Chapter 4 Poor Country

"What's your name?" Xia Yanru tried her best to show a soft smile, she was used to fighting and killing, she had always had a bloody aura on her body, and she had long forgotten what gentleness was.

"My name is Ying Weiguang, you can call me Weiguang." Ying Weiguang replied eloquently, in fact, there are very few people in the village who can speak Mandarin, but because Ying Fengshan learned Mandarin in the years he was an apprentice outside, he will also teach Ying Weiguang to speak Mandarin on weekdays.

"Weiguang, your name is nice, do you like sugar?" Xia Yanru had no experience in getting along with children, and originally wanted to take the opportunity to inquire about something, but when she met Ying Weiguang's innocent eyes, she dispelled this idea for a while.

Thinking that there were all kinds of candy in the materials he had collected, he pretended to take out a loose toffee from his pocket and handed it over.

Can a child not like candy? Of course not, but don't look at Ying Weiguang is only 4 years old, but his restraint is definitely higher than that of his peers, even if he can't help secreting saliva when he smells the smell of milk, he doesn't reach out to catch candy without being sensible.

Ying Weiguang knew very well the value of a piece of sugar, and when the people in the village couldn't eat enough, this candy was much more precious than usual, so he had to shake his head with longing and refuse, "Big sister, thank you, I, I don't like to eat sugar." ”

At this moment, Xia Yanru was a little sad in an instant, she was already hungry, how much self-control did she have to refuse this toffee?

Xia Yanru knew very well the preciousness of a toffee, whether it was in the last days before, or in this poor mountain village now, she must have been replaced by other children, and she would not be crazy to rob it, but the child in front of her held back, obviously her eyes were full of desire.

I have to say that the tutor of the Ying family is very good, at least Xiao Weiguang's actions won Xia Yanru's favor, and at the same time, he reached out and forcibly stuffed the toffee into his hand.

"My sister doesn't like to eat it either, so I'll give it to you, if you don't want it either, it'll be bad if you keep it there, it's a waste." Xia Yanru's voice was gentle and neutral, and she could not refuse.

A kind of momentum from the superior, but it suppressed Xiao Weiguang, and he was a little overwhelmed with the toffee for a while, but he also felt Xia Yanru's kindness.

At this time, Ying Fengshan also happened to enter the house, saying that he was going to boil water, but as long as he added water to the pot and lit a fire in the stove, he didn't have to keep staring at him, calculate the time, and pass it almost at the same time.

"Daddy." Xiao Weiguang grabbed the toffee and looked at his father a little helplessly.

"Since it was given by my sister, let's take it." Ying Fengshan's temperament is straightforward, although a piece of sugar is precious in these years, but he believes that he will always have a chance to repay the other party's favor, besides, his son has indeed suffered a lot, and it is of course better to have a piece of toffee to make up for it.

"Thank you, sister." Xiao Weiguang thanked Xia Yanru a little embarrassed, then turned around with the toffee to find his mother, he couldn't wait to share this sweet and greasy toffee with his mother.

"Comrade Xia, I'm really embarrassed, the situation at home is really..."Although Ying Fengshan said that he believed that he could return this candy, he was not able to do so at the moment, and he was still a little embarrassed for a while.

But before Ying Fengshan finished speaking, Xia Yanru spoke first: "Captain Ying, I have a reluctant request, if Captain Ying can agree, don't say a piece of toffee, I still have a way to get you food." ”

When Ying Fengshan heard this, his pupils shrank suddenly, and then his muscles tightened, even if he didn't feel good, he could feel his extreme nervousness and vigilance at the moment.

"What do you want to do?" Ying Fengshan asked, his voice a little low.

"Captain Ying, don't worry, I'm not a bad person, and I don't want to do bad things, I just want to ask you to help me leave my hukou in the village, in addition, I also want to ask if there are any newspapers in our village in recent years, I want to see it." Xia Yanru explained that in fact, at first, she wanted to directly ask all her doubts, such as what year and month it is now, and which country is here.

But in the face of the vigilant Ying Fengshan, coupled with the fact that these problems are too easy to expose her abnormality, she thought that she must be an outsider in this space, so it is better to solve the household registration problem first, it is not good to be a black household for the rest of her life, and the other is to find the newspapers of recent years first, and directly obtain the news she wants to know through the information in the newspaper.

"Just settle in and old newspapers?" Ying Fengshan was a little surprised, but then he began to be vigilant again, the hukou problem is not big, but in the same way, once the hukou is implemented, if there is anything bad about this female comrade in front of her, it is their Shishan Pass that is unlucky in the end.

"Naturally, I'm from Jinling City, and my family has passed away. To be honest, I will appear here, and I once heard the old man in the family mention, I am an orphan girl, even if I want to do something bad, I will not choose such a place, don't you say? Xia Yanru is not easy to explain too much, not to mention that she is not good at lying.

"I'm going to discuss this with the rest of the village first." Settling down in this kind of thing, Ying Fengshan is not good at being selfish, even if he has this right, but in the face of Xia Yanru, who is of unknown origin, he would rather spend something to gather several other village cadres to discuss together.

"Of course, if it's convenient, I have to trouble Captain Ying to take me in for a few days first, as long as the household registration can be implemented, there will be no accidents with the food I just said." Xia Yanru nodded, but the settlement problem is not a trivial matter, and she will not push it too hard.

"Comrade Xia, take the liberty of asking, how much food can you get when you say you can get it?" Ying Fengshan licked his chapped lips a little nervously, feeling apprehension and anticipation.

"It should be enough to feed your village." Xia Yanru showed a light smile on her face, she knew that when Ying Fengshan asked this sentence, there was no problem with her household registration problem.

It's not that she wants to take advantage of the fire to rob, but to make reasonable use of resources to get what she wants, which is no problem, whether it is in the last days, or in this unknown space, she believes that food and other materials will always be the best trade.

Obviously, Ying Fengshan, who got Xia Yanru's affirmative answer, was excited, what could be more important than his good people and bad people, there were nearly two hundred people in their village, and seeing that every household had been cut off, if it continued like this, it would be a matter of time before people starved to death.

Speaking of which, the Huperzia Pass is not bad, after all, it is backed by the mountains, there is a deep pool, in the face of severe drought, you can still receive some grain in the autumn, those who are not as geographically located as the Huperzia Pass, there is not much harvest at all in the autumn harvest, except for the public grain, those villages have long been cut off, and I heard that many people died of hunger.

Thinking of this, Ying Fengshan couldn't sit still, hurriedly confessed, and rushed out, even taking care of the stove that was burning in the kitchen, this is a life-saving thing, as the captain of the village, he has the responsibility and obligation to inform other cadres of the news in time.
