Chapter 1189
"That's the rule of this place," spoke the person in charge sternly." Regardless of whether I want to help you or not, I'll still be punished if I break the rules."
Those around them murmured, "This young girl is too pitiable. Why did she end up here?" "Young girl, where's your family?" "Give me the number and we'll help you contact them, alright?"
The crowd was asking, but none of them was willing to help her.
It was not that they could not spare a few bucks; they knew they would have to do it again if they did it once.
Those who were in the temple must have faced troubles of their own to have come to this place for blessings, thus it was only natural that they had no spare energy to help others...even though she was a pitiable girl.
The young girl pouted sadly as tears rolled down her face. "I'm an orphan...I don’t have a family... Waa...!"
The crowd gasped at that, and one of the women was moved. She came to seek blessings for her daughter-in-law who could not conceive. She wanted to become a grandmother.
This girl was an orphan, and she could adopt her!
Sure, she was not a boy, but it was better than nothing!
It was then and there she decided, but just as she was about to speak...
"Child..." called Grandma Granger as she approached her by the side, helping her up.
"What would you like to eat? Come with me, and I'll buy for you."
The young girl blinked her big eyes as she muttered weakly, "I want to eat buns...hot buns... Not too many, just one, or even a half!”
Her voice was so adorable that it melted Grandma Granger's heart.
A genial smile spread across Grandma Granger's features as all thoughts of wanting to know Guy’s future disappeared. "Okay," she assured the girl, I’ll buy you some!”
The overjoyed young girl nodded obediently.
"My dear, if you go with her, you’ll only get one meal," spoke the woman with reluctance in her tone. "If you come with me, you'll get many meals forever."
The young girl inwardly scoffed, 'I'll never run out of meals and clothes!
Hmph!'
Outwardly, however, she had a grateful look on her face. 'Thank you, Grandma, but I've decided to go with this friendly Grandma. She looks nice
and gentle, and I'll be happy to get one meal with her!"
Grandma Granger could not fight the smile that surfaced.
This young girl would give up the chance to get meals for her entire life for one meal with her, just because she looked friendly?
Why did she find this young girl very clever, and so likable at that?
