Huo Yanqi had already greeted these old ladies with a smile and in local dialect.

The old ladies all shouted and screamed, causing several old men who were sleeping next to them to sit up and come over with dry tobacco pouches, surrounding Huo Yanqi and talking non-stop!

It seems that this girl is very popular in the village, these people are her elders, this one hugs her, and the other pulls her, so that the little girl doesn't say a few words and lies in the arms of the old people and wipes her tears.

Someone called for more people, and a group of children also ran out, Ye Xiaoxuan hurriedly asked Lao Jiu with broken eyebrows to open the backpack on his body, which was full of gifts bought in the city when he came, candy and cigarettes.

Ye Xiaoxuan distributed candy to the old ladies and children one by one, opened the cigarettes, and distributed them to the old men to smoke.

Everyone happily took it, and they all cast their eyes on Ye Xiaoxuan. An old lady said a few words to Huo Yanqi in local dialect, and Huo Yanqi nodded with a red face.

A group of children cheered and jumped up, and together with the old man and the old lady, each took a piece of candy and peeled it off and put it in their mouths, but threw the candy paper on Ye Xiaoxuan's head, and they all laughed.

Bai Shaobo glared at the beads of his eyes and scolded: "Hey, I don't know what to do, you guys! My boss gave you candy and threw him away?"

Huo Yanqi stopped him with a red face, shook her head and said, "Don't talk nonsense! This is our rule here! Only when the married girl comes back with her aunt will she distribute candy, and if everyone is satisfied with the uncle, they will sprinkle the candy on his head with the skin of the candy..."

"Oh! no wonder Sister Yanqi asked us to buy these colorful candy wrappers, we had already prepared for this!" the fish screamed to the crowd, causing everyone to laugh.

Huo Yanqi's little face was almost oozing blood, and she lowered her head and said to everyone: "My brother and I grew up with the relief of the whole village since we were children. My parents died on the construction site when I was three years old, and my brother and I lived with my grandparents, and we had no labor, and we couldn't even grow food, and if it weren't for the help of the villagers, my brother and sister would have starved to death!

Ye Xiaoxuan gently hugged Huo Yanqi's slender waist and whispered to her, "Then what do you mean now, these parents of yours like me very much?"

Huo Yanqi twisted her waist, avoided his ghost claws, blushed and glanced at him coquettishly, and said, "Stinky beauty! To be honest, our folk customs here are not like those in the city, they are too casual for people to gossip!"

This Ye Xiaoxuan understands, after all, he also came from the countryside, and the poorer the place, the more the oldest folk customs are maintained, so he honestly stands aside and accepts the scrutiny of those old men and old ladies. (hua.advertisement)

Being stared at by a group of old people, Rao is Ye Xiaoxuan is thick-skinned enough and a little unbearable! Fortunately, Huo Yanqi also knew that everyone was tired of traveling, and she was in a hurry to go home to see her grandmother, so she said goodbye to everyone and walked to the west of the village.

A few children walked all the way ahead, as if they were leading the way for everyone, and of course, the biggest purpose was to get more candy.

Ye Xiaoxuan observed these children, although they were all dressed in the same tatters as other children, they all had one thing in common, that is, their eyes were more intelligent, and they didn't want to be as afraid and cowardly as other children.

This is very precious to children, and even affects their lives! As long as they can maintain this kind of wisdom, their future should be much better than those children who look honest but have a somewhat dull eyes!

I'm afraid, the poverty in the village will drain the wisdom of these children, and even if there are any talents, they will inevitably fall to the sunrise and make a day of rest, facing the loess with their backs to the sky!

"My brother came back last night!" Huo Yanqi said to Ye Xiaoxuan as she walked, "I came back with two people from the city, and those people are also in the back mountain, let's put the luggage home first, and then go to the back mountain!"

Soon came to the front of a bungalow, standing at the gate, everyone couldn't believe that this was Huo Yanqi's home!

Other homes also use plaster to fill gaps in the stones, and there are wooden beams on top of them. (hua.) But the houses in front of me are simply a pile of rubble, and it seems that as long as the wind is stronger, it can blow down the precarious stones and bury everything in the house under the rubble!

Ye Xiaoxuan finally understood why Huo Taiji was so ostentatious and arrogant at the beginning, desperately squeezing out the name of Qi Tian's four young people, and helped Qi Tian do a lot of things and earn a lot of money at a young age, all because he was already poor!

He was afraid of returning to this pile of rubble, afraid that others would know that he had come out of such a house, so he acted in Qi Tian very high-profile and very flamboyant, which was a fault of inferiority complex!

"Sister Yanqi!" The little shadow's eyes turned red, and she took Huo Yanqi's hand, wanting to comfort her a few words, but she didn't know where to speak. She has always thought that her life experience is pitiful, she has no father or mother, and she is lonely.

But now it seems that Huo Yanqi's life experience is better than her, and at the very least, she never worries about eating and drinking, and her living conditions have always been very good, but when Sister Yanqi was young, she even had to eat a steamed bun for someone else's charity!

Ye Xiaoxuan didn't say anything, wrapped his arms, hugged Huo Yanqi tightly in his arms, and generously stepped into the door that was not closed at all, and said to her with a smile: "Go, go home!"

Huo Yanqi also smiled, leaned on Ye Xiaoxuan's shoulder and walked forward, saying as she walked: "Don't worry, don't look at the house, it's sturdy, and it's warm in winter and cool in summer! Grandma, I'm back!"

A white-haired old lady walked out of a row of stone houses facing the gate, holding a yellowed porcelain bowl in her hand, standing tremblingly at the door of the house, looking at Huo Yanqi coming from the gate, she opened her mouth excitedly, shook her arm a few times, but did not speak!

Huo Yanqi rushed over with tears in her eyes, hugged the old lady, and called her loudly in the local dialect, the old lady also hugged her body tightly, and the porcelain bowl in her hand fell to the ground and shattered!

Everyone was also moved by this scene, even Bai Shaobo, who had always had a lot of things, did not speak, Ziqian and Yu'er cried and hugged each other, wiping the tears from their eyes with tissues.

Ye Xiaoxuan walked up to Huo Yanqi's side, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Don't go to the door, go in and talk about it!"

Huo Yanqi reacted at this time, hurriedly sent her arm, wiped the tears on her face and said a few words to her grandmother, and then turned her head and said to everyone: "I'm sorry everyone, I neglected everyone, let's go into the house!"

Everyone entered the house one after another, and suddenly it was dark, and they thought that they had entered the cave, and the light was so bad that they couldn't even see their five fingers, and after a long time, they gradually adapted to the surrounding light, looked at the surrounding environment, and couldn't help but feel a little sad.

A table, two chairs, and two large wooden boxes are all the furniture of this family, and on the right side of the table is a large earthen kang, on which are placed a bunch of colorful bedding and clothes that can no longer distinguish the original color, exuding a pungent musty smell.

There was no place to sit in the room, just two small benches, which were covered with oil, and a group of girls did not dare to sit, and they all leaned on the side of the relatively clean bed. Ye Dajun and Wuyan did not dislike it, and sat directly on the bench.

Huo Yanqi took a stack of porcelain bowls and put them on the table, and then poured boiling water from the two hot water kettles next to her that couldn't tell how many years they had been used, and handed the bowls to everyone, saying apologetically: "I don't have tea at home, so let's drink some hot water!"

Bai Shaobo raised his neck and took a sip, and before he could swallow the second sip, he opened his mouth and spit it out, baring his teeth and saying, "Why is this water so astringent! It's like drinking sand!"

Huo Yanqi said to him apologetically: "The well in the village is like this, this has been in town for a night, if it has just been called, you can burp your teeth when you drink it!"

Bai Shaobo looked at the dim liquid in the bowl, plucked up the courage for a long time, but still couldn't drink it anymore, took out the mineral water in his backpack, and said curtly: "I'll still drink my own!"

For this pampered second ancestor, it is not easy to come to this place, and everyone will not feel anything wrong with such a move, not to mention that everyone is not used to drinking such water, so they all took out their own mineral water.

Ye Xiaoxuan held the bowl and drank one sip after another, he didn't know how much water he drank from Daxian Lake, and he couldn't get used to drinking the water from this well!

Huo Yanqi looked at Ye Xiaoxuan with a shy look on her face, and said something in the old lady's ear.

The old lady looked Ye Xiaoxuan up and down, nodded incessantly, grinned toothlessly, and beckoned to him.

Huo Yanqi blushed and said, "Come here, my grandma wants to see you!" There was no light in the room, the light was very dark, and the old man's eyes were not good, so he couldn't see what Ye Xiaoxuan looked like.

Ye Xiaoxuan simply squatted beside the old lady, took her hand and put it on her face, and said with a smile: "Grandma, you can know what I look like by touching my face!"

Huo Yanqi said a few words in the old lady's ear shyly, and the old lady really touched Ye Xiaoxuan's face back and forth with her rough hands, and there were words in her mouth, especially the eyebrows and the bridge of the nose, the old lady touched it back and forth no less than five times, and finally let go of her hand with satisfaction, grabbed Huo Yanqi's little hand, and put it in Ye Xiaoxuan's hand!

Of course, Ye Xiaoxuan understood what the old lady meant, stood up and said to her: "Grandma, don't worry, I will take care of Yanqi! After two days, I will take you to Xianhu, and I will be your own grandson in the future, and I will provide for you in old age!"

Huo Yanqi translated Ye Xiaoxuan's words to the old lady, who smiled and waved her hand, babbling something to him. Huo Yanqi didn't follow at first, pouting and kept coquettish to her grandmother, and her grandmother touched her hand lovingly to persuade her, and finally let her agree.

After a while, Huo Yanqi wiped her tears and said to Ye Xiaoxuan: "My grandmother said that she is old, don't go to trouble us, let me take my brother away, there is still no way out to stay here! After my grandfather left, my grandmother lived here alone for five years, I don't know how to get here, her legs and feet have been inconvenient, and her eyes are not good..."

Ye Xiaoxuan patted her on the back and said, "Don't worry, my brother and I will take it away, and my grandmother will also take it away, my husband promised you, I will definitely do it..."

Lao Jiu, who had broken eyebrows, suddenly ran in from the courtyard and said to Ye Xiaoxuan: "Boss, I seem to have heard a gunshot behind me just now!"

Remember to read it: convenient for next time, or.
