Chapter Eighty-Seven: Children from Poor Families
Next to the bun stall, the old woman was still curled up on the ground, holding her little grandson in her arms, who was holding half of the mud-stained bun in her hand, and was about to eat with tears in her eyes.
Lin Bai was shocked, and quickly leaned down and pressed the child's arm, "Don't!" It's all covered in mud. ”
The child was startled, his hands trembled, and he looked up to see that it was Song Xinyi, but the tears were still pouring down.
Mo said that this bun was stained with mud, that is, it was moldy and hairy, and he was able to eat a bite, and he was very satisfied with it.
"Sister, it's okay, I can eat it." He raised his hand to wipe the tears on his cheeks, and said cautiously to Song Xinyi.
"How can this be? It's already full of mud, and I can't eat it anymore, so my sister bought it for you, okay? Song Xinyi looked at him with pity.
Seeing the dirty bun in the little boy's hand, Song Xinyi couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart.
"No need, sister, grandma said that we can't just take other people's things."
The child's timid words crossed Song Xinyi's heart again, making her feel that her whole heart was touched by these children. She pressed the little boy's hand, turned her head sideways and shouted to the boss of the bun shop, "Boss, get me ten more meat buns like this!" ”
The boss looked dazed, afraid that he hadn't reacted from the situation just now, and stared at a few people who were squatting on the ground, and suddenly heard Song Xinyi calling him, so he suddenly realized and promised, "Oh, okay, right away." ”
He hurriedly took out ten steaming buns from the cage drawer and wrapped them in paper, took out the i from the counter, and handed them to Song Xinyi, "Girl, this is the bun you want." ”
After taking the bun, she went directly to the little boy's hand, "Here, take it, eat it with your grandmother." ”
"But grandma said ......"
"It's okay, my sister is taking one of your rattles, just enough to cover the money for this bun." The corners of Song Xinyi's mouth hooked a very good-looking arc, and she was full of patience in the face of this little boy with a warm face.
She spoke softly, not at all like she had just been involved in such a fierce fight.
Hu Tian has been standing behind her, looking at this picture with the same affectionate face, and he can't help but feel awe of Song Xinyi in his heart.
Once upon a time, Song Xinyi was the daughter of the prefect's family, but now she was shocked to see such a scene.
The little boy looked at Song Xinyi with a puzzled face, and hurried to see his grandmother.
At this moment, the old woman's face was a little softer, but she was still sallow, and her wrinkled face was full of weather.
She didn't say anything, just nodded at the little boy.
With the permission of his grandmother, the corners of the little boy's mouth timidly hooked up a smile, but there was great satisfaction in his eyes, there were ten buns at a time, I was afraid that he had never dreamed of something.
"Alright then, thank you, sister!"
He didn't rush to start, but put the mud-covered buns into his chest, and carefully took the ten buns from Song Xinyi's hands, which were so hot that he felt warm all over his body.
The little boy carefully opened the paper bag from one side, took out a bun and held it in his hand, and handed it to his grandmother, "Grandma, you can eat it too, this bun is delicious!" ”
Song Xinyi's heart trembled, and she set her eyes on the old woman's face again.
She shook her head at her grandson, "Grandma is not hungry, she used to eat such buns all the time, but now she doesn't like to eat them, just eat them." ”
"Don't, my sister said she wanted me to eat with you!"
His gaze was firm, he looked at Song Xinyi, and then turned his head to continue to look at his grandmother.
Similarly, the old woman also turned her head to look at Song Xinyi.
Song Xinyi nodded to her in affirmation, and the old woman trembled and stretched out her hand to take the steaming meat bun.
"Old man, you better get up, it's too cold on the ground."
Hu Tian couldn't bear to walk over, picked up the old woman, helped her dust off her body, and helped her back to her stall and sit on the shabby little chair.
"Thank you so much, I don't know which noble family Engong is?" The old woman trembled, but she did not lack any courtesy.
"We are not from here, but the road is uneven, and the old people don't have to worry about it!" Song Xinyi bent over and said softly.
"How can the old body be cared for by the girl and the son, it's really ......" her voice trembled.
"There are some things that the old man doesn't have to say." Hu Tian raised his hand and gently blocked it, signaling that the old woman didn't have to say any more, and then turned his eyes to look at the happy little boy who was holding a bun in her arms to eat.
"The old body really has nothing to give to the son and the girl, only these few broken rattles, if the girl likes it, take them all ......"
The old woman was afraid that she would never be able to get anything more valuable.
Song Xinyi shook her head, "Two will be fine......"
She took two rattles and handed one to Li Feng.
Li Feng was not interested in this thing, but he still reached out and took the i, and turned the i in his hand twice, and the "dong dong" sound from the rattle was extremely cute, so he simply hooked the corners of his mouth.
Not long after, Lin Bai took Liu Dongshan and Liu Donghe back from the other direction.
"Is it all done?" Song Xinyi took the reins again.
"I think, that Huang Sanye should enjoy the rest of his life in the prison at this time!" Lin Bai hooked the corner of his mouth with a contemptuous smile.
"Okay, in that case, let's not delay too much time, let's go back quickly."
After saying that, Song Xinyi directly raised her legs and stepped onto the horse.
When the rest of the people saw her move, they also rode on their horses.
When the vendors on the street saw that these people were all riding on their horses and were about to leave, it was as if they had seen the great lord of the blue sky, and they knelt down one after another.
"Thank you for your help and the girl, and I wish you all the best along the way!"
Song Xinyi really didn't expect that the people in the capital would be so enthusiastic, so she turned sideways and nodded to these people. Li Feng and Fang Leng raised their hands and saluted them, and several people quickly whipped up their horses and ran all the way towards the city gate.
"What? How many young people? Is there such a thing?! The middle-aged man in a fancy costume was furious.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Huang Sanye knelt on the ground and was telling the Prime Minister about his painful experience.
He was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, his body was scarred, and he suffered some hardships in prison, and now he was easily released, so he had to add fuel to this matter with his master.
The prime minister was furious and raised his hand and slammed it on the table.
