Several people who were joking were interrupted by the sound and looked at the door in unison. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The door was entered, a woman in her early fifties, dressed in patched clothes, worn, but cleanly washed. She has a blue headscarf wrapped around her head, which is similar to the image of a fellow countryman in the Anti-Japanese War film.

The woman's name is Zhou Changju, and she lives in the outskirts of the village, although it is a village, but it is separated from Li Hanlin's house by three mountains. So Li Hanlin didn't recognize her.

"Sister-in-law Chrysanthemum, you came all the way here, isn't there something urgent?" Jiang Xiuqin, as the village women's director, naturally knew Zhou Changju.

Zhou Changju didn't expect Jiang Xiuqin to be here, and was a little surprised, "Hey, Director Jiang is also here, it's not a big deal." I just wanted Dr. Li to do me a favor. ”

Zhou Changju said hello to Jiang Xiuqin, but his eyes scanned the room.

The two families are too far apart, and Li Hanlin has been away from home for several years, not to mention that Li Hanlin doesn't know Zhou Changju, and even Zhou Changju doesn't know Li Hanlin.

So when he looked at it, he was actually looking for Li Hanlin.

"This lady, do you have a patient at home? Or are there herbs sent in to sell? Li Hanlin took the initiative to stand up and greeted Zhou Changju.

The other party named him and wanted to find him, there must be something serious, he thought about it carefully, and it seemed that the two things of seeing a doctor or purchasing herbs could have something to do with Zhou Changju.

After Zhou Changju confirmed Li Hanlin's identity, he shook his head, "Doctor Li, it's neither." ”

This made Li Hanlin wonder, and he was suddenly confused, "Then who are you?" ”

As soon as Li Hanlin finished speaking, Zhou Changju suddenly took a step forward and knelt in front of Li Hanlin, "Doctor Li, you can do well, give me a way to live!" ”

Her move was too sudden, not only Li Hanlin was stunned, but even the others were stunned and didn't react.

This made Li Hanlin's heart sink, and the meaning of what Zhou Changju said was too obvious, as if she had done something to make her have no way to live.

"Li Hanlin, what did you do to make the eldest lady come to the door." Shen Mengtian was an anxious person, and he was angry at the first time and questioned Li Hanlin.

"I don't know what's going on." Li Hanlin shrugged innocently, bent down to support Zhou Changju, "Auntie, if you have a request, just mention it, get up first." ”

Being kneeled down by an elder, Li Hanlin felt very unnatural, and quickly pulled Zhou Changju up, but the latter was unmoved, and said with a pleading face: "You promise me first, if you don't agree, I will kneel here and not get up." ”

"Aren't you breaking my life, get up and talk first, I'll listen to the specific things and then make a decision." Li Hanlin increased his strength, and while comforting, he helped Zhou Changju up.

Zhou Changju struggled again and again, pushing Li Hanlin's hand away, with a posture that if Li Hanlin didn't agree, she wouldn't get up.

Li Hanlin was afraid that he would hurt her too hard, so he could only let her get out of his support.

At this time, Jiang Xiuqin finally reacted, hurriedly ran to Zhou Changju's side, and said, "Sister-in-law Chrysanthemum, you can't help this." You are an elder, how can you kneel down with a junior. Get up quickly, and tell Hanlin if you have anything. I assure you that my nephew is absolutely kind-hearted and will meet your requests. ”

"Really?" Jiang Xiuqin, as the director of the Village Women's Federation, still has a certain reputation among women, so Zhou Changju listened to her words and immediately believed a little, and did not resist Jiang Xiuqin to support her.

Jiang Xiuqin took the opportunity to help Zhou Changju up and said with a smile: "How can I deceive Sister-in-law Chrysanthemum!" Right, Hanlin, you may agree to your Aunt Zhou's request. ”

Now that Jiang Xiuqin has spoken, Li Hanlin can only stubbornly agree, find a stool for Zhou Changju and hand it to her, "Auntie, you have to say what the requirements are first, otherwise I don't know how to help you?" Do you think that's the reason? ”

After hearing this, Zhou Changju thought about it, as if what Li Hanlin said was very reasonable, so he dispelled the idea of kneeling and threatening, and said to Li Hanlin: "I won't tell you, I came here for the sake of our village's highway." ”

Li Hanlin nodded, "There is such a thing, and it can be finalized." If the progress is normal, it will be possible to get through in the spring of next year. ”

The news of the road construction had been spread two months ago, and it had been almost a month since the last official announcement of the last meeting in the town.

Li Hanlin didn't understand why Zhou Changju came over to mention this matter to him now.

Zhou Changju breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly changed his words, "Didn't you say on the radio yesterday that you would clear the obstacles on the highway and cut down all the trees along the road, and also said that those who are willing to contribute labor can have a subsidy of thirty yuan a day." I thought about it and saw if I could go to someone's house. ”

"That's right, the broadcast was reported by me personally, and it certainly doesn't bluff people. Auntie, is this going to sign up for my uncle, or for my brother? Li Hanlin finally figured out the purpose of Zhou Changju's coming here, nodded and asked rhetorically.

However, he couldn't figure it out, as long as the villagers in this township were willing to work, he would definitely not disagree, and Changju couldn't kneel down for him to ask him to agree this week.

Sure enough, it turned out that Li Hanlin didn't worry too much, Zhou Changju listened to Li Hanlin's question, his face was a little pale, and he hesitated for a moment before shaking his head and replied: "No, I signed up for myself." ”

"You...... Myself? Li Hanlin was shocked for a moment, and some didn't believe it, "Why don't you let my uncle and brother come?" ”

Cutting down trees is a hard work, and it is also a bit dangerous, and even many young adults may not be able to do it, let alone an elderly woman like Zhou Changju.

Li Hanlin remembers that when he issued a radio notice the day before, he clearly said that only young and middle-aged people are needed, and even old farmers over 60 years old must decide whether they can sign up according to their actual physical condition.

This week, Changju said that he wanted to come by himself, which really made him embarrassed.

"Auntie, I'm afraid you can't do that kind of heavy work with your body." Li Hanlin was a little embarrassed, but he had to politely refuse Zhou Changju.

When he talked about this, he actually let Zhou Changju see his own situation clearly and take the initiative to give up his plan.

Who knows, Zhou Changju figured out what he meant, but instead of giving up, he pounced again and knelt down in front of Li Hanlin, "Doctor Li, please give me a way to live." ”

Li Hanlin didn't expect it, he didn't have time to stop her, and seeing that she even squeezed out tears, he was a little overwhelmed.

"Auntie, you are embarrassed for me. The road is too heavy to do without some strength. ”
