Chapter 5 The poor's children are headed early

When it was time to eat, some villagers slowly disperse, but many of them stayed to continue to talk. The little kids basically didn't leave and were all thinking about playing with Xiaobai. Village Chief Bao and Bao Daming, waited for several village cadres to discuss and arrange a resident for the newly arrived village work team.

Heixiazi Village is too poor, and there is not even a village headquarters. The temporary village headquarters is located in the west room of the village chief’s house, so of course it cannot be occupied. After some research, I finally decided to find a poor household with a relatively small population, which is convenient for food and accommodation.

Tian Yuan also thinks it is good, and the village work team also has this special fund. They rent a house in the village and can also help a poor household. It can be said that they kill two birds with one stone.

This is a big and small fat negligence. Bao Er lazily smiled and walked up to the ox cart, carrying the luggage bag very diligently: "My brother is the only one in my family. Comrade Tian is the most suitable for living in my house-"

"Take it down, the mouse can starve to death even when you come to your house." Village Chief Bao kicked the lazy guy's butt, then shouted at the crowd: "Dahuang, Dahuang, come over, Xiaotian'er will live in your house from now on."

A young man swayed out of the crowd, shaking step by step, no wonder he called "Da Huang". He grinned, his face was always filled with a silly smile, and he shook to the village chief, and said whimperingly. Anyway, Tian Yuan didn't understand a single word. He had noticed this person a long time ago, because the old and young people in the village were the only young people. Now it seems that he should be a disabled person with an underdeveloped cerebellum.

The village chief rubbed his shook his head: "The kid's parents are gone, and there is a little girl at home, so it's also very pitiful. Xiaotian'er, don't worry, don't look at him like a bear, he is the best-minded, and he can handle any work, just slow down. If you live with him, there will definitely be nothing wrong."

Well, this is true. Tian Yuan is not a pretentious person, so he pushed the bicycle and the village chief drove the ox cart, swaying in front of him and leading the way, and the group entered the village.

I looked around the way, and the village was not big, with only two houses in front and back, and there were roughly six or seventy families. Every household was very spacious, and the gardens in front and back were combined, so I was afraid that there were several acres of land.

However, the quality of the houses is very average, with only a few red bricks and red tiles. The rest is still thatched houses. It seems that Tian Xiaopang suddenly returned to the small village where he lived when he was a child. Some of the houses were all crooked and were about to be put on a stumbling block. For such a house, the family went out to work and settled outside and couldn't come back, so the homestead was useless. It would be even better if the house collapsed, and the above was also given a subsidy of 1,000 yuan.

After asking the village chief, he found that less than 80 households in Heixiazitun, the poor households accounted for nearly half. Tian Xiaopang suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was not light! He rubbed his eyebrows and immediately became full of confidence.

As we walked along the way, every household surrounded the willow branches. The willow branches were about to sprout but had not yet grown leaves, but they only gave birth to white, bright and furry dogs. The little monkey looked interesting and had already broken one in his hand, then rushed to Dahuan's shoulders, and used the dog to sweep itch around his neck, causing Dahuan's mouth to giggle with unknown meaning.

The couple played better - Tian Yuan was also happy and was more satisfied with the arrangements of the village chief Bao. You should know that the little monkey is also a pretentious person and rarely gets close to people. At least it proves that his new landlord is indeed very pure in his mind.

Although the village is a bit dilapidated, the dogs jumping forward and backward, the old cows who mooed and cried when they saw people, the ducks who lined up to go home, and the earthy atmosphere in the air, are particularly at ease. Perhaps, this is the joy of the pastoral world.

Tian Yuan also felt a little emotional: If the pace of life in the city is a car, then the life of Heixiazitun is like an old ox cart behind him, always slowly and slowly. As for which one is better or worse, it depends entirely on personal preference.

I walked to the easternmost end of the village and arrived at Dahuang's house. There were three adobe houses with grinning doors and windows. It seemed that they were about to collapse. The turf on the roof was much bald and looked very dilapidated.

However, Tian Yuan felt quite friendly, because when he was a child, his house was probably like this, full of childhood memories.

Dahuang opened the door of the house, and a few people unloaded things in a row: two bags of rice, two bags of white flour, a few buckets of soybean oil, and a few boxes of fruit. There were really a lot of things. In addition to fruits, they were all distributed by the original unit. Moreover, village-based team members like Tian Xiaopang also had a subsidy of dozens of yuan a day. Of course, Xiaobai, an extra-staff member, could not enjoy this kind of treatment.

At this time, a girl of six or seven years old walked out of the door of the house, wearing a big apron, and was almost hanging down to the ground. She walked timidly to the village chief Bao and whispered "Grandpa, Village Chief".

Village Chief Bao touched the little girl's yellow hair lovingly: "Nizi, you have more people in your family to import. This is Uncle Tian, ​​who is stationed in our village. I will live in your house from now on and take good care of you."

Then he turned to Tian Xiaopang: "This is Xiaoya. Don't look at it, she is the head of this family. She is responsible for big things and small things inside and outside. The poor children will be the ones who have already taken the lead."

Tian Yuan also looked at the little girl carefully: her thin face was obviously a little malnourished. Her eyes looked particularly big, and she was looking at him at this moment. When she saw Xiaobai holding in his hand, her big eyes lit up instantly.

In an instant, Tian Xiaopang had the illusion that it was dawn: obviously, poverty and hardship did not erase the little girl's spirituality.

Involuntarily, Tian Xiaopang grabbed the back of his head hard. He was a little confused. Why did he feel like a girl fall from the sky when he saw this little girl?

It’s not that the little fat man has any bad hobbies, it’s just a feeling of familiarity and closeness, as if they were not strangers who had met for the first time, but relatives who had been together for a long time. Especially the flint bead between the eyebrows, it became active again, giving Tian Xiaopang the feeling that the bead seemed to express a kind of affection and joy.

Could it be that this is fate? When he came to his senses, he saw Xiaobai approaching the little girl, stretching his claws, and stuffing candy into the little girl's hand. It seems that it is not only him, but the little monkey must also have a deep feeling.

Not bad, Tian Xiaopang is more satisfied with the village chief’s arrangement.

Everyone entered the room and a heat came to their faces. The outer room was a kitchen, a dirt stove, and there was air flowing from it, and firewood was burning in the stove pit.

When I arrived at the inner room, facing south was a large kang, and there were a few simple furniture on the ground. Although it was simple, it was not dirty. Obviously, this little mistress in the house was quite competent.

The little girl arranged for everyone to sit down. As for her brother, she swayed around the ground, looking at this and that, and then making an unknown smirk.

Tian Yuan took out some fruits, and Xiao Ya brought a large rice bowl with a wink, took it to the outer room to wash it, and then distributed it to everyone. Tian Yuan noticed that the little guy hadn't eaten it himself. After chatting for a few words, everyone went back to their own houses.

"Uncle Tian, ​​wash your face and have a meal." Xiao Ya called Tian Yuan timidly, then took off the little monkey's clothes happily, and took it outside to shake it. There was a lot of sand on it. Finally, she washed the little monkey's face and claws. She looked like a capable little girl.

Woo-Woo-Da Huang said something in his mouth, slowly moved a kang table, and then brought the food up: corn stubble porridge, potatoes stewed with pickled vegetables, each dish and one meal, simple to shabby.

Xiao Ya may also feel that she had neglected the distinguished guest. She gagged a few times and called Uncle Tian to have a meal, but she could not say anything else.

Tian Yuan's heart trembled: If the child in the city was so old, he would not be so sensible. So he opened his hands and carried the little girl to the kang: "Little girl, right? We will be a family in the future. As the TV said, share blessings and suffer difficulties!"

"Uncle Tian, ​​I don't have a TV at home-" the little girl hummed like a mosquito.

Look at my look—Tian Xiaopang slapped his forehead: "Little girl, stop calling me Uncle Tian, ​​you are so weird, just call me Uncle or Uncle Xiaopang."

"Uncle Xiaopang." Perhaps feeling Tian Yuan's sincerity, the little girl nodded vigorously, and a smile on her face bloomed, as if a flower was blooming in an instant, making Tian Xiaopang's heart melt. He wondered: Why do you see the little girl so close? Is this the legendary fate?

"Xiaobai has a meal." The little girl smiled and wanted to serve the little monkey. Unexpectedly, Xiaobai took out a golden bowl from his backpack and signaled to use this.

Xiaoya was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Xiaobai is so good. She uses iron bowls like her brother, so she can avoid worrying about making bowls." After that, she took the golden bowl to the outer room to wash it. Dahuang also raised his large iron bowl to Xiaobai and shook it, which roughly means: We two are of the same level, both of them are iron rice bowls.

Just an iron bowl - Tian Xiaopang didn't argue. Soon, Xiaoya put half a bowl of corn stubble for Xiaobai, then put two potato strips and pickled cabbage on it, and finally made some soup.

At first, Tian Xiaopang was a little worried. You know, the little monkey is usually very picky in food. What's wrong with today? It's even more delicious. Is it because I'm hungry when riding a bicycle all the way?

"Xiaobai can also use chopsticks, it's so amazing!" Xiaoya praised sincerely. She has always been lonely, and it seems that she has a companion this time.

Dahuang also followed suit. While pulling the food in his mouth, he rolled his eyes and glanced at Xiaobai. His posture seemed to be saying: Let's play together.

It is obvious that Xiaobai is far inferior to him. Tian Yuan watched and killed three large bowls of corn stubble in the blink of an eye, and started serving the fourth bowl again. I guess even if both of them were open, they would have to be dumped into the ancient society.

After having dinner, Tian Yuan couldn't help but feel a big appetite. At this moment, the phone rang. As soon as he saw that it was the "Girl" and he knew it was Qiqige. So he started chatting for a while and asked about the situation of the other party's residence. The other party's side was a ethnic village, and the conditions were more than a hundred times better than here, so he didn't have to worry about it at all.

"Little Pang Pig, I will report to me every night from now on!" Qiqige finally ordered, and Tian Xiaopang could only agree without stopping.

I wonder if this girl can bear this pain. After quitting the phone, Tian Yuan felt sad for a while. Then he picked up his bowl. When the door creaked, Bao Rina walked into the house with two convenient bags: "Oh, I'm going to have a meal, little fat brother, sister-in-law, I'll bring you some leftover New Year chew melons. Don't dislike it, you people in the city don't get used to our rural food."

Tian Yuan hurriedly went to the floor to say hello, and Xiao Ya also went to the floor to take the convenience bag. While she was busy, the village chief brought a large basin into the house, which contained half a sticky bean bun and white flour bean stuffed steamed buns.
