Exiled, there is space, the mistress of the gate will raise her cubs

So the children discovered two remarkable things.

The first is that there is an active spring with ice on the surface, and there are a few small fish fry and shrimps in the spring; the second is——

The body of Mrs. Qiu.

Several children were frightened and fainted, so they had no choice but the eldest, Shiwu, stayed in the town and asked the eldest girl to call the adults at home and bring a wooden bucket to catch fish and shrimp.

The other children can only eat seven or eight percent full at home. Don't underestimate the seven or eight percent full. This is because the Xiao family was in Jiuli Village before the decline, and the people in the village were poor.At that time, when the adults were busy with farming, they could eat [-]% or [-]% full, so they could save enough energy to work, and the children could only eat [-]% full. full of water.

Even so, it's useless to eat too much staple food all year round, and the children still look thin, so the big girls who don't follow the Xiao family to eat and drink spicy food look healthy, and no big girls can run fast.

The end of the village is close to the back mountain, and Da Niu first notified the Xiao family.

It was the morning, and Aunt Liu and the others went to Liu's restaurant, the pharmaceutical shop, and the big girl was so loud that she knew about it.She is going back to Xiao's yard now to find wooden barrels and nets for fishing.

Xiao Jinghuan scratched his head, "The bucket is a bit old. In the summer, Ling sister used it to dig earthworms and feed the chickens. When it got smelly, my mother decided to make it into a bucket for picking manure. No, my mother went to the town to fix it again. Some other new gadgets, otherwise, can it be done with a wooden basin?"

"The wooden basin...is not easy to hold. The fish fry and shrimp are relatively small, and they can't live well out of the water. It's a bit far from here, so I'm afraid I won't be able to carry it stably."

Xiao Jinghuan: "You stay with your father, and I will go to the back mountain."

"That's not going to work, that's not going to work, Uncle Xiao, you can't find the way, besides, the aunts of the pharmaceutical workshop are still waiting for me to lead the way at the gate of the courtyard."

"Then... let Ah Niu go to the pharmacy to stay? I locked the gate of the courtyard and went up to the back mountain with you?"

The big girl only hesitated for a moment, then readily agreed.

"Row."

Not many people went there. After all, there are quite a lot of people in the pharmacy now, and if they want to have a holiday and pay monthly money, then these people may really think that the Xiao family is a bodhisattva.

Enduring the pain and risking a few copper coins, the aunts followed the big girl to the back mountain.

It took about an hour and a half to walk.

The faces of the aunts, including Xiao Jinghuan, all changed.

From the beginning of the big girl's vows until the end when she was asked how long she had to go, she said with a guilty conscience: "This time it's really coming soon..."

"Mom! Why are you here!"

"mother……"

There was a little girl who threw herself into the arms of her mother crying.

Really freaked out.

Xiao Jinghuan handed the wooden basin to Fifteen and asked, "Where is Mrs. Qiu?"

"There." Fifteen pointed blankly.

Xiao Jinghuan knew that Shiwu's identity was not simple, but when the other party faced the dead, the expressions of the other children changed slightly in fright, and even Sister Ling and Xiao Zhonghao, who were usually not close, moved behind him...

He restrained his thoughts, spontaneously felt an inexplicable sense of mission, and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, I'll go find out."

"Yeah, fourth uncle, be careful." Sister Ling said with a pale face.

Xiao Jinghuan's heart warmed up, she raised her courage, and stepped closer.

Fifteen walked aside and added: "They were playing hide-and-seek and hid in this tree hole. They didn't pay attention for a while. After they were found, I noticed something was wrong. The children who shared the same tree hole as Mrs. Qiu at that time I fainted from fright..."

Shiwu paused, and then said: "At that time, Tiehua of the Cui family helped pinch the person, and then he was relieved. I couldn't walk away at that time. After all, I was the oldest, and those children were more dependent on me, so I had to Tell the big girl to go back and report the news. Now, there are still two children who have not recovered, so I have to go to the town to see the old lady or Dr. Xue."

Xiao Jinghuan glanced at the huge tree hole, there was enough room for an adult and a child to hide inside, and Mrs. Qiu sat in it with her eyes fixed on her eyes.

The light in the tree hole was very dark, and the children hid in a hurry at that time, so they couldn't see the situation inside clearly, so this incident happened.

After he got in with difficulty, his Adam's apple rolled down, and he wanted to pull the corpse, but fifteen people at the tree hole said: "Fourth master, before you came, I just tried it, and the corpse was frozen together with the inside of the tree hole." , I’m afraid it’s not easy to pull it out.”

Xiao Jinghuan immediately withdrew his hand and said, "Okay, I understand. A few elder sisters and I will take the children back first to suppress the shock. You stay here and watch. I have to go to the village to inform Xiaqiu's family. It's not because of us that Mrs. Qiu is here. He died, but the corpse was destroyed, and the truth of being blackmailed is unclear, and it is better for the Qiu family to handle it by themselves."

"Okay, it's up to you, Fourth Master."

After the group left, Yi Yitian, who was protecting Xiao Zhonghao and Xiao Jinghuan, came out and had an enthusiastic discussion with Shiwu.

"These kids can really run."

"Hide-and-seek can hide so far, and it's not afraid of the cold."

"They are so strange, aren't they just dead people, what are they afraid of?"

Fifteen was also puzzled, but when he thought of asking the other children who were still awake, he explained the confusion to his brothers and sisters: "It seems that the appearance of death is too scary?"

Hearing this, Twelve immediately tilted his head and rolled his eyes, and stuck out his tongue. When it was over, he said, "Is it so scary?"

The others made fun of Twelve: "What are you so scary about? Once I stabbed someone until their intestines came out..."

"What are you doing? I cut off a person's head, cut it down, and moved immediately."

fifteen:"……"

The children of Xiao's family compare with the old lady's praise, who is the most tragic before their death?

They are really his good brothers and sisters.

Originally, the day Mrs. Qiu disappeared, there was quite a commotion, but now several children in the village were scared out of their wits, and there were many people crying in the Xiao's compound, and people from the pharmacy took advantage of the meal break to watch the commotion .

Tang Zangyue didn't stay in the town for long, and returned to Jiuli Village after explaining the matter, just in time for the excitement.

The main house of the Xiao family had just been expanded, and now it can accommodate these terrified children. She first gave the two lost children an injection, and then asked Zhang Xiaomei who came from Bieyuan to scoop up some hot water and boil some brown sugar and ginger water.

The hot water is to wipe the children's body, and the brown sugar and ginger water is to dispel the cold.

Xiao Jinghuan had already had someone notify the Qiu family, so he and Qian Aniu stayed behind to fight, separated by a bamboo curtain, Xiao Jinghuan and Qian Aniu wiped the boys, Tang Zangyue and a few aunts who went up to the back mountain gave the girls Wipe yourself.

After a long time, the group of children settled down, put together the folding bed, spread a lot of thick cotton wool, lit a charcoal fire, opened the skylight to avoid gas poisoning, wiped the sweat from the forehead, and said: "Okay, let's Get out, the children are frightened, let them rest."

Finally, he looked at Xiao Jinghuan again: "Go and inform the families of these children one by one, and let them go back at night."

"Eh, good."

Seeing that Xiao Jinghuan was about to run away, Tang Zangyue said again: "Wait, you are not tired from running around? You sit in the carriage I drove back."

"Mother..." Xiao Jinghuan was a little moved.
