It's not that she is too sanctimonious, but the child's experience reminded her of her own child, who also lost his father at a young age.
But fortunately, the people at home are very kind to the children and have never let them suffer any injustice.
But that child is different. Although he has the love of his mother and the care of his grandmother, their abilities are limited and they can only solve the problem of food and clothing.
At the same time, I was bullied by my uncle's family from time to time, and my life could only be described as miserable.
So, I couldn't help but want to help their family.
Although these ten dollars cannot solve the fundamental problem, it can solve their urgent needs.
At least the child doesn't have to worry about tuition for next semester.
Qin Han took the money his mother handed over, then walked towards Zhu Likang's house carrying a large canvas bag, holding a chicken in one hand and a hare in the other.
When there was no one around, he used teleportation, and in just a few minutes, he arrived at Zhu Likan's house.
It is three o'clock in the afternoon. Every household has posted red couplets. Some people are already cooking dinner and the aroma of meat can be smelled.
This was the first time Qin Han came to Zhu Likang's home, although he had already known the environment of Zhu Likang's home through his spiritual sense.
But when he really saw Zhu Likan's home with his own eyes, he was still stunned by this dilapidated little house.
This house is even better than the original Qin family's.
At least Lao Qin’s house is bigger than this, has more rooms, and even a yard.
Zhu Likan's home only has two rooms, a small kitchen, and the roof is still made of the most primitive thatched roof.
When it rains, it rains heavily outside and drizzles inside.
Fortunately, the weather has been good these two days, so there is no need to worry about the house leaking during the New Year.
Looking at the crooked couplet on the door, Qin Han guessed that it was most likely posted by Zhu Likang, so he straightened the couplet while no one was paying attention.
While he was putting up the couplets, in the house, Mother Zhu was knitting a sweater for Zhu Likang.
She had no money to buy new clothes for her son, so she took apart her own sweater and knitted one for Li Kang as a New Year's gift.
It’s all her fault as a useless mother. She can’t even afford to buy her son new clothes for the New Year. This is all she can do.
"Li Kang, grandma is old and incompetent. Even though you won a certificate for the exam, I can't afford to give you a reward.
A few days ago, your mother and I sold some grain, and after deducting your tuition for next semester, we had five dollars left at home.
Today is New Year's Eve, and we cannot do without meat in our house.
I spent two dollars to buy three pounds of pork, and I'll cut one pound to make sauerkraut and pork dumplings tonight.
The rest will be used to entertain relatives from your mother's side.
It’s getting late. Grandma will go and mix the dough. Can you help me make dumplings later?” Grandma Zhu said to her grandson.
Zhu Likang was still wearing his old clothes. Although he was quite tall, he was very thin and did not take up much space in his clothes.
Apart from being a bit short, it's not too out of place.
After hearing what his grandmother said, Zhu Likang put down the matchbox in his hand.
This was a handicraft job his mother took from the town, which was to stand up matchboxes. She earned only one cent for fifty matchboxes, and could only earn four or five cents a day.
But for their family, it is an extra income that can supplement the household expenses to some extent.
He has finished all his winter vacation homework, including that for Class Monitor Qin.
So when he has nothing to do, he will help his mother with handicrafts.
Just because the clothes are not warm enough, my hands are always frozen and uncontrollable.
The reason why you don't do handicrafts near the stove is that matchboxes are flammable items.
If it is accidentally ignited, you will need to pay for it.
So, he usually sits at the table to work.
After hearing what his grandmother said, he immediately agreed.
It is already very good to have a pound of meat for making dumplings this year. I remember that last year, I used two ounces of meat repeatedly for cooking.
Then Grandma Zhu put down the work in her hands, clapped her hands, and went to her room to get flour.
She scooped a pound and a half of flour and went to the kitchen.
However, as soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Qin Han standing outside.
The child was seen standing outside her house in a daze, holding a rabbit in one hand and a chicken in the other.
"Who are you looking for, kid?" she asked.
Qin Han then looked at Zhu Likang's grandmother and immediately smiled sweetly: "Grandma, my name is Qin Han, and I'm Zhu Likang's classmate. Is he home?"
Grandma Zhu had never seen such a pretty kid, especially when he smiled, with deep dimples on his cheeks, which was so adorable that it was enough to melt you.
She nodded subconsciously: "Yes."
After she finished speaking, she immediately shouted into the room: "Li Kang, your classmates are here to see you."
Zhu Likang, who was working, paused for a moment. He was the only student with the surname Zhu in the class, and no one knew where he lived. Who would be looking for him?
"Grandma, I got it. I'll be right out." After putting the firewood box away, Zhu Likang walked out quickly.
Then he saw someone he didn't expect: "Sergeant Qin, why are you here?" As he said that, he quickly came to Qin Han's side.
After that, he introduced Qin Han to grandma: "Grandma, this is my deskmate, Class Monitor Qin. He is the one who takes good care of me in school and often gives me chicken legs to eat."
However, he was really curious about how Squad Leader Qin Han found his home. His home was an hour and a half away from Zaojiazhuang. How did such a young child walk such a long way and carry so many things in his hands?
When Grandma Zhu learned that it was this child, she often improved the food for her eldest grandson, and she and her daughter-in-law also benefited a lot. She hurriedly said, "Why don't you invite your classmate into the living room to warm up by the fire? It's cold outside, don't catch a cold."
"Child, grandma is going to make dumplings for you. Stay and eat them before you leave." She looked at Qin Hanba.
Qin Han smiled and said, "No, my family is waiting for me to go back for the New Year's Eve dinner.
The reason I came here today was actually to deliver something. These pheasants and rabbits were hunted by my eldest and second uncles in the mountains.
Since today is New Year’s Eve, I sent one to each of you.”
