A few days later.

Li Wu and Hu Manman and Chen Xiaoyan went out to visit the night market again.

On the way back, Chen Xiaoyan said she wanted to go on an outing with Manman and asked Li Wu if he had time and if he wanted to go together.

Li Wuyi heard that of course he has time. He can still have time even if he doesn’t have time. Time is like a good thing. It can still be squeezed!

The next day, Li Wu picked up the two girls at the school gate, bought several large bags full of food and drinks along the way, and drove to the suburbs.

Since he had to take safety into consideration when going out for an outing, Li Wu asked Chang Wei and Luo Wei to drive behind him.

Li Wu took his two girls and got into his newly purchased Honda Civic.

Driving for more than an hour on a winding mountain road was very difficult for Li Wu, a novice driver. Fortunately, Li Wu was calm and composed along the way, with almost no surprises, and finally arrived at the destination safely.

This is a quaint small village. Hu Manman and his wife also heard from their classmates that although it is remote, the villagers are simple and enthusiastic, and the scenery is natural, unlike the city where everything is artificially created.

They came this time to go to a place called Qixia Mountain.

If you want to go up the mountain, you need to pass through the village. There is only a narrow dirt road in the village. Cars cannot drive in at all, so a few people can only walk up the mountain.

Parking the car on the side of the road, a few people got out and walked into the village.

Walking to the entrance of the village, there are several low mud houses and wooden houses nearby. There are also a few better ones in the distance, which are made of red bricks. They are all three or two rooms, which are different from the twenty or thirty in the city.

floors, creating a sharp contrast.

From time to time, the sound of children's play could be heard at the door of the hut. After walking for a while, there were several forks in the road ahead, and there happened to be an old man sitting in front of the door of a hut.

Li Wu stepped forward and asked with a smile: "Hello, old man, I would like to ask which way to go to Qixia Mountain?"

The old lady smiled kindly but said nothing. She just looked at Li Wu and others with a smile on her face, then pointed to her ears and waved her hand.

Li Wu and others were a little embarrassed.

At this time, a little boy not far away said: "Are you going to Qixia Mountain? Go straight ahead on the road on the right, don't turn, go straight, go to the end and turn left, you can see Qixia Mountain." Xiaohong

Her grandma is mute and deaf, so she cannot hear you."

Li Wu was relieved as he was heavy as a mountain, otherwise he would always feel weird! He took two packs of snacks and handed them to the old woman and the little boy. The little boy was very happy and kept saying thank you, uncle. Li Wu laughed at himself, I am only eighteen

Well, he became an uncle so soon!

Several people walked along the path towards Qixia Mountain.

When I first arrived at the foot of the mountain, I saw a little girl on the side of the road. She was about thirteen or fourteen years old. Her immature face was slightly sallow, her hair was tied up casually, and she was wearing a blue top that looked a little too big and was tied with a rope.

There were two corners of his pants, there were two small holes in the knees of his pants, and his worn-out shoes were full of mud.

The little girl was carrying an old backpack, which contained small sweet potatoes, a lot of wild onions, and some unknown wild vegetables.

When the little girl saw Li Wu and the others, her eyes were a little frightened and evasive. She glanced at them in fear and did not dare to look again.

Li Wu couldn't help but feel a little strange. Although the little boy in the village just now was not well-dressed, at least it fit him perfectly and was much cleaner. But the little girl in front of him looked too sloppy and shabby, right?

Several people came to the little girl, and Hu Manman asked softly: "Little sister, what are you doing?"

The little girl didn't seem to be that scared of her, and said in a low voice: "I'm carrying food home."

Hu Manman looked at the things in the basket and asked curiously: "Are these all grown by your family?"

The little girl shook her head slightly and said, "They don't want the things they picked up from other people's fields."

Several people were slightly startled. No wonder the sweet potato was so small. It turned out that someone else had discarded it or left it out.

Hu Manman asked again: "Where are your parents? Why are you alone here? Aren't you afraid?"

Little girl: "Not afraid."

As for her parents' questions, she didn't answer them.

After a pause, the little girl suddenly remembered that her mother had said that children must be able to talk to be lovable. When adults ask you questions, you must answer them truthfully. It is impolite to not answer others.

So he added: "My parents are both dead, so my brother and I are the only ones in the family."

Several people were stunned for a moment.

Li Wu looked at the little girl carefully. The little girl was much calmer than at the beginning.

Li Wu signaled Lao Luo to come over, took a few packs of snacks and put them in the little girl's basket. When the little girl saw that they were food, she couldn't help showing a happy expression on her face, but she immediately became tangled again, and then she seemed to have dropped something.

Decision: "Uncle, can I just have one pack?"

Li Wu couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Why only one pack, but these are all for you!"

The little girl whispered: "Mom said, you can't just ask for other people's things. But I want a bag for my brother!" Li Wu thought for a while and said to the little girl: "I will give you a few more bags, and we can go

Would you like to see your house?"

The little girl hesitated for a moment, looked at the pile of snacks, and then nodded.

Several people followed the little girl to the village again. In front of a dilapidated wooden house in the village, the little girl opened the door and shouted: "Xiao Yuan, come out quickly, there is delicious food!"

When I opened the door, a musty smell rushed straight into my nose. The room was very messy. There was a bed, and the quilt on the bed was a little yellowed and messy.

There were some sundries piled on one table, and there were several black bowls on the other table.

Li Wu went over and took a look. There was rice made of corn kernels mixed with potatoes, and a plate of fried wild onions.

Li Wu felt a sore nose, and Hu Manman and Chen Xiaoyan were already wiping tears.

There are two photos of a boy and a girl above the bed. Judging from the situation, they must be the little girl's parents.

When the little girl saw that her brother was not in the room, she ran to the door and shouted his name loudly.

It wasn't until there was a response from the distance that I felt relieved.

Li Wu came to the little girl: "You haven't told uncle yet, what is your name?"

"My name is Li Ronger, and my brother's name is Li Xiaoyuan."

Li Ronger whispered.

Li Wu nodded: "My surname is also Li, you can call me Uncle Li from now on."

Then he pointed to the two photos above the bed: "Are these your parents?"

Li Ronger nodded and said nothing, and Li Wu didn't want to make her sad, so he didn't ask any more questions.

At this time, a little boy ran up not far away. Li Ronger quickly ran over and took the little boy's hand: "Xiao Yuan, this is Uncle Li, please call me Uncle Li!"

Xiao Yuan's clothes are also very shabby, but he seems to be in good spirits. It can be seen that Li Ronger takes good care of him.

Xiao Yuan was a little timid, but still called out softly,

"Uncle Li."

Li Wu looked at Xiao Yuan and responded with a smile.

He took two more bags of snacks and handed them to Xiao Yuan. Xiao Yuan didn't take them. He glanced at his sister and saw that she didn't speak. He quickly grabbed them and couldn't wait to open them and took a bite. Then he thought of something and handed the snacks to Li Ronger again.

Li Ronger slapped him: "Have you thanked Uncle Li? You have to thank Uncle Li first. Have you forgotten what my sister taught you?"

Xiao Yuan chewed in his mouth and said with a smile: "Thank you, Uncle Li!"
