After Luo Zhiming made a phone call to Xu He's eldest uncle, he went with Xu He to send Duan Fenghua to the bus, and then told her which stop to get off at, where Xu He's uncle would be waiting.
Subsequently, Luo Zhiming took Xu He to the place where he was staying.
Luo Zhiming worked hauling bricks on a construction site, so naturally, he didn't live in a great place. He lived in an old courtyard with about twenty rooms partitioned by wooden planks, housing at least eighty to ninety people. Originally, Luo Zhiming shared a room with a fellow villager, but coincidentally, the roomie had recently gone back home because his wife was giving birth. Luo Zhiming had not yet found someone to share the rent, so taking Xu He there to live was actually quite convenient.
As soon as Xu He entered the courtyard, she saw that everyone around was dressed in tattered clothes, probably either laboring at the construction site or begging on the streets, presenting a scene of bleak desolation.
