A light in the distance makes me alert. I think of the robberies in novels and TV plays. After all, I am a young girl, so I hide behind the trees by the road and watch it quietly. An old man was dragging a car slowly, and an old woman in front of him showed him the way with a flashlight. I just walked out at ease, but scared them a lot. It turned out that they had sold out baked sweet potatoes in the market town in front of them. The old woman saw that I was the only one. She held my hand tightly for fear that I would run away and ask about it. I answered her question truthfully, she didn't say much, just took a hot baked sweet potato out of the stove and put it in my hand. I refuse not to. In fact, I'm so hungry that I'm shouting directly. It's just a pretext that I don't have money in my pocket.
“小姑娘,吃吧,想必你也饿了,这红薯是送给你的,不要钱!”老大爷温和地说。“谢谢了!”我话没说完就狼吞虎咽地吃了起来。他们见我吃得“吧嗒吧嗒”作响一副馋相,老两口于是笑了起来。我一边舔着手指上沾着的薯泥,一边不停地道谢,这时老太婆发话了:“你吃了我一个红薯就千恩万谢,那你的父母养育你十多年,你该吃了他们多少粮食,怎么就为一句不中听的话就离家出走,你觉得这应该吗?”我愣住了,痴痴地望着老太婆,咀嚼着这简单而富有力度的话语,刚刚还愤愤不平的心霎时变得内疚起来,我无言以对,只是低下了尚存余怒的头。
