Fengying has a special affection for Lao Hu, who has a rich heritage in the capital and has little left, and likes the courtyard even more, because he thinks that the courtyard house brings the world closer to the warmth and coldness of the world, and condenses the true feelings of the world, which is far from being comparable to high-rise buildings. \\\\ When he left the Yanjing Building, he began to walk through the streets and alleys, and when he passed a courtyard house in an alley, he actually found that this courtyard house was for rent, so he did not hesitate to go in and rent one.

This set of courtyard houses is quaint and quiet, in addition to the wind shadow, there are also three families living in them, there is a pair of mother and son living on the left, the mother is sick, bedridden for a long time, the son is called Hua Zhongtian, the student looks, thrifty and filial; On the right lived a delicate woman, twenty-one or twelve years old, taciturn, day and night, the wind shadow rarely touched, only known as Red Candle; On the other side of the Wind Shadow, there is a landlord, an ancient old man, who will pull the Wind Shadow to play Go if he has nothing to do, Go pays attention to the game, although the Wind Shadow is not fine, but he can also deal with it.

The second day of Fengying's move, it is the day of paying rent at the end of the month, the rent is not expensive, 380 yuan per household, which is so cheap that it can not be cheaper in today's crazy rise in prices, and it is difficult to find a second home in the whole city of Beijing, and the old landlord lives by collecting such a little rent, which is not easy.

Kazekage had already paid a season's rent in advance, so the landlord didn't look for him, and knocked on the door of the woman named Red Candle. Kazekage stood in the courtyard brushing her teeth, and saw her gently open the door a crack, and without waiting for the old landlord to speak, she slowly handed him four yuan, and she waited for the old landlord to make change with a blank face. Kazekage clearly felt the tiredness and reluctance in the woman's eyes, and he shook his head, lowering his head to concentrate on brushing his teeth.

"Zhongtian, your mother and daughter haven't paid the rent for three months, my old man shouldn't have forced you to be a child, but ......" The landlord stopped Hua Zhongtian, who was about to go out, with a red face, and didn't know how to continue halfway through the conversation.

"Don't worry, I will pay my salary today, and I will pay off all the rent owed in the evening." Hua Zhongtian looked embarrassed, his malnourished face turned even paler, he paused, and said, "I'm not here during the day, my mother asks you to take care of it more." ”

"Hey, go to school, I'm at home."

Hua Zhongtian said goodbye to the landlord, then nodded slightly at the wind shadow, turned around and rode out the door on the old and worn bicycle.

"Old man, is Zhongtian still studying?" Kazekage asked as she washed her face. []

"You don't know Zhongtian?" The landlord was sorry and asked.

"Old man, why do you ask that? You know I just moved in, how do you know him? ”

"You don't watch TV and newspapers?" The landlord asked again.

"Nowadays, TV and newspapers are basically advertisements, so I rarely watch them."

"It's no wonder that Zhongtian is one of the top ten people who 'moved China' last year, and his deeds of studying behind his mother's back can be said to be a ......household name."

"Oh? It turns out that there is still a star living in our courtyard, quick, old man, tell me about his deeds. Kazekage said in surprise.

"Zhongtian lost his father since he was a child, and his mother lived a difficult life in the countryside, because Zhongtian was smart and studious, his mother couldn't bear him to drop out of school, so he went to the mountains every day to dig herbs, and then took it to the market to buy some money for him to study, but there were unforeseen circumstances, one day when Zhongtian was in junior high school, his mother went into the mountains again to dig herbs, and as a result, he encountered a flash flood, and under the joint efforts of everyone, his mother's life was saved, but he was half-paralyzed, and his brain became dementia due to the lack of oxygen in Yanzhòng......"

"What a great mother!" Kazekage sighed.

"Yes, a mother is a great mother, but a son is also a great son." The landlord stabilized his mood and continued: "Affected by this change, Zhongtian not only did not drop out of school, but his academic performance rose rapidly, in order to take care of his mother, and did not affect his studies, Zhongtian, who was only fifteen or sixteen years old at the time, quietly rented a broken tile house near the school, and maintained the livelihood of his mother and son by picking up waste after studyingTaking into account his practical difficulties, the school exempted him from tuition and miscellaneous fees, and also made room for their mother and son to make a dormitory, so that the mother and son could really settle down. Zhongtian work-study, smoothly admitted to Beijing University of Finance and Economics, so, he carried his mother all the way to Beijing to study, without affecting the study, he worked three jobs a day, and later the school discovered his deeds, which caused a strong response in the school and society, many people spontaneously raised donations for him, and as a result, he transferred all the money raised to the Red Cross Society of China. ”

"What? He is so difficult, why doesn't he accept donations from the society? Kazekage exclaimed.

"A reporter once asked him this, but his answer was that I can support me and my mother!"

"That's it?"

"Yes, many people thought that he would say something grandiose, or say something within the range of 'others need help more', but he didn't, just such a simple sentence, which moved countless people and was rated as the most classic sentence of the year."

The landlord's eyes were a little moist, the eyes of the wind shadow were a little hazy, and the rain suddenly began to fall.

With a "bang", something seemed to have hit the ground in Hua Zhongtian's room, and Fengying, who was about to go back to the room to hide from the rain, and the landlord quickly rushed over.

When the two entered the room, they saw Hua Zhongtian's mother lying on the ground, dragging her bony body towards a smashed teacup. Without saying a word, Kazekage stepped forward and carried her to the bed, took her pulse without leaving a trace, and then took the water handed by the landlord and fed her to drink.

When she fell asleep, Fengying raised his head and looked at the house, it was very simple, except for the mountains of books, it was a mountain of Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine was naturally prepared by Hua Zhongtian for his mother, and the books were all economic books, seeing this, Fengying's heart was surging, and he made a decision that would make him prosperous in the future.

That night, the rain stopped, but the wind shadow did not sleep, meditating on the bed while cultivating the wind and fighting qi, while waiting for Hua Zhongtian to come back, when he heard the footsteps, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and he quickly gathered his strength and came to the courtyard.

"Why haven't you rested yet?" Hua Zhongtian parked the car and asked.

"I'm waiting for you." Kazekage replied.

"You're waiting for me? Why is it late, is there something wrong? Huazhong Tian asked and sat down with Fengying.

"I can heal your mother." Kazekage said flatly.

"What?" Hua Zhongtian was shocked: "How is it possible? For seven or eight years, I have taken my mother to seek medical treatment everywhere, but nothing has happened, how can you save my mother? ”

"I checked your mother's pulse today, and in addition to the irreparable squeezing of her lower limbs, I am confident that I can help her recover from her necrotic brain and nerves in both arms."

"You, do you really have a way?" Hua Zhongtian excitedly held Kazekage's shoulder, and then reluctantly let go: "But I don't have the money to pay you......"

"I know that you never take the favor of others lightly, you have no money, then work for me, don't you study economics? I'm just short of talent like you. ”

"Who the hell are you? And to save my mother, and to give me a job, this, this ......"

"You will know in the future that I saved your mother in order to get your help in the future, a mutually beneficial thing, there is no kindness, and you don't owe me anything."

"Thank you!"

Speaking of which, someone suddenly knocked on the door, Fengying and Hua Zhongtian were very strange, who would come so late? Hua Zhongtian opened the courtyard door, and it was actually two policemen.

"Excuse me, does Red Candle live here?" The officer asked.

"Yes, she doesn't seem to be there, you have something to do with her?" Hua Zhongtian invited the police in.

"Which of you is her relative?" The policeman asked again.

"None of us, what's wrong?" Kazekage asked.

"She died, so we came to her family to identify the body." The policeman said with a blank face.

"What? He's dead? Kazekage and Hua Zhongtian asked in unison, "How did you die?" ”

"Red Candle went to a foreigner's apartment tonight to prostitute herself, and was tortured to death by three gringos."

"What? Prostitution? Feng Ying and Hua Zhongtian looked at each other in surprise, stunned. How could such a pure and silent girl go into prostitution?
