A sentence that was not easy to settle made Gu Huanxi's heart sink instantly, his face was quite stable, and he asked without showing joy and anger, "Did they cry to Village Chief Xu?" ”

Gao Zhuang nodded with a sad face, the people of the Gao family left with the large army at that time, and there was no one less, so at this time, there was no need to face the grief of losing a loved one, and there was no need to worry about entanglement with anyone, but, in the end, there was a village to live, if someone really asked to come to the door, could his family still care?

"What about Village Chief Xu's attitude?" Gu Huanxi asked again, "Uncle Xu is also here, right?" ”

"Well, the fourth uncle and my father, Uncle Liu are all here, the village chief uncle heard the movement, so he trotted away, now, everyone is discussing things at the entrance of the village, the village chief's uncle's face is very ugly, seeing their miserable situation, and seeing so many people less, tears are falling, after all, the people of the Xu family are also dozens less, do you remember Xu Youtian who went to your house to steal things before?"

Gu Huanxi nodded, he was broken by Xu Huaiyi at that time, and because of this, he shocked the people in the village and made them dare not underestimate the Gu family again.

Gao Zhuang said in a complicated tone, "Xu Youtian's family of more than a dozen people, there are still four dead, his legs are lame, but he survived, but his two brothers and father and mother are all gone, there is still a crying blind sister-in-law, and two nephews, when I saw the village chief uncle, I knelt down and hugged his thighs and cried, and I fainted without howling a few voices......"

Gu Huanxi pondered for a moment, and asked with a solemn face, "What about the Xu family?" ”

Gao Zhuang naturally knew who the Xu family she was talking about, and said with a slightly strange expression, "Second Uncle Xu's family, except for a few children missing, everyone else is here." ”

Gu Huanxi raised his eyebrows, is the old Xu family hanging? There is no one less than one adult!

She wasn't so vicious as to hope that the people of the old Xu family would be unlucky, but the adults survived, but it was also surprising and weird.

Gao Zhuang thought of something, and said, "By the way, Xu Honglian doesn't seem to be there, and I haven't seen Xu's second sister-in-law, and I haven't seen my granddaughters......"

Gu Huanxi's heart moved, "Is there anything else?" ”

Gao Zhuang hesitated, "Your mother-in-law, it seems that she can't walk, lying on the ox cart, I don't know what the situation is, I didn't hear her just now, Second Brother Xu is a little lame when he walks, only he is talking to Uncle Xu, and the others don't pay attention to people, anyway, they are discouraged, and they seem to be depressed, but compared to other people, they are not so miserable." ”

When Gu Huanxi heard this, he couldn't help but think to himself, the old Xu family had met some "noble" to help, otherwise it would be difficult to be so complete, and he hadn't lost his weight yet.

As for who the "nobleman" was, thinking of what Gao Zhuang said, the old Xu family lacked Xu Honglian and a few granddaughters, she couldn't help frowning in disgust.

Hopefully not what she guessed.

"Third sister-in-law, do you want to go to the entrance of the village to have a look?" Gao Zhuang asked cautiously, "After the people in the village found out, they all ran to recognize their relatives." ”

Gu Huanxi shook his head, "Ah Li can't leave me, take her with you, I don't worry, in case the illness is over, it's a big deal, your third brother is not here, even if I go, I can't speak, there is the village chief Uncle and Uncle Xu are here, they just make the arrangements." ”

Gao Zhuang nodded, indeed, this situation is not easy to deal with at the moment, there are elders in charge, even if he goes, he can only watch.

"Third sister-in-law, then I won't go either, I'll go back to the workshop and stare at it."

"Okay, good work."

After Gao Zhuang left, Gu Huanxi instructed Hug Pu and Shou Hu, "You two go to the entrance of the village to see how the people are settled, and come back and tell me." ”

The two of them complied respectfully and ran out with a smoke.

The two of them were fresh faces, and when they arrived at the entrance of the village, they were mixed in the crowd of onlookers, and no one paid attention.

At this time, the scene of relatives seeing each other, hugging their heads and crying has passed, and those who are missing a few people also know, the miserable link is still in progress, most people are paralyzed on the ground and can't get up, and those who can stand and complain have to gasp a few times after saying two sentences, sallow face, dry hair, tattered clothes, no need to cry with their mouths, it is enough to make people feel sorry for their experience.

Village Chief Xu asked about their situation on the road and the situation of the victims in Qingzhou, as for the details, I kept it to inquire slowly, and what urgently needed to be solved at the moment was the resettlement problem.

Originally, it was intended to be placed on the Zhuangzi newly bought by Xu Huaiyi, but first, it has not been built, and secondly, none of these ten or so families are complete, there are miserable ones, and there are still a few dead left.

Village Chief Xu couldn't speak, and wanted to discuss it with Xu Maoyuan, but seeing that Xu Maoyuan was still immersed in the grief of dozens of dead people in the Xu family, he couldn't extricate himself, and he didn't look at him at all, he sighed helplessly, cheered up, and asked a few other people who still had the strength to complain, "What do you think?" Do you have any plans? ”

It was a person from the Xu clan who was questioned, and he had to call the village chief Xu a second cousin, he wiped his reddened eyes, and choked up, "What else can you think?" Along the way, we don't dare to think about anything, just a hope, we want to come to the capital alive to find you, otherwise we won't be able to hold on, Uncle Ertang, you don't know, along the way, there are all dead people, gnawed by wild dogs, bitten by vultures, not even a broken mat to wrap themselves, just so violent corpse wilderness, become a lonely ghost and wild ghost, too many, too much, I am so scared that I have nightmares every night......"

Village Chief Xu didn't know how to be relieved, his face was heavy and gloomy, and he wanted to say, when I asked you to leave together, you didn't want to, and yelled at me with a stiff neck, just like I hurt you by letting you leave, and now I finally regret it, right?

Now that he is saying this, it is to poke his heart, he is not so ruthless, and sighed, "It's all over, with fast logistics, life can be lived, don't worry about no food, the capital is also very concerned about disaster relief, tens of thousands of disaster victims have been settled, and they all have a way to live......"

When the other party heard this, he cried even worse, "I can't get by, second uncle, so many people died, how could I forget?" I dreamed that they wanted to eat with me, but I was so hungry that I drank my own blood, where can I send them? ”

"When I left my hometown, I ran out of food?"

"Where? It's all robbed, if it weren't for the food, my father and mother wouldn't have been killed by those robbers, and my daughter-in-law, woo woo woo ......"

"When you arrived in the capital, didn't you go to the resettlement center for the victims? Houses are being built there, work for relief, preparing to build a new village, and there is porridge to drink every day......"

"I went, and drank porridge a few times, but there were too few houses built there, and they had already been occupied, so we went, and we could only have more than a dozen people crowded in a simple shack, leaking wind in all directions, and if we didn't die of hunger, we had to freeze to death, God finally opened my eyes, and let us hear Hutian Village, knowing that you live here, if we don't come to you, who else can we go to?"

The words are very clear, and Village Chief Xu has long been mentally prepared, but the feeling of being relied on is somewhat uncomfortable, he frowned, "Of course, we originally lived in the same village, and we are of the same clan, you are right to come, but there are no idle houses in the village at the moment, and the Zhuangzi in Huaiyi is covered, and it will be completed in two days, what do you mean?" ”

The other party was stunned, as if he didn't understand what he said, "Huaiyi's Zhuangzi? ”

Village Chief Xu didn't have time to explain too much to him, so he only said vaguely, "Huaiyi bought a Zhuangzi, which may be used as a workshop in the future, so he built a few houses in advance, thinking, if you don't have a place to live after you come, you can also borrow it first, and when the spring starts next year, you all build a new house, and then vacate it for him." ”

The other party's eyes widened in disbelief and blurted out, "Where did Xu Huaiyi get so much silver?" ”

When their hungry eyes were green on the road, and they were always worried that they would be killed, Xu Huaiyi already had the money to buy Zhuangzi and buy land and become a master?

This world of difference instantly made everyone else feel jealous and uncomfortable like never before.

There is no comparison, there is no harm, originally they were jealous of the wave of people who left first, but when they arrived here, they saw the neat houses, as well as the thick and clean clothes of Village Chief Xu and others, as well as the brilliance on their faces, that kind of jealousy was even more profound, but they could barely control it, however, at this moment, when they heard Xu Huaiyi like this, they collapsed.

In fact, the reason why they were able to find out that the people of Xujia Village were resettled in Hutian Village was because of Xu Huaiyi, and many people in the resettlement site mentioned this name.

They are all like this, not to mention the people of the old Xu family.

The better Xu Huaiyi lives, the more miserable and ridiculous they are.

Xu Huaili dragged a swollen and painful leg, approached Xu Maoyuan and asked, "Uncle, what's the matter with Xu Huaiyi buying Zhuangzi?" And, what about others? His parents and brothers are here, and he doesn't show up? Even if he is the son-in-law of the Gu family, not the Xu family, he shouldn't be so ruthless and unjust, right? ”

Xu Huaixiao hugged his father, stopped talking, and secretly pulled his father's arm, reminding him that there were some things that should not be said, but don't show them.

Xu Maoyuan knew in his heart that Xu Huaiyi's affairs couldn't be hidden at all, sooner or later they would all know that they couldn't hide from what they should come, "Huaiyi went to study at the martial arts academy, lived in the academy, and only came back once in ten days and a half months, he couldn't take care of the affairs in the village, let alone know that you would come, why did he come out to see you?" ”

"What?"

Not only Xu Huaili was shocked, but the rest of the old Xu family was also dumbfounded, with a ghostly expression.

Xu Huailian asked in a deep voice, "The third brother has studied?" He doesn't even know a few big characters, so why did he go to the academy to study? Is the threshold for colleges in Beijing to accept students so low? ”

Xu Huairen was originally leaning on the ox cart in a daze, but at this moment, he suddenly looked up, "The academy in the capital must have to ask for a lot of silver, right?" Where did Huaiyi get the money? And what is the Zhuangzi you are talking about? Huaiyi made a fortune? ”

Xu Maoshan also looked at him burningly, and the light of Qiyi burst out in his cloudy old eyes, "Big brother, did Huaiyi encounter something created?" ”

Xu Maoyuan looked at the expressions of several people, and explained in a complicated manner, "There is nothing to create, it is all spelled out by Huaiyi himself, and it is even more that Ah Li's mother has the ability to earn it, this matter will not be clear for a while, and I will tell you later, in short, Huaiyi is now going to study in the academy, and he has also bought a house and a Zhuangzi, and his life is not bad." ”

Someone next to him answered, "There is also a tofu workshop, the business is good, our village can live so quickly, but it is all a blessing for Huaiyi, without him, the big guy is still hungry." ”

When that person said this, he didn't have any malice, but he had a good intention, he just wanted to show off Xu Huaiyi's current ability in front of the old Xu family and slap the old Xu family in the face.

But Xu Huaixiao glared at him unhappily, what kind of mess is there? Can't get enough excitement?

Sure enough, the people of the old Xu family all had stiff expressions, and their eyes flashed with all kinds of complex emotions, including jealousy, resentment, redness and unwillingness, and uncontrollable greed.

Xu Maoshan asked in a trembling voice, "Big brother, is this all true?" Huaiyi even opened a workshop? Can you pull the whole village to eat enough? ”

Xu Maoyuan nodded, didn't explain more, and asked instead, "What are your plans?" ”

Xu Huaili didn't think about it, "What else can I plan?" Huaiyi is so promising, can he still care about the life or death of his parents and brothers? ”

He said it for granted, and everyone else was obviously moved by it.

Lai Shang Xu Huaiyi, what are you worried about in the future? Any difficulties can be solved, no need to sleep in the open, no need to worry about worrying, no need to worry about taking care of the paralyzed Mrs. Zhao, no need to worry about a few sick children, and the family's food, drink and livelihood, all of which are solved.

They seemed to be drowning, grabbing a piece of driftwood that could save their lives, and the burning in their eyes made Xu Maoyuan's heart tremble, and he subconsciously said, "Then how can it be done?" Huaiyi is not at home......"

Xu Huaili said, "What does it matter if you are not at home?" As long as the house is there, we don't need anyone to serve us, we can sleep on a hot kang, and then we can stutter. ”

Hearing this, Xu Maoyuan's face sank, "Huaiyi's family, only Ah Li's mother and her two children, you live in, it's inconvenient, it's better to find another house to settle in, it's really not good, just live with me first, after two days, the houses on the Zhuangzi will be cleaned up, you can go there for a few months temporarily." ”

Xu Huaili blurted out, "What are you doing there?" The new house is damp and cold, and it is comfortable to live in Huaiyi's house, and the younger siblings are not outsiders, and there is still a sister-in-law and mother, what is inconvenient? Isn't it, Daddy? ”

Xu Maoshan saw what his eldest brother meant, and his heart sank, "Big brother, is Huaiyi still resentful of us and doesn't want us to live in it?" You're helping him stop us, aren't you? ”

Before Xu Maoyuan could speak, Xu Huaili said angrily, "What does he mean?" If you get rich, you won't recognize your father and brother? How dare he! Do you dare to read like this? A crime of unfilial piety can make him have no chance to get ahead in his life. ”

Xu Huairen sneered and said, "That is, filial piety is greater than the sky, even if the family is divided, there is no reason to ignore his biological parents, if he is really so ruthless, don't blame us for not talking about brotherhood and going to the yamen to sue him." ”

Xu Mao's face turned pale, and he pointed at a few of them and scolded, "Are you crazy?" It's okay to just see Huaiyi like this? Do you have to ruin him to be willing? (End of chapter)
