The four of them went to find the village chief, and in the village chief's office, a strong man in a suit in his forties greeted him with a smile: "The big policeman has gone to the countryside." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

A town policeman greeted him with a smile: "The incident I said on the phone, the people from the province came, and these two are." ”

The village chief smiled and shook hands, invited everyone to sit in the house, and went to prepare tea.

Zhang Wei said: "I really don't need to, we want to see the child first." ”

The village chief thought for a moment and said, "It's okay, I'll go with you." ”

The town policeman hurriedly said, "Don't bother you, just find someone to show us the way." ”

The village chief thought for a moment and said, "That's okay, I won't be polite with you, I just have something to do." Shouting Director Zhang, a man of the same age came out of the next room. The village chief made a brief introduction, saying that Director Zhang was familiar with the situation of that family, and it was better for him to take you there than for me to go.

Then it was time to set off, and the five of them squeezed into a car and walked towards the village. At the beginning, there was an asphalt road, followed by a short section of cement road, parking in front of a family, Director Zhang went in to ask, and came out after a while, followed by a woman in her fifties, saying something loudly.

Director Zhang didn't have the courage to say two sentences, and after getting in the car, he said, "Drive forward and stop at the foot of the mountain." ”

In front of it, several hills were connected together, and everywhere was white.

Zhang was afraid that on the train, he would see snow everywhere in the mountains and plains, and the snow in the countryside would not easily melt. Later, when I entered the town, the situation in the town was better. Out of the town, only the roads are free of snow, and the roadsides and mountains are white. Now when I entered the village, the snow was even heavier, and by the time I got out of the village and almost at the foot of the mountain, there was no road.

Director Zhang said to stop, and said that Xiaosheng was in this mountain.

Zhang Wei asked, "What is he doing in the mountains?"

"Collect firewood. The car stopped, and Director Zhang took the lead to get out of the car: "Are you going with me?"

The town policeman opened a cigarette, took out two boxes and got out of the car, stuffed them to Director Zhang, and asked, "In which direction?"

Director Zhang picked up a box, opened a box of cigarettes, let it go around and lit it, and said, "His aunt said that it was in this piece." ”

Zhang was afraid to look down at the footprints, the snow was white, the footprints were also white, and in some places he stepped on very solidly, so he looked up and said, "Follow the footprints." Take out your mobile phone and look at the signal: "If there is a signal, call if you find it." "Let's go up the hill first.

Director Zhang looked at his feet and hurriedly stopped: "Don't you want your feet?

Zhang was afraid to look at his shoes, stepped on his feet and said, "Sneakers, it's okay." ”

Director Zhang said, "Okay, let's go." A group of five people began to climb the mountain.

Coming out to collect firewood in the middle of winter is simply a story of suffering in the old society. Zhang was afraid to walk up for a while, and suddenly asked: "Xiaoshengjia is very poor?"

Director Zhang said: "It's okay, a son and a daughter are all working in the city, and the daughter has a house in the city, and now she is a city person." He paused to explain: "It's not my aunt." ”

Zhang was afraid and continued to enter the mountain.

After walking for more than half an hour and not finding it, Director Zhang said: "He shouldn't be here, and it is impossible to go so far to collect firewood." ”

Half an hour of mountain road, still snowy...... Zhang was afraid to look back: "It doesn't seem to be far." ”

Director Zhang said: "We are adults, and Xiaosheng is only eight years old. Look to the right: "Go here." ”

The farther you go, the fewer footprints on the snow, mostly the paw prints of pheasants or birds. Just when Director Zhang said: "If you can't find it, you won't look for it, anyway, he wants to go home, let's go back and wait." ”

Zhang was afraid that he had just said good, and when he saw a figure in front of him, he asked Director Zhang, "Is that Xiaosheng?"

Director Zhang took a closer look and shouted, "Xiaosheng." ”

It's Xiao Sheng, wearing a very old big cotton jacket, and tying some branches with a thin rope behind his back. Loudly answered, "Huh." He quickened his pace and walked over and looked at everyone puzzled: "Who are you?"

Director Zhang said, "You don't know me anymore? ”

Xiao Sheng hesitated and said Uncle Zhang is good.

Zhang was afraid to come over and speak: "I'll help you carry it." ”

Xiao Sheng was wearing woolen gloves and had a few holes, grabbed the rope and didn't let go, and didn't speak.

Director Zhang said, "How can I still rob you of firewood?"

Xiao Sheng hesitated and said, "I can carry it." ”

Zhang was afraid to ignore what he said, so he took the firewood in his hand, but it was not too heavy, and it was only ten catties when it was full, but it was inconvenient to take it.

Director Zhang asked, "Pick up firewood, why do you run so far?"

Xiaosheng said: "I saw a rabbit, but I didn't catch it." ”

Director Zhang smiled: "You are a rabbit." Then he said, "Let's go, you don't need to collect firewood in the future, and you can go to the province to live in a big house." ”

Xiao Sheng didn't understand. Director Zhang didn't say much, took everyone out of the mountain, and took the firewood from Zhang Wei's hand: "I'll go over, you get in the car." ”

Zhang Wei said: "I'll go over, you take the car." ”

"What's the matter, you can squeeze it. Said the driving policeman.

Put the firewood in the trunk, everyone squeezed into the car, and returned to Aunt Xiaosheng's house.

Hearing that she was going to pick up Xiaosheng, her aunt welcomed it very much: "Things like this should be solved by the government, we are ordinary people, it's not easy to make some money, how can we have spare energy to support others?"

The aunt agreed. Director Zhang asked Xiaosheng again: "Go to the city to live in a heated house, have a big TV to watch, don't need to pick up firewood, you can sleep in a bed, there are many friends, do you want to go?"

Xiao Sheng looked at his aunt and focused on her size.

The aunt hurriedly packed up her things, and after a while she brought an old travel bag over, Zhang was afraid to open it and take a look, took out her clothes and shoes, and said to Xiaosheng: "Don't want these, is it okay to go to the city and buy new ones?"

Xiao Sheng picked up the suit of clothes and said, "This is new." ”

It's a new dress, and Xiaosheng has never been willing to wear it. Zhang Wei said: "Take this, is there anything else?"

Except for this new set of clothes, there is a dictionary, two books, a toy car, a few little soldiers, and nothing else.

Zhang was afraid to say that he would set off and take Xiaosheng to the car.

Two policemen in the town said to Xiaosheng: "See, we are policemen, we won't lie to you, you will have a good life in the future." ”

Xiao Sheng still believed in the police, and followed him into the car and went back to the village.

When he parked, the town police asked Zhang when he was going back to the city, and whether he would leave now or tomorrow.

This sentence also means to ask if tonight's dinner has been settled, and whether what you say counts.

Zhang was afraid and said: "It must be tomorrow, and I have to trouble you to give Xiaosheng an identity certificate." ”

The policeman smiled and said, "Just find the village chief." ”

Zhang Wei said: "It must be to trouble the village chief." He said to Director Zhang: "I've worked hard today, I don't know if I'm free at night, give me a thin noodle, I want to set up a table of thank you wine in the town, thank you for helping so much." ”

Director Zhang said that it should be done, no need to thank it, and there is no need to put wine or anything.

Zhang Wei said: "Wine must be drunk, you are tired to help please the village chief." ”

There are certainly no good restaurants in the village, but whenever there is a distinguished guest, he has to go to the town to set up wine, and it is not far anyway. At the invitation of Zhang Wei, the village chief agreed to go, and by the way, he gave Xiaosheng an identity certificate.

said goodbye to the village chief and Director Zhang, and hurried back to the town. Zhang was afraid that he wanted to have an extra layer of insurance, so he asked the town police station to also give a certificate. When you have time later, you can come back to apply for an ID card.

Talk to the director for a while and find a hotel to rest.

The sheets were very white, and Xiao Sheng stood in the middle of the room with his bag and looked at the sheets in a daze.

Zhang was afraid to think about it, endured the feeling of sleepiness, and bathed Xiaosheng first. Wash inside and out, tuck into a quilt and sleep. Zhang was afraid to go out and buy him clothes.

New backpacks, new down jackets, new shoes, new hats, new gloves, clothes and pants, not to mention, buy a new wallet.

On the way back to the hostel, I wanted to sleep, but as soon as I entered the house, I found Xiao Sheng sitting on a chair wearing an old cotton coat.

Zhang was afraid to ask, "Why don't you sleep?"

"Not sleepy. Xiao Sheng was a little scared.

Zhang is afraid and said: "My name is Zhang Wei, I am afraid, I am afraid, from today on, I am your brother, you are my brother, I will raise you, as long as you are obedient, I will raise you until you grow up, okay?"

Xiao Sheng said yes.

Zhang was afraid and said: "Take off your clothes, don't want it, I bought you a new one." ”

He came back with a big bag and a small bag, and Xiao Sheng hesitated and asked, "Take it off?"

"Take it off. Zhang was afraid to say.

Xiao Sheng took off all the clothes that he had just put on for a short time, and with the help of Zhang Wei, he changed them into new equipment from head to toe.

Xiao Sheng was very happy, the corners of his mouth were a smile that he couldn't help but smile, standing in front of the mirror again and again, touching his clothes and pants again and again.

Zhang was afraid to put the underwear, socks, autumn clothes and autumn pants he bought more into his backpack, and said to Xiaosheng: "This bag is also yours, pack your things in, and you don't want the old ones." ”

Xiaosheng said yes, took things out of the travel bag, chose and chosen, but he was still reluctant to throw them away, and put all the things he brought out from home into his backpack.

Zhang was afraid to put the old clothes he had changed into his old travel bag, threw them at the door and said, "Don't want these, from now on, you will be a brand new you." ”

Xiao Sheng was a little thin and dark, with frostbite on his hands and feet, several frozen cuts on his hands, and scratches. The physiognomy is also average. If you want to grow as white and tender as Jin Cancan, it will take at least two years.

After cleaning it all up, Zhang was afraid to say, "You watch TV." ”

Xiaosheng sat in front of the TV and watched it carefully and meticulously, no matter what program he was playing.

Just by watching TV, you know how bad his life was before. Zhang was afraid to take the remote control and told him to press the plus or minus sign to change the channel and go to bed by himself.

I slept in a fit until police officer Wang knocked on the door, and Xiaosheng went to open the door.

Seeing the new Xiaosheng, Police Officer Wang was stunned for a moment before entering the door, and then took a moment to wake up Zhang Wei: "It's half past five, the village chief and Director Zhang have arrived." ”

Zhang was afraid and said, "Then we have to hurry." "Then he said that you go first, you go to entertain the guests, and I will wash my face.

Police Officer Wang said yes and asked, "What kind of wine?"

Zhang Wei said: "What kind of wine is the most expensive in the restaurant." ”

Police Officer Wang said okay, and said you hurry up and go to the hotel to greet the guests.

Zhang was afraid to quickly wash his face and get dressed, and then take Xiaosheng out. But Xiaosheng was carrying a big bag and refused to put it down. Zhang was afraid that he couldn't lose it, and Xiaosheng didn't do it.

Zhang Wei smiled: "I'll help you get it." "I took my backpack from Xiaosheng and my own computer bag, and went out to the hotel.

Take out your wallet on the way: "This is for you, you can put money in it later." As he spoke, he put two red tickets inside, and a small handful of change, closed it and put it in Xiaosheng's hand: "The money in it is also yours, you can buy snacks to eat and soda to drink." (To be continued.) )
