The old ancestor became the favorite of the five brothers

Chapter 225 You have to go to school

The policeman on the side stepped forward: "You mean Li Xiaohui's mother?"

Mu Ranran nodded: "Yes."

"But as far as we know, his mother was sick and bedridden a year ago. Logically speaking, she shouldn't be here."

Mu Ranran frowned beautifully, and didn't speak for a long time.

Mu Tingzhou looked at her: "Don't think about it, let's go to Li Xiaohui's house first."

"Ah."

Mu Ranran nodded and followed Gu Rongsen into the car.

Mu Tingzhou followed the police into the police car and led the way for Gu Rongsen.

As Lao Wang said, Li Xiaohui's home is in a village not far from the capital, but I don't know why.

Obviously not far away, but the road here is very difficult to walk.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be like this.

It was clearly possible to arrive in an hour, but due to road conditions, it took two hours to arrive.

The car drove on the small road and stopped slowly until the end of the village.

Mu Ranran got out of the car, looked at the crooked house in front of her, and always felt that a gust of wind could blow it down.

She watched, and the hand hanging by her side was held by someone.

She raised her head and looked at the people around her, but she happened to meet Gu Rongsen's eyes.

"Let's go."

"Ah."

A group of people walked inside, pushed open the old door that was about to fall, and the furnishings in the room were clear at a glance.

Because, almost nothing.

A dilapidated wooden table, a few benches that don't look very strong, and a big pot.

Walking inside, there is a wooden bed by the window, without a mattress.

There was only one thin quilt.

On it lay an old woman.

About one meter away from the big bed, there is a small bed, a small bed without even a thin quilt.

The things in the house are simple, but they still look clean.

Perhaps the old lady on the bed hadn't seen so many people for a long time. When she saw Mu Ranran and the others, she was a little excited and wanted to get up.

But when she saw the policeman in police uniform, she suddenly burst into tears.

Mu Ranran watched her slowly raise her hand, pointing to the wall, her lips moved, but she couldn't make a sound.

Mu Ranran turned her head and looked at the direction she pointed.

It turned out that there was a family portrait hanging there.

Just as Mu Ranran was about to walk over, she heard footsteps, and several people turned their heads at the same time, and saw a little girl about ten years old carrying a big basket, which was full of branches and wood.

She put down the back basket and walked into the room, but she was not surprised at all when she saw the people in the room. They had an immature face, but their eyes were very calm.

The little girl spoke in a calm tone: "You are here."

Mu Ranran looked at her, then squatted down carefully, keeping her eye level.

"Little sister, where's your mother?"

"Ran."

As the little girl spoke, there was no expression on her face, nor did she change her tone.

Mu Ranran subconsciously looked up at Gu Rongsen who was standing beside her.

The little girl said again: "There are only me and grandma in this family now. When grandpa went up the mountain to collect medicine the year before last, he accidentally fell down from the mountain and died. Grandma fell ill last year. After grandma fell ill, dad died. She has been working outside and will send us money back from time to time, but the family still owes a lot of foreign debts. At the beginning of this year, my mother said she didn’t want to live like this anymore, and she left before my father came back.”

The policeman standing aside looked at her: "The phone call from yesterday..."

The little girl looked up: "I picked it up."

Mu Ranran: "You know..."

The little girl interrupted her: "I know, Dad fell from the high stand and fell to his death. The police uncle told me about it on the phone yesterday."

The little girl's voice fell, and a whimper sounded behind everyone.

The little girl avoided Mu Ranran, went to bed quickly, reached out and patted the old lady gently.

"It's okay grandma, don't worry, Xinxin will take care of you, and Xinxin will not leave you."

The little girl spoke without changing her tone, but she shed tears.

It fell on the thin quilt on the old lady's body, making a clattering sound.

Everyone present was silent, and the scene in front of her made Mu Ranran feel as if her heart had been hit by something.

feeling bad.

She was obviously only less than ten years old, and she was supposed to be a carefree grade, but she had already experienced so many things that she shouldn't have experienced.

After a long while, the little girl calmed down the old lady's emotions, and got out of bed.

"Let's go out and talk, I don't want grandma to hear."

"it is good."

Several people followed the little girl and stopped in the yard.

The little girl turned her head: "Wait for me a moment."

As he said that, he turned around and went back. After a while, he came out with a notebook and handed it to the policeman standing at the front.

"This is my household registration book. My name is Li Xinxin, and I am Li Xiaohui's daughter. My father is the only daughter."

The policeman looked at Mu Tingzhou, reached out to take the household registration book and opened it, which clearly read - head of household: Li Xiaohui.

Turned to the next page, name: Li Xinxin, relationship with the head of the household: daughter.

Mu Ranran looked at her: "Little sister, are you still studying?"

Li Xinxin shook her head: "No more, since my mother left, I can only drop out of school to take care of my grandma."

"Then do you still want to study? I can help you."

Mu Ranran clearly saw her eyes light up, but then quickly dimmed again.

"I can't go to school anymore, sister, let's talk about compensation."

"How reasonable do you think?"

"I……"

A child who is only ten years old naturally doesn't know how much she should say at this time.

She doesn't have such a big concept of money yet, and she doesn't know how much money is enough for her and grandma to live on.

The eyes that had been calm all this time fluctuated a little.

She raised her head and looked at Mu Ranran with a trace of innocence unique to children.

"Sister, how much can you give me? My requirements are not high. Before I can be independent, you only need to be responsible for grandma's medical expenses. Otherwise, I..."

Li Xinxin's voice became smaller and smaller, and she looked at Mu Ranran with a wandering look in her eyes.

There is really no way for such a child not to make people feel distressed.

Mu Ranran looked at her and knelt down again.

"Xinxin, my sister has a plan, can you listen to it?"

Li Xinxin nodded: "Yes."

"Sister, I can take you to the capital. When we leave this place, I will find a professional nurse to take care of your grandma until she dies. You don't need to worry about all the expenses, but you have to go to school."

"go to school???"

Li Xinxin's eyes were filled with anticipation and forbearance.

Mu Ranran looked at her with firm eyes: "Yes, go to school."
