Chapter 1000: For the sake of the children
Besides, the woman in front of her is also her own benefactor who saves the people, and she shouldn't be a bad person.
The little boy stood up from behind Gu Manqing, nodded his head, and took Hu Peici and them to his home.
"Sister Peici, is there any clue about this watch, that's why you're so excited?"
Hu Peici's excitement just now, Gu Manqing also saw it in his eyes.
"Well, I know this watch, I bought it for Wu Shengjun, so we just need to know where this watch came from, and we can find him."
Hu Peici's words were full of excitement, which can be said to be the best news she has received in the past few days.
The little boy led the way in front of them, and the little boy's home was a little far away, and it took him about ten minutes to arrive.
The little boy took Hu Peici to a simple mud house, and there were piles of discarded items in front of it.
"Nurse, grandma, I'm back."
The little boy stood outside and shouted, the mud house is not too big, so the little boy's voice is so loud, the people inside should be able to hear it.
But there was no answer from inside the house, and the little boy came out and curled the corners of his mouth.
"Grandma is not here, she should be out, you wait, she will be back later."
The little boy brought a small stool for Hu Peici and them, and looked at the somewhat shabby stool.
Hu Peici could see that it should have been picked up by someone else, and then picked it up by the old man.
They didn't dislike it, they just sat down, and the faces of both of them were full of distress.
When other people's children are as old as him, that is not to go to school again, which is not to be favored by their parents.
The child in front of him is here to accept the ups and downs, barely making ends meet.
Hu Peici raised his eyes and looked around, the house was already dilapidated, and there was still a layer of film in some places.
"Your house will leak on a rainy day, right?"
The little boy nodded, and didn't feel any grievances, as if it was no surprise to him.
"Grandma, what are you doing out at this point?"
Gu Manqing also felt a little sorry for the little boy in front of him, although he lived in a big city.
I haven't lived happily in a small village, and the equipment of this house is not as good as that of his red brick house.
"Grandma went out to pick up garbage, and grandma said that she could change the meat buns for me, but he would be out for a little longer, so I went over there to play by myself."
"Grandma is amazing, she will bring me different toys back every day, you look at that little car over there, it's cool, that's what grandma gave me."
The little boy pointed to the blue car over there, his face was full of happiness, and he didn't mean to complain about the environment he was living in now.
Hu Peici looked along the place where the little boy was pointing, and there was a blue toy car over there.
But the body of the toy car is all worn, and not only that, but even the tires are missing.
But compared to the rag dolls that no longer had hands and feet around them, and the old leather sofas.
The little blue car was already the little boy's best toy, and she knew that it was the little boy's favorite thing.
The sun was about to set, and the shadow of the little boy stretched out under the rays of the setting sun.
It shone into Hu Peici's heart for such a long time, lingering for a long time.
Seeing that it was getting late and late, Hu Peici heard the old man's wheezing and quickly turned his head.
An old woman came from behind, staggering towards the mud house here, her legs and feet were not neat, and she walked very slowly.
Her gray shirt was extremely dirty, with lots of small stains on it, and she was carrying a large bag of scrap behind her.
When the little boy saw his grandmother returning, he hurriedly ran over and took one of the packets of things that the grandmother was carrying.
The two of them looked very harmonious, and the laughter of the grandfather and grandson looked very warm under the sunset.
"Ah, Xiaoyu brought someone back today."
Grandma looked at Hu Peici and Gu Manqing in front of her with a kind face, and the wind blew gently, picking up the old man's pale hair.
A face was already full of traces of time, but it was not obvious that the old man felt that the life in front of him was bitter.
"You guys sit here first, I'll cook, na, this is the meat bun I brought to Xiaoyu today."
The old man took out a meat bun from his bosom, which was carefully wrapped in a handkerchief and placed in his arms, for fear that the bun would be cold.
As the old man moved, Hu Peici noticed that the old man's shoes had been damaged so badly that even the toes of his toes poked their heads out of the shoes.
"Don't bother grandma, I came here today to ask grandma something, where did you pick it up?"
Hu Peici took out the watch from his arms, and his whole face was nervous, because this watch was really important to him.
"This, I think about it, I seem to have picked it up in an abandoned high-rise building over there, and I threw it in the grass at the time, I thought this watch was very exquisite, so I thought I would bring it back to Xiaoyu to play."
The old man's hand pointed to that side, and Hu Peici couldn't wait to leave.
"Thank you, grandma, is this place far from here?"
"It's not too far, about forty minutes away."
The old man said nonchalantly, Hu Peici's heart was even more moved by the old man, he didn't expect the old man to be so old and have to walk so far to pick up garbage every day.
She didn't hesitate, she directly took out 5,000 yuan from her bag and stuffed it into the old man's hand.
"Thank you, grandma, you take this money, and I will send someone to help you later."
The old man has been poor all his life, and he will definitely not be able to accept the money given to him by Hu Peici.
hurriedly pushed Hu Peici back, but the stubbornness on the old face was clearly visible.
"Take it, even if it's not for you, you have to think about it for Xiaoyu, isn't it?"
The old man turned his head to look at Xiao Yu, who was gnawing on the meat bun, this child was raised by himself.
For so many years, they have been dependent on each other, and no one can do without each other.
Thinking of his daughter-in-law and son who died early, the car accident was ruthless, probably like this, I am getting older and older, and my physical strength is becoming less and less than before.
Yes, even if he can eat a little bit, but Xiaoyu is still growing his body, he can't be delayed, not to mention, he should go to school, right?
The old man hesitated for a long time, but still took the money given by Hu Peici and bowed to them.
