Chapter 215: Final Preparations (3)

In this way, everyone earnestly learned to read and write, read the tables, broke the routine, and worked hard to develop into a qualified tracing volunteer.

To Ye Feng's surprise, among this group of people, Qianyu's progress was the fastest.

After a period of time, she not only got to know all the people and was able to call everyone's name fluently, but also straightened out the arrangements for food and lodging, and the handover of various tasks in the village.

Not only that, but in a short period of time, she also learned more than 300 words, learned to read Arabic numerals and read tables.

The progress of others is also very fast, but it is not so obvious when compared to it. However, after a period of assault training, most people can basically take charge on their own.

For example, if an abducted baby comes to the door for help, they can follow the relevant procedures to guide the child to register, and at the same time ask Kang and Ye Feng to help check the information.

As for running errands, they've got it all.

No, the National Family Tracing Conference has not yet begun, but this group of people has already helped five children find a home. Volunteers used to be in a theoretical spin and had no idea if their work could actually help others.

Now, I helped five people find a home, and their confidence has increased a lot, and they also feel that they have not studied in vain during this time.

Luo Xiaowei is one of the representatives.

When he was three years old, he was deceived by Hanako for the price of a string of sugar gourds because of greed, and sold it to a farmer in Yi County. This family is very poor, and often eats the last meal without the next.

Rao is like this, the male owner still wants to give birth to a son to succeed the incense.

It's a pity that the hostess can give birth in life, but she has always only given birth to daughters. Just when she was born to the fifth, the man saw that she was still a daughter, and he was completely dead.

With such a family condition as his, it is impossible to marry a concubine.

I didn't know that one day I went to the street to sell corn, and I heard from the seller that there were children in the county recently, and they were all boys. At first, he thought that the other party was selling people with disabilities or diseases.

As a result, when I inquired, it was a normal child, but they were all abducted. This made his already desperate heart ignite again, and through layers of inquiry, it took a lot of twists and turns, and he sold his daughter again, and finally bought the youngest Luo Xiaowei home.

Although he is only three years old, Luo Xiaowei has a very deep memory of his family. Therefore, no matter how the family coaxed him and loved him, Luo Xiaowei was unmoved, howling day and night to go home.

In the end, the two of them couldn't stand it anymore, so they sold Luo Xiaowei again, but they sold it for a higher amount of silver, in the words of the male host, when their biological son was raised for two months, he couldn't lose money.

The new one was bought because I couldn't give birth.

I communicated with the man before buying it, and I knew that the resale was not because of a disability or a dark disease, but because I couldn't support my family. When the family heard this, they laughed in their hearts, as long as the stick was blessed, they were still afraid that a small child would be disobedient?

After buying it back, Luo Xiaowei still stubbornly cried and wanted to go home, and sure enough, he was beaten all over his body, but he was still stubborn, he just refused to call the husband and wife's father and mother, which made them very faceless and another beating.

On this day, Luo Xiaowei couldn't help but sleep, in the middle of the night. While the couple was asleep, they quickly escaped, and they were adopted by the Salesian Bureau of Yi County.

It just so happened that the whole country was helping the abducted baby this time, and as soon as Luo Xiaowei's information was posted, his family immediately confronted him, just because after so many years, Luo Xiaowei still remembers the family information clearly.

However, the joy of returning home was only for a while.

After Luo Xiaowei was abducted by Huazi, Luo's father and mother were indeed desperate for a while, but no matter how desperate they were, they had to continue to live. After all, Luo Xiaowei's grandparents are still alive and need support.

The couple regained their strength and had several more children, all of whom were sons.

Gradually, the couple's hearts were filled with these children, and with the hard work day and night, they didn't think about Luo Xiaowei anymore.

When Luo Xiaowei first returned home, his family was still very enthusiastic. But gradually, this enthusiasm faded. The family is not rich in the first place, and there are many people, so it can't be solved just by eating, which can be said to be a constant contradiction.

The two sisters-in-law gave birth to children separately, the eldest sister-in-law became pregnant again, and there were three younger brothers below...... For Luo Xiaowei, a family member who suddenly appeared, although the family did not show it obviously, the two sisters-in-law never had a good face.

In this way, for the first time in his life, Luo Xiaowei regretted finding home, despite how much he longed to return home in the past years.

Therefore, as soon as the news came out that Chenjiacun was going to recruit volunteers this time, Luo Xiaowei immediately signed up. For his decision, his family also blocked it, but Luo Xiaowei did not hesitate at all.

Home is there, just go back when you want to. Instead of living together and looking annoying, it is better not to live together and contact occasionally, which may be more nostalgic.

Family affection or something, sometimes it can't stand the grind of reality at all.

After two months of training, he can now read and write and have the opportunity to communicate with his peers who have been abducted by Hanako. At the same time, it can help others.

He felt that this life was very fulfilling and meaningful.

has a similar experience to Luo Xiaowei and Zhang Tengda.

Listening to the name, don't think that his family is a scholarly family, no, just one of the thousands of poor people. When he was a child, he was bored by himself, and quietly followed the ass of the villagers to the town, but unfortunately was targeted by Hanako and abducted.

He has always been a cowardly man, and since he was trafficked, he has done whatever the buyer says, for fear that he will be beaten up if he resists a little. This is not to blame him, but on the night he was bought home, he was severely beaten, and warned that if he dared to disobey, he would be beaten to death.

Where has the little child seen such a battle, and he was immediately scared to pee his pants. Since then, he has been living in this home until he was rescued by the local Salesian Bureau in October last year, and he successfully compared it with the information registered in the case and successfully returned home.

The family has long become strangers, and his parents have given birth to several younger siblings. It's him, the boss, who looks out of place at home. For him to participate in the volunteer, his father and mother did not stop him.

Seeing this, Zhang Tengda felt cold in his heart, and joined the ranks of volunteers without looking back. His dream is to try his best to rescue the child when he has just been abducted and send him back to his original family.

Maybe you can successfully integrate in this way.

In addition to Zhang Tengda and Luo Xiaowei, the situation of those female volunteers is even more special. They were either sold to a dirty place like ***, or they were sold to a farmer's house as child brides.

However, they were lucky, because of their young age, they escaped the catastrophe and did not embark on the road from which they will never recover.

And these families have a common characteristic, that is, they are poor and can't marry a daughter-in-law at all, so they take the road of child daughter-in-law. Born as women, they are also abducted, and their fate is destined to be much more tragic than that of men.

When I was young, I did everything, I was treated like a nanny, and when I was a little older, I was harassed by men. If they are found out by the hostess, they can only be beaten badly, and then let them have a child with their son as soon as possible.

When some women were rescued, they were reluctant to follow their parents home because they already had children of their own. If they follow their mother's house like this, their children will become motherless children.

They themselves have experienced such days, so they don't want their children to follow this path again.

That's pretty good.

Most of these women are disliked by their families.

Because if they go back, they won't even be abandoned by their husbands' families, and their families can't hold their heads up in the village. As a result, many families would rather pretend they didn't know each other than take them home.

Ye Feng listened to their story, and felt very uncomfortable, and at the same time a little glad that he was saved by the monk. Although the life of the temple is hard, there is no need to experience joys and sorrows like them.

If, like these children, he was sold to a family where he could not have children, or was sold to work as a laborer in a black coal kiln, then he really didn't know what he was doing now.

Ye Feng suddenly began to understand Xue Dan.

A child who has been abducted since childhood, if there is no accident, will naturally die alone in the Nameless Temple. In this case, ideals and longings will only make you more miserable, so it is better to put out this fire early and become a monk wholeheartedly.

After all, if the heart does not move, it does not hurt.

And people like Ye Feng who have a "restless" heart and are bent on going out will most likely not end well.

Ye Feng knew in his heart that the reason why he was able to persist until today was not because he had one more lifetime of experience, so he had such a tenacious heart. And the child with the same name and surname as himself at the beginning has passed away.

Thinking of this, in this day's class, Ye Feng said with feeling: "I know that everyone here has their own story, but the story represents yesterday, and now, we still have countless tomorrows to look forward to." Therefore, even if we do not forget the past, we must begin to look forward to the future. Think about it, when you were abducted and trafficked, when you were beaten by your master's family, can you think that you are where you are today? So, it's not that we can't do it, it's that we can't even think about it. ”

This is the typical chicken soup for the soul. Maybe everyone had never heard such inspirational words before, so they were stunned for a while, and they felt that their blood was boiling, and they felt that there was still hope in their lives.

"Today, I would like to take this opportunity to confess one thing to you, that is, I, like you, was also abducted by Hanako. But you are more fortunate than I am, because many of you have found your parents, and I have not found them. However, I will not give up, and I will keep looking until the day I find them. So, I hope you don't give up. ”

"I know that some of you have some minor problems with your families, but it's not something that can't be solved. Instead of feeling sorry for yourself and complaining about others, it is better to make yourself strong first, and when you are strong enough, you believe that things will have other endings. ”

Hearing Ye Feng say this, everyone was surprised, and at the same time relieved. They often want to ask why Ye Feng lives so happily, selling flowers and opening a shop, but he is still so enthusiastic about helping these abducted babies.

It turned out that he himself was one of them.

From this day on, many volunteers had a different mentality and worked harder. They want to help themselves, help others, and help Ye Feng.

They want to be people like Ye Feng even more.

By July 24, the village's infrastructure had been completed, and the new Salesian Bureau had been built. Whether it's furniture or daily necessities, it's all in place.

I have to say, it's good to have silver.

Kang personally came to see it and felt very satisfied, and the accommodation conditions alone were better than the Salesian Bureau in the city, I don't know how many times.

There is also a division of the latrines for men and women, and even the accommodation is strictly separated. Previously, Kang had been worried that these children were getting bigger and bigger, and it was natural for opposites to attract, and if something unpleasant happened again, it would be troublesome.

After all, they are still young and can't afford something that shouldn't happen when they haven't found their home yet. If you can't support yourself, how can you feed the next generation?

Now, the new residence has put all these contradictions out.

Therefore, the Salesian Bureau in the city, under the organization of Aunt Wu, hurriedly began to pack, and after reorganizing the children's information to ensure that everything was correct, the relocation began early in the morning.

Since most of them were children, it was quite a hassle to relocate.

Although there is not much luggage, there are a lot of people, and they are so eye-catching that there is no room for error. That's where the role of volunteers comes into play.

Dozens of well-trained volunteers divided the children into more than 30 groups, and two people were in charge of one group, leading the children step by step towards Chenjia Village.

As for the few pieces of luggage, the county sent a car and walked slowly behind the people.

The children were all away for the first time, and they were a little scared at first, because it reminded some of them of their past experiences of being trafficked, and they were still a little scared in their hearts.

Fortunately, there were comforts from the volunteers and some stories to tell them, and everyone knew each other, so they slowly let down their guard.

Because the weather was hot, everyone set off early in the morning, just for fear that the children would suffer from heat stroke.

Before the road was built in Chenjia Village, it would take about half an hour for adults to walk to the county. However, after the road was built, there were no problems within half an hour.

However, today these children are physically weak, and they are attracted to such and such things along the way, so it must take a lot longer. No, after walking for a while, some children shouted that they couldn't walk.

Seeing this, these volunteers would also do something, and comforted them with a smile: "Children, Chenjia Village is very close, and it will be there after a while." Did you know that there are many, many delicious foods in Chenjia Village? There was meat, there were pastries, and hot water for bathing. We'll be there in a while, and we'll be able to eat something delicious. Also, the houses there are brand new and very comfortable to live in. ”

Older children are already very obedient and much more mature than their peers. As soon as I heard this, I also helped the volunteers comfort those little children.

In this way, all the way, all the way, all the way, all the way, all the way, slowly getting closer and closer to Chenjia Village.

Along the way, there were many villagers working in the fields, and when they saw such a spectacular scene, they thought that something was wrong at first, and put down their farm tools and pointed at them.

And when I saw that most of these children were yellow-skinned and weak, and that they were looking at people with evasive eyes, I felt some sympathy for them. But as soon as I asked, I understood what was going on, and I began to envy these children again.

Although they were abducted since they were children, they left their parents early, and they had no father's love and mother's love, but now the local government has begun to pay attention to this matter and help them find their fathers and mothers.

I think that with the intervention of the government, I should soon be able to find my way home.

Now, they are going to live in Chenjia Village, oh my God, Chenjia Village, that is a village that even His Majesty the Emperor knows.

It is said that the villagers there have meat and clothes of good materials, and every household has silver deposits, and the village has daily inputs, all of which are stored in the money bank, and dividends will be distributed at the end of the year.

It can be said that Chenjia Village is now a paradise dreamed of by farmers within a radius of hundreds of miles.

An hour and a half later, when most of the children began to shout tired, the official road finally came to an end, and the archway with the words "Chenjia Village" appeared in everyone's sight.

Seeing this, the volunteers hurriedly cheered up the children and said, "Look, this is Chenjia Village, let's walk a little further to where we live." In this way, whoever arrives first will be given an extra piece of meat to eat when the time comes. ”

When they heard that their destination had arrived, and that there was meat to eat, the children cheered and ran inside. The road is flat, clean, and much smoother to run. The children said as they ran, "It's so beautiful here."

Considering that everyone was tired and walked for a while, the volunteers asked the children to sit down on the stone chairs to rest.

The sun was rising, and finally, at about half past ten in the morning, they were all at their new accommodations. As for the ox cart for the luggage, it has long arrived.

Kang Shi and Ye Feng took the children to the place where they ate, where a meal had already been prepared for each person. Although there are more vegetables and less meat, it is better to be clean and the amount is sufficient. There was also a small piece of cake to welcome the children.

Seeing this, the children all began to swallow their saliva. After washing his hands as requested, he obediently sat down on a stool and began to eat.

This is the first time they have done this, and they have their own separate rice bowl and food. In the past, they were all mixed, and the bowls were not enough, so the small ones were eaten first, and the big ones were eaten last.

And now, it's big enough and the bowls are big enough to eat together.

While the children were eating, the volunteers took their luggage off the car, untied it one by one, and divided it according to their names.

Previously, according to Ye Feng's suggestion, Kang and the volunteers sorted out the child's original name slightly, and then wrote it all on the bedside.

Originally, Ye Feng wanted to give them a new name, but after thinking about it, he was afraid that the children would remember the new name and forget their previous name.

You know, these residual messages in the mind are crucial, and they are the only evidence that parents and children recognize each other after years of separation.

This plane does not have the advanced detection technology of modern times, and all it can rely on is the remnants of each other's memories and similar appearances.

There is no other way.

The sheets and cups were new, and the mats were thick at the thought that autumn was coming soon. In addition to this, even the quilts for the winter are ready and stuffed in each child's cabinet.

If you feel cold, you can add it at any time.

After lunch, the volunteers took the children to the bathhouse according to their gender, where the volunteers had already boiled hot water and put some herbs in it.

The season is about to change, children are weak, very easy to get sick, and these children eat, drink and play together day and night, one is sick, and the others are easily infected.

After bathing, the children changed into new clothes prepared by the volunteers. One by one, they changed in an instant, although they were still yellow and thin, but their spirits were much better.

When a child saw that he was taking a bath and had new clothes and a new quilt, he asked one of the volunteers weakly, "Sister, is this going for the Chinese New Year?" ”

In her memory, even the Chinese New Year can't be so good. However, she could think of no other reason than this.

"It's going to be a few months before the New Year. There are a lot of good people who have helped us and donated money to us, so we took the money out and bought these things for you. You can rest assured, we will get better and better in the future. ”

The child had some scars on his hands that had been left by chilblains a few years earlier. Looking at the young but scarred hand, everyone was a little unbearable.

However, now, the children have their own land, and next year they will grow longevity. When I have an income, I will buy some chickens, ducks and pigs to ask, and I believe that life will be better.

After the relocation of the Salesian Bureau, the Yamen reclaimed the land and made minor repairs, especially to strengthen the beds and add some new beds. These beds are all made according to the patterns provided by Ye Feng, and they are all bunk beds.

In this way, a house can accommodate as many people as possible.

This is also to prevent the number of people who come in September, and if Chenjia Village cannot live, it can also be used as another place to stay.

As for Aunt Wu, seeing that the Salesian Bureau in the county had a new look, she followed the people from the government to Chenjia Village. Speaking of which, she is used to doing this, and she has a relationship with the children, so she is naturally willing to continue to serve everyone here in Chenjia Village.

Anyway, the volunteers will have to leave sooner or later, and she will still be able to play her part. Otherwise, she wouldn't know where she could go.

In addition, Ye Feng and Chen Qianfan took the villagers to draw road signs on how to get to Chenjia Village all the way from Chenjia Village to the county. The slogans were written in bold and eye-catching font on a plaque and nailed to a sturdy wooden stick.

The villagers only need to dig a deep pit with a hoe, bury the lower end of the stick, and finally fill it with soil.

The purpose of this is also for those guests who come from afar. Because not everyone is willing to spend money on an ox-cart or a horse-drawn cart. In order to save money, some people are willing to walk here.

In short, under the leadership of Chen Jifa, the people of Chenjia Village have made the final preparations and improvements to Chenjia Village, making sure that tourists from other places feel at home, and they want to come for the second time when they come for the first time.

As for those shops, they had already received a notice prohibiting taking the opportunity to increase prices arbitrarily, and Chen Jifa even negotiated a reasonable price with the bosses on the raw materials and ingredients needed for the basic dishes.

All for one purpose, that is, the National Family Tracing Conference in two months.
