Chapter 33 Thank you for a candy
"Captain, this cow ate poisonous weeds. Coupled with the hot summer weather, the animal's temperament is unstable, so it went crazy."
Liu Tiandong, the barefoot doctor from the village, rushed over, checked the condition of the cows, and said.
Captain Li sighed. The mad cow was also dead. Because it ate poisonous weeds, the beef could not be eaten. It was really a loss of both his wife and his troops.
At this moment, Yun Xiaotang ran towards the direction Zhou Nanyue left, but he couldn't even see anyone.
She doesn't know where his home is.
She didn't even know his name.
She was not on the same team as him, she only had contact with him once or twice, and she never spoke more than two sentences.
She wanted to thank him, but she couldn't find him.
Walking back dejectedly, he met Zhao Xueer and Zhao Tianer who were looking for them.
"Sister, it was that boy who saved me just now. Can we find him and thank him?"
Yun Xiaotang held her sister's hand, looked up at her and said.
Zhao Xueer knew that her sister was saved by the kid from the landlord's family. Now the people in the team are still extremely angry with the landlord. The landlord is a bad element in the Black Five Category.
However, she knew that the landlord would be rehabilitated in the future, and since he was just a child, he was not wrong.
"Sister knows where his home is, let's go home and prepare some things first, and then go thank him, okay?" Zhao Xueer touched her sister's head and said.
"Yeah, okay, let's go home first."
On the way back, they also met Dou Hongxia who was looking for her.
Dou Hongxia took them and looked them up and down. When she saw that everyone was fine, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank God, you are fine."
She couldn't run very fast, and she was carrying a child on her back, so her pace was slower.
Several people went home together.
When she got home, Zhao Xueer fetched a basin of water and washed the blood stains on her sister's face. At that time, her sister was standing under the cow, with blood splattered on her face.
"Sister, I'll do it myself." Yun Xiaotang took the handkerchief from her sister's hand and wiped her face by herself.
Zhao Xueer went to the kitchen, took out the polished rice and flour she bought before, found a clean bag, and put the rice and flour in it. Then she put the sun-dried purslane and wild mountain residue into a large bag.
She knew that these things were not enough, but they had nothing good at home, so they could only take some food to express their gratitude.
When I have good things at home in the future, I will thank you more.
That child saved my sister's life.
She knew the situation in his family, and the villagers had always talked about their family's last plight in their previous life.
It was quite miserable, everyone was gone...
After packing the food, Zhao Xueer carried it and put it into the bamboo basket.
"Auntie, you make lunch at home first, and Chun'er and I will go thank you."
With the bamboo basket on her back, Yun Xiaotang's hand was held by her sister and she was about to go out.
Yun Xiaotang said happily, "Sister, do you know where that brother's home is?"
"I know. We will come to thank you now."
"I'll go with you." When Zhao Tian'er heard that they were going out, he wanted to follow them.
So, the three people went out together and headed towards the east of the village.
*
Mrs. Chen didn't feel well this morning and didn't go to work. But now she saw her grandson coming back with his hands covered with blood, which shocked her.
"What are you doing? Where did the blood on your hands come from? Why do you still have a knife in your hand?"
The more Mrs. Chen thought about it, the more frightened she became. She didn't know what she was thinking, and she was so horrified that she stepped back.
Zhou Nanyue didn't even raise his eyelids and scooped water from the bucket to rinse his hands and dagger.
This dagger was actually prepared by him to catch animals in the mountains, but he didn't expect it to come in handy at the critical moment.
"Why don't you say anything? What have you been doing?"
Mrs. Chen continued to ask sharply.
At this time, Yun Xiaotang and the others had arrived outside Zhou Nanyue's house, "Is anyone home?"
Yun Xiaotang quickly stepped forward and knocked gently on the door.
In the yard, Mrs. Chen heard the voice and went to open the door tremblingly, only to see three children standing at the door.
"What are you doing?"
Yun Xiaotang blinked and said, "Grandma, we are here to thank that brother for saving me."
As he spoke, he pointed his finger at Zhou Nanyue in the yard.
Upon hearing that they were here to thank me, Mrs. Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Is that so? Come in first."
After Zhou Nanyue washed his hands and face, he looked at the person who came in. He had just heard the child's voice.
At this moment, the child was looking at him with round eyes.
After entering the main room, Zhao Xueer put down the bamboo basket on her back, took out the food and put it on the table, and briefly explained what happened.
Old Mrs. Chen refused immediately. She also had some backbone. How could she take this food? Moreover, she looked at it and saw that it was polished rice and flour.
She never even thought that her grandson actually saved someone, and that others did not dislike her family's status and actually came to thank her, even bringing a thank-you gift.
"Take the things back and save them easily." The immature boy's voice sounded, but there was indifference and ruthlessness in his voice.
Yun Xiaotang knew that this boy was a little lonely, so he said, "Thank you, brother, for saving me. This is our sincere wish."
"Grandma, just take it. If you don't take it, I'll be uneasy." Zhao Xueer also said.
Suddenly, a man rushed out of the room, walked up to Yun Xiaotang, and said in a hoarse voice, "Good baby, I'll give you some candy, eat it, eat it~"
It was a woman holding a candy that looked melted and dirty in her hand. She was looking at Yun Xiaotang and asking her to eat the candy.
Zhao Xueer's heart suddenly lifted. At this time, the woman was very close to Yun Xiaotang. She was really afraid that the woman would suddenly hurt her sister.
Zhou Nanyue's eyes were filled with frost, and just as he was approaching to pull the woman away, a voice rang out.
"Thank you, aunt, for the candy. I'll keep it when I get home."
Yun Xiaotang took the candy handed over by the woman, put it in his coat pocket, and then smiled at her.
There seemed to be something flashing in the woman's eyes.
At this time, Mrs. Chen came over and grabbed the woman's arm, "My good daughter, you go back to your room and rest first."
The woman didn't struggle and returned to the room obediently, turning her head three times at a time.
Zhou Nanyue seemed to be frozen in place, motionless, just watching the scene in front of him.
After a long while, he said, "I've accepted the things. You don't need to thank me anymore."
This is driving people away.
Yun Xiaotang and the others didn't pay attention to his cold attitude, thanked him again, and left.
On the way back, Yun Xiaotang frowned as she recalled the scene just now.
"Sister, their family..."
Looking at her sister's round eyes full of questions, Zhao Xueer didn't know how to speak for a moment.
How do you explain the landlord to your sister? And the woman just now...
She knelt down and rubbed her sister's hair, and said softly, "Their family... the people in the village have misunderstandings about them. It will be fine after the misunderstandings are resolved. And the aunt just now is - is sick."
Come on, don't be afraid, Chun'er."
Yun Xiaotang nodded, knowing that her sister didn't want to say anything. After all, she was only a child of a few years old. Even if Zhao Xueer really made it clear, she probably wouldn't understand.
It's okay, the days are long.
She had some vague guesses in her mind, no wonder...
Chapter completed!
