Life experience

The low houses, roofs tied with sorghum poles, and cracked floors gave Qu Yaowen the first impression of poverty.

"This is where you have lived since you were a child?" There was a trace of distress in Qu Yaowen's voice, and even though Song Meixiang was not his daughter, he still felt panicked.

At this time, several naked children rushed out of the alley. When they saw the strangers, they all hid curiously, laughing and joking, making a great fuss.

Song Meixiang explained: "People in the village have similar conditions. When the weather is hot, many children don't wear pants to save cloth and water."

"How do you solve the water problem in your village?" Xu Heye asked.

Song Meixiang pointed to a direction in the village and replied crisply: "There is a well over there, which is the only water source in the village. When I was a child, I had to go there to fetch water every day, and I had to run two or three times a day."

"How young are you when you carry water? Where are you, Master Qian?" There was a rare hint of anger in Xu Heye's voice.

Song Meixiang smashed her mouth and replied weakly: "My parents have to go to work. They said that the family does not support idle people. When I was four or five years old, I carried a small bucket to fetch water. When I was young, it was easy to sprinkle water.

, every time I got home and they found that the water was low, they would beat me twice. Later, I would rather run more than pretend to be too busy."

"That's too much!" Xu Heye cursed through gritted teeth.

Qu Yaowen's face was gloomy, and anyone with a discerning eye could detect his anger.

Song Meixiang said: "Why don't we go to the village chief's uncle's house first? I feel more at ease with him here."

Qu Yaowen nodded and followed Song Meixiang's instructions to the village chief's house.

The village chief of Zheshigou is called Song Heping. He is over seventy years old. Years of hard work have made this little old man look extremely lean, and his skin is as dark as that of a non-chief.

Song Heping's eyes lit up when he saw Song Meixiang. He threw the cigarette on the kang and hurriedly put on his shoes and went to the ground, "Girl, why are you back? You didn't even tell me in advance."

Song Meixiang smiled innocently and helped Song Heping sit down, "Uncle, I came back with an uncle this time. I didn't dare to go home, so I had to come to you first."

Song Heping had noticed Qu Yaowen and several others early on, but they were so imposing that Song Heping did not dare to ask any more questions. Then he looked at them strangely and said, "They are"

Qu Yaowen stepped forward and said politely: "Hello, village chief, my name is Qu Yaowen. I came to your village this time mainly to verify some things."

"What's going on?" Song Heping was a little confused. Few outsiders came to their village, and few villagers went out. He couldn't figure out what Qu Yaowen wanted to do with him.

Qu Yaowen looked at Song Meixiang and muttered: "I want to ask about Meixiang."

Song Heping's eyes suddenly widened and he was a little dazed.

Seeing him like that, Qu Yaowen was instantly excited. He forced himself to calm down and asked: "Village Chief, do you know something? I heard Mei Xiang said that her family has a small flower coat, and her parents are not good to her. She is

no."

The implication of Qu Yaowen's words was very obvious. How could Song Heping not hear it? He looked deeply at Qu Yaowen, then looked at Song Meixiang with pity, and sighed, "I didn't expect this! This child went out to study.

You can also reveal your own life experience! Actually, I don’t know much about it. Meixiang’s parents had been married for many years and had no children. The couple went around praying to gods and Buddhas, and even secretly burned incense to find the goddess.

I tried every method, but there was no movement. Later, I met a blind fortune teller in the county town. The blind fortune teller said that the two of them were not destined to have children or grandchildren. The solution was to adopt a lucky child, who might be able to attract a younger brother or younger sister.

The couple was hesitant, thinking that they couldn't have a baby anyway, so if they adopted a child, someone would be able to take care of them until they die. Originally, they only wanted a son, but this kind of thing is not about shopping for groceries, and they are picky.

It would be nice to meet one.

No, the couple brought back a female baby from nowhere. It was not a big deal in the village, but this kind of thing was a big deal in the village.

So I went to see the baby that day. The baby was wrapped in a small flower jacket and was crying loudly because of hunger. It happened that my daughter-in-law had just given birth to the baby and had milk, and she fed her for a few days.

Meixiang's parents never thought that she would actually get pregnant later, so they came to me and asked me to tell the villagers that the child would be their biological child from now on, and not to let the villagers make irresponsible remarks. In order to block the villagers' mouths,

The couple still gritted their teeth and invited the whole village to eat eggs.

They all say that cannibals are short-tongued. From that day on, no one really mentioned this matter. The next year, Meixiang's mother was actually pregnant and gave birth to her younger brother. With the virtues of the couple, they originally planned to throw Meixiang away, or did they?

My old lady went over to persuade her, and when she mentioned the blind fortune teller, the couple was also worried that the son they had finally begged for would be gone, so they kept raising Mei Xiang.

It's just that she wasn't very kind to Mei Xiang. In those days, it was good to have a mouthful of food. If such a young child was thrown away and he had to starve to death outside, we would just turn a blind eye. All I know is

There are so many, if you really want to know how they raised Meixiang, you have to ask them."

As soon as she talked about going home, Song Meixiang couldn't help but shudder, and looked at Song Heping pitifully, "Uncle, they must be very angry that I went to college without telling them. If I go back, will they interrupt me?"

legs?"

Song Heping glanced at Qu Yaowen and patted Song Meixiang's hand reassuringly, "It's okay, it's okay. There are still people protecting you! Come on, old man, come with you. I'll take care of anything. They don't dare to take care of you."

How am I doing?"

"Thank you, uncle." Song Meixiang had tears in her eyes and followed Song Heping.

Qu Yaowen and the others hurriedly followed. As soon as the group entered Song Meixiang's house, Song Meixiang's parents, Song Laiwang Jingui, also rushed back from outside. The two of them must have heard some news, and they yelled angrily as soon as they entered the yard.

"You little bitch hoof, you dare to come back to me, let's see if I don't peel off your skin! Lang Hoo, I let you run, let you run"

Jin Gui wanted to step forward and pull Song Meixiang out, but Qu Yaowen stood directly in front of Song Meixiang.

Jin Gui was extremely angry and pointed at Song Meixiang with trembling hands, "Okay! Even if you run away, you dare to bring a wild man back to me! Song Meixiang, Jin Gui doesn't have a shameless daughter like you! Not yet.

Get over here!"

"Cut your stinky mouth!" Qu Yaowen yelled angrily.

Jin Gui trembled with fright, came to her senses, and rushed towards Qu Yaowen angrily, "You kidnapped my daughter and she screamed at me, I will fight with you."

Qu Yaowen would not be polite to Jin Gui. When Jin Gui rushed towards him, he directly raised his foot and kicked the person far away. "I don't hit women, but I will never let any shrew go! If you dare to act wild with me again,

, I will let you eat the gun barrel!"

When Xu Heye heard this, he knew that Qu Yaowen was so angry that he lost his mind, and he quickly stepped forward to hold Qu Yaowen back.
