Chapter 1071： Chu Xiaobao's house 3

"My mother said that the family can only work hard to support the younger brother, the two of us lose money, and it's better to fend for ourselves.

There are many people like me here who were thrown out of their homes. Some parents starved to death and could only beg for food here.

We haven't been able to get food for many days, sister, if it weren't for your two steamed buns, my sister and I wouldn't know when we would be able to eat them. "The little girl said, a little worried, although she is young, she understands a lot of truths.

Children from poor families are in charge early. The poorer the children are, the more sensible they are. Unlike children in the 21st century, they are the little princesses of their parents at this age. so much.

Zhao Xiulan felt a little heavy after listening to the little girl's words.

She knew that there was a serious shortage of food in the northwest, but she didn't expect it to be so serious that the adults abandoned their children.

After thinking about it, I came all the way and saw a lot of children begging.

Especially girls, in this era, the atmosphere of patriarchal preference prevails, and it is really embarrassing to allow girls to fend for themselves.

Zhao Xiulan didn't know how to help these children, so she could only stuff a few more steamed buns for the child.

No amount of help she could do.

So many children, one by one to help, she is not so capable.

Also, she manages it for a while, but not for the rest of her life. They have to face the hardships and hardships of life by themselves.

After giving the steamed buns, the little girl hurriedly said a few words of thanks.

Zhao Xiulan and Jiang Cheng continued to walk towards Chu Xiaobao and Grandma Chu's house.

Seeing that the little daughter-in-law's heart became heavy, she knew why.

Jiang Cheng gently held Zhao Xiulan's hand and comforted, "Xiulan, these things are not something we can change, do what we can do, provide them with a little help, and be worthy of our conscience."

"Well I know, it's just that those children are so pitiful"

"Everyone has their own fate, and there is nothing we can do. All we need to do is to contribute to the country. Only when the entire country is prosperous and strong can the common people live a good life."

Jiang Cheng studied hard before, and even went abroad to study, just thinking about being able to contribute to the development of the motherland.

When he was studying abroad, many students chose to stay abroad, but he decided to return to China because he knew that his country was in urgent need of talents and development.

Zhao Xiulan nodded, history can't be changed, Jiang Cheng's idea has been confirmed in the future.

Decades later, the country is indeed strong and rich, and every common person can eat and drink enough and live a well-off life.

The two of them were walking and talking, and before they knew it, they had arrived at Chu Xiaobao's house.

Grandma Chu is sitting in the yard, basking in the sun, holding a piece of shoe sole in her hand, sewing it, and preparing to make a pair of shoes for Chu Xiaobao.

Children grow fast, and their feet grow fast. Every one or two years, the old shoes can no longer be worn, and they need to be remade.

I happen to have worn-out clothes at home, so it doesn't cost much to sew a pair of cloth shoes myself, it just takes a little more time.

Grandma Chu doesn't have much to do at home. It's perfectly fine to make a few pairs of shoes.

Her eyes are not very good, presbyopia, can only sit in the sun, sew slowly, but not in a hurry.

Chu Xiaobao is not in a hurry to wear it for a while, so it doesn't matter if you do it slowly.
