Zhou Mo spent her Saturday afternoon following the address given by her teacher and bought a bunch of bananas to visit. Upon seeing the item she brought, Master and his wife both said she was wasting money, but she felt it was the least she could do as a courtesy. Even if she were poorer, this was not an expense she could skip.
Zheng Yun, the teacher, was the principal of City First High School and had retired. Therefore, he lived in the staff housing complex. The house was old, but the elderly couple kept it very clean.
The Master's wife was very warm to her, probably aware of her background and felt great pity for her. She even sorted out a bag of clothes from her granddaughter and great-granddaughter to give to her.
Zhou Mo was deeply touched. The clothes, given by the city folks, looked so much better compared to what she wore. Seeing that her shoes were peeling but still worn, the Master's wife found several pairs of proper-fitting sneakers for her.
