C44 Orphans Grow from Beginning to End

"There are still children of the right age in Tea Village. I am referring to those who have never been to school. The main point is a girl. Her eyes are very big and bright. " Tao Hui found Dao Xiaotong with great care.

At that time, Dao Xiaotong was cutting clothes at the bamboo building. She had a pair of delicate hands. However, she was very meticulous when it came to her work. Usually, cutting a set of clothes would take a month and a half, but she would also be able to obtain clothes that were more delicate and durable than others. This time, What she cut was a colorful tube-shaped skirt. Her fingers were covered with traces of long-term rough work. And the needle holes that were left behind by the needlework turned black.

She was stunned by Tao Huizhen's question. She tilted her head and remembered.

"You're talking about Qiuhe. "

Elder Li used the duster in his hand to brush the yellow cow's fur. The yellow cow's body trembled. Elder Li's hand also trembled slightly.

She finally saw that child. Elder Lee's eyes flashed with the image of a lotus. It couldn't be wrong. Teacher Tao must be referring to her. In the village of Tea Village, The only child who had never been to the elementary school of Big Tea Village to study was Qiuhe. That child, Qiu He. Of course, she was born in Da Tea Village and grew up in Da Tea Village. However, she rarely came to the eastern end of the village to do activities. It wasn't even easy for him to see the Autumn Lotus once. That would require some luck. . .

The last time he saw the Autumn Lotus was a few months ago.

However, it was obvious that the bonfire was celebrating last night. That kid must have appeared again. Teacher Tao would only suddenly ask when he saw her. With her style, She discovered that a child of appropriate age had never gone to Da Tea Village's primary school to study. This must be very difficult for her to understand. She definitely could not turn a blind eye to it. But no matter what, This was a very troublesome problem. Regarding the issue of Qiuhe's school, he and Officer Wang. . . Even Saber Teacher had tried many methods. . . In the end, they had all failed.

"Qiuhe. . . " Dao Xiaotong heard these two words. Her eyes were filled with sorrow. Her shoulders trembled slightly.

Tao Huizhen suddenly realized that the Autumn Lotus she was talking about. . . It must be a child that Li and Dao Xiaotong are familiar with. The two of them had clearly lowered their gazes before shifting them elsewhere to confirm her guess. They seemed to be avoiding her on purpose. For more than a year, they kept their mouths shut about not talking about everything about the autumn lotus. They were trying to put a girl outside of her knowledge. What was their purpose of hiding a child?

Perhaps she was the only one in the entire Great Tea Village who was still in the dark? A young girl called Qiuhe. She was probably a mysterious child who everyone knew about, but did not come to study. Was it only now that she realized it later? She felt that it was not too early for her to discover it, but she also felt fortunate that it was not too late. Right now, she really wanted to break this doubt. What kind of mood did the entire village have? She hid the girl who knew how to dance the Peacock Dance outside of her sight.

"Why didn't she study? She looks like she should be in middle school at her age, but when I look at her, I think. . . I don't think she's cultured. " Tao Huizhen recalled that simple image. In short, the aura she revealed was that of something she was yearning for. It didn't seem like she was cultured at all. Perhaps this kind of judgment was too subjective. Tao Huizhen didn't care about her own judgment. She didn't have time to think about anything else. "Where is Qiuhe's home? I plan to go and understand the situation. " Tao Huizhen looked straight at Elder Li and said resolutely.

On Elder Li's oily forehead, fine beads of sweat flowed into the creases on his forehead. While he was hesitating, his eyebrows were filled with worry. He just stood there and gently patted his old friend. The yellow cow wagged its tail. At this moment, time seemed to slow down.

Tao Huizhen waited for the old man's response.

Dao Xiaotong rolled her eyes nervously. She alternated between looking at Elder Li and Tao Huizhen. She did not understand why the matter of Qiuhe would suddenly be brought up again.

Elder Li finally moved. He changed his posture and patted the Yellow Ox's back. His turbid eyes looked towards the west side of Tea Village. He smiled faintly and said, "In my opinion, I don't want Teacher Tao to get involved in this mess. Actually, we also hope that the child can study. I still remember when we just woke up the education point of Da Tea Village Primary School, Zhang Luo, we didn't leave behind a child. Naturally, we went to the door of the Qiuhe family. . . "

"Her family lives on the west side of the village. There's a mud house at the foot of Da Tea Mountain. That's why you don't see her often. One at the village entrance, and the other at the end of the village. Her family said that she is the poorest family in the village. That was not impossible, as there was still no electricity at home. I still remember the first time Officer Wang and I came to our house, That child's eyes were sending me the signal that she desperately wanted to study. I think that's the signal. However. . . She was the spiritual pillar of the family of three. It was not easy for Qiuhe to support the family by herself. In her grandfather's words, She needs to work, and doesn't have time to do anything else. " Elder Li said, "You know about Teacher Tao. There are some things that outsiders don't easily get involved in. No matter how we try to persuade him, he is still from our own standpoint. And from the child's family point of view. . . Even Qiuhe's grandfather and grandmother hoped that she would stay by her side at all times. That was what the two old men relied on for survival, and also their spiritual sustenance. You're a cultured person. You know better than anyone that the reason why people live more exciting than anything in the world has a lot to do with their spirit. Spiritual faith is actually something that runs through life. "

The old man stopped slapping the old yellow cow. " Later on, we insisted on going a few more times, but in the end, there was nothing to be happy about. We had to give up. Da Tea Village Primary School had been established for three years. That child, Qiuhe, had been living alone for five or six years. She grew up with the Great Tea Village and the Great Tea Village Primary School. I think. . . No one will be able to break her life anymore. Ever since Teacher Tao started teaching, I didn't intend to tell her about this matter. I also didn't intentionally hide it from you. Until now, I know about Teacher Tao. No matter what I say, you must pay a visit to Qiuhe's house. Even though I don't want you to go, even if it's a very troublesome problem. . . You will crash into the south wall. Hahaha, that's all. That kid's house is the only mud house. You just have to keep walking towards the end of the village. When you reach the opposite side of the small monastery, you will be able to see it. "

Elder Li laughed happily. In his memories, It was inevitable that he would think of the clay house that was on the verge of collapse in the storm. Perhaps Tao Huizhen could really create a miracle. That child, Qiuhe, would be a good seedling. Even though Elder Li often kept silent. However, Qiuhe was often obsessed with the atmosphere of Da Tea Village Primary School's study. She often danced by herself. Elder Li was well aware of this.

"She's still a child at school. Why did she become the spiritual pillar of the family and the support of her grandparents?" Tao Huizhen listened very carefully and could not help but wonder why Qiuhe would support a family that should not have been hers.

However, before she could finish speaking, Tao Huizhen's face suddenly changed shape. It twitched very badly. The thought that popped up in her mind immediately gave her the answer to the question. She tried to open her mouth and say, "Is Qiuhe's parents not around anymore?"

"Yes, Teacher Tao. That child was an orphan who lost his parents ten years ago. He relies on his grandfather and parents. " Old Master Li.

"Has it been ten years?" Tao Huizhen softly chewed on this word that represented a long period of time. She could feel the flow of time from the lines of the words. In ten years, one could imagine the growth of Autumn Lotus. She must have experienced a lot of extraordinary things. Suddenly, in Tao Huizhen's mind. . . She could not help but imagine Qiu He's pair of eyes, which were filled with the soreness, sweetness, and spiciness of a child's understanding of life.

Tao Huizhen thought, I must pay a visit. Qiuhe, no matter how difficult it is, I will go.

Even though she now understood why Elder Li and Officer Wang had repeatedly failed, she might still suffer. But she was willing to try again. This time, she seemed to have a premonition that there was some sort of connection that was guiding her. She walked forward.

Elder Li nodded and said, "To be more precise, it's been more than ten years. " He turned his head to look at the pale face. Dao Xiaotong, who was breathing rapidly, seemed to have a heart attack. She looked like she was in pain. "Every time Qiuhe is mentioned, Dao Mentor will be very excited. Because Qiuhe's fate is the same as Saber Master's. On that day ten years ago, two children from Dai Village became orphans at the same time. "

Tao Huizhen's gaze landed on Dao Xiaotong. When she saw Dao Xiaotong's sorrowful expression, she felt that the world was spinning. Her body was falling so hard that her legs could not support it. She came to a realization and naturally thought of the story that Dao Xiaotong had told her in the past. It turned out that. . . Ten years ago, she and Dao Xiaotong's father had walked into the depths of the Tea Mountain. The young couple who had created a peaceful home for the Green Peacock and had never returned. . . Were they Qiuhe's parents?

Peacock,

Peacock.

Peacock.

Tao Huizhen felt pained. Without saying another word, she walked straight into the depths of the Great Tea Village.

Elder Li and Dao Xiaotong understood it very well. No one could stop her. Why did he stop her? Why not let her go? Perhaps Qiuhe was also looking forward to her arrival. Perhaps even the two of them had actually placed a hope on Tao Huizhen from the bottom of their hearts.

They hoped that Tao Huizhen would get what she wanted.
