At that moment, Wang Dali said, "Lei Feng, you have so much savings, but you still can't afford to buy a pair of socks. Look, don't you mind wearing these socks on your feet?" Uncle Lei Feng said, "As long as they don't delay my work, it's fine!" Wang Dali said, "Don't you think it's ugly?" "We soldiers don't wear our socks for others to see."
