(Minghui.org) It was an autumn day when I went back to my hometown to visit my aunt. Since it was only 35 kilometers away, I chose to bike. I left home at 10:30 A.M. with two large bags of brochures and DVDs about Falun Gong to be distributed on the way.
I took many detours so that I could stop by villages that I had never visited before. I talked to everyone I met about how great Falun Gong was and how cruel the persecution had been. It was a wonderful experience – people were very happy to hear these facts, and I helped 30 people quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.
It was already 5 P.M. after I gave away all the brochures and DVDs, but there was still some distance from my hometown. So I went to a bakery to get a snack for myself and some cake as a gift for my aunt.
The bakery owner was a woman in her fifties. She seemed to be very deceived by the CCP's propaganda against Falun Gong, because she refused to listen when I told her about Falun Gong. I sensed her hostility, so I paid for my 2 pounds of cake and left the store without further conversation.
At 7 P.M., I arrived at my aunt's house and gave her the cake.
She asked, “Why did you buy so much cake for me?”
I replied, “It's just two pounds.”
My aunt said, “No, it looks like much more than 2 pounds.”
Checking the cake again, I realized that the bakery owner gave me 4 pounds of cake, probably because she had misread the scale.
The next morning on my way back home, I stopped by the bakery again to pay for the extra cake. The owner was chatting with her neighbor when I walked in. She frowned at me.
I smiled and said, “Madam, you gave me twice as much cake yesterday as I had paid for. I am here to pay for the extra cake.”
Both she and her neighbor were touched.
“You are so honest! We have not seen someone so honest for many years,” said the owner.
I told her, “Falun Gong taught me to do so, you should thank the founder of Falun Gong.”
Then I told her the facts about Falun Gong again. This time, she listened carefully.
“Wow! I did not know that Falun Gong is so good.” she said.
Her daughter came when I was leaving. I heard the bakery owner telling her daughter about me, “She is a Falun Gong practitioner. She is truly a very good person!”
