After hearing this, Aunt Wang, the village chief's daughter-in-law, and Qiu Xi, his daughter-in-law, also turned to look at the village chief.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Why did you sigh suddenly? Did Goudan and Daya make dad angry again?"

Qiu Xi put down her chopsticks and after saying that, she got up and went to the back room to settle the score with Daya and Goudan.

The village chief shook his head and said solemnly: "The two children are very well-behaved. I'm angry that I don't have the ability to send the two children to school. When the children in the village reach the appropriate age, they can only stay at home and help. live."

Taohua Village is located in a remote location, and there are many mountain roads. It is not easy to go out. Except for going to the town to buy things, the villagers spend most of their time in the village.

Taohua Village originally had a school, but the old man who taught it later became seriously ill and passed away. Without the teacher, the children could no longer continue to read and learn. Over time, the school was abandoned.

If the children want to go to school, they can only go to Dahe Village, which is ten miles away from Taohua Village. Dahe Village is far away, and the villagers are worried that the children will walk on the mountain road to go to school on their own, and they have no time to go to Dahe Village every day to pick up and drop off their children so that they can go to school. The matter was shelved.

Children in the village have followed their parents in the fields since they were young. They have helped their parents work to earn work points at a young age. Although they can grow up slowly, if they are illiterate, they may not be able to read for the rest of their lives. To be trapped in a remote and backward small village.

As the head of a village, the village chief wants all the children in Taohua Village to be able to read and write. He does not expect them to be successful. He only hopes that they can go out and see the big world if they have the opportunity in the future. .

But there is no teacher in the village, and his own cultural level is limited. He can teach some simple addition and subtraction, but he can't do anything else.

Now that the two children are so eager to learn, the village chief can only become anxious and complain that he is not well-educated enough to teach the children in the village more knowledge.

After hearing what the village chief said, Daqing and others knew that he was worried about the children going to school again.

"Dad, don't think about this all the time. Come over for dinner and let's think of other ways to help the children learn and read. This matter will eventually be solved."

Aunt Wang waved to the village chief and said a few words of comfort.

The village chief walked towards the dining table with a serious look on his face, and just as he sat down, he heard an anxious voice.

"Village Chief, is the Village Chief here?"

"Who is it? There is no dog at home, come in."

Daqing, who was sitting next to the door, turned around and responded, then stood up and opened the door curtain.

Jiang Li ran in quickly after hearing this. Daqing was a little surprised when he saw her figure: "Comrade Xiao Jiang? Why are you here?"

"Comrade Xiao Liu just left the Educated Youth Center out of anger. Now he can't be found. Please ask the village chief to ask a few people to help him look for him."

Jiang Li ran up to Da Qing without even taking a breath, and quickly explained her purpose.

"He's missing? What's going on?"

After hearing this, the village chief of the hall stood up suddenly and quickly came to the door.

"I just went out when it got dark and haven't come back yet. Other comrades have already gone looking for us. We just arrived here and are unfamiliar with the place. Please ask the village chief to ask a few people to help us look for him!"

"Dad, I'm going to ask Shang Chaoli and the others to find someone together!"

Daqing said, stuffing the steamed bun in his hand into his mouth, and ran out with big steps.

"Excuse me, village chief. You can continue eating. I'm going to find someone first!"

After Jiang Li finished speaking, she quickly chased after him.

"It's hard to walk on the mountain road in the dark, so be careful!"

The village chief shouted behind him, but the yard was empty, and Jiang Li and Daqing had long since disappeared.

Aunt Wang and Qiu Xi also came out after hearing the sound.

"Dad, what's going on? Who's missing?"

"A lesbian from the Educated Youth Center, what is this kid doing if she doesn't just stay at the Educated Youth Center and run out so late? I'll go out and look for her!"

The village chief stamped his feet anxiously, and walked out quickly without even bothering to eat. "Dad, dad, slow down!"

Qiu Xi exclaimed and hurriedly went back to the house and picked up the crutch that the village chief usually used: "Mom, you eat with the two children first, and I will follow dad!"

After Qiu Xi finished speaking, she hurriedly ran out. Aunt Wang hurriedly patted her thigh and shouted at Qiu Xi's back: "You all, be careful!"

-

Daqing, who was the first to run out, came to Lu Chaoli's house, which was closest to their home.

"Chaoli, is Chaoli at home? Something happened!"

Lu Chaoli, who was eating, quickly put down his bowls and chopsticks and ran out: "Brother Daqing? What happened?"

"A female educated youth from the Educated Youth Office is missing. Come out quickly and help look for her. I'll call a few more people!"

After Daqing said that, he turned around and ran out. Lu Chaoli hurried back to the house to get a flashlight and ran out before he could explain to Lu's father and mother.

As soon as he went out, he met Jiang Li, who later ran out from the village chief's house. Lu Chaoli ran up to Jiang Li in a few strides.

"Comrade Xiao Jiang? Why are you here?"

"I came to the village chief to help find someone, Liu Jiayi, Liu Jiayi is missing!"

Jiang Li explained to Lu Chaoli while holding her angry stomach.

"Comrade Xiao Jiang, don't worry, I'll go find someone right now!"

"Let's go together!"

After Jiang Li finished speaking, she walked forward quickly, and Lu Chaoli matched her pace and followed her to find someone.

"Comrade Xiao Liu, Comrade Xiao Liu!"

"Liu Jiayi, Liu Jiayi, where are you?"

After going to Lu Chaoli's house, Daqing ran to Huzi and Tiezhu's house and called the door. After hearing this, the young and strong young men in the village took flashlights and came out to help find people. Suddenly, the sound came from all over Taohua Village. The shouts of the crowd.

"Comrade Xiao Liu, Comrade Xiao Liu, where are you?"

"Comrade Xiao Liu, it's dangerous in the mountains after dark. Come back quickly!"

Everyone started searching everywhere in Peach Blossom Village, and the entire forest was illuminated by flashlights.

However, they searched all corners of the village but could not find Liu Jiayi, so they had to set their sights on the mountain road leaving Taohua Village, and they all walked towards that mountain road with flashlights.

"Comrade Xiao Liu, Comrade Xiao Liu, where are you?"

"Comrade Xiao Liu, come back quickly!"

Everyone shouted while walking, and met Xu Yuanyuan and others on the mountain road who were also looking for Liu Jiayi.

It was dark and difficult to walk on the mountain road, and a few people had just come out in a hurry and forgot to bring flashlights. Now they were extra careful when walking on the mountain road, and their pace slowed down a bit.

"Jiayi, Jiayi, where are you? Can you come out quickly? I won't be angry with you anymore. Come back quickly!"

Li Zhixiu's voice was choked and she blamed herself for Liu Jiayi's running away.

"Zhixiu, please stop crying. I don't blame you for this. She won't be able to walk far by herself. Let's go look for her further ahead!"

The voices of Xu Yuanyuan and Li Zhixiu came from the front, and Jiang Li quickly ran towards them after hearing it.
