Chapter 195: Home
I was held by her, she was in front and I was behind. She was not dissatisfied with me because of my embarrassing appearance, but was worried about my health and the health of my limbs. Even if I was healthy, I couldn't bring anything to her, why did she do this again?
"What a strange woman." I couldn't help but secretly say, was it because I was thinking too much? Or was the script just beginning?
Gradually, Tenia pulled me away from the bustling street market and walked to a place similar to a slum. The garbage there was everywhere, and the air was filled with the stench emitted by the long-term accumulation of garbage. On the ground were the road mixed with mud and rotten garbage, and the civilians in rags were dealing with the strange-smelling food.
Tenaiya seemed familiar here. She pulled me to avoid the mud on the streets. It didn't take long for her to take me to a dilapidated door.
It is hard to imagine that when Tenaiya opened the squeaking wooden door, the dilapidation inside surprised me.
The first thing I saw was an old woman, wearing patched clothes, standing by the fireplace, holding a wooden spoon in both hands, and her rough and shriveled hands burst out, as if she had tried her best. The old woman looked very familiar from her side. With Tenia, I knew that she must be Tenia's mother-Prasvia.
"Why, you live in such a broken place."
I can't understand, because I remember that I once gave the old doctor Bella a bunch of Oren gold coins that were enough to make this family live a wealthy life, but they actually lived in this slum full of garbage, with only rats and people from the bottom of society.
I stood at the door and refused to enter because, I suddenly understood why Tenaiya didn't dislike me anymore, because their current living conditions were not as I imagined.
"Luga?"
Tenia pulled me in front a few times and found that she couldn't pull me at all. Then she turned around and looked at me curiously. She didn't know what I was thinking.
I refused to go in because I refused to accept this fact. No, it must be Tenaiya testing me, but I was so embarrassed, but I still had to test like this. I kept muttering in my heart, I wanted to see what Tenaiya was thinking. It’s not that I don’t trust Tenaiya, I just feel that after experiencing so much, the word trust is really a very longing but unrealized word for me.
"Luga, what's wrong with you?"
A hint of loss appeared in Tenaya's eyes. Maybe it was because she was smart and understood what I was thinking in my heart now. I saw her loss, but I didn't want to embarrass her so much. This was a chance for me.
"Oh, oh, nothing." I smiled, looked up at her face, and followed her into the dilapidated house. At this time, the smile returned to Tenaya's face. She couldn't wait to take me home. I really don't know how long she imagined this scene and how long she had practiced such a move.
As soon as I entered the door, the first thing I was greeted was the full smell of thick soup. The old woman Plasvia was frowning and trying hard to stir the wooden spoon, allowing the fragrance of the rolling soup to fill the small dark hut.
"Mom, see who is back!"
Tenia let go of my hand and trotted all the way to the old woman Plasvia, hugging the old woman who was still working hard to make soup. The words were filled with joy, as if they were really a great person.
