PS: Make up 780 monthly tickets for the previous month and add more changes.
After leaving the orphanage, there was an extra woman wearing a scarf in the team of Cai Ruichen and others.
However, Cai Ruichen did not leave Baghdad directly, and he was not in a hurry to go back.
"Mr. Hua, I didn't expect you to still be teaching in the orphanage." As the first Chinese I met in Iraq, Cai Ruichen still had a fresh memory of this Chinese teacher who taught Tang poetry and Song Ci to orphans.
"I never planned to leave. Those children like to learn Chinese civilization very much, and I like them too." Hua Meixue said without loosening the scarf on her face.
"I saw that the children in the cafeteria used chopsticks to eat. This should be due to you!" Cai Ruichen said.
"Credit?" Hua Meixue stopped, looked at Cai Ruichen and said, "These two words are not correct, because it is not a credit, if Dr. Cai is not well-known in Iraq, and he is on time every week. For a fee, children will not take the initiative to learn those things."
"That can be regarded as your teaching well." Cai Ruichen also stopped and said.
"Dr. Cai is overrated. No matter how good I am, there are only a few people who can help me. Compared with Dr. Cai's achievements, the little girl is nothing at all." Hua Meixue said.
Hearing Hua Meixue's words, Cai Ruichen shook his head and said, "Don't you think our conversation is a bit strange?"
Having said that, Cai Ruichen paused for a moment without giving Hua Meixue a chance to speak, and said, "Although I can only see your eyes, from your voice and your gaze, it can be seen that you are not very old , I am not an old pedant, let alone some high-ranking person, you can completely treat me as a friend. After all, I am far away from home, and there should be no distinction between high and low. Otherwise, it will seem too strange."
"Dr. Cai, please forgive me. Because I also admire you. I can't speak when I see idols." Hua Meixue blinked her big eyes in the scarf and said.
"Then don't say Dr. Cai, you can call me Ruichen, or you can call me Cai Ruichen." Cai Ruichen felt a little embarrassed when he heard that the other party worshiped him.
"Cai Ruichen. Ruichen, then I'd better call you Brother Cai." Hua Meixue muttered a few words. Then he opened his mouth and said.
"Brother Cai, although it sounds strange, it's up to you." Cai Ruichen said. Continue along the tree-lined path and walk forward.
Seeing Cai Ruichen walked forward again.
Hua Meixue also followed and said, "Brother Cai, your deeds are everywhere now. Can you tell me how you feel?"
"Is it a feeling? Is tiredness a feeling?" Cai Ruichen asked rhetorically.
"It's understandable to be tired, compared to all the people of the same age in this world. You must be more tired than everyone else, otherwise there would be no achievement today." Hua Meixue nodded seriously after hearing this. continued:
"After all, in this world, there is no gain for nothing. I believe that everyone who has learned about your deeds should first think of your sweat and hard work."
When Cai Ruichen heard the words, he didn't explain, but changed the subject and asked, "Mr. Hua, can you tell me how you, a girl, came to Iraq?"
Hearing Cai Ruichen's question, Hua Meixue was silent for a long time, and then said: "My mother is from Iraq. I have never seen my mother since I was a child. I have always lived with my father in my hometown. A year ago, I followed My father came to Iraq looking for my mother, but..."
Having said that, Hua Meixue didn't continue talking, she lowered her head and looked at her feet, a few tears fell from the corners of her eyes along the scarf and onto the ground.
Although there was no beginning and end, but seeing Hua Meixue like this, Cai Ruichen didn't continue to ask questions, but apologized: "I'm very sorry, it brought up your sad past."
"Actually not. After all, the matter has passed, and people have to look forward." Hua Meixue slowly raised her head, and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her slender fingers.
Seeing this, Natasha at the side immediately took out a pack of tissues from her satchel and handed it to Hua Meixue.
The latter nodded gratefully to Natasha, took the facial tissue, and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and hands.
"It's the most difficult thing for you to come out. After all, there are too many people who are still living in the past and cannot extricate themselves, so their past continues to affect the future." Cai Ruichen said.
"Brother Cai was joking. I believe everyone will cheer up if they live here for a few months. The environment can change a person more quickly." Hua Meixue said.
"Then can you tell me, how did you survive here, do you have any friends?" Cai Ruichen asked.
"Because I can speak Arabic, I put on a scarf, and no one knew I was a foreigner, so I didn't encounter any trouble." Hua Meixue said.
Cai Ruichen couldn't see the other person's face, but he could still hear it from her tone.
A single woman, in a place like Baghdad, is actually not easy at all.
Not to mention those bombings that happen every day, the psychological shadow and pressure caused to a girl who has lived in a peaceful environment for a long time.
Just coming to an unfamiliar environment suddenly is enough to make people feel a huge sense of environmental oppression.
Therefore, it is impossible for Cai Ruichen to really think that her life here is really smooth.
It's just that from the girl's eyes, he saw a very resolute gaze, so he got a little bit of understanding.
"Then you haven't thought about going back?" Cai Ruichen asked.
Hua Meixue shook her head and said, "I still have to find my mother."
"If necessary, I can help you. After all, you are here alone, and you should be unfamiliar with the place, which is very inconvenient." Cai Ruichen said.
"Actually, after my father's accident, I didn't know how to find my mother, and I didn't have her photo. I only know her name." Hua Meixue said.
"If you have a name and a surname, it should be easy to find!" Cai Ruichen immediately thought of the long list of Arabic names, including the names of identity, father, grandfather, and ancestral place names.
Hua Meixue understood what Cai Ruichen meant, but she shook her head and said, "The name is not complete, there are too many similarities."
"I believe that one day you will find it." Cai Ruichen was speechless when he heard that. He didn't know how Hua Meixue's father knew her mother. He didn't even have a photo or name.
In the end, he also left. Doesn't this mean that there is no news at all?
And what he could think of, Hua Meixue could also think of, so Cai Ruichen didn't say much, he could only comfort her. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
