day.
Yu Hongren and his grandmother Sanpang and the others walked to the intersection. Goudan stopped and said to them: "Young master, young grandma, it's time for me to go back!"
Yu Hongren: "Uncle San, are you really leaving?"
Goudan nodded: "Well, the land is gone, the master and the wife are no longer there. Why do you think I'm still staying in your house?"
Yu Hongren: "Uncle San, you have put a lot of effort into our family over the years, but I never expected that this family would disappear if it was gone. Alas! We are so sorry for you!"
Goudan: "Young master, it's time for this. Why are you talking about these things? Ah! You should take care of yourself in the future! Ah!" After that, he turned around and was about to leave.
Yu Hongren: "Uncle San, wait a moment."
Goudan took a few steps and stopped again: "Young Master, what else do you have?"
Yu Hongren took something from his grandmother Sanpang's hand, handed it to him, and said, "Uncle San, take this with you and serve as a souvenir!"
Goudan looked at it and said repeatedly, "No, no, no, I don't want it, I don't want it! You'd better bring it with you! Ah!" Then he turned around and walked away with big strides.

evening.
Grandma is three fat, and grandpa Yu Hongren takes his younger brother to walk aimlessly on the street.
As night fell, fewer and fewer people were on the street.
Yu Hongzhi looked at the desolate street and said in a crying voice: "Brother, sister-in-law, where are we going today?"
Grandma is three fat, and grandpa Yu Hongren doesn’t say anything.
Yu Hongzhi: "Brother, sister-in-law, I'm afraid! I'm afraid!"
Grandma stretched out her hand, took him over, comforted him and said, "****, don't be afraid! Ah! I and your brother are there."
Yu Hongren looked at the night and said to his grandma: "It's so late, let's find a place to have some food first!"
"Yes." Grandma nodded.

Night.
Grandma Sanfat, grandpa Yu Hongren and younger brother Yu Hongzhi sat at a table.
The master of the runner-up in the store came over and asked, "What are you three eating?"
Grandma Sanpang put her hand under the table, glanced at the little money she was holding in her hand, and asked carefully: "What are the staple foods do you have here?"
Master Paotang: "There are steamed buns, rice, big cakes, and noodles."
Grandma Sanfat: "What is cheap?"
Master Shutang: "Mantou."
Grandma Sanfat: "Then let's have two cages of steamed buns!"
Master Shutang: "Where are the dishes? What do you order?"
Grandma Sanpang smiled at him and said, "Oh! We don't need it."
"Okay! You guys wait!" The master of the runway agreed, and in a while, he brought two cages of steamed buns to them on the table.
My younger brother Yu Hongzhi saw the steamed bun, as if he had been hungry for many days, picked up one and ate it in big mouthfuls.
Grandma Sanpang sat there without moving.
Yu Hongren said to her: "You can eat something too!"
Grandma Sanpang shook her head: "No, I don't want to eat it, you two can eat it!"
One...two..., and in a while, only one of the two cages of steamed buns was left.
Yu Hongzhi reached out to get it again.
Yu Hongren stopped him and gave the steamed bun to grandma.
Grandma Sanpang took it and handed it to her brother: "Eat it quickly!"
Yu Hongzhi took it and bite off half of it in one bite.
