Chapter 184 There is always darkness beyond sunlight (1/3)
The alleys and ancient streets in the middle of the night are like a vent, and the rush of cold wind pours into it, ruthlessly, to blow away the last warmth in this world.
The small stall was a dilapidated pedal tricycle. There was an oil lamp on the tricycle. The grandmother was sitting behind the tricycle with a stool. She was wearing a thick coat with several patches on her body. It was not a fleece. It should be I stuffed the clothes made of cotton with my hands. The clothes are a bit dirty and covered with dirt.
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the old woman tightened her collar tightly and huddled up behind the tricycle to avoid the wind.
Gu Tingyu and the others walked over, and Tu Xiaobai hurried over and asked: "Grandma, there is no one on the road. Why are you still setting up a stall here? Don't you go home for dinner?"
Hearing this, the old grandmother hurriedly got up, her face flushed with cold, and walked towards Gu Tingyu, taking out a piece of one hundred yuan that had become crumpled out of her pocket with both hands.
"You lost this money here, right? You bought a clay doll by yourself today. It must not be someone else's. I am worried that you will be anxious if you lose the money, so I just stay here waiting for you." The old grandma showed a simple expression. Smile, with warmth in the corners of his eyes.
A simple sentence is like the warmest lamp in this cold night.
Don't say one hundred yuan, even if you lose one thousand yuan, Gu Tingyu will not feel distressed and anxious, and people did not hide it privately, but worried that Gu Tingyu would be anxious and kept waiting for him here.
This is a kind of dignity. She would rather die than accept the food that came. As far as she was concerned, she could support herself with her own craft, so she would naturally not accept the collected money.
Although it was only one hundred yuan, no one might look for it if it was lost, but the one hundred yuan did not spend the ten yuan that he had earned in peace of mind.
Gu Tingyu thought for a while and still accepts the hundred yuan, and if he wants to refuse, it is estimated that this old grandma's self-esteem will be harmed invisibly.
It's just that this money is a bit weird. The money Gu Tingyu gave her was a neat new ticket from the bank, but the money was crumpled, and the money was a little faded. It was not his one at all.
The grandmother seemed to see Gu Tingyu's look, and then smiled: "Little brother, I accidentally tore your money before. This one belongs to me. You can accept it."
"Okay, I'll take the money
Next, grandma, where's your clay figure here? I have all inclusive. "
Gu Tingyu looked at the clay figurines that were not placed on the tricycle before inquiring that he bought them all so that he could save the face of the old man and help a little bit.
"That, no, no more."
No more? But this old grandma just said that Gu Tingyu is her only customer today. Is there any secret
"Late autumn, you can bring some food to grandma, I will go to the convenience store over there to buy a cup of hot tea."
After that, Gu Tingyu turned around and went to the convenience store. Of course, buying hot tea was only one of them. He also asked if anyone here noticed the grandmother on the roadside.
"You said that grandma who has been setting up a stall, I just gave her a cup of hot drink and bread, but she sent it back to me again, even if she refused to take it, they can also deal with poor people like this!" The clerk said angrily.
"Start? What start?" Gu Tingyu asked.
"What can I do? It’s the booth fee. A booth fee of 50 yuan. This grandma sold a fortune today and made a total of 10 yuan. Where can I get the money? Those who charge the booth fee I started to set up the stall, but I didn't expect to turn over a hundred yuan on the stall. While cursing, I accidentally pushed the old woman a tumble." The clerk said a little angrily, very angry.
No wonder, it's no wonder that this old grandma's clothes were covered with dust, that's how it was.
It seems that there are still a lot of bitches in this world. If the necessity of existence is to commit a scumbag, then Gu Tingyu doesn't mind punishing them.
"Where are these people in charge? Legal department?" Gu Tingyu asked again.
"What is the legal department? It is some law enforcement officers hired outside the urban management brigade. It is said that they have a background in the underworld. In short, they are like plasters, bullying and fearing hard, stinky bastards."
"I really want to come up with a justice messenger to punish and punish the darkness that can't be exposed to sunlight."
This little girl still has a sense of justice. Gu Tingyu asked what these people were called again, and then bought a few cups of hot tea and went out.
The old grandmother not far away was still declining, no matter how hungry she would not eat the fast food that Ye Wanqiu brought over, Gu Tingyu used to stuff the food and hot tea directly into the old grandmother's hands.
"Grandma, you said you were waiting for us
After such a long time, we can be regarded as acquaintances. Since acquaintances are friends, friends can share with each other, or does the grandmother dislike us? "Gu Tingyu hummed.
It's rare to see Gu Tingyu's such a coquettish appearance, it's really a little cute.
"Well, that's fine, I'll take it." The old lady said with a smile, such a simple person, Gu Tingyu would like to personally ask how those people can get it done!
He dialed a call for Murong not afraid to call, and they should have a unique tracing system when they become the top group in the killer list.
"Huh? Master, don't you even know what that person's name looks like?" Murong asked without fear of doubt.
"Yes, it's the person who collects the booth fee in the ancient street. I think you can help me find him." Gu Tingyu's voice is very serious. He is a person who rarely gets angry. It must be very important to call them. thing.
"The person who collects the booth fee, I seem to have seen it today, and I am a little impressed! Good, Master, you can rest assured, I will help you find out as soon as possible!"
"Ok."
Hanging up the phone, Gu Tingyu's face returned to a cold look, and he provoke him, so good, wait obediently for revenge.
With the money, the old grandma pushed the cart to go.
"It's getting too early, little brother, go back and rest soon." The old woman said with a smile, but who can understand the bitterness in her smile
"Are you going to other places?" Gu Tingyu asked.
"Go get some medicine for the old man." The old woman smiled back, put the bench on the tricycle, and then disappeared into the night on the tricycle. She went in the direction of the old man at the end of the ancient street, the old man of the Xu family who had pitted Gu Tingyu. Chinese pharmacy.
Gu Tingyu asked Ye Wanqiu and Tu Xiaobai to go back first. It was fine anyway. He waited on the side of the road for a while. He waited until the old woman had bought the medicine and disappeared at the end of the street and disappeared into the night He followed, opened the door of the prescription, and walked in.
"Hey, hey, close the door quickly, damn it, it's this kind of horrible weather at the end of the year, and the temperature is half as soon as you open the door." Old man Xu, who was bent over to pack his things, didn't look up, and said cursingly.
"Master, don't you go back to reunite with your family for the New Year?" Gu Tingyu smiled calmly and walked over.
