Song Jingtang had already thought about the worst outcome in the many days he had been on the mountain, but at first glance, he was still in a trance, and he almost didn't stand still, but it was the Song family who came with him who helped him.

Song Jingtang is the only one in charge of the house, even if he is still a young man, in the end, it is the main family, the servant led Song Jingtang into the courtyard, half of the wall of the moon cave door collapsed, the tiles fell to the ground, and there were things scattered on the porch path.

Only one of the servants came back, and before he could clean up, he first went all over the garden to see if there was anyone, and the next man died a few times in the house, and half of the things in the house were rushed out, and he turned into the main courtyard, and first saw that the door was locked well, but the inlaid shell glass was all broken, and he stretched out his head to look inside, and almost didn't spit it out.

This is the main house, the old lady and the old lady are not there, the only one who can stay in it is naturally Song Wanghai, the servant does not dare, and the second is that he has not seen the master's house, it is not good to touch the corpse, not to mention that he still closes his eyes and does not know that it is better and better, and he walked all the way and said: "The young master is careful, the master is in trouble, and the young master should not be too sad." ”

Song Jingtang had red eyes, he had already cried when he was on the mountain, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old person, raised in Jinling since he was a child, Gan's family couldn't wait to spread his wings to protect a pair of children from the fireworks outside, and when he grew up to such a big age, not to mention the flood, the beggars outside did not ask him to take a second look.

Song Jingtang followed the boat on the mountain, and the seasickness was almost cured, and he also saw many bubbly corpses, the death must not be good-looking, the glass was broken, the door was still bolted, and the things inside floated up and soaked for many days, and everything that should be rotten was rotten.

But Song Jingtang didn't expect him to see such a scene, and the strange servant didn't dare to clean it up, although the three people inside couldn't distinguish their faces, they were naked, and they didn't have a single piece of clothing on their bodies, so they were exposed.

Song Jingtang's tears endured back alive, such a scene, who will clean it up, it was still absurd before he died, or maybe it was because of the absurdity that he couldn't escape.

How can this look be seen by outsiders, Song Jingtang covered his mouth and nose with a cloth, went into the house to find a cloth to cover the three of them, and finally picked up the bed tent of ** and covered the three people, but in this way, how to send it.

Song Wanghai's last appearance consumed all his sadness, and he knew in his heart that he should be sad, and it was indeed great sadness, but this sadness was like the retreating water, leaving chicken feathers all over the ground.

found Song Wanghai, and had to find his grandfather and grandmother, the old servant said: "The old lady and the old lady went to Dongshan to burn incense, and rested for the night, and the in-laws and wives in the wall also followed." ”

Song Jingtang breathed a sigh of relief, and then sent someone to Dongshan, sat down at home by himself, and told the old servant that whoever came back on an errand would be given rice and grain, and quickly put the door right and cleaned up the things in the house.

The coffin shop was crowded, the wood soaked could not be sold for money, but there was always something to send, the rice grain store called to rob an empty one, the coffin shop made a fortune, the government was short of manpower, so it requisitioned the active people, arranged for them to patrol the streets to carry the corpses for cremation, and then distributed rice grain to support the family, but also to prevent the post-disaster riots.

Song Jingtang sent someone to buy a coffin, and he made it clear that he wanted a big one, no matter how much money, he knew that Song Wanghai's death was not good-looking, and he was blissful to say that he was blissful, and he wanted to shake his wit to comfort the young master, and he followed him to Jinling City as a familiar person, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw Song Jingtang's face was pale, and he quickly closed his mouth and went down to do something.

The next person went, Song Jingtang looked at the devastation, and wanted to raise his hand to help a stone bench, but he didn't have the strength in his hand, so he simply leaned on the edge of the fence and sat down, where was there a tile on the top, picked up the hem of his clothes and twisted it dry, and felt absurd in his heart, sitting and looking at the blue sky, he was stunned.

When the Song family got the letter, the house in Sweetwater Town had been repaired, and the money and food brought by Song Mian came in handy, and the government was short of manpower, and every family had thefts, and they couldn't prevent it.

The Song family has already been stolen once, and there is no gold or silver left, this time I came again to steal food, Song Jingtang first wanted to distribute some, and told the old servant to stop: "The young master is kind-hearted, but how many people are left in this city, we only have how many things, if we give one, we have to give ten hundred, and if you want to take it back, it won't be done." ”

Song Jingtang withstood this time, removed half of the stupidity, handled the funeral first, carried the coffin out, burned it as well, and erected three monuments.

Song Mian first met with Song Jingtang and then went back to find the grave, where is there a grave, those who built a tomb, but can still find the broken monument, like he just set up a wooden sign, where can you still find a place, the fields and houses are not the original appearance, the grave is gone, where to worship.

Song Mian still remembered Shi Gui's entrustment, Lanxi and Meixi were not much different, the same was affected by the disaster, and it was not as good as the patriarch of the Song family who led people up the mountain, half of which was relying on his own family, he inquired for a round, and finally did not even find the body.

Some people saw that he was from outside, but they were willing to say a few sentences, and some simply picked it on him to eat, Song Mian couldn't ask anything at all, only knew that there was indeed such a family in the village, but he didn't know where the family went.

The Song family came to do something, but not to find a family for a little girl, Song Mian was single-handed, walked around the village, almost asked someone to empty it, and someone pointed to the house to show him, he stretched out his head to look over, there was only one foundation left in the earthen house, and there was nothing.

Song Mian thought about Shi Gui in her heart, she was so looking forward to her family's well-being, but how could she tell her these words, Song Mian met people who had returned to their hometowns at the entrance of the village, and they looked neatly dressed, saying that they were going to catch up with the Nine Emperor Temple Fair, and they escaped.

Song Mian hurriedly asked if there was Shi Gui's family inside, and when the woman who started heard that Shi Gui entrusted him, her nose was sour and tears flowed: "This child is a conscience." ”

It's not another Bai Auntie, the family went to the temple fair, so they escaped a big flood, took Song Mian's hand, and said everything, from picking up Shi Gui and giving it to the Shi family, to selling herself to the Song family.

Song Mianyuan was just that her parents sold her when she couldn't live at home, and she couldn't imagine that she was willing to do it for her family, so she wanted her family to have a way to live.

"Qiu Niang got up early and was greedy for darkness, and the stone went out to run the boat, just to redeem her. Aunt Bai cried all the way, tears flowed down and hit Song Mian's hand, his throat was blocked, and those words couldn't be said to Shi Gui.

"Then, the Shi family can ......" Song Mian couldn't ask if he was still alive, but Aunt Bai shook her head at him: "Shi went out to run the boat, Qiu Niang and Yu Pozi are at home, two women and a child......

Before the words were finished, he recited two more sins, the water dragon king offered every year, and even more in the summer moon, hoping that it would make wind and rain, keep a place safe, and send these many three animals, but it was not possible to change peace.

Song Mian was stunned, and gave all the remaining silver to Aunt Bai, if she met, let her bring a letter, Aunt Bai nodded, raised her sleeves and wiped her tears: "Her father is always there." ”

Song Mian nodded, how could this news be passed on to her, so as to hold on to a slim hope, or let her know that the house had collapsed and nothing was left.

Shi Gui copied a heart sutra for Qiu Niang stone every day in Jinling, she originally did not believe in Buddhism, but at this time she longed for the gods and Buddhas to manifest their spirits, and there was hope in her heart, and she slowly came over, she could say that she could move, and she could be an errand.

Jin Li knelt until the evening, the hosta screamed, but she didn't say whether her punishment was over, and when Shi Gui gradually got better, the Ye family seemed to have forgotten this stubble, the family had already got the letter, and Song Wanghai was gone.

The news came to the Song family, where can I still care about whether the girl is punished or not, there is no bright color in the Mandarin Duck Pavilion, and a pot of bright chrysanthemums is still called broken, the Ye family took out the filial piety clothes, not to mention the children of the Song family, Song Yintang mentioned Yu Rong, and the old lady hurriedly sent a letter to the Shen family to push the marriage back.

Gan Shi woke up easily, and Song Zhimei didn't dare to tell her mother, but she asked again and again, knowing that her son's parents were fine, so she breathed a long sigh of relief and was able to sit up.

The Song family was the only one who died, but Song Wanghai, the younger brother of the old lady Song, the only son died, and he couldn't stand the blow overnight, and fell ill in bed, and Song Jingtang accompanied the sick.

The little girls all changed out of bright clothes, and the clever ones had already worn plain colors, and at this time a white belt was added to the waist, and the rings were removed, and the door plaques in the west courtyard were pasted with white paper.

The corpse could not be put away, it was cooked early in the morning, and there were two concubines who were gone, one was a golden finch, and the other was a prostitute that Song Wanghai brought in outside.

Gan knew that his son was fine, and inquired about his mother's family, and the Gan family also suffered casualties, and few women and children who stayed at home escaped, but a nephew followed his grandmother and grandfather up the mountain, which saved him from a catastrophe.

The Gan family's house in Tianshui was badly damaged, Gan's family picked up some silver, and sent it to the Song family, the old lady only thought she couldn't stand it, how did she know that she could still think of her mother's family, and sent someone for her, seeing her like this, she was relieved: "I have written a letter to go back, take care of your mother's family together, Jingtang is also there, and I will always take care of the outsider." ”

After the opening of the dynasty, there was also a flood like this, and the refugees looked pitiful and would make trouble, but anyone who was richer was a sin in their eyes, and it was good to rob something.

There was no shortage of manpower in Song's hometown, and the patriarch ordered people to enter the city, and the Gan family was on the wall of the Song family, patrolling together, only the shop and rice store suffered heavy losses, not for two or three years, but this breath could not be relieved.

The only son is gone, the heir is gone, the old lady Song took a long vacation, Song Yintang also had to worry about Ding, he was easy to be a Jishi, and before he had been an errand for a few months, he had to worry about Ding, it was a bad luck, but his errand was that the prince opened his mouth, and he couldn't be clean from the root, so it was better to keep filial piety, and after keeping filial piety, the old lady Song would be the master and pass him to Song Siyuan's name.

Song Zhimei has always been guarding against Gan's inability to think about it, she knew that her mother had a deep affection for her father when she was a child, how could she know that Gan had just been able to stand up, so she took Yinfeng to Song Wanghai's study, and Song Zhimei was not allowed to follow, closed the door and made Yinfeng rummage through the cabinets, and turned out those pickled things, all of which were left in the brazier and burned.

The two boxes were locked, and the keys were nowhere to be found, so Gan leaned back in his chair and raised his hand to point the copper hat rack: "Smash the lock open for me." ”

Yinfeng acted as he said, holding his hands up, still afraid of smashing the box, Gan sighed: "What do I keep this box for, I will smash the things inside, and I won't do your business." ”

Yinfeng exerted his strength, the two locks were broken into two halves, and the boxes were called knocking off a corner, and the things in the two boxes were brought together, and Gan asked Yinfeng to burn those belly pockets and spring books, and brought his own things back to the room to slowly pick them up, there were house deeds and title deeds, and some beads and gems, and I don't know where he collected them.

Gan's literacy was not much, so he called Song Zhimei and picked them up one by one: "These are the foundation of our life in the future." Song Zhimei looked at her mother in a daze: "Mother, if your father is gone, you will ...... Isn't it sad?"

Gan was still holding the title deed in his hand, but he didn't expect Song Wanghai to hide from her that he had added so many fields and shops, his heart trembled, and then he remembered that this was the money given to him by his family, and he had saved his personal savings for many years, and took them out to Song Zhimei for family affairs, and he could hide it from his conscience, and blamed him for having money to make prostitutes outside.

"He didn't take us to heart, and he wanted to be sad for him. After saying such a cruel sentence, the tears fell on the deed paper, and there was a tear spot, in the end, she was still sad, at that time she was only her daughter's current age, after 20 years, this person is no longer her sweetheart.

Song Zhimei didn't understand why her mother was crying again when she said that she was not sad, because she was afraid that her mother's sadness would be worse, she didn't dare to cry to Gan's, she swallowed tears and covered them in the quilt, and they would have no support in the future.

How do you know that my mother has the strength to think about this, seeing that Gan wiped her tears, picked up the title deed, collected it, and took her daughter's hand: "I only count on you and your brother now." ”
