"We're back!"

Lin Qiuxia and Lin Donghai rushed home before it got dark, thinking that they would not be criticized. When they returned to the door, they pushed open the courtyard door and shouted into the house.

As a result, the house was surprisingly quiet. The two people quickly entered the house and opened the doors of several rooms, but there was no one in the house.

Lin Qiuxia was startled. On her way home just now, she didn't see many people at the entrance of the village. Usually at this time, there were people eating at the door with bowls in their hands, or walking around after eating and chatting about the mountains.

Only then did I realize that it was a little quiet outside, but I saw some children playing outside, so I didn't pay attention, thinking that everyone else was at home.

When I came to my senses, I realized that the neighborhood was much quieter than usual. I felt that no one was home in the nearby houses.

Could it be that because she came back late, her family took people from the village out to look for her and her brother like last time?But today I always said I would go to Beipo Village when I went out. I used to take the road along the river. If someone looks for it, they will definitely encounter it. It is not dark now, so there is no problem of missing it on the road.

But at this time, everyone was not at home. Where did they go? Lin Qiuxia was puzzled. At this time, she heard the sound of the wooden fence door of the yard being pushed open. She pulled her brother Lin Donghai and ran out of the room. When she saw it, it was Her eldest sister Lin Chunni.

She was about to ask her eldest sister what was going on, where had everyone gone?Her eldest sister Chunni saw her and spoke before her:

"Third sister, just come back. There is food for you and fourth sister on the table in the main room. You two can clean up the dishes after eating. I just came back to take a look. I will go to Uncle Zishan's house to help later. ."

As she was about to turn around and go out, Lin Qiuxia quickly ran over and held Lin Chuni's hand, and then asked:

"Ah? Sister, why are you going to help Uncle Zishan's house? Are all the people nearby who are not at home there?"

She was really curious. If there was something going on in the brigade and it was necessary to gather people, it would be easy for everyone to go there. Why did they all suddenly go to Uncle Zishan's house?

When Lin Qiuxia was pulled, she stopped and waited for Lin Qiuxia to ask questions. She was in a hurry just now and forgot that her third sister was not at home in the afternoon. She didn't know what happened. Now when Lin Qiuxia finished speaking, Lin Chuni sighed longly and then said:

"Uncle Zishan is gone."

Lin Qiuxia didn't react for a moment: "Huh? You're gone. Where did you go?"

Seeing Lin Chuni let out a long sigh again, she realized, "This, this is too sudden. I saw him when I was out of school yesterday. This..."

"Oh, who says it's not? I'll go over first. You two should eat quickly. After you finish eating, wash your own dishes and then stay at home or play at the door. Leave some food for your second brother. We'll spend the afternoon at home. I asked someone to bring the letter, and he should be able to come back today."

Seeing this, Lin Qiuxia didn't want to delay Lin Chuni. After watching her eldest sister leave, she went back to the house and called Lin Donghai to have dinner with her.

Just as Lin Chuni went out for a while, Lin Xiaze followed her back home.Lin Qiuxia quickly asked Lin Xiaze to wash his hands and eat.

"Second brother, hurry up and wash your hands and eat. My parents, eldest sister, and uncle should be over there."

Lin Xiaze went back to the house to put away his things first, then went to the yard to wash his hands and came back to eat in a hurry. During the meal, he asked Lin Qiuxia: "Third sister, what's going on? I came back last weekend and was fine. Why is it so sudden?"

"Oh, second brother, I don't know either. I said hello to Uncle Zishan when school was over yesterday afternoon. Everyone was fine. Something must have happened, otherwise it wouldn't have happened. It probably happened in the afternoon. , I went to my classmate’s house in the afternoon, and I just came back a while ago, so I don’t know what happened.”

Seeing that his sister didn't know the specific situation, Lin Xiaze didn't ask too much. He took the time to finish the sweet potato porridge in the bowl, without even bothering to pick up the vegetables a few times. After eating, he picked up the bowl and hurriedly went to the yard to rinse it and prepare it. go out.

Before going out, he also warned: "Second brother is going over first. Mom and eldest sister will probably be back later. You will be at home later. When it gets dark, light the oil lamp. Don't be afraid."

"Oh, I understand. I will take good care of my brother. He is at home, so you don't have to worry."

After Lin Xiaze finished speaking, he hurried out and went out. Lin Qiuxia was not in the mood at the moment and ate her meal quickly.Lin Donghai listened for a while and knew that something had happened to Uncle Zishan, so he ate quietly and sensibly did not play tricks on dinner tonight.

Lin Qiuxia feels that although her brother is only a 5-year-old child, he is very sensible. He is usually the happy fruit of the family. He is always reliable at critical moments and has good eyesight. He is many times better than other children. The more he looks at it, the more he gets better. Rejoiced.

After a crazy day of playing today, the clothes of both of them were dirty, and they were sweating all over the day. Lin Qiuxia carried a bucket into the kitchen, and sure enough, there was a pot on the stove behind the stove. With the water still warm from the firewood, she quickly fetched a bucket of water, mixed it with cold water to a suitable temperature, and gave her brother a bath.

After that, he fetched some water and took a shower himself. Then he took Lin Donghai back to the house and lit an oil lamp for Lin Donghai to sleep.

After a day of playing today and walking a lot, the children of several years old couldn't hold on anymore and fell asleep after a while.

And Lin Qiuxia was lying on the bed, thinking about Uncle Zishan, quietly in a daze, thinking...

There were only a few people in the village who had not inherited the kindness of Uncle Zishan or his family members, and there were also many of them, so the family notified Lin Xiaze to come back.

Nowadays, the four olds are being destroyed, but they all say that the dead are the most important. Someone in the village has left, and there are few people in the village who are not grateful to him, like Uncle Zishan.Therefore, many processes will be completed secretly for him to make it easier for him.

Every household in the brigade brought out some rice and flour, which they cooked together for half the night. They also produced a triangular-pointed tart cake, which was also served.The women in the brigade are responsible for these.

The strong men of the brigade were on guard, and a group of people were kept at a distance to prevent people from other villages from coming or reporting, and to keep a watch on them before they were carried up the mountain in the middle of the night.

Try your best to do everything you can, and people close to you will help. After all, there are a lot of things, and they have to be done secretly.

Lin Qiuxia estimated that all the adults in the brigade had gone to various places, like her second brother Lin Xiaze, and her family had tried to notify him to come back.
