As soon as he came up, he saw Yujiao at the spring.
Usually people in the village come here to carry some water back if they don't go down the mountain, but Yujiao obviously didn't come here to carry water. She didn't even bring a bucket, she just squatted by the spring and looked at the water inside.
.
After climbing up, Han Qi clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Yujiao, do you want to look in the mirror?"
Yujiao turned around when she heard Han Qi's voice and started to laugh when she saw Han Qi. Han Qi felt warm in her heart. She was like a hide-and-seek. She was the one hiding, and Yujiao was the one looking for her.
It seemed like it took a long time to finally find Han Qi.
He walked over and stood next to Yujiao, and rubbed Yujiao's hair affectionately.
The spring water was clear, and the appearance of two people appeared, so Yujiao was really fascinated by her appearance just now?
Little girls aged fourteen or fifteen also begin to love beauty.
Han Qi felt a little emotional and looked at Yujiao carefully.
This little girl is indeed the most beautiful in their family and has a clean face. It can be seen that her mother and Nan Yanzi love her very much and don't let her do too much work.
"Why are you here?" Han Qi asked.
Yujiao pointed at Han Qi.
"Me?" Han Qi also pointed at himself and wondered: "You came to see me? Why?"
She shook her head.
"Forget it, let's go back."
Han Qi pulled her forward, suddenly thought of something, and took out Dove from his pocket:
"This is for you to eat."
It was true that the backpack was full of fruit candies, but they were distributed to all the children, and since Yujiao and Nan Yanzi were both of their own, Han Qi had of course prepared some special treatment for them.
Is this chocolate?
She had seen others eat it.
Yujiao squeezed the chocolate and held Han Qi with the other hand. She was very happy. Walking behind Han Qi made her heart soar.
Is this how my brother feels?
Walking into the village, there were many children who came to watch. Han Qi was not as embarrassed as he was when he was surrounded yesterday. He bent down slightly and asked in an friendly tone: "Do you want to go to school?"
"think!"
"No, dad said people who study have no future."
"Study is the only way to be successful. Brother Habib went out to study!"
They all started talking in dialect, and Han Qi started to feel dizzy again.
Han Qi was not afraid of not being able to understand. He was afraid that sometimes he could understand what others said, but sometimes he could not understand them at all. He quickly shouted: "Okay, okay, I already know. This is for you."
.”
He opened his backpack, and a child handed out a handful of candies.
The children ran away happily after getting the candies, and called their friends to come here to get candies. Fortunately, Han Qi was well prepared. He first gave a handful to the right person, and then found the children he liked.
A little more.
But the ones Han Qi likes are all little girls.
I have to say that at this stage of childhood, girls are much cuter than naughty boys.
Yujiao kept pulling Han Qi and wanted to go back. She was heartbroken when she saw Han Qi turning the candy into sand. Their family had never been so wealthy.
Han Qi was dragged for a long distance, and then he understood Yujiao's thoughts and said: "Wait a minute, Yujiao, take me to your village chief first."
Yujiao paused and pulled Han Qi to walk in another direction.
They came to a very ordinary-looking house, still made of wood as the main body. Han Qi was familiar with this kind of building, but few people lived in such buildings outside. Even the countryside was made of brick and stone.
.
There is a sign at the door to distinguish this place from the surrounding houses.
Huili County Gaoluzhai Branch Committee
The door was open, so when I walked in, I saw the village chief who I had seen in the morning sorting oranges in the yard.
In fact, to be precise, they should be orange, they are quite big.
A stack of boxes weighs about seventy or eighty kilograms. There are more than a dozen baskets here. Some were just picked today, and some were picked a few days ago. There is no doubt that they are piled here to rot together because it is difficult to take out.
.
The two baskets carried out by the two sisters yesterday are still in the cave at the foot of the mountain.
The family discussed it last night and decided to ask Nan Yanzi to go down the mountain and ask again today. If the boss still insists on charging a few cents, then sell it. A few cents per catty is at least better than not selling it at all.
Han Qi said he wanted to help but was refused.
The village chief heard the sound, stood up and saw Han Qi and the others, and happily invited them in.
"Come in and sit down. Xiao Yujiao, please come in too."
The village chief put the cigarette to his ears and enthusiastically brought Han Qi into the house.
The living room here has been remodeled. There are four tables and twelve chairs in the small living room. However, the tables and chairs in this room are much better than those in Nan Yanzi's home. They should be sold from outside and then brought to the mountain.
Come to assemble, there are party emblems and national flags on the wall, and a thick military coat is hung on one side.
The village chief and Han Qi sat down face to face, with Yujiao sitting next to Han Qi.
"I didn't see you this morning. Did you go out?"
"Yes." Han Qi nodded, "I went out to contact the Huaxia Power Grid Company and reported to them the situation in Gaolu Village. Now they have decided to rebuild the road here in the first half of this year and connect Gaolu Village with electricity.
.”
"Huaxia Power Grid?"
The village chief obviously knew about this company. Over the years, he had visited the county many times to provide water and electricity for Gaolu Village.
But is what Han Qi is telling him true now? Is it a joke?
He has traveled many times, so he also knows that the biggest reason for the problem of electrification in Gaolu Village is that it is impossible to transport tools. After all, there is no direct road here, and even demolition of mountains to build roads is not feasible, because the village is originally located on a mountain.
High on the mountain.
No matter how much you explode, you can't make a way out.
"Are you telling the truth?" The village chief frowned.
It's really hard to believe.
Han Qi affirmed: "It's true, they have already replied to me."
Seeing that the village chief was still doubtful, he said:
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Han Qi. I am a traveler. I can also be considered a star. I have more than 20 million fans on the Internet, so I sent a message on the Internet. People all over the country
It can be seen that perhaps it is because of this that Huaxia Power Grid made such a decision."
Traveler, celebrity, with more than 20 million fans?
The well-informed village chief quickly understood the importance of the matter.
He has to go down the mountain frequently, and he knows how influential celebrities are nowadays. If a celebrity really tells his fans about such a place, then all kinds of help should be coming soon.
"Then, will there be donations?"
Han Qi was stunned for a moment: "This is possible, right?"
How did he know this? Even if everyone wants to donate some money to help the people in Gaolu Village, there must be a place to donate.
I don’t know if anyone would organize such an event.
When the time comes, ask Wang Zhengba, they are managing their own social accounts, and there may be a mature plan through discussion.
"oh."
The village chief was a little disappointed, but he quickly figured out that even without financial assistance, when what Han Qi said became a reality, it would still be Gaolu Village's top priority for hundreds of years.
The people of Gaolu Village are ethnic minorities, and they belong to the Zhiguo ethnic group. This term refers to the ethnic group that directly transitioned from primitive society to modern society across several social forms after the founding of the motherland. It can be said that a hundred years ago, they were still half of the ethnic group.
Primitive tribe.
This is why the status of women here is so low.
Now, this primitive nation from a hundred years ago will have electricity.
With electricity, signals will be laid out immediately, and then there will be a network here, and we will truly be in line with civilized society.
The village chief had completely changed his mind. He no longer considered whether there would be any unknown financial assistance. He stood up and wanted to shake hands with Han Qi a little excitedly. Han Qi put both hands up, and both of them shook their hands a few times.
"Thank you."
"This is what I should do. This may be the meaning of modern travelers' existence."
If his arrival can bring some hope to such a poor place, then Han Qi feels that he is worthy of being a propaganda ambassador. At least he has changed the fate of some people now.
The roads here will be repaired a few years in advance, and students of appropriate age will have hope of going to school.
Even if they just graduate from primary school, can read and speak a little Mandarin, they can find jobs outside that can make them survive... As for the parents' objections, I guess they won't be able to object at that time. The Education Bureau will come to them often.
.
Today's China attaches great importance to children's education. In the past, it was because there was no way. In the future, when there is a safer way, countless teachers and principals will come to communicate with them until parents are willing to send their students to school.
After he finished saying this, he said to Yujiao who was bored on the side: "Let's go to your house and have a look. Where is Nan Yanzi?"
Yujiao pointed in the direction of home.
Back at Yujiao's house, her mother was sitting in her room weaving, and Yanzi was teasing a few rabbits raised at home.
"Brother Han Qi, you are back!"
Han Qi nodded and said, "Well, the rabbit is quite fat. Was it caught on the mountain?"
"No, it's the baby rabbit I bought in the market before, but unfortunately one died." She pouted, and Han Qi touched his pocket and dug out a few pieces of chocolate.
"Don't be upset, come and treat you to something to eat."
"Ah, chocolate."
"Well, you sisters, please share it together. I still have some candies in my bag."
Yujiao squeezed the piece that Han Qi had given her before, and it felt like it was melting as she kept holding it like this.
The mother also came over to take a look. When she saw what Han Qi was giving to the children, she smiled at him and said something. Han Qi sounded like he was thanking him. Anyway, judging from his expression, he should have said something like thank you.
Han Qi smiled and nodded, which was considered a response.
When Nan Yanzi was happy, Han Qi called her to stop.
"Come here after you put the things away. I need to talk to your mother."
She came running quickly.
"say what?"
"Of course I'm talking about you and Yujiao. You can't go on like this, right?"
"Ah? What happened to us?"
Han Qi went over and knocked on the door. When the aunt opened the door and came out, Nan Yanzi said, "Mom, Brother Han Qi wants to talk to you."
"say what?"
"My mother asked you what you said." She said to Han Qi.
Han Qi brought them all to chairs and sat down, saying:
"The road is going to be rebuilt here soon. After it is built, it will be much more convenient for people from below and people from your village to go down. What I want is for you to go to school and learn some knowledge. Yanzi, how old are you?"
"What? Go to school?"
Instead of saying her age, she stood up excitedly.
Age, yes, how old are you and are you still going to school?
She didn't resist going to school. She even wanted to be like the children at the foot of the mountain, carrying her schoolbag and going to school every day to study... But how old was she? She was already getting married, so how could she go to school?
?
Seeing her reaction, Han Qi was stunned and asked: "Then what are you doing if you don't go to school at your age?"
"Get married. Life at home will be much better after you get married. Let Yujiao go. She is only fourteen years old this year. It will be the same after studying for a few years before getting married."
Her mother was puzzled and curious when she saw the two of them chatting so passionately.
"What are you talking about?"
"Girl?!"
Han Qi couldn't understand what his aunt said, but when he thought about Nan Yanzi saying that he was getting married, he felt uncomfortable. Marrying at such a young age?
He and Ingrid were engaged at this age, and they didn't know when they would have to wait until Ingrid graduated from university to get married. And what Nan Yanzi said about getting married was to marry someone else and give birth to a son.
Even if she is eighteen years old now, when she was twenty, she was sitting in a rural courtyard, holding a nursing baby and basking in the sun?
Thinking about this picture makes people shudder.
"I will help you pay for your studies. And in Yujiao's case, tuition is free and food and accommodation are included."
Nan Yanzi's reaction was still very intense.
Let her study with a group of children, and her self-esteem cannot accept it.
Han Qi asked her carefully what she could do in the future, but Nan Yanzi couldn't tell. She could only do farm work, but Han Qi hoped that she could be as confident as the girls in the city. He had been thinking about it since he saw Nan Yanzi yesterday.
She is very smart.
At most, he is a little older.
I went out for a year to learn how to read, and then specialized in accounting. If I couldn't do it, I could just follow Yang Xue in my studio and learn how to be an assistant.
At this point, Nan Yanzi suddenly stopped resisting and asked: "You said you can work with you in the future?"
"Well, I just said it's possible." Han Qi said, "Anyway, remember not to marry casually. The country will definitely deal with special situations like yours. I see there are many people your age.
Yes, it is impossible to abandon you."
There are dozens of children in the entire village who are not studying, and it is impossible to cram them all into the first grade of elementary school.
"What about my mother?"
"I will give you living expenses, and you can save the money for your aunt."
There was sadness and anger on Nan Yanzi's face.
"Then let me go."
Han Qi was speechless.
I didn’t ask you to die heroically, so why are you looking like this?
…………
Tonight, many people have no sleep.
Han Qi's Weibo was ranked as the number one hot search, and the photos in it were also widely circulated on various software. Yujiao's smile was called the most innocent smile in a thousand years, and attracted many people to come up with it.
Tourists drive to Huili.
Han Qi doesn't know this yet.
If he had known, he might have persisted in his approach and continued along the poorest road in western Sichuan.
