Chapter 142: Silent Night

Qin Wanru and Lin Xiaoyao took a car, the car turned left and right under Qin Wanru's guidance, the intricate path made the driver couldn't help but get dizzy, Qin Wanru's home is really a little biased, and the house here is not very regular, but there is also an advantage, which is the only advantage, that is, the area is very large, because each family has a yard, some homes have open gates, motorized agricultural tricycles are parked in the yard, bicycles, tricycles can be parked several, even so there are still a lot of things in the yard.

As soon as there was a little movement in the village, the dogs at the head of the village took the lead in barking, followed by the dogs in every household barking, and the village suddenly became lively, except for the stray dogs, of course, some of them acted alone, foraging everywhere, and some were wandering with their friends, perhaps because they were used to seeing crowds, they generally did not bark.

"It's here, stop for a moment, master."

In front of a brick house, the two got out of the car, Lin Xiaoyao took a look, and the surrounding ordinary houses are the same, the roof is red tiles, the gate is a black iron gate, the gray cement wall encloses a large yard, open the gate to enter, an old-fashioned Phoenix brand bicycle, there is a farm motor tricycle on the side, there are all kinds of agricultural tools in the yard, all used to work in the field, plowing, mowing and spraying pesticides.

"Come in and sit."

Qin Wanru was a little embarrassed to invite Lin Xiaoyao into the house, her home is like this, very simple and poor, the big color TV is still the kind of old-fashioned machine with a big back seat that I bought five or six years ago, this is the only household appliance in the house, there is no washing machine and refrigerator at home, there are sofas and coffee tables in the living room, and the whole layout is simple and cannot be simple.

The house is even colder than the outside, because the house is a little damp, the outside is relatively dry, the temperature in the north is low in winter, the rural family is no heating, like the phenomenon of collective heating will only be popularized in the county or city, and this is to pay, the service is also provided by some property companies or developers, generally from November 10th to the end of March, the price is generally more than 4,000.

It costs more than 4,000 in four months, which is undoubtedly a big expense for a family with an annual income of only 20,000 or 30,000 yuan, even if there is a property company here to start heating here, no one will spend this money, so there is no effect here, most rural families use stoves, so big and small stoves are obviously not enough to meet the heating in the house, the temperature in the house can be stabilized at four or five degrees is already good, if you don't light the stove, even the water in the house will freeze into ice, this is the current situation in Qin Wanru's family, Here, poverty alleviation is the village's long-standing dream.

The house was much colder than in the car, Qin Wanru was shivering from the cold, Lin Xiaoyao didn't feel a trace of discomfort, came in and sat on a small stool very calmly, picked up firewood and threw it into the stove, took a box of matches, lit it and threw it in, and shoveled a shovel of coal into the stove.

The "Hulala" flame burned, and the temperature near the stove began to rise, although it could only increase by four or five degrees, but it was still much better than just now, Qin Wanru looked at Lin Xiaoyao's skillful appearance, and more importantly, he didn't seem to have any dislike for his family, which was undoubtedly a great respect for a child from a poor family.

Looking at his back, Qin Wanru's eyes moistened, and her eyes were a little red, not for anything else, just for this respectful attitude.

The two of them sat on the stool, leaning on the stove to keep warm, the red flames illuminated the cheeks of the two people, there was no sound in the room, it was quietly warm, not only the body, but also the heart.

The moonlight outside the house was wrapped in a layer of faint white light, and in the quiet night, the cold wind blew the earth, and countless stars twinkled in the sky, Qin Wanru gradually became a little tired, and blinked her beautiful eyes like the stars, and gradually fell on Lin Xiaoyao's shoulder.

The fire in the house was still burning, Lin Xiaoyao picked up Qin Wanru, gently put her on the bed, covered her with a thick quilt, and still sat by the stove to add coal.

He knew that this girl was tired, maybe not only today, living in such a family, thinking about changing the status quo of the family all the time, how difficult it was for a girl, a beautiful woman does not rely on appearance, what she endured, she encountered more difficulties than others thought.

The night gradually quieted down, even the barking of the dog stopped, Lin Xiaoyao sat until dawn, and Qin Wanru also slept soundly.

In the early morning, a thin layer of frost formed on the windows of the house, and the big rooster was practicing his voice loudly, and the rooster crowed to drive the barking of the dog, and a new day began.

Qin Wanru opened her eyes, looked at everything around her hazy, and then stretched out and sat up, the fire in the stove was still burning, and Lin Xiaoyao was already active in the courtyard.

I don't know how to describe my mood, in short, Qin Wanru was a little hesitant, I don't know when it started, this man who was four or five years younger than her began to enter her heart, she was a little scared, afraid that she would fall in love with him, and she was also afraid that she was not good enough. Lin Xiaoyao is young and handsome, with a more mature mentality than his peers, and it seems that many of his things are so unpredictable.

This delicate, steady little man, has the charm of a mature man, does things steadily and carefully, decides wisely and decisively, attaches great importance to love and righteousness, and can always be infected by his charm after getting along with him for a long time.

Qin Wanru was stunned for a while, her heart was very conflicted at the moment, maybe she still needed time to think about it, sometimes when a woman falls in love with a man, she really thinks a lot, especially when there is a gap between the two, she always has no confidence.

Putting on her shoes and tidying up her clothes, Qin Wanru pushed open the door, and a cold feeling came to her face, her face suddenly became cold, and the person was also awake from the freeze at this moment, "Xiaoyao, haven't you slept all night?" ”

"Sister Wanru, you're awake, I squinted in front of the stove for a while last night, and I'm not very sleepy."

"Then you won't catch a cold, hurry back to the house, I'll make you something to eat."

"No need, let's go to the hospital, let's have some breakfast together in the county, save having to do it at home, and besides, my uncle is still in the hospital, and my aunt probably hasn't slept well, so hurry up and take over her shift."

"Okay then."

Qin Wanru nodded, and then burst into laughter again, she didn't know when she started listening to Lin Xiaoyao's arrangement.

The two of them drove for half an hour, arrived at the county seat, found a random breakfast shop, drank a bowl of tofu brain, and ate a few fried dough sticks.

"Sister Wanru, you go to the hospital, I'll go to the construction site today to see if I can get my uncle's money back."

After eating, Lin Xiaoyao wiped his mouth and said.

"You're going to ask for money? No, no, it's too dangerous, I know you can fight, but if there are too many people, you will get hurt if you don't say it, you have already helped me a lot, let's talk about this later. ”

When she heard that Lin Xiaoyao went to help her father ask for wages, she was a little moved, but she was more worried that if Lin Xiaoyao was really injured, then she would not die of guilt.

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about this, I'm not so immature in doing things."

"Then I'll go with you."

"Huh." Lin Xiaoyao smiled, this girl is really cute, "Forget it, if you go to that station with such a big beauty, it will be more dangerous." ”

"I hate it, I'm still laughing at people at this time."

Qin Wanru's beautiful eyes turned and glanced at Lin Xiaoyao angrily, her eyes were full of affection.

"It's okay, you can rest assured, Sister Wanru, I won't mess around, if it doesn't work, I'll call Song Jianwei, you can rest assured, right?"

Lin Xiaoyao smiled, she had seen this relationship with her own eyes, in order to reassure her, Lin Xiaoyao still comforted her.

"Okay then."

Qin Wanru nodded, still a little uneasy, "Then be careful!" If it doesn't work, just call. ”

"Got it!" Lin Xiaoyao waved his hand without looking back, and swaggered to stop a car, Qin Wanru couldn't help muttering, "It's like it's okay, I don't know it's dangerous!" It's really worrying, I hate it to death. (To be continued.) )
