Chapter 151
In the room, Zhu Wuliu and Sun Peifang sat on one side, and the other two sat on the other side.
"Here, there is no tea at home, let's drink some hot water to warm up."
The man took the two porcelain bowls from Sun Peifang's hand and smiled mischievously.
It turned out that the man was the woman's husband, and the woman was the youngest daughter of Mrs. Zhao. Among the three sisters, she was the only one who married not far away, in Qingmen County.
Sun Peifang was full of doubts and wanted to ask, but she didn't want to open her mouth for fear of being misunderstood. For example, in this county, you should have known that the refugees from the north were taken over, why did you come here now.
Hey, she didn't want to be held accountable, but she just wanted to know when she found out that the old lady was gone, and why she found them both.
Mrs. Zhao's daughter, Sun Lian, was crying so hard that the handkerchief in her hand was so wet that water could come out after wringing it out.
He whimpered softly: "I knew it at the time, but the government ordered that there was a plague in those days and they were not allowed to go out. Only the men in the family who went out to work had the opportunity to go out, and the women had to stay at home."
Meng Shaoqing held his wife's hand tightly, and continued to speak for her: "After hearing the news, my wife was in a hurry, and sent several letters to the family, but nothing was heard.
We originally wanted to go out of the city to pick up people, but at that time the government had ordered the city to be closed, and only military generals like them who greeted and sent us could enter and leave the city gate at will.
Later, I learned that many people came from the north and wanted to ask, but I never found a chance.
It was easy to catch up with the confession in the city, and our family was not short of those wages to live on, but I thought that if I could know whether the old lady came in and where she was now, my wife would be at ease.
In this way, I signed up to join the teams building walls at the gates of the two cities.
It was only after inquiring about the number of people in Songshu Village’s books that the official and the official found out that the old lady was not here... Maybe it was..."
Maybe it's more bad luck than good luck.
Needless to say, the woman next door had already started sobbing again.
Zhu Wuliu rubbed his palms, he didn't know whether he should tell Sun Lian the truth.
What do you say?
Your mother didn't die of illness, she didn't join their team in Songshu Village at all.
She was bitten to death by wolves. The bones of the old lady were brittle, and the bitten arms and legs were all separated.
What was left to them was a tragic scene, and they didn't see how helpless Mrs. Zhao was at that time.
Thinking about the past, Zhu Wuliu also felt uncomfortable.
The last time I saw the old lady, the old lady gave him back the money, which can be regarded as an indirect relief of their family's situation at that time.
Sun Peifang wanted to drag Zhu Wuliu to let him say a few words to ease the embarrassment, but when she turned her head, Zhu Wuliu's eyes were red.
"Today we came here to thank benefactor."
Meng Shaoqing helped his wife to stand up, and Sun Peifang repeatedly emphasized not to kneel down at every turn, and shorten the life of the old couple.
So, the obedient two turned to salute them.
"Because of my mother's death, my wife was ill for a while, and then we found Lizhang Sun of Songshu Village in the city, and asked him about the situation...
...No matter what, my mother-in-law was buried by Brother Zhu, and we all recognize Brother Zhu as a benefactor. "
"Is there a benefactor or not? I didn't bury the person myself. I don't have the guts. Several men in the village did it together.
They are all from the same village. The old lady also took care of many places in our house before, which is what should be done.
Whether it's your mother or other people in the village, we will do the same, so if we let the corpses of a village be exposed in the wilderness, are we still human? "
Did he talk too much?No matter how you look at it, Sun Lian's eyes are red and swollen again.
"That...Brother Zhu, this is a wish from our husband and wife. If you don't mind this young man, please accept it."
Meng Shaoqing took out a heavy purse from his arms.
This is thanks.
They knew that no amount of money could buy the old lady's life, and no amount of money could repay Zhu Wuliu's kindness to their old lady.
I heard Li Chang Sun said that no one dared to go there at that time. One was that they didn’t know when the wolves would come down the mountain, and the other was that the plague had passed at that time, and they were afraid that they would be infected by refugees from other villages.
Three, the old lady is the scariest, he can imagine the bloody scene without asking carefully, anyone can go out and see it without being afraid.
It was Zhu Wuliu who took the risk and brought a few brave ones to collect the old lady's body. This kindness should not be measured by money at all.
But I don't need money, and I don't know other ways to repay it.
"Go back."
Sure enough?Meng Shaoqing's hand suddenly paused, and it was raised in the air in embarrassment.
Zhu Wuliu said: "We have already said that we buried your mother-in-law because we belong to the same village, and it is our duty to bury people in a village.
Many people were buried on our way, and it was just a matter of little effort for us.
If you really appreciate us psychologically, then do your best to be filial in the future.
The old lady has three daughters in her family, how much pressure this woman can withstand in the village with all the daughters in the house.
The old lady can be considered a person if she can survive to that age. It is my blessing to bury the old lady.
If you want to give me money, then you will receive blessings from me.
Put your money away.
When the north settles down, go back and have a look. The old lady's grave is in her yard, not far away. "
Buried far away, I am afraid that it will be inconvenient for them to come back to get the paper money, and they will not be able to find where their home is.
Zhu Wuliu's words pierced Sun Lian's heart like a needle.
The three sisters lived closest to her, and Ke was so stunned that he didn't take the old lady over for many years.
There is the reason of the old lady. When people are old, they pay attention to returning the fallen leaves to their roots. The old lady has a strong body, but she has reached her age. When she is gone, she still hopes to stay in her own home.
Moreover, there are ancestral graves at home that need to be cleaned up, so someone needs to take care of this end.
Sun Lian didn't say anything at the time, but she knew in her heart that the biggest knot in the old lady's heart was that she was afraid of causing trouble to her daughter.
Living with your daughter and son-in-law under the same roof, eating and drinking for free?Make people pay attention behind their backs?
When you are young, it is enough to pay attention to her, but when you are old, you have to pay attention to the old lady because you let your daughter go down, and you will be ashamed to see the ancestors of the Sun family.
With a sore nose, Sun Lian lowered her head.
It hurts to see Meng Shaoqing.
It's all his fault. If he had been tougher as a son-in-law back then, he would have given the old lady and his wife a sense of security.
The old lady appointed to come.
"Brother Zhu said that it's Meng, the villain's heart...but...if we can't repay Brother Zhu, we, husband and wife, may feel uneasy.
... In the future, if Brother Zhu's family needs to go to Meng's place, just tell him, and Meng will definitely die. "
As soon as Sun Peifang gritted her teeth, the emotion in her heart disappeared.
This group of people who can use some words is annoying, Zhou Huan is, Zhu Wuliu is, Xiaoman is also, and now there is another one, who always speaks with dead words.
To repay favors is to die?
Why can't we all live together?
"Fang, go and give them the money and items I took out from Mrs. Zhao's house."
Did you hear, I, Zhu Wuliu, am not a saint, and I also have selfish intentions. I buried the old lady and took away a lot of usable things from the house, so there is no need to thank him.
He can't stand it.
