When he entered the slums again in broad daylight, Xia Fuji had a more intuitive feeling about the poverty here. Most of the people on the streets were selling their children, daughters, or even themselves. People with neat clothes had become rich here, and queued up to receive relief.
The queue for grain stretched for hundreds of meters, and some people fought over a few grains of grain.
"Aunt Xiao! Why are you going to the hospital..."
Xia Buer was sitting on an electric rickshaw, and Hu Yuxiao and the little fairy were sitting next to him. However, Hu Yuxiao seemed to have become cautious because of poverty. She shrank her head and said, "I have a friend there who works there."
The nurse often brings us some leftovers to eat, so I help her along the way!"
"Zhang Yiyi! You didn't really steal someone's watch, did you..."
Xia Fujian leaned forward and looked at the little fairy. As expected, the little fairy said hesitantly: "I...I saw that watch on the sink. I thought no one wanted it, but then the bad guy insisted on going through my pockets.
, when I struggled... I broke my watch!"
"Yiyi! How many times have I told you, you cannot take ill-gotten gains, there will be retribution..."
Hu Yuxiao stamped her feet anxiously, but the little fairy said with red eyes: "Auntie! I didn't take someone's watch to sell it for money. I just wanted to go to the bathhouse to exchange for a ticket. I haven't taken a bath for more than half a month.
I can’t clean myself clean by wiping myself with water. I still want to... I also want to buy myself a set of underwear! Ugh~"
The little fairy suddenly covered her face and cried bitterly. Hu Yuxiao also cried while holding her. Xia Buer could only sigh deeply. Drinking water is limited in supply every day, and the water in the river cannot be used directly for bathing.
, they have to wear leather gloves to wash clothes carefully, and they may not even be able to buy firewood to boil water.
"Little fairy daughter! Don't cry. I will take you to the sauna later and buy you two new clothes..."
Xia Buyer smiled and patted the little fairy on the back. The little fairy immediately raised her head with tears in her eyes, looking at him pitifully like a stray kitten, but Hu Yuxiao hurriedly said
: "We can't spend your money, and it's not easy for you to make money. We appreciate your kindness!"
"Aunt Xiao! Don't say this to me. Without your family, I wouldn't be where I am today..."
Xia Buer gently squeezed her shoulder, and it happened that the electric tricycle also arrived at the place. But when Xia Buer got off the car, his scalp was numb. It was an indescribably messy place, with shabby shacks and rusty buildings.
The stained containers are crisscrossed, sewage is overflowing on the ground, garbage is everywhere, and dry or thin excrement can be seen everywhere.
"Xiaotian! Please put on your mask and hat..."
Hu Yuxiao hurriedly got out of the car and winked. Xia Buer knew that she must understand what he was doing, so he had no choice but to put on the little fairy's mask and hat and follow them inside, but after a few steps he
He stepped on at least two pieces of excrement, and he would have almost stepped into a cesspit if the little fairy hadn't reminded him.
"Oh my god! Is this place inhabited by people..."
Xia Buer really couldn't describe the environment here. It was just a shack built on wasteland. There wasn't even a proper road. Moreover, once this person was too poor to eat, his so-called quality and backbone were all gone.
It has become commonplace for it to be lost and excreted everywhere.
"Hey~ what should we do? The current environment is like this. It would be great if we can survive..."
Hu Yuxiao sighed helplessly, but the little fairy pouted and said: "The people here are very bad. We have to be escorted by uncles when we go in and out. I also have to wear a mask and a hat."
, otherwise those stinky gangsters will touch me when they see me, and I usually don’t dare to go out!"
"Hey~ This is our Queen Xiao. You don't do business. Why did you change your gender today..."
Suddenly! Several young women who were sunbathing at the door stood up. They were wearing very revealing rags. Hu Yuxiao ignored them with a cold face, but the young ladies smiled and said: "How can my boss see this?"
Fuck her, her niece must have been sold at a good price, and the little phoenix will finally turn into a little country chicken!"
"Keep your mouths clean, this is my brother..."
The little fairy suddenly hugged Xia Buer with a face full of shame and anger. Who knew that the girls still mocked: "Brothers are the ones who have sex. After you call me brother, you have to call me husband, boss brother! Come and have fun with us."
Well, our work is better than theirs, and the price is cheaper, it only costs fifty cents!"
"How many?"
Xia Buer thought he had heard wrong. Five cents was enough to buy a bowl of noodles, but Hu Yuxiao quickly pulled him over and quickened his pace, punched him and said angrily: "Don't you think so?"
, you are just a little older and you want to do this kind of thing, those old shoes are all dirty!"
"No! I just think they are too cheap..."
Xia Fujian scratched his head in embarrassment. In front of his aunt who had watched him grow up, he finally showed a rare childishness. However, before he could finish his words, two old women came after him and said, "Hu Yu"
Xiao! Since you sold your niece to the boss, you should pay us back our money!"
"Auntie! Don't listen to their nonsense. This is my former colleague who came to visit our house..."
Hu Yuxiao stamped her feet anxiously to explain, but the two old ladies didn't believe it at all, and actually called several creditors loudly. Xia Buer immediately asked in shock how much she owed them, but the little fairy said pitifully
: "We owe a lot of money, more than 100 yuan!"
"Cough cough cough..."
Xia Buyer almost choked to death on his own saliva. If more than a hundred dollars could be called a lot of money, then his family's prodigal nanny could spend it all on breakfast, so he confidently paid the "huge" debt
He took all the money, but it turned out that these people didn't even have a mobile phone, so he just sent them away with a few packs of cigarettes.
Hu Yuxiao bowed and apologized to him with tears in her eyes, and said: "Xiao Er! I'm sorry for causing you trouble. I will definitely find a way to repay the money!"
"Aunt Xiao! If you say such things again, I will get angry with you. We are a family..."
Xia Fujian glared at her with feigned anger, patted her shoulder and continued walking forward, and soon came to an area built with shipping containers. It turned out that the two of them still lived in the luxury area here, but the containers were built enough
It is four stories high and can only be climbed up and down by rickety wooden ladders. Once the summer comes, it will definitely become a big iron steamer.
There are no young girls or girls here. I guess those with some qualifications have gone out to make money, but there are still a lot of young guys. It’s not that they don’t dare to go out of the city to work hard, it’s just that they have to be accompanied by a master when they go out to search for supplies.
Okay, besides, now you have to travel dozens or hundreds of kilometers as soon as you go out. A group of rookies running around is going to die.
"Ah! Xiao Hu, who is this boss? Please introduce it to us quickly..."
A group of slender aunts gathered around one after another, and some women jumped downstairs in a hurry. Xia Buer could only laugh or cry. He had just been disliked by his nanny for dressing up, but here he turned out to be an adult.
Now that he is a rich man, all the aunts try their best to get him to kiss him.
"Brother! Come up with me quickly..."
The little fairy took Xia Buer's arm with a panic look on her face, as if she was afraid that her baby would be snatched away, so she dragged him up to the second floor of the container. There were actually about ten people living in the small container, basically all of them.
They are middle-aged and elderly women over fifty, of course! They are basically his neighbors and old acquaintances.
"Yiyi! Who is this..."
Everyone stood up curiously. It seemed that their men must have gone out to find work. If they came back, this place would probably be packed like a sardine can. But Xia Buer could only resist the impulse and said with a smile: "You guys
OK, I am Hu Yuxiao’s former colleague, my name is Xia Tian!”
"Oh! Hello, hello, sit down wherever you want..."
Everyone nodded politely and moved a wooden box as a stool. No one doubted Xia Buer. After Hu Yuxiao also climbed up from below, the aunts and aunts took the initiative to give up the place to them.
, Xia Fuji immediately took off his mask and asked: "Have I changed a lot? I thought it would..."
"Yiyi! Go to your Aunt Liu's house and borrow some boiling water..."
Hu Yuxiao quickly interrupted him and sent Zhang Yiyi away. After the little fairy left, she smiled bitterly and said: "I wouldn't recognize you if you didn't speak. You have changed so much. You have become darker and taller."
You're still strong, and with that beard on your face, I thought you were in your late thirties, your head is really too tall!"
"Don't tell me that I didn't even notice..."
Xia Buyer smiled and touched his head. A year ago, he was nearly 1.8 meters tall. He must be 1.83 meters tall now. However, Hu Yuxiao looked around and then pulled over.
He whispered: "People say you are working for mutants, is it true?"
"That's what happened in the past. Now I won't sacrifice my life for anyone..."
Xia Bu smiled confidently, and Hu Yuxiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She pulled him to the depths and said, "We escaped to the resettlement camp together. Later, in order to arrest you, the military took all the people who knew you.
Everyone gathered for interrogation, and Li Rong was monitored 24 hours a day!"
"Then how did you get here..."
Xia Buyer leaned against the vent in confusion, while Hu Yuxiao said: "A colonel named Bai picked us up on a warship and said he would take us to some island for centralized custody. Later, Colonel Bai
We were sent here by helicopter, but he was arrested the second day after we entered the city!"
"Where's Li Rong? Why isn't he with you..."
Xia Buyer looked at her suspiciously, but Hu Yuxiao sighed: "She is your girlfriend, how dare you reveal your identity? You will be shot for harboring mutants here, not to mention Colonel Bai before entering the city
Just say, let us never reveal our identities, just say that we are the family members of Hangcheng officials, otherwise we will also be in trouble!"
"Where is Li Rong..."
Xia Buer found that she was trying to avoid the most important things, but Hu Yuxiao actually said hesitantly: "She went with her family before. She was afraid of injuring us and never contacted us, and we didn't dare to look for her.
She, but I heard people talking about her a few days ago... said she..."
"What happened to her? Did something happen..."
Xia Buyer grabbed her arm anxiously, but Hu Yuxiao's head actually dropped lower. She bit her red lips and chewed for a long time before saying, "I heard someone said that she found a very rich man."
My boyfriend is going to have a wedding... next month!"
"Boom~"
Xia Buyer's head was like a bolt from the blue. Even though he had been prepared for this, when he heard that Li Rong was going to marry someone else, his heart still felt like someone had stabbed him hard and then dug out his heart.
