Chapter 45: Someone Died
Master Li sighed and said, "Okay, when your house is built next year, I will live with you." ”
Also, he is getting older, it's time to think about the next things, it's a big deal to wait for Brother Jiang to find a daughter-in-law, he will build a house in Yijia Village and settle down.
Anyway, he will leave these things to Brother Jiang in the future.
"yes." Gu Yao jumped up happily, perfectly interpreting a happy child.
Master Li and Yi Jiang looked at Gu Yao who was running around in the courtyard, glanced at each other, and laughed.
On the night of the twenty-eighth day of the Lunar New Year, it snowed heavily in the sky all night, and it was estimated that when a person stepped down, it reached his knees.
When she got up early in the morning, Gu Yao leaned on the window, looked at the snowy appearance outside, and smiled, so beautiful!
"Yao'er, Daddy went to shovel the snow at the door, be careful, don't freeze." Yi Jiang took the shovel and said to Gu Yao.
The snow on the road was so thick that the village chief had a meeting yesterday at noon and said that if the snow fell heavily tomorrow, everyone would work hard to clear the snow near their homes.
At the very least, we need to clear a street that is easy for everyone to walk on.
Gu Yao stretched out his hand that was placed outside the window, smiled at Yi Jiang and said, "Got it, Daddy." ”
When Yi Jiang went out, he happened to meet Yi Dahai who came out of the main house, holding a shovel in his hand like him, and it seemed that he was also shoveling snow.
Yi Jiang frowned when he thought of such a cold day, and then said, "Dad, I'll shovel the snow at the door, you can go and rest." ”
"No need, the two of them are moving a little faster." Yi Dahai rubbed his cold hands, said to Yi Jiang, and then walked to the door in three or two steps and began to shovel snow.
Seeing this, Yi Jiang didn't say anything anymore.
Gu Yao saw this scene at the door, raised her eyebrows, and didn't feel anything.
Although the family is separated, it is also appropriate for the son to care about his father, although this father is very useless.
Looking in the direction of the Yi family's main house, just in time to see the Yi Zhou clan spitting in the direction of Yi Jiang, Gu Yao was suddenly a little speechless.
Is there something wrong with this man?
It's really ...... to see such a disgusting thing early in the morning.
Obviously, Yi Zhou's also saw Gu Yao, glared at her fiercely, and then turned around and went to the kitchen, ready to urge Yi Wang's to make breakfast.
As for the rest of the Yi family, they haven't gotten up yet.
Gu Yao rolled her eyes in the direction of the Yi family's main house at the window, then sat back on the kang and picked up the quilt to wrap herself tightly.
Since the beginning of winter, her ability has not been promoted at all, Gu Yao guessed that it should be because of the decrease in green plants on the mountain!
But it doesn't matter, just wait until the beginning of spring next year.
Gu Yao's face rubbed against the quilt, then closed her eyes and began to sleep, well, it's still early, she can sleep for a while.
At the door, Yi Jiang and Yi Dahai began to clear the snow, but fortunately, the snow was fluffy, but there were too many shovels and some couldn't shovel up.
The villagers of Yijia Village all got up very early, and one or two people from each family came out to shovel snow, and they greeted each other when they saw each other.
"Hello everyone, it was so big under the snow yesterday! It froze me enough in the middle of the night. ”
"No, it all crushed the roof of my house, but fortunately there wasn't anything in there."
"It turns out that yesterday's noise was from your house, and it scared me at the time."
"Don't talk about you, I'm scared enough."
"Brother Jiang, was your family okay yesterday?"
"It's okay, it's okay."
......
At the village chief's house at this time, Village Chief Yi looked at his eldest son who came back from outside, and hurriedly asked, "How is it?" Are you all right? ”
In fact, since the heavy snow last night, Village Chief Yi has been worried, worried that something bad will happen in the village under such heavy snowfall.
No, as soon as the morning dawned, he sent his two sons out to inquire about the situation in the village, if it weren't for his bad legs, he probably went out himself.
As soon as Yi Dashan came back, he first drank the hot water handed over by his daughter-in-law and Yi Cheng's, and then took a breath and said, "Dad, there is nothing else, but the abandoned house over there has collapsed." ”
Speaking of this, Yi Dashan stopped talking, and the expression on his face was a little bad.
Noticing his son's strange expression, Village Chief Yi had a bad premonition in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"I found a torn garment at the door, and when I got inside, I found three bodies inside."
"It's all frozen, I took a cursory look, it's three men, look at the faces, it's not from our village, it should be that the house collapsed, crushed them, and then froze to death."
"But I saw that they were dressed like beggars, and their clothes were all torn, and I was startled, and after a little look, I came back first." When he said this, Yi Dashan was a little scared in his heart.
God knows that when he saw three corpses lying there motionless and with snow on them, he was so frightened that his soul almost died.
Thankfully, he held on, but speaking of which, his legs were a little weak now.
Village Chief Yi's face sank, and then he said to Yi Dashan: "You go find a few people, and we will go and dispose of the three corpses first." ”
"This, Daddy, don't you report to the official?" Yi Dashan asked a little tangled.
Village Chief Yi glanced at him and said, "Of course, I have to report to the official, and everyone has died." ”
"Then what do you say about it?"
"Shouldn't they be brought out?" Village Chief Yi glared, Yi Dashan instantly shrunk his neck, coaxed, turned around and went out to do errands.
Yi Cheng and Yi Wang glanced at each other, and then Yi Wang said, "You say, how could these three people appear in our village!" ”
"Who knows!" Village Chief Yi frowned, it had snowed so heavily in the past two days, his legs and feet were not good, and he didn't walk around the village much, who knows when there will be three more outsiders in the village!
It's all wrong, it's really unlucky.
It's not easy to be the head of this village!
"Dad, I'm back."
Yi Dachuan gasped and walked back from outside, looking at Yi Wang's heart, he hurriedly handed over the hot water, "Dachuan, drink some water first." ”
"Hey." Yi Dachuan drank the water, heated it for a while, and then said to Village Chief Yi: "Dad, I'm fine over there, everything is normal." ”
Then he looked around and said suspiciously, "Where is my brother, he hasn't come back yet?" "No, isn't he closer.
"Your brother came back and went out again, you go to find Brother Jiang, just tell him, let him go to the county government to report to the official, and say that three bodies have been found in our village."
"What? There are corpses? Before Village Chief Yi could speak, Yi Dachuan became excited and asked, "How can there be corpses in a good village!" ”
Village Chief Yi glared at the impatient little son and said, "What's the hurry, I haven't finished my words yet." ”
"Hehe, Dad, you say, you say." Yi Dachuan shrunk his neck, smiled and said, what is it, isn't he just curious.
"Those three people are not from our village, and I don't know where they came from, but yesterday it snowed heavily, which crushed the abandoned houses in the east and froze them to death."
Village Chief Yi, who came to his senses from the initial surprise, said to Yi Dachuan in a light tone: "Okay, don't talk either, go to Brother Jiang first, and let him go directly to the county office." ”
"I see, Dad." Yi Dachuan arrived, then took another sip of the hot water handed over by Yi Wang, and walked out.
Yi Wang sighed and said, "What's the matter! ”
"Who knows!" Village Chief Yi took a sip of hot water and said.
Yi Dashan went out to find a few families in the vicinity, and found 5 people, because they were all nearby, so not long after Yi Dachuan went, they came back.
"Dad, we're back."
As soon as the five people entered the door, they said to Village Chief Yi:
"Village Chief, what's going on!"
"That's right, Dashan didn't say anything when I came here just now."
"Yes, yes, yes."
"It's a cold day, it's over early, I'm so dodging from the kang!"
......
Village Chief Yi asked the five people to sit down first, and then said to the five people: "That's the case, it didn't snow so hard yesterday, I'm afraid that something will happen in the village." ”
After hearing this, the five people nodded, En, Village Chief Yi is really a good village chief, and he cares about them so much.
Village Chief Yi said while observing the expressions of the five people, and then said: "In the morning, I let Dashan and Dachuan take a look inside the village, no, there will be a problem." ”
As soon as these words came out, the five people were immediately dumbfounded.
"Ah, what's wrong?"
"Village Chief, is it serious? What a thing! ”
"Village chief, what's going on!"
......
Village Chief Yi pressed his hand towards a few people, and said in a dull voice, "You all know that there is an abandoned house in the east. ”
"Yes, yes." 5 people nodded or answered.
Yi Dashan and Yi Cheng poured a cup of hot water for everyone, and then Village Chief Yi said: "It's the accident there, yesterday's heavy snow crushed the house." ”
5 When people heard that the house had collapsed, their hearts were immediately relieved, and they said with a smile:
"Oh, that's it."
"I thought it was a big deal, it collapsed, it collapsed, and no one lived in it anyway."
"That's it, that's it."
......
Village Chief Yi sighed heavily and said, "If it's just that the house has collapsed, why should I let you come!" ”
Those 5 people, you look at me, I look at you, and suddenly there was a bad premonition in my heart, so one of them took the lead and asked: "Village chief, what is going on!" ”
"Dashan came back and said that the house had collapsed, but inside, there were three people who had fallen there, and their bodies were stiff." Village Chief Yi said.
In this winter, the meaning of the stiff body is self-evident.
The five people swallowed their saliva and said with a difficult face:
"This, this is."
"Dead?! Why are they dead? ”
"Isn't that house all abandoned, how can anyone still live there!"
"Village chief, then you called us here."
......
Village Chief Yi said: "As for me, I have already asked Brother Jiang to go to the county government to report the case, as for looking for you, it is to get the three corpses out." ”
