Chapter 110 Poor little flower

The owner of the wonton stew stall shook his head, "The aunt doesn't know that Xiaohua is not a beggar, she has grandma and dad. Grandma is lying in the bed when she is sick, and dad's legs are still lame. The family's livelihood depends on her dad to do some work for others, but few people can work with him.

Their family has lived next door to us since they came to Yecheng. Later, they got to know each other slowly. Xiaohua occasionally came to my stall and I would give her some leftovers."

"This girl is really pitiful, but you are kind-hearted, boss, and you didn't drive her away."

Pei originally liked the little girls, otherwise he wouldn't have kept Ali at the beginning.

Now seeing Xiaohua's appearance, I felt compassion in my heart.

"Oh, my small business can only give her some food occasionally."

"That's it! There's nothing left to others. I'll buy two bowls of wonton stew for her. You can make it for her later!"

"This... I'll thank the aunt for Xiaohua."

The owner of the wonton stew stall has never seen such a generous person. Usually, people usually dislike Xiaohua and ignore her.

"Well, I don't think she is about the same age as my daughter, and she looks so pitiful."

"The auntie is kind-hearted."

Pei and the others were ready to leave after giving the wonton money.

Xiaohua happily came back with a big empty bowl that had made a big hole.

"Xiaohua, thank you very much, this aunt, she bought you two bowls of wonton stew."

When Xiaohua heard this, she immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Pei.

"Thank you... Auntie."

Xiaohua stuttered a little, and she spoke very slowly in three words.

Pei immediately squatted down and helped her up.

"Don't be polite, Xiaohua, please bring the wonton stew back and eat it with your milk!"

Xiaohua nodded with her big eyes open.

She groped in front of her chest for a while, took out a piece of black thing and handed it to Ali.

"Sugar, sister."

Ali had never seen such black candy, but she didn't dislike it, just said, "Sister doesn't eat it, Xiaohua eat it."

Xiaohua nodded with a smile, and then put the black candy into her clothes.

So I happily went to help the wonton stewing stall owner to collect the empty bowls on the table.

Pei and the others left the wonton stew stall.

On the way back, Ali felt that her life is so happy after meeting Xiaohua today.

She couldn't help but say to Pei, "Mom, Xiaohua is so pitiful. Why don't we bring her some clothes and food tomorrow!"

Pei was very pleased to hear this. Her Ali was kind-hearted.

"Okay, we two thought of going together. You couldn't wear clothes for the past two years. She was much shorter than you. We could just give it to her, okay?"

"Of course it's OK! But can you please don't give it to Brother Ling? Although I can't wear it now, I still like it very much."

"Of course it's OK. That's your thing. You can do whatever you want. Let's keep what you like."

The next day, Pei followed him to sell pastries.

They packed up a lot of clothes that Ali couldn't wear. After selling the pastries, they went to the owner of the wonton stall to inquire about Xiaohua's residence.

According to the address he gave, they soon walked to the rows of dilapidated houses behind the north of the city.

Unlike the bustling places in the center of the city, the houses here are very dilapidated. Some families don’t even have houses and only build a small shack to live in the family. It is more appropriate to call this place a slum.

Xiaohua's house also has small sheds made of wooden boards and rags.

When they arrived, Xiaohua was chopping firewood at the door.

The little body held a hatchet and chopped a piece of dry branches as thick as a child's arms.

Pei called out, "Little Flower".

Xiaohua pulled her messy hair with her left hand, looked up and immediately became surprised on her face.

She put down the hatchet and ran to Pei and the others.

"Big...mother, sister...sister."

"You still remember us!"

Pei touched her hair.

Xiaohua nodded, her eyes were bright.

At this time, a weak voice came from the room.

"Xiaohua...who is here?"

Xiaohua pulled Pei and Ali and walked into the house.

As soon as they entered the house, the scene in front of them shocked the two of them.

Two beds were set up in the small shed, one of which was lying, an old woman with gray hair was covered with a torn quilt full of patches.

There is a shabby table in the middle.

There is a stone-built stove in the corner of the wall on which is a broken pot.

Poor, it's so poor.

The dog shook his head when he saw it.

It was the first time that Ali saw such a poor family.

After Xiaohua pulled them into the house, she ran to the old woman.

"Big...big...mother, sister...good person." The old woman obviously understood what she wanted to say.

"Are these two kind-hearted people who bought us wonton stew yesterday, right?"

Xiaohua nodded happily with her teeth exposed.

The old woman struggled and half sat up.

The light in the room was dim and she couldn't see clearly, but she still looked at Pei and Ali with gratitude.

"Thank you, kind-hearted person, there is nothing to be treated in our family, so I hope you don't blame me."

Pei smiled and said, "It's okay. I happened to meet Xiaohua yesterday. After I went back, my daughter felt that she liked this sister very much. She asked me to pack up some of her old clothes and wanted to give them to Xiaohua. Don't dislike me."

"Good man, I can't even be grateful, how can I dislike it? My little flower is so life is hard!"

Then the old woman quickly asked Pei and the others to sit down.

Pei took Ali and sat on the edge of the bed on the other side.

As she got closer, she suddenly realized that the old woman looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her.

She didn't think much about it, and first opened the bag in her hand and took out four or five sets of clothes, including summer and winter.

"Come on Xiaohua, try to see if these clothes can be worn."

Xiaohua walked over happily and shyly.

Every piece of clothes was just right. She liked them so much that she touched them gently, for fear that their dirty hands would get dirty.

She had never worn such good clothes since she could remember.

Ali also took out a pack of candy cubes she bought for Xiaohua.

"Sister Xiaohua, I'll give you candy. If you can't eat black candy in the future, your stomach will hurt."

When Xiaohua heard that it was sugar, her eyes were bright and she looked at Ali.

"Thanks!"

Then I took it over.

They also took some rice and flour and put it on the bed.

The old woman held her weak body and insisted on getting out of bed and kowtowed to Pei and Ali to thank him.

Pei quickly supported her.

"Don't be polite, don't be polite, we're just doing our best."

The old woman couldn't help but shed tears.

When Pei heard her accent and her appearance, she suddenly realized that she was becoming more and more like a person.

So he asked quickly: "Old sister, let me ask more, are you not from Yecheng?"

The old woman shook her head, "No, we are from the north, we fled all the way to the south, and Yecheng, which we only came to the previous two years."

When Pei heard this, he became more and more excited.
