At this time, Lijiang is still only Lijiang, not the developed tourist city, and there are no messy nicknames, the folk customs are very simple, and the scenery is also very beautiful.

Most of the towns they passed along the way were small towns, which were worse than in Lijiang, which was like the cosmopolitan city of Tieling.

They ate artichoke along the way, and then they couldn't stand it, so they tried their best to make a little instant noodles, but they also ate it to their stomachs.

Lijiang has been an important town on the Ancient Tea Horse Road since ancient times, and it also brings together the delicacies of southern Yunnan, such as chicken bean jelly, Naxi grilled fish, Lijiang baba, and pork ribs hot pot.

"It's been a month and a half, and my stomach finally feels what is delicious and what is called food." Zhong Yuemin said happily: "It is said that it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, after this blessing, my appetite has become tricky, when I used to be a soldier, roasted potatoes dipped in salt, it is simply a supreme delicacy, if you encounter wild survival training, the insects feel delicious." ”

The little girl who was traveling with me covered her mouth and said, "Brother Zhong, can you not say it, I just ate enough, you let me have a good aftertaste, how disgusting it is to eat insects." ”

"The little girl's family is so hypocritical." Zhong Yuemin smiled and said, "I'll be hungry for you for three days, and I will see you eat everything." ”

Jiang Hua smiled and said: "Little girl, let me tell you, we are now in southern Yunnan, and there is a saying that there are three mosquitoes in one dish in southern Yunnan since ancient times. And there is also a traditional insect feast, scorpions, centipedes, grasshoppers are all delicious. ”

Zhong Yuemin continued: "When you arrive in the provincial capital of southern Yunnan, I will invite you to eat a worm feast." ”

Zhong Yueming and Jiang Hua's words, let the three or four little girls around chase them and fight, that is a disgusting insect, how can you put it in your mouth and eat it?

"What a beautiful view." A girl said with emotion: "This is a pristine scenery, and you can't see it in the capital." ”

"You know what? Pristine ecology is actually synonymous with poverty and undeveloped. Jiang Hua said with a smile: "The poorer the place, the more pristine the scenery, we look very good, and the locals don't necessarily like it." ”

The little girl stuck out her tongue and hid behind her sister.

As soon as they were too full, they strolled along the road to eat their children.

There is not a small stall on the side of the road, and the stalls are either elderly people or children who are a little older.

Passing by a stall selling wild mushrooms, the owner was a thin little girl holding an infant child.

Jiang Hua shook his head: "This is the meaning of our research this time, you see, such a young child, she has to bear the burden of the family, and she has to take care of her younger brothers and sisters, how can she have the time and money to receive education?" ”

A woman next to her interjected, "This is not his brother, this is his son." ”

"Impossible." Jiang Hua and a little girl on their side shook her head: "She looks like she is only thirteen or fourteen years old at most." Where did the son come from? ”

"She is sixteen years old this year, she has been malnourished since she was a child, so she looks small, she turned out to be my student, she dropped out of school last year and went home to get married, and she just gave birth to a son this year." The woman who interjected said: "Her grades turned out to be the top two in the class, and she should have a good future, but the family is really poor, and she changed his brother's relatives." ”

The little girl's stall owner looked at the woman and lowered her head a little embarrassedly, and whispered, "Teacher Zhang, do you want fungi?" ”

Teacher Zhang sighed: "Give it all to me." ”

After speaking, Mr. Zhang laboriously took out a handkerchief from his trouser pocket, opened the handkerchief package, and there were several zero tickets inside, one piece, two pieces, five pieces, and only one piece of ten.

The little girl wraps the mushrooms on the ground. He handed it to Mr. Zhang, but he didn't reach for the money.

"Take it, you don't want money, your son has to have money to support, your life shouldn't be like this."

The little girl hugged her child and wept as she walked towards the outside of Lijiang City.

The teacher picked up the fungus and walked to the other end of the street.

"Teacher Zhang, please wait." Jiang Hua shouted, "Can we talk?" ”

Teacher Zhang looked at Jiang Hua and said with a smile: "You are not locals, or even from southern Yunnan, what are you doing in Lijiang?" Traveling? ”

"How do you know we're not from southern Yunnan?"

Teacher Zhang smiled and said, "Your Mandarin doesn't even have a southern Yunnan accent. ”

Zhong Yuemin said with a smile: "That's right, we are from the capital. ”

"What a place in the capital. Before I supported the frontier, I used to transit in the capital. ”

Just this sentence made everyone awe-inspired.

Teacher Zhang said with a smile: "I am from Northeast China, and I came here with my sister to support the construction in 74 years, and it has been 25 years now. ”

"Twenty-five years is not easy, how many twenty-five years can a person have in his life?" Jiang Hua said admiringly: "Listening to your words just now, you seem to be a teacher. ”

"Yes, I've been a teacher for more than ten years."

A little girl stood up and said, "Hello Mr. Zhang, we are a charitable organization in Beijing, and this time we are here to inspect the education situation in the southwest region. ”

"It's a good thing to do charity." Teacher Zhang said with a smile: "Education in the southwest region is too backward and needs further support. ”

"So we wanted to talk to you." Jiang Hua said to the girl: "Xiaofen, you support Teacher Zhang, Teacher Zhang is not in good health." ”

The little girl didn't have such good eyesight as Jiang Hua and Zhong Yuemin, so she sighed blankly.

"I didn't see Mr. Zhang carrying a medicine bag in his hand." Zhong Yuemin hurriedly said: "And look at it, Teacher Zhang's face is not very good." ”

Immediately, two little girls supported Teacher Zhang, one left and one right, and another girl took the bag in Teacher Zhang's hand.

"You don't have to hold me like that, I can walk."

Although Teacher Zhang did this, the two little girls still helped Teacher Zhang steadily.

"Let's find a place to sit."

I found a snack bar and told the boss, the boss was very polite to let a few people sit, they were embarrassed to sit in vain, and asked for some snacks and tea.

"Teacher Zhang, we came all the way from western Guangdong, which is shocking." Zhong Yuemin shook his head: "So we want to talk to people like you to see how we can support local education." ”

Teacher Zhang sighed: "The reason is very simple, in the final analysis, it is one word, poor, the poorer the more ignorant, the more ignorant the poorer, originally knowledge is the only way for them to change their fate, but because of ignorance and poverty, they easily give up." ”

The girls were sentimental and sighed with Teacher Zhang.

Zhong Yuemin smiled and said, "What's the sigh, aren't we here to change all this?" ”

Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a reward
