Chapter 50: Arriving Home
Wu Qingzhu walked on the road of the village, and he didn't see an acquaintance along the way, and he didn't see the person he wanted to see after he arrived at home, scratching his head, there were still dishes in the house that hadn't been washed in the morning, where could he go at this time?
Looking at the ears of wheat piled up in the yard, I realized that it was the season to harvest wheat.
After thinking about the fact that there should be food in the pot at this time, I rubbed my stomach, which had not eaten since the morning, put the package in the house, and wanted to go to the kitchen to find something to eat.
As soon as I walked out of the hall, I heard the sound of the door opening, vaguely accompanied by the familiar sound of talking and greeting.
"Is this door wide open? Leaving the house unlocked in the morning? "You can hear it by listening to the voice, this is what Wu's mother said.
Wu Qingquan scratched his head, the latest he left in the morning, and it was also the door he locked, and he remembered that the door was locked very clearly: "No, I locked it!" ”
After finishing speaking, he also looked into the courtyard in wonder, and at this moment, he looked at Wu Qingzhu in the courtyard.
"Big brother! Mother, it's the eldest brother who is back. ”
Mother Wu also hurriedly rushed to her when she heard what her son said, and when she saw that the person she had been thinking about really appeared in front of her, she was quite a little tearful.
Helan, who was following behind with her head down, raised her head when she heard this title, and looked forward, and her eyes were red when she looked at it.
On the mountain, Helan saw that Wu's father came up to pick them up, and when he saw Wu's father coming up to pick them up, he finally let go, and he didn't see Wu Qingzhu coming at that time, and he thought he was waiting at the bottom of the mountain, but he didn't know that he didn't come back at all.
At that time, Helan had a little disappointment on his face that he didn't know, and turned his head to look at the bottom of the mountain, hoping that he had heard it wrong, Wu Qingzhu just walked slowly, so he didn't come.
Helan doesn't know why, she always has a sense of dependence on Wu Qingzhu, and this sense of dependence makes him miss Wu Qingzhu very much, no matter where he is, he will think about it.
Ever since I had that bad dream, I haven't let go of my heart, and I've been scaring myself every day, fantasizing about this kind of scene.
Seeing this man who makes me remember again at this moment, I have an indescribable feeling in my heart.
Qingmei, who came back a lot later from the back, was a little puzzled when she saw that her family was standing at the gate, and walked forward and said, "Do you want to enter the house?" I'm tired from this morning, so hurry back and rest. ”
When I arrived at the door, I saw my brother standing in the courtyard, I was really overjoyed, and quickly moved the things in my hand into the house and said, "Big brother, you are back, we are all worried about death." ”
Qingmei's words woke everyone up, and after coming back to her senses, she hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Wu Qingzhu to ask if she was injured, or how she was spending this time.
Wu Qingzhu also replied to his recent life one by one, but most of them picked out better things and told them.
"I'm thin, and I'm dark." Wu's mother wore a sweat towel tied to her head, and her calloused hands kept groping her son's face.
"The black spot is fine, it'll be good to raise it after a while."
Wu Qingzhu chatted with his mother, and glanced at Helan from time to time.
Helan didn't interject from the beginning, and could only sit and listen to them talk about things they hadn't experienced.
A few people didn't enter the house at this time, but just sat in the courtyard and chatted.
Now that the person has returned safely, the hearts of the family members have also been relaxed. Seeing that everything is fine, they pick up some interesting things and tell each other.
Just as she was talking, Mother Wu suddenly wiped away her tears. Even if the son and husband don't say it, how can they not know that there are many dangers in the city? He had heard from others that there were a lot of dead people in the city, and there were corpses walking all over the ground, and normal people wanted to vomit when they saw it, let alone those who wanted to save their lives.
Seeing the injury on her husband's shoulder, I was really distressed, I don't know how many tears I wiped, I didn't see my son, no matter how many things others said, I couldn't let go of my worries.
"Mother, don't cry, isn't my son back well? You see, I really didn't suffer anything. ”
"It's not like your mother hasn't seen the world, how can that kind of scene be good, I'm fine, my mother will go and eat for you now, put more meat." Wu's mother didn't say much, she stood up and walked to the kitchen, but Wu Qingzhu didn't pull it.
"Leave your mother alone, keep her busy, and it'll be fine for a while." Father Wu looked at his daughter-in-law's back and stood up to be busy with his own affairs.
Grandpa Wu stood aside, first looked at his grandson who kept looking at Helan, then looked at Helan's shy expression from time to time, and then looked at his grandson who wanted to go up and let his brother continue to chat with him.
Grandpa Wu, who was very eye-catching, opened his mouth: "Your eldest brother just came back at this time, and his body is tired and tight, so let him go back to the room to rest first, Helan, you go to bring some hot water to wash him, his body is stinky." ”
After speaking, Grandpa Wu also fanned his nose with his hand.
"I cleaned by the river yesterday, why does it still stink?"
As soon as Grandpa Wu said this, Wu Qingquan, who didn't take a bath much and didn't dislike himself, also smelled the smell coming from his brother's body, and quickly pinched his nose.
"Brother, it really stinks! You better hurry up and wash it with the soap made by your sister-in-law, if you don't wash it quickly, you can stinky people can't eat. ”
was said by his relatives, Wu Qingzhu, who had never changed his face, also blushed, and hurriedly stood up and walked to his room.
Since grandpa opened his mouth, Helan also went to the kitchen to get a short hot water with Grandpa Wu's words.
The first thing Wu Qingzhu did when he returned to the house was to change his clothes, and after thinking about it, he would have to change his clothes after taking a shower later, which was very troublesome.
After looking at the clean bed, he didn't dare to sit on it, so he could only move a bench and sit on the side.
Wu Qingzhu was in a daze when Helan came in, and when he reacted, he looked in the direction of Helan and found that Helan had kept his head down, still some distance from himself, and this behavior inexplicably made him feel a little distance.
"You wash first, you call me after washing, and I'll change the water for you." Helan first hung a windshield curtain sewn from rags in a corner of the house, put the basin and other things away, and went to the bed to wait.
Wu Qingzhu looked at Helan at this time and wanted to hug him for a while, but his younger brother said that he was very smelly and the words kept spinning in his ears, and he was afraid that Helan would dislike him, so he could only suppress his thoughts and go to take a bath first.
Wu Qingzhu washed half of it and found a more serious problem, the water was already very turbid, but the body had not been washed yet.
"Lady, there's too little water, I'm ...... It's a bit unclean. ”
Helan was stunned for a moment, and then spoke: "Then I'll go get more water." ”
"I may need a lot." Wu Qingzhu handed out the basin and towel inside as he spoke.
Helan stared blankly at the pot that had been stained with a layer of soil for a long time without reacting.
When Wu's mother saw this basin of water, she couldn't help laughing: "Just after the water is boiling, I'll ask your father to carry it for him and let him wash it slowly in the bathtub." ”
Helan went to call Father Wu in a daze, and then he was still in a daze, he really couldn't figure out what a person did, and the water that came out of the wash could be so dirty.
After Wu's father put the bucket and hot water away, he asked Helan to wait in the house, saying that if Brother Zhu had anything to help, he had to let his daughter-in-law wait.
After Wu Qingzhu took a bath, he was really refreshed, and looking at the clothes next to him, he really didn't want to touch it again.
"Lady, are you outside?"
"Yes."
Wu Qingzhu was inexplicably a little happy when he heard the answer, so he spoke again: "The clothes in my package on the table, can you help me hand them over?" ”
"Oh, here it is." Helan didn't think much about it, and since she helped, she followed Wu Qingzhu's words to open the package.
I didn't know that when I opened the knot, a mixed smell in the package immediately rushed out, and it was really two seconds.
Helan hurriedly held her breath, and her hands that touched the package felt very disgusted.
"Wait a minute, I'll go get it for you in the cupboard."
Wu Qingzhu was quite puzzled, weren't his clothes in the house? Why do you still need to go outside to get it?
After Helan handed the clothes in, Wu Qingzhu opened his mouth and put on his clothes: "Aren't the clothes outside?" ”
"Yes, that's that?" Helan hesitated for a long time and was embarrassed to speak.
Wu Qingzhu looked at Helan and instantly understood something, his body was already so stinky, and it was estimated that his clothes were not much better, and he immediately blushed shyly, which was really embarrassing.
