Since they can get the contact information of the little painter, they must know the location of this village.
The only troublesome thing is that you need to contact Yu Yue and ask her to find the organizer for you to inquire about the situation.
It may be difficult to receive results in a short period of time.
At this moment, Luo Xingqi came over dragging his suitcase and asked, "Are you going to Honghe Village?"
Ye Ming's eyes lit up.
"Do you know where this village is?"
Luo Xingqi nodded: "Yes, I know. You don't have to ask anyone else. No matter who you ask, the result will be the same."
"This village is located in the mountains. It is very small and remote. The transportation is very inconvenient and it is almost isolated from the world. It is not even marked on the mobile map."
"Most people in the county have never even heard of it, let alone guide you. Even if you ask for the specific location, it will be difficult to find it."
"It's because of my father that I went to this village several times with him. I know the way to get there."
As the saying goes, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and there is a village with dark willows and bright flowers.
Ye Ming felt this way in his heart at this time.
He breathed a sigh of relief and asked: "Then can you take me to this village?"
Luo Xingqi shook his head: "No! This village is far away from the county seat, and the road is difficult to get there. You can't drive there, you can only ride a motorcycle. Halfway through, you have to switch to walking. It takes at least several hours of walking on the mountain road to get there."
"In this case, once you go back and forth, it will take a whole day just to spend time on the road."
"I want to celebrate my dad's birthday today and have to rush back to work tomorrow morning. I don't have time to take you there."
"I can give you a generous reward to make up for your absence from work." Ye Ming said.
"I don't want your reward." Luo Xingqi shook his head and said, "Well, although I don't have time to take you there, my dad should have time. You go home with me first, and I'll ask my dad. He can always find a way.
To help you."
Ye Ming's eyes lit up: "Okay! Thank you!"
Luo Xingqi's home is not far from the station.
Only four stops away.
Take the bus and you'll be there soon.
Tongshan County is actually a poor county.
The environment in the county town is quite average.
But the community where the Luo family lives has a relatively good environment.
It proves that Luo Xingqi's family's conditions are quite favorable.
This is also normal.
After all, Luo Xingqi is a flight attendant.
Her income level is quite high in a county like this.
Downstairs of Luo's unit, I met a middle-aged man.
Luo Xingqi shouted: "Uncle Zhang."
Uncle Zhang saw Luo Xingqi and said with a smile on his face: "Xingqi, are you back? You're back to celebrate your dad's birthday, right? Hey, who are these two?"
He looked at Ye Ming and Song Songshan curiously.
Luo Xingqi introduced: "This is Ye Ming, a friend of mine, this..."
"Oh, boyfriend? Are you bringing your boyfriend back to meet your parents? I understand, I understand! Haha, even your boyfriend's parents have been brought back. It seems like good things are about to happen! It seems like I'm going to wait to drink from you. It’s a wedding banquet." Uncle Zhang said with a smile.
Luo Xingqi suddenly blushed.
She knew that the other party had misunderstood her relationship with Ye Ming.
She wanted to explain, but Uncle Zhang didn't give her a chance to speak, and said with a smile: "Xingqi, uncle, if you have something else to do, just take the first step."
Before leaving, I didn’t forget to give Ye Ming a few words.
"Young man, it's your first time to meet your parents, so you should prepare some gifts!"
"Look at how rude you are when you come to the door empty-handed!"
"Although Xingqi's father has a good temper and doesn't care about this, he is afraid that others will gossip about him."
"Listen to uncle, go to the supermarket at the door and buy some gifts before entering Xingqi's house."
Luo Xingqi looked helpless.
After Uncle Zhang left, he said to Ye Ming embarrassedly: "Ye Ming, Uncle Zhang is my dad's colleague and we are neighbors. Our two families have a good relationship. He likes to joke the most, don't mind. .”
"It's okay." Ye Ming said lightly.
Naturally, he wouldn't take this little misunderstanding too seriously.
What's more, what the other party said actually makes sense.
The first time I went to Luo Xingqi's house, I wanted to ask her father for help. Due to circumstances, it was not appropriate to go there empty-handed.
Fortunately, I have no shortage of gifts, so I don't need to go to the supermarket.
The three of them entered the building.
Take the elevator to the door of Luo's house.
Luo Xingqi rang the doorbell.
Soon, the door opened.
A middle-aged man wearing black-rimmed glasses appeared at the door.
It is Luo Xingqi's father, Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng was pleasantly surprised when his daughter suddenly appeared outside the door.
"Xingqi! Why are you back? You didn't even call dad in advance so that I could pick you up."
Luo Xingqi went up and gave his father a big hug.
"Dad, happy birthday!"
"Thank you, my baby girl. Come on, come in the house... eh?" Only then did Luo Cheng notice that there were two strangers standing outside the door.
One old and one young.
The young man among them is about the same age as his daughter, and his figure and appearance are similar to her daughter...
Could it be...
Luo Cheng was making some guesses, and Ye Ming smiled and said, "Hello, Uncle Luo. I apologize for disturbing you."
"Come in." Luo Cheng said calmly.
The attitude is not enthusiastic.
Fortunately, it's not too cold.
"Thanks."
Ye Ming smiled slightly.
He took Song Songshan into Luo's house.
But I found that the Luo family's house was very large.
But the decoration is relatively average.
The furniture and so on are also very ordinary.
There are many photos hanging on the wall.
Many of them are photos of Luo's father and some children.
These children's hair is messy, their bodies are dirty, and their clothes are in rags.
But everyone gathered around Father Luo, holding snacks or brand-new textbooks in their hands, smiling very happily.
One of the photos shows father and daughter Luo Chengluo Xingqi posing with a little girl.
The little girl holds a painting in her hands.
And this painting is now on Ye Ming's body.
Ye Ming felt a little surprised and pleasantly surprised.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
After Luo Xingqi saw it, he said: "Ye Ming, sit down quickly."
"My dad is a member of the county's poverty alleviation group."
"These photos were all taken by my father with students from rural primary schools when he was working to alleviate poverty in the countryside below."
"Look, that photo was taken in Honghe Village. There's me in it."
"And that little girl is very talented in painting, but unfortunately her family is too poor to even go to school, let alone learn to paint."
"My dad thought it was such a pity, so he used his salary to buy a lot of brushes and papers and gave them to her."
"Most of my dad's usual salary is donated like this."
"I used my salary to buy this room for my family, and he was reluctant to decorate it."
"No matter how well-decorated the house is, he usually lives alone, so he might as well save the money to help children from poor families."
"That's why our home is so simple. I hope you won't forgive me."
