Chapter 143: Begging

Then Li Jingzhe walked in an alleyway on Hongtang Street and found that it was actually a few old adobe huts.

After an unknown number of years of wind and rain, these huts are clearly dilapidated and may fall over at any time, not as if they could live in.

However, as Li Jingzhe continued to walk inside, he suddenly saw a pair of dark eyes staring at him at the door and window of a relatively complete cabin.

Li Jingzhe was taken aback by these eyes, and almost subconsciously stopped in place, but when he looked over it carefully, he discovered that it was an old man with wrinkles and a gray-blue hat.

The old man's face was waxy yellow, and he looked at himself motionlessly, like a wax statue.

Li Jingzhe hesitated, but took a step forward and asked the old man with a smile on his face:

"Hello old man, do you live here?"

"I am a member of our community who cares about lonely elderly people. I want to know more about your situation, and I will give you some help and support based on the situation."

Hearing Li Jinzhe's words, the old man nodded slightly, then stepped back into the darkness.

Just when Li Jingzhe thought something bad would happen, the wooden door on the side suddenly creaked and opened slowly, and a trembling figure gradually leaned against the door and beckoned to Li Jingzhe.

Li Jingzhe slowly approached the other party, and the coolness became more obvious as he approached.

But he didn't think too much, this shadyness is understandable.

After all, this earthen house was blocked from the sun by the tall buildings not far away. Although it is still in the middle of autumn, because there is no sun, the place is indeed shady.

Even because of wearing short sleeves, Li Jingzhe felt that his goose bumps were getting a little bit.

No wonder the old man in front of him is wearing long sleeves and a hat on his head. It is indeed a bit cold.

Regarding the elderly living in such a place, Li Jingzhe did not actually feel anything wrong.

With no children and no relatives to take care of, even many elderly people are exclusive and valuable. It is a blessing in misfortune to have such a place that can shelter from wind and rain.

He looked at some white clouds in the sky. There was a gust of cold wind blowing from the entrance to the blue sky.

Li Jingzhe did not enter the house directly, but stood at the door and looked inside.

In the dim light, as far as the eyes are concerned, there are only a few simple benches and a small table with a missing leg. As for the window where the other party was just now, there is only a simple wooden bed behind it, and there are some broken beddings on the wooden bed. .

Watching this scene shows how bad the old man's living environment is.

Although Li Jingzhe never thought he was a kind person, seeing this scene inevitably gave birth to a little sympathy.

He tried to communicate with the old man, but found that the old man's teeth were almost all lost, and he couldn't speak clearly. It took a lot of effort to learn something from the other person.

The other party is indeed alone. Although he has been married, his wife has no fertility, so he has no children in his life.

Later, when her husband died, she gradually broke off contact with those relatives and friends, living here alone, relying on the neighbors around to help.

But sometimes the neighbors forgot about her, she would go out to beg if she was too hungry.
