Chapter 114: It's Poverty
This place is backed by a mountain, surrounded by lush greenery, and there is a stream next to it, the water is crystal clear, and it is a great place with beautiful scenery and beautiful mountains and rivers.
If there is anything bad about it, it is poor.
Most of the people in the village are elderly, women and children who keep their families, and there are almost no men, who have gone out to work to earn money.
If you want to get rich, build the road first, Lin Xiaowan came in, she was dizzy and dizzy from bumps all the way, and she felt like vomiting when she didn't get motion sickness, so she knew that there was nothing wrong with this.
Lin Xiaowan carried her own drawing board on her back, her suitcase didn't have many things, and it was okay to lift it.
Compared with Gu Yuwu, there are actually more things, after all, she came to take pictures of Lin Qing this time, so she brought a lot of shooting props, and most of them were very heavy.
The driver is from Gu Yuwu's family, and after finding out that he couldn't go directly to the destination, he consciously went to help with the luggage.
Lin Qing stretched out his hand, stopped the driver's movements, and took the initiative to take the suitcase into his hand: "I'll come." ”
He pushed one in one hand, and even Lin Xiaowan's also took it, Lin Xiaowan was adjusting his clothes that were a little awkward after putting the sketchpad on his back, and when he saw him carrying two suitcases, he strode away and hurriedly chased after him.
Lin Xiaowan: "No, no, I'm not sinking, I'll take it myself." ”
How embarrassing it is to trouble others as soon as this comes up, Gu Yuwu didn't expect him to be so positive, and said: "Yes, it's too heavy for you to take two alone." ”
Lin Qing didn't care: "It's okay, it's not important to me." ”
He didn't let go, but said: "You don't have to feel embarrassed, you came to help me take a photo for free and fulfilled my wish, and I have nothing to thank, just helped you get a luggage." ”
There were a few steps in front of him, and he said, "The steps are narrow here, be careful with your feet," and he lifted his hands and lifted the two suitcases with ease.
Lin Xiaowan didn't expect that a man who looked so thin would have so much strength.
Her gaze fell on the man's arm, who was thin but not weak, and his arms and legs were full of tight muscles.
The group got out of the car and walked for a long time, the village was about early to eat, and after walking for a while, you could see the old people sitting on the pony and talking together, holding a fan in their hands, which is almost invisible now, and fluttering mosquitoes one by one.
The summer heat has dissipated, and now in September, there is a refreshing breeze after sunset, which is indeed very suitable for cooling.
Lin Xiaowan was keenly aware that the center of the discussion among these old ladies was them.
But also, a village in the twilight of its years suddenly has a new face, and anyone has to talk about it, let alone an old lady who has nothing to do and loves to talk about the short family in the family.
Lin Xiaowan thought that if she lived here, she would be under great pressure, and she couldn't stand such a surrounded life.
Just like when I was in the North City.
She quietly looked up at Lin Qing who was walking silently in front of her, he had no expression on his face, a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and she couldn't tell what he thought, nor could she see whether he liked or disliked this kind of inquiring gaze and all kinds of nonsense guesses.
Anyway, Lin Xiaowan didn't like it, although they were all strangers she didn't know, but it was still difficult to have a good face when she vaguely heard their random speculations and listened to their discussions.
Lin Qing's house is in a very close position, this is his family's ancestral home, there are chickens and ducks in the front yard, and a big yellow dog is leashed, and there is a small piece of vegetable furrow next to it.
In addition to the vegetable bed, there are many flowers on the side, which are lush and particularly lush.
When the big yellow dog heard someone approaching, he immediately barked, the chain he dragged rattled, the door was not locked, Lin Qing stretched out his foot and gently pushed it open, and said to the two: "There is some chaos at home." ”
As soon as he entered the door, he first blasted a few words at the big yellow dog with an unknown tone of aid, Lin Xiaowan couldn't understand what he said, anyway, the big yellow dog that had been barking stopped his voice, only the tail was still wagging from time to time.
It doesn't look fierce, Lin Xiaowan tentatively got closer, it didn't bark anymore, and its tail was more joyful.
Lin Qing saw that she was interested in the dog, and said: "Rhubarb has a good temper, you can play with him for a while, but don't feed him something to eat, it is not serious, in case it bites you, it will not be good." ”
There is not even a health clinic in this town, and if you are bitten, it is very troublesome to get an injection.
Lin Xiaowan got permission, so he tentatively touched the dog's head, but he didn't dare to get too close, after all, he had never raised a dog, although he was very interested in small animals, but he was still a little afraid of being inexperienced.
Gu Yuwu: "Your yard is really well maintained." ”
Lin Qing put down his things: "Is it okay for the two of you to live in one room?" ”
Although the small courtyard looks like the area is not small, there are not many places to live, the middle two-story small tulou, the first floor is the living room and partial house, and the second floor is Lin Qing's own room.
On the left side of the yard is the kitchen and warehouse, and there is really not much to live in.
Gu Yuwu went out and asked Lin Xiaowan: "Xiaowan baby, can you sleep in the same bed with me at night?" ”
Lin Xiaowan had already squatted next to the chicken coop to look at the live chickens, and she was still carrying a sketchpad on her back: "Okay." ”
Lin Xiaowan was very curious about everything here, looking at the chicken nest and looking at the ducks, and after a while, she went to count how many small peppers had grown.
Lin Qing came out, took a pole and a bucket from under the wall and walked out, Lin Xiaowan immediately asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
Lin Qing stopped: "I'll go fetch water." ”
There is no running water in the village, so you have to fetch water for daily life, cooking and washing.
touched Lin Xiaowan's knowledge blind spot again, and she stood up suddenly: "Can I join you?" ”
Lin Qing was stunned for a moment: "Yes." ”
He hesitated: "You put the things down first, right?" ”
He has been carrying it since he got out of the car, he doesn't know what this little girl is carrying, but he suspects that she is not tired like this?
Lin Xiaowan almost forgot that she was still carrying a sketchpad on her back: "Then you wait for me, I'll put it down and come right away." ”
As she spoke, she trotted into the house, found the room where Gu Yuwu was, and hurriedly put down her things, not forgetting to explain: "I'm going to fetch water with Lin Qing." ”
Gu Yuwu saw her come in in a hurry, jumped up and ran away, shook her head and smiled, and bowed her head to reply to the message.
[Gu Yuwu: Your little baby has arrived, now follow the watch to carry water, the signal here is not good, I'll tell her when she comes back. 】
She was sending a message to Huo Zheng, Huo Zheng had received the news that Lin Xiaowan was going to walk in at the entrance of the village, so there was no movement, and he couldn't get through on the phone, so he was afraid that something would go wrong, so he found Gu Yuwu's side.
