Chapter 62
Su Xiaomu was frightened by Li Shi's sudden fainting.

She stood far away, and before she had time to step forward to help her, she caught a glimpse of Old Man Gu sitting next to her from the corner of her eye.

His face was also blue now, his lips were trembling, and the bong in his hand rolled down to his feet, looking at those who came to report the news as if they were facing an enemy.

The two brothers of the Gu family are also very dizzy now. They can't believe what they heard just now. The third child of their family is such a smart person. It is raining so hard. He will not risk going home, so how could he be buried? What about going to the mountains?
"I said Uncle Zhao..."

Chen is considered the calmest in the Gu family, but her voice is trembling now.

"You don't dare to make fun of us..."

"How dare I make fun of this kind of thing? A total of five returned students were buried in the mountain. Except for our Jingcheng, the rest are from other villages. They also passed the news back to us."

"Now everyone says that every household sends out someone to dig them out. These scholars are more valuable than us peasants, and no matter what else, the village has to see people and corpses!"

The uncle of the Zhao family wiped the rainwater off his face, and stamped his feet urgently.

"Stop sticking around, Jingcheng is a child of your family, and now we can't waste a single second!"

"Uncle, you are right. My elder brother and second elder brother are going with you now. Time is tight, so there is no delay at all."

After Su Xiaomu said this, she turned around and took off all the coir raincoats hanging on the outside wall of the house, and after distributing them to Gu Feng and Gu Hai, she also put one on herself.

"Two sisters-in-law, parents will trouble you to take care of them. My elder brother and my second elder brother and I will go to save the husband."

She spoke to Chen and Yin solemnly, it was raining heavily, and the light from the moon hanging in the sky was extremely dim, and the family was saving money, but at this time they only lit a kerosene lamp outside the house.

The light was so unclear, but Chen felt that Su Xiaomu's whole body was glowing at this moment.

Especially her eyes, big, round and bright.

"Okay... Then you guys, you must pay attention to safety."

Yin didn't have as many ideas as Chen did. She just nodded blankly and pinned all her hopes on Su Xiaomu alone.

Their family couldn't live without Third Uncle. They invested so much money in Third Uncle in the hope that the Gu family would be able to ascend to heaven with him in the future.

If... If the third uncle is gone, then they will have to live in this small mountain village forever.

"Okay, you girl is a courageous person, then let's set off quickly, there will be no delay in time."

The uncle of the Zhao family didn't know Su Xiaomu, but everyone was from the same village. Didn't he know that a few days ago, the old couple of the Gu family spent money to buy a daughter-in-law outside in order to make their third child happy?

At first he thought their little daughter-in-law was a delicate little girl, so he didn't take her seriously at all.

Unexpectedly, she is a person who can carry the burden on her body, did not see the two brothers Gu Feng and Gu Hai, did she not resist?
Shaking his head with emotion, the pace of his feet was not slow at all.

"We have to go to the village chief first. There are only seven or eight people including us here. With such a number, it is definitely not enough to dig the mountain."

Her usual gentle and quiet face was now full of composure.

"Big brother and second brother, you have to talk to the village chief later, and you must ask him to call more people, preferably men who can work in the village, and call them all."

There is only one out of the family, and the quantity is still not enough.

The most important thing is that she hasn't arrived at the scene yet, and she doesn't know the specific situation of the landslide.

But based on her previous experience of watching the news, they must not be enough now.

"Okay, then I'll go and tell Uncle Zhao, let's go to the village chief first."

Gu Hai also regained his composure at that time, he completely agreed with what the third daughter-in-law said.

It was really raining heavily, even though Su Xiaomu was wearing a coir raincoat and hat, the rain still kept flowing along the gaps to her face and body.

The rain on the ground has also accumulated very deep, and every foot she steps on will cause countless large splashes.

Every time she raised her eyes, she watched the heavy rain mercilessly sweeping across the land.

It goes east for a while, goes west for a while, and for a while it seems to form a whirlpool not far away, which makes people feel terrifying and spectacular.

The village chief's house was still some distance away from them. On the way, she was drenched by the rain soberly.

In fact, whether Gu Jingcheng is dead or alive is not important to her at all.

There is no relationship between the two of them, and it is even said that some unpleasant things have always happened between them recently.

Su Xiaomu thinks that she is not the Holy Mother, and she doesn't have the ability to save others, so she really doesn't feel sorry for Gu Jingcheng when he falls into such a desperate situation.

But very helpless, who made him Li Shi's favorite?

Leaving aside the blind marriage between them, Li Shi treated her very well.

Although she herself is not a person who lacks love, in such an era, she is already very satisfied that someone like Li Shi treats her well.

Although these good things are not very pure, she can feel Li Shi's sincerity more or less.

She didn't want to make Mrs. Li sad, and she didn't want the two sister-in-laws to lose hope.

For the men in the family, it is a good thing for the family to have someone who can become a high-ranking official, and it will make them face when they go out.

But the Chen family is different from the Yin family. For them, from the day they married in, they were forced to spend all their resources on Gu Jingcheng alone.

Therefore, they have been looking forward to Gu Jingcheng being able to take them to enjoy happiness together after he becomes famous.

To be honest, Su Xiaomu didn't really like the phenomenon of using all the strength of the family to support one person.

But in ancient times, in ancient rural areas, there was absolutely no way to do this.

Most of the people could not read and write, and it was already the luck of the whole village to be able to produce a golden pastry of a scholar.

After walking for about two quarters of an hour in the heavy rain, they arrived at the village chief's house.

In fact, the village chief knew earlier that some students were buried in the mountains.

But he didn't know that Gu Jingcheng was also buried at that time, so he didn't take the need for help from the neighboring village to heart.

But it's different now. When he heard that Gu Jingcheng had an accident there, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and hurriedly called his son to call the villagers to help at the landslide.

The village chief's face was full of anxiety at the moment, he took Gu Feng's hand and said bluntly.

"Xiaofeng, why didn't you come to your uncle and me earlier, it's raining so hard now, if we can't find Jingcheng later, it's not..."

"We will definitely find the village head of Jingcheng."

Su Xiaomu looked at the village chief with extremely firm eyes: "I believe that he is not in any danger at all now, and is waiting for us to rescue him in a safe place."
