But no matter how he called the old man, he would not open his eyes and his breathing was very rapid.
Chen Xuan was a little anxious and hurriedly knelt down to see the old man's injuries. But after a closer look, he found that the old man was in poor health and there was no one around. How could there be an old man passing by in this desolate place?
Chen Xuan didn't care about the trivial matters, and directly explained the labor movement method to the elderly, hoping that the toxins in the elderly's bodies could be removed a little, so that the elderly could get better.
"Young man, please stop exerting yourself. I have been ill for many years. Just send me home. I will bury me properly with my sons. I will not waste any more money on hiring a doctor."
.”
The old man woke up suddenly, which startled Chen Xuan. Chen Xuan was a little embarrassed and quickly helped the old man sit next to him.
"How can you say such a thing to this old man? Life is not easy. It's his vision that should be cherished. And isn't it right for your children to spend money to treat you?"
On the surface, it was nothing when the old man heard this, but Chen Xuan saw something he shouldn't have seen. It seemed that the old man didn't want to mention his children. Did he do something he shouldn't have done?
Then the old man turned his head and looked around again, but there was still no one there. He couldn't help but show a very painful expression and said lightly.
"Forget it, just leave me alone. It's no coincidence that I'm here. They brought me here just because they wanted me to die in the wild. This way they don't even have to leave the first-level straw mat. It saves so much effort."
You go back first, thank you young man."
How could Chen Xuan ignore this matter? He immediately took the old man with him and walked in another direction. Then Chen Xuan saw the person following him.
"Since you have been following me for so long, how long will it take to come out?"
When Chen Xuan heard this, he couldn't bear it anymore. What the old man said sounded desolate. How could his children do such a thing?
Moreover, it is not easy for the elderly to raise their children, so they should fulfill their filial piety at this age.
Then he appeared and someone was following him, but if he looked carefully he couldn't see anyone, only the sound of footsteps not far away but not near. Chen Xuan was very sensitive, so he heard it.
"What are you waiting for if you haven't come out after such a long time?"
He originally thought it was some lawless people or robbers who followed him to seek wealth and death, but several people walked out of the darkness.
Only then did he realize that the clothes of these people were somewhat similar to those of the old people. Even their facial features had some shadow of the old people.
"You must be the children of this old man. I don't know how you can be so cruel. The old man asked you to raise him, but you actually want to leave him here. He is not in good health. Aren't you afraid of suffering if you do this?
To God’s punishment?”
When several people heard what Chen Xuan said, they couldn't help but leave. They came over to support the old man in their hands and looked at Chen Xuan warily.
"What do you know? You don't understand at all. We are doing this for the sake of our mother. Our family is already poor, and there are not many families like us in the village. What we do is considered good, and it is not like others.
I starve to death. Our family has a large population and it is not easy to marry a wife. Now there is no good work for us to do. The whole family needs food and clothing."
Another woman who seemed to be this man's wife came out, looking even more disgusted.
"We never had a good meal or good clothes from our home to theirs. Every time this old woman got sick, we had to take care of her, and we also spent a lot of money to hire a doctor. We said we were giving up many times.
, but we couldn’t bear it, and in the end the family couldn’t get rid of the trouble, so we came up with this plan, and you can’t blame us.”
The woman said with a very painful look on her face. It didn't look like she was fake. However, looking around, the people before her looked like they were dressed. They didn't come from a poor family. How could there be so many poor people here?
"I'm from out of town, so I don't know the situation here, but it's impossible for you to do this because I haven't had parents since I was a child. I think you will regret your behavior in the future. Being poor is a bit poorer.
, but Qiong’s wife, who cannot be poor, has wronged her. As a man, he should go out and fight hard. What does it mean for you to do this? "
Chen Xuan planned to go to their place to see what was going on and avoid the limelight. The whole city must have known about the order given there, but there was a big difference between these rich areas and the poor areas.
"Take me back and have a look. What's going on there? In fact, I'm also curious about why you are poor."
As Chen Xuan spoke, he saw the hesitant expressions on the three people's faces. It seemed that they were willing to take him on this journey. Chen Xuan didn't know what he would see over there yet.
"Then you will know how poor we really are. Now you can only see it on the surface. My mother and I have not eaten for 3 or 4 days. We eat bark and leaves every day and even if we go to the city to beg for food, people will drive us away."
, so we can’t live at all.”
As the three of them talked, they brought Chen Xuan to their village. Before they entered the village, they saw some rotten wood. Unexpectedly, there were actually some people living there. There were men and women, old and young, and they all looked unhappy.
.
"Then why don't you grow some crops and buy some food? Then you won't go hungry. Why are you like this?"
"Who doesn't want to buy some food for farming? But all the good land around us has been taken away by the government. How can we have any place to farm? The little bit at the door is not enough to eat. There are not only the elderly but also children at home.
We can’t starve our children.”
The old man couldn't help crying when he heard this just now, and she didn't want to, but as the eldest person in the family, he should make some contribution and not let his grandson go hungry.
"I understand what you are saying, and I hope I can help you. However, I have also caused some trouble these days. I hope to use your village to avoid the limelight, but I can guarantee that when I leave, your village will get rid of poverty.
"
Chen Xuan does what he says, but it depends on whether these people believe him or not.
"Son, I think what this strong man said is right. After all, I fainted on the road just now. I was obviously dressed like a beggar. She was willing to help me up. What he said was not a lie. Besides, we can't
There’s nothing to lie to.”
As the old man said, her son and daughter-in-law were considering it, but they also believed Chen Xuan.
