Su Mei's tone was very calm, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.

But Bai Junyi seemed to see from Su Mei's tone and her description a girl in her prime, with her own dreams, smiling unscrupulously in the bright sun.

For the sake of teaching, she fell out with her family and broke up with her boyfriend. When I looked at her standing in front of me with her schoolbag on her back, I knew that she had made a decision and that no one else could change it. ”

"And what about you, why are you here?" Bai Junyi asked.

"At that time, Tang Ning and I didn't know each other, she was my only friend. You wouldn't think of it, but I used to graduate from a normal university. Su Mei seemed to expect that Bai Junyi would definitely have a surprised expression on her face after hearing her words, and said with a chuckle.

The smile on Su Mei's face gradually disappeared, and then she said in a low voice: " She's the kindest person I've ever met, almost never thinking about herself, but she doesn't make people feel very pretentious and troublesome, her kind of kindness, is really able to impress other people, you also know my character, in fact, I'm not a very gregarious person, so I was always alone during that time, but she always took the trouble to be friends with me, so we became very good friends, and because of this, I came here with her. ”

"After coming here, as you see now, it's really poor and poor, I've heard that some really poor places will wear a dress and a pair of pants as a family, I think it's a fantasy, but when I come here, I know that these are true, absolutely not an exaggeration...... In fact, what you see has been improved, and the previous place was unbelievably poor, and there are still such places in the world. ”

"Frankly, I didn't really want to stay here, but she didn't care at all, instead she told me how bright and pure the eyes of the children here are, and they are not at all like the children you see outside. So that's it, she and I stayed to be a volunteer teacher, speaking of which, what kind of volunteer teaching, in fact, we ran here by ourselves, even the local education department didn't know about us, let alone the salary or something, we two girls cleaned out the classroom together, cleaned up the playground, and bought a national flag, raised the flag every day, bought textbooks, and went to persuade them to let their children come to study, it was really hard at first, and no one wanted to let their children come here to waste time. ”

"But after a long time, her kindness and innocence really touched many people, more and more people are willing to send their children here, but the adults are busy farming or doing some other things, such as hunting in the mountains, if the children are not at home, there is no food, so we sorted out the dormitory, and we have to take care of the children's diet and daily life every day, you can hardly imagine that we two girls have to go out every month to buy rice, and then carry those rice over the mountains and come back here. ”

"In the beginning, we did all this on our own, but gradually, some of the children started to help us...... They cook better meals than we do, the children of the poor are in charge of the house early, cooking is a very simple thing for them, they will consciously be on duty every day, cook together, do laundry, and their self-care ability amazes us. Gradually, their parents helped us carry rice together, but in addition, we had to go to the nearby town every month to buy exercise books and textbooks, which were very thick and heavy. ”

"I still remember one time, it was a winter, it was very snowy, she fell on the way back, she was already very weak, she actually had no strength to get up, she just staggered and struggled in the mountains for two days, until we found her, in fact, she was already hanging by a thread. That time she was hospitalized, it was the longest time she had been away from her children, I also met her parents and her boyfriend who had broken up, the whole world was asking her to go back to her own home, in fact, the conditions were quite good, not necessarily rich but certainly able to let her live a life without worry, but she still refused, her father was angry and wanted to cut off the father-daughter relationship with her, she cried and begged her father to let her come back, what they said that time I don't know, but I know that after that, I never saw her parents again. ”

"She died because of an accident, the classroom was in disrepair and was already crumbling, but the typhoon came so violently that the house collapsed, and the situation was very urgent at that time, and we had no way to escape by the time we evacuated the children, and at the last moment, she pushed me out, and she never got up again with the fallen classroom. She was gone, and on the day of the funeral, the whole village, men, women, and children came, and brought her here, and according to her last wishes, she was buried here, never to leave the village and her children. ”

When Su Mei finished speaking, she couldn't cry, Bai Junyi's expression was serious, he hugged Su Mei, patted Su Mei's back and whispered, "If you don't want to say it again, don't say it." ”

Su Mei grabbed Bai Junyi's collar and cried heartbreakingly.

Su Mei's cry spread far away in this silent night, which made people can't help but feel sad, the night wind shouted, it should have been a very bleak and gloomy scene, but Bai Junyi looked at the tombstone in front of him, but seemed to see a girl who had never met but was very beautiful, and was standing not far away, looking at Su Mei and smiling.

This girl is very beautiful, I can't see her face, but she is very beautiful, more beautiful than any woman, she stands there, her whole body exudes a faint hazy halo, she is so shallow smile, as if it is a lotus flower peeking out of the water in the summer that is swayed by the cool breeze, delicate and shallow.

What is Kindness?

Bai Junyi felt that he had never been a kind person, he once thought that he was far, far away from these two words, but at this time, he felt that he was so close to kindness for the first time.

Kindness, kindness is not to do anything earth-shattering, nor does it have to save all mankind and the whole world from the end of the world, kindness, itself is a very small and simple word, even if it is just an occasional good thought, an occasional good deed, it can always make people's hearts warm.

This teacher surnamed Liu, a girl who is still in her youth, she should have a very good future of her own, a stable job, a husband who loves her, and one or more lovely children, she can fall in love and marry like other girls in this world, and live a good life, but she gave up, gave up everything that should belong to her, came here with nothing, and then left without anything, but she stayed here forever in another way.

Bai Junyi suddenly understood why the people in this village respected Su Mei so much, and why Su Mei came here every year on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

It's to see her, it's also to see the children, and it's to commemorate this feeling.

This kind of pure kindness can really move anyone, but there is still a little bit of conscience that has not been extinguished in human nature.

Bai Junyi could feel Su Mei's sadness and sadness, the body in his arms was constantly trembling, and the whimpering cry sounded a little embarrassed, but it was more sad, the clothes on the neckline were grabbed tightly, and it hurt, but Bai Junyi was motionless, the night wind was very cold, the wind in the col was even stronger, and in this cemetery, it was even more cold.

Bai Junyi could only try to hug Su Mei, let this constantly trembling body settle down in his arms, and warm Su Mei with his body temperature.

And at this time, not far away from Zhang Jianguo's side of the mountain bag, there was a sudden burst of singing.

"You ask me, where did you come from?"

"I said, I'm from the mountains!"

"In the mountains, there are 100,000 mountains!"

"You ask me, where are you going?"

"I said, I'll go to the mountains!"

"In the mountains, there is my family!"

The man's rough voice is not pleasant, but in this mountain, there is a vast momentum in the face of the harsh mountain wind, this hoarse to almost hoarse singing, as if it is a Xintianyou on the high slope of the loess in northern Shaanxi, as if it is a bamboo breaking out of the ground in this mountain, with a strong force that makes people tremble, and exalts a sense of life power.

Zhang Jianguo's back, almost integrated with the mountain bag on the mountain bag, his figure is very broad, very solid, he raised his head, facing the bright moon in the sky, singing this unknown ballad one by one, his voice spread out in the night sky, echoing in this mountain col, with a shocking power, there is an indescribable beauty, this is a soul shock.

In this song, in this dark night sky, in this night of family reunion across the country, Bai Junyi saw a girl slowly coming from the darkness, she smiled, chuckled, with a hazy halo on her body, she rose into the air, and then higher and higher, higher and higher, until she tried to raise her head and tilt her neck to see clearly, and then completely disappeared into the night sky, next to the moon, there seemed to be a face, slowly emerging, she looked at this small village, looked at Su Mei in her arms, still laughing, the smile was very simple, very pure, very clean, and very kind, and finally, everything disappeared in the songThe silence returned to silence.
