Grandfather wandered around the market in search of someone who will accept his order as payment, only one boy responded.

As trivial as it may sound, but do good You need more in life. It is clear that with our rhythm of life it is impossible to think about your neighbor again. Times are such that you can not take care of yourself. And then there's family, family, friends, finally. But we're all human, we don't forget that.



Piabay, for example, are older people. Pensions, as we all know, are laughable. So we have to wait for this “deserved rest” and really fear. Who will take care of them? State? It is better to pay attention to the elderly. Unfortunately, they also have problems.

Kohl did not like to come to his grandmother for the summer. Friends are all in town, no internet. What should I do? But Grandma decided this in her own way. Work, what else? You can’t say that the guy somehow especially smelled, but you wanted to spend precious days of sunny childhood on something really useful. For example, games on the console.



piabay On the other hand, assistance in digging potatoes was generously paid. Earned funds were also added to the money received from parents. And came out a decent, according to Colin estimates, amount. Find a place to spend it. The village store did not indulge in an abundance of goods. Waiting for my parents to come to town was not enough. All disappointments.

Once, when the guy was standing at the market and selling his grandmother’s potatoes, he noticed his grandfather. He went from seller to seller, showed something, but everyone shook his head negatively. Finally, it was the guy's turn. Grandfather approached him with a wary expression, extended his hand with some rag and turned around. In a dirty piece of cloth lay orders.

- Here, son, buy it, huh? We need money, nothing to burn. They cost a lot more in the city.



But Kolya was old enough to realize that other adults don’t always tell the truth. Money for firewood? Doubtful. But going to the store and buying something not very useful is easy!

- Sorry, Grandpa. There is no cash register, no one buys potatoes.

The old man just looked down and went home. And the guy continued to stand up and sell roots. Just 10 minutes later, he completely forgot about the dialogue, because the buyer came with the car and began to desperately bargain for an extra 20 rubles.

In the evening, coming home, Nicholas sat down to dinner with his grandmother and told her about his day. As always, life in the countryside is quite monotonous. Maybe that's why the villagers are so calm. Why be nervous if nothing changes? Then the guy remembered his grandfather. He also sniffed, saying that his grandfather Ivan would have had a good drinking partner.

But Grandma just looked at the boy with judgment.



- You're so stupid. And you can't judge people. I know him, he doesn't drink. He recently lost his wife and is now alone. The hero, the orders are real. We'll have to get in touch with Galina, go to him, or something. Support. You don't want me to hear that again. In my time, the older children respected me. What a generation.



The rest of the evening Kole was ashamed of his words. The fact that a person could really be in such a difficult situation, he did not think. I also told my grandmother, joker. Bad thing, wrong thing.

The next morning he was looking for his grandfather to apologize. An hour later, he saw him. Obviously, no one was interested in awards. Then Kolya came by himself.

- Hello, I bought a little, let's buy your orders.
- Yeah, you know you can make money off of them? I get it. Well, give me the money, count the last one.

After that, Grandpa left. So far, everything has gone according to plan. The boy left the market early, took leftover potatoes to his grandmother. Then I looked at the local tractor driver, he had his own garage and even a set of good tools. Hearing from Koli his request and intentions, he did not even take money from him. I cleaned up the orders free of charge, made it shine.

In the evening, Nikolai and her grandmother and her friend Galina came to the veteran’s home. They bought some cake, brought some food. Galina took home preservation. Smoke came out of the chimney, Grandpa was home.



There was no limit to his gratitude. Even a few tears rolled down his cheek. The man recognized the boy, although he changed clothes, the guests still. That evening, people gathered to talk and support each other. And Kolya made the right conclusions for himself. The money earned was not wasted. They helped those who truly needed them.
