Chapter 42: Neighboring Villages
"Ermiao, there was also a volunteer team in Xingcun next door not long ago, you and Jiayin are busy tomorrow and follow the team to take a look, see if you can help, by the way, take some disinfectants in short supply, it would be better if you could get more other medicines, this ghost place where birds don't lay eggs is really a ghost." Director Ji scolded and commanded, and his hands were not idle.
Song Miaomiao tilted her head and took a look at it, and all kinds of herbs under Director Ji were carefully packed by her and placed in a small cabinet.
"Director Ji, I'll go with the team tomorrow and let Er Miao rest for a while, her face has been terrifyingly bad lately." Gu Jiayin put down Yueyue lightly and supported her to play by herself.
Director Ji raised his head when he heard this, it was only six o'clock in the evening, and it was already dark outside, and the room needed to turn on the lights to barely see, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was reluctant, after all, the dim light like an old photo could not be called barely sighted.
"Dead girl, you've lost a lot of weight." Director Ji put down the work in his hand, and looked at the smiling face that loomed in the faint yellow light with a rare distress, this child, she really didn't look away, she just asked casually, but she didn't expect her to really agree to come to Taocun with her, the environment here is beyond imagination of poverty and dilapidation, the other children in the college have stayed for less than a month and left, and in the end, the only people she led the team to stay were her and Gu Jiayin, who were the least optimistic about everyone. In the past two months of getting along, the two children have worked hard beyond her expectations, and despite the harsh environment, they have never complained about anything, on the contrary, they have enjoyed it more. However, looking at Song Miaomiao, who was losing weight day by day, she was still worried in her heart, if she wasn't energetic every day, she would have to wonder if this child had fallen under the curse of Yuming Village in Y City.
"Isn't it good to be thinner?" Song Miaomiao touched her face that had shrunk a lot, although it didn't meet her expectations, but it had already met her expectations, "It's good to roll up your pants and do revolution when you're as light as a swallow." ”
Director Ji raised his hand and gave her a violent shudder, and said sharply: "Where is there any revolution for you to do, protect yourself well, do your best to know the destiny of heaven, do what you should do, it is enough to have a clear conscience, don't take your worthless life to be blind, be careful that one day it will be gone." ”
Song Miaomiao covered her head in pain, and said aggrievedly: "The little one obeys the will of the Queen Mother, but I still have to go with Jiayin tomorrow, I heard that there will be a bonfire party in Xingcun next door in a few days." ”
Gu Jiayin chuckled lightly when she heard this.
Director Ji glanced at the two of them and said, "Go and go, let me go quickly, pay attention to safety on the road, go early and come back early, do you hear?" ”
The two smiled and responded, turned around and ran away.
"Sister Miao, I want to go with you tomorrow." Yueyue coquettishly shook Song Miaomiao's hand from side to side.
"No, although it is the next village, but the distance is still very far, at least two mountains have to be crossed, we will set off at dawn tomorrow morning, and I don't know if I can get it before the sun sets in the evening, how can you stand it with a little radish head, you just wait for us at home, my sisters will come back in two days." Gu Jiayin coaxed softly.
"Don't want me, I want to follow Sister Miao, sister, you promised Yueyue, you won't abandon Yueyue, Yueyue is very well-behaved, I won't be a burden to my sister, I can not drink water or eat food, as long as you don't leave me." The girl's thin little hands grabbed Song Miaomiao's hand, her big watery eyes were full of tears, her small nose was slightly red, and the corners of her mouth, which were raised a moment ago, were deflated into wavy lines at this moment.
Song Miaomiao was so distressed that she hugged her thin body, stroked her back again and again, and her mouth was full of compromise.
Gu Jiayin looked at the way the two got along too closely, and her heart was distressed and accompanied by deep uneasiness.
