"Yes, I'm Xiaohua." The little girl was flattered: "Sister, do you know me?"
Yun Qiao looked at her pale face from the cold and nodded, "Let's go. Let's talk inside."
"No, it's getting dark. I have to go home soon, so I won't go in." Su Hua waved his hand: "I'm here just..."
"It won't take a moment." Yun Qiao interrupted her, stepped forward and took her hand.
Su Hua's fingers were cold. Firstly, he was not wearing enough clothes, and secondly, he had been standing outside waiting for who knows how long, and he had waited until all the heat in his body was gone.
When Yun Qiao held his hand warmly, Su Hua couldn't say no.
After opening the door and entering the house, Yun Qiao turned on the light, and the warm yellow light of the tungsten filament lamp illuminated the room.
"Sit down." Yun Qiao put down the things in his hands and poured a cup of hot water for Su Hua: "Drink some hot water to warm your body."
"Thank you, sister." Su Huaguai took the cup of water and drank it in small sips.
Yun Qiao sat down opposite her and asked her softly, "What brought you here?"
The last time she went to Su's house, Su Hua was at school and didn't come home. This was the first time Yun Qiao saw her since she was born.
"I overheard my parents talking, and they said you're my real sister." Su Hua lowered his head and whispered, "Your address is written in the notebook. I memorized it after reading it once."
"You have a good memory." Yun Qiao praised her.
Su Hua showed a proud expression on his face: "That's right, I'm a good student. I can memorize the text after reading it twice."
Yun Qiao: "Have you eaten?"
Su Hua touched his deflated stomach and shook his head.
"Do you want some noodles?" Yun Qiao asked her, "We only have some noodles at home."
"Don't bother me, sister. I'll be home for dinner later." Su Hua said, pulling out a dark brown scarf from her small cloth bag. "Mom said you were going to the Great Northern Wilderness to work in the countryside. I have a brother who is also going there. He heard that it's very cold there, so I knitted a scarf for you. I hope it can bring you warmth."
Su Hua's simple words warmed Yun Qiao's heart, and touching emotions instantly filled her entire heart.
But she knew that Su Hua was not in a good situation either.
The Su family has many children. Not only does they have the sweet-talking and spoiled Su Lin, but they also have twin brothers whose parents themselves represent their parents' favoritism. She is the youngest child in the family and a girl who is not looked down upon, so she doesn't get any of the good things in the family.
In her previous life, Yun Qiao lived in the Su family for two generations. She knew Su Hua's situation well. She had no clothes, no pocket money, and only five yuan for lunch at school every day. Her family could not even fill her stomach.
Su Hua didn't know how to save money to give her this scarf from the five yuan meal money, so Yun Qiao didn't take the scarf, but said: "Xiao Hua, I have a scarf, you keep this one for yourself."
"Your own is yours, but this one is from my heart."
Afraid that Yun Qiao would not accept it, Su Hua threw the scarf into Yun Qiao's arms, jumped up and ran out: "I'm going home now, goodbye sister."
Yun Qiao put the scarf on the table beside him, stood up and said, "It's getting dark, I'll take you there."
"No, I know the way."
At this time, Su Hua had already run out of the yard.
She ran as fast as she could without even turning her head. When Yun Qiao chased after her, the little girl had already disappeared at the end of the alley.
Yun Qiao didn't know which direction she went. He stood there and watched for a while, then turned around and went home.
The brown scarf lay quietly on the table, its furry touch as soft as the little girl's heart.
Yun Qiao hugged the scarf in his arms and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
