Deng Tongcomb is a native of Xishan, not to mention that she knows everything about every grass and tree in Xishan, and she is probably clear about what fun places there are. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Whether it's historic sites or fun bars and clubs, there's nothing she's not familiar with.

But the place where Peng Jiayu brought her still surprised her.

"It's ...... Someone else's home? Deng Tongcomb looked surprised.

The pattern of Xishan City was also developed on the basis of the ancient city, but the modern city is not known to be many times larger than in ancient times. The outer city in ancient times can be regarded as the inner part of the present.

There is no obvious difference between the rich and the poor in the pattern of Xishan City, but in fact, these differences exist.

Most of the main residences of the wealthy are in the south of the city, where they form a series of villa areas. The eastern part of the city is dominated by government offices and schools, while the northern part of the city is a commercial district. In Xicheng, there are large areas of ordinary people's homes. The urban areas here are still in an undeveloped state, there are no high-rise buildings that are shoulder to shoulder, and people still live in small buildings built on their own.

Now that the living conditions are better, as long as people are diligent, they can earn money, and they can clean up their homes and make them beautiful. But being beautiful is only limited to the inside of the house. Urban areas that have not been uniformly planned are not always easy to look at and feel comfortable.

Peng Jiayu took Deng Tong to the west of the city, and it was an inconspicuous small street. The houses here look old, but there are not too many traces of history, imitating the style of the northern courtyard house, and the building age should be more than 100 years old.

The two girls walked through more than a dozen courtyard houses with similar appearances, and Peng Jiayu pointed to a gray-brown gate and said, "This is it." ”

"Orphans' homes?"

Seeing the words written on the wooden plaque on the lintel above the double gate, Deng Tongcomb was taken aback again, and guessed and asked, "It won't be an orphanage or something, right?" ”

Peng Jiayu stroked the messy hair on her forehead, revealing most of her face, "It's not a pure orphanage, but it's almost the same, there are some fatherless and motherless people living here." ”

Deng Tongcomb looked at Peng Jiayu's face in a daze, his small mouth couldn't close for a long time, and he was surprised to be able to swallow a big duck pear.

Is this still the girl who looks scruffy with her raunchy edges?

White. Pink skin, straight nose, and sparkling eyes behind thick lenses...... This is a beautiful face, delicate as if God has carefully painted a masterpiece.

As a girl with the same outstanding appearance, Deng Tongcomb can be sure that there is no trace of cosmetics on this face, and all the postures are pure and natural.

I don't know why, seeing such a face, Deng Tongcomb suddenly felt ashamed of himself. No wonder Peng Jiayu wants to dress herself up as a sloppy appearance, just such a face, it is said that a man sees it, even if a woman sees it, it is amazing.

Peng Jiayu took off the thick glasses on the bridge of her nose, completely pulled her messy hair to the back of her head and tied it into a ponytail at will, completely revealing her stunning face.

"I'm not nearsighted, the glasses are flat. The reason why I dressed up like this is mainly because I am afraid of trouble. Peng Jia Yu Yingying asked with a smile: "Have you eased up?" ”

Deng Tongcomb nodded in amazement.

"Then let's go inside." As Peng Jiayu spoke, she stepped forward and picked up the copper ring on the door and buckled it gently.

In about a minute, there was a sound of the door opening, and a woman with an ordinary face but a piercing gaze opened the door. Seeing Peng Jiayu and Deng Tongcomb, they didn't say a word, just waited for the two of them to enter the house by holding on to the door.

After the second daughter entered, she closed the door again, and then walked away without looking back, not saying a word, not even an expression in the whole process.

This made Deng Tongcomb feel strange, the woman was able to let Peng Jiayu in, so she naturally knew her. But since they know each other, why don't they even say hello?

It's weird.

Peng Jiayu obviously saw Deng Tongcomb's doubts, but didn't explain anything, just smiled and led the way in front.

This is a three-hall courtyard, and you can see the layout of the entire courtyard by bypassing the shadow wall. The small courtyard occupies a small area, but the various layouts are exquisite. It has the atmosphere of northern architecture, but it is not the grace of a small courtyard in the south. From the grass and trees to the mural lanterns, they are all carefully designed and laid out. But I can't see too many traces of artificiality, and it's natural to the extreme.

Walking in such an exquisite yard is like looking at a perfect work of art.

Deng Tongcomb was shocked, such a perfect yard turned out to be just an orphanage, isn't it a bit tyrannical?

Soon the second daughter passed through the first courtyard and came to the second entrance, and the number of people she saw gradually increased.

There are men and women, adults and children. It looks like a harmonious paradise.

Deng Tongcomb carefully observed for a while, only to find that there was something different. But where is the difference, there is a feeling of incomprehension for a while.

How so...... She felt that the people in this courtyard were less angry, not the kind of anger that distinguished them from the living and the dead. Just like those children, children in their teens should be very noisy, as long as there are children, there will be no lack of joy.

But the children I saw in this yard, whether walking, standing, or talking to each other, were too "calm". As if their young bodies were inhabited by souls that did not correspond to their actual age, they were not just children in the sense of the word, but rejuvenated adults.

For example, the women I saw again one after another, their expressions were too indifferent, even if they greeted them, they just nodded their heads very indifferently, even if they smiled, they could always feel a trace of coldness.

It wasn't until they came to the courtyard of the third entrance that the lost "life" gradually returned to the people.

Seven or eight children of five or six years old were playing together, and an old lady in her sixties teased everyone like a kindergarten teacher, and the scene was warm and cheerful.

Seeing the two girls come in, the old lady let the children play by themselves and greeted them.

"Aunt Mei, this is my classmate Deng Tong's comb." Peng Jiayu hugged the old lady, and then introduced Deng Tongcomb.

Aunt Mei should have been a stunning beauty when she was young, and although she was older, she could still see the beautiful outline. Hearing Peng Jiayu's introduction, she stretched out her hand to Deng Tongcomb and said with a smile: "Miss Deng is a rare character to see in ordinary times. ”

Deng Tong hurriedly said, "Where is it." ”

Peng Jiayu introduced: "You are like me, call her Aunt Mei." This orphan's home was founded by Aunt Mei. ”

"Aunt Mei has adopted so many orphans, this love is worth learning from." Deng Tongcomb said politely: "The Deng family also has charity projects, if Aunt Mei is interested, I can ask the person in charge to contact you." ”

"That's great." Aunt Mei said happily: "We welcome people with lofty ideals like Miss Deng to join the ranks of public welfare, so that we can do bigger and stronger, and we can better serve the thousands of children who have lost their families." ”

Deng Tong combed and said: "Then it's decided, I'll let a special person come and connect with Aunt Mei when I go back." ”

"Yes, yes." Aunt Mei readily agreed, and took the two of them to a room, "Then you sit down first, and I'll pour you some water." ”

Peng Jiayu said: "Aunt Mei, I'll help you." ”

"Okay."

The two left one after the other, and Deng Tongcomb was not easy to follow, so he had to sit in the house alone and wait.

It is not a troublesome thing to pour a glass of water, but more than ten minutes have passed, but Aunt Mei and Peng Jiayu still haven't come back. Deng Tongcomb couldn't sit still, and when there were two children at the door, she beckoned the two little girls to come over.

The two little girls were not very old, they looked like they were five years old, they were a little timid at first, but in the end, they couldn't resist the temptation of the candy that Deng Tongcomb took out, and ran over happily.

"This candy is for you to eat, tell my sister, what are your names?"

"My name is Huanhuan."

"My name is Sugar Candy."

Deng Tong combed and gave each person two candies, and after a few words, the two little girls became very familiar with her and began to take the initiative to chat with her.

"Do you know the sister who came with me just now?" Deng Tongcomb asked.

Tangtang is a little fat, and her personality is more outgoing than Huanhuan, she said, "You mean Sister Jiayu, right?" We know each other, and she comes to see us every day during this time. ”

"This time?" Deng Tongcomb keenly caught the loophole in Tangtang's words and asked, "What about before, didn't she come to see you before?" ”

"She didn't know us before. Sister Jiayu came back from abroad, and it wasn't long after she came back. By the way, sister, do you know where you are abroad? They say that foreign countries are big and big, and there are many bad people, is it true? ”

Deng Tongcomb smiled dumbly, "Foreign is a general term for countries other than China, and there are many countries. Taken together, it's really big. But who told you that there are a lot of bad guys abroad? No matter where you are, there are always more good people than bad people. ”

"Really?" Sugar Candy blinked and said, "Then have you ever seen a bad guy abroad?" ”

Deng Tong combed: "My sister has been abroad a few times and has seen bad people abroad, but she has only met them once. ”

"Oh." Tangtang said thoughtfully: "What the big fat said must be wrong, hmph, dare to lie to me, I will definitely beat him to cry when I see him tomorrow." ”

Deng Tong combed and said: "It's not right to beat people." ”

"I didn't say I was going to hit someone, I was beating a fat handboard." Sugar Candy said.

"Isn't it beating people with a beating hand?" Deng Tongcomb was amused by Tangtang's strange thinking, and when she was about to chat a few more words, there were other friends named Tangtang and Huanhuan, she hurriedly took out all the candy in her pocket and asked the two little girls to share it with all the children.

"Thank you, sister!" Tangtang and Huanhuan thanked each other in unison and walked happily out the door.

Peng Jiayu and Aunt Mei hadn't come back yet, Deng Tongcomb was sitting bored alone, and asked casually, "By the way, do you know where Jiayu went?" ”

"Sister Jiayu, she and Grandma Mei are talking in that room, they will talk for a long time every time."

The direction of Tangtang's finger was a side room, Deng Tongcomb thought about it, and also walked towards the side room.
