Chapter 236: A Wave of Unsettled Waves and Rising Again 11
It's already October, and it's slowly getting darker and darker.
Su Xiaoli leaned against the wall and glanced up at the sky, the sun had already set on the horizon, and a touch of orange afterglow sprinkled in the air, blurring a faint color glow.
"Little girl, can you please do me a favor......" An old voice sounded beside Su Xiaoli.
"What??" Su Xiaoli looked down at her side, only to see a ragged grandmother and a piggyback grandfather standing beside her, and the two of them were looking at her with cloudy eyes.
"My wife and I are here to find my son......" The old woman was a little embarrassed to cover the holes in her clothes, and said slowly to Su Xiaoli: "My son works here and hasn't been home for several years, and my wife and I have no income at home, so I want to come over and join him......"
"Who knows that after coming, my son and daughter-in-law didn't recognize us, and after scolding the two of us, they kicked us out, and now we don't have a penny on us, and my wife and I haven't eaten for several days, little girl, can you buy us something to eat??"
The old woman choked up as she wiped her tears from the corner of her clothes.
Su Xiaoli blinked and looked at them seriously.
Their clothes looked old and dirty, and there were holes in many places, and the faces of the two old men were dry and wrinkled, and they looked almost skinny, and their feet were wearing rag shoes, which were covered with dust and the edges were all worn out.
"Well, I still have some bread in my bag, I'll give it to you!" Su Xiaoli saw that they were so pitiful, so he quickly took off the schoolbag on his back and opened it, took out bread from it, and handed it to the two old men.
"Thank you...... Thank you......" The old woman reached out and took the bread that Su Xiaoli handed her, looked down seriously, and then returned it to Su Xiaoli tremblingly: "Little girl, these breads of yours shouldn't be cheap...... The two of us are so old, how can we be embarrassed to eat children's snacks...... Take it and keep it for when you're hungry, that is...... Can you buy a steamed bun for our old couple......"
"It's okay, it's okay, it's not expensive, you eat first, and I'll buy you something else to eat." Su Xiaoli waved his hand at the two of them, then looked around and said, "There is a restaurant over there, the food in it is very delicious, my brother often takes me to eat, I'll take you there to eat." ”
"No, no." The old woman hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Why are you embarrassed to break the bank, we just need to eat a steamed bun and drink saliva." ”
"It's not a waste of money, really, that restaurant is cheap and delicious!" Su Xiaoli blinked and smiled at the old grandmother: "Besides, it's just a meal, it's really not expensive." ”
"But our old couple are dressed in such tatters, I'm really embarrassed to go into the store to eat......" The old woman said a little embarrassed: "There is a shop selling steamed buns in the alley over there, little girl, can you take us to buy a steamed bun?" ”
"Huh?" Su Xiaoli was stunned for a moment, then reached out and took out ten yuan from his pocket and said, "No, I'm going to wait for my brother here, or I'll give you money, you can buy it yourself." ”
