From the cold-faced and warm-hearted old woman, she learned to pick up bottles to exchange for money, and from the rag-collecting uncle, she learned that some old cardboard books, iron sheets and aluminum materials can be exchanged for money.

In the beginning, she couldn't pick up many bottles at all every day. She was small, and the trash cans were taller than her. Except for the bottles thrown on the ground, she couldn't take out the bottles in the trash can at all.

During that time, from early morning to dusk, she could pick up a few bottles in total, and happily took them to the uncle who collected the rags. At first, the uncle thought she was a child running around, and at first wanted to drive her away. After finding out that she was homeless, he was silent for a long time, and finally gave Lou Rongrong a ten-yuan note.

Lou Rongrong didn't know why the uncle was silent, and didn't know that those few bottles could not be exchanged for so much money at all. The old woman could only exchange a few yuan for a bag of plastic bottles. She only gave the uncle a few bottles, but Get a ten-dollar bill.

She just took the banknote in surprise, turned around happily and ran to buy food.

Later, every time she took the bottle to the uncle, she would get some money, sometimes ten yuan, sometimes only a few yuan, but in short, Lou Rongrong had money to buy something to eat, so she didn't have to starve.

This kind of life passed for a long time, and one day, when she was happily carrying a few bottles to the uncle to exchange money, she saw a woman with a big belly arguing with the uncle from a distance.

The main point of the quarrel was that their own child was about to be born, and they couldn't even afford milk powder, and the uncle was still giving money to other people's children for free. If this continued, what would they do if their own child starved to death.

The woman's face was thin, her hair was dry, her bones were so thin that she could see her bones, her eyes were dull, and her face was filled with the despair of being tortured by life. Her huge belly seemed about to fall without her hand.

And the man opposite him couldn't say a word, let the woman beat and scold him, and lowered his head silently while supporting the woman's waist.

Lou Rongrong stood in the distance, for a while, looked down at the few bottles in his arms, turned and left before the uncle saw him.

On this day, she carried her small cardboard box from a small park with slides to a large park with many benches, and put it down in a small corner that only her small body could get into. her carton.

She walked farther than before, tried to pick up more bottles, rushed over to ask if they wanted more bottles before they threw them away, tried to reach into the trash can to see if there were plastic bottles and Cans, lied to the new acquaintance who collects junk, and said that he came for the adults in the family.

Although after waiting for a few years, when she was able to go farther, when she passed the gate of the waste factory and saw the price list above, she realized that the uncle had not listened to her clumsy lies, and had been paying more than the market price. Higher prices are charged for the waste products picked up by oneself.

She picked up worn-out sheets, quilt covers and old clothes thrown into the trash can by others, and tried to wash them on tiptoe in the sink of the public toilet, then dragged them back to her small cardboard box to keep warm. Dirty bear dolls thrown away by children, or toy figures and building blocks with missing arms and legs.

Those children who play in the park sometimes invite her to play together, and more often, they avoid her from a distance. Sometimes there are naughty children who throw stones at her or deliberately bully her.

Most of the time, she tries her best to avoid these people and doesn't want to have a direct conflict with them, but these children will secretly sneak into the "little home" that she specially chooses and only children can get into because of fun. Overturned her cardboard box, and dumped all the toys she collected and cleaned up with great difficulty.

When Lou Rongrong came back here exhausted at night, he found that his shelter had been destroyed to the point of disrepair, and the few deposits hidden in the den had also been taken away.

Lou Rongrong silently picked up the only tattered sheet left on the ground, wrapped it around her body, and spent the night on the bench in the park.

The next day, instead of picking up the bottle, she waited in the park until the children came to the park to play as usual, and walked up to the perpetrator. The other party smiled smirk and did not speak, Lou Rongrong fisted It hit him in the face.

Children who grew up normally, how can Lou Rongrong pick up bottles and exercise a lot every day, and the children fight, no one will work as hard as Lou Rongrong, and the group of children are immediately frightened.

The one being beaten by Lou Rongrong wanted to resist at first, cursing and swearing, but unexpectedly Lou Rongrong pushed him down to the ground, and sat on him, facing his face and outputting left and right.

In the end, the battle ended with Lou Rongrong's complete victory, and the group of children left in despair. Because they had caused trouble before, they didn't dare to complain to their parents, and they all walked around when they saw Lou Rongrong.

Lou Rongrong has learned a lesson since then, and she dare not put important things in the den again, and never picks up unwanted toys from the trash dump, but occasionally sees those brand new little bears in the window of the shop And the toy man with no missing leg will be in a trance for a while, and then continue to look around for bottles and cans that others don't want.

After living like this for about half a year, when Lou Rongrong left the small park, the air was still stuffy and hot, and gradually became cooler and colder, until the first snow fell in the park.

Everyone was cheering and celebrating the coming of the first snow, and they were having snowball fights and building snowmen in the park, but Lou Rongrong almost froze to death in the heavy snow because she was not prepared for the coming of the cold.

She stuffed all the sheets and clothes she picked up into the big cardboard box she picked up later to keep warm, but she was still shivering from the cold.

Just when she thought that she was going to freeze to death this winter, the most important role in her short life appeared——

It was a school teacher who had just graduated from university and hadn't worked for a few years. She had met her boyfriend to go shopping near the park that day, but the boyfriend didn't come because he had something to do. Difficult to rummage through Lou Rongrong for plastic bottles.

Probably due to professional instinct, the female teacher immediately rushed over, stopped Lou Rongrong's behavior, told her that the trash can was dirty, so don't reach for it, and asked her where her parents were.

A little velvet, wearing a few layers of ill-fitting shabby singles, shivering in the cold wind, while looking at the female teacher blankly, her two little paws shrunk in front of her chest were dirty, and her face was full of bruises. Written innocent and pitiful.

The female teacher was speechless. Seeing this scene, she subconsciously softened. Before she had time to think about it, she took Lou Rongrong's hand and went back to the hut she rented.
