Han Fei was quickly welcomed in. The woman, no, she could be called the third aunt now, very enthusiastically showed Han Fei where the 68th house was. It was almost the shabbiest house in the entire village. , also located at the very edge.
As soon as the little girl got home, she immediately jumped in and shouted: "Mother, mother! A sister is here! Mother!"
Listening to her childish words, Han Fei felt a little relieved. This place was indeed extremely dilapidated, but a little girl could survive, so she couldn't! Just think of losing weight!
Han Fei walked into the house ambitiously, but as soon as she stepped in, she was surprised inside. The whole house was very empty, and there were only a few decent pieces of furniture. Even the only table was missing. It had lost one foot and was barely supported by a stick. There were a few chipped teacups and kettles on it, as well as two low stools, but there was nothing else.
There was a cough, and Han Fei looked into the room, and a rickety figure slowly walked out.
When Han Fei saw people, she felt that they were too thin and out of shape. This was caused by long-term malnutrition. Her cheeks were sunken, and her originally beautiful face looked like a ghost, which was a bit scary. It’s hard to imagine that she is the little girl’s mother.
The third aunt who came with Han Fei came over and said, "Oh, Lu Ping, what are you doing? Why are you up? Go and lie down quickly. You are not in good health, so you should get more rest."
The woman named Lu Ping shook her head and said, "There are guests at home. I want to entertain them. Who is this?"
Han Fei quickly said: "I'm Han Fei, um, I may have to come here to bother you for a month."
Lu Ping nodded clearly, coughed for a while, and said reluctantly: "I'm still thinking about when you will arrive. Miss Han, I'm sorry, my body didn't come out to greet you."
But the third aunt was surprised and said: "This, this is really the person who is here to help us!"
Originally, the third aunt was a little skeptical along the way, but when she saw what Lu Ping said, she believed it and felt excited.
Lu Ping frowned and said, "Help?"
Han Fei immediately interrupted, "Yes, I'm here to help you, otherwise why would I bother you for so long?"
The third aunt was excited and said: "Miss Han, I really appreciate you! You rest here first, I will tell the village chief right now!"
With that said, the third aunt couldn't wait to leave, and her smile broke when she left.
When they were the only ones left, Lu Ping said directly: "That person just told me that someone would come to stay temporarily for a month. It was enough that I didn't need to take more care of them. He didn't say anything about help..."
Han Fei secretly sighed inwardly that this sickly looking woman's brain was not weak at all, she was very easy to use and her organization was so clear.
At this time, the little girl said in a sweet voice: "Mom, will my sister live with us in the future?"
Looking at her daughter, Lu Ping's toughness softened, she touched the little girl's head and said, "Yes, little Shuizhu."
Han Fei was stunned when she heard the name, and looked at the little girl again, Shuizhu? This name is quite special.
Xiao Shuizhu happily hugged her mother's thigh and said, "That's great! Sister, can I play with Shuizhu!"
Lu Ping said softly: "Xiao Shuizhu, please find some bedding for your sister."
"Look for Shuizhu right now!"
Just go, the little girl immediately ran into the house, leaving Han Fei and Lu Ping behind.
Han Fei raised a friendly smile and said: "It is true that I am only here for a temporary stay, but I am serious about helping you. After all, I will live for a month in the future, and I don't want to be isolated by the whole village for that long. You should understand me the meaning of."
Lu Ping took a deep look at Han Fei and said, "Miss Han has a sharp mind."
Han Fei said obediently: "Aunt Ping was joking."
Aunt Ping immediately resolved the estrangement between the two. Lu Ping sighed helplessly and said: "I took that person's money, so you can stay and live here. If you really can help the village, we're afraid I can’t provide anything in return. You must have seen the situation in the village along the way. The situation... is a bit bad.”
This situation is more than a little bad!
It’s almost terrible, isn’t it
Han Fei was embarrassed to say that she had never seen such a poor village!
Not a single villager here is wearing anything other than patched clothes, and some children don’t even have shoes! All of them were extremely thin, which made her even fatter. Han Fei, who was originally complacent because she was lighter, suddenly felt that she was too fat!
In fact, no one here dislikes her for being fat!
Han Fei swore that she really saw envy in those people's eyes, like envy of fat...
How hungry you are!
That night, Han Fei stayed in this house. Knowing that she was coming, Lu Ping had already vacated a room, but the so-called bed was a bed made of several wooden boards with soft hay on top. Covered with a layer of washed white bedding.
Han Fei could see that Aunt Ping really treated her with the best treatment, but she was really too poor and could only do this.
On the first night, Han Fei lay on the hay, but she didn't feel any discomfort at all. The long journey made her exhausted and sleepy, and her eyelids drooped. Just when she was about to fall asleep While he was sleeping, a strong cough came from the room next door. Even though the person who coughed had tried his best to hold it back, it was still very clear in the silent night.
Han Fei turned over.
There was a cough.
Han Fei turned over again.
The coughing didn't stop.
In the end, Han Fei surrendered and resisted the strong sleepiness and got up. Because she was too poor, there were no wooden doors in the two rooms, only curtains. So the coughing sound inside was particularly obvious.
Before Han Fei walked in, Lu Ping walked out.
The two looked at each other in the darkness.
Lu Ping covered her mouth, suppressed her cough, and said reluctantly: "I'm sorry for waking you up. I'm going to take some medicine. I'll be fine after taking the medicine."
With that said, Lu Ping picked up a bowl of black concoction on the table. It seemed that she had already prepared it.
Just as she was about to drink it, her wrist was grabbed.
"Miss Han, what are you doing?"
Han Fei frowned, took the bowl from her, came closer and smelled it, his frown deepened, and he said, "Where is the medicine dregs?"
Lu Ping didn't understand and said, "What does Miss Han want the dregs of medicine for?"
"Find it for me."
Perhaps the cousin on Han Fei's face was too determined, so Lu Ping had no choice but to take the medicine jar and hand it to Han Fei.
Han Fei directly poured out the medicinal residue inside on the table, turned it over carefully, and said, "Sure enough."
