After this incident, the staff dormitory could not live in itself. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

A few soldiers didn't have anything to take, so they left the dock directly, Sergeant Wang Rong has a sister who is married here, lives in an urban village, and asked for medicine to buy cheaper before, so he got out at this time, and took a few people over to settle down: "Live in a hotel, definitely search, there are more branches." ”

Ji Lun looked at Little Helen and nodded without objection, this sergeant Wang Rong is old, a veteran in his thirties, although he lacks the spirit of adventure, but he is still calm in doing things, and his execution is not bad.

In the evening, I arrived at Wang Rong's sister's family, which is not far from the city center, very poor, with the expansion of the city and lost the field, there is no compensation at this time, and there is no other skill except farming, so I rely on the male owner to walk the streets and alleys to pull the rickshaw to make a living, raising a family of three, the little boy is only four years old, according to Wang Rong, there was a big brother before, and he was killed by the foreigner's boat when he went down to the river to fish...... and died in vain.

"So I don't think my sister's family will betray us. Wang Rong said.

Ji Lun nodded, didn't splash him with cold water, just observed the family...... But it's also very hospitable.

Wang Rong's brother-in-law had seen a lot of guests in the car, and he could see that Ji Lun's clothes and temperament were not ordinary people, he was a bit of an officer who came down from the battlefield, and four men with an obvious soldier's style, so he consciously gave up the room, and he took his wife and son to the neighbor next door to borrow it.

"Isn't this very good?" Sergeant Sun Jin pushed his glasses, he had a feeling that a dove was occupying a magpie's nest, and there was also a little fear in the attitude of the master's family, which made him a little unaccustomed to reading.

Wang Rong said: "Normally, our family has also received relatives who fled the famine before...... Uh, I'll give you an analogy. ”

"Are we really in trouble...... The whole country is in trouble, let alone us. Ji Lun didn't mind the collapse of the status quo, these were only temporary, and he didn't say anything, and said to Liu Lin: "You go to the vegetable market that we saw on the way here, buy half a catty of pig's head meat, come back and give it to the master's house, and send it directly to the next door." ”

Liu Lin took the money and ran out, Sun Jin thought about it, and suddenly said, "Oh, yes, you have to make sure that the neighbor next door will not betray you." ”

Ji Lun smiled: "Then how much money are you going to take to buy the entire village?"

"Uh......"

Ji Lun didn't dwell on this question, and asked a few other people, it turns out that this kind of reception of refugees and relatives is common in the countryside of this era, that is to say...... Normal and does not raise suspicion.

As a result of the melee, some of the empire's traditional public works were in disrepair, coupled with land annexation, foreign invasion, economic blood drawing, and population drawing, which led to a continuous decline in the resistance of the countryside to risks, and more and more natural and man-made disasters in various places - these newspapers rarely reported on them, but the people were clearly aware of it, and had their own ways to struggle to survive.

The environment is still a rural earthen house, several rooms are leaking, the master bedroom is slightly better, but the walls are damp, the room that is temporarily used as a guest room is obviously stacked with sundries, and there are cobwebs on the roof and in the corner, and a few soldiers are not surprised, so they will clean up the master bedroom room and repair the gaps, so as not to aggravate Ji Lun's injury by leaking wind and cold at night.

Liu Lin bought pig's head meat and sent it to Wang Rong's brother-in-law's family, who lived next door.

didn't wait for them to rest, while it was still dark, the soldiers were still working on the dock these days, and Ji Lun took them to clean up in the room, chop firewood in the yard, fetch water at the wellhead and fill the water tank, and feed the chickens and ducks in the corner......

The villagers passing by at the gate of the courtyard looked different, they knew the news that Wang Rong's brother-in-law was a soldier and came to settle down, and understood the approximate identity of these people.

After a while, Ji Lun took the soldiers to help other houses in the village, but the villagers could not stop them, and they remained silent, and the traditional habit was always cautious and cautious about abnormal things.

Little Helen had nothing to do, bored and holding the little white cat, shaking the rattle for a while.

Children from far and near looked timidly at this side, neatly dressed and snow-white little girls, in their eyes, they were simply from other worlds, and did not dare to approach...... After realizing this situation, little Helen remembered what the teacher said today, so she ran over with a rattle and sent it to a little girl led by a woman: "Here you go." ”

"Ah......" The girl was startled, looked at the rattle in her hand in surprise and joy, looked at the girl in front of her, thanked her, and ran to show off with the children.

So the rattle sounded in this forgotten corner of the city, and there was no level that little Helen could shake the rattle herself to shake the music of fate, but the children were shaking and playing with themselves.

Dinner was invited by the old village chief to settle at his house, and the meal was relatively rich.

At the dinner table of the village banquet, not only the old village chief, but also several leading figures in the village, of different ages, but all of them have relatively good reputation and ability in the village......

Wang Rong, Sun Jin, Liu Lin, and Ji An were still a little restrained, there were many big girls and little girls peeking at them outside the door, Ji Lun chatted with the village chief as usual, and learned about the situation of the village, some difficulties, the shortcomings of the parents, and some recent situations of each family in the city.

When he said goodbye, the old man sighed: "I have never seen a chief like you in my life. ”

Ji Lun nodded: "It's just a matter of duty." ”

"It's not easy. If all the soldiers of the world were like you...... Why worry that the country is not prosperous, and foreigners do not retreat. With tears in his eyes, the old village chief lived on crutches, and stared at their backs in the dim light of the street lamp......

Ji Lun looked back and still saw the old man's rickety figure watching, until the figure melted into the tiny light.

The four soldiers were a little inexplicably heavy, but Ji Lun didn't say much, relying on this, it was just the surface, and there was not much to learn from it.

............

Night

After Ji Lun finished washing, the male and female hosts of the neighbor's house next door brought a piece of cooked pork head meat, and two plates of peanuts, which they had planted in the back of the house.

"Big brother and sister-in-law, you are too polite. Guillen thanked him, put the plate on the outside table, and sent them out.

When he came back, he opened the curtain and entered the master bedroom of the inner room, and said to Little Helen, who was holding the little white cat: "You have practiced this lesson very well...... Knowing how to share, you have learned to exchange one step further, and you see that you later take them to play and give them each a thing, what is it?"

"Rings. Little Helen shook an old grenade ring on her finger and looked serious: "But they are all poor, what can I get in exchange?"

Guillon: "......"

It's also a shame that the villagers didn't know it, they only knew that it was metal and regarded it as a valuable thing, and they didn't recognize it, otherwise they would have to be scared to death when they saw the children playing with this......

Looking at little Helen's eagerness to be praised, Ji Lun did not correct the discrepancies in small details, and replied: "What you can exchange is not necessarily tangible money or items, but also intangible things...... Today you have become the king of children, and tomorrow you can let children help you find out all kinds of news in the city...... You can choose people who are capable, willing to be motivated, willing to listen to you, and even use them to negotiate with the teacher - assuming that the teacher is simply interested in you, the teacher can help them contact the newspaper and get a job as a newsboy...... For teachers, what they get is the most honest eyes of children, and there are a lot of children who wander around the streets and alleys every day, and no one will pay attention to whether they are organized, and although it takes time to reach the limit of network expansion, it is also used for temporary reference in the short term. ”

"Got it!"

Little Helen was very excited, she felt that she had learned another lesson, and she must make sure that the teacher was satisfied: "I will be the brightest eye of the teacher, so that the whole city cannot escape the teacher's sight, until the teacher finds the teacher's aunt." ”

"Where did you learn to call ...... relationship?"

Ji Lun sneered, touched her hands on her big black eyes, took off the spell crystal contact lenses in light ink camouflage, and massaged them around the sockets of her ice blue eyes for a while, saving her from the fatigue of wearing contact lenses, and finally said: "Okay, teacher's most beautiful eyes, you have to go to bed early, this age of long body, you need to sleep......"

Little Helen lay under the quilt, watching the teacher lift the door curtain, and the tall back disappeared into the oil light outside, before closing her ice-blue eyes and smiling on her fair and pink face.

............

When Guillen came out, several soldiers were outside.

"Sir, ...... to-day," they stopped talking, looked excited, and did not know where to speak—it was evident that if they had not spoken to them, they would not have been able to sleep at night.

Ji Lun didn't want to affect little Helen's sleep, beckoned them to go up to the attic, and sat down on the table: "All sit, all sit." Eat some mats first...... What's the matter, Sun Shusheng, you don't like rough food?"

"How dare you. Sun Jin waved his hand again and again.

"That's Xiao Liu, which girl did you fancy at the door, patronizing and secretly sending autumn waves with her?" Ji Lun asked a young man again.

Liu Lin's face turned red and shook his head: "There is nothing to do." ”

The two older soldiers laughed in understanding, and the table was very shabby.

Under the dim oil lamp in the attic, a little pig's head meat, two plates of peanuts, four bottles of rice wine, no cups, four soldiers drank here, and smoked the cigarettes handed by Ji Lun, and a room full of wine mixed with smoke...... Guillen doesn't drink, but he smokes.

After three rounds of drinking, Sun Jin pushed his glasses and said, "Sir, I think of a little ...... You asked me before how much money you want to buy the whole village, it is not enough, but people's hearts are priceless, and these can allow us to live here. ”

"Hmm. Guillen exhaled a puff of smoke and killed the vampire mist buff, and the cough had subsided in a few days, and the four soldiers didn't know that he couldn't smoke, and he didn't say anything.

Ji Case, who has been silent, said: "It's a pity that it's an urban village, we can't get a foothold, and it will be in vain after that." ”

"It's hard to think like this, you will never be ......satisfied," Ji Lun smiled and said: "Looking at it from another perspective, we are like this because we are such an army, not expecting the villagers to repay us, just say that the meal just now, and even the invisible trust, have they all been repaid for our maintenance?"

Several soldiers looked at each other, a little sneering. (To be continued.) )
