The rain outside was already raining heavily, and from time to time there was a thunderclap that made people's hearts tremble.

Yan sat on the bed in a daze, she was also thinking about her decision, she just felt sorry for Yao Shi, a girl's family stayed in Beijing, but no one took care of her, even if something happened, the family would not know, if it wasn't for Wei Za to tell them this time, she didn't know that Yao Shi actually walked in the ghost gate.

Thinking of this, Yan Shi was shocked into a cold sweat, when she first came to Beijing, she even worked day and night, just to come to see Yao Shi early.

Obviously, they are just living honestly, how can they not avoid these troubles, Yan sat on the bed in a daze, thinking about the past, thinking about the future, thinking about what Yao will do in the future, and thinking about how Yao will come out in the future.

There was chaos in her head, but there was a sudden thunder outside, which frightened her heart, and when she came back to her senses, she realized that Yao Zhenghe hadn't come back yet, it was almost half an hour, she was in a hurry, she hurriedly got out of bed, and hurriedly walked out as soon as her clothes were draped.

As soon as he walked to the door, before he could push the door, the door was pushed open from the outside, but it was Yao Zhenghe who came back.

Yao Zhenghe's face looked very bad, a little angry, a little helpless and a little confused, Yan thought that Yao Zhenghe was still angry with himself, so he couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "The old husband and wife are still angry with me, I just said that, I know it's not so easy to stay in the city."

At the beginning, Meng'er left us little money, I just calculated, just enough for us to get home, just go back...... I don't know when this winter will pass, there is really no way, there are still some things at home, and I can survive if I sell them. ”

Yao Zhenghe silently walked into the room, sat down on the table, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it all in one go, but he still couldn't suppress the gloom and annoyance in his heart, he poured a few more glasses, and suddenly slammed the cup on the table.

Yan Shi was startled, knowing that Yao Zheng had something on his mind, he sat down and asked, "You said that you went home directly, what are you still angry about?"

"There's no going back. Yao Zhenghe said suddenly without warning, and his tone was half sad and half angry.

Yan Shi was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly: "What do you mean that you can't go back? Is it because the rain is too heavy? You can't leave tomorrow, and it doesn't hurt to delay for a day." ”

Yao Zhenghe was suddenly a little angry: "If you can't go back, you can't go back, your home has been smashed, and the people in the village have fled, guess who I touched, I touched Mao Xiucai." ”

Yan Shi was taken aback, and was a little confused by these words: "What the hell is going on, you can make it clear, what does it mean that someone's house has been smashed, and Mao Xiucai is really here?"

Yao Zhenghe sighed a few times before he said in a low voice: "The refugees from Yuzhou broke into our village, everything was robbed, the house was smashed, the villagers left, many came to Beijing, and some went to other places, Mao Xiucai left last, there are only a few old people in the village who can't walk, Mao Xiucai is planning to go to Beijing, he was originally ...... Going to defect to us. ”

The news was so shocking that Yan couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, and the two were silent for a long time before Yan said in a trembling voice: "At home, it's all smashed?"

"Smashed. Yao Zhenghe said bitterly, in the end, it was the place where he had lived for more than ten years, and if he said no, it was gone, and the place that blessed his family was gone in an instant, and he didn't know where to go now.

Yan asked again, "Where is Mao Xiucai now?"

"Resting next door, I opened a guest room for him, he also suffered a lot of sins along the way, his winter clothes were snatched away, and he also wore a set of thin clothes, and he almost didn't freeze to death all the way. ”

Yan couldn't help but shed tears, Yao Xi has been studying from Mao Xiucai since he was a child, and Mao Xiu is Yao Xiucai's enlightenment teacher, and this kindness alone should be remembered for a lifetime.

The road ahead suddenly ran out, and she didn't know what to do, so she asked: "Mao Xiucai is here, and Xiaotou Village will definitely not be able to go back, what should we do?"

Yao Zhenghe sighed, was silent for a long time, the expression on his face kept changing, sometimes hesitating, sometimes reluctant, sometimes firm, and finally, he gritted his teeth with a bit of determination: "Let's go back to Linxi." ”

Return...... Yan Shi lost her mind for a moment, her eyes were in a trance, and the past passed by like flowing water, although many years have passed, the memories of the past are still vivid.

She sighed with emotion: "Are you going back?

Yao Zheng rubbed his eyebrows with his hands, as if he had given up struggling: "Go back, go back, some things have to be settled after all, and God won't let us live in peace, so ...... It can only be faced. ”

What should I do when I go back? Yan Shi had countless questions in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask them, and if he asked the problem, but he couldn't find a solution, what should he do, there was no way out when he returned to Xiaotou Village, and there might not be a way out when he returned to Beijing.

She didn't ask, but Yao Zhenghe spoke first: "Don't you want to open a restaurant, let's open a restaurant, and I will write and sell paintings with others. As for the house, we can only live in Jinbuju for the time being, and then look for a place to live when the mobile phone has saved some money. ”

He paused, and then said: "Mao Xiucai is kind to us, so let him live in Jinbu, he is just afraid that he will find a private school Mr. to make a living, we can help each other the best." ”

Yan's heart was slightly surprised, she didn't expect Yao Zhenghe to want to live in Beijing, she knew that it was not easy for her own man, and couldn't help but be moved: "This is natural, even if you move out of Jinbuju in the future, you can live in one place, he is the mentor of Xian'er, we should be grateful for it for the rest of our lives." ”

The two of them said yes like this, although they are heavy, but this is the only way at the moment, no matter what, it's wrong, it's just that there are some things, dodging is not the way, maybe ...... In the dark, everyone has a path that must be taken.

Outside the house, the rain was pouring down, only a thunderclap sounded from time to time, and the trees were blown from side to side, swaying from side to side, like ghosts, and the swaying shadows cast on the windows, which seemed a little terrifying.

The room was quiet, there was not even a trace of the wind, the candle flame was beating slightly, Wei Za picked the core of the fire, heard a little fluttering sound from the window outside, he put down the bamboo stick to open the window, but it was a wet pigeon.

Wei Za took off the small bamboo tube on the pigeon's leg, opened it himself, read it first, smiled on his face, walked to Qiu Ji's side and said: "Young master, I finally met, now in Dahe, it will take five days to come back." ”

Qiu Ji bowed slightly, and asked again, "Can you find those refugees who committed the crime?"

"I found some of them, and I gave them all a place to go, and I didn't die of hunger. Eza said.

Qiu Ji leaned back in his chair and sighed slightly: "Sooner or later, those refugees will go to Xiaotou Village, so it's okay, let them all be in Beijing, and I can guard them." ”
