With Li Rui's help, Ling Shuyao's courage grew. She stood at the door of the west room and lifted the curtain to look at the central room, asking, "Is it still there?" Li Rui shuddered and said, "Here, holy sh * t, you … do you have something on you that attracts animals? How come first a scorpion stung you, then a snake crawled into your bed? You've encountered all sorts of strange things … where did this snake come from? Did it really fall from the roof? " Ling Shuyao thought carefully and said, "It seems so. I was sleeping soundly when something suddenly fell on my pillow. I ignored it. After a while, I felt something crawling on my neck. It was cold. I grabbed it with my hand and it was soft and slippery. I didn't know what it was. I took out my phone and looked at it. Oh my god, it almost scared me to death! "
Li Rui muttered to himself for a while and said, "This kind of situation is easy to avoid. How about this, tomorrow we'll buy a mosquito net and wrap the single bed up. Then you won't have to worry about snakes and scorpions crawling on your body anymore." Ling Shuyao said in pain, "But I'm scared too. Can we find an apartment to live in? I've really had enough. I … I'm really scared to death. " Li Rui said, "If you want an apartment, you can only go to the village. But this place is quite far from the Dragon King's village. It takes a lot of time to get there every day. You also have to consider the time to cook and eat. Ay, just bear with it, okay?"
Ling Shuyao didn't say anything. It was obvious that she was struggling with her thoughts.
Li Rui continued, "If you're really scared, you can move the single bed in front of the kang in the west room and sleep in the same room as me." Ling Shuyao flew into a rage out of humiliation and spat, "Pei, in your dreams. What kind of person do you take me for?" Li Rui said, "I'm doing this for your own good. Aren't I afraid that you're a coward? Besides, it's not like I'm sleeping in the same bed as you. What do you mean by that? " Ling Shuyao said resentfully, "That won't do. Don't you understand that there are differences between men and women?" Li Rui yawned and said, "Just pretend that I didn't say anything. Alright, I'm going back to sleep." He lifted his leg and left.
Ling Shuyao rushed up to stop him and said, "Don't go yet. You … you get that snake away from me. Kill it!" Li Rui said, "Snakes are intelligent animals. It is said that they are very vengeful. It is better not to kill them." Ling Shuyao said, "Then get rid of it. It's so disgusting and scary. I'm going to have nightmares tonight."
Li Rui nodded and returned to the single bed. He slowly bent down and suddenly reached out and grabbed the back of the little snake's head.
Ling Shuyao was surprised and impressed when she saw that Li Rui's attack was as fast as lightning. She murmured, "You're really something!" Li Rui raised the little snake and pretended to throw it at her. Ling Shuyao was so scared that she screamed and ran back to the West Room to hide. She shouted, "You're too wicked. You're not human. You want to die …"
Li Rui laughed and walked out of the room with the little snake in his hand. He walked to the pigsty and threw it into the pigsty. He turned back to the room and said, "Can you sleep now?" Ling Shuyao pursed her lips and bit them. She stared blankly at her single bed. She didn't dare to sleep there. Li Rui ignored her and went back to the Kang bed in the West Room to sleep.
When he woke up the next morning, Li Rui saw that Ling Shuyao had dark circles under her eyes again. Her beautiful red phoenix eyes were bloodshot. He guessed that she probably didn't sleep last night. He thought about how she was a pampered female leader in the city and how she had to come to the mountain village to endure the threats of snakes and scorpions. He couldn't bear it and said, "After we finish our business today, I'll buy you a mosquito net and put it on your single bed. I guarantee that there won't be any more mistakes in the future." Ling Shuyao nodded gloomily and covered her mouth to yawn.
After breakfast, Ling Shuyao said, "Let's go to the village for dinner tonight and find a bath to take a bath." Li Rui hadn't showered for a week, so he naturally nodded in agreement. He thought to himself, this beautiful female leader is the same as me. She hasn't showered for a week. Does that white flesh of hers already smell?
At 9: 30 in the morning, the Poverty Relief Mobilization Conference was held again. Many people came today. There were three layers of people inside and three layers outside. There were at least two to three hundred people. Children ran back and forth in front of the stage. The dogs also joined in the fun. A large number of women, either single or holding their children, crowded in the innermost area, ready to receive the legendary gifts at any time. As for the men, there weren't many. There were only 60 to 70 of them.
Li Rui was a little disappointed when he saw this scene. The poverty relief work depended on the backbone of each family. Only when the men were interested in this matter could the work be carried out smoothly. On the other hand, it didn't matter if the women were interested or not. After all, the women in the village were doing some auxiliary work like taking care of the children and feeding the livestock. Not many of them could support the whole family.
He looked around and suddenly found a young woman with snow-white skin and a beautiful face in the left corner. She had a ponytail, an oval-shaped face, beautiful eyebrows, and beautiful eyes. What was more eye-catching was her sharp and delicate snow-white chin. It was like the tip of a melon seed, which made people's eyes light up. She was slim and about 1.6 meters tall. She stood motionless in the crowd with a faint smile on her face. Although she didn't do anything to please the crowd, her beauty easily betrayed her. She was displayed in Li Rui's line of sight.
Li Rui found her somewhat familiar. After thinking carefully, he suddenly remembered that she was the little wife he had met on his first night in Little Dragon King Village when he was looking for a clinic for Ling Shuyao on the way there. At that time, he asked her for directions. She was honest, soft-spoken, and gentle. She gave him a good impression. He didn't expect to have the chance to see her again. What was even more unexpected was that she was so young and beautiful. It was dark at that time, so he didn't notice this. He thought to himself, "The ancients said that there are plenty of fish in the sea. This saying is true."
The young woman unintentionally found Li Rui looking at her. She quickly lowered her head and appeared to be very shy. Li Rui smiled and began to host the meeting.
The content of this meeting was exactly the same as yesterday's drill. However, in order to give out the gifts, Li Rui and Ling Shuyao designed a few question-and-answer activities. First, they explained the significance of this poverty relief activity to the villagers. Then, they talked about some basic concepts of poverty relief. Next, they talked about some of the most important issues to pay attention to. Finally, they explained in detail some of the corresponding poverty relief measures introduced by the city and county. After that, it was time for the question-and-answer activities. It was also time for the villagers to receive the gifts that they had been looking forward to.
Before the question-and-answer activities began, Li Rui had already said everything that needed to be said. He spoke until his mouth was dry. However, the villagers below were not very interested. From time to time, some people would kick up a fuss and ask when the gifts would be given out. Many women would whisper and chat while he was talking. Some even laughed and laughed. They didn't take his words to heart.
Li Rui knew that the meeting wouldn't be very good. He was very disappointed and felt very gloomy. Seeing that these poor families were so poor, they didn't think about how to actively help themselves. Instead, they were only focused on the small profits in front of them. They deserved to be poor. Therefore, the idea of giving out gifts to them faded. He thought to himself that it would be enough to give out a few gifts to a few people. As for the remaining gifts, he would find an opportunity to give them to the poor families who actively participated in the poverty relief activity, such as Hu Liquan's family.
He raised the loudspeaker and asked the first question, "Dear villagers, what measures have the city and county introduced for this poverty relief activity? If you know, please raise your hand. "
Everyone raised their hands.
Li Rui smiled lazily and raised his hand to point at a short and fat woman who was closest to the stage. She was carrying a child and said, "You answer." This woman didn't expect that she would be chosen. She was very surprised. She looked left and right and saw that everyone was looking at her with jealousy. She laughed and scratched her head and said, "Introduced … Uh … Let me think. Haha … I was too busy talking just now and didn't listen carefully. Leader, can you give me a reminder? Haha, haha. "
Everyone laughed when they heard that.
Li Rui was so angry that his face was about to turn green. He didn't want to lose his temper with her, so he ignored her and pointed at another man who raised his hand and said, "You answer."
That man was one of the young men who looked for Li Rui yesterday to ask about poverty relief methods. He was very interested in this poverty relief activity and had studied it in private for many days. He was already familiar with the city and county's policies. When he heard the question, he answered generously, "There's a mutual aid poverty relief foundation set up in the county, small loans in the villages, and pairs to help each other …"
He said a set of words that stunned the surrounding villagers. Li Rui was also very satisfied. He asked Ling Shuyao to give him two towels, a bar of soap, and a bag of washing powder.
Ling Shuyao whispered, "Why did you give him so much?" Li Rui gave her a look, indicating that she should just give it to him and not ask so many questions.
The young man took four gifts and went down. The villagers were excited and shouted one by one, "Leader, please continue to ask questions." "I'll answer the next one!" "No, I want a gift too!"
The few women in front of the stage were surrounded by people behind them and directly rushed to the stage. The short and fat woman who didn't answer Li Rui's question just now saw the pile of gifts in front of her and shamelessly reached out to take them.
Li Rui turned pale with fright and hurriedly said to Ling Shuyao, "Stop her!"
Ling Shuyao also hurriedly ran over and pushed her hand away. She said coldly, "You didn't answer the question, so how can you take them? Don't you have any shame? "
These gifts were personally bought by Ling Shuyao. Although they didn't have much value in her heart, she didn't want this shameless village woman to casually take them, so she didn't hold back in her words.
