Pei Xiaoya and Tian Yan sent Mr. Tian back to the house together, and then they went out. The area in charge of Tian Hui was relatively far away, and Bei Xiaoya was wearing ill-fitting rain boots, and they felt that their feet were about to grind out bubbles, and they only walked to a small village.

The village is a pitiful small village, with only a few thatched houses. Bei Xiaoya and Tian Yan walked into one of the houses and knocked on the door, and a little girl who looked less than ten years old opened the creaky wooden door.

"Teacher Tian." The little girl was very happy to see Tian Yan smiling. She hurriedly welcomed them in, and found two low benches for them to sit on.

Tian Yan looked at the two little boys in the room who were crawling with their bare butts and asked, "What about your adults?" ”

The little girl picked up a boy who had climbed far away and replied, "I went to the field, and I didn't come back for lunch, and I said that I would take advantage of the good weather to quickly help up the crops in the field." ”

"What about you? Have you had lunch? Tian Yan got up and looked at the stove in the corner of the room, but when he saw that there was still some rice soup left, he was relieved.

The little girl put the little boy in her arms back on the mat on the ground and got up to pour water for them. Tian Yan hurriedly stopped and took the prepared rolls from her bag to her.

"You didn't go to class on Friday, the teacher brought you homework, take time to do it, do you want to go to school and ask the teacher again."

The little girl listened to Tian Yan's explanation and nodded obediently.

Before leaving, Tian Ying told her not to take her younger brothers out, because there was a lot of rain, and she was afraid that they would run out to play in the water without knowing the depth. Seeing that the little girls responded one by one, Tian Yan went out with peace of mind.

Out of this village, Tian Yan took Bei Xiaoya into another mountain. The trail is slippery and much more difficult than the one you came from. Some rocks have moss growing on them, and if you don't pay attention, you can roll down. The two of them supported each other all the way up the mountain, and the house on the mountainside was worse than the village they had just gone to, and it was difficult for the house to look sheltered from the wind and rain, and if the storm was bigger, the house might be swept away.

Bei Xiaoya was looking around, and several children ran towards them, both men and women, all of them in tattered clothes, and the mud on their clothes was so thick that they couldn't see the color of the original cloth.

After a few people came, they surrounded Tian Xuan, and it could be seen that they all liked Tian Xuan very much. There was an adult in this family, but it was an old and deaf old man. Tian Yan tried to communicate with him, and the old man also listened with his ears sideways, but the communication was not very smooth. Tian Yan could only explain to an older child in the end, and then took Bei Xiaoya down the mountain.

"There is only one family up there, how can there be six children on it?" Bei Xiaoya dodged the moss on the stones as she walked.

Tian Yan grabbed the tree on one side with his hand, and didn't dare to raise his head, "It's all a family, and it's common for five or six children here." ”

Bei Xiaoya smacked her tongue when she heard it, "Can you raise it?" "Look at these children don't even have decent clothes, why do they have so many children.

"As long as you can pull work, when there was a shortage of food in the past few years, I often heard about people starving to death of children, but now the situation is much better." Tian Yan finally walked down the steepest section, and as soon as his feet fell to the ground, the person exhaled easily.

Bei Xiaoya was even more confused when she heard it, she had to be responsible for him when she gave birth to a child, since feeding was a problem, then why did she have to give birth.

Tian Yan seemed to see her puzzlement, she helped Bei Xiaoya down the last stone step, "There is no contraception, and there is no money to get rid of it when you are pregnant, so naturally there are more and more children, and their concept is that there are more children and more labor in the family, which has caused the current situation over time." ”

Bei Xiaoya nodded. In a few years, family planning should be implemented, and the situation will naturally improve at that time, and it is useless for her to worry about it now.

The two men went down the hill and then went to the next village, and after all the home visits, it was already getting dark.

Because of the previous experience of encountering wild boars, Bei Xiaoya had some shadows in her heart about the environment here, and now that it was dark again, she couldn't help but speed up her pace. Tian Yan has been here for a while, and she knows more about the situation here than Bei Xiaoya, not to mention that there is one more person by her side now, so she is more nervous than Bei Xiaoya.

The two of them were no longer walking and talking like before, but now they were only walking, and the atmosphere of fear grew stronger and stronger in the twilight. It got dark very quickly, and when they were still a long way away from the school, Bei Xiaoya and the others could no longer see the road under their feet clearly, and then they could only grope their way forward.

"There are lights ahead," Tian Yan stopped suddenly, "It looks like a car is coming." ”

As soon as Bei Xiaoya looked up, she also saw the two lights, which were driving in their direction, and they were getting closer and closer.

Without saying a word, Tian Yan pulled her into the bushes on the side, and when she was sure that the light would not shine on them, she whispered, "Let's wait for the car to pass before leaving." ”

Bei Xiaoya looked at her with a solemn expression, and her heart couldn't help but get nervous. She lowered her voice and asked, "Is it a bad person?" ”

Tian Yan was still staring at the vehicles that came over, and said without looking back, "There are a lot of human traffickers here, and if they are caught, they will be sold to a few places on the border, and they can't escape if they want to." ”

Some movie clips of trafficking in women flashed in her mind, and Bei Xiaoya quickly silenced herself, and lowered her head, not even daring to breathe for a while.

It didn't take long for the car to reach their vicinity, and the most terrifying thing was that the car stopped not far away. Before the car could turn off, the people in the car jumped out.

"Anyone, are you mistaken?" After jumping out of the passenger seat, he swept around.

Xiang Bei Xiaoya in the driver's seat took a few steps closer to their position, "You can't be mistaken, there were two people here just now." When the man had finished speaking, he cried out, "Girl." ”

The voice was loud and pleasant, and Bei Xiaoya stood up happily immediately, "Yu Yang, I'm here." After responding, he pulled Tian Yan out of the bushes.

When Yu Yang heard her voice, his tense nerves immediately relaxed. He strode towards them, and before Bei Xiaoya could see his appearance clearly, the person had already been pulled into his arms.

Tian Yan was embarrassed to stand next to him any longer, and took a few steps back neatly, and turned his back with great discernment.

"Why are you here?" Bei Xiaoya stayed in his arms for a while before raising her head to look at him.

Yu Yang still hugged her tightly, and the strength in his hands did not slacken, "When I went home in the afternoon and found that you were not there, I came here to look for you." Why did you go back so late and forget what I said? Yu Yang kissed her cochlea with palpitations while accusing.

Thinking that Lin Nan and Tian Yan were still there, Bei Xiaoya subconsciously wanted to push him away, "Let's go back, my feet hurt." ”

Yu Yang hurriedly let go of her and looked at her rain boots with a nervous expression, "Are you stumbling again?" ”

Bei Xiaoya shook her head, "There are too many ways to go." "Her ankle is so fragile, the last time she fell was purely accidental.

Yu Yang breathed a sigh of relief, "Then you and your friends wait here, I'll drive the car over." ”

Bei Xiaoya nodded, and Yu Yang turned around and went to the parking place. At this time, Lin Nan, who came with Yu Yang, scratched the back of his head and walked towards them slowly. When Bei Xiaoya saw him, her eyes unconsciously looked at Tian Yan, but Tian Yan still turned her back to them.

Bei Xiaoya walked to Tian Yan's side and took her hand. Tian Yan felt the warmth in her hand, and smiled gratefully at Bei Xiaoya with side eyes.

Lin Nan had moved not far from the two of them in a blink of an eye, Tian Yan had obviously noticed it, but she didn't even look back, she just grabbed Bei Xiaoya's hand and couldn't help but tighten.
