Chapter 9: Daddy is Dead
This morning, she was about to send the porridge to Ye Zhiheng, but when she walked to the door and raised her hand to push it, she didn't push it open, and then there was a sound of "rustling".
"Squeak", the door was opened from the inside, and Ye Zhiheng's tall back walked towards the bed.
Qiu Bai was very surprised, "You're healed!" ”
Ye Zhiheng ignored Qiu Bai's words, he leaned on the head of the bed and raised his slender hand and waved at her, like chasing flies.
Only then did Qiubai find out that Ye Zhiheng turned out to be a super handsome guy!!
Why did he get along for so many days before he found out, it was because Ye Zhiheng's face was full of blood before, and he couldn't see his facial features clearly, but now he was able to go down to the ground and cleaned up the blood stains on his face by himself, which revealed the true face of Lushan.
Qiu Bai was slightly fascinated by Ye Zhiheng's beauty for a while, and didn't react until the other party snorted coldly, "Huh? Oh. You rest, I'm out......" After saying that, he hurried out of the room.
Seven or eight days later, the seeds in the backyard sprouted, and Qiubai told Qiuling, "Don't water the dung anymore, wait until the vegetables grow up before watering, otherwise they will all be burned to death." ”
Qiu Ling looked at the little sprouts and was very happy, "Well, I know." ”
On this day, Qiubai brought dinner to Ye Zhiheng, raised his hand and pushed it, and the door that had been locked was pushed open.
"Huh?" Qiubai was a little strange, the door was not locked.
She pushed the door and walked in, but there was no one on the bed and the futon was opened.
She looked around the house and didn't see Ye Zhiheng's figure, "Hey! What about people? No one answered her.
She turned and walked out of the room towards the backyard, shouting as she went, "Hey! Are you squatting in a pit? If you don't speak, I'll come over! "Still no one answered, and the back door was bolted from the inside, so there could be no one in the backyard.
She walked back to the kitchen and asked Qiu Doudou, who was drinking wild vegetable soup, "Did you see Uncle?" ”
Qiu Doudou shook his head, "The door of his room is always bolted, and we can't get in." ”
Qiu Ling hurriedly stood up and asked a little worriedly, "Is Uncle missing?" ”
"No, you eat yours, I'll go and see." Qiu Bai asked Qiu Ling to sit down, and he went to Qiu Mu's room again, but there was still no Ye Zhiheng in the room.
Qiubai stood by the door and thought about it, and suddenly felt shocked, ran back to his room with a roar, pouted his buttocks, and turned out the box with household belongings under the bed.
Pulled out the key and opened the lock, and saw that the glossy jade pendant was placed inside, and the heart that was lifted was instantly put back.
"It's okay, it's okay, the jade is still there!" She patted her chest, locked the box and put it back, and went to the kitchen.
"Eldest sister, where's the uncle?" Qiu Ling was standing at the door of Qiu's mother's room. Seeing Qiubai coming out, he hurriedly asked.
Qiu Bai said with a relaxed face: "It's okay, he has something to go out, and there is a note on the table, I didn't see it in a hurry just now."
Hearing this, Qiu Ling first nodded reassuringly, and then said in surprise: "Huh? Big sister, when will you be able to read? ”
Qiubai was sweating wildly, and he was afraid that Qiuling would find something wrong, so he could only put on a Shura face, "What's wrong!" Look down on your eldest sister so much. Isn't it just a word, the eldest sister can still recognize a few! ”
"Oh." Qiu Ling was so frightened by Qiu Bai's fierce appearance that she didn't dare to ask again.
Qiu Doudou was sad for a long time after learning that "Uncle" left, "Why did Uncle leave and don't take me there, woo woo......"
Qiu Xiaobao was also a little sad, and kept looking at the gate of the courtyard with a bitter face.
However, both of them are children, but they left their "uncle" behind in one day.
These days the fields have been turned over and the wheat has been sown.
"Big sister, big sister!" Qiu Doudou suddenly ran back from the outside of the hospital, his voice was hurried, with a faint cry.
Qiu Ling put down the firewood and ran out of the kitchen quickly, with the demeanor of a hen protecting a calf, "What's wrong?" Who bullied you? ”
Qiu Doudou stumbled to Qiu Ling's side, hugged her waist and choked up, "Just ...... I've just heard from someone else...... Said ......" I couldn't cry anymore when I said this, "said that my father was dead......"
"Huh?" Qiu Ling's brain didn't react for a while, and after a while, he realized what Qiu Doudou meant by "Daddy is dead", "Who said that!" Daddy didn't die, Daddy went to join the army, who said Daddy died, I'll hit him in the mouth! Qiuling was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and it exploded in an instant.
Qiu Bai hurriedly threw down the spatula and walked out quickly, pulled Qiu Doudou and asked, "Who told you?"
Qiu Doudou sobbed and was just about to speak, when a middle-aged man suddenly came in at the gate of the courtyard, in his thirties.
This person Qiubai didn't know at all.
The middle-aged man had a dusty face, as if he had just come back from outside, "Xiaoqiu." He smiled kindly, his eyes were kind, and in the full cordiality, there was a little guilt.
Qiu Bai didn't know this person, so he didn't speak, and Qiu Ling cried instantly when she saw this person, "Uncle Wang...... Uncle Wang...... You're back, where's my daddy? Is my dad coming back too? ”
Wang Xuetian looked at Qiu Ling, who was crying profusely, and his heart was full of pity, "Uncle came back first, and your father will not be back until a few days later." As he spoke, he raised his hand and gently touched Qiu Ling's head.
"You're a liar! I just heard you tell someone that my dad is dead! Swindler! Qiu Doudou suddenly came out and pushed Wang Xuetian violently.
Qiu Xiaobao saw that Qiu Ling and Qiu Doudou were crying, and immediately cried, and for a while, there was a cry in the yard.
Wang Xuetian looked at this scene with a sour heart, and the corners of his mouth closed for a long time, not knowing how to speak.
"Uncle Wang, just tell me what you want." Qiubai said to Wang Xuetian, "Xiaoling, you take Doudou and Xiaobao back to the house, and I'll talk to Uncle Wang." ”
Qiu Ling opened her mouth and just wanted to speak, but Qiu Bai immediately interrupted: "Be good! You're a sister. ”
Qiu Ling stopped talking when she heard this, and took Qiu Doudou and Qiu Xiaobao into the house.
"Uncle Wang, let's go outside and talk." Qiubai said very politely.
Wang Xuetian nodded, turned around and walked out of the courtyard.
"My dad...... Is my dad okay? Qiubai has no impression of this "father" at all, so let alone feelings. However, when she heard "Daddy is dead", somewhere in her heart felt like she had been stabbed.
Wang Xuetian turned his head to look elsewhere and was silent, and only slowly spit out a few words after a while, "...... Killed in battle. ”
Qiu Bai smiled back politely when he heard this, "Oh." But his face was full of tears.
Wang Xuetian took out a cloth bag and handed it to Qiubai, and said softly: "This is what your father left for you, you can keep it." After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
"Uncle Wang! That...... Where's my father's corpse? ”
“…… No. Wang Xuetian finished speaking very sadly and then raised his legs and left.
Even the corpse capital is gone, you can imagine how miserable the death was.
Qiu Bai raised his legs and walked into the courtyard and closed the courtyard door with his hand, Qiu Ling held Qiu Doudou with one hand and Qiu Xiaobao with the other, standing under the eaves and watching her quietly.
Qiu Bai tugged at the corners of his mouth, and wanted to return Qiu Ling with a smiling face, but the tears became more and more fierce, and he couldn't stop it.
Qiu Ling's originally slightly hopeful eyes dimmed instantly, she bit her lip and didn't speak.
The whole courtyard was drenched in grief.
