The waiter looked up and was startled when he saw Hua Xiaogu's face. Then, his smile suddenly became familiar, and he narrowed his eyes and said, "Girl, it's you."
Seeing that Xiaoer still remembered her, Hua Xiaogu smiled and nodded at him.
The little boy paused for a moment, as if he suddenly remembered something. He turned around and said to the old beggar behind Hua Xiaogu: "Hey, it's this girl."
Hua Xiaogu didn't understand for a while. Before she could react, the little girl in front of her was already busy: "Do you still remember the old man behind you? The money you left behind is enough for this old man.
Riliang has been eating steamed buns here for more than half a year. Now he has come to pick up the steamed buns for three or four months. He has asked Xiao Xiao many times which kind person invited him to eat so many steamed buns. Now it is a coincidence.
, you two come to the shop together!"
The waiter said with a smile, and his voice was neither too loud nor too soft, as if he was talking in a homely manner. There were always neighbors who heard what he said, and all of them looked at Hua Xiaogu.
Hua Xiaogu was a little embarrassed and stretched out his hand to scratch his head: "Do you still remember..."
"Of course, our boss said that there are not many people with a bodhisattva-hearted heart like the girl, so naturally we have to give the old man buns according to the girl's wishes. The old man comes every day, so the little one will remember it clearly.
It's just that, girl, you haven't been to the store for so many months, I thought you were away from home."
Hua Xiaogu nodded: "I did go on a far journey. I'm back now, but I miss your Baozi."
The two joked for a while, and the waiter quickly wrapped the buns for Hua Xiaogu. Hua Xiaogu carried the hot buns, and Baitao took out the coins from his arms, counted them, and handed them to the waiter. The two turned around.
, then they saw the old beggar standing behind them, and he had been listening to them for an unknown amount of time.
Hua Xiaogu caught the old man's gaze and felt a little embarrassed. She nodded towards the old man, walked around and prepared to leave with Baitao.
The two of them did not look back, they just chatted and laughed all the way towards the side courtyard. Before taking two steps, Baitao paused at his feet, looked back, and then gently turned Hua Xiaogu.
"girl……"
Hua Xiaogu followed Baitao's gaze and looked back, and saw the old man following them about five or six steps behind them.
"Girl, why is that old beggar following us?" Baitao is timid, especially since he and Hua Xiaogu have seen a lot of troubles along the way, and now he is even more afraid of them.
Hua Xiaogu tilted his head and looked at the old beggar, and saw that the old man was lowering his head, as if he was not looking at them. And he was not holding a bun in his hand... Could it be that the old man didn't take a bun today?
Then turned around and followed them?
"Maybe it's just the way, let's not worry about it." Hua Xiaogu blinked, turned around and whispered to Baitao.
Baitao secretly glanced in that direction twice more, thinking to herself that anyway, this place was only a few steps away from the other courtyard, and even if the old man had malicious intentions, he couldn't harm her girl.
The two of them felt relieved and continued walking forward.
She turned a corner and passed through this secluded alley, which was only about a hundred or two hundred meters away. At the end of the alley was the Tian family's villa. Although Hua Xiaogu had persuaded Baitao, she still had a misconception in her heart. When she turned the corner, she looked like
If Ruo Wu accidentally glanced aside, he saw the figure of the old beggar not far away.
