Chapter 384 The Impoverished White-Headed Village
During lunch, Su Nuannuan finally found out the exact location of Bai Yun's house.

It turns out to be Baitou Village in Chashan Commune.

Baiyun's father was named Bai Tietou, and her mother was named Gao Xiaolan.

Since Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou were Baiyun's teachers, it wouldn't be appropriate for them to visit empty-handed, so they decided to bring some food with them.

In the afternoon, Su Nuannuan, Chu Mingzhou, Xiong Li, and Xi Lun headed towards Baitou Village.

Baitou Village is located deep in the mountains, and the mountain roads are steep and not suitable for cycling. So the four of them decided to walk.

After passing through the bustling county town, at the border between the town and the village, the road was relatively flat, so Su Nuannuan and her three companions rented an oxcart.

The oxcart was very stable, and along the way, Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the southern province.

When they reached the mountain path, they got off the oxcart.

The path of this era was paved by the villagers themselves.

The winding mountain road was narrow and steep, only wide enough for two people to pass at a time, with a bottomless cliff below, which looked quite frightening.

Fortunately, the weather has been dry and there has been no rain during this period, otherwise the road would be even more difficult to travel.

All four were mentally strong and were not frightened by the narrow mountain path.

However, as they walked along the mountain path, Xiong Li and Xi Lun firmly protected Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou on the inside.

Protecting Chu Mingzhou is the mission; protecting Su Nuannuan is simply because of the many delicious foods that have been served to her during this period.

Since Chu Mingzhou came to Su Nuannuan's side, her quality of life has improved dramatically, and Xiong Li and Xi Lun have also benefited a lot from it.

Therefore, they are willing to protect Su Nuannuan.

Most importantly, during the time he spent with Su Nuannuan, Su Nuannuan healed all the hidden injuries that the two of them had sustained during their previous training and missions.

The two were very grateful to Su Nuannuan.

After walking for about half an hour, Su Nuannuan and the others finally saw the village in the mountain stream.

Following the directions given by Baiyun, Su Nuannuan and her companions found Baitou Village.

As soon as the four entered the village, they attracted the attention of the elderly people.

Their clothing was very distinctive, with blue on the outside and black on the inside, and many small gourds of various colors hanging from their waists. Some of the women also wore silver ornaments on their heads.

This distinctive ethnic attire clearly identifies them as belonging to an ethnic minority group.

Seeing the villagers dressed similarly to Bai Yun, Su Nuannuan knew she hadn't come to the wrong place.

An uncle carrying a shovel came down from the mountainside and asked Su Nuannuan a question.

Whom are you looking for in our village?

Although he was questioning Su Nuannuan, his eyes remained fixed on the three men behind her. Furthermore, the older man gripped the shovel tightly in his hand.

Su Nuannuan estimated that as long as they had any bad intentions, the uncle's shovel would fall on them.

Besides the uncle, Su Nuannuan also noticed that several villagers behind him were watching them warily, their hands touching the small gourds at their waists, as if they were about to release something at any moment.

Su Nuannuan's eyelids twitched repeatedly when she saw this scene.

She remembered watching a short video in her past life where a Miao girl let a long worm crawl out of her mouth and then back in; it was terrifying.

Su Nuannuan didn't know if the Miao people had the legendary Gu poison, but they definitely had insects.

The thought of that multi-legged, wriggling, and poisonous little thing sent chills down Su Nuannuan's spine.

Chu Mingzhou and the other two also sensed the tense atmosphere and protected Su Nuannuan behind them.

The moment the three of them made a move, the villagers on the other side became even more nervous.

They took a step forward, and just as someone was about to open the small gourd at their waist, Su Nuannuan quickly spoke up.

"Hello, comrades. We are doctors from Lushan County People's Hospital. We've come to Baitou Village to find Bai Yun's parents, Bai Tietou and Gao Xiaolan."

Upon hearing the name of a familiar person, some villagers lowered their guard.

However, the leading man hadn't put down his shovel; he still asked warily, "What do you want with Tie Tou's house?"

This man is the village chief of Baitou Village, named Bai Dashan, and he is a cousin of Bai Tietou.

Although Su Nuannuan accurately stated the names of Bai Tietou's family, Bai Dashan would not let Su Nuannuan and her companions into the village until he understood why they had come.

Su Nuannuan was not angry when she saw this.

She said to Bai Dashan with a smile.

“Besides being doctors, we are also training instructors for barefoot doctors in Lushan County. We heard from our classmate Baiyun that her family has tea seedlings, and we want to exchange two of them for our own.”

After saying that, Su Nuannuan opened the things she was carrying and showed them to Bai Dashan.

The sack had a large opening, and Bai Dashan looked up and saw a can of milk powder and a large bag of mixed grain flour inside.

The moment Bai Dashan saw the grain, his eyes widened in astonishment.

With just a quick glance, Bai Dashan estimated that there were at least fifty pounds of mixed grain flour in the bag.

This amount of grain might not seem like much from the outside, but it's a big deal in Baitou Village.

Baitou Village is located deep in the mountains, and its annual grain yield is extremely low. The main foods they eat every day are mushrooms from the mountains and wild vegetables from the fields.

Food is only consumed freely during festivals and holidays.

It's easy to imagine how much impact Su Nuannuan's large quantity of mixed grains would have on Bai Dashan.

Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou had discussed it before they arrived.

Based on what I've learned about Baiyun's family, they must be very poor, and it's very likely that they're at the point where they can't afford to eat.

Therefore, the two decided to give some grain, half as a gift and half as an exchange, to Baiyun's family.

Considering that Baiyun has a newborn brother, Su Nuannuan took out a can of milk powder.

Seeing so many good things, the villagers who had overheard the entire conversation couldn't help but speak up.

“I also have tea seedlings at home, you can trade with me.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Dashan glared at the person behind him who had spoken and said...

"You talk too much! Didn't you hear? They came to find Tie Tou."

After saying that, Bai Dashan threw the shovel aside, put on a kind smile, and said to Su Nuannuan.

“Girl, I am Bai Dashan, the head of Baitou Village. You’re here to see Tie Tou, right? I know where they are. Just follow me.”

He was speaking to Su Nuannuan, but Bai Dashan's eyes were fixed on the bags in Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou's hands.

The stark contrast between these two faces made Su Nuannuan's lips twitch.

At the same time, she also deeply felt how poor Baitou Village was.

She nodded and said.

"Alright, Uncle Dashan, please lead the way."

Bai Dashan smiled with an incredibly kind and benevolent expression. He pushed through the crowd and led Su Nuannuan and the others toward the center of the village.

As he walked, he didn't forget to drive away the villagers who followed him.

Su Nuannuan walked in the middle, and her keen senses allowed her to clearly hear the hushed discussions of the villagers who were being driven away.

"You old lackey! Fine, don't follow me then."

"Why can't we go? My family also has tea seedlings."

"I should have had my kid run for class monitor a few years ago!"

"He's thinking about Tie Tou's family again. The brigade leader is really despicable."
