Volume 1 Chapter 342 A Warm Welcome
Everyone was in high spirits along the way. After all, here they truly experienced some happiness that they had never been able to enjoy in the town before.
We walked happily along the way, and it seemed not so difficult at all. In the afternoon, we arrived at the place where we were going to donate.
We could see the people living here from afar. Everyone had a smile on their face and was wearing their latest clothes, welcoming us.
When we got there, we had already heard about the situation in this village from the guide. This place is deep in the mountains and very far away from the outside world. The signal is not very good, so the news is very isolated. There are 80 households in this village, but for some reason, there are 12 deaf children here.
Su Muyan had already had some basic understanding of this place before, but what she saw on paper was completely different from what she saw with her own eyes.
When everyone got closer, they saw that every villager here had a tanned face, but each of them was smiling very happily, showing their white teeth.
They looked very kind, and the village chief immediately stepped out from the crowd and said, "We are very welcome to come to Laolin Village and help us."
Su Muyan could not quite understand the way the old village chief spoke, so the guide immediately translated it for her in standard Mandarin.
Su Muyan and her team all said after hearing this: "We are also very happy to be here to meet you all."
Since everyone had been walking for a long time, the village chief noticed that everyone was tired despite being happy, and he mumbled a long speech to the guide.
Then the villagers behind him heard these words and immediately dispersed, just when everyone was confused about what was going on.
The guide said, "The village chief noticed that you were a little tired, so he asked each household to prepare food. When they got there, they told us to take us to rest first. We can discuss other matters after we have rested and eaten."
After hearing this, Su Muyan looked at the village chief and saw a kind smile on his dark face, so she smiled and nodded.
Usually when you see this scene, you will be busy taking the lead and walking forward, and don't forget to turn around and wave to signal everyone to follow.
Everyone knew that this was the place where they were going to rest.
So they immediately followed behind one by one, walked around a stream, passed through a peach blossom forest, walked calmly through the gazes of a group of children, and finally arrived at a farmhouse.
Although it is called a farmhouse, it looks very spacious, and there are many thatched houses. Everyone knows that this is probably a place used for entertaining guests.
Although these thatched houses looked very shabby and even had some old grass on them, no one disliked them.
The two happily found a room to put their things, and then went to the stream they had just come to to wash their hands.
There is a doctor in the team, and he asked everyone to treat the blisters on the soles of their feet as soon as possible.
The children were originally looking at them, their eyes revealing curiosity and an indescribable feeling, but when they saw everyone taking off their shoes and then one by one starting to squeeze the blisters on the soles of their feet, pity appeared in their eyes.
There was even a pink and tender little girl with tears in her eyes, her mouth pouting, and she was breathing heavily.
It looked like she wanted to use her hoo-hoo to make the pain fly away!
Everyone laughed when they saw this scene. The chubby little girl who had just taken out the camera to take pictures of everyone was called Xiao Wu. She immediately took out a handful of candies from her bag and distributed them to the children.
When they saw the children holding the candies wrapped in colorful lightning-shining wrappers under the sunlight, their eyes showed great surprise. Some younger children even began to swallow their saliva unconsciously.
This scene brought tears to the eyes of the team members who had lived a humorous life since childhood.
No one would have thought that when living conditions were so good, there would be children who would show such great surprise just because of an ordinary candy.
Everyone felt as if they were stung by a bee, and felt a sharp pain in their heart.
Xiao Wu quickly distributed five more candies to each person.
When we saw them carefully holding the candies in their hands and then reluctantly putting them into their pockets, our hearts ached again.
The two little devils seemed to have grown sensible at this moment. Su Muyan looked over and saw that there was even some redness in her daughter's eyes.
At this moment, perhaps the two children that I have cherished in the palm of my hand have truly grown up!
Everyone was silent for a while, then quickly started playing with the children and treating the wounds on their feet. After a while, the village chief came to call everyone over for dinner.
Although we don’t speak the same language, humans are advanced animals and can understand each other’s meaning through body language.
The village chief simply demonstrated the action of eating, and everyone washed their hands and followed him.
An open-air dinner was held in the village. It was clean and large banana leaves were spread on the ground, and the food was placed on them. There were eight stalls of different sizes.
Each household brought a pot of food and placed it on the stall in the middle, and then everyone took their family back to the stall next to them.
Under the arrangement of the village chief, they sat at the stall in the middle and looked at the meals served by each household. There were chicken with mushrooms, chicken stewed with mushrooms, wild vegetables, small greens, fried fish, and yam soup. It seemed that everyone had put a lot of effort into each dish.
Everyone enjoyed the meal to their heart's content. Even though things didn't work out, everyone still felt each other's joy and the harmony that came from the heart.
Everyone’s stomach was overwhelmed by these most delicious foods. Although they are not as good as the skills of the city’s star chefs, you have to know that in this world of fireworks, this kind of ordinary life is the most real!
The night gradually darkened, one or two stars quietly climbed up the sky, and the moon hung high above the willows. At this moment, everyone suddenly began to quietly appreciate the billions of stars.
At this time, a small voice said: "It has been a long time since I have seen such a brilliant galaxy!"
Someone nearby immediately chimed in, "Yeah!" "It's been so long since I thought I'd ever see billions of stars this bright again."
You see, life is so simple, a plain meal and a simple scenery.
That’s enough!
