A few days later.

Li Wu went out with Hu Manman and Chen Xiaoyan for a walk around the night market.

On the way back, Chen Xiaoyan said that she wanted to go on an outing with Man Man, and asked Li Wu if he had time and if he wanted to go together.

Li Wuyi heard that of course there is time, there is time if there is no time, time is the same thing as some good thing, there will still be crowding!

The next day, Li Wu picked up his second daughter at the school gate, bought several large bags full of food and drink along the way, and drove to the suburbs.

Since he went out for an outing, safety must be taken into account, so Li Wu called Chang Wei and Luo Wei to drive behind.

Li Wu took his two daughters and sat on his newly bought Honda Civic.

After driving for more than an hour on the mountain road, this hurt Li Wu, a novice driver, but fortunately, Li Wu was calm and calm along the way, basically without danger, and finally arrived at the destination safely.

This is a quaint small village, Hu Manman and his classmates also heard from their classmates, saying that although it is remote, the villagers are simple and enthusiastic, and the scenery is also natural, unlike the city, which is all artificially built.

They came this time to prepare to go to a place called Qixia Mountain.

If you want to go up the mountain, you need to pass through the village, and there is only a narrow dirt road in the village, and the car can't drive into it at all, so a few people can only walk up the mountain.

Parking on the side of the road, a few people got out of the car and walked towards the village.

Walking to the entrance of the village, there are a few low earthen houses and wooden houses in front of you, and there are a few slightly better ones in the distance, which are made of red bricks, all of which are three or two rooms, which are in sharp contrast with the twenty or thirty floors in the city.

From time to time, the sound of children frolicking came from the door of the hut, and after walking for a while, several forks in the road appeared, and an old man sat in front of the door of a hut in front of him.

Li Wu stepped forward and asked with a smile: "Hello, old man, I want to ask, which way to go to Qixia Mountain?" ”

The old lady smiled kindly, but she didn't say a word, she looked at Li Wu and the others with a smile on her face, then pointed to her ears and waved her hand.

Li Wu and the others were a little embarrassed.

At this time, a little boy not far away said, "Are you going to Qixia Mountain?" The road on the right keeps going forward, don't turn and keep walking, go to the end and then turn to the left, you can see Qixia Mountain. Xiaohong's grandmother is mute, and her ears are deaf, so she can't hear you. ”

Li Wuzhong is like a mountain and is relieved, otherwise there will always be some weird feelings! He took two packs of snacks and handed them to the grandmother and the little boy, who was very happy and said thank you uncle.

Li Wuzi laughed at himself, I'm only eighteen, and I'll be an uncle so soon!

A few people walked along the path to Qixia Mountain.

As soon as I reached the foot of the mountain, I saw a little girl on the side of the road, about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a slightly salallow face, her hair tied up casually, wearing a blue blouse, which looked a little large, tied to the two corners with rope, and two small holes in the knees of her trousers, and her worn-out shoes were covered with mud.

The little girl carried a shabby basket containing small sweet potatoes and a lot of wild onions, as well as some wild vegetables that she didn't know.

When the little girl saw Li Wu and the others, her eyes were a little panicked and dodgy, and she looked at it in fear, so she didn't dare to look at it again.

Li Wu couldn't help but feel a little strange, although the little boy in the village just now was not well dressed, but at least it fit completely and cleanly, but the little girl in front of him looked too sloppy and cold, right?

Several people came to the little girl, and Hu Manman asked softly, "Little sister, what are you doing here?" ”

The little girl didn't seem to be so afraid of her, and said in a low voice, "I'm carrying the food home." ”

Hu Manman looked at the things in the back basket and asked curiously: "Are these all grown by your family?" ”

The little girl shook her head slightly, "They don't want to pick it up in other people's fields." ”

A few people were slightly stunned, no wonder this sweet potato is so small, it turned out that someone else didn't want it or left it exposed.

Hu Manman asked again: "What about your parents?" Why are you the only one here, aren't you afraid? ”

Little girl: "Don't be afraid. ”

As for her parents' questions, she didn't answer them.

After a pause, the little girl suddenly remembered that her mother had said that children must be able to speak in order to be likable, and if adults ask you, you must answer truthfully, and it is an impolite behavior not to answer others.

So he said: "My parents are dead, and my brother and I are the only ones at home." ”

Several people were stunned for an instant.

Li Wu looked at the little girl carefully, and the little girl was much calmer than at the beginning.

Li Wu motioned for Lao Luo to come over, took a few bags of snacks and put them in the basket on the little girl's back, the little girl saw that it was eaten, and her face couldn't help showing a happy expression, but she immediately became entangled again, and then seemed to have made a decision: "Uncle, can I just have one pack?" ”

Li Wu couldn't help but be a little strange: "Why is it only a pack, these are all given to you!" ”

The little girl whispered, "Mom said that you can't just ask for other people's things. But I want a pack for my brother! ”

Li Wu thought for a while and said to the little girl, "I'll give you a few more packs, can we go to your house to have a look?" ”

The little girl hesitated for a moment, looked at the pile of snacks, and nodded.

In front of a dilapidated wooden house in the village, the little girl pushed open the door and shouted: "Xiao Yuan, come out quickly, there is something delicious!" ”

When I opened the door, a musty smell rushed straight into my nose, and the room was very messy, a bed, and the quilt on the bed was a little yellowed and messy.

One table was piled with some miscellaneous items, and one table had a few black bowls.

Li Wu went over to take a look, the rice made of corn kernels mixed with potatoes, and a plate of fried wild onions.

Li Wu's nose was sour, and Hu Manman and Chen Xiaoyan were already wiping their tears.

There are two photos of a man and a woman above the bed, and it should be the little girl's parents depending on the situation.

The little girl saw that her brother was not in the room, so she ran to the door and shouted her brother's name.

It wasn't until a voice in the distance responded that I was relieved.

Li Wu came to the little girl's side: "You haven't told your uncle yet, what's your name?" ”

"My name is Li Rong'er, and my brother's name is Li Xiaoyuan."

Li Rong'er said in a low voice.

Li Wu nodded: "My surname is also Li, so you can call me Uncle Li in the future." ”

Then he pointed to the two photos above the bedside: "Is this your mom and dad?"

Li Rong'er nodded and didn't speak, and Li Wu didn't want to make her sad, so she didn't ask any more.

At this time, a little boy ran not far away, Li Rong'er hurriedly ran over and took the little boy's hand and said, "Xiao Yuan, this is Uncle Li, call Uncle Li quickly!" ”

Xiao Yuan's clothes are also very shabby, but his spirit looks good, and it can be seen that Li Rong'er takes good care of him.

Xiao Yuan was a little timid, but he still screamed softly,

"Uncle Lee."

Li Wu looked at Xiao Yuan and smiled at him.

took two more bags of snacks and handed them to Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan didn't answer, glanced at his sister, saw that his sister didn't speak, and hurriedly grabbed them, couldn't wait to open them and take a bite, and then thought of something, and handed the snacks to Li Rong'er.

Li Rong'er slapped him: "Have you thanked Uncle Li?" I want to thank Uncle Li in advance, my sister has forgotten what she taught you? ”

Xiao Yuan chewed in his mouth and said with a smile: "Thank you, Uncle Li!" ”
