The yellow mud rammed earthen wall, the black tiles of the roof look very messy, the eaves have fallen a few in some places, revealing vacancies, and it will definitely fall when the wind blows, such a house is already considered a dangerous house, and it is not suitable for people to live in at all, Li Rui looked at the earthen house in front of him, and felt a pain in his heart for no reason, and silently followed Hu Xiaohua forward, thinking in his heart.

Not long after, everyone came to the door of the earthen house, only to find that although the room was cleaned up, but it was too small, a living room, two side rooms, the living room was stacked with many farm tools and sundries, a few chickens were leisurely stomping broken steps, curiously looking at the strangers who came over, giggling, jumping on a table, tilting their heads, lying on the table and not moving.

A woman who looked very haggard came out of the side room, wearing a greasy and black cooking scarf around her body, her hair was a little messy, she looked like she hadn't washed it for several days, and her malnourished face was full of wrinkles that couldn't be dissolved, like a weathered old woman, but Li Rui could see that the other party should be no more than fifty years old.

The woman looked at the person who suddenly came over suspiciously, her eyes were a little more wary and flustered, and when she saw Hu Xiaohua in the crowd, her eyes lit up, and she asked with a little nervousness and concern: "Xiaohua, are you back?" Who are they? Are you okay? ”

People in poor mountainous areas have little knowledge, simple, enthusiastic, but also timid, Hu Mu didn't expect Hu Xiaohua to come back suddenly, and followed by three people who seemed to be either rich or noble, thinking that something was wrong, and they were nervous.

The woman used a local dialect, Li Rui couldn't understand it, looked at Hu Xiaohua, Hu Xiaohua hurriedly stepped forward, explained Li Rui's identity and what happened in detail in the local dialect, and finally asked, "Where is Dad?" ”

"Your dad isn't feeling well, in bed." The woman is Hu Xiaohua's mother, when she heard that it was not a bad thing, she was completely relieved, and hurriedly said, while looking at Li Ruilai, a flash of gratitude flashed in her eyes, the family is surrounded by walls, the poor jingle sounds, there is nothing worth thinking about, Hu's mother is not very worried about people who come to have bad intentions, as long as Hu Xiaohua does not cause something outside, she can rest assured.

"Sick?" Hu Xiaohua was shocked, and before she had time to say more, the wind generally rushed into another side room.

Li Rui couldn't figure out what was going on, and faintly felt that something was wrong, stepped forward, showed a sincere smile, and greeted softly: "Hello, aunt!" ”

Hu Mu said a pass, obviously not able to use Chinese, Li Rui smiled awkwardly, looked at Lin Jing and Qin Rong beside him, the two did not understand the local dialect, helplessly shook their heads, bitter laughter, Lin Jing reminded: "Or, wait for Xiaohua to come out and talk about it, just now I saw Xiaohua look wrong, it seems that something happened at home, let's not worry, don't scare the aunt, just wait at the door first." ”

"It's fine." Li Rui's observation was so keen, and he naturally saw Hu's mother's previous vigilance and nervousness.

Hu Mu said a few more words, seeing that everyone didn't understand, she got up in a hurry, moved two wooden stools out, and placed them at the door, perhaps found that the stools were a little dirty, and smiled bitterly with some inferiority, and quickly picked up a towel that looked clean and wiped it a few times, while smiling and motioning for everyone to sit.

A smile can express a person's heart, and gestures are also a common way of communication on the planet, Li Rui nodded knowingly, but his heart hurt, he was embarrassed to sit on that stool, but he couldn't bear to hurt Hu Mu's heart, thought about it, or sat up, and motioned for Lin Jing and Qin Rong to sit down as well.

At this time, many local villagers came to watch, everyone talked about it, pointed and pointed, but unfortunately they couldn't understand a word, Li Rui had a feeling of being watched as a monkey, he was very embarrassed, and he couldn't leave immediately, but when he thought that this was Hu Lianchang's home, he didn't want Hu Xiaohua to be embarrassed, so he sat down patiently.

Everyone didn't understand the language, there was no way to communicate, Hu Mu explained a few words loudly to the people outside, a young man came out of the crowd, the young man handed over a cigarette, maybe he felt that his cigarette grade was too low, Li Rui may not be able to see it, and smiled awkwardly: "Hello, I'm Xiaohua's cousin, don't you smoke?" ”

"Thanks, I'm not a smoker." Li Rui understood the other party's words, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly replied.

"It's fine." The young man took the cigarette, smiled awkwardly, and added: "The village is too poor, he doesn't have much contact with the outside world, and he doesn't speak Chinese, so my aunt asked me to say 'thank you' to you for him." ”

"You're welcome, by the way, what's going on at home?" Li Rui asked politely.

"My uncle is sick and has been lying down for two days." The young man explained.

"Huh? What disease? Does it matter? Li Rui asked in surprise, nervous.

"Rural people are strong, where is there any disease? I'm angry, my brother's pension said that it would be paid a few days ago, but it still didn't, and my uncle was angry. The young man explained.

"Tell me, what's going on?" When Li Rui heard the word pension, his face sank, and he asked.

"Isn't my brother a martyr? I heard that the above gave a large amount of pension, two years ago should have been issued, but the above dragged on and on, every time I went to ask, I said to wait, I finally agreed to send it some time ago, but it still didn't happen, so that Xiaohua had no money to go to school, and finally there was a student in the village who was admitted to university, and the result was ┅┅Hey, three days ago, my uncle went to ask again, and when he came back, he fell ill, and what happened in the middle Don't say it, these grandsons, it's too hateful. The young man explained angrily.

"The pension that should have been paid two years ago hasn't been paid yet?" Li Rui was shocked and asked.

"It's not, bullying us to be honest, besides, we can't find a place to reason, find a leader, and the leader agrees to do it, but in the end it still doesn't work, it's too hateful." The young man replied angrily.

"Bastard." Li Rui's face turned pale when he heard this, and he couldn't control the anger in his heart anymore, Company Commander Hu fought for the country and sacrificed his life on the battlefield, and there were people in the local area who acted like this, didn't this make the hero bleed and shed tears? looked at Lin Jing angrily, then at Qin Rong, and asked in a deep voice, "Who is in charge of this?" ”

"Don't worry, I'll check, it should be some black-hearted people in the local area who have embezzled this money, give me some time." Lin Jing said, immediately took out her mobile phone, and walked outside to the open place to check the Internet.

As an information master, Lin Jingcha is easy to check this kind of thing, some children went up to watch curiously, Li Rui explained to the young man: "Please let the children come over, don't affect her, this matter will have a result soon, don't worry, I'm here, this matter is done." ”

"That's good." The young man agreed, shouting a few words in the local dialect, and the onlookers returned.

The young man said a few words to the other people around him, everyone's eyes lit up, and they started talking, Li Rui didn't understand, looked at the young man, and the young man quickly explained: "Everyone is thanking you, but, can it really work?" ”
