that is Can we buy a steamed bread for our old couple... "
"It's OK. It's not expensive. You eat first, and I'll buy you something else."
Lin Xi'er waved to them, then looked around and said:
"there's a restaurant over there. The food in it is delicious. My friends and I often go to eat. Let me take you there for dinner."
"No, No." The old lady quickly waved her hand and said: "how can I make you spend money? We just need to eat steamed bread and drink water."
"No, really, that restaurant is cheap and delicious! You can eat more, have enough and go home early. "
Lin Xi'er blinked her eyes and said with a smile:
"besides, it's just a meal. It's really not expensive."
"But our old couple are dressed in such rags that we are really embarrassed to go to the restaurant for dinner..."
The old lady was a little embarrassed and said:
"there is a steamed bread shop in the alley over there. Little girl, can you take us to buy a steamed bread?"
"Ah?"
Lin Xi'er was stunned for a moment. Then she reached out and took out 50 yuan from her pocket and said:
"no way, I'll wait for my friend here, or she won't find me when she comes back, or I'll give you money and you can buy it yourself."
The two old men looked at each other, and then the old woman shook her head at linxi'er and said:
"not so much money, not so much money Really, it's in the alley across the road. You can go and buy it with us. "
“……”Linxier listen to her words, feel a little strange, she looked up at the alley across the road, the sun is about to set, the alley looks black, inexplicably let her have a bad premonition.
She frowned and said to the old woman:
"why do I have to accompany you to buy food? I told you that I would wait for my friend here. I don't want to take you to dinner or give you money to buy food. I don't want to accompany you."
"No..."
After hearing Lin Xi'er's words, the old woman couldn't help but talk awkwardly:
"we just feel embarrassed to take the little girl's pocket money Looking at your age is also very big, I'm sure I won't make money. Then your money is not good. I think you bought it for us in the past, and you can still take the money you got back by yourself... "
"No, no, I still have the money. Take it and buy something to eat."
Lindsey put the fifty dollars directly into Grandma's hand.
"This..."
The old woman took the money in her hand and turned her head to look at the old man standing beside her.
The old man stared at the old woman for a while, then winked at her.
The old lady immediately stepped forward, grabbed Lin Xi'er's wrist with a shriveled and wrinkled hand, and begged: "little girl, please accompany us. There are so many cars on this road. Our eyes are not good and it's not very convenient to cross the road. Why don't you send us two across the road?"
"No, I can't say it anymore. Why are you holding my hand?"
Linxi'er was not willing to earn, trying to free her wrist from the old woman's hand.
"You little girl, how can you be so stubborn? Your teacher didn't teach you to respect the old and love the young and help the old granny cross the road?"
The grandfather, who had been standing there and didn't speak, now reached out and tugged at Lin Xi'er's wrist to pull her away.
