273 Her assurance

Lin Fagui looked at Lin Yuxiu with suspicion, is it a bit heavy for his father to hand over such a heavy burden to Yuxiu, a doll of Lin Fagui's age? Can this immature-looking little girl in front of her really take on such a responsibility?

Lin Yuxiu was stunned, what did she say to herself? What are the words? The last words, were they actually left for her?

She then asked, "What did Grandpa say?" ”

He said he would make you promise him to save as much as possible anyone in the village. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Don't let the people in the village, don't let the people of the Lin family starve to death and die of thirst. ”

Lin Yuxiu never thought that the patriarch would leave her such a sentence.

How is this possible? She didn't know when the sudden drought would pass, and how could she keep the people in the village safe?

In addition, I don't know what the people in the village think, can they listen to their little girl's words, how can she be saved?

What's more, relief for the victims should have been the business of the imperial court, as ordinary people, even if they have great ability, what role can they play?

However, there is a rare drought in the whole country, and the imperial court is now afraid that it is too busy to take care of itself, how can it have time to worry about the people in such a remote small mountain village?

Human life is the most despised at such a time, perhaps inferior to the ants in the field.

"Yuxiu, I know this is embarrassing for you, but my father said that he is not at ease to hand it over to others, he believes that only you can do it." When he said this, Lin Fagui felt a little embarrassed.

"Okay, I promise Grandpa that no one in our village will die of thirst and starvation." After Lin Yuxiu was stunned for a long time, she suddenly spoke.

What she said carried a lot of weight, and she knew that since she had agreed today, she must do it, and she must do it to the letter.

"It's just that I also have a condition, please Grandpa Xiaoqi, you can agree." Lin Yuxiu opened her mouth and said that she still had conditions.

Lin Fagui's heart that was originally relieved was raised again after Lin Yuxiu suddenly said this, and he didn't know what the doll was going to say.

"These words, please don't tell Grandpa Xiaoqi to anyone else in the village, even Grandpa Nineteen can't say it, can you agree?" Lin Yuxiu's eyes stared at the person in front of her.

Although the person in front of him didn't know why Lin Yuxiu wanted to say such a condition, he looked at her with some confusion.

"If everyone in the village knew this, I am afraid that I would not be able to help. People always have to save themselves first and then wait for others to help them. If you know early on that someone else will help you, these people will lose the idea of helping themselves. Grandpa Xiaoqi can also see that there are so many people in the village, I only have one person, even if there is a way, it is limited in the end, if everyone is just waiting for me to save it, how many people do you think I can help? Although I have made some achievements in the past few years, it is not enough for me to feed all the people in the village at such a time. Lin Yuxiu said everything in her heart.

Lin Fagui had to agree with Lin Yuxiu's words, what this kid said was very reasonable, in fact, it was like this. No wonder his father wanted to say this to himself alone, perhaps, his old man knew that there would be such a problem early on, and he should also agree with what Yuxiu said. And Yuxiu's promise was the last straw left by her father to the people in the village.

"Well, I promise you! No third person will know this except you and me. Lin Fagui solemnly assured.

"Okay, Grandpa Xiaoqi, I also promise, as long as the people in the village really can't survive, I will find a way, but until I can maintain my livelihood, I will not interfere."

After the words of the two of them were finished, Lin Yuxiu stepped forward to kowtow to the old patriarch, and swore in his heart that he would not let anyone in the village die of thirst and starve to death in accordance with the old patriarch's last wishes.

But that's all she can do, she can't do anything else with limited ability, and she can't save those who really want to die by herself!

Qiao's family also came, and after she gave incense to the old patriarch, Lin Yuxiu helped her go back.

The two walked very slowly along the way, and the Qiao family never thought that the patriarch would suddenly die like this, but in fact, it was expected, the patriarch had been sick for many years, and it was not easy to survive until now.

"In this life, if you say it's gone, it's gone!" Qiao Shi said with emotion: "If it weren't for this great drought, maybe the old patriarch would have lived for two more years." ”

The old patriarch was a person who had been kind to people all his life, but unfortunately he was also a person who had been sick for half his life.

"Perhaps, for the old patriarch, it is also a relief to go now." Lin Yuxiu said softly.

In the face of such a disaster, the living are the most pitiful, and the dead don't have to think about that much.

As the patriarch, there are so many people from the Lin family in the village, how can he not worry? However, how can he worry about a body like his? If he was alive, he would have worked hard for the people in the village, no, the old patriarch had already exhausted the last drop of his heart and blood for the people in the village.

Three days later, the old patriarch was hurriedly buried, and the simplest ceremony sent away the old man, who had been a patriarch for more than 30 years.

On the same day, Lin Fagui became the new patriarch of the Lin family.

At such a time, all the ceremonies are wasted, so Lin Fagui's succession ceremony is simply to let everyone in the clan come to the meeting to inform him.

Those luxuries that were only available in the past were not thought of at this time, and no one had this experience, and all the rituals were wasted.

The death of the old patriarch made the troublemakers in the village stop for two days, but the problem was not solved for a day, and it still broke out after all.

On the first day Lin Fagui became the new patriarch, he faced this problem.

"There are more than a dozen people in my family now, and I can give a bucket of water a day, what is enough?" The village's ruined settlers shouted.

There were originally only seven people in her family, but a few days ago, her mother's father and sister-in-law came with three children, and half of them were suddenly overstretched, and the bucket of water, which was already stretched, was completely insufficient.

For this problem, the family has made a lot of trouble, and her mother-in-law has solemnly told her that if she can't get water by herself, she will let her mother's family leave.

No matter how broken Ma is, she always has a filial piety, she knows that if she drives away her father and mother at this time, then they will only have a dead end, and Ma does not want to see this situation. So she can only go this step today.

In the case of contacting others without results, Ma can only choose to make trouble with the fifth uncle by himself. (To be continued.) )
