Chapter 130: The Girl with Stars in Her Eyes

The old woman stretched out her wrinkled hands with pity, picked up Zheng Xichen's little face, and muttered: "Evil, such a lovely child, those people are really damned!" ”&1t;/p>

Zheng Xichen's immature hands hugged the old woman's rickety body, as if she wanted to absorb nutrients from her unwarm body, and pursued it vigorously. &1t;/p>

Often when people are sad and disappointed, if they tell themselves to be strong, then they can be stronger than anyone else, and even people can't see the pain in their hearts at all, and everything in the outside world seems to have no impact on them. &1t;/p>

But at this time, although the blow will not make them fall, a light word of concern and greeting from a friend or stranger will make them lose their armor and cry bitterly. &1t;/p>

Zheng Xichen was also like this at this time. &1t;/p>

Even though the beating and scolding of her stepmother and brother will make her feel pain, and even feel that death is near, no matter how painful it is, she can't beat her heart, she can stubbornly not speak, even if she will be beaten a few more times for this, but she will never give in to this, succumb to the feet of a person she hates! &1t;/p>

But it was only this rare, and she didn't easily feel that it came from an old woman who was as poor as her and who was also tortured by life, and a sentence that was not a wonderful comfort. &1t;/p>

It was as if she had found a lighthouse on a boat, a winter traveler who saw a pot of charcoal, wandered for many years, and finally saw a navigator in six places, which was incomparably moving, not the warmth that money and wealth could buy. &1t;/p>

This warmth made her indulge, and she didn't want to leave, she didn't want to go back to that chilling home. &1t;/p>

Although it was her home, it brought her only endless pain and fear. &1t;/p>

"Mother-in-law, I'm glad I met you......" Zheng Xichen buried his head in the old woman's arms, tears welling up. &1t;/p>

She envied the old woman's son countless times, thinking about why she would encounter such a thing, why she couldn't live like them, even if she was not rich, she was happy. &1t;/p>

"Silly boy, what are you telling me to do this, don't cry, what a little girl, how ugly it is to cry......"&1t;/p>

The old woman touched Zheng Xichen's head distressedly, wiped her tears with her cracked and old hands, and there was only pure pity on her face. &1t;/p>

Zheng Xichen smiled embarrassedly, tears rolled down, and her bruised little face was even more pitiful and cute. &1t;/p>

"I'll show you the joke, thank you, mother-in-law." &1t;/p>

The old woman also smiled, looking amiable, she suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, you haven't eaten again, have you?" Look at you, so thin, come on, my mother-in-law left you bread, you see, today's bread is delicious, you eat a few more, you can think of it as fragrant......"&1t;/p>

So saying, the old woman went in and took out the bread. &1t;/p>

Zheng Xichen obediently waited outside with his hands behind his back and did not follow in. &1t;/p>

This is also because the old woman's son doesn't want to see her, thinking that she is just coming to frame her mother-in-law's bread to eat, if it weren't for not wanting to see the faces of her stepmother and brother, life is really sad, and she doesn't want to make it difficult for her mother-in-law. &1t;/p>

That's why she thanked her mother-in-law even more. &1t;/p>

She will definitely repay her mother-in-law in the future, Zheng Xichen thought firmly, clenching her little fists. &1t;/p>

"Thank you, mother-in-law!" Zheng Xichen stepped forward to take the bread and smiled as cute as a little angel. &1t;/p>

The bread in her hand was actually not palatable, and even some of it could not be bitten, it was cold and hard, and it looked like a stone, but she didn't care at all, and took a big bite of it, and as she ate it, tears fell again. &1t;/p>

Although Zheng Xichen looks yellow and thin, his eyes are big and round, and there are tears in them, which makes the old woman's heart melt. &1t;/p>

"You kid, eat well, don't choke." The old woman looked at Zheng Xichen with disgust, obviously used to her crying at every turn like a little crying bag, so she was not surprised, but gently handed her a bottle of boiled water at hand. &1t;/p>

In fact, she didn't know that Zheng Xichen was not really a little crying bag, on the contrary, in front of others, she has always been very strong, in the words of her stepmother, she is a copper pea who can't be beaten, no matter how she fights, she can't say anything, it's boring! &1t;/p>

Finally finished eating the dry and hard bread, Zheng Xichen burped a little, and then looked at the old woman embarrassedly and smiled. &1t;/p>

"Mother-in-law, I'm leaving." &1t;/p>

It's not that she wants to leave, it's just that the old woman's son is about to come back from work, and if he sees him coming to eat again, he will definitely scold the old woman and Zheng Xichen again. &1t;/p>

If she was scolded, it would have been fine, but she never wanted to drag down the old woman and cause a gap between her and her son. &1t;/p>

"Well, Xichen, quickly stretch out your hand." The mother-in-law looked at her gently, and then with a mysterious look, she felt for the things in her pocket and grabbed them in her hands. &1t;/p>

Zheng Xichen's big black eyes were shining, and he quickly stretched out his hands and spread them out in front of the old woman, like a puppy wagging his tail at his master, cute and well-behaved. &1t;/p>

"Look at it in the morning, what is this?" The old woman smiled softly and spread out her hand. &1t;/p>

"Wow!" Zheng Xichen exclaimed in surprise and looked at the old woman's palm. &1t;/p>

I saw that on the old and weather-beaten big hand, there were two crystal clear candies. &1t;/p>

Colorful confetti wrapped in colorful candies that sparkle in the sunlight. &1t;/p>

Zheng Xichen took the candy in surprise, put it in the palm of his hand and looked at it, with a bright smile on his little face. &1t;/p>

In fact, this kind of candy is very cheap, and she has not eaten it, but what really makes her feel warm, surprised, and like a spring breeze is the old woman's heart. &1t;/p>

"If you like it, go ahead!" The old woman laughed. &1t;/p>

This child knows how to be grateful and is very well-behaved, but it is a pity that he was born in such a family...... &1t;/p>

"Uh-huh." Zheng Xichen glanced at the old woman deeply, then ran away with a smile, and finally had a trace of vitality in his body that belonged to a young man, and he was no longer lifeless. &1t;/p>

Zheng Xichen clenched the candy in his palm tightly, wanting to go to walk around the street, and wait until Li Li and the others went to sleep before going back. &1t;/p>

At this moment, she suddenly seemed to see something, and slowly stopped, her face a little puzzled. &1t;/p>

In the depths of the dark, damp alley, there should have been no one there. &1t;/p>

Because there is rain all year round, the sun does not shine there, so there is always a smell of mold in the place. &1t;/p>

Even the homeless didn't want to stay in that place, and Zheng Xichen himself didn't like it, but it was because if he went to the old woman's shop, he would definitely pass through this road. &1t;/p>

And now, she actually saw a small figure, trembling against the wall, like a poor little pet abandoned by its owner. &1t;/p>

Zheng Xichen was a little uncertain, she pitied him and was afraid that he was a little madman. &1t;/p>

This is not unreasonable, this child is wearing a small expensive clothes, and at first glance he is not a person who belongs to them, but to say that he is a golden child, he is so dirty. &1t;/p>

If she went, maybe it would be a mentally disturbed child, and she had encountered this situation before, when she kindly wanted to help him, but she was beaten. &1t;/p>

But if you don't go, your conscience is a little unbearable, and this child is so pitiful, it doesn't look like one of those mentally abnormal children. &1t;/p>

After thinking about it for a long time, Zheng Xichen gritted his teeth, tightened his sleeves with his little hands, and cautiously approached the dirty-looking child. &1t;/p>

She asked tentatively, "Hey, what are you doing here?" ”&1t;/p>

But instead of answering her, the child even buried his head even deeper, very resistant, and if you look closely, you will see that the child's body is trembling indistinctly, looking jealous and afraid. &1t;/p>

After a long time, when Zheng Xichen's people squatted down and waited for him to speak, the child cautiously raised his head. &1t;/p>

It was a very cute little boy, with a little fragility and fear on his immature little face, he quietly looked at Zheng Xichen with big moist eyes, and when he saw Zheng Xichen looking at him, he quickly lowered his head. &1t;/p>

He asked weakly, "Will you beat me?" ”&1t;/p>

Only then did Zheng Xichen notice that the reason why the child's body looked dirty was not because of anything else, but because he had been beaten, and many footprints were mixed with mud. &1t;/p>

A hint of pity flashed in her eyes, and she felt a sense of sympathy, and said softly, "No." ”&1t;/p>

There was lamentation, pity, and more concern in that voice. &1t;/p>

When the little boy heard this, he was stunned and finally dared to raise his head, looked at Zheng Xichen curiously, and looked at her with big eyes without blinking, his eyes were like a little beast caught by a beast, looking at his fate. &1t;/p>

Zheng Xichen's figure was reflected in the little boy's clear eyes. &1t;/p>

She squatted on the ground against the light, her face was thin but full of strength, her eyes flashed, like a Milky Way sprinkled with broken diamonds, and her concerned look was like a gentle sister, more like an angel in Western mythology. &1t;/p>

Facing the morning light and morning dew, it brings hope and light to believers, symbolizing love and happiness. &1t;/p>

"I believe in you, and if it's you, I'll believe it." The little boy whispered. &1t;/p>

Zheng Xichen smiled, touched his head pityingly, thought for a while, spread his hand, and handed over the candy. &1t;/p>

"Do you want to eat candy?" &1t;/p>

Obviously, Zheng Xichen is not big, but she said the tone of the little adult, which made her feel a little embarrassed. &1t;/p>

But the little boy didn't think it at all. &1t;/p>

He slowly stretched out his hand and touched the two ordinary and cheap candies, as if he was touching a beautiful dream. &1t;/p>

"Give...... It's mine? The boy's tone was expectant. &1t;/p>

"Hmm." Zheng Xichen gave him a positive answer. &1t;/p>

The boy suddenly laughed, his immature little face slowly unfolded because of this smile, as if spring flowers were blooming, he looked at Zheng Xichen's eyes, his voice was a little shy, but it was very clear. &1t;/p>

"Your eyes are beautiful, like they have stars." &1t;/p>
