“do you need somebody to go to the store,” asked the boy, “maybe to get some milk or something? ” “don't believe i do,” said the woman, “unless you just want sweet milk yourself. i was going to make cocoa out of this canned milk i got here.” “that will be fine,” said the boy. she heated some lima beans and ham she had in the icebox, made the cocoa, and set the table. what is hughes' intention in describing what the woman serves for dinner? a. to show that despite her outward appearances, she is well off b. to show that she has more food than the boy thought c. to show that she was expecting company for dinner d. to show that although she doesn't have much, she's willing to share

Your answer would be D. because she takes the boy in and she knows he was doing wrong and she didn't have much but she's kind enough to share what she does have with the boy who had done her wrong before.
