Chapter 237 (1/2)

The blind woman lives alone, and her children don't come except at the end of the year. Usually, if you come, you must have something to do. Either your granddaughter wants to buy a piano, or the car is broken and has no money to repair. Anyway, it's not over if you don't collect all the money that the blind woman picked up and changed.

At the end of the new year, I can come to have a reunion dinner. My daughter-in-law cooks, my daughter washes the dishes, and my grandchildren walk around. It's fun. The blind woman lived frugally. Her savings for a year were spent on this day. She bought some good dishes, made some boxes of snacks, and wrapped a big red envelope for her grandchildren.

Although she knows that they all miss her house, if there is no house, maybe they won't come back for the new year. But she was still happy and willing to go out to pick up junk every day and save money to wait for this day every year.

The blind woman also had a cat. After her children moved out, she and the cat depended on each other.

She picks up junk every day. When she goes out, her cat is at home. For so many years, the house is full of garbage, but there has never been a mouse.

Although the blind woman is old, she has a good memory. I picked up a few bottles and a few kilograms of cardboard today. I know it very well. Sometimes when one night passed, there would be more waste bottles on the ground. The blind woman knew that they were picked up by the cat.

The cat doesn't want to eat well. The blind woman eats whatever she eats. She gets some fish soup and vegetable soup. She also eats very delicious.

When the cat is old, it no longer runs around and lies quietly every day.

Her son suddenly came back a while ago. Usually, children never come to the house in September, because at that time, most of them were blind women when they were the poorest, and the money was spent for their grandchildren during the summer vacation. Even if you have some surplus food, you should keep Chinese New Year flowers. It's strange for my son to come to the door at this time.

The blind woman asked, ”what's the matter? Did you lose your gambling money and your daughter-in-law won't let you in?” she knew that her son was fond of gambling and had the same virtue as her dead old man. She couldn't manage well and scold back.

The son said, ”No.”

The blind woman was surprised: ”what's the matter?”

The son asked, ”where's the cat?”

The blind woman said, ”the cat bothers you. What are you doing with it?”

The son said, ”call the cat and tell me to take it away.”

The blind woman was not happy: ”you are all unworthy. I'll rely on it as a companion. If you take it away, how can I live?”

The son left unhappily.

The next day my daughter came.

The daughter said, ”Mom, where's the cat?”

The blind woman felt something wrong and asked, ”what are you looking for a cat for?”

The daughter said, ”lily wants to have a cat, so take your cat to her.”

Lily is the daughter of her daughter and the niece of the blind woman. If the niece really likes it, she's willing, but she knows Lily doesn't like cats. Every time she sees cats during the new year, she thinks they're dirty and hides away.

The blind woman said, ”the cat is old and it's hard to walk. Go and buy lily a kitten. It won't cost much.”

The daughter left unhappily.
