Chapter Thirty-Six: The Numbers Are Too Big

Liu Xijiao's home is in the middle of Fenghua Village, and it didn't take much effort for him to find the little girl's home. This is a dilapidated low adobe house, the walls of which have been eroded by wind and rain, and the walls are already full of holes, as if they are about to collapse when the wind blows. Looking up, the roof tiles were also broken, mixed with some thatch, and in the breeze, the silk thatch continued to flutter in the wind.

Liu Xijiao's house was not locked, and Lang Mo raised his feet and stepped into the mottled door. I saw that there was only a hall with nothing inside. There were two things, a crumbling table, and some tattered furniture. But Lang Mo found that although it was so simple, it was very clean. There were three rooms next to the hall, one of which he saw was the kitchen, and the other was the bedroom.

Lang Mo stood in the hall and shouted, "Is there anyone?" and "Who?" A childish child's voice came from the kitchen. Lang Mo came to the kitchen door, only to see a little girl groping in front of the stove door to find something, Lang Mo fixed his eyes and saw that she was Liu Xijiao.

Lang Mo asked: "Liu Xijiao, what are you looking for?" Xiaoxijiao: "I'm looking for matches, I want to prepare a fire to cook dinner!" "I'll help you!" Lang Mo finished talking and helped her burn the stove. Then add some water to the pot again. After doing this, he asked, "Liu Xijiao, what else do you have to do, you tell me." Xiao Xijiao tilted her little head and suddenly said, "Are you, are you the wolf principal?" "Yes, you are alone at home, what about your parents?" "My mother went to work in the field, and my father went to the vegetable field to pick peppers. I boiled the water first and waited for Mom and Dad to come back and take a shower. "Then can you see clearly?" "I can't see it clearly, especially in the past two days, my eyes are always painful, and I can't see things clearly!"

Hearing this, Lang Mo's heart suddenly swelled with an unspeakable bitterness. The so-called children of the poor are in charge of the family early, and the children in the countryside are not as happy as the children in the city. After class, no matter how big or small, they almost have to work, such as pigweed, cattle, ducks, fishgrass, helping adults in the field, carrying water and cooking..... And so on and so forth, there is almost no end to the work. This is already an unfair ordeal for the children in these villages. He shook his head and sighed, "Liu Xijiao, come here, see if you can see my face clearly?"

Xiao Xijiao came to Lang Mo, who was squatting, leaned in front of his nose, looked at him for a while, and said, "Principal Wolf, I can see it clearly, but... But your face seems to be shaking!" Lang Mo frowned: shaking? He looked carefully at Xiao Xijiao's eyes, and he found that her eyes were very clear, but a little dull. If it is myopia, to the extent of hers, her eyes are not much different from the eyes of a dead fish, but her eyes are still so clear. Could it be that there is something wrong with her eyes themselves?

When I was stunned. Xiao Xi Jiao said, "Principal Wolf, I've drawn a lot of paintings! Come and see! Come on, come on...." There was only a simple little bed in the room, and a table improvised with wooden planks. Coming to the table, Xiao Xijiao picked up a few drawings on the table that she had drawn with her homework book. handed it to Lang Mo and said, "Principal Wolf, you see this is a painting I painted, there are piglets, the sun, and sunflowers! After reading a few photos, he saw a human figure painting, and the person in the painting was very tall and thin. Lang Mo smiled and asked, "Liu Xijiao, who is the person in this painting?" "Haha, this is Principal Wolf!" "Then why did you paint me?" "Because I heard the village chief and my uncle say that Principal Wolf is a big intellectual." That's why I'm going to be a great intellectual like Principal Wolf in the future. Principal Wolf, you say, okay?"

Lang Mo stroked the little guy's head and said, "Okay, good, our little Jiaojiao will definitely become a big intellectual in the future." "One big and one small are chatting. Footsteps were heard outside the door. Xiaoxi Jiao heard this: "Principal Wolf, my mother is back!"

At the door, Xiaoxijiao's mother put down the hoe. Flicked the dust off his body with a hand towel, walked into the house, and was stunned when he saw Lang Mo, but immediately reacted: "Isn't this the wolf principal? Sit down quickly!" Lang Mo smiled: "You're welcome, you're welcome, because Liu Xijiao didn't come to school today, so I came to take a look!" He replied while looking at her: about thirty years old, she is very beautiful, with a melon seed face, willow eyebrows and big eyes, but her eyes are very melancholy, and her face is also very haggard, but her figure is quite good, she should be concave and convex. If you raise your spirit, you will definitely be a beauty.

She poured a bowl of water, brought it to Lang Mo and said, "Principal Wolf, thank you so much for coming to see Jiaojiao, I told her not to go to school today, I'm afraid of her... I'm afraid she'll fall!" Lang Mo nodded lightly: "Well, there is indeed this problem, but this is not a solution, after all, the child has to study, and she is still a good seedling." I just looked into her eyes, they shouldn't be short-sighted, can you tell me what's going on with her glasses?"

Hearing this, her expression became very helpless: "Jiaojiao, before it gets dark, can you go to the door to see if your father has come back?" Xiaoxi Jiao replied briskly: "Okay, I'll go now!" "Be careful." Don't fall!"

Wait for Xiaoxi Jiao to go out. She suddenly lowered her head, wiped her eyes with her hands, and forcibly said with sadness: "Principal Wolf, maybe you can also see that this child can't see clearly, it is indeed not myopia, but an eye disease." Lang Mo frowned and asked, "What eye disease?" That's what happened, when she was seven years old, she was playing once, she accidentally fell and fell a big bag on her head, and her father and I didn't care about it at the time, who knows, since then, her eyesight has been declining year by year, until the first half of this year, when we felt wrong, it was too late to take her to the hospital for examination, according to the doctor in the city, because it was not dealt with at that time, there was bruise in the head, as if the retinal nerve was blocked, and the operation was going to be done, and the brain had to be opened, but it was ...... ”

Lang Mo was anxious: "But, what is it, then hurry up and let her go for surgery, if she doesn't do it, her eyes may be blind!" Although Lang Mo doesn't know anything about medicine, he still seems to understand a little bit of some basic things, if the optic nerve is completely destroyed, Xiaoxijiao's eyes will be completely ruined! This is something that no one wants to see.

After listening to Lang Mo's words, Xiaoxijiao's mother finally couldn't control her emotions, hid her face and cried bitterly, and after a while, she said: "But we don't have any money! I heard the doctor say that this operation is not only very dangerous, but also costs tens of thousands of yuan, look at our family! How can we have so much money!" Lang Mo looked around, and said helplessly: "No money, you won't borrow it, this is related to Xiaoxijiao's life!"

After hearing this, Xiaoxijiao's mother shook her head in despair and said, "Principal Wolf, you don't know! It's not that we don't borrow money, but we really can't borrow it! We already owe a lot of debts." "Debt?" "Yes, the child's father is also sick, it is chronic nephritis, and he has to run to the hospital at every turn, over the years, we have spent 60,000 yuan, if it weren't for this, how would our family be like this?"

After a while, Lang Mo moved his buttocks and said to Xiaoxijiao's mother: "If Xiaoxijiao wants to have surgery, how much will it cost?" "How can I get seventy or eighty thousand!" "Seventy or eighty thousand, not a small number." It's really difficult!" He touched the back of his head, then picked up the bowl of water on the table, drank it in one gulp, wiped his mouth and said: "Otherwise, I will think of a way to pay for Xiaoxijiao's surgery!

After listening to Lang Mo's words, Xiaoxijiao's mother's big eyes suddenly burst into bright light. She grabbed Lang Mo's hand, her feet weakened, and she knelt down in front of Lang Mo with a bang. Frightened, Lang Mo rushed to help her, but she couldn't afford to live: "Thank you, thank you!" I only have this one child, I don't want her to suffer, but I'm sorry for her now, but why can't his father have the slightest way, seeing her like this, our hearts are broken! If you can help her, my Miao Feng will repay you as a cow and a horse!"

Lang Mo helped her up, sat her on the stool and said, "Don't do this, I said, I will do my best." But as long as there is a little hope, I will try my best, okay?" Miao Feng nodded desperately.

Coming out of Xiaoxi Jiao's house, it was already very dark. As soon as I left the gate, I saw Xiaoxijiao holding a hunchbacked thin man hobbling home. In the twilight, the two of them supported each other, and it was really hard to see it anymore. Lang Mo spat fiercely into the sky. Towards the school.

Tens of thousands of quick money, for Lang Molai, who just joined the job. This is undoubtedly an astronomical amount of money. Besides, he is just a teacher, and the teacher has always regarded himself as having a clean life and noble morals, so where should this money come from? If there is no money, then Xiaoxijiao will live like this all her life? But he knows his character very well, and he is neither a good person nor a saint! At the same time, he also understands a truth, everything must be done according to one's ability. For example, if someone falls into the water, if you can't swim, but you want to save it, then it is equivalent to sending yourself to death. If he let Xiaoxijiao drop out of school naturally, he wouldn't have any responsibility, after all, this is not within his ability! But when he thought of Xiaoxijiao's distracted eyes and her innocent dreams, Lang Mo's heart was still not happy, and he didn't expect that as soon as he came out of work, he would encounter such a thing, which was too embarrassing for him.

He sat in the school dormitory, frowning and moving around the room with his chin in his hands. One moment sighing, the next scratching head. After a long time, he finally stopped walking around and scolded fiercely: "Damn, you fool! Isn't it just tens of thousands of yuan! Lao Tzu is out of the way!"
