Looking at the watch on her hand, it was already 6 o'clock in the afternoon. She decided to go out for dinner, but this time she still wore her mask.
When packing up to leave, the person at the front desk was surprised to see Han Wanying and asked, "Comrade Han, when did you come back?"
Han Wanying smiled and replied, "I came back this morning."
After saying hello to the person at the front desk, Han Wanying went out to eat.
After going out, Han Wanying went directly to the state-owned restaurant for dinner. She planned to try all the dishes in the state-owned restaurants in the imperial capital during this period of time.
This time when she arrived at the state-owned restaurant, she was wearing a mask. The waiter in front of her didn't recognize her and her attitude was still lukewarm. She just ordered a plate of fried potatoes and braised pork with white rice, and then she sat down at a random seat.
She only stood up to serve the dishes when she was called. The moment she saw the dishes, she didn't even need to taste them. The portion was too small compared to what she could get in Heilongjiang Province.
The price is about the same, but how come the portion is only half of what she gets in Heilongjiang Province? This is at least 3 yuan worth of braised pork, how can she count the pieces clearly?
She placed the dishes on her seat. Although the portion looked small, it still tasted good. She had to pack up the food she ate in Heilongjiang Province before, but this portion was just right.
After dinner, she did not rush back to the guesthouse, but planned to walk around outside for a while.
The weather was quite suitable. She was walking slowly on the road. Suddenly, someone pulled the corner of her clothes. She looked down. The light at night was actually quite weak. People usually used flashlights on the road, but Han Wanying's eyes were different. She could see very clearly even at night.
Looking down, I saw a little girl of about 6 or 7 years old, with a pale and skinny face, a gray complexion, and clothes that were all patched up.
The little girl saw Han Wanying looking at her, her big round eyes filled with tears, and she said in a choked voice, "Sister, can you save my brother?"
Han Wanying asked in a low voice: "What happened to your brother?"
When the aunt heard Han Wanying's gentle question, she couldn't help but burst into tears. "My brother is sick and needs to go to the hospital, but Zaizai has no money. My brother is too ill, but no one is willing to lend us money. Sister, can you lend me some money? I will pay it back. I can write an IOU."
Han Wanying also felt the sadness in the little girl, and it didn't seem like she was lying. Seeing this, she said directly: "Okay, stop crying, take me to see your brother."
After hearing Han Wanying's words, the little girl reached out to wipe the tear marks on her face.
Seeing this, Han Wanying stopped the little girl's hand, took out a handkerchief from her pocket, squatted down and wanted to help the little girl wipe her face.
The little girl felt Han Wanying's movement and dodged, saying timidly, "Dirty."
Of course, Han Wanying knew what the little girl in front of her was referring to, and she said softly, "It's not dirty." Then she pinched the little girl's chin and gently wiped her face clean.
The little girl said to Han Wanying politely: "Thank you, sister. Please give me the handkerchief. I will definitely wash it clean."
Han Wanying smiled and said, "This handkerchief is given to you by my sister."
The little girl's eyes were twinkling with stars. This handkerchief didn't hurt at all when she wiped her face. It was the softest fabric she had ever touched, and there was a little face on it. The little girl liked it very much. Seeing that Han Wanying gave her the handkerchief, she folded it preciously and put it in her pocket.
Seeing this, Han Wanying planned to follow the little girl, but looking at the little girl's small arms and legs, and it was late at night, she just picked up the little girl.
The little girl was frightened by Han Wanying's actions and cried out softly. Han Wanying looked at the little girl in her arms and asked, "What's wrong? Did I scare you? I'm sorry, it's too dark at night. It's better for me to carry you, otherwise you might fall."
The little girl nodded her head and said, "I'm not scared, I'm just a little uncomfortable."
Han Wanying walked forward and asked the little girl, "Can you see the road clearly? Can you show me the way?"
The little girl nodded and said, "Okay, go straight ahead, then turn right into the alley..."
Along the way, the little girl showed the way, and Han Wanying carried the little girl forward. On the way, she also asked some specific questions about the little girl's family situation.
