Chapter 16 Sleeping on a Rainy Night
Grandpa Mu seemed to remember the sad things of that night, sighed and went out, Mu Fan didn't know how to face the people lying here, if Grandma Mu had a spirit in the sky, she would definitely meet her granddaughter, I hope the dead Mu Fan can reform themselves, I hope they can be well in another world.
Turning around and pulling Mulan out, Mu Fan was thinking about how long this house could last. Old Man Mu was pondering.
The rain continued to fall, the only house could fall down at any time, and the family could not spend the night in the rain, so Old Man Mu decided to go to his adopted son to borrow a place to stay for one night and give him a place to shelter from the rain, even for one night.
asked Mu Fan to take care of his sister and wait here, and Grandpa Mu rushed into the rain alone wearing a ragged robe. Go and ask for their consent first, and if it is feasible, come and pick up the children, if it is not ideal, it will also save the two children from traveling.
Mu Fan looked at the old man Mu who ran into the rain, and he had no hope that he would be able to successfully spend the night. A few lightning bolts flashed in the sky, illuminating the dark and rainy night, and also reflected the back of Old Man Mu in Mu Fan's heart.
Time has passed unconsciously, and Grandpa Mu has been out for a long time.
Really worried about Grandpa Mu, Mu Fan was restless, walking around the small house, and thatch fell down from the roof with raindrops from time to time. Looking outside again, there was no one on the dark and secluded path, and Mu Fan's heart began to twitch.
Gentle words sounded in Xiao Mulan's ears: "Xiao Mulan, stay here obediently for a while, my sister will go out to find grandpa, don't be afraid, we will be back soon." Little Mulan knew her sister's worries, and nodded obediently, although she was afraid of being alone in such a thunderstorm, but she was also worried about her grandfather, so she could only wait here obediently.
Mu Fan ran out to find the old man, shouting as he ran: "Grandpa, grandpa, where are you?" ”
Since the old man Mu ran into the rain, he ran in the direction of his eldest son's house without stopping, and a quick knock on the door sounded in the rainy night.
The lights in the house turned on, and Mu Lin opened the door with a sleepy face, and saw the old man standing outside the door with an anxious face. Worried: "Dad, why did you come here in the rain, come in and sit." ”
"Mu Lin, Dad won't go in, look, can you let Dad come to your house for a night tonight, the house at home has just collapsed, and Mu Fan and Mulan are still waiting in the small house behind the house." Old Man Mu spoke hurriedly, and his tone was full of worry.
"Mulin, who, it's so late, and you don't let people sleep." Mu Lin's wife's voice sounded in the back. Slightly puzzled, he asked, "Dad, it's so late, why did your old man come over?" ”
"Eldest daughter-in-law, the house has collapsed, we can't come to your house for a night." The tone was full of pleading.
"Zhou Rong, you see it's so late, or let your father and the children come over." Mulin was on the side to help.
"Alas, it's not that I don't want to, if you were old, I would definitely be willing, but Mu Fan's girl is impossible. In particular, isn't my mother still buried, or don't want it. You go to the third one's house. With that, he pushed Mu Lin away and locked Old Man Mu out.
The old man was stunned for a moment, staggered in the direction of the third son Mu Yuan's house, and fell into the mud pit without paying attention. The voice of the eldest daughter-in-law came from the back through the wooden door: "It's okay for the old to come in, just come for the little ones, and even the dead ones have to come, hum, don't think about it." I don't know why that dead girl owes Xiangyun Gambling House twenty taels, this time let's see how she dies......"
Mu Lin really couldn't listen to it anymore: "Zhou Rong, you don't say a word, that's my father, you were too much last time you came to borrow money, obviously rich, now, alas." ”
"Mu Lin, don't go too far, I'm your daughter-in-law, are you yelling at me now?" Zhou Rong scolded angrily.
The voice behind Old Man Mu was muffled by the rain, and he limped towards his third son's house sadly.
Mu Fan, who came out later, was anxiously looking for the old man in the rain, but he couldn't find it. Passing by a house, a lame old man came out of it: "Hey, Xiao Mufan, it's so late, what are you calling here?" He asked Mu Fan with a smile.
Mu Fan followed the sound and found that it was the ancient grandfather in the village, this old man was also strange because he was alone, and he didn't like to deal with the people in the village, but now he asked Mu Fan with a smile, which seemed very awkward.
