The village was dark, with only a few houses with lights on.
Lin Jiaojiao's family is also from the countryside, but she has never seen such a poor place.
Most of the houses are tiled, and only a few are bungalows.
Is this place so backward?
Lin Jiaojiao took out her cell phone and took a look, but there was still no signal.
How do people here survive?
Isolated from the world?
The three of them followed Li Wan's instructions, walked to the end of the village, and stopped in front of a house.
Li Wan pointed at the house and said, "We're here. This is my grandmother's house."
"It's too late. You can stay here today."
Late at night, the three had no choice but to stay.
The main thing is to ask them to go back, but they don’t dare!
Without someone to lead us, we probably won’t be able to get out of the mountain.
Li Wan knocked on the door. While waiting for it to open, Lin Jiaojiao turned around and looked behind her, shining a flashlight behind her.
Empty, there is nothing.
It was strange. As she walked along, she always felt that someone was staring at them.
Is she too suspicious?
She glanced at the instructor and Wang Xiaoshi's expressions and saw that they both looked normal.
At this moment, footsteps were heard inside the door.
With a "creak".
The door was opened.
An elderly grandmother came out with a kind face.
She hugged Li Wan and started crying, "Wanwan, my precious granddaughter, you have suffered so much."
A few people just watched and didn't urge them.
After a while, the old lady remembered that there were guests. She quickly let go of Li Wan and wiped her tears.
"Teacher, two girls, thank you. Come in quickly, we have prepared dinner."
The three of them followed him in. Before closing the door, Lin Jiaojiao took a look outside through the crack.
Dark clouds surged, the bright moon gradually appeared, and the night became a little brighter.
She suddenly met a black eyeball, and her heart stopped beating with fright. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and her body took two steps back uncontrollably and staggered.
"Jiaojiao, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Xiaoshi held Lin Jiaojiao's arm and looked towards the door following her gaze with a puzzled look.
There's nothing.
Lin Jiaojiao shook her head and said, "It's okay."
When she turned around and looked again, it was pitch black outside and there was nothing.
Did she see it wrong?
Lin Jiaojiao couldn't calm down for a long time. She was dazed and was pulled into the main hall by Wang Xiaoshi.
The main room was very simple, made of yellow earth, and there was nothing in it except a small wooden square table and a few small benches.
This family is very poor!
This was Lin Jiaojiao’s first feeling.
Since Li Wan’s parents are so capable, why not help the elderly improve their lives?
At this time, the small square table was filled with dishes and two bottles of juice, which showed that the host was very attentive.
Li Wan's grandmother asked everyone to sit down. Wang Xiaoshi couldn't wait to pick up some food, but was stopped by Lin Jiaojiao.
"What's wrong?" Wang Xiaoshi asked in confusion.
Lin Jiaojiao said, "It's impolite to wait until everyone is here."
Grandma Li Wan looked at the two of them kindly and said, "It's okay, it's okay. We don't have so many rules in this small mountain village. If you're hungry, just eat directly."
Lin Jiaojiao smiled, pressed Wang Xiaoshi's hand, and said to the old lady, "Grandma, where is the toilet? I want to go to the toilet."
The old lady pointed to the left, her fingers trembling.
"Go out and turn left. It's in the yard."
"Thank you, grandma." Lin Jiaojiao said, and pulled Wang Xiaoshi out.
Wang Xiaoshi also wanted to go, so she got up and followed her without refusing.
After leaving the main hall, Lin Jiaojiao saw that there was no one around. She leaned close to Wang Xiaoshi's ear and whispered, "Let's eat later. You can eat after they eat. If they don't eat, we won't eat either. Got it?"
She has a shield that can defend against all attacks.
I just don't know if drug attacks will work, so I'd better be cautious.
Wang Xiaoshi's eyes widened: "You also noticed something was wrong?"
Lin Jiaojiao was a little surprised, "You discovered it too?"
Wang Xiaoshi glared at her and said, "I'm not stupid."
"This place is too poor and doesn't meet the conditions of Li Wan's family at all."
"And didn't you see? Grandma Li Wan walks so unsteadily that she can barely take care of herself, let alone Li Wan."
As the two chatted, they became nervous unconsciously.
He took a deep breath and returned to the living room in a tangled manner.
......
The old lady saw the two of them and hurriedly called out, "Niuniu, come and eat."
Lin Jiaojiao picked up her chopsticks, but instead of picking up any food, she asked, "Grandma, where's Grandpa? Isn't he home?"
Grandma Li Wan picked up a piece of tofu and sighed, "She's sick and is recuperating at the old house."
As he spoke, he saw that no one was eating, so he said enthusiastically, "Eat! You must be tired from walking today. This place is too remote."
Li Wan lowered her head and ate in silence, with no intention of communicating with them at all.
Lin Jiaojiao picked up a piece of tofu and ate it slowly, pretending to ask casually, "Grandma, you are so old, how can you take care of Li Wan?"
Li Wan's grandmother: "I'm old and really can't take care of you, but Wanwan's uncle can."
Wang Xiaoshi continued, "Then why is there no one here?"
Li Wan's grandmother's eating movements became stiff. After a moment of silence, she said, "She hasn't come back yet. She won't be home until tomorrow."
"I see."
After dinner, the old man arranged Lin Jiaojiao and Li Wan in a side room, with the counselor sitting next to them.
Neither of them could sleep because they had something on their minds.
"Jiaojiao, do you think we are overthinking it? I feel like Grandma Li Wan is a very nice person."
