The Tight Embrace of the End Times

Xiao Qiao was unwilling to leave Gu Leng's side for a moment, so Gu Leng went to fetch water, and he strongly demanded to follow.Gu Leng couldn't help him, so he had to agree, and Gu Leng also liked the feeling of the two of them together.

When the two arrived at the meeting point, almost everyone was there. Among the group of middle-aged men, there were a few women who were a little smaller in stature, who were particularly eye-catching.Gu Leng glanced casually, and saw Mrs. Qian was also inside, standing at the back of the line with her head down.

The village head held a torch and walked in the front to open the way for everyone.

The mountain at night does not look eerie. There are a large number of dead trees and large areas of bare land. People don't need to bother to recognize the way, and they can see the top of the mountain without hindrance at a glance.

The Great Lake is surrounded by mountains and can't be seen at a glance. It is a childhood paradise for children in the village. In the past, some businessmen wanted to turn this charming place into a scenic spot and build a resort. It is a place where you can play, so it is still natural.

Under the moonlight, the lake is quiet, with no waves or waves, and only a round of bright moon in the distance is quietly reflected in it. Suffering seems to make people lose the motivation to speak. Suddenly, there seems to be only the sound of people's heavy breathing and the sound of mosquitoes in the world. and the Great Lakes.

When they arrived at the lake, people found that the water level of the lake had dropped a lot, and there was at least 5 or 6 meters of silt from the place where people stood to the lake. So the villagers tried the depth of the silt one after another, and found that they just had no feet.

After discussion, the village chief organized the villagers to fetch water through a relay. A group of people cooperated tacitly and successfully got enough water.

On the way back, the water fetching team of Gujia Village met someone from another village who came to fetch water. Gu Leng only saw the two village chiefs chatting for a while, and then went about their own business.

That's right, life is so hard, how can I have the mood to talk about conspiracy.

When going down the mountain, Mrs. Qian accidentally fell down and spilled all the bucket of water she had taken. Mrs. Qian sat on the ground and cried loudly. , Shouting "I can't live anymore, I can't live anymore".

The village head can't just leave like this, he is distressed and embarrassed, and the other villagers complained aloud. The village head can't do it. The elder promised to give Qian Sao half of his hand, so Qian Sao stood up and followed the team back to the village.

There are four members of Gu Yong's family, except for his old parents, he and his 6-year-old daughter. He is the only man in their family, so Gu Yong is also in the water fetching team. This bookish man asked to stop for 4 hours along the way. This time, many villagers looked at him strangely.

Xiao Qiao is really a diligent person, as soon as he came back at night, he pulled Gu Lengfei to give him a massage.

Gu Leng had no choice but to enjoy the sweetness, his shoulders and back were sore, after being hit by Xiao Qiao, pinched and pressed, it was very comfortable, and Gu Leng was drowsy.But Xiao Qiao pressed hard on his back and woke him up.

Gu Leng sat up, glaring at Xiao Qiao, Xiao Qiao blinked innocently, quickly lay down next to Gu Leng, and motioned Gu Leng to press him too with his eyes.

Gu Leng gritted his teeth, he has always been a sensible person: "Xiao Qiao, let me step on your back."

Xiao Qiao screamed and screamed when she stepped on it.

Xiao Qiao and Gu Leng followed the large army to fetch water once, which was enough for several days, so they didn't go with them every day.

Gu Leng and Xiao Qiao would occasionally visit Aunt He's house to replace the water in Aunt He's water tank with spring water. Sure enough, seeing Gu Hai welcoming him, he became stronger and seemed to grow a little taller. Gu Leng is very happy, and the effect on Aunt He is more obvious. Although she is dark and thin, she looks very young, and the wrinkles on her face are much less. This family is kind-hearted and optimistic. Gu Leng I like to get along with their family and come here often.

"Mom, dinner is ready." The voice of Gu Hai's sister Gu Yun came from the kitchen.

Gu Leng tactfully pulled Xiao Qiao to stand up, it's not fashionable to be a guest this year's festival.

Aunt He hurriedly pulled Gu Leng back: "Xiao Leng, Xiao Qiao, stay for dinner, your aunt can still pay for a meal, as long as you don't mind the bad food."

Gu Hai also grabbed Gu Leng's arm to prevent him from leaving. A life without any entertainment was about to suffocate Gu Hai. Gu Leng looked at his pleading eyes and had no choice but to agree.

When the food was served, Gu Leng saw that there was a pot of sauerkraut and a pot of fried shredded potatoes on the table, and the food was steamed buns. Aunt He said apologetically, "Xiao Leng, Xiao Qiao, let's not talk about other aunts. We don't want to be those people who slap their faces to make them fat, although the food is shabby, you two should take care of it and eat enough."

"Aunt He, how can I, I like potato shreds the most, um, this steamed bun is also very strong, you should eat it soon." Gu Leng really likes to eat potato shreds, so what he said is sincere Sincerely, Xiao Qiao also expressed his gratitude for the meal, and everyone happily finished the meal together.

At night, Gu Leng and Xiao Qiao were lying on the bed, Gu Leng asked Xiao Qiao softly: "Everyone else is like this."

Xiao Qiao embraced Gu Leng: "It's good to be full, don't think so much."

"We eat so well, I feel guilty."

"We are mortals and cannot save the world."

"But you can help people you know, can't you?"

"Can you help them for a while, can you help them for a lifetime? We can help at critical moments, and they still have to walk the rest of the way."

"I thought of a poem"

"what?"

"There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, where the underprivileged are all happy. I kind of understand the feeling of sighing."

The next day, Gu Leng pulled Gu Hai over and stuffed him with a few strings of sausages, a sealed sweet-scented osmanthus duck, and a bag of corn. Gu Hai's eyes lit up with joy, his saliva flooded, and he repeatedly called brother.After being happy, he pushed the food to Gu Leng with embarrassment and reluctance: "Brother, I can't take this. If I want it, my mother must break my legs."

Gu Leng said with a funny smile: "Okay, you're calling me brother, and you're pushing me to give you something, or you want me to deliver it to your house."

"Brother, I can't accept it either. There is enough food, and I heard from my mother that the days from now on won't be all that good. If you can save something now, save it."

"Let's put it down, I have enough food, you just take it if I give it to you." He said and stuffed the things into Gu Hai's arms, and left with a smile.

When Gu Leng and Xiao Qiao followed the large army to fetch water again, when Gu Leng saw Mrs. Qian, he didn't recognize her at first glance.

Mrs. Qian has changed so much, her clothes are dirty, she can't see the color, her hair is messy and oily, and her waist is bent down. She looks no different from a woman in her 50s, but Mrs. Qian, Gu Leng remembered correctly If so, he is obviously only in his 30s.

Looking at her hunched figure, such an arrogant woman who loved to dress up and joke, disappeared.
