40 Self-blame

It was destined to be a sleepless night.

After Li Mo and Li Yan left, Li Man carried the children upstairs and gently coaxed them to sleep, as if nothing had happened.

But when the children really fell asleep, she looked at the roof, stunned, and uncomfortable.

"Man'er." It was easy to stabilize the aunt's mood, Li Hua came upstairs and shouted Li Man a few times, she didn't seem to hear it, and her heart rolled through a period of discomfort.

Silently took off his clothes and got into the bed.

Li Man was stunned, turned his head to look at him, his eyes were red, and his voice was light and choked.

"Li Hua, your third brother, will he deliberately hide and not let us find him?"

"No, Man'er." Li Hua took her into his arms distressedly and gently comforted, "The eldest brother and the second brother have already gone to look for it, maybe they will come back tomorrow." ”

"Oh." Having said that, Li Man was still panicked in her heart, and she had a very bad intuition.

Thinking of Li Shu's abnormality these days, and she was just bored, she didn't expect this one, and her heart hurt like a pinprick.

"A few days ago, Li Shu was very abnormal, he often told me that he wanted me to take good care of myself and take care of my children, I knew that this was very wrong, but I didn't care, I never thought that he would leave home."

For a long time, except for Li Yan, Li Shu was the most sticky to her, she never thought that in this life, he would still have time to leave her.

In the dim light, Li Man looked at him with red eyes, helpless and innocent.

Hearing the guilt in her voice, Li Hua felt distressed, "Man'er, it's none of your business." ”

"No, it's me who is bad, all along, I have neglected him. He's already shown it so obvious, and I'm not noticing. As he spoke, Li Man's voice choked, tears flickered in his eyes, thinking of Li Shu's everything, tears finally slipped from the corners of his eyes uncontrollably.

"Why am I so confused? If I had said anything more to keep him, he wouldn't have left. ”

"Li Shu, he is a simple and enthusiastic person, what if he is deceived outside? He is so impulsive, will he be bullied? ”

"Li Hua, I'm worried that something will happen to him."

Finally, Li Man couldn't hold back, and threw herself into Li Hua's arms and cried.

"Man'er." Li Hua hugged her tightly, and her heart was also troubled, the third brother's departure was too sudden, but it seemed inevitable.

"Third brother, he has had a heroic dream since he was a child, perhaps, he just went to realize his dream."

"Heroic dreams?" Li Man was taken aback, and seemed to think that Li Shuchang likes to listen to the stories of some heroes the most, and his biggest ideal seems to be to be a general, to be able to go into battle to kill the enemy, to protect his family and defend the country, and to be able to sway his blood to his heart's content.

But even so, can he leave her, the children who are not yet half a year old, his brothers, and the family that has finally become richer?

"I don't care." Li Man's voice was hoarse, with a slight cry, and he said fiercely, "When he comes back, I will ignore him anymore." ”

"Okay, wait for him to come back, ignore him." Li Hua coaxed softly, but his heart was also up and down.

The third brother is not as calm as the eldest brother, and he is not as sleek as the second brother, he is impulsive but the most persistent, he does not make decisions easily, it seems that he has followed the eldest brother and the second brother since he was a child, and he doesn't like to make up his mind.

However, Li Hua knew that the more he was like this, he would not make a decision easily, but once he made a decision, he couldn't pull back the nine cows.

This departure must have been fully prepared and determined.

I hope that the eldest brother and the second brother will be lucky and find him back while he hasn't gone far.

Otherwise......

Li Hua already had the worst in his heart.

Five days later, the worst was fully realized.

There were two people who went out to find them, but now they are the only ones who come back, about this trip to eat and sleep, and when they came back, Li Mo had a slag beard and was very tired.

"Big brother, what about the second brother?" Li Hua asked in shock.

Without seeing Li Shu, Li Man had already guessed the result, but at this moment, even Li Yan was gone, she didn't know how to describe her feelings, she only felt like she was immersed in an ice cellar, shivering with cold, she couldn't even ask, only trembling slightly.

I only heard Li Mo say that they went to a camping house closest to this goddess ditch, but not only did they not find anyone, but they were almost arrested as foreign spies, but fortunately, Li Yan was clever and the two escaped.

But they didn't find Li Shu, and the two were unwilling to continue to look for it, afraid that their families would be in a hurry.

So, after some discussion, Li Yan continued on the road with the coil, and Li Mo went home first.

Hearing this, the family fell silent.

Li Xiangyu's eyes were red again, in the past few days, she was also very anxious, and finally looked forward to Li Mo, but when she got such news again, she couldn't help but be discouraged, thinking about it, crying and scolding.

"What have I done? A good home should be made like this? This is not a worry-free third child. I'm going to beat him up when I come back. It's going to be the New Year soon, he ran away and disappeared, and now, even the second child doesn't know where to go, what can we do? ”

"Auntie."

As soon as Li Xiangyu cried, Li Man's eyes were also filled with mist, and Li Hua had to persuade, "The second brother and the third brother are all adults, and they will be fine." ”

"My lord? There's a fart. The third child is so big, how many times have he been out of the courtyard? He doesn't know how thick the sky is. Think it's the same when you're away from home? There are brothers everywhere to protect me, and my daughter-in-law is in pain. Someone to cook when you're hungry or take care of someone when you're sick? ”

It's good that he didn't say this, but when he said it, it aroused the worry in Li Man's heart.

Yes, Li Yan still has silver on him.

But what about Li Shu?

She checked carefully, except for a few sets of his own clothes that he had changed with him, and a small coat that she was wearing, there was nothing, not even a bag of dry food.

Is he going out to drink the northwest wind?

"Don't cry." Li Mo suddenly said to Li Xiangyu, "The second brother inquired about a general in a neighboring province who was recruiting troops, and I wondered if the third brother would go there." ”

"Second brother is planning to go to Yunzhou?" Li Hua was surprised.

Li Mo nodded, "This is a long way to go." However, the second brother is right, and he will definitely come back before the year. ”

Li Man didn't know the location of this ancient field, she was like a frog at the bottom of a well, and she only knew that she lived in such a place called Shennugou.

But in ancient times, transportation was not developed, let alone going to another province, even if you went to another county or town, it would take a lot of time, not to mention, Li Yan only walked on one pair of legs?

This is the cold winter month, if you encounter a rainy day and the road is slippery, or there is a wind and snow......

I can't think about it, the more I think about it, the worse it gets.

Li Man was almost tormented by that endless worry.

Li Yan has some silver on him, but when he goes out, how many days can he use it? What's more, he still didn't even bring a change of clothes, and he didn't even have a thick jacket when it was cold.

What if I get sick?

Li Man remembered for no reason that the picture he had seen in the book was that some students who went to Beijing to take the exam were in a miserable situation where they were sick, poor and sick, and had no one to take care of them.

"I'll go clean up, and we'll go to Yunzhou tomorrow."

"Man'er." Li Hua hurriedly grabbed her, "Yunzhou is far away, besides, we may not be able to meet the second brother and third brother when we go, in case we miss the ...... with them again."

"But we can't just sit at home and wait." Li Man felt that if she really had to wait like this, she would go crazy and go crazy.

"Man'er, calm down first." Li Hua grabbed her hand and didn't let go, "You're gone, what about the children?" Also, the second brother said that if he could come back before the year, he would definitely come back. ”

"What about your third brother?" Li Man looked at him blankly.

Li Hua's heart was suffocated, and he sighed helplessly, "Man'er, there are some things that we must treat calmly. If the third brother is determined, even if he finds him, he may not be willing to come back. ”

"I don't care." Li Man frowned stubbornly, as if angry, and said, "If I want him back, he will definitely come back." He can't bear me, and he can't bear the children. He must blame me, blame me for not being nice enough to him. Yes, the night he left, I was still angry with him, and he must have been angry for this. When he comes back, I'll apologize to him, and in the future, I, I'll do that to him again. As long as he likes it, let me do whatever I want. ”

"Man'er." Li Mo's expression was dark, his eyes were fixed on Li Man, and he said in a deep voice, "The fourth brother is right, the third brother is old and has his own ideas. No one can complain about this. ”

But these words couldn't soothe Li Man's heart, her man, after lingering with her all night, ran away the next day, and she couldn't stand it.

She knew how much he loved her.

It was because she was confident that he loved her so deeply that she couldn't accept his sudden departure from home, and what was even more odious was that he still had to join the army and do this thing that would kill him at any time.

She was afraid, afraid that something would happen to him, afraid that she would never see him again, that she would not see his sunny smile, that she would not hear his hearty laughter, and that she would not feel his intimacy of flattering her.

She regretted it even more, regretted why she slept so dead, he hugged her and whispered in her ear, he must be saying goodbye to her, or maybe he hoped that she would wake up and be intimate with him for a while? Perhaps, he will change his mind and not leave.
