"Yuxiu, many families in the village have already come to take refuge with their relatives, and there are more and more people in the village, what can I do?" The fifth uncle's lips already have a thick layer of dry skin, and when he speaks, he will crack and bleed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, the fifth uncle couldn't take care of it at this time.

"Fifth uncle, don't worry about getting angry, things can always be solved, right?" Lin Yuxiu brought a bowl of water to the fifth uncle.

The fifth uncle looked at this big bowl of Qingling Lingling's water, but he didn't take it to drink, there was not much water in the village, even Yuxiu here is the same as other families in the village to receive water every day, if he drank it, what should Yuxiu do here?

"The people in the village have increased their time by 30% in the past few days, and if the water in our well is maintained for so many people, I am afraid that we will not even be able to use it for 20 days." There is less and less water in the well, but there are more and more people.

"We can't care about other people's relatives, but no matter how many relatives are taken in at home, the water supply cannot be increased, and it can only be distributed according to the number of the original population." Lin Yuxiu said with a cold face: "Fifth uncle, my family is full of women, and I don't go out much, and I don't use much water, so you can drink this bowl of water." ”

It's not that she's cold and cold-blooded, it's that she can't take care of so many people. After all, she was just a little far-sighted little woman, and there was no room for resistance in the face of such a severe drought. The only thing she could do was do her best to save the people in the village, and that's it!

The fifth uncle finally took the bowl of water and drank it in one gulp, he ran in and out all day long, and his thirst was faster than others, but the water at home was the same.

After drinking the water, the fifth uncle's mouth was not so dry, and then he continued: "There are already several people who have started to make trouble, saying that the little water is not enough. ”

The fifth uncle is in charge of distributing water, so these people who don't have enough water at home are coming to him. Yesterday there were only one or two people making a fuss, but today there are already four or five families looking for him, and it will not be possible to go on like this.

"Fifth uncle, you go to the patriarch and the nineteenth uncle to explain the situation. Presumably they know it. ”

Whether it's Li Zheng, Uncle Nineteen, or the patriarch, it's not like letting the people of this village die of thirst for the sake of irrelevant people from other villages, right?

"It's not that I don't go to the patriarch, the patriarch is just afraid that it won't-"

In the face of such a serious disaster, even a man who is alive and well, and he has no hope of living, let alone an old man who has been sick for many years and is about to die?

It is said that the patriarch has not touched his teeth for three days, and Dr. Chen has also gone to see it, but he just shook his head and left. Perhaps, the deadline is just around these two days, and when the time comes, what will we do?

Lin Yuxiu hasn't gone out for the past few days, because the weather outside is too dry and hot, and only by staying in the house can she feel cool, and she can also evaporate as little water as possible to save a little water. So, she didn't know about the patriarch at all.

"How so?" Hearing the news at this moment, Lin Yuxiu was shocked, and she suddenly stood up and said.

"Yuwa, it's true, if you have the heart, go over and take a look, maybe you won't see it again." The fifth uncle saw that Lin Yuxiu really didn't know, so he said this.

Lin Yuxiu nodded and didn't talk to the fifth uncle much, so she hurriedly walked towards the patriarch's house.

It's just that before she could reach the patriarch's house, she heard a heart-rending cry from the patriarch's house from a distance.

Lin Yuxiu was stunned, her feet and neck were a little weak, and she couldn't even move.

The patriarch is gone, the first person to die in the village since the great drought. It's just that I didn't expect that this first person would be the old patriarch!

Lin Yuxiu felt a little unacceptable, but what if she couldn't accept it?

Some things have already happened, and they can only be faced! There was nothing she could do.

Lin Yuxiu struggled into the patriarch's house, and when she entered the door, she looked at the white expanse.

The sounds of crying came from her ears, men, women, old, and small, high and low cries were intertwined, Lin Yuxiu felt that everything in front of her seemed to be far away from her life, and her brain buzzed a lot bigger and more wooden.

Although the old patriarch had never helped her life as much as Uncle Nineteen, he had not been completely ignorant of her. In the past few years, she has helped her openly and secretly.

In Lin Yuxiu's heart, the old patriarch is also a kind old man, and Lin Yuxiu, who has no relatives, cherishes everyone who has helped her.

However, now the old patriarch went so abruptly that he didn't even see the last one.

Lin Yuxiu felt remorseful in her heart, why did she hide in the house and in the space all day long? If you can worry a little more, at least you can see the old patriarch for the last time, and at least you can know what else he can't worry about in the end.

Lin Yuxiu felt sour in her heart, and it seemed that there were a lot of astringent tears pouring into her heart, but her eyes were getting drier and drier, so dry that she couldn't even shed a single tear.

"Yuxiu, are you here?" Lin Fagui, the eldest son of the old patriarch, didn't know when he came over.

"Little Seventh Grandpa, ...... you mourn" Lin Yuxiu suddenly felt that it was idle to say anything at the moment, and it seemed that all languages were so pale and weak.

Lin Fagui, the eldest son of the old patriarch, is ranked seventeenth among the generation in the village, and the people in the village are used to calling him Uncle Xiaoqi or Grandpa Xiaoqi.

He is not young anymore, he is already fifty-three years old this year, and his originally tough body looks extremely old under the double blow of natural disasters and man-made disasters.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, in the end, your grandfather is also in his seventies, and there is a way that humanity is rare for seventy years, and it can be regarded as a long life." Like Lin Yuxiu, there was not a single tear in his eyes.

In the face of such a calamity, it may be better to die than to live, at least without suffering.

Lin Yuxiu nodded slowly, and then said: "In this situation, we can't even do a decent funeral for the patriarch......

People in the countryside pay attention to this, but in this situation, Lin Yuxiu knows that there is no way to give the patriarch the last mourning. Even if she is not short of money, she can't do it big, the conditions are too poor.

"I know, your grandfather also knows it, so he said that the funeral is simple and doesn't need to be bothered. Don't waste food and water for his funeral, or she won't be able to die. However, he has a word for me to say to you. Thinking of his father's words as he was leaving, his face was lifeless.

Dad has been for these people of the Lin family all his life, and when he is dying, he is still for the people of the Lin family. Is it really meaningful for Dad to spend his whole life thinking about it? (To be continued.) )
