Zhao Wanqing waved her hand coolly, "Don't worry, I've packed your cotton."

Wen Xin wanted to say something more, but was interrupted.

"Xinxin, when the time comes, I will prepare it for my parents, Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo. I am not good at needlework, so I have to rely on you."

Wen Xin choked, "Okay."

Seeing that she agreed, Zhao Wanqing laughed and said, "This is my good friend."

Huo Xunye waited until eight o'clock in the evening, when everyone in the educated youth area was asleep, before quietly going out.

Following the route given by Lin Dongze, we arrived all the way outside the bullpen.

Seeing this dilapidated house from the outside, Huo Xunye felt sad. He looked around cautiously, went over and knocked on the door three times, and imitated the bird call twice.

The people in the house were just about to go to sleep when they heard a noise and became a little scared.

Hearing the birds chirping again, Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo seemed a little excited and immediately planned to go down and open the door.

"This is the code, it's my grandson who's coming."

He was stopped by Zhao's father. It was so dark outside and he was afraid that if the old man fell, he would be in trouble.

He put on his clothes, opened the door a small crack, and let people in.

"Uncle Zhao, you have suffered." Huo Xunye's tone was low.

Father Zhao sighed and patted his shoulder, "Go in first."

When Huo Xunye entered the house, he first saw the skinny Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo. They were not as refined as before. Their clothes were extremely shabby, their hands were all scratched, and there was no flesh on their faces. The bed underneath them creaked. Noise, the quilt is cold and hard, it's really hard to keep warm.

He knelt down with a bang, "Grandpa and grandma, it was me who came too late and made you suffer so much. It is my grandson who is unfilial."

Seeing the person in front of her, Grandma Huo couldn't control herself and burst into tears. He quickly helped the person up, touched his face with trembling fingers, and said with a choked voice, "It's okay, it has nothing to do with you. Grandpa and grandma are fine now, don't blame yourself, ah."

Grandpa Huo also said, "Yes, this is our disaster, don't worry too much. This place is pretty good."

Huo Xunye was angry inside, worried about the health of his two elders, and worried that he couldn't change anything.

Father Zhao and Mother Zhao were watching with sadness.

Huo Xunye turned around and bowed to the two of them and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao, for taking care of the family."

Mother Zhao wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "It's not about taking care of us. We are all the same, we just take care of each other."

Father Zhao also said, "Yes. Come sit down and talk."

After sitting down, Grandma Huo asked, "Xiaoye, how could you come here?"

Huo Xunye said, "There was someone from this village in the team before. He came down to perform a mission, and I asked him to take care of you. Now that the mission is coming to an end, I applied to wrap it up, so I can still see you."

Grandpa Huo said in a serious tone, "Since we have a mission, we can't be careless. Don't worry about us all the time and delay the business."

Huo Xunye smiled and said, "Don't worry, grandpa, I know it."

Grandma Huo patted Grandpa Huo and scolded, "My grandson finally came here, so you can't talk properly."

Grandpa Huo frowned and said, "What's wrong with me? I care about him."

Huo Xunye quickly changed the subject, "By the way, grandparents, these are the things I brought here. My parents brought these for you. I bought these from Lin Dongze. Take a look and see if you need anything else. I'll get it. .”

He brought clothes, food, supplements, pastries, etc., and also bought cooked chestnuts from Lin Dongze.

Seeing this, Grandma Huo felt a little distressed, "Don't give it all to us, you have to keep some for yourself."

Huo Xunye said warmly, "I have it, don't worry about grandma."

Then he scanned the house again, but because of the darkness, what he could see was limited.

"I will go to the town later to get more cotton to make quilts and cotton-padded clothes for you. It gets cold here early. Is this house leaky? It needs to be repaired. Do you have enough firewood? I will get firewood every afternoon from now on. , I’ll deliver it to you in the evening.”

The more I think about it, the more I feel that everything is missing and there is still a bit of urgency.

He knew the weather here, it was cold early and still lasted a long time. In winter, we rely on the kang, and firewood is absolutely indispensable.

Seeing Huo Xunye keep talking about what he was missing, Grandma Huo said softly, "Don't worry, Uncle Zhao's daughter helped us get the cotton. Your comrade Lin Dongze also said he would help us repair the house. We have a lot of food here. It was sent here by a female educated youth who was with your Uncle Zhao's daughter."

Mother Zhao also consoled us, "Yes, they come here every few days to bring food. They are afraid that we will wrong ourselves. Don't worry too much."

"Really, that's good." Huo Xunye breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

"What are the names of those two educated youths? I can go and thank them for their help later."

"Your Uncle Zhao's daughter is called Zhao Wanqing, and the other is called Wen Xin. They are both good children, honest, kind, and willing to help others." Grandma Huo held Huo Xunye's hand and said.

Huo Xunye nodded.

Grandpa Huo asked, "How long can you stay here?"

Huo Xunye said, "Maybe we won't leave until next year when it gets warmer."

Grandma Huo was a little happy, "So, can we celebrate the New Year together this year?"

Huo Xunye said warmly, "Yes. There's enough time."

He thought for a while and then gave some instructions, "Grandpa, grandma, Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao, if someone you don't know comes to you and says that he wants to help you because of your hard work, don't believe it and don't talk to him. Just drive away."

Grandpa Huo looked serious and asked, "Are you coming for us?"

Huo Xunye said nothing and nodded almost inaudibly.

Several people looked bad. They had been in this kind of place for several years. Unexpectedly, they still couldn't get some people to give up their ideas and still try to influence them.

Grandpa Huo was the first to express his opinion, "Don't worry about this. We have been here safely for so long, so we still have to be wary."

Uncle Zhao said, "Xun Ye, please tell my daughter and Wen Xin that they should come here less often. I'm afraid someone will miss them."

Huo Xunye nodded in agreement.

"Okay, it's getting late, go back quickly." Grandma Huo started to drive people away.

Huo Xunye originally wanted to sit for a while, but considering that they were very tired during the day, it was better to rest early.

"Okay, I'll leave first and come back to see you later. Take care of yourselves and tell me if you need anything." Before leaving, Huo Xunye couldn't help but nag and nag and exhort.

"I know, don't worry." Grandma Huo pushed the man out and watched him leave, "Xiaoye, take care of yourself."

After watching people leave, Grandma Huo went in and saw Grandpa Huo in the room looking out through the gap.

"You didn't say anything when I asked you to speak just now, and now you're hiding here to watch after people leave."
