The uncle soaked dry noodles, and the woman's words made him cry!On the train, the woman found that the uncle was soaking the dry noodles in hot water, and she was distressed and reminded him: "Grandpa, you can't eat it like this!."But the uncle said, "It's okay, I've been hungry for a day, as long as I can eat enough......The woman was sad when she heard this, and quickly took out her lunch box and gave half of it to the uncle, who was so moved that he cried!
*: Pan'an Media).
The train carriage was silent, and the passengers closed their eyes to recuperate. A lady sits by the window and enjoys the scenery outside the window.
Opposite sat an old man in shabby clothes and a peaked cap that could not hide his gray and sparse hair.
Suddenly, a grunt broke the silence of the carriage. It turned out that the old man hadn't eaten for a day, and his stomach made a ** sound.
The old man touched his stomach with some embarrassment, took out an old stainless steel basin from the bag he was carrying, then took out a handful of dry noodles and put it in the basin, stood up and went to get a cup of boiling water.
When the lady saw it, she thought that the old man didn't know much about the situation, and reminded: "Uncle, eating dry noodles like this may not be good for the stomach." ”
The old man replied shyly: "I know, but I haven't eaten all day, let's fill my stomach a little first!."Instant noodles are not cost-effective, and for the money of a pack of instant noodles, I can buy a pound of dried noodles......”
The lady was a little shocked when she heard this, and then a sour feeling welled up in her heart. There was a boxed lunch in the car, but the old man was reluctant to spend money on it. Looking at the old man's dry and rough **, the finger joints are thick, and the wrinkles seem to tell the ruthless ...... of the years
The lady couldn't help but ask in her heart, does the old man have no money?Is it really because I didn't work hard enough when I was young?Can hard work really make people rich?The old man also paid for the society when he was young, why does he not have a pension when he is old?
The more she thought about it, the more sympathetic she became, so she handed the instant noodles she had prepared to the old man ......
The old man thanked him repeatedly, but what made the lady feel sad was that the old man directly mixed the instant noodles into the noodles, saying that he was reluctant to waste the noodles!
The lady understood that persuasion was futile, and there were mixed feelings along the way. When she got out of the car, she gave all the cash and snacks to the old man, telling herself that she could help a little ......
It's really emotional to encounter such a scene!Some people may question, how can the elderly not have the money to eat instant noodles?And why can you afford to take the train?
It is worth reflecting on, if it were your parents who had extra money, would you choose to eat boiled blister noodles?
Taking the train is the most economical mode of transportation, and the elderly may be able to save money to work in distant places to survive.
How many of the workers in the city who sweep the streets and trim trees are under the age of 50?Some are over 60 years old and still working in the city. Why do they still work at this age?Because they can't make money from farming, they take advantage of the busy farming season to go to the city to earn some pocket money in case of emergency!Saving money is a consistent Xi of farmers!
Therefore, it is not that you can't afford instant noodles, and it's not that you can't afford to eat, but you are saving money. It is not easy for them to make money, let alone so old!
Of course, it is difficult for the elderly with pensions to understand the pressure of ordinary people!
But, may I ask, does social assistance really help those in need?Today, the gap between the rich and the poor is becoming more and more obvious, and the poorest people are still the rural areas and peasants
Touch the calluses on their hands, look at their vicissitudes of life, 365 days a year, how have they ever been idle?
Therefore, hard work may only solve the problem of food and clothing, but it is not easy to get rich!
No salt face, no word face, no face!
It was a clear soup without salt noodles, and the tears fell into the bowl before it felt salty. There is no need to taste it in a hurry, and I still feel sad in my stomach!Fortunately, there are kind-hearted people who have reached out to help, warmed the elderly, and also brought a touch of warmth to our cold winter days!
