Chapter two

Fang Wei is kind-hearted and always takes out money to help poor people. Therefore, he was ridiculed by many people, saying that he is a fake saint. Fang Wei doesn't care about those gossips, but he still does his own way and can calculate as much as he can.

Over time, those who say strange words gradually changed their views on him. They admire Fang Wei from the bottom of their hearts and are willing to date him. A group of friends from all walks of life gathered around him.

Fang Wei has a wide connection in the local area because he has a kind heart and has won people's respect.

Fang Wei thought, whether the young man in front of him would help or not, listen to what he said first, find out the whole story, and then make a decision.

"If you don't have money, you can take the train? It's outrageous." The flight attendant said in a stern tone.

"I really don't have money to buy tickets. My family is very poor. I borrowed all my relatives and friends, but I didn't borrow much money and didn't even get enough travel expenses." The young man explained.

"I have seen many people who say this like you. If you don't make up for the ticket, you must get off the train and hand you over to the station police station for treatment." The train police officer said firmly.

"Comrade, no, uncle, just be fine. Don't drive me out of the car," the young man hurriedly changed his comrade to an uncle and said in a pleading tone. "I really have no money. If I have money, I will definitely buy a supplementary ticket."

After the young man finished speaking, he looked at the train police and the commander in tears. At the same time, he took out a few dry and slightly black wild vegetable buns that his mother had eaten on the road, put them on the dining table and said, "This is what my mother asked me to take on the road to eat, and there is nothing else. If you don't believe it, I can take off my clothes and let you search."

The train conductor was a lesbian in his forties. After listening to the young man's talk, he saw the wild vegetable buns taken out by the young man, and his serious attitude was much more relaxed. The flight attendant was about fifty years old and was a gay man. Looking at the young man who was the same size as his son, crying, he had less fierce appearance just now.

"Where are you going? What are you going to do?" the policeman asked in a gentle tone.

"I went to Lingnan City and heard that it was easy to find a job there. As long as I could endure hardships and work hard, I could make money. As long as I could make money, I could change my family's life. This time I came out and carried the hope of the whole family." The young man replied.

Fang Wei felt that the poor man was really sad, and he had no dignity at all. The scolding came into his ears from time to time. Fang Wei couldn't listen, as if he was humiliated.

"Hello, comrade!" Fang Wei said to the train police.

"Hello! Is there anything wrong, do you need help?" the flight attendant asked politely.

"Thank you! No need." Fang Wei pointed at the young man in front of him and said to the flight attendant; "Did he not buy a ticket?"

"Yes, he didn't buy a ticket. I'm asking about the situation." The flight attendant replied.

When Fang Wei talked to the flight attendant, the young man looked at him with tears in his eyes. Fang Wei didn't think much about it and said to the train attendant, "Can I buy a ticket for him?"

The flight attendant looked at him, turned to look at the young man, then looked back at Fang Wei, and with a suspicious look, it seemed to be examining a liar.

The train crew thought for a minute, and the atmosphere was a little nervous at that time. Perhaps Fang Wei was waiting for the reply, the crew felt it. Perhaps this action surprised him, so he slowly said in a doubtful tone; "Okay, are you really willing to buy tickets for him?"

"I am willing to buy tickets for him!" Fang Wei answered affirmatively.

After hearing Fang Wei's affirmative answer, the train crewman asked the acquiescent of his eyes, and then said to the young man, "I learned about your actual situation and I really don't have money to buy tickets, so I won't do anything else, just fill in the tickets."

The commander nodded to the ticket makers and agreed, and walked away without saying anything.

"You met a kind person today" may be something that the flight attendant often encounters, and they say in a very normal tone when facing the young man; "You might as well thank others quickly."

"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you..." The young man stood up, looked grateful, walked around the dining table and walked to Fang Wei, bowed deeply, and stopped, and kept saying the words "Thank you".

Fang Wei is not the only one who is sympathetic in society and willing to help others. The flight attendant made the correct decision within his ability and did not violate the regulations. When the train conductor agreed to the flight attendant to make the decision, he looked at the young man with pity and showed two passengers sitting next to him who helped the young man speak nice things. These are all good people with compassion. There are still many good people in society, and good people will be rewarded.

In life, when you really encounter obstacles that cannot be overcome, there will still be kind people to help you. A capable person may change the life of a poor person by a small act of kindness.

After the ticketing procedures were completed, Fang Wei pulled the young man to the dining table and sat down. At this time, the passengers who were having breakfast in the dining car, including the dining car waiter, gave him a kind look. The praise in the dining car made Fang Wei feel embarrassed.

The young man looked at Fang Wei, lowered his head restrainedly, not knowing what to do, and was so panicked that he didn't know what to say. Maybe it was Fang Wei's help that helped him get out of the predicament and felt glad, or maybe it was sad for his poverty, or maybe it was because of his poor words and unable to express it in words. He believed that silence was the best response.

The young man was like a child who made a mistake. He kept fiddling with his clothes with both hands, silently lowering his head and not speaking. Perhaps he was infected by him, Fang Wei was speechless.

At this time, the food truck waiter walked up to him and asked, "Comrade, do you need breakfast?"

"Two breakfasts." Fang Wei replied.

Soon, the smiling waiter placed breakfast in front of them and said in standard Mandarin, "Please use it slowly, two."

"Thank you!" Fang Wei answered politely.

After the dining car waiter left, Fang Wei pushed the breakfast in front of the young man and said, "Let's have a meal."

The young man didn't say anything, his face turned slightly red, and with a complex expression of hesitation, he slowly picked up the chopsticks and wiped his tears with his cuffs from time to time.

In order to break the embarrassing situation in front of you, Fang Wei asked, "Where is your hometown?"

"Hexi people." The young man replied.

"What are you doing in Lingnan?" he continued.

"Go and find work." The young man replied.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         �

"There are a few fellow villagers there, and they wrote that the work there is easy to find, and there will be work to do when they go." The young man said.

"What specific work should I do?" he asked.

"What did you do specifically? The letter didn't say it." The young man replied.

"Can you lose weight, do heavy work?" he asked.

"Don't look at me as thin as I'm thin, I have strength. I'm not afraid of suffering and being tired, and I'm not afraid of hard work, as long as I can make money."

The young man continued in a firm tone, "No matter what I do, I can make money. My parents are still waiting for me to earn money and send it home to help me. In a word, if I can't make money, I will never go home, and I will die outside even if I die."

"I am a man, I have such determination, I wish you all your wishes come true." Fang Wei reached out and patted his shoulder, and said as he looked at his hopeful eyes.

Fang Wei and the young man went out for the first time. They had no exact address, so they had to write down their names.

After breakfast, they walked to the junction of the carriage together. The two of them talked a lot. When they mentioned the matter in their hometown, the young man started to talk too much. They were afraid that others would not believe what he said, so they explained first. "You may not believe it when you say it, but I said it all the truth."

His village is in a valley, with dozens of households and more than 200 people in the village. They walk in and out of the mountains and walk in and out of the mountains. They are very remote and do not usually go there. A few outsiders can see a year, and a few people can see collecting mountain goods. The villagers have traditional concepts and are very backward and conservative.

His family of seven people - grandma, father, mother, sister, two younger brothers, including him. The natural conditions are very poor, and some grain is planted in the fields, the yield is not high, there is no other source of income, and life is very difficult.

In their hometown, it is not possible to have no boys at home. Others will be verbally irrelevant and sometimes they will be bullied by others. At that time, he had no children at home, and his parents adopted him in his thirties and regarded him as the jewel in their eyes.

He came to his current home. Two years later, his sister was born, and then his mother gave birth to two younger brothers. The villagers are very superstitious, and they all say that it was because of adopting him that he had younger brothers and sisters.

The birth of his sister and younger brother did not affect his parents, especially his grandmother's love for him. The whole family saved money and allowed him to finish high school.

He graduated from high school and returned to the village from the county town. He worked tirelessly in the fields for two years. He could not dig out anything valuable from the soil, and the family's life became a problem.

Grandma is getting older and thinner year by year. She is so heavy that she cannot see hope. She is repeated year after year, and her parents never stop. She works at home and outside all day, which damages her parents' old and sick body.

Because his family was poor and had no money to see a doctor, his minor illness became a serious illness. Seeing his parents who were sick and had to work in the fields, his heart was as if they were hurt.

The hard work of his parents throughout his life did not change the poverty of the family. He returned to the village for two years and worked hard in the fields, but his poor life at home did not improve.

Only then did he realize that there was no trace of hope to stay in this barren and water-deficient land.

Poverty is not terrible. The most terrible thing is that it cannot change poverty through lasting and arduous work.

Working from sunrise and resting from sunset, relying on the weather for generations to make a living, living a poor and backward life, he can no longer bear it. He swears that his life will change and let his grandmother and parents live a good life.

Among the children at home, he is the eldest. In order to repay his parents' raising, he is unshirkable to the family responsibilities and should be borne by him.

His hometown is located in the border area between the Loess Plateau and the desert, with hills crisscrossing. When the strong wind hits, yellow sand flies all over the sky, covering the sun. The land is barren, with many people and few land, drought and rain, and the natural conditions are very harsh.

During drought, even grass does not grow in the field, let alone crops. The seeds are sown into the field, and in the end they cannot even harvest the seeds.

When there is a lot of rain, there is still some harvest. After leaving the seeds, the remaining grain is not enough for the whole family to eat. They also have to go hungry from time to time and rely on digging wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger.

When he said this, the young man shook his head helplessly, with his empty and confused eyes looking out the car window.
