Chapter 713 Good intentions
"it is good!"
Ni'er responded, and the two of them hurried back to the restaurant together.
We were busy until very late, all the customers in the restaurant had left, and the waiters began to pack up and prepare to close.
Cuizhi looked around and after confirming that nothing else was wrong, she called Xiaohong aside.
Xiaohong walked over with some confusion, not knowing what Cuizhi wanted to call her for.
Cuizhi took out a few packets of medicine from under the counter and put them in Xiaohong's hand.
"This is specially prepared by the shopkeeper for your grandma. When you take it back, cook it immediately and let your grandma drink it as soon as possible so that she can recover faster." Cuizhi said with concern.
Xiaohong looked at Cuizhi gratefully, nodded, and put the medicine bag in her arms.
Then, Cuizhi brought Xiaohong to a room, pointed to several bundles inside, and said, "And these, they were put together by the people in our restaurant."
"Everyone knows that your grandma is sick, so we are doing our best to help you."
Xiaohong looked in the direction of Cuizhi's finger and saw several bundles that were bulging with several exquisite small boxes beside them.
She was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. She asked quickly, "This...are these all for me?"
Cuizhi pointed at the items and said softly, "Yes, these are for you."
Xiaohong listened quietly to Cuizhi's introduction, her eyes slowly sweeping over the clothes, quilts and food.
"They have also collected some money, and we will use it to buy your grandma some of her favorite food."
"Some of the clothes are new, and some have been worn, but they have been washed clean, so you can wear them without worry."
Although these clothes are not brand new, they carry the care and kindness of others, which warms Xiaohong's heart.
Just as Cuizhi was introducing the story enthusiastically, she suddenly heard sobbing.
She turned around in surprise and found Xiaohong crying.
Cuizhi stopped talking and looked at Xiaohong with concern.
At this moment, any words of comfort might make Xiaohong cry even harder, so Cuizhi had an idea and picked up a piece of clothing.
He said to Xiaohong, "Oh, why are you crying? Don't you like these things? Look at this dress, the material is quite good."
Upon hearing this, Xiaohong quickly shook her head, tears welling up in her eyes.
She sniffed, broke into a smile, and said, "I like it, of course I like it! The material is really good. I have never worn such a nice dress."
As she spoke, she gently stroked the material of the clothes, fearing that the calluses on her hands would scratch the soft fabric.
She looked at Cuizhi and said with emotion, "I really can't repay everyone's kindness."
Seeing this, Cuizhi quickly scolded, "Who wants you to repay me? Feel free to use these things. As long as you use them well, that will be the best way to repay everyone!"
Cuizhi looked up at the sky and muttered to herself, "It's so late."
He bent down and picked up a few large bags, which looked quite heavy.
"Let's go. I'll put your things in the carriage, and you can go back in the carriage today."
Seeing this, Xiaohong hurried forward and stretched out her hand to take the bag from Cuizhi's hand, "Sister Cuizhi, it's so late, you should go back quickly, I can do it myself."
Cuizhi didn't agree to Xiaohong's request. "Two people can work faster. Besides, it's just a small amount. We can finish it sooner and go home sooner."
Seeing that Cuizhi refused to let her take any, Xiaohong felt a little bad. She quickly said, "Sister Cuizhi, you've been busy all day and must be very tired. I can handle these things myself."
As she spoke, she reached out to grab the bag from Cuizhi's hand.
Cuizhi moved quickly, dodging Xiaohong's hand by turning sideways. "Really, there's no need. Hurry up and pack these things so you can go home early and make medicine for your grandma."
Seeing that she couldn't persuade Cuizhi, Xiaohong said helplessly, "Okay, Sister Cuizhi, let's finish these chores together quickly so that you can go home earlier."
So, the two of them worked together and quickly moved all the bags onto the carriage.
As soon as Xiaohong entered the house, she started to get busy.
She first went to the kitchen and put grandma's medicine on the stove to slowly stew it, then turned back to the living room and began to pack the bags bit by bit.
As the smell of medicine gradually spread in the air, Grandma's consciousness gradually recovered.
She slowly opened her eyes and looked at the small room in front of her with some surprise. It was filled with all kinds of things and seemed a little crowded.
"Xiaohong, why are there suddenly so many things in this house?" Grandma asked in confusion.
When Xiaohong heard her grandmother's voice, she quickly took out a piece of clothing that suited her from a pile of bags, then walked quickly to her grandmother and gently shook it off.
"Grandma, these were given to me by other people in the restaurant." Xiaohong explained patiently.
Grandma took a closer look and saw that the material of the dress was very exquisite and obviously very expensive.
She quickly said, "This dress costs a lot of money. Return it to the owner quickly. We can't accept such valuable things from others."
Xiaohong put the dress on Grandma and measured it for a while, then said with a smile, "Grandma, look how well this dress fits me, and the pattern is really pretty, it's perfect for someone your age."
Although grandma’s eyesight is not very good, she can still see that the clothes are of high quality.
She touched the fabric of the dress hesitantly and said, "But this dress looks very expensive. We can't accept such an expensive gift for no reason."
Xiao Hong quickly comforted her, "Grandma, don't worry. These are clothes someone gave me because they were unwanted. You can wear them without worry. Do you want to try them on? This kind of weather is perfect for wearing them."
The elderly are more experienced.
She pointed at the dress and said, "Who would be willing to throw away such a fine piece of clothing? Look, there's not even a patch on it. It's as new as it can be! You must go and thank your boss tomorrow."
Xiaohong suddenly understood after hearing what grandma said.
It turns out that all this was the shopkeeper’s kindness!
She deliberately gave these things to herself in the name of others, simply because she didn't want to feel too burdened.
The shopkeeper really has good intentions.
Xiaohong hugged the clothes and tears started flowing again.
There have been so many happy events in the past two days.
Not only is there hope for a cure for Grandma's illness, but there are also so many unexpected surprises.
She secretly made up her mind that after her grandmother recovered, she would find time to go to the temple to burn incense and fulfill her vows, and she would also work hard to repay the shopkeeper.
"Grandma, when you get better, let's go together and thank the shopkeeper, okay?"
