In the morning, Xia He was woken up by Liu Feng knocking on the door.

I've been so tired these days, and after a fight with Er Laizi, I've dragged a heavy body again, and I haven't been able to get up in the morning.

While he was asleep, Xia He heard someone knock on the door gently, and he was startled and thought from his sleep.

Looking up at the window, the morning light had already entered the house, Xia He hurriedly opened his eyes and shouted: "It's coming!" He dragged himself to the edge of the kang, looked for shoes to put on, and staggered to the wooden door to open it.

Liu Feng wakes up twice a night in the middle of the night to add fodder to his beloved old horse.

I got up early in the morning, quietly cooked the meal, put some out by myself, and put the food in the pot for the old lady to heat, and waited for the mother to wake up and eat a hot meal.

Prepare everything, Liu Feng set up a car and rushed to Xia He's house.

Every day, before I could reach the foot of the back mountain, I could see the faint smoke coming from the chimney on the thatched house of Xia He's family.

Today, Liu Feng is looking this way while beating his horse, huh? Why don't you see smoke coming from the chimney? I wondered in my heart, and drove the carriage quickly to Xia He's small courtyard.

I got out of the car, came to the door and pushed the door, but it didn't open, thinking: Didn't you wake up? Or something happened.

Hurriedly knocked on the door twice and listened to the movement in the house, but there was no sound, Liu Feng raised his hand and knocked harder.

At this time, Liu Feng heard Xia He's voice, and Liu Feng's hanging heart was relaxed.

Outside the door, he said, "Don't worry, you slow down." ”

Xia He opened the door, rubbed his sour eyes and said, "I've overslept, come in, I'll pack up, let's go immediately." ”

Xia He sighed, snoring, washing his face and brushing his teeth.

Liu Feng looked at Xia He brushing his teeth with salt and asked, "Does this work?" ”

Xia He said while brushing: "It's very useful, you can try it when you go home at night." ”

Xia He wanted to change his clothes, Liu Feng came out, Xia He shouted: "Brother Liu Feng, you can pull out some vegetables, I will make you delicious noodles today." ”

"Okay! Hurry up and clean up, I'll get it. ”

He walked into the garden, chose some greens, tied them with straw ropes, and put them on the wagon.

At this time, Xia He had already walked out of the house.

Xia He got into the car, and Liu Feng drove the carriage straight to the town.

In the car, Liu Feng asked Xia He: "Are you too tired these days?" ”

"Well, my body is a little tired, plus the stinky second Laizi made trouble yesterday, it's okay, just rest and rest." Xia He said.

"If you're too tired, just rest for a few days, so that your body will not be able to bear it, now I go to the store every day to do more, and I can be busy, not to mention that there are two franchise stores now."

"How's that going to work? I can still work for a month, and it's not too late for me to come back when the baby is about to be born. Xia He said.

Liu Feng knew that Xia He couldn't pull back the eight cows he wanted to do, so he said distressedly: "Aren't you afraid that you will be tired?" Okay, since you think about it, it's up to you, and you can do less work in the store, just take a look at the store. ”

Xia He nodded, and the two of them walked forward as they spoke.

The carriage got off Liujialing smoothly and rushed to the town.

After the last robbery incident, Xia He was terrified every day when he walked here, for fear of meeting robbers again.

However, the county has done a very good job of public security recently, and the gang of robbers heard that they had been eradicated, and after hearing the news, Xia He and Liu Feng were really happy, and they were no longer afraid of the robbers going down the mountain to make trouble.

Xia He was thinking about this, suddenly, there was a faint cry in his ears, Xia He thought it was a cat meow, he didn't pay much attention to it, the carriage went a little further, and Xia He heard the barking again.

This time, I heard it clearly, it was a child's cry, Xia He hurriedly said to Liu Feng: "Stop, stop!" ”

Liu Feng hurriedly grabbed the old horse. Turned around and asked Xia He, "What's wrong?" ”

Thinking that Xia He was uncomfortable, he quickly got out of the car and asked Xia He: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Don't speak, listen to what's the sound?" Xia He whispered.

Liu Feng looked up at the barren mountains in the distance, and the almost farmhouses next to the crops nearby, and didn't know what Xia He wanted him to listen to.

After a while, the voice came again, and a low voice was heard shouting, "Help me, give me something to eat, I'm hungry!" ”

Xia He hurriedly said: "It's a child's voice, look for it, where is it?" ”

The two men followed the sound all the way forward.

Finally, next to a few farmhouses, I saw a half-grown girl curled up in a corner and shivering outside a ruined temple.

Seeing that this girl was wearing coarse cloth clothes, she couldn't tell what color it was, and there were patches on top of her, barefoot, and she looked very pitiful.

Xia He hurriedly ran over, squatted down and asked, "Child, why are you here?" ”

The girl heard the sound of talking, looked up at Xia He, and said weakly: "I'm hungry, give me something to eat!" ”

Tears glistened with tears in his eyes as he spoke.

Xia He hurriedly pulled up the little girl and said, "Let's go, my sister will find you something to eat." ”

The little girl was picked up by Liu Feng and put in a carriage and went straight to the town.

When I came to the store, the eldest sister had already gotten up to clean up, and saw Xia He and Liu Feng hurriedly smiling and greeting: "Here comes the sister." ”

Xia He took the little girl by the hand and said, "Sister, hurry, if there is any food, bring it quickly." ”

At this time, the eldest sister paid attention to the little girl behind Xia He.

Seeing the little girl's dress, the eldest sister knew that she was a little girl named Hanako who asked for food.

Usually, there are often people in the store who ask for food, some who directly reach out to ask for food, and some who come to the store with a huqin to ask for a reward, and every time the eldest sister will give up.

Seeing Xia He leading the beggar over today, the eldest sister hurriedly said, "I'll serve the meal." ”

The eldest sister went to the back and brought up the leftover buns and rice porridge she had eaten in the morning: "Little girl, eat quickly, it's not enough, I'll make it again." ”

When the little girl saw that there was something to eat, she hurriedly stretched out her little black hand, took the bun and ate it in a big gulp.

Watching the little girl eat, Xia He remembered the scene when she was in Liu's house, and couldn't help but sympathize.

When I was in Liu's house, I was really hungry and tired, but fortunately, everything was over like that.

Looking at a few buns, the little girl also burped and slowed down, Xia He asked, "Little girl, what's your name, Daddy?" How did you get out on your own? ”

Looking at the kind-hearted big sister in front of her, the girl cried, and said while crying: "My name is Wen Wan'er, my hometown is dry, and there has been no rain for three years, so my father and mother took me and my younger brother all the way here." Halfway to my father and mother separated, I don't know where they went, I walked here alone, I saw a broken temple and lived, I haven't had dinner for a few days, I'm hungry and I'm about to die, thanks to meeting you, kind enough to give me food, Wen Wan'er thanked the benefactor for saving her life. ”

Saying that, the little girl got up, shook her body, and stepped forward to kneel down and kowtow to Xia He.

When Xia He saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Wan'er: "Hurry up, don't be like this, they are all hard-working people, don't be like this." ”
