Chapter 6： little beggar

At the entrance of the hospital, Zhou Cheng carried the little beggar out of the car, and Pei Xiu went in with him.

The doctor sitting in the hall looked at the little beggar in Zhou Cheng's arms, and at Pei Xiu's bandaged head, and asked, ''Who of you sees a doctor? ''

Zhou Cheng sat down with the little beggar in his arms and said, ''Let's show him, and he fell on the side of the road. ''

The doctor took the lower pulse and said, ''He is hungry, give him something to eat to wake up''.

''Then I'll go buy buns. You take this child to the car and wait for me. ''

''Let's go together. Since he has nothing to do, buy him some steamed buns, and when he wakes up, put him down. '' Zhou Cheng took the little beggar out and put it on the cart.

Pei Xiu bought ten steamed buns and ten meat buns. First, he tore a small piece of steamed bun and put it in the mouth of the little beggar, and then gave him a drink. Maybe it was choking. The little beggar coughed a few times and woke up. Pei Xiu handed him the steamed bun. The little beggar glanced at Pei Xiu and said thank you, took the steamed bun and ate it. Very gentle, they didn't gobble it, maybe it's rare to eat white flour steamed buns, and they cherish them.

''Since you're awake and it's alright, come down, take these steamed buns, we're leaving. '' Zhou Cheng said to the little beggar, and the little beggar climbed out of the car and looked at Zhou Cheng and didn't dare to speak, and then looked at Pei Xiu. The expression of longing, but said nothing, wiped a tear with his sleeve, and stood on the side of the road.

Zhou Cheng stuffed the steamed buns into the little beggar's arms and pushed the trolley. Ask, ''What else is there to buy next. ''

''I have to buy seasonings and meat. ’’ The two then went to the grocery store and bought salt, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, and when they saw **** and red dates, they also bought some. When he came out, he found that the little beggar was squatting diagonally across from the grocery store holding the steamed buns. Pei Xiu glanced at Zhou Cheng, and Zhou Cheng said to Pei Xiu: ''Let's go. ’’ The conditions of the two are not well-off, and there are three children in the family, so there is no way to show kindness.

The two went to the pork stall again, and the little beggar fell behind.

Fifteen cents for a pound of fat, twelve cents for lean meat, and ten cents for a pair of pigs. Pei Xiu asked for three catties of fat meat, one catty of lean meat, and a pair of pig water. The bones were shaved and thrown aside, no one wanted it, and the stall owner was reluctant to give it away. He took it home and cooked it, and he could see the oil flowers anyway.

Pei Xiu spent another two cents to buy all the bones. She was expressionless on the surface, and she only said that it was too cheap. Except for Zhou Chengcheng, who is too thin, sallow complexion, and malnourished, the three children are still growing, and the bones can still supplement calcium.

After buying everything, the two plan to go back and walk to the gate of the city. There are still three children at home.

The little beggar followed silently. He had nowhere to go. He had been wandering in the city all by himself, and every day counted. Now that he meets a kind-hearted couple, he doesn't want to burden others. He doesn't know what his parents are like. They are just like the parents he imagined, gentle and kind, and he just wants to be closer to them.

Until they left the city, the little beggar finally stopped following and stood outside the city gate and watched them. He can't cause them trouble, looking at their clothes, it's not a wealthy family, wandering in the city for so long, he has tasted the warmth and affection of human beings. Except for Grandpa Hai, they are the only ones who have given him warmth. He can't increase the burden on others, but tears can't help falling...

Pei Xiu felt uncomfortable when she saw the child standing outside the city gate and watched them cry. She looked at Zhou Cheng and hesitated. She also knew that this family was not well-off, but seeing the poor child's appearance, she couldn't bear it, and tugged at Zhou Cheng's clothes. Go to the child.

The little beggar looked at Pei Xiu and walked towards him, his eyes bright as if he was sucking in the stars in the sky.

''How old are you, why are you a beggar in the town? ''

The little beggar answered happily, ''I was five years old and came here begging with Grandpa Hai. I had been in Fucheng before, and I was often beaten when I couldn't eat enough. We left and walked here slowly. Grandpa Hai died of illness again. . Oh, Grandpa Hai is an old beggar who raised me. ''

The little beggar looked about the size of a bench. Pei Xiu thought he was about three or four years old, but he was five years old. ''what's your name? ''

The little beggar said sadly, ''I don't have a name, everyone just calls me little beggar''. The little beggar mustered up his courage and said boldly, "Auntie, can you take me in? I can do anything, as long as I have a bite to eat."

Pei Xiu looked at him as if his eyes were illuminated by starlight, full of anticipation, and like in the summer field, the open windows in the house were so frank and free of dirt. After wandering for so long and experiencing the coldness of the world, I didn't expect this child to have such innocent and pure eyes.

Pei Xiu turned to look at Zhou Cheng, Zhou Cheng looked at her clear eyes with anticipation, but he never realized that her eyes were so clear that he couldn't refuse. ' 'As you wish, you can do it as you please. ''

Pei Xiu's brows and eyes were curved and she said softly: "Look at our clothes, you should know that our family is not well-off, I can't guarantee that I will be full, but whatever my children eat, I will let you eat. . You have a pair of big clear eyes, I believe you will be a good boy, not a white-eyed wolf. ''

The little beggar nodded heavily, and swore in his heart that when he grew up, he would be filial to his uncle and aunt.

The two of them pushed the cart with the little beggar and asked while walking, which also eased Pei Xiu's embarrassment towards Zhou Cheng.
