00:00The poor little boy sitting by the roadside looked at a rich couple walking past and said,
00:04Can you please give me a plastic bag?
00:06The rich man smiled and said, Of course, and handed him one.
00:09The boy quickly tied the plastic bag around one of his feet like a shoe.
00:12The rich couple was shocked.
00:13Then the boy asked, Can I please have one more bag?
00:16The rich man took the flowers out of another bag and gave the empty bag to him.
00:19The boy tied it around his other foot.
00:21With sadness in his eyes, he asked, Can I have those flowers too?
00:24The rich man's wife softly said, He is very poor, please give him the flowers.
00:28The man gave him the bouquet, and the boy's face lit up with a smile.
00:31He thanked them and walked away.
00:33After he left, the wife said, This boy looks very poor.
00:35Maybe this is our chance to help someone.
00:37Let's follow him.
00:38Her husband agreed.
00:39The boy walked to a quiet place, calling Mom.
00:41Mom.
00:42The couple followed him.
00:43Soon he stopped at his mother's grave and said, Mom, can you hear me?
00:46I'm here.
00:46Look, I brought flowers for you.
00:48You loved flowers, didn't you?
00:49Then he took off his school bag, which was made from plastic bags, and pulled out his report card.
00:53Mom, today I got full marks in math.
00:55You always wanted me to succeed.
00:57I wish you were here to see me.
00:58You would be so happy.
00:59Tears filled his eyes.
01:00The rich couple felt heartbroken.
01:02When no one answered, the boy picked up his bag and sadly walked away.
01:05They quietly followed him.
01:06The boy reached his house and said, Uncle, I'm home.
01:09His uncle coldly replied, So what?
01:11The boy happily said, I got full marks in math.
01:13His uncle answered, I don't care.
01:15Then the boy said, Uncle, I'm very hungry.
01:17Please give me something to eat.
01:18His uncle threw a dirty plate in front of him and said, There is no food.
01:21Wash this plate and leave.
01:22Then he angrily walked away.
01:24The hungry boy lowered his head and left.
01:26The rich couple kept following him.
01:28A little later, the uncle was talking with his girlfriend.
01:30She asked him for $4,000.
01:32He proudly said, Everything my brother's wife left now belongs to me.
01:36She left $5,000 for her son.
01:38But now we will spend that money together.
01:40The rich couple stopped the boy.
01:41He looked down at the plastic bags tied to his feet.
01:44The rich man gently asked, Who was that man?
01:46And why does he treat you like that?
01:47The boy replied, He is my uncle.
01:49He always treats me this way.
01:51The rich woman asked, Where is your mother?
01:52The boy answered, She passed away six months ago.
01:55Since then, my uncle often throws me out of the house.
01:57I stay hungry because he doesn't give me food on time.
02:00He doesn't even pay for my school.
02:01I miss my mom every day.
02:03The couple felt very sorry for him.
02:04The rich man said, We have to leave now, but please wait for us.
02:08We promise we will help you.
02:09They left.
02:10Later, when the boy returned home, his uncle was still with his girlfriend.
02:13As soon as he saw the boy, he shouted, Why are you here?
02:16Get out of my house.
02:17He was about to throw the boy outside when the rich couple arrived with the police.
02:21The police officer immediately arrested the cruel uncle.
02:23Then the rich man gently removed the plastic bags from the boy's feet and put a new pair
02:28of shoes on him.
02:29The rich woman gave him a real school bag so he could continue his education.
02:33Finally, the kind couple adopted the homeless boy as their own son and took him home.
02:37Do you think the rich couple did the right thing by helping the homeless boy?
