Chapter 358: Simple Empathy
Here come 11 glamorous 'outsiders'.
More than 20 children dressed in simple and modest clothes.
In the summer afternoon sun, in the countryside of scattered low thatched huts, beside a girl with light on her body, in the middle of three cars parked here in a very abrupt color at the Onishi Village Elementary School.
It's so distinct.
............
A few girls subconsciously looked down at their bright and beautiful clothes, and then looked at the simple and simple Gao Ruonan, they didn't need to look at the children.
At that moment, a sense of self-shame permeated the whole body from the chest, from the heart, from every dopamine......
Xiaomeng's feelings are particularly sharp, this city girl who has never really come into contact with poor people, only feels that every child's slightly curious gaze is like a sharp knife.
Piercing her heart, it was the kind of pain that fell unconsciously from the corners of her eyes.
also has this keen feeling, as well as the little assistant Fu Tian, a girl who is full of emotions herself, and sharply impacted her......
In addition to subconscious curiosity, the children's eyes are more blank.
The only knowledge they have doesn't tell them what makes a difference.
............
Gao Ruonan bent down and said with a smile, "Students, these are uncles and aunts who come to visit you from far away in the mountains, and the teacher usually teaches you what to do when you see strangers?"
A childish voice comes out of the mouth of every child.
"Hello uncle and aunt. ”
Mandarin may not be standard, and the voice may not be so uniform, but these children in the depths of the mountains speak every word so seriously.
Lu An looked at these children and smiled, "Hello, I brought you some daily stationery......
The staff who came with them were already ready, and delivered stacks of books and bags of stationery to each child one by one.
Stationery is available to everyone, books are not limited to textbook knowledge, there are some children's books that help these children to understand the world roughly.
This time, without waiting for Gao Ruonan to speak, the children said in unison.
"Thank you, aunt and uncle!"
Compared with the temporary confusion of thinking, they who have been exposed to textbooks are particularly eager to acquire more knowledge.
The stationery prepared by Lu An for Liu Qi and Fu Tian was not exquisite, it was very simple and simple, and he knew very well what these children needed at this stage.
............
The village party secretary hurried over, saying that it was the village party secretary, to be precise, he was one of the few people who had seen the outside world in this naturally scattered 'vast' village.
It was the name of the farmer, and he was called Huada, because he was the first among his brothers and sisters.
The back is a little hunched, the eyes are cloudy, the age is not steady, the clothes are old-fashioned tunics, the color is very simple only dark blue, the feet are a pair of rubber shoes, the trouser legs are rolled up, maybe just come up from the ground, and there is mud.
Lu An subconsciously glanced at himself, the tailor-made casual pants, the color is not bright or complicated, it is simple, and it is also very appropriate and decent.
On his feet were a pair of casual leather shoes bought by Yanyan in England, not shiny, stepping on the ground mixed with mud and gravel.
In the wrong box.
The dust that was contaminated was very dazzling, and the cleanliness and dust were particularly distressing.
............
Hu Ada's Mandarin is also not standard, and Lu An did not deliberately exchange the Northwest dialect from the system, but only tried to listen to it.
His knowledge is not very wide, but he still has the basic etiquette that has been precipitated by Chinese culture for 5,000 years.
"Hello sir, I'm from Shenzhen, right? I'm Hu Ada, the village secretary of Daxi Village. ”
Hu Ada, who heard Gao Ruonan mention that someone would come to this ravine today, saying that they were coming from Shenzhen to visit the children here.
Lu An smiled and nodded while stretching out his hand, "Hello, Hu Zhishu, my name is Lu An, you can call me by my name." ”
Hu Ah glanced at Lu An's slender and clean right hand, his own hand that could never wash off the color of the soil, subconsciously wiped and wiped the corner of his clothes before stretching out, and carefully took Lu An's hand.
It was like grabbing a fire, and as soon as it caught it, it quickly retracted.
Lu An didn't deliberately make Hu Ada feel uncomfortable, and let the other party retract his hand.
Yu Guang saw his hand, because Hu Ada was deliberately careful, there was not a trace of dust, but his chest was tight!
This farmer, every action is so cautious that it is distressing.
Hu Ada looked back at the children who were very happy holding their books, and said, "Mr. Lu, thank you for coming from afar and bringing hope to the children." ”
Lu An waved his hand again and again, "It should be, it should be." ”
............
Gao Ruonan let the children play on their own, and went to discuss with Liu Qi, Chen Yifa and a few others to discuss from what angle they should show this place through the live broadcast.
Liu Qi and Fu Tian did not interject, and let several anchors discuss it by themselves.
Gao Ruonan was the first to express his opinion.
"I don't know much about the operation of live broadcasting, for this charity outdoor live broadcast, I personally support it, at least, let some people who are also in a difficult environment know that the poverty and so on here can be conveyed to the outside world through live broadcast, so that the light of the civilized world can shine in. ”
In fact, Lu An's meaning has always been very simple, so that the outside world can simply empathize with these poor areas.
To put it more bluntly, it is to hijack the goodness of the public.
Eradicating poverty requires the concerted efforts of the public and the state.
Chen Yifa and Shi Yue also expressed their opinions, they supported this event, and there was a little disagreement about the form of expression.
Liu Qi and Fu Tian did not put forward the corresponding operation method in the plan, only the guidance of the big picture, after all, in the live broadcast industry, the anchors know best.
Xiao Meng, who had never spoken, suddenly interjected, "It's better to be simple, just treat it as a normal chat, don't deliberately guide the audience, but let the audience decide what they want to watch." ”
"I think it's okay!" Gao Ruonan chimed in.
"I think O... K!" Chen seconded the proposal, and she almost habitually said ojbk.
Shi Yue didn't disagree, and the live broadcast began......
............
On the other side, Hu Ada and Lu An also talked about the reason for the poverty here.
"It's hard to get out here, you have to walk more than ten kilometers to get to the town, and even farther away, because of our superficial knowledge and language barriers, we rarely go there. ”
Lu An nodded, he found that the communication of the villagers here was all by shouting, and it was stuck in the era of many, many years ago.
And, I really don't speak Mandarin, and I don't even understand it very well.
"My ancestors have been farmers for generations, and there is enough to feed a family in the field, and there is a fear of the outside world, so few people go out, and in villages like ours, along this mountain range, there are five. ”
As he spoke, Hu Ada gestured to Lu An.
From Hu Ada's account, Lu An knew the real reason for the poverty here, because he didn't understand the outside world, because of the language barrier, because he could survive, so he was unwilling to change.
The more important reason is that the idea of poverty has been taken for so long that it has become a matter of course.
I also know what Gao Ruonan has experienced here, he went to the field to help when he was busy with farming, and he used to be a girl who had no worries about food and clothing, and in addition to bringing knowledge to his children, he did not forget to help the villagers here.
I also know why at this time, the school is not on holiday, because I don't want to, not only Gao Ruonan doesn't want to, but the children also want to receive more knowledge.
I also know why there is so much money, and there is no change here, because it is not the environment that is poor here, but the mind.
Generations of ancestors have wanted to go out and get ahead, but generations of poverty have made it difficult for them to accept change and be content with the status quo.
............
Lu An sighed in his heart, if he hadn't come over, if he hadn't felt it personally, if he hadn't empathized with this atmosphere - those villagers looked at them with blank eyes, not envy.
It is also difficult for him to grasp how to help the local people out of poverty after helping out-of-school children in poor areas!
"There is still a long way to go!"
Lu An gently spit out these four words.
Hu Ada on the side didn't hear Lu An's muttering clearly, and asked with a smile, "What is Mr. Lu thinking?"

The second one, I don't like to watch it, so I went to work in the sea on Xiaopu Street, and this chapter was changed twelve times!
