Call the police? It's a country here, and I'm afraid it will take an hour for the police to come, right?

Drive the car back? What to do with so many passengers?

Let them go? Wouldn't that be too cheap for them?

"Hehe, young man, don't be embarrassed, don't worry, leave them to us, according to the old rules!" An honest-looking peasant uncle patted Xiao Yu on the shoulder cordially.

"The old rules? What old rules? Xiao Yu was a little confused.

Uncle Farmer didn't answer, and waved his hand, "Folks, let's do it, follow the old rules!" ”

Immediately, several people stood up and began to pick up the robbers' clothes, and in a short time, they were stripped of their clothes, leaving only a pair of underwear on their bodies.

The more Xiao Yu looked at it, the more confused he became, "What kind of old rule is this?" ”

Both robbers were wounded, and they were so tormented by this tossing that they let out a cry like killing pigs.

The robber had a knife wound to the leg, the wound had only been bandaged briefly, and now it was oozing blood.

"Master Liu! Open the door and throw them out! The old farmer said to the driver.

"What? Throw it out? Xiao Yu looked outside, although Henan is the Central Plains, the climate in winter is not inferior to the north, at this time it is cold and windy outside, although there is no snow, but it is also below zero, and I can't help but feel a little pity for the two robbers.

As soon as the car door opened, two naked figures rolled out, and the two unconsciously hugged each other, like two chickens, shivering in the cold wind.

"Are they alright?" Looking at the appearance of these two people, Xiao Yu couldn't help but be a little worried, in case someone died, things would be big.

"You always have to pay it back when you come out to mix, since you are a robber, you must have this mental preparation, there is a village two or three miles ahead, and you can't die!" The old farmer whispered, patted the driver's back and said, "Master Liu, drive!" ”

"Great!" The driver stepped on the accelerator and the car drove away.

Da Niu finished handing out the change in the plastic bag and walked towards Xiaoyu, but he took a look at the old farmer and shouted in surprise, "Uncle Changgen? Are you Uncle Changgen? ”

"You are?" The old peasant looked at the big cow's face and felt vaguely familiar, but he couldn't name it.

"I'm a big cow! Yang Da Niu in the east of the village! Da Niu patted his chest, and his face showed excitement.

"Alas, you're a big bull! Hey, haven't you seen you in the past six years, you've grown so tall? Two heads taller than me! Uncle Changgen grabbed the shoulder of the big cow and sighed continuously, the child who always ran to play under his own tree to play with birds has now grown into an adult.

"Uncle Changgen, you haven't changed, how about Tie Dan? Is it still in the village? "Da Niu's best friend in the village is Uncle Changgen's old three iron eggs, the two are close in age, and they usually play together.

Uncle Changgen sighed and said, "I have already gone out, he went out in the second year after you left, saying that Lao Wo has no head in this ravine and ravine, and wants to go to the south to work and earn some money, mainly to see the world, and now most of the rest of our village are old people and children, and almost all the young ones have gone out to wander around......"

Da Niu and Uncle Changgen seemed to have endless topics, Xiao Yu listened silently beside him, and gradually sketched a general outline of the current situation in the countryside in his heart.

The car was bumpy, drove for another half hour, and finally arrived at the station.

Xiao Yu got out of the car with Da Niu and Uncle Changgen.

Uncle Changgen led the way, along a winding path to the mountain, Da Niu introduced to Xiaoyu while walking, there is still a distance from Yang Village, all uphill roads, because the road is not repaired, the car can not drive in.

The mountain road is narrow and steep, but Uncle Changgen is like walking on the ground, it seems that he has practiced kung fu by walking the mountain road since he was a child, and he is not inferior to Xiao Yu and Da Niu.

"Da Niu, this place is so far away from the county seat, what do the people in the village rely on for a living?" Xiao Yu saw that the mountain road was rugged and couldn't help but ask.

"In the past, they were all hunters, as the saying goes, the backers eat the mountains! Now that the state is not allowed to hunt, the guns have been confiscated, so I have to find some flat places to reclaim a few acres of land, plant some potatoes, corn or something, eat some of them myself, and then sell some of them, this thing can't be sold for a price, so the village is getting poorer and poorer, and sometimes I can only secretly hunt some game to improve my life, otherwise I really can't live. ”

Xiaoyu was speechless, this poor place is getting poorer and poorer, and the rich place is getting richer and richer, as the saying goes, if you are poor, you will think about change, this small mountain village should also change, I brought a few thousand yuan on me this time, if the big cow's family needs it, I am happy to help them find a way to get rid of poverty and become rich.

In addition, the last time I heard a letter from his grandfather, he said that he had changed to medicinal herbs in recent years, and I don't know what the situation is now.

The three of them walked for twenty minutes, and Yang Cun finally appeared in front of Xiao Yu.

It is a small mountain village, with about twenty or thirty households, and compared with other plain villages passing by, the village has potholes and many more dilapidated houses, most of which are adobe houses, and smell of poverty.

"Da Niu, Gai Ming'er will take your friends to my house for a meal! Today's matter is thanks to you, otherwise I would have run to the county for nothing this time! Uncle Changgen stopped at the entrance of the village, his family lived in the west of the village, two directions from Da Niu's house.

This time, he sold some game that he secretly picked up and gave it to the restaurants in the city, exchanged a lot of common supplies, and still had dozens of yuan in his pocket, which were ready for his grandson to go to school.

"Uncle Changgen, don't talk to the folks in our township, why are you and me so polite? Wait for a few days to be free, we'll see you go! ”

The three of them parted ways at the entrance of the village and went home.

Xiao Yu followed the big cow, turned around on the dirt road in the village, and finally stopped at the door of a family in the east of the village.

The house of this family is also an adobe house, which looks to be at least 30 years old, the house is divided into two rooms, east and west, and the yard is full, and a large tree grows in the middle, and the yard is surrounded by a half-man's high fence with branches.

There are several half-sized chickens in the yard, and a diminutive middle-aged woman is sitting on the threshold to feed the chickens.

"Mother!" Da Niu opened the courtyard door, only screamed, and felt as if something was stuck in his throat and eyes, and he couldn't speak.

The middle-aged woman's body shook suddenly, raised her head suddenly, and saw the big cow standing at the gate of the courtyard, and was stunned for a moment.

The big cow took a big stride, and came to the middle-aged woman in a few steps, pounced, and fell to his knees, "Mother! I am back! ”

The middle-aged woman stretched out her trembling right hand, touched the head of her son, who was almost taller than her sitting, her eyes were full of tears, and she hugged her son in her arms, and kept saying in her mouth, "Da Niu, it's good to come back, it's good to come back!" ”

Xiao Yu looked at the mother and son in front of him, but his heart was sour, if he could have this day, how good it would be!

"Brother!" A crisp girl's voice came from the house, and in an instant, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl appeared at the door.

This girl combed braids, wearing a small plaid cotton jacket, although the clothes are not brand new, but also look clean, the girl has a beautiful face that children in the mountains do not have, especially a pair of big eyes, crystal clear, Xiaoyu saw it, immediately remembered the Hope Project posters plastered all over the streets and alleys of Shanghai.

"You're Erya?" Da Niu came out of his mother's arms and looked at the girl in disbelief.

"Silly boy, who else is it not your sister?" Da Niu's mother secretly wiped her tears, her son has been gone for six years, as the saying goes, the mother of the child is worried, over the years, I have been worried about him, and today I am full of joy to see him appear in front of me.

"Brother! You're finally back! Er Ya ran out of the house and pounced on Da Niu at once.

Da Niu hugged his sister, thinking that when she left, she was still a little little, but she didn't expect that in the past six years, her sister has become a big girl.

Erya hugged her brother for a while, and suddenly saw Xiao Yu standing at the gate of the courtyard, his face suddenly turned red, and he hid behind Da Niu.

The girl in the mountain rarely saw strangers, and was a little shy, Er Ya secretly looked at this strange boy with her eyes, obviously he came with his brother, "Who is he?" Is it my brother's friend? ”

Only then did Da Niu remember that Xiaoyu was still standing outside, and hurriedly introduced to his mother and sister, "Mother, Erya, this is the Zhang Xiaoyu I mentioned in my last letter, and I am also my current boss." ”

"Boss?" Da Niu's mother and Er Ya screamed at the same time, in their imagination, Da Niu's boss should be a middle-aged man in his forties, and Xiao Yu is at most one or two years older than Erya, how did he become Da Niu's boss?

Xiao Yu walked in with a smile and said, "I'm not a boss, I'm a friend of Da Niu, you can call me Xiao Yu." ”

The mother and daughter saw that Xiaoyu was speaking kindly, and they suddenly had a lot of good feelings for him in their hearts.

Xiao Yu chatted with them for a while, and everyone gradually got acquainted.

When the mother and daughter learned from Da Niu's mouth about Xiao Yu's acceptance of him, they were even more grateful to Xiao Yu from the bottom of their hearts.

"Mom, why isn't Grandpa at home?" Da Niu was a little surprised when he saw that his grandfather didn't come out.

"Your grandfather went out early in the morning, saying that it was the New Year, going to the mountains to hunt some game, adding some meat and vegetables to the house, and now it's almost noon, and he should come back, are you hungry? Erya, go cook, I'll help you clean up the house, Da Niu, you accompany Xiaoyu, don't neglect the guests. ”

Erya sighed crisply, took a small basket, and went to pick the vegetables grown in the yard, and the mother and daughter were immediately busy.

Da Niu took Xiao Yu to visit the home, there are four rooms in the two houses, and in the middle is the dining place and kitchen, although the house is old, but the place is quite spacious.

I heard Da Niu say that this house was built by Da Niu's father when he got married, and it took a week for the whole village to help build it, but he didn't expect that his father went out to work and died outside, and this house did not live for a few years.

Xiao Yu looked around, the life in the mountains is really incomparable with the city, except for the necessary furniture, there is not even a TV, and the most valuable thing in the house is probably an old-fashioned radio.

Da Niu's room has not been inhabited for a long time, it is full of sundries, Da Niu is afraid that his mother will be tired, so he goes in to help his mother, Xiao Yu is idle, so he helps Erya cook in the kitchen.

Erya, this girl, don't look young, but her hands and feet are very sharp, it seems that she is used to doing housework, and after a while, a bowl of bacon and fried peppers will be ready.

Seeing Xiao Yu helping her, Erya was a little embarrassed at first, but after a while, she got better.

"Brother Xiaoyu, is there really a train running underground in a big city?" Erya was washing the dishes, and suddenly looked up and asked.

"Yes, it's called the subway, and there is a subway entrance not far from our store, and there are more people who take it every day." Xiao Yu secretly sweated in his heart, he had been in Shanghai for such a long time, but he had never taken the subway once.

"Really! I really want to go to the big city! A trace of longing suddenly flashed in Erya's eyes, as a child in the mountains, the farthest place she has ever been to in this life is Neihuang County, and the big city is just a distant dream for her.
