As soon as you get out of the city, it is like a bird out of the cage and into the sea, and from then on, the sky is high and the bird flies into the sea and jumps with the fish. The people who went out of the city together quickened their pace, the drivers threw their whips, and the carts also increased their arm and foot strength, and they all rushed to go faster, stay away, and go home. At every fork in the road, there are always some people who will diverge and walk, and there are far fewer pedestrians on the road.

Lu Xiaoyi raised the curtain of the car high, and the spring breeze came with the spring cold, which shocked people's spirits, and they felt that the whole body and mind were comfortable, and the air outside the city became fresh and sweet.

Magnolia said: "Open the curtain!" Looking at the scenery outside, my heart is also more comfortable. Lu Xiaoyi nodded, hung up the curtain and snuggled to the side to look at the scenery outside.

In front of him was Zhang Tieniu's tall figure, I saw that he was driving the car slowly, the horse pulling the car was very obedient, snorting happily and happily, and the horse's tail was also flipped briskly and stretched.

Lu Zhong drove up, parallel to Zhang Tieniu, and talked about last night's incident.

Zhang Tieniu raised two fingers on his left hand and said vaguely: "I heard that I lost this number last night, so I won't talk about the injured." ”

Although they had been prepared in their hearts, Lu Zhong and the others were still frightened.

Lu Xiaoyi had been in a trance last night because of Xiao Ding's disappearance, and he had no specific concept of the injured and dead scattered on the street, but he felt that there were people everywhere.

More than 20 fresh lives died tragically in the panicked crowd, these people just finished the New Year, originally full of happiness to see the Lantern Festival, who wants to be prosperous but died here, it is really the most tragic thing in the world!

Lu Xiaoyi glanced back at Xiao Ding. I saw her snuggling up to Magnolia obediently, and Xiao Geng snuggling up to her obediently, a warm and touching picture. Who would have thought that the wheel of fate turned a little last night, and the picture at this moment would no longer exist, if Xiao Ding had a mistake, Yulan would be grief-stricken, once the tire gas was moved, there would be a danger of two lives, Lu Xiaoyi didn't dare to think about the worst case at all, because that meant that all the happiness and warmth in front of him would be shattered.

Lu Xiaoyi silently leaned on the carriage. In the palm of his hand, he still holds the little snail just now. The little guy hides in the shell, hiding in the shell that he thinks is very safe, but he doesn't know how vulnerable such a shell is in the eyes of human beings, just like the happy little family in front of him. In the face of natural and man-made disasters. It is also as fragile as a snail shell.

The more Lu Xiaoyi thought about it, the more pessimistic he became. She secretly glanced at the surplus grain on the donkey cart next to her, and suddenly felt a sense of fear of loss, wondering if her little happiness could last long. I don't know if the person in front of me can live a life with me, and I silently pray in my heart that my life is not rich and rich, but I just want to be safe.

Lu Zhong thought of the tragic scene last night, and couldn't help but sigh: "Hey! I don't know who did something immoral and killed so many people. ”

Zhang Tieniu looked around and whispered: "Some people say that it was planned by the Mongolian people, with the intention of provoking disputes between the two countries, some people say that it is the traitor of our Lu country, and it is intended to seek a series of positions, and there are more exaggerated claims, which sound unreliable, who knows what the specific situation is!" How can we, the common people, manage this, as long as we don't fight, thank God. ”

Lu Zhong nodded, "Those who are officials should be good officials, we will plant good land, and you will open a good shop for business, and the world will be peaceful." ”

Zhang Tieniu laughed, "That being said, it's hard to do!" Where there are people, there is no peace. ”

Lu Xiaoyi listened and thought all the way, occasionally glanced at the surplus grain, and unconsciously, Xiaxi Village was close in front of him, this feeling of returning to his hometown and returning to the countryside was so good!

The birds love the old forest, the pond fish thinks about the old place, and this is the feeling of missing it!

When Lu Xiaoyi saw the familiar village, all kinds of melancholy and slumps on the carriage just now disappeared, and his whole body and mind became happy.

Seeing a lot of people standing at the entrance of the village from a distance, Lu Xiaoyi had a gut feeling that something was wrong, and when the carriage approached, the villagers all surrounded him, all asking about the stampede at the lantern festival.

It turned out that not only their family in the village went to the city to watch the Lantern Festival, but there were also several other families, fortunately they didn't have an accident, and they rushed back early to bring back the news that the Lantern Festival trampled on the dead. As soon as the news spread, some people cried, some rejoiced, and some ran to tell each other to pass on the information. As a result, the whole village soon knew which families had relatives to see the lantern festival, which ones came back, and which ones did not.

The worst cry is Mrs. Lu, there are two old people and a left-behind child left in her family, two sons and two daughters-in-law plus grandchildren all went to see the lantern festival. Lu Shouzeng almost fainted after learning the news, but no news is the best news, and he can still stabilize his position. The Lu family's big house also came, and Mrs. Lu brought all her children and grandchildren over, and after asking about the situation, she only said 'wait'. So, the family waited from the hall to the courtyard, and from the courtyard to the village road, and finally waited at the entrance of the village. The villagers also gathered at the entrance of the village, comforting the Lu family while watching the way into the village.

So there was the scene of being surrounded by villagers just now.

Lu Zhong and Lu Yong's family were able to return safely, and the villagers applauded and celebrated.

Mrs. Lu's eyes were already swollen from crying, she pounced on the crowd, and said in a hoarse voice: "My son, my grandson!" You want my life! ”

Lu Zhong and Lu Yong hurriedly came over to support Mrs. Lu, and Lu Xiaoyi also hurriedly helped Xiao Geng out of the carriage, "Grandmother, your grandson is here!" ”

Mrs. Lu shook off her two sons who were supporting her, staggered over, hugged Xiao Geng and kissed and cried, obviously overly frightened.

Lu Xiaoyi looked around and found that all the people who could walk in the village came, and there was a sense of déjà vu watching the lantern festival in the dark, and he couldn't help but be shocked and stunned by this kind of crowded occasion.

Thinking that the villagers were also kind, Lu Xiaoyi's heart rose again, her eyes were sharp, and she saw that Shen Qiang and Liu Bao were crying and their eyes were red, she must have thought that she was trampled to death. The magpie spring flower girl is all there, seeing that Sister Xiao Yi and the two returned safely, they turned from sadness to joy, and stepped forward to pull them to jump with a smile.

Xiao Jiluo also pounced, hugged Xiao Ding and cried: "They said that the cousins were trampled to death, woo woo~ I don't believe it, the lobby sister obviously said that she was an oil thief, and she couldn't step on it to death." ”

The oil thief is Xiaoqiang.

The corners of Lu Xiaoyi's mouth twitched, did she say this? I don't remember.

Xiao Ding coaxed a few words, and Ji Luo stopped crying.

Look at Lu Bingyu and Lu Wufeng again, after all, they are young men, although their eyes are red, but their emotions can be restrained, Lu Jiawei hid behind her mother, she used to cover her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, but this time she even covered her eyes, and she was red when she thought about it.

Lu Xiaoyi looked at the surrounding neighbors and family members, and had a warm feeling, although they were noisy and crooked on weekdays, if they really had to encounter a big event, the good side of the villagers' hearts immediately appeared, whether it was true or hypocritical, whether it was sincere comfort or schadenfreude, at least the vast majority of people were kind, they would be worried about the Lu family's accident, and they would be happy for the safety of the Lu family.

At this time, the villagers surrounded Lu Zhong and Lu Yong to ask about the specific situation of the lantern fair, although they had already learned what had happened from the villagers who came back first, they still wanted to ask for more information from Lu Zhong, who came back later.

Mrs. Lu was supported by Mrs. Lu and stepped forward, Lu Zhong and Lu Yong hurriedly took the family to salute Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lu waved her hand and said: "It's good to come back safely, don't stand at the entrance of the village, go back!" After speaking, he took the lead and turned around and walked back slowly.

Lu Fuzeng arched his hand to the surrounding neighbors and said: "Fellow villagers, everyone has heard about the Lantern Festival last night, not to mention the danger, my nephews and nephews are very fortunate to be able to come back safely, and they must be terrified in their hearts, it is better to wait for them to settle down, calm down and then talk to everyone." ”

Lu Shouzeng also hurriedly thanked him, "I have to worry about the villagers, and when my children and grandchildren have eased up, I will talk to the villagers." ”

The villagers have already found out more news from Lu Zhong's mouth, such as the large number of people going out of the city, strict checks, increased inspections, etc., so the villagers who are good at divergent thinking have begun to talk nonsense again, talking and dispersing.

Lu Zhong turned around and led the donkey cart, Zhang Tieniu led the carriage, and went home with everyone.

Zhang Tieniu sent the Lu family to the family, parked the carriage outside the Lu family's courtyard, and went to Shangxi Village with Yu Liang, he thought that the Lu family was too inconvenient, so it was better to go to Yu Liang's house and wait until the afternoon to come directly to replenish the goods. Lu Zhong knew that Zhang Tieniu was temperamental, and he didn't force him.

Mrs. Lu has been holding Xiao Geng and not letting go, returning to her yard, only to put down Xiao Geng and start scolding, yesterday's worries after the children and grandchildren left, the horror after learning the news this morning, and the fear of the safe return of the children and grandchildren at this time, all turned into a crying insult.

Lu Shouzeng said: "The children and grandchildren are back, let's scold a few words." ”

Lu Xiaoyi heard that her grandfather was much kinder to Mrs. Lu, and she thought that she would complain about them going to see the Lantern Festival.

Mrs. Lu shouted hoarsely: "It's because I'm back that I'm going to scold me hard, if I can't come back, who will I scold him?" The son doesn't have a head, and the daughter-in-law is also a stupid, all she wants to see the excitement, she wants to covet the joy in those eyes, and now it's okay, and she was almost trampled to death! I'm still relieved if I'm really going to step on it, and I don't have to worry about it, I see you idiots angry every day! ”

Everyone was silent, last night's thrilling scene was experienced by themselves except for Yulan, and they felt more comfortable when they heard Mrs. Lu scolding a few words.

Mrs. Lu was tired of scolding, sat down and gasped, Xiaofeng was placed in the cradle beside her, Mrs. Lu could still take the time to shake it, and then stood up and pointed at Lu Zhong and scolded: "I know that something happened, why don't you rush back early in the morning, and you have to delay and return now?" Those who left at noon yesterday only came back at noon today, leaving the elderly and children at home, just caring about themselves being happy outside, and they are not afraid of being poked in the backbone when they say it! ”

Lu Zhong explained: "Mother, I was originally going to rush back early in the morning, but because of the large number of people going out of the city, there was a long queue at the city gate, and the strict inspection of the officers and soldiers guarding the city delayed for a long time!" ”

"Phew! Don't fool me with that! What happened to the people in the village who came back first? Could it be that someone else has eight legs and two wings? Can anything get ahead of you? ”

As for the reason for coming back late, Lu Zhong couldn't tell Mrs. Lu, so he had to smile and say: "Mother, I know that I am wrong, this time I did not think about it, which made you and my father worried, I promise not to do this in the future." ”

Lu Shouzeng waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's say a few words, the children and grandchildren are hungry, you hurry up and cook, and the eldest family will stay and eat together!" ”

Mrs. Lu snorted: "They came back happily, but instead let me cook for a frightened old man, I don't do it!" ”

Wang Dongmei and Yulan hurriedly stepped forward to express their attitude, Lu Xiaoyi grabbed her mother, cook, she just went. (To be continued.) )
