Dressed as a cannon fodder, her mother became popular in variety shows

Chapter 53 The Heart of Compassion
Most of the villagers are simple, kind and honest people, and most of the people who come to watch the movie are left-behind elderly people.

Except for children playing and playing, there are hardly any young people in their 30s and [-]s.

There are also unemployed bachelors in their 40s wandering around.

Teacher Yu sat among the old people without any airs, chatting with them.

Xu Yifei also showed her kindness in a rare way, not only chatting with the villagers, but even willing to take care of the little dirty child with a snotty face.

The atmosphere at the scene was incomparably harmonious, and Ji Anzhi had no intention of disliking it.

Once she was the queen mother of a country, caring for the people has become her instinct.

She often educated Emperor Jing Yuan to visit the people more and listen to the real voices of the people.

Above the court, what you hear is not necessarily true.

Although she is not the empress dowager now, she also has a compassionate heart.

There was also a circle of people around her, and what attracted her attention was an old lady in her 80s beside her.

The old man's eyes were a little dull, and he didn't know what he was talking about in his mouth.

Ji Anzhi asked the villagers around her with some doubts.

"The old lady has been talking, can you understand what she is saying?"

Hearing her curious question, an aunt in her 50s said with an ordinary expression:
"Grandma Wu is sick. She's always been talking about it lately. I heard that her mind has started to get confused, and she doesn't remember much anymore."

Ji Anzhi saw that the old lady's hair was messed up, and her clothes seemed to have not been changed for many days, and he couldn't help feeling sympathetic.

Then he asked: "Where is the old lady's children and grandchildren? Is she a lonely old man?"

The aunt waved her hand and said in a low voice:
"Grandma Wu has three sons and two daughters. How could she be a widowed old man? It's her son and daughter-in-law who don't care about her."

Ji Anzhi was a little surprised. It's the 21st century, and there are still children who don't care about the elderly?

The old lady went on to say:
"It's also her fault that her own bowl of water is not level. When she was young, she was partial to the eldest son. When she was able to do things, she helped the eldest son cook, wash clothes and look after the children.

The second son didn't respond to how he shouted, and he would say bad things about the second son when he met everyone. The younger son also paid a lot of money. He didn't even help to take a bath, wishing he could just kick her out, the youngest son wouldn't even show up. "

Ji Anzhi didn't expect this to happen, she had imagined her later life.

After all, Emperor Jing Yuan was not her own. Although the two had no major conflicts, they also disagreed in many points of view. Without a biological son, Sun Chenghuan, even the Queen Mother might not be able to die well.

She didn't expect that even if she had children, she would still be so miserable when she got old.

"Then why not just send her to a nursing home? It shouldn't cost much now."

The old lady sneered and said:
"Even if you don't need much money, you still have to pay for it. If you want less money, the old man will basically die if you go. If you have a lot of money, which son or daughter is willing to pay?

What's more, if there are sons and daughters who send the elderly to nursing homes, isn't that blatantly unfilial? Her children also need to save face, except for her two daughters who come back from time to time to take care of them. The son and daughter-in-law don't care at all, which is really pitiful . "

Ji Anzhi didn't know what to say after hearing this, and was somewhat depressed.

An Lin sat not far from her, listening to their conversation verbatim.

Seeing that her complexion was not very good, she said:
"Anzhi, it's too noisy here, do you want me to take a walk with you?"

Ji An was taken aback, looked up and saw An Lin, nodded and smiled, then stood up.

The two walked towards the east together. There was a small river in the east. The river pond was full of lotus flowers and leaves. After a gust of wind, they could still smell a strong fragrance.

A little farther away from the crowd, it is indeed much quieter, and there is a cameraman behind them, so I don't worry about safety.

Hearing the sound of insects, my heart also calmed down.

An Lin smiled and said, "Why, do you feel sad when you see the old lady is pitiful?"

Ji Anzhi shook his head, "I just think it's pitiful to be old, no matter whether you have children or not."

An Lin chuckled, "I thought you were a goddess who didn't know the sufferings of the world, but I didn't expect you to have such a sentimental side. For the old people here, getting old is really pitiful. Their children and grandchildren can't take care of themselves. Filial piety does not have much ability."

Ji Anzhi didn't believe what she said, her expression was clearly there, and An Lin naturally understood it.

She continued:
"You have also seen that most of the old people left behind in the village, and almost all the young people now buy houses in the urban area. A house in the urban area is too expensive, and you have to do everything you can to make up the down payment, and the monthly loan repayment pressure is even greater. It’s amazing, but everyone who has a little labor has gone out to earn money, and there is no spare time to take care of the elderly.”

Ji Anzhi didn't know much about this society. After hearing An Lin's words, she suddenly realized that she either had enough food and clothing, or lived a carefree life.

Modern people have greater pursuits and live harder.

"But shouldn't the old man just ignore it? Is filial piety so trivial?"

An Lin said helplessly: "It's not that it's not worth mentioning, but it's just that we can't take care of ourselves. Our generation thinks clearly, earn more money when we are young, and try not to cause trouble to our children when we are old.

Life is not easy for everyone. To be honest, having a wife by your side is much better than having children when you get old. Children will have their own families and their own pressures. "

Ji Anzhi didn't expect her topic to change so quickly, and asked with great interest:
"Is it possible that you plan to find another one?"

An Lin shook her head, "I don't have this plan now, I have to put Cancan first, and when she grows up and understands she doesn't need me to take care of her, then I will think about my own happiness, how about you? Get along with Mingmei's father How is it?"

Ji Anzhi didn't deliberately avoid it, she said with a light smile:
"It's okay, we don't pursue vigorous love, we just want to support each other until we grow old."

An Lin looked envious, "It's so good. You two are the original couple when you are together. No matter what happened before, since you are reunited and you can be together, just stay together and don't waste time."

Ji Anzhi nodded, the original sadness because of Grandma Wu was diluted a lot.

Even if she is old, she still has Mingmei and Huo Wanjun by her side, as well as a lot of money, so there is nothing to be anxious about.

"You said, how about I donate a sum of money to the local nursing home after the show?"

An Lin frowned, and said sincerely:
"In my opinion, it's better to say goodbye. If you really want to, after the recording of the show is over, you can donate some money to each elderly family. The amount doesn't need to be too much, as long as it is guaranteed to be in their hands."

Although the society is peaceful now, there are still many unseen shadows.

Sometimes, kindness may not necessarily reach those who really need help.

Ji Anzhi sighed helplessly when he heard this, and said:
"Then I will do charity by myself, and try to let my money be used on those who really need help, and extend a helping hand to the old, weak, sick and disabled in society."

An Lin never doubted that there are people with true love in this world, and encouraged her with a smile:
"That's a good idea. I'll help you when I'm free."

The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had made the most important agreement.

Seeing that it was late, the two planned to go back to the farmhouse, but as soon as they turned around, they heard a loud splash into the water.

Ji Anzhi was startled, she didn't see anything, but the sound was wrong.

The follower brother shouted loudly:
"Someone jumped into the river. I just saw a girl jump into the river."

Another follower brother can swim, he immediately dropped the camera and jumped into the river to save people.

The farmhouse movie has ended, and the villagers have all gone home.

Ji Anzhi hurriedly ran over to call Zhang Haimin, their program team has doctors on staff, just in case.

When Director Zhang heard that someone fell into the water, he was so frightened that he didn't even bother to put on his slippers, and ran over with his bare feet dragging the doctor.

The brother who was following the film dived in time and dragged the girl who fell into the water up.

At this time the girl was still conscious, she struggled and cried:
"Let me go, let me die, I will have no face to face anyone."

This girl looked a little older than Mingmei, at most 22 or [-] years old. What was scary was that her belly was slightly swollen, as if she was pregnant.

An Lin's face became serious, and she said to the director:
"Let's take people back to the house first. This girl is still young, so there must be something hidden. The more people know, the worse it will be for her."

As a mother, she also has a daughter, so she is very considerate.

Ji Anzhi's expression was not very good, she walked to the girl and said softly:
"Don't be afraid, we can help you, you go home with us and change your clothes first."

The girl was startled and frightened, she was frightened just now, she shook her head desperately and said:
"I'm finished, you can't help me, I have a baby in my belly, my mother will kill me!"

Everyone didn't expect her to say that, Ji Anzhi said seriously:
"Your mother is not qualified to kill you. No matter what happens, death is not the only solution."

The girl might have been shocked by Ji Anzhi's words, she looked at her blankly.

The follower brother took the opportunity to carry her to the farmhouse. At this time, all the villagers had left, and only they were cleaning.

Everyone was surprised when they saw the girl they carried back.

Teacher Yu threw away the broom and ran over in a hurry.

"What's going on here? Why is this girl so wet, did she fall into the river?"

Director Zhang's expression was not very good. How could he have thought that something like this happened the first night they came here.

Ji Anzhi and An Lin helped the girl dry off the water on her face, and Mina hurried to get her pajamas and change into her.

Seeing her stomach, Xu Yifei was also taken aback. If she didn't rescue her in time, she would really die.

After the girl's mood gradually stabilized, Teacher Yu asked kindly:
"Girl, what's the matter with you, why can't you think about jumping into the river at such a young age?"

The girl was probably a little scared, she said pitifully:
"I talked about a partner, but my family disagreed with our marriage. My mother thought my partner was poor and couldn't afford the gift money, so she insisted on marrying me to someone else, but I was already pregnant, and it seemed that I couldn't hide it. Yes, my mother knows that she will definitely beat me to death, I really have no choice..."
