Two cars pass through the county seat, the county seat is not big, the asphalt roads on the streets are potholes, there are few vehicles in the city, and the area is relatively backward at a glance.

Cheng Ru asked Wei Chao next to him while driving: "Are you not very rich here?" Wei Chao said with a somewhat depressed face: "Most of our land here is hilly, there is very little land in the county, the location is relatively remote, and there are no large enterprises, so it belongs to a poor county, and the young and middle-aged people have basically gone out to work, and the already small land is also partially barren."

Cheng Ru nodded, and drove out of the city after filling up the gas in the county seat according to Wei Chao's instructions. Not far out of the city, the potholed oil road has turned into a dirt road, and the car walks through it and kicks up a cloud of dust. Several people hurriedly rolled up the car window, Wei Chao shook his head lightly and sighed: "I haven't been back for a few years, but I didn't expect that my hometown has basically not changed, it is still the same."

They walked for more than two hours on more than 60 kilometers of dirt road, and when the car turned along the main road into a rugged path on the side, Wan Lin and the others saw through the dusty car window that they had entered an undulating hilly area.

The surrounding hillside was covered with weeds and trees that had already withered, and the small hillside was covered with yellow fallen leaves and weeds, and the sky was blue without a trace of clouds.

Wei Chao turned around and said: "The front is almost here, our place has little rain all year round, so the vegetation is not luxuriant, and the growth of food can only rely on the sky."

Wan Lin and the others nodded in the back, they could already see from the houses passing by that the peasants in this place were very hard, some of the houses were still made of adobe, and some of the low roofs were still plastered with straw and mud, all of which showed the poverty of this area.

The two grass-green jeeps were already covered with yellow dust, the cars were jolting through the hills, and the farmland was scattered on the small hillside in the distance, and several elderly people with shabby straw hats passed by from time to time, and their dark faces were covered with deep wrinkles like knives and axes, showing the hardships of their lives.

The car traveled forward for more than half an hour, and a village finally appeared in the distance, Wei Chao excitedly pointed to the front and said to Wanlin and a few people: "That's our village, finally home!" Hehehehe", he cried excitedly, but the corners of his eyes slowly moistened.

It's been a few years, and he finally came back, although this is poor and backward, but this is the place where he grew up, here are his childhood memories, and there are relatives who are haunted by his dreams.

Wan Lin and the others were all touched by Wei Chao's affection, they leaned up, leaned on the back of the front seat and stretched their necks to look forward.

A few large willow trees at the entrance of the village hang a little yellow willow branches alone, and the low earthy yellow farmhouse courtyards are distributed on both sides of a dirt road in the road village. Four or five children in dirty clothes were standing at the entrance of the village, and several elderly people were sitting on the stones under the big willow tree at the entrance of the village, turning their heads to stare in the direction of the jeep.

When the car drove to the entrance of the village, Wei Chao asked Cheng Ru to stop the car, opened the car door and jumped out, ran under the tree and bent down to greet a few old men. Several old men were stunned for a moment when they saw Wei Chao, and then stood up and said something to Wei Chao?

Several people looked at Wei Chao in the car and said a few words to a few old men, Wei Chao raised his hand to the car behind, raised his feet and walked towards the village, and the two cars slowly followed Wei Chao and drove towards the village.

Wan Lin opened the car window and turned his head to look out, there were about 70 or 80 households in the village, and several of the houses in the village were two- or three-story red brick buildings, and most of them were low-rise adobe houses. A few chickens ran in the middle of the road to avoid the oncoming cars, and the barking of dogs kept coming from the surrounding courtyards.

Wei Chao led the car to a small courtyard at the back of the village and stopped, and as soon as Wanlin and the others jumped out of the car, Wei Chao grinned and shouted loudly into the courtyard: "Little sister, little sister!" ”

"Brother, big brother, big brother!" A choked and hoarse cry suddenly came from the courtyard, Wei Chao pushed open the two courtyard doors made of broken wooden boards, and rushed in, as the courtyard door was pushed open, Wei Chao was stunned, he stood motionless in the courtyard.

Wan Lin and the others were busy opening the back door of the jeep to unload things, they were stunned when they heard the shouts of the change of tone in the courtyard, and turned their faces to look at the courtyard, a girl with a dark yellow face, nearly one meter seven tall, and a slender and thin figure was limping towards the gate of the courtyard with a wooden stick in both hands, dragging a bandaged leg, and her sallow face was full of tears.

"Little sister!" Wei Chao shouted and pounced, his left hand violently tore off the bandage hanging on his neck, pulled out his right arm and stretched out his arms to hug his sister, two big tears flowed down from the corners of his eyes.

"Big brother, you're back! Woo woo woo" The girl hugged Wei Chao's neck tightly and cried. Wan Lin outside the door was a little startled, threw down the things in his hand and ran into the yard with a "hula".

"What's going on? What happened to you? What's wrong? Say! Wei Chao screamed loudly with tears on his face, but the little sister just hugged his neck and didn't let go, crying "woo".

Several people's hearts twitched as they listened to her cry. Xiaoya saw the thick gauze on her leg at a glance, and immediately called out to Lingling: "Take it!" Carry into the house" After speaking, she turned around and ran outside the hospital, she was a field doctor, and she always carried a set of equipment for field ambulance by her side.

At this time, Jin Yue also reacted, turned around and followed Xiao Ya to run outside. Lingling took the little sister from Wei Chao's hand and walked into the house. Wei Chao's face turned red, and he shouted at the row of red brick houses facing the courtyard gate: "Big Dragon! Get the hell out of here! He lifted his feet and strode to the opposite side.

At this time, the door of the opposite room suddenly opened, and a young man of twenty-five or sixteen who looked quite like Wei Chao walked out with his head down, but he was a little shorter than Wei Chao. He looked at the few people in the courtyard with a melancholy face, then glanced at Wei Chao with some cringe, and said in a low voice, "Big brother is back."

Wei Chao stepped in front of him and shouted, "Say, what's the matter with the little sister?" When Dalong heard his brother's roar, his body trembled, and he replied in a low voice, "It's not that she blames herself. A month ago, she was riding on her boyfriend's motorcycle and said that she was going to buy something for the wedding, and the car overturned halfway through, and her leg was broken by the motorcycle, and that's it."

"Why didn't you go to the hospital?" Wei Chao's eyes stared at his younger brother viciously, "Her boyfriend took her to the county hospital, the hospital said that it was a comminuted fracture, the county hospital was in poor condition and could not be treated, and he had to go to a big hospital in the city, and it cost a lot of money, so his boyfriend asked the doctor to bandage it and came back" Dalong lowered his head and said.
