Chapter 4: Little Sister
Erhei suddenly felt a little weak, he peeked at her, and said, "What...... What Li Lao Wu?"
The little sister smiled slightly, and the smile was very good-looking. Immediately, she suddenly put away her smile and said indifferently: "What I'm talking about is: 'The one who raised the army on the side of one million Zhaoyang, and immediately the first peak of Shu Mountain'. When she said this, her eyes kept staring at Erhei, as if she wanted to see him through.
"Did I make it clear enough?" asked the little sister.
"How do you know? Who the hell are you?" Erhei grabbed her arm and stared at her vigilantly, although this person didn't seem to have any malicious intent, but just by the fact that she could say this couplet, she knew that things must not be simple.
Perhaps, she knows more than that......
Erhei couldn't help but feel a chill rise in his heart.
The girl shook off Erhei's hand, sat down on the only stool in Erhei's house very unceremoniously, and said, "I just want to know if you are Wang Juewen?
Erhei looked at her for a long time, and finally compromised, so he asked her, "How did you know about Li Lao Wu......?" Aquarius?"
Xiaomei smiled: "You finally admit it?"
Erhei looked nervous and noncommittal to her words. Xiaomei looked at him for a while, got up from the creaking broken stool, approached and looked at Erhei, and said, "I am Li Laowu's daughter, my name is Xiaomei." ”
"Daughter?" Erhei looked at her carefully, to be honest, Erhei was not yet a year old when the battle broke out, and he had no impression of what was going on in the cottage at all. If it weren't for the few words his father had said before, he would have known almost nothing. At this time, let alone Li Lao Wu's daughter, even if Li Lao Wu himself was pestled in front of him, he didn't know him at all.
looked at her because she was surprised to hear these words, and secondly, she created a little illusion of scrutiny to confuse the other party to see if the other party would reveal any flaws.
But the little sister showed no flaws, but looked calm and relaxed, and said: "You can choose not to believe me, but ......" She looked around, and then leaned close to his face and asked, "I went to great lengths to check your information, and then I found you all the way to lie to you just to say this?"
Her face was almost close to Erhei's ear, and she asked him with a smile, "What do you have to deceive me?"
Erhei's old face suddenly turned red, her words really got to the point, he had nothing to deceive. But after all, it was a stranger he had never met, and Erhei was still hesitant in his heart. The little sister was not in a hurry, she clasped her arms and looked at him with a good look.
Erhei thought about it for a long time, and then asked her, "Then after so many years, why did you come to me now?"
"Not now," the little sister shook her head, "I've been looking for you for a long time, do you think it's easy to find someone?" Originally, I didn't want to come, but my father told me to find you before he died. She sat back down on the stool, not seeming to hear the stool crumbling under her ass.
"I came to you this time because your grandfather left something for you. But I don't know exactly what it is, maybe it's a treasure, maybe it's a last word, maybe it's nothing. But I can't bring it, so I'll need you to pick it up yourself. ”
Hearing this, Erhei suddenly sneered twice: "Do you think I will believe it?"
Xiaomei also laughed with him, and after laughing, she only said six words: "I think, you will." ”
"At least, I won't let you starve to death. After saying this, she stood up, and said as she walked out: "Think about it, would you like to stay here and starve to death, or do you choose to trust me once? ”
She paused for a moment and added, "I'll just wait a day." ”
Her words were very firm, and she seemed to anticipate that Erhei would definitely go. With that, she walked away. Erhei heard the door "squeak", and he hurriedly chased it out to look, but the little sister had long since disappeared. At a glance, Uncle Liu, who only saw the opposite door, sat in the courtyard in a daze with a worried face, and seemed to have a lot on his mind.
Erhei stood at the door and asked, "Uncle Liu, what's wrong with you?" Uncle Liu is in his fifties, his skin is dry and wrinkled, his body is thin, he is an old neighbor of Erhei's family, and he has a close relationship with Erhei's family, especially after Erhei's father died, Erhei was taken care of by Uncle Liu's family.
Uncle Liu sighed: "I just heard that the rice that I moved to the neighboring village is all gone......! It's all gone!"
At that time, it was common for farmland to yield 10,000 catties per mu, so it was not surprising that the rice from the two villages was merged in order to cater to the inspection of the leaders.
Erhei was also shocked when he heard the news suddenly, so much rice, all gone?
"Wasn't it all right when the leaders came to inspect yesterday?"
"Hey, think about it, how long can that unripe rice live if it is pulled out of the ground......" Uncle Liu sighed incessantly, and something kept rolling in his cloudy old eyes. His wife died early, there are three children in the family, and the eldest and the second are starving to death, now it seems. I'm afraid I'm going to be soon......
"What kind of face can you tell me to go to the baby......
If he still had some strength, maybe this sentence would sound a little more sad and angry, but obviously the long-term hunger had made him have no extra strength to increase the tone of his speech, so this sentence only sounded helpless and desolate to outsiders. Because anger needs strength to excite before it can explode, perhaps what he wants to do most now is not to vent, sigh or insult, but to eat a bowl of paste, or a bowl of porridge, or even a bowl of rice soup.
Erhei was also cold when he heard this, and he didn't know how many people would have to die. He once saw with his own eyes that Zhang Haozi's second son in the next village was starving to death, and Zhang Haozi secretly hid and cooked his son's meat, and before he could eat two bites, the cadres dragged him to the entrance of the village and died.
At that time, Erhei happened to faint from hunger at the back of Zhang Haozi's house, and he was awakened by a burst of meat incense. He felt that the smell of meat was a little strange, and there was an inexplicable smell in the fragrance. Maybe it's stinky pork.
He quietly got up and followed the scent to the window of Zhang Haozi's house, where Zhang Haozi sat sideways on a broken stool, and on the ground in front of him lay a casserole with a missing corner.
