The refugees in the "refugee camp" strode over excitedly when they saw a man who looked like a rich man, and chased a little girl with pink makeup behind them. The refugees were afraid of colliding with the nobles and avoided them one after another. After the father and daughter passed, they quietly guessed what had happened?

Hearing the voice of the youngest daughter, Yu Hai reluctantly stopped, turned around and took the hand of the youngest daughter who had caught up, and continued to walk towards the familiar figure.

"Daddy? Who do you see? Isn't it my aunt? "Since the beginning of winter, my father has been talking about my aunt who is far away in the disaster area in the northeast. I don't know what the situation is on my aunt's side, there have been refugees fleeing from Tanggu's side for a long time, but there has been no news from my aunt.

Yu Hai held his little daughter's hand, although he was in an anxious mood, he slowed down his pace to accommodate his daughter. Getting closer and closer to the thin figure, Xiaocao felt Daddy's hand trembling slightly.

"His father, drink porridge. This Tanggu porridge is much thicker than that in other places, and there is a lot of rice in it! Yu Caifeng gently picked up the man who was lying in the straw, so thin that he was not human-shaped, with a strong smile of warmth.

The man coughed violently, and his withered face turned red, as if he might not be able to breathe at any moment. Several nearby refugees, fearing that he would have tuberculosis, moved to distant places.

The man finally calmed down, tried to catch his breath a few times, and said weakly: "I'm not hungry, you and the children can drink!" ”

Yu Caifeng shook her head stubbornly and said softly: "The children are all queuing up to receive porridge!" When I arrived in Tanggu, I was considered home. When you drink this porridge and have some strength in your body, we will go back to Dongshan Village tomorrow. ”

The man moistened his dry and bloody lips with his tongue, and sighed slightly: "It's all me who dragged down your mother, if it weren't for my treatment, you wouldn't have suffered so much with you." My illness doesn't look like it's going to happen, and it's a waste for me to eat this porridge, so let's eat it! The kids are still young, so you can't be crippled by your body......"

"What do you say!! Your illness is just a cold, and the conditions on the road are not good, and there is some delay. When I return to Dongshan Village, I will turn over some money to my father and find the doctor of Tongrentang to show you...... Doctor Sun of Tongrentang in this town has good medical skills, and they all say that if he wants, it is more than enough to be a doctor. He will surely cure you! Hurry up and give me the porridge!! Yu Caifeng's eyes were moist, and she pretended to be fierce.

The man is a few years older than her, and he is a widower, and when he first got married, she didn't give him a good face for a long time because of her tough personality. However, the man has a good temper and can tolerate her little temper and spoil her like a girl. Although she was dissatisfied with this family affair at first, she was later moved by the man's sincerity and lived with him wholeheartedly. Fifteen years of companionship, relying on him and believing in him has become a habit. Now, she really can't imagine if she can live without him......

The man looked at his daughter-in-law's helpless and hesitant gaze, and a sharp pain in his heart was more unbearable than when he was ill. He forced a smile and said, "Good! I'll drink this porridge! It's all insisted on getting to the doorstep, and I have to hold on! I really can't let go of the four of you......"

"Don't say it, let's drink porridge......" Yu Caifeng wiped his eyes, scooped a spoonful of porridge with a spoon, blew it gently, and sent it to the man's mouth. The man took the porridge in his mouth and swallowed it hard.

Yu Xiaocao's father and daughter saw this scene from afar, and their hearts were full of mixed feelings. At this time, three children holding porridge passed by them, and the eldest boy's voice was slightly brisk: "Father, mother!" The soup kitchen here is really good, and we children can also get a full bowl! These three bowls of porridge are enough for our family to eat!! ”

One of the little girls who was about the same age as Xiaocao saw the man eat half a bowl of porridge, and a relieved smile appeared on her face: "Dad is in good spirits today!" Appetite is much better! Mother, is my father's illness about to be cured? ”

Yu Caifeng said while feeding the man porridge: "When I see your uncle tomorrow, your father can go to the city for treatment." The doctors in the city are doing well, and your father's illness will definitely be cured! ”

The youngest of the three children said coquettishly: "Mother, Dad's illness is cured, don't we have to beg for food?" ”

Yu Caifeng's nose was sour, and he nodded heavily: "When your father's illness is cured, you can find a job in the town." Your father is so capable, it's absolutely no problem to feed our family of five! ”

"Great! We won't be scolded as 'little flowers'! Mother, Xiaoping is not a little flower and a meal, the eldest brother said that we are just in trouble for a while, and it will be fine in the future! The little boy opened big eyes similar to Yu Caifeng, innocent and serious.

Looking at this scene, Yu Hai choked up, he walked over quickly, and shouted loudly at Yu Caifeng: "Sister!" ”

Yu Caifeng's hand holding the porridge bowl shook suddenly, as if he couldn't believe it, he slowly turned his head, and when he saw Yu Hai, his lips trembled so much that he couldn't speak.

"Sister!" Yu Hai rushed over with an arrow step, hugged Yu Caifeng, who was so thin that he only had a handful of bones left, and tears rolled in his eyes for a long time, flowing down his cheeks.

"Xiaohai? Is it Xiaohai? Yu Caifeng still couldn't believe it, for fear that she was in a dream. Along the way, supporting her beliefs, in addition to the children, is this younger brother who has not seen each other for more than ten years.

"Sister, it's me! It's your little sea!! Sister, you've suffered!! Yu Hai hugged his sister and cried like a child.

My sister is only three years older than him, and when my mother just died, my sister endured her grief and hugged him and comforted him as if Yu Hai was hugging her now. When the Zhang family withheld the food of the sister and brother on the grounds that there was no food, the sister gave him a part of her own small food many times. In order to protect him, my sister was beaten and scolded by Zhang's many times. Even if he is nearly thirty years old now, he is still the "Xiaohai" who trusts his sister!

Yu Caifeng held Yu Hai's face, looked at it carefully, and smiled reassuringly: "Xiaohai, seeing that you are doing well, my sister is relieved!" ”

Yu Hai saw the tattered clothes on his sister and children, frowned slightly, and asked, "Sister! In autumn, I will ask someone to bring a letter to you and ask you to come back. Why hasn't it been there until now? Didn't you piggyback on it? How did it come to this? ”

Yu Caifeng saw the muslin robe on his younger brother's body, although he was surprised that the Zhang family was willing to wear it so well, but he didn't ask, just sighed lightly and said, "Alas...... It's hard to put into words! ”

From Yu Caifeng's words, Yu Hai learned that due to his sister and brother-in-law's diligence and frugality, there was a slight surplus of food at home. There was a drought in the Northeast, and the couple received a letter from Yu Hai and entanglement, but they were reluctant to save the foundation they had so hard to save. So, he took out twenty taels of silver from the people brought by Yu Haituo and quietly hoarded some grain to see if he could survive until spring ploughing.

Who would have thought that after surviving a winter, those hungry people with red eyes who were hungry and red-eyed, did not know where they learned that their family had surplus food, so they rushed into their house, smashed their belongings, snatched the food, and injured her man. Fortunately, Yu Caifeng hid the remaining thirty taels of silver well and was not searched.

The food in the house was robbed, and the valuable things in the house were taken away by the hungry people. In desperation, Yu Caifeng and his wife packed up some of the softness, took their three children, and finally joined the ranks of refugees.

Halfway through, a cold struck the refugee ranks, and many of the fleeing people fell ill. Yu Hai's brother-in-law, Liu Hu, relied on his strong body to give all the clothes he brought to his daughter-in-law and children, and fell ill.

At first, Liu Hu didn't take his illness to heart. Didn't I get sick in the past? He didn't want to delay the trip because of himself, and he didn't say anything about the high fever, so he stiffened on the road. Finally, he fell ill in a small town that had just come out of the Northeast.

At this time, he had a small wind chill, but it had turned into pneumonia. The town was backward in terms of medical care, with only one barefoot doctor. The money was also spent, and the medicine was caught. Liu Hu's illness always recurs and cannot be cured.

In this way, I have to live in a hotel and treat the disease. More than a month later, the money Liu Caifeng brought had already been spent. Liu Hu felt that his illness could not be cured, so he refused to accept treatment and insisted on continuing on the road. Yu Caifeng couldn't resist him, so he had to take away the extra luggage, rent an ox cart, and come all the way south.

On the way, Liu Hu's illness was good and bad, and all the entanglements had been spent, and even eating became a problem, let alone renting a car. The family supported each other, begging for food while hurrying. If it weren't for a belief in his heart that supported him, Liu Hu would have fallen long ago - before he died, he must watch his daughter-in-law and children, return to his hometown, and find his relatives. Otherwise, he won't be able to turn a blind eye!

People, once supported by faith, can often create miracles. Liu Hu dragged his sick body and actually survived until the day he saw the ancient city gate of Tang. The moment he watched his daughter-in-law and her brother embrace, a deep tiredness came over him—perhaps, it was time for him to leave with peace of mind.

"Daddy...... Father! Mother, dad seems to have fainted again!! Yu Caifeng's eldest son, Liu Junping, gently pushed his father, but did not get any response, he shouted in a panic.

Liu Caifeng returned to see the man's death-like face, sighed in his heart, hurriedly pounced, and stretched out his trembling fingers under the man's nose. This time, her face suddenly changed greatly, and she cried "Dad! He fainted in front of Yu Hai.

Yu Haiyan quickly supported his sister's fallen body, looked at Liu Hu who was lying in the straw pile, his eyes closed, and a sourness hit his heart.

"Daddy! Father!! The three children seemed to realize something, crying and shaking Liu Hu's body. The voice sounded sad, and those who heard it wept.
