Chapter 92: Xiaojing Village
"Bang bang bang" There was a knock on the door.
I opened the door, and outside was a fast delivery guy, he asked me if I was He Chengcheng, and here is my courier for me to sign for.
I took a look at the box, this courier is from a city, inexplicably signed for it, and then opened it to see that it was a check, and a note with crooked fonts.
The note should be hastily written, and the handwriting is very untidy, writing: Brother Allure remember to see a doctor, I will come back to you when I am free, don't miss me!
Zhang Qian looked at the note and said with a little jealousy: "Your brother Allure is already thinking about you!" ”
Then she looked at the check again and said, "It seems that this Boss Yang really doesn't like to owe favors." ”
I silently put the things away, called Xie Hong out again, and said, "Do you know where there is dragon grass?" ”
Xie Hong was not in very good spirits because of the morning, so she shook her head listlessly and said, "Master He, I don't know, can you take me home first, I feel that my mother's condition is not very good." ”
I don't have a clue about the two things now, so instead of waiting, I should go to Xie Hong's house first, maybe I will hear about something going on again when I go far. "Yes, where is your home? We're going to leave today. ”
"Really?"
Xie Hong stood up excitedly and didn't forget to give me a hug. This scene happened to be seen by Zhang Qian again, and she rolled her eyes at me a few more times.
Xie Hong said that her home is a little far away, not far from Jiangshi City, only by the coastline, and said that we can almost spend the New Year there.
I pinched my fingers and calculated, there were still six days before the Chinese New Year, so I called my mother and told her that I would not be going back for the Chinese New Year. Then I told Zhang Jun and Zhang Qian what I thought, and they saw what they meant.
Zhang Jun said that he wanted to take Xiao Xiao home to meet his parents, just in time for the Chinese New Year to meet the wishes of their two elders. And Zhang Qian was willing to join me, so she asked Zhang Jungang to say that she wouldn't go home this year if she had something to do.
According to this plan, we said goodbye and left, agreed to meet after the New Year, and then took the high-speed train all the way to the south, and after several twists and turns on the road for a day and a night, we came to a small town near Jiangshi.
Xie Hong poked his head out and said with a little emotion: "A certain city, I'm back, do you remember me?" ”
Xie Hong then pointed to a spot on the side of the street where she used to sell fish when she was a child, and then to a nearby shop that said the family had overturned her mother's tricycle and that her mother's stall was blocking her family's business.
I had planned to go in and bring some gifts to Xie Hong's mother, but when she said this, I turned around and went to another house. We then flagged down a taxi and drove down the bumpy mountain road to Xie Hong's hometown, Xiaojing Village.
Xiaojing Village is definitely a good place for leisure and vacation, but the road is a little difficult to walk. For this reason, the driver also charged me an extra 10 yuan for postage, otherwise he would have left us at the entrance of the village.
At first, I thought it was expensive, but then I felt that it was actually not a loss, because the entrance of the village was still more than two miles away from the village, and I almost climbed up all the way.
Xiaojing Village is located in a mountain recess near the coastline, the village is not very large, about 100 households, the people are simple, and almost every household has a cow.
Xie Hong said that their land is in the nearby mountains, and when they have nothing to do, they will go to the sea to catch some fish, so in order to facilitate the cultivation of land, every family has the habit of raising cattle.
Xie Hong recalled that their family also had an old cow when they were young, but it was not long after her father's death that her mother sold it in tears due to the pressure of life.
I asked her not to be sad, this time I will leave more money for her mother to dispel her worries in the future, Xie Hong was grateful again after hearing this.
I jokingly said, "I just don't want to take you home all the time." ”
Xie Hong lowered her face after hearing this, but she quickly knew that I was just worried that I wouldn't have a chance to bring her in the future, and said, "Master He, every time you can save the day, I think you will definitely be able to tide over the difficulties." ”
After walking for a while, Xie Hong pointed to a relatively dilapidated farmhouse courtyard and said, "Master He, this is it, let's go in." ”
Xie Hong is ghost body can easily open the door and pick up things after such a long time of cultivation, originally I was worried about how she would explain to her family, and seeing her easily push open the chai door These worries are a little redundant.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Xie Hong's voice.
I hurriedly followed Zhang Qian in, and found a bald old woman lying on the bed in the small room, thin as wood, with her mouth slightly open and only humming.
Zhang Qian looked at it and said, "She shouldn't be hungry, right?" ”
I also felt that it made sense, so I hurriedly opened a box of soft bread and handed it to Xie Hong and said, "Let's see if she can eat." ”
Xie Hong took two pieces and tore them up little by little and put them in the old woman's mouth, but the old woman could only move her mouth slightly and couldn't swallow any food.
Xie Hong was in a hurry and said with a crying voice: "What should Master He, my mother won't eat." ”
I told her not to worry, then went over and lifted the old woman's eyelids, looked at her pupils, and said, "It's hopeless, it's gone." ”
Xie Hong knelt on the ground when she heard this, and pleaded: "Master He, you must have a way to save her, right?" ”
I was a little crazy and dragged Xie Hong up and said, "What are you doing here?" With our relationship, I will definitely say that I can save it, and now that she is dying, I am afraid that she will already choke her breath if I can't bring my soul back. ”
Xie Hong cried and shouted: "How can this be, half of my monthly salary will be sent home, even if I don't mail it for a few months, the money is enough for my mother to eat for a year, how can I suddenly be hungry like this?" ”
At this moment, a middle-aged woman walked in with a bowl of noodles and water: "Yo, isn't this Hongmei?" I was about to call you, but you're back. ”
Xie Hong took the bowl in the middle-aged woman's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, do you give my mother this clear water porridge to see the bottom of the bowl every day?" ”
The middle-aged woman was stunned: "What's wrong?" Are you complaining that your sister-in-law didn't do your best? It's not my sister-in-law who said that you, you are a girl, you haven't seen a person all year round, I have become a sinner with and urine this day, don't forget that your brother is not her son! ”
Xie Hong's lips were trembling, and she raised her hand and dropped the bowl and said, "But she wasn't like this when I left." ”
The middle-aged woman said angrily: "Yes, was it like this when you left, but your mother suddenly fell and became semi-paralyzed, and we couldn't contact you when we called you, what do you think we can do?" ”
Xie Hong calmed down for a moment and said, "How did my mother fall?" ”
The middle-aged woman suddenly changed her smile and said: "It's such a girl, I was a little angry with your brother that day, and then your mother came to persuade her to fight, and she fell down with a push, and then it became like this." ”
