Chapter 18: All Mobilized
The door lock was smashed open, the door was pushed open with a creak, and Bai Xiao's eyes were a little flushed.
This is the place where she has lived for fourteen years, there are not many weeds in the yard, only up to the ankles, it should have been cleaned up by her brother when he came back some time ago, and the door of the house inside was also locked, Bai Xiao took out the key in her neck! This is given to her by her eldest brother, so that she has time to come back and see, but where will she have time.
The Bai family can't wait to keep her from sleeping and working 24 hours a day, she has to do so much housework when she comes back from school in order not to get in the way of other people's eyes, and she has never had a chance to come back since she left this home in her previous life.
This time she's back.
Opening the door, Bai Xiao looked at the tables and benches in the room were covered with thick dust, the mats on the kang were also rolled up, and the roof of the main house was a little dewed.
The whole room was full of dilapidated dust, and in the stove room next to it, half of the stove had collapsed, and the pots and pans should have been received in the cabinet, there was no smoke and fire at all, and even the water tank against the wall was a big hole.
And the poor cottage where she and her sister used to live was so poor that it was almost unrecognizable.
In addition to the courtyard wall, which is still standing strongly, most of the walls inside have collapsed, and after the wind and rain, it is impossible to live at all.
She cautiously pushed the door open, her heart sinking. She saw a room full of fine cobwebs and thick dust, and many small insects and small animals lived.
"Mouse!" she took a step back in fright, and a daring mouse sprang out from her feet.
Bai Jianguo raised a smug smile and let you be reckless.
Showing an innocent look of grievance to Liu Baoguo, "Village chief, look at where people can still live in this house?" I'm really doing this for Bai Xiao's good!"
Liu Baoguo also hesitated, although this house still looks like a house on the outside, it is in disrepair all year round, and now this house is indeed a resident. It's a bit far-fetched, if that's the case, you can't blame Bai Jianguo for not letting Bai Xiao come to live, it seems that his uncle still has some kindness.
"Bai Xiao, look at this house, are you sure you still want to live in it? I'm afraid I won't be able to clean it up in the afternoon. "Liu Baoguo is also kind, he doesn't even have a stove, I'm afraid it's impossible to eat.
"Xiao, let's go back with my uncle, there are rats and spiders here, and there are snakes running down the mountain, you little girl is not at ease here." Uncle promised never to let your grandmother beat you again. Bai Jianguo choked up sadly.
Bai Xiao shook his head, "Uncle, I won't go back, I can skip eating tonight without a pot stove, Uncle Village, please help me build a pot stove, I can't use it today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, I can use it when I can always dry it thoroughly." If before, I didn't dare to live here, I see the dilapidated scene here today. I decided that I had to stay here, it was my parents' house, you were the only thing my parents could leave to my brother, and now I am sorry for leaving the house like this, my parents.
If I stayed here, lived here, cleaned every day, cleaned up this house every day, at least it wouldn't be like it is now, it's all my fault, and I will live here well in the future. Take care of this house, you let my brother have a hot meal and a clean place to live when he comes back in the future. Uncle, aunt, folks, please help me! This is the only thing my parents have left. I can't let them be under the Nine Springs, and they can't be at ease. ”
Bai Xiao bowed to everyone! buried her body deeply, humbly pleaded, this is her home, it is also the home of her brothers and sisters, it is a place where they can shelter from the wind and rain, and it must not be destroyed by Bai Jianguo.
People's hearts are long, hearing Bai Xiao's words, the whole village, young and old, men and women are uncomfortable, who can be comfortable hearing this, if one day he dies his own child, and he doesn't even keep the house and family business he left behind, it is estimated that he will jump out of the coffin board when he dies.
This kid was right, the only thing his parents had left, and she couldn't let this house go down.
An Zhiyuan waved his hand, "Comrades, folks, everyone has children, and when everyone encounters difficulties, the big guys all reach out to help, and our PLA comrades take the lead, rest assured, we are all engineers, and we will leave the problem of tinkering to us, whether it is the roof, the courtyard wall or the stove, we are responsible for getting it right, the big guy can help a little, after all, they all live in a village, you all watched her grow up, I believe that the big guys are kind people." Turning his head to the soldier behind him, he said.
"Comrades, go, the big guy takes the tools, asks the fellows to borrow the car, and the remaining part goes to dig the mud to make the mud embryo, and the part stays here, and the mud begins to go to the house, and the mud and the courtyard wall can be wiped with mud and water, and after the mud embryo is dried tomorrow, we will repair the collapsed house. and the stove shall be erected. Let's get started. ”
An Zhiyuan gave an order, and the dozen or so People's Liberation Army soldiers behind him immediately rolled up their sleeves, borrowed cars from fellow villagers, and the rest went to their cars outside to get their sappers shovels or something, and came back to work.
As soon as Liu Baoguo saw that the People's Liberation Army had moved, he hurriedly greeted the rest of the villagers without saying a word, "Don't say anything, if you can help, hurry up, and go home to help push the cart." Let's get to work quickly, and let's make do with the house tonight for this girl. At the very least, let her live first. ”
The two people immediately all started moving.
The medical attendant had already been brought over, helped Bai Xiao to sit on a broken stool in the courtyard, disinfected and cleaned the wound on his arm, and then stitched it up, because there was no anesthetic, Bai Xiao broke out in a cold sweat in pain.
In fact, she could have not asked the conscripts to help her heal, as long as no one was paying attention in the dead of night, she could close the door and heal the wound herself, her ability is the healing ability, although the consumption is very large, after each healing, she will be cold, as if she fell into an ice hole, but this is also the price she deserves.
As long as people don't die, and there is still a breath, no matter what kind of injury or illness, her ability can bring the dead back to life.
But now is not the time to use it, if she is too good to heal her injuries at this time, I am afraid that the Bai family will start to speak ill of her everywhere, and maybe they will preach everywhere that she is pretending, so when the conscripts help her with treatment, she will grit her teeth, and she will endure it.
Only let the whole village see that she is dying in pain today, if the Bai family wants to come to the door again, everyone has eyes and brains to think about what is going on in this matter, and when the time comes, Bai Jianguo and Li Chunhua can't help but talk nonsense and distort the facts.
She is also willing to pay this price for this ending.
