With his keen intuition, he could feel that there were many mysterious people in Damu City, pursuing traces of monsters in the dark.
On this day, he came to a charity hall again. There was already a long queue here. There were too many lazy people supported by high welfare.
He could only queue at the end, and soon a trembling old woman came and lined up quietly behind him.
He looked back and saw that she was not a sluggish-looking woman. She was wearing clean and tidy clothes, her face was somewhat rosy, and her eyes were deeply wrinkled. Overall, she looked like a very clean and elegant old woman.
The old woman smiled at him. Although she had a vicissitudes of life, she could still see the beauty of her youth.
He also smiled at her, thinking that this old woman had a kind face, but he didn't know whether she was in trouble or just the kind of old man or woman who came here specifically to receive free food.
The bell rang, and at first glance, it was Bai Yunni calling.
After returning to the human world from the alien land of Wood Blossom Star, he also called his sister specifically to express his concern.
Bai Yunni and Qu Jiejie are a perfect match and have given birth to a lovely daughter. The birth of a second child is not uncommon nowadays, but it is by no means uncommon.
Qu Jie works as an executive at DaDao Group, and Bai Yunni also has a fixed share of fame. The family is now living a prosperous life, but it is relatively simple. After all, they are all Those who have come through hard times will never have the extravagance and waste of a wealthy family.
"Brother, where are you?"
"It's in Damu City!"
"Oh!" Bai Yunni must have heard of Damucheng, but didn't know much about it, and said, "Brother, I can't get along with him anymore. He quarrels with me every day over trivial things, and I'm bored to death! "
"You should understand and communicate with each other more. If something happens, don't get angry first. Think about why the other person does what they do. You should also have a tolerant attitude in your living habits." Bai Qiandao was used to his sister's complaints and patiently persuaded her.
"He just can't stand me. Take today for example. I used a brush to clean the toilet. After being tired for a long time, he picked on me and insisted on quarreling with me. I was so angry that I didn't even want to eat."
"This...this is his fault...no, isn't it good that you clean the toilet? Why is he picking on you?"
"I don't like the strong smell. You said it's normal for the disinfectant to have a bit of a smell. You also said that I brushed his toothbrush and the hairs were all bald. Can't I just buy it for him again? You can argue with me about this kind of thing. Isn't that right? Did you do it on purpose?"
Bai Qiandao was not surprised and said with a wry smile: "I knew it was you who did something weird again. You brushed the toilet, why did you use his toothbrush to brush it?"
"I always use his toothbrush! He saw it today and started arguing with me, saying that it's no wonder his toothbrush always sheds hair. Don't I often buy it for him? We don't buy it now. Sorry, do you think he is being unreasonable?"
"Xiao Nizi, have you ever brushed the toilet with your own toothbrush?"
"Why? It's so smelly and dirty, why should I do this?"
"Since it's smelly and dirty, how can Xiaojie stand it? Will he be very angry?"
"I...actually I know what I did was wrong. Who can't help but make mistakes? I also work for the family, how tiring it is! He can't scold me like this or make trouble with me!"
Bai Qiandao continued to smile bitterly and said: "My sister, please bear with me! That...send me photos of Xiaohao and Xiaoyu's life. I want to see my nephew and niece now..."
With this interruption, Bai Yunni immediately put aside her grievances and was so happy that she even said what she knew, and it took her no more than three seconds to think.
Not only did she send photos of her daily life, but she also sent her a chat account. Bai Yunni set up a homepage and uploaded some videos of her daily life, but not many people followed her.
Bai Qiandao watched the video with a smile on his face. His nephew Qu Hao looked like Qu Jie, and his one-year-old niece Qu Yu looked like Bai Yunni. They were both so cute.
Turning back quickly, he saw the old woman coming over to look at her, and asked with a smile: "The two children are very cute, who are they to you?"
"Oh, my nephew and niece." Bai Qiandao took half a step forward, but the stranger was too close.
The old woman smiled kindly and asked again: "Is it my sister or my sister's child?"
"My sister's child."
"Why are you wandering and not living with them?"
"Oh, I like to live my life as I please."
"Who else is at home?"
"There is no one else, both parents are dead."
…
Talking so casually, the queue was shortening, and the old woman's kindness did not bother him.
Until he stood at the free distribution desk, the staff told him that there was only one piece of food left.
He hesitated for a moment, turned to look at the old woman, handed out the food in his hand, and said, "I'll give this to you!"
The old woman smiled and nodded, taking the food without saying thank you.
Bai Qiandao smiled casually, turned around and walked away, but after walking for more than ten steps, when he turned around, he saw the old woman following behind, still smiling kindly.
】
Bai Qiandao also smiled at her, walked away again, but turned a corner.
Half a minute later, he looked back again, and the old woman was still following behind him, still smiling kindly.
I felt strange in my heart. She seemed to be following on purpose. Looking at her trembling body, could she still be able to keep up?
He simply turned around, came to her, and asked, "Are you following me?"
The old woman smiled and said, "Yes! I have nowhere to go. It seems you can find a good place to live."
"I...I'm sleeping on the street now. I don't have a good place to live!"
"It's okay, I have no objection to sleeping on the street!"
Bai Qiandao looked at her in a daze. What did this old woman mean? Did she want to wander with him?
"Ahem, um, I know a place to live. Going west, there is a shelter that can take beggars in and stay there. Especially people as old as you are given priority."
"It's okay, I don't care about sleeping on the street."
Bai Qiandao was in a daze again and said with a wry smile: "No, you follow me and sleep too dirty. You have to endure lice, bedbugs, flies and mosquitoes, as well as rats in the sewers. Look at my unkempt face. You …”
Bai Qiandao looked at her clean clothes and said, "It's just one night, your clothes won't be so clean!"
"It's okay, I don't care."
Bai Qiandao didn't understand and asked, "You just want to suffer?"
"It's okay, it doesn't matter if you suffer a little."
"You're okay, I'm in trouble! What do you call me if you sleep on the street with me?"
The old woman smiled kindly and said, "It's okay. It doesn't matter if you don't care. I just want it."
Bai Qiandao was defeated by her, shook his head, turned around and walked.
There was an old woman hanging behind him. He became more and more uncomfortable as he walked, so he quickened his pace. Strangely, the old woman, who was walking tremblingly, could still keep up.
He looked back and knew it in his heart. It turned out that this person was a psychic!
Although he was confused, he said nothing and continued walking.
I can feel the raindrops falling. It is close to a big river, which means there is a lot of precipitation, and there is more rain in winter. He glanced around and ran towards a building with a protruding glass shed to protect him from the rain.
The old woman also ran over and saw him sitting on the ground. She didn't mind being dirty and sat down next to him.
He turned around to take a look, tightened his clothes, and huddled in the corner. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and a small amount would splash onto his legs, bringing a hint of coolness.
The old woman was wearing a skirt. She also curled up her legs in her skirt. She handed over a piece of bread and a piece of fruit and said, "Let's eat together!"
Bai Qiandao was not polite to her. This was what he let out. He took it and ate it, then asked: "Do you have any family?"
"Yes, I have many children and grandchildren. My husband passed away more than ten years ago, and one of my sons also died unexpectedly. I am also waiting for that day to come. It's coming soon. Time is not forgiving!"
“Why go out and suffer instead of being together with your children and grandchildren?”
"I'm used to it. I've been traveling...so this little hardship is nothing. Once I was in the wild and slept on the ground."
Bai Qiandao looked at her, nodded, and asked, "What state are you in now?"
"In the Xuancheng realm, I am too old. I don't have many years to live. When people get older, they can't help but recall the past, until they recall one old thing at a time..." The old woman turned to look at Bai Qiandao and said with emotion: "Time flies so fast. I never thought I could live to this day. When I recall that time, I felt so young!"
Bai Qiandao said: "The morning sun is certainly bright, but the most beautiful thing is the brilliant colors after dusk, when the afterglow has not faded."
The old woman smiled, looked at the thick raindrops falling with slightly cloudy eyes, and said: "Once upon a time, I suddenly had a desire to fly freely. On the distant journey, there were more flowers blooming for me, and more People can leave me with wonderful memories. After traveling a lot, I realize that I am experiencing the changes in things and people. I lament that time is passing by little by little, and I can no longer get rid of more and more sad memories..."
The old woman seemed to regard him as a confidant, narrating her heartfelt stories and recalling the past. She had many experiences, and most of them were filled with sad sighs.
Bai Qiandao listened quietly, the sounds of rain and words overlapped, falling into his heart bit by bit, forming whirlpools that lingered around.
After an unknown amount of time, the old woman leaned against his body and fell asleep peacefully, and he also fell asleep sleepily.
This place is close to a large hotel to the east. Some people coming in and out of the door ten meters away will look at them and then walk away without caring.
A doorman glanced over his shoulder, muttered, and went back without chasing them away.
A black speed car flew over and stopped at the door. A man in black clothes got out, looked this way warily, and opened the car door.
The roar of the car woke Bai Qiandao up. He looked at the old woman sleeping on his shoulder and looked at the man who got out of the car. He looked familiar.
The man also looked over, with a hint of disgust on his face, and strode in.
Suddenly, his expression changed, and he saw a man and a woman approaching, surprised.
The two people who came over were Matvey and Wu Xinyao. They held an umbrella together, held hands, and walked in the rain quite sweetly.
Arriving in front of the hotel, Matvey put away his umbrella, and the two of them looked this way together. At this time, Bai Qiandao had already lowered his head. Hearing the footsteps of them walking in, he raised his head again and looked over there calmly, wanting to continue sleeping soundly.
