Chapter 1012: Poverty in the Village
The eggs are in the stomach.
Xiaoyu patted her stomach with satisfaction, not to mention that she didn't have many chances to eat eggs.
Most of her and her father's wages were paid to patients by her father in a month.
So their family is not much better than the village chief's family.
She hadn't eaten an egg in a long time.
The last time I ate eggs, it seemed to be her birthday.
My own mother died early, and my father depended on each other, every year on her birthday, my father would boil an egg for her, that was her birthday treatment, so many years, every year, so the taste of this egg is really indescribably delicious.
Just like that, Xiaoyu is still smashing his mouth.
As a result, an egg was stuffed into his wide mouth at once, and he almost choked.
I saw Bai Xiao say seriously, "I am allergic to eggs, you help me eat it, otherwise it will be a waste! ”
Xiaoyu was so anxious that she wanted to spit it out, why did this egg get into her mouth.
Egg allergy?
Fooled it!
She's not a three-year-old, who believes that?
Bai Xiao said with extreme disgust, "Don't you spit it out, how disgusting is it to spit it out of your mouth?"
Light rain pauses!
It's not spitting, it's not spitting either.
I really choked on it.
Bai Xiao hurriedly handed her the water, took two sips, and let her carry it smoothly.
The light rain finally swallowed.
I rolled my eyes.
"You...... Doctor Bai, you are really good! I am also allergic to eggs, and I am also allergic to sweet potatoes!"
Xiaoyu jumped to his feet, his own father told him to take good care of Dr. Bai and Dr. Zhang, he had already taken care of people in the river, and now he took care of eggs in his stomach, after going back, how to explain to his father.
The little girl was in a hurry.
"Don't jump your feet, the eggs are already in your stomach anyway, it's hard for you to vomit out! Hurry up and eat, eat, after eating, we have to hurry up and see if we can see a few patients." ”
Bai Xiao didn't care, and continued to eat her sweet potatoes, this thing, eating too much will cause stomach acid, and I don't know why the village here is still at the beginning of the scale of package production to households, people's living standards are really not as good as their original Liupan Village did not have a package production to the level of households.
This poor mountain and bad water environment is one thing, but there is always a favorable time and place that can be used.
The village chief waited for them to eat almost before coming in, a forty-year-old man, the village chief himself said, they are all surnamed Ji here, the village chief is called Jixiang, if the village chief Jixiang doesn't say it, it is estimated that Bai Xiao and they will never guess that he is only in his forties.
Because it looks like the head of Jixiang Village is bent at the waist, full of white hair, with deep furrows on his face, and a dark face, which doesn't look like what a man in the prime of life should be.
They understand that whether it is a village or a family, the burden makes this man prematurely decay.
Out of respect for them, the village chief had a long conversation with them.
At this time, Bai Xiao knew that the village was poor, on the one hand, the land was barren, the land was less and there were more people, before there was no family planning in these years, there were many children in every family, and there was no food at home, why did they give birth to so much?
Just because every family will have crippled children, in order for these children to be taken care of in the future, they can only give birth, hoping to give birth to a child with sound limbs and flexible minds to take care of these sick brothers and sisters, otherwise the parents will go, and these people really have no choice but to wait for death.
So the more you are born, the more you are born, the poorer you are.
In addition, they have rugged mountains here, and there are no roads at all, even if some thoughtful people want to breed and plant, on the one hand, they have no technology, and on the other hand, they can't sell it at all.
The mountains are high and the rivers are long, and the road is far away, where to sell.
The peddlers outside the house are not willing to spend that effort to run to this mountain, not to mention the effort! They can't make much money.
So the village is poor and white.
Every poor family has to be used as pants.
Many people have a pair of pants for several people, and whoever goes out wears it.
If there is a guest in the house, it will be embarrassing, and you have to hide under the quilt.
The problem is that not everyone can have a quilt.
They don't produce cotton here, and they can't afford cotton because they have money and tickets.
Many people's quilts are filled with reeds and straw, which is simply too poor.
Bai Xiao was also dumbfounded, she thought that her hometown was poor, because of geographical reasons, their village was not a rich village, but compared to here, it was simply heaven.
Bai Xiao asked the village chief, "Why don't you take the villagers down the mountain, at least there is a way to live?"
She didn't understand, what were these villagers doing guarding this mountain?
The village chief shook his head, "You don't understand, this is an industry left by our ancestors for generations, and we can't leave it in our hands! Besides, even if you move down, where will you move to? What do you live on? The mountain has long been a village, and other people's land can't be given to you for no reason, don't farm? They don't have other skills, and the most educated person in their village is the village chief, who graduated from the fourth grade of primary school, and many other people don't even know a single big character.
If we move down the mountain, we will starve to death! Therefore, it is better to die than to live, we will at least make some noise on the mountain, and no one will die of hunger!"
What the village chief didn't say was that no one had starved to death in the past two years, and people had starved to death in the village every year before, and for them, it was a good thing to be fed, and they really didn't pursue anything else.
Moving down the mountain?
How many of these people have dementia cerebral palsy and polio in this village, what do these people live on when they go down the mountain?
Thinking of this, the man in his forties really burst into tears.
He is the head of the village, but he can't do anything about the people of this village.
Bai Xiao and Dr. Zhang were also speechless.
This is the common problem in all rural areas, the poorer you are, the poorer you are, the poorer you are.
In addition, the transportation is inconvenient, even if the people here want to get rich, I am afraid it will be even more difficult.
The village chief of Jixiang seemed to feel comfortable when he said this call, and the honest man seemed to be a little embarrassed on his face, after all, he told strangers about all the difficulties and uneasiness in their village, as if he was asking for help from others.
"Doctor Zhang, Doctor Bai, I beg you to see the people in our village, I don't know if it's because of the water and soil or what's going on in the past two days, there are a lot of sick people in every household in the village, if you don't come, we have to go to the town to invite Dean Lu to come."
A large number of people in the village have fallen ill. ”
As soon as these words came out, Bai Xiao and Dr. Zhang were also frightened.
They were sitting there eating and drinking with peace of mind just now, because they felt that the village was only a headache and brain fever at most, and it was impossible for there to be so many patients, but now when they heard what the village chief said, there were not a few sick patients in the village.
