On June 14, the eighth day of Chu Tianqi and others coming to Yanggu Village, from this day, they no longer experienced life for the time being, but started the research mode.

In fact, participating in labor in the past few days, eating and living in villagers' homes is not only a form of experiencing life, but also a form of research. It's just that now it has changed to another form: visiting and talking.

It was raining lightly today, and it was impossible to do farm work in the fields, and most of the villagers were resting at home, so Chu Tianqi and the three of them visited the villagers' homes. The three of them also divided labor, focusing on Chu Tianqi's inquiry, Pei Xiaojun making records, and Cao Yukun taking pictures, taking pictures of some scenes and characters, and also making some recordings. Of course, the premise of taking photos and recordings is to have the consent of the other party.

The two families who started to go were led by Shao Xu, and from the third one, Shao Xu left, saying that the village committee had something to do. Chu Tianqi and others understood that Director Shao wanted to create a more relaxed research environment for everyone, so they accepted the other party's good intentions. Anyway, the villagers also knew about the existence of a few people, and they appreciated the fact that the three of them went to the school to give love.

When he finished walking to the eight houses, the rain had just stopped, but the sky was still dark and dark, and the air was very watery, so Chu Tianqi went to knock on the courtyard door of the ninth house.

The courtyard door was a double door that was opposite, and Chu Tianqi knocked on it while shouting at the crack in the door: "Is there anyone?

"It's coming. With a reply, the sound of the door opening was heard, followed by footsteps.

The three of them looked at each other for a moment.

The footsteps were approaching, and after the courtyard door "rattled and rattled", a man appeared at the door. No wonder it sounded familiar, it turned out to be Shao Xu's voice.

"Director Shao, is this your home?" Cao Yukun asked casually.

"Yes, it's my home, is my house still used for it?" Shao Xu was still standing at the door, "We can also talk in the village committee." ”

Seeing that the other party had a different look, this aroused Chu Tianqi's curiosity even more: "It's all at the door, you have to go in and have a look." ”

"Okay. With that, Shao Xu took half a step back and vacated the middle position.

Chu Tianqi walked into the courtyard with three mermaids.

Shao Xu hurriedly closed the courtyard door, walked quickly to the front of everyone, and said while pushing the door of the house: "The house is dirty, and there is no ground to put your feet on." ”

With a "squeak", the door opened, and a foul smell came out.

"Uh, uh......" Cao Yukun immediately retched.

Pei Xiaojun quickly covered his nose and moved his throat a few times.

Chu Tianqi couldn't help but hold his breath.

In fact, as soon as the courtyard door was opened just now, everyone smelled the stench, but the rural courtyard could not avoid livestock manure, or the sour smell of pig food, or other strange smells. Now it suddenly smells like a stench, and it is inevitable that it will be difficult to adapt for a while, but now that the owner is around, everyone is inevitably embarrassed.

After a little hesitation, Chu Tianqi walked into the house first.

Pei Xiaojun took the right hand that covered his nose, and then came.

Cao Yukun's cheek muscles moved, and he walked in suddenly.

Shao Xu had a complicated expression on his face, shouted "wait", and walked quickly to the front.

"This house is my son, I'll go in first, don't scare everyone. With that, Shao Xu lifted the curtain and walked into the Westinghouse.

Suddenly, the concentration of the smell increased a lot, but they were already in it, and the three of them did not have a particularly uncomfortable reaction.

Chu Tianqi, Pei Xiaojun, and Cao Yukun walked into the West House one after another, and they were stunned when they saw the scene in front of them.

There was a naked adult man sitting on the West Inghouse Kang, wearing nothing. Seeing the crowd on the ground, the man bared his teeth, waved his arms, and jumped forward.

didn't expect the scene in front of them, nor did they expect the man's movements, everyone couldn't help but retreat backwards, and Cao Yukun went directly to the outhouse.

"Boom", "squeak", the sound of iron chains, and non-human voices sounded one after another, and it turned out that the man had a short iron chain locked on his two ankles, and the iron chain was fixed on the kang.

"Let's go out and talk. Shao Xu gestured.

Facing the scene in front of them and smelling the unpleasant smell, everyone did not insist, but obediently followed Shao Xu to the courtyard.

After closing the door of the house, Shao Xu came to everyone: "If the family is not like this, you come all the way to the village, I have to invite you to the house for a meal, but that's it, alas, ......"

"Director Shao, we didn't know this was the case, I'm really sorry. After a pause, Chu Tianqi asked again, "Why?"

"Alas. Sighing and shaking his head, Shao Xu said, "In the past, Yanggu Village had a larger population than it does now, and it was not so dilapidated. The Shao family is the eldest surname in the village, and my father was the village chief until he died. When my father was alive, he always said that he wanted to manage the village well and let the people live a good life, but until he died, he was not rich, and he handed over this task to me, and I was also promoted to the village director. When I was the village chief, I caught up with the good policies, and people were well fed and clothed, but they were still far from being rich.

If you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and we all understand this truth. Seventeen years ago, without any support, I mobilized the villagers to work day and night, and finally built a flat gravel road. But on the day the road was completed, my wife and I were busy outside, and my son was alone at home with a high fever. When we came home in the evening, my son was burned unconscious. hurriedly sent his son to the county hospital on a tricycle, but he was picked up and picked up, but he was completely stupid. In fact, he was not very bright when he was young, and he was not much better than Ergen, and there were several such children in the village, but that was not stupid after all.

I went to many big hospitals, but I didn't look good, and my wife died with her, leaving me alone. To be honest, if I didn't consider having a son tied up at that time, I would have followed my wife. Sadly, the road was repaired, but life did not change much, and the young people left the village, and the road gradually fell into disuse. My son eats everything, eats kang mats when he touches kang mats, pulls clothes and chews clothes, pulls and pees on everything. I really had no choice but to get him like this. ”

Seeing Shao Xu's sad expression, combined with what he had seen and heard just now, everyone didn't know what to say for a while.

"Director Shao, you have suffered...... A little heart. As he spoke, Chu Tianqi took out a few bills and handed them over.

"Director Shao, take it. Cao Yukun and Pei Xiaojun also took out the money.

Shao Xu pushed with both hands: "I won't ask for a point." I am very grateful that you can come to this poor place, eat and live with the villagers, feel the hardships of the villagers, and feel the hardships of the villagers. Now that I'm thinking about it, since I came to this world, there are people who enjoy happiness and people who suffer, and I should be the one who deserves to suffer. I don't care how my life is, my biggest hope is that the villagers can live a good life. ”

Hearing the other party's voice, but now he couldn't reply anything, Chu Tianqi just responded vaguely: "Yes, it will." ”

"Director Shao, since it's so hard here, have the villagers ever thought about moving out?" Cao Yukun asked.

"There are several people like Ergen in the village, and it is likely that there is a lack of a certain substance in the soil and water, or a certain substance is seriously exceeded, which is no longer suitable for settlement. Pei Xiaojun added.

Chu Tianqi nodded secretly, in fact, he had thought of these questions a long time ago, but it was still very happy for him to be raised by these two sons. When visiting the previous ones, the two often raised some very practical questions, indicating that the two have grown a lot in some aspects after experiencing life in the past few days.

Shao Xu was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "It's hard to leave the homeland! Besides, after these people move out, what can they do, and what can they do?"

……

When the sun was setting, Chu Tianqi and the three of them completed today's research task and walked through all the seventeen households in the Yangji Administrative Village.

In the process of chatting with the villagers, people inevitably expressed words that did not reach the meaning or had concerns, but they still talked about many situations, which need to be further screened and screened.

While walking towards Shao Wanfu's house, the three of them chatted:

Cao Yukun: "What the village director said is right, these more than ten people walked down, and sure enough, Shao Wanfu's family was the cleanest." ”

"As long as you have a lot of things, you are already clean, and the countryside is under such conditions, what else can you ask for. Speaking of this, Pei Xiaojun smiled "hehe", "Lao Cao, cleaner than Xu Fenglan's house?"

"Old Pei, are you this guy finished? Just now you talked about that woman, a widow's family, you provoked you?" Cao Yukun slapped Pei Xiaojun in the face, "Isn't it that people have to give us tea, and I paid three hundred yuan?"

"Give money, give money, why don't you grab someone's hand. Pei Xiaojun punched back and hid to the side.

"Lao Pei, you fucking fart, isn't that what people don't want, Lao Chu Fei will give it to you?" Cao Yukun said this, and the topic changed, "Don't bury me, I'm also a child* man, even if I am a man, I have to find someone who is similar." ”

Pei Xiaojun said "oh": "You are thinking about Teacher Hou." ”

Laughing, the three of them entered the familiar courtyard.

"I'm back. Shao Wanfu didn't say much, but he was sincere, "There is rice in the pot." I don't know when you'll come back, so we'll eat first. ”

"Thank you, Uncle Shao. As he spoke, Chu Tianqi took out a carton from his bag and handed it over, "Uncle Shao, give you a box." ”

"What is this, where did it come from?" Shao Wanfu did not answer, but asked by pointing to the cardboard box.

"Licorice tea. Chu Tianqi replied, "Xu Fenglan ......"

"Widow Xu? Shao Wanfu said and walked towards the main room.

Chu Tianqi paused, and then explained: "We paid her, not for nothing." ”

Shao Wanfu turned around: "You are outsiders, don't be exposed to the bad luck of Kefu women." With that, he put his hands behind his back and went into the house.

The three of them looked at each other and returned to the Westinghouse.

Thinking about what he saw and heard today, Chu Tianqi couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Concept, ah......"

Cao Yukun asked, "What do you mean?"

"It's not interesting. Hurry up and wash your face and finish eating. With that, Chu Tianqi washed it in the basin.
