It may not be very suitable to be used in other places, but it is not an exaggeration to use it in this village called Hejiawa.

At first glance, the houses in the village are almost all adobe houses, except for seven or eight houses, and almost half of the remaining adobe houses are uninhabited, and almost all of these uninhabited houses are half-standing and half-collapsed. The other adobe houses looked better because they were occupied.

But standing in the middle of the village and looking at the houses in the surrounding villages, there are a mixture of manned adobe houses and uninhabited collapsed adobe houses, which is Xiao Ting's first impression of this village.

It's no wonder that Xiao Ting gave the village a desolate description.

seemed to notice that Xiao Ting's gaze at the collapsed houses was a little strange, so he looked at Xiao Ting and said: "Some of these houses are abandoned because the whole family has gone out to work, and the old house at home is unattended, and some families have moved out of this village and moved to the town, and it is better to do a small business or something." ”

"Well, I just think that in this village, these houses are probably abandoned forever, and no one will come here to tear down and rebuild new houses on the original site of these houses, and maybe in this village with the death of the old people, the children will also leave with the parents, so there will be fewer and fewer people in this village in the future. ”

"You're right, it's all those that don't worry about us!" Xiao Muqing also knew what Xiao Ting meant, but think about it, if one day there is no one in this village, maybe this village will be deserted, but the young people who go out in the village will not be as good as being in the village!

"Hey~!" sighed, Xiao Ting nodded, and saw that on the village road on his right, the subordinate sent by Xiao Muqing and six or seven old people who looked not young walked out.

The current old man, with a slightly hunched back, was still neat in a black tunic with a big hat and a pair of army-green cotton shoes on his feet.

Suddenly, Xiao Ting seemed to hear the laughter and shouts of several children, Xiao Ting unconsciously turned his head to look at the place where a few cars were parked behind him, and at the back of the car behind the last Jinbei bread, Xiao Ting saw a few children who looked like they were only five or six years old or seven or eight years old, all wearing a gray little padded jacket, and their ruddy little faces were still carrying the underworld。

Xiao Ting is a person who likes children very much, and when he saw these little radish heads with clear and bright eyes, he couldn't help but want to show favor to the little ones, but looking at the old people who had already walked towards him, Xiao Ting still didn't walk towards a few little guys.

Instead, he called the female subordinate behind him who came with Xiao Muqing and asked them to dismantle some snacks they bought in the county and distribute them to the children. Then he looked at the village chief who had walked in front of him.

"Boss, this is He Laoga, the village chief of He Jiawa!" The subordinate who walked to his side with a group of old people took the lead in introducing Xiao Ting and the village chief, and after introducing the village chief to Xiao Ting, he turned his head to look at He Village Chief and introduced: "This is our boss, and it is also the supreme leader of our assistance this time!" Mr. Xiao Tingxiao. ”

"Mr. Xiao, hello!" He Laoga's Mandarin is mixed with a very thick dialect, these five words are quite simple, Xiao Ting understands it, it is estimated that if this He Village Chief speaks a little longer, Xiao Ting feels that he can't understand it!

"Hello! Village Chief He!" Xiao Ting also smiled and reached out to shake with Village Chief He, this Village Chief He's hands were extremely rough, except for the calluses on his hands, almost all of them were cracked with skin, Xiao Ting held this hand, and he could almost know how heavy their work in the countryside was.

Village Chief He was very surprised, he didn't expect Xiao Ting, a city man who knew at a glance that he was high, could be so approachable, and he reached out to shake hands with him.

"Don't be nervous! We're here to do something for you! You're too closed here, and you're too backward!"

"We also understand what you said, but these are not conditions for improvement!" This sentence was a little longer, and Xiao Ting had a little trouble listening to it, but fortunately, with Xiao Muqing by his side, Xiao Muqing knew that Xiao Ting didn't seem to understand, so he specially 'translated' Xiao Ting in his ear.

"It's okay! aren't we here to help you!" Xiao Ting finished listening to Xiao Muqing's translation, smiled at the village chief, and then said.

"Uh......" The village chief wanted to say something and stopped, as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it.

After Xiao Ting noticed the expression of the village chief, he said again: "If you have anything you want to say, just say it!"

"What's nothing, what are you trying to do today?" The village chief actually wanted to ask Xiao Ting if they were liars or something, but he was not a fool, so he directly said how embarrassing it was, so he turned around and said.

"Let's come today~, just to send you a batch of New Year's materials, some flour and rice, edible oil and the like, and some clothes, more children, less adults!" Xiao Ting didn't bother to delve into what the village chief wanted to say, and directly opened his mouth to confess his purpose this time.

"We don't have the money to buy it!" said the village chief, grimaced.

Xiao Muqing saw the village chief's reaction, and glanced at Xiao Ting, who was looking at her, and then had to smile bitterly and said: "We didn't say that we would collect your money, we just gave it to you for free, check the number of households in the village, there are two bags of flour, one bag of rice, and two barrels of cooking oil." ”

"What about this good thing?" the village chief still didn't believe it.

Xiao Muqing felt that her brain was about to explode, when she came here to investigate a few days ago, she told the village chief, but he still believed it at the time, but now he doesn't believe it anymore, which makes her feel a little headache.

"Really! Can I still deceive you about anything! Village Chief He, if you go and call someone to move things, you can get it! Move things home, it's yours, what else do you not believe!" Xiao Muqing was really speechless for this village chief, and her speech was much dryer!
