Chapter 25: It's Finally Here!

When the day came, everyone went their separate ways. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIf you have relatives, you can find relatives, and if you don't have relatives, you go to the city or a nearby village to rent a house. After discussing with the old patriarch's second uncle, Yun Lan placed the people of Yunjiaao in a village called Sujia Village, about five miles away from the city gate. I rented two idle farmhouse courtyards, and there were fifteen or sixteen rooms for the elderly, children, and the sick and weak to live in, and then built a row of thatched huts on the vacant land at the entrance of the village to settle down temporarily.

Yun Lan gave the village chief of Sujia Village twenty taels of silver, saying that he would live for a month temporarily, and if he had to continue to live in the future, it would not be too late to discuss it at that time.

Grandpa's family, as well as the people who came together in Grandpa's village, a total of more than 60 people, are also at the foot of Sujia Village. Yun Lan quietly gave her grandfather thirty taels of silver, as well as two pieces of soap and two pieces of soap. didn't care about the affairs of the Su family, took the people of his mother's family and his two sons, and hurried to his own house in Fucheng.

This village is hidden in the green mountains and green waters, and there is only one intersection into the village. Moreover, this intersection is not large, and can only be used by one ox cart to enter and exit. If the world is uneven, unless there is a well-trained army invading, otherwise, as long as you hold this crossing, you don't have to worry too much.

Well, speaking of which, it's a great place to retreat. What's even better is that it is only five miles away from the city, and it is very convenient to enter and exit the city. In fact, it is more valuable than the small county town of Feng County.

Uncle Su Hu couldn't help but be very moved and had the idea of settling here. In the future, even if the impact of ground movement is not great, it will return to Fengxian County, and this place can also be used as a foothold. In the future, when you come to Fucheng, you don't have to go to the guest house. When the time is ripe, he can also pour a little mountain goods from the mountain villages in Feng County and come to this city to sell. In addition, if you have a place to stay here, you can also ask the first junior high school to help you get the Suda brothers to go to school in the academy in Fucheng.

Thinking about it like this, his determination became even stronger, so he quickly found the village chief and the patriarch, and each of them gave five taels of silver, two bags of pastries, and a bottle of fruit wine, and asked to buy a homestead in Sujiazhuang and build a small farm yard.

The village chief and the patriarch exchanged words for a while, and finally nodded.

The patriarch said: "Okay, for the sake of you who are also surnamed Su, you can be regarded as an old ancestor." There is a wasteland at the east end of the village, about two acres in size, if you don't dislike the many stones and thorns, then ten taels of silver, and they will all cross you! ”

The people in the village disliked that piece of land, and no one wanted it.

"Thank you Patriarch, thank you Village Chief!" Su Hu is full of joy, how can he dislike it? There are many stones, and there are many thorns, so what? As long as he has his own homestead, even if it is a stinky puddle, he will not dislike it.

Because he was willing to spend money, the patriarch and the village chief each got a tael of silver, and the next day they helped him measure the homestead and handle the white deed.

"When the house is built, I will take you to the official mansion to handle the official red deed!" The village chief said to Suhu in front of the patriarch and several villagers, as well as a few young men who grew up with Suhu.

"Thank you!" Su Hu hugged his fists and thanked him.

When I heard that Suhu was going to build a house, people from Yunjiaao and Sujiawan in Fengxian County flocked to it. There are also many people from the local Sujia Village who come to inquire.

With a wave of his hand, Su Hu selected thirty young and strong people from Feng County who were diligent and responsible. In addition, the village chief of Sujia Village was invited to introduce a local construction team of 10 people.

Yun Lan's family of three, as well as three domestic servants, came to the home in Fucheng. Suda, sure enough, is waiting here. He used the key given by Yun Lan to open the courtyard door, and he was diligent and clever, and he had already cleaned the house. Even the bedding in the box was taken out and placed in the sun to keep it warm.

"Auntie, you're back!" Su Da heard the knock on the door, saw the person from the cat's eye, and hurriedly opened the courtyard door.

"Well, yes, you found it here!" Su Shi smiled with relief, he had been worried about whether this nephew would encounter something and lose his trace.

"It's easy to find." Suda stuck his head out and looked left and right: "What about my father and my mother?" ”

Yun Lan: "They lived in a village called Sujia Village about five miles on the outskirts of the city, and the people from Yunjiaao and Sujiawan lived there. There are more than 300 people, you don't have to worry! ”

Su Da hurriedly said, "How to go?" I'm going to find my parents! ”

Yun Lan hurriedly stopped: "Let's go again tomorrow, everyone is tired today, take a break, and let Uncle Fang send you over tomorrow!" In the afternoon, you and Uncle Fang go to the street to buy more oil, salt, cloth and food, just in case! ”

"It's okay, just listen to the first sister of junior high school. By the way, I boiled a big pot of hot water, thinking that you would definitely be back today. Sister of the first junior high school, are you tired? Then you take a rest first, I'll take Yun Kai and Yun Qing to bathe and change clothes! "Suda is a sensible person, with a lively personality but not impulsive, and a fifteen-year-old young man, who has experienced such a thing, and is a little calmer than in the past.

"Well, thank you!" Yun Lan was not polite to him, so she fetched water in the well, washed her hands and face and feet, changed her coat and pants, and went to make up for sleep.

Along the way, from the county seat of Feng County to Fucheng, her spirit has been highly tense. One day and two nights, I barely closed my eyes. Saying that she is not tired, that is false, in fact, she can fall asleep while standing.

She slept for five hours and ten hours.

When I woke up, it was already the dead of night, and I was still awakened by urine. Otherwise, she would probably be able to sleep until dawn.

She went up to the hut and came to the hall, where she sat at the table drinking tea and pondering.

When the sister-in-law heard the movement, she guessed that she might have gotten up, so she hurriedly got up in her clothes: "First year of junior high school, are you hungry?" I've left you food, it's warm in the pot, I'll bring it to you!" ”

"Okay, thank you, sister-in-law." Yun Lan smiled slightly, when her sister-in-law mentioned this, she really felt that she was too hungry to do it.

Yun Lan is still very satisfied with this sister-in-law, and she has always gotten along very well for a few years. It's not that the sister-in-law is so good, but the sister-in-law is very filial to her father, and she has never been harsh to the stones, and she doesn't show her face.

Not to mention anything else, her sister-in-law is much better than the daughters-in-law of those people she knows. The sister-in-law really regards the people of her in-law's family as her relatives. has never despised her, the sister-in-law, who has divorced, and the people in her sister-in-law's family are also honest and responsible people, and they only sympathize with her, and never say a word of unpleasantness.

With only these few points, Yun Lan was satisfied, and there was nothing to say. is a person, it can't be perfect, and sister-in-law actually has such and such small shortcomings. There has never been a contradiction between the sister-in-law and the mother, but as long as the general situation is okay, there is no need to worry too much.

There is still a contradiction between this mother-in-law and daughter!

The sister-in-law came in with a tray of food: "Hurry up and eat a little, you must be hungry, right?" ”

A bowl of rice, a plate of fried dried fish with green peppers, a plate of baby cabbage, a plate of spicy cabbage, and a bowl of chicken soup. In the soup bowl, there are two chicken wings, two chicken feet, and a few pieces of chicken are very good at first glance. Chicken feet and chicken wings are all Yun Lan's favorite foods. The cabbage, at first glance, looks like it has just been fried temporarily.

Yun Lan's heart was very warm.

Before the catastrophe, it is very clear that a person's nature is revealed.

The sister-in-law is still so careful and loving, and it can be seen that she is indeed a good one.

"Your eldest brother went to the academy and went to find a few stones, you don't have to worry! Tomorrow morning, your eldest brother will be back! The sister-in-law sat opposite Yun Lan, watched her eat, and said.

Yun Lan paused and slapped her head suddenly: "I'll just say, before I went to sleep, I kept thinking about it, as if I had forgotten something." The eldest brother went to the academy, that's good, then I'll be relieved! ”

Halfway through, she actually discussed the issue of a few stones with her eldest brother, and agreed that it would be better to let them study hard in the academy for the time being. However, you must give them good guidance and tell them how to protect themselves as much as possible once the ground movement strikes, and how to try to survive and wait for rescue.

On the way, she explained the earthquake knowledge to her family in detail, and also explained it to the second uncle, the old patriarch, and the little uncle. Then, through them, it is conveyed again. According to word of mouth, on the evening when they arrived outside the city, all the people who fled together basically understood what to do.

Early the next morning, the eldest brother and the five stones returned.

The five brothers were all scared. Yun Lan patiently comforted, and the five of them were relieved and promised to go back to study hard. If you don't go back to the academy, you can't do it, this house is so small, it can't accommodate so many people. If you go to Sujia Village, you don't even have a thatched house.

******

The Suhu family soon moved from a thatched house to a blue brick house.

There is a lot of strength in numbers, and the houses built are blue bricks, and the bricks and tiles are all sold, and there is no need to wait for a day. In this way, in just three days, a simple and sturdy farmhouse courtyard was completed!

There are three main rooms, two ear rooms, and two east and west wings. The front yard is half an acre in size, with a well and a transplanted peach tree that is five or six years old. The backyard was one and a half acres in size, a vegetable field was opened, a thatched house was built in the corner, and an apricot tree and a pear tree were planted. A wind and rain pavilion was built, where clothes can be dried when it rains.

The wall is a mixture of green bricks and adobe bricks, starting from the ground, two feet high with green bricks and mud bricks on top. It is three meters high, and the top is densely packed with broken pottery shards and sharp stones.

Geese can take care of the home, not much worse than dogs. Considering that it might not be peaceful, Su Hu went to the next village under the guidance of the villagers, and bought five or six geese that lay eggs and five hens that laid eggs.

Early in the morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Su Hu's family had to move into a new home early in the morning under the urging of the second sister-in-law. A few small ones have not yet woken up, and their eyes are hazy.

Su Hu was speechless, put his luggage in the courtyard, and told everyone about his arrangements.

The east and west wings were arranged into a chase shop by Suhu, one for men and one for women. There are three main rooms, one for him and his wife, one for his parents, and one for his two sons.

The bedroom where the couple lived was the largest one, the master bedroom, which was divided in half by a wardrobe. The couple lived in the inner room, and there was a large bed in the outer room, which was supposed to be the bedroom for the three daughters.

Su Hu's sister-in-law and sister-in-law, including the eldest brother and several children, were very dissatisfied.

The second sister-in-law shouted in front of her: "Why? Look down on people? Why can the old five family live in the main house, and the husband and wife can live together? It's not fair, isn't that what we do? I don't agree, I resolutely don't agree! ”

The sister-in-law was silent, and her eyes were full of unwillingness and complaints.

The children of the second sister-in-law also shouted, as if they had been greatly wronged.

The boss's face was ugly and he didn't say a word, but anyone could see that he was also very angry and dissatisfied.

Su Yuan, that is, Su Hu's father, was a little flustered, and hurriedly looked at his youngest son and discussed with him: "Fifth brother, why don't you give the bedroom you live in to your eldest brother and sister-in-law?" Give the one where Suda lives to your second brother and sister-in-law? ”

When Pan, that is, Su Hu's wife, heard this, her face was immediately pale.

Su Hu's eyes suddenly became sharp, and his eyes glanced coldly at the eldest brother and second brother's family, and finally stopped at the second sister-in-law: "Why? Why do you say? Just rely on this house, it's my Su Lao Wu's! If you don't dislike it, get out of here and move to the biggest and best inn in Fucheng! Or, just live in a thatched hut! ”

"You unfilial thing, how can you talk?! If you are disrespectful to your second sister-in-law again, see if I don't cut you to death! The second brother Su He stomped his feet vigorously, picked up a wooden stick casually, and glared at Su Hu viciously.

"That's it, Uncle Five, hello inhumane, black-hearted thing!" Su He's eldest son, Su Facai, a twelve-year-old boy, even stared at Su Hu with his waist crossed, and his mouth was not clean.

"That's right, fifth uncle, you are too much, you have no conscience, and you don't love your nephews and nieces at all! Fifth uncle like you, I don't want to admit it! The person who said this was Su He's eight-year-old daughter, Su Jasmine.

The contempt and hatred in his eyes were undisguised.

The sister-in-law said coldly: "Fifth child, you see, even a few years old children can't stand it." What to do, you know what to do, right? ”

Big brother: "Fifth brother, you, don't chill everyone's hearts!" ”

Su Hu was so angry that his heart was trembling, and he immediately snatched the wooden stick in Su He's hand and waved it at his eldest brother and second brother: "Get out, take your family, get out of here for me!" Brothers and sisters-in-law like you, my Suhu Lake is not rare, and I can't climb high! ”

As he spoke, he quickly threw out the salutes of the two families that were still in the courtyard. Not long after I came in, I didn't have time to open and put the saluting items apart.

Boss Su and Boss Su were very shocked and angry, looking at the eyes of the fifth child, it was like trying to eat people.

The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law, as well as a few children, also began to sprinkle, saying something that they didn't have.

Su Hu's mother, Tan Shi, was so frightened that the six gods were at a loss and didn't know what to do.

Su Yuan was furious and shouted: "Shut up for me!" ”

The eldest brother and the second brother and the two families were unwilling to shut up.

Su Yuan glared at his youngest son, his face full of sadness: "Fifth brother, do you want to drive your father and mother away with you like this to your eldest brother and second brother's family?" ”

Su Hu frowned slightly: "Dad, how could it be?" How could you think that? If the son has a tiled house to live in, he will never let his father and mother live in a thatched house; My son has dry rice to eat, and he will never let his father and mother drink porridge! ”

Su Yuan stared at his youngest son: "Since you are still a filial son, then listen to your father and give the main house to your eldest brother and second brother's house!" ”

Su Hu's heart was cold: "What if, I don't agree?" ”

For his father, he didn't have much to expect for a long time.

Su Yuan: "If you don't agree, it is not filial, and my father and mother dare not live here with you, so I have to go to live in a thatched hut!" ”

He also knew that in fact, this request was a bit unreasonable for his youngest son. However, who called Su Hu not the eldest son? He and his wife have to rely on the eldest family for the rest of their lives, and they want the boss to provide for them. The boss's family must not be offended. The second family has always been very difficult and can't afford to provoke. There was no way, so I had to grieve the old five family.

Fortunately, the third child and the third daughter-in-law, as well as the third son and daughter, are all honest and responsible. Otherwise, even the bedroom where he and his wife lived would have to be let out.

The third Su Quan was so shocked that he shuddered, and hurriedly spoke to dissuade him: "Dad, you can't do this to the fifth child, the fifth child is also your biological son!" He yelled at the eldest and second child: "What do you want to do? The dove occupies the magpie's nest? This is the fifth child's home, you are just guests, do you know with the host? It's good to have a side room to live in, but you want to be anti-guest-oriented? Is it okay to have a little conscience? It's too much of a deception! ”

The wife and children of the third child were also stunned by the shamelessness of the eldest and second family and their father. The family looked at the Su He family, all with distress and sympathy.

As a parent, it is actually difficult to level a bowl of water, and eccentricity is inevitable. It's just that being biased like this makes it difficult to accept and very speechless. The third child is not a fool, how can he be willing to be bullied like this?

Su Lao Da and Su Lao Er quarreled with Su Lao San, and the two scolded Su Lao San for a while, and the scolding was very ugly. Even, even Su Laosan's wife and children did not let go of any of them.

Mother Tan was so anxious that she persuaded this and that, but no one listened to her.

The eldest and second had the upper hand, and Su Yuan didn't say a word, pretending not to hear. From time to time, he also threatened Su Hu with his eyes, suggesting that he hurriedly fulfilled the wish of the eldest and second child and calmed things down.

Su Hu's heart was cold, he looked at his father coldly, and said expressionlessly: "Since you want to live in a thatched hut so much, then go and live!" My son, no matter what he does, he can't warm your heart, so I can't help it! Anyway, I'll just say a word, the eldest and the second, I definitely won't stay! In the future, there is no need to go back and forth! ”

These words are like a shock.

Everyone present was stunned.

Su Lao Wu, who has always loved his younger generations, has always been very filial to his parents, and has always been very respectful to his brother, Su Lao Wusu Hu, has such a ruthless side! Honest people started a fire, it turned out, it's really scary!

"You two families, get out of here! In the future, I don't want to see you again, greedy and insufficient! Su Hu roared angrily, and the wooden stick in his hand was picked up, and the momentum was very terrifying.

At this time, there was a sudden shake

******

When I came to Fucheng, three days passed quickly.

On the fourth day, after lunch, Yun Lan always felt very uneasy, and the well water at home began to bubble. In the middle of last night, she also heard a lot of unusual movements. I discussed with my family and sent my eldest brother to the academy in a hurry to pick up the five brothers.

The eldest brother responded quickly: "Okay, I'll go now, and bring people back safely early tomorrow morning!" "At this time, I had just had lunch, and the sun was about to set when I went to the academy.

It's just that people are not as good as heaven.

The next day, Yun Lan didn't wait for the eldest brother's return. From the morning, until the evening, I didn't wait. Because, early the next morning, when the sky was still bright, she felt a burst of abnormal movements.

The table was shaking, and the roof tiles were falling down with a clatter. The chickens next door screamed in horror. The well water is bubbling out vigorously, but it is much more violent than before! But I can barely stand up, and by feeling, this should not be the epicenter. My hometown Feng County, maybe it's the epicenter, right?

The earthquake is finally here!

Yun Lan's drowsiness suddenly disappeared, she woke up, and as soon as she woke up, she rushed to the window, opened the window and shouted: "Dad, mother, sister-in-law, second girl, the ground is moving!" Hurry up and get dressed and run to a spacious place! ”

While shouting, he quickly put on his coat.

Because she was worried, when she went to bed last night, she didn't take off her pants at all, but just took off her coat. The same is true for Yunkai and Yunqing. Three people, not even taking off their socks. Shoes that are placed in front of the bed are also easier to wear.

After putting on her coat, she quickly pulled the two children up from the bed and put on their coats and shoes neatly. Immediately afterwards, the two children were quickly pulled out of the bedroom and placed in the large open space at the door.

This vacant land, about an acre in size, is surrounded by bungalows, and the roof tiles of the houses facing the street have almost fallen, and it looks like it should be quite safe. At this time, the second girl was already carrying a backpack and followed.
