Zhang Ming and Mu Qingyan opened their mouths wide in surprise, and they all turned their heads to look at the seven or eight-year-old boy, sitting on the stone, with his head down, looking distracted.

Zhang Ming wanted to go up to say hello, but was pulled back by the man. "It's better not to go, he has autism, and he won't pay attention to anyone who touches him except her grandmother."

"She still has a grandmother?" Zhang Ming asked rhetorically.

The man nodded. "Her grandmother lives over there, she is in her eighties, and it is not easy for this old and young to rely on our usual relief."

"What about Lan Yan? Didn't Lan Yan come back to see them? "Zhang Ming really can't imagine that Lan Yan, who is so rich, has such a down-and-out mother and child.

When the man heard Zhang Ming's question, he stopped talking, but turned around and walked in the direction of his house, followed by his wife and children. Zhang Ming and Mu Qingyan followed.

After the group arrived at the man's house, it turned out that there were two old people in the house, who should be the man's parents, and the man's father was the village chief here, who was very old and could only cook at home simply.

The man introduced Zhang Ming and the two to his parents, turned around and said, "If you don't dislike it, just live here with me, we are not as comfortable as outside, and there are only some coarse tea and light rice, which is really embarrassing." ”

Zhang Ming knew their hard work, and hurriedly waved his hand: "It's okay, just let us live, thank you very much." Just, can you tell me where Lan Yan's mother's home is? ”

"It's in a small house in front of you, at the end of the straight walk." At this time, the man's wife pointed to the front and said.

"Thank you."

"You guys still don't go now, Lan Yan should go out now, no one in our village knows where she went, only that he goes out at this time of day and then doesn't come back until noon." The man said.

"Well, let's go and tidy up where we sleep." Zhang Ming turned his head to Mu Qingyan and said,

After the two of them entered, they knew that the family was so good to them, the house was not big, there were only two rooms in total, and the best one was given to them, which meant that the family was going to squeeze a room tonight.

Although Mu Qingyan is a young lady, she is also decent, knows some rules, and does not show that disdain on her face.

The man smiled innocently: "I'm really sorry, the house is too shabby." ”

"It's okay. It's windy everywhere and it should be cool at night. Mu Qingyan hurriedly put on an indifferent appearance and smiled.

The man didn't speak, but went out to cook, Zhang Ming asked and found out that there is no custom of eating breakfast here, firstly, there is not so much money, and secondly, there is no time to cook, so the breakfast and lunch are eaten together, which leads to the fact that it is only ten o'clock and has already started to eat lunch.

At the dinner table, there were three dishes in total, a large bowl of potato chips, some small cabbage grown by yourself, and a bowl of chicken.

Zhang Ming knew that the chicken was specially made for their arrival, otherwise it was estimated that he would not kill a chicken in a year, Zhang Ming was very moved, and the children were also very excited, but Zhang Ming didn't taste the taste of the chicken, he just wanted to leave it for the children to eat.

After dinner, there was a little time before twelve o'clock, Zhang Ming and Mu Qingyan took the children to play eagles and catch chickens, Mu Qingyan took out some chocolates and biscuits from his bag and distributed them to the children, and grandpa sat on the big stone outside the door smoking a big cigarette, smiling knowingly.

Zhang Ming and Mu Qingyan were tired of playing, so they all sat next to them and rested for a while, and the children also dispersed, and they should go home to share with their parents with the chocolates they had never eaten.

"It would be nice if everyone out there was as simple as here." Mu Qingyan looked at the scattered backs of those children and said.

Zhang Ming sighed. "All I can say is that you think too much, there are too many temptations outside, it's like a glass of muddy water, and we're just a cloth to put in, it's only a matter of time before we soak ourselves."

"But you're not sure that there are no people like them in the outside world." Mu Qingyan retorted.

Zhang Ming laughed. "The probability of this kind of person is like the probability of Warren Buffett going bankrupt overnight, everyone outside will be a little scheming, and no one will kill a chicken for a stranger once a year like them. This is tantamount to taking out their most valuable treasure. ”

"You have crooked reasoning every time." Mu Qingyan pursed her mouth, turned her head and saw Lan Yan's child, touched Zhang Ming, and motioned him to look at the child.

Looking in the direction of Mu Qingyan, I saw that the child was lowering his head and fiddling with his fingers, the two glanced at each other, Zhang Ming took the lead in getting up and walking towards the child, and Mu Qingyan also followed.

Zhang Ming came to him and bent down and said with a smile: "Little friend, can I be friends with you?" ”

The boy was silent, not even looking at Zhang Ming.

Mu Qingyan also squatted down and said, "Children, I have chocolates and biscuits here, let's eat them together." ”

The boy remained silent.

The two glanced at each other, shook their heads helplessly, and when Mu Qingyan was about to speak, Zhang Ming pulled her. "It's useless, children with autism don't give too much stimulation, it will be counterproductive."

"Okay, then let's go and see if her grandma has come back." Mu Qingyan looked disappointedly at the little boy in front of him who only knew how to sit on the stone and play with his fingers.

Zhang Ming nodded, and was about to walk towards Lan Yan's hometown, when he saw the little boy suddenly stand up and walk in the other direction of Zhang Ming without hurry.

The two looked back and saw the little boy standing next to an old man.

Zhang Ming guessed who the old man was, came to the old man, and asked, "Hello, are you Lan Yan's mother?" ”

The old man was taken aback for a moment. shouted excitedly: "Who are you, are you this shameless thing causing trouble outside again, I am not her mother, and I don't have such a daughter." ”

Zhang Ming didn't expect this old man to be so excited, so he hurriedly stepped forward to stop the old man who was rushing forward, and explained: "Old man, you misunderstood, Lan Yan didn't cause trouble, we are her friends, just to ask about something." ”

"Don't come and ask me, I don't know anything, and no one she knows is a good thing." The old man scolded in public mercilessly.

Being watched by so many people, Zhang Ming was also very embarrassed. But I had no choice but to step forward and say, "Old man, we really have no bad intentions. ”

Seeing that the old man was about to enter the door, Zhang Ming wanted to step forward and fight for it, but who knew that the old man would spit on Zhang Ming when he turned around. "Poof, poof!"

There was a bang, isolating Zhang Ming outside.
