Chapter 90 Not Coming Home
Wu Yan angrily spit at the door of Shen's house to vent her dissatisfaction and wanted to find someone to talk to about these things.
But everyone has gone up the mountain now, and many people staying in the nearby village are now working for the Shen family. If she wants to spread bad words about the Shen family, she is afraid that she will be repelled before she even says a few words.
In desperation, she could only go home angrily.
In the afternoon, a loud thunder suddenly exploded in the originally cloudless sky. Without giving anyone any time to react, the rain started to fall.
Gu Jin and Shen Qingsong rushed to the door of the house a second before it started to rain and helped Li Mei pack up the radish skins left outside.
After hurriedly cleaning up, Li Mei was covered in rainwater. Then she remembered, "There are so many people in the village going up the mountain today. Is it okay if it rains so heavily?"
The back mountain is dangerous and few people go there, but there are still many people digging winter bamboo shoots and plucking wild vegetables in the front mountain. It is not unusual to encounter rain.
Shen Jian didn't take this matter too seriously, "It should be fine. There are so many of them going up the mountain. They always have the ability to protect themselves."
Li Mei didn't ask much when she heard this. In the past, she might have helped and said a few words of concern, but now people in the village say that their family got rich after finding treasures in the mountains. If she went to persuade
, not only would she not be able to find anything good, people in the village might even think that she was afraid that the treasure in the mountains would be found by others.
It rained all day and all night. When the rain gradually decreased, it was already noon the next day.
Shen Cuicui went to the brigade to play with an umbrella, but her clothes were still a little wet from the shower. When she entered the door, she said, "A big tree on the west side of the back mountain fell down, and it also hit a large number of surrounding trees. The roots of the tree could not hold the soil, and the mudslide caused a loud crash."
Downstream, I heard that those who went up the mountain have not come back yet, and those people still don’t know how to come down.”
mudslide.
For a moment, everyone in the house looked unhappy. Although no one in their family went to the mountain, they were all the same men in the village who never looked up when they looked down. If they really couldn't come back because of a natural disaster...
How many families will be affected?
The entire Baishan Village fell into silence. The longer time passed, the more uneasy everyone became.
As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. The folk customs in this era are simple and simple, and comparisons and jealousies between people are not serious. If something happens to someone's family, even if there is a small friction between the two families, no one will shirk the need to help with big things.
Although the Shen family didn't say anything, they were still worried about those people on the mountain.
"I'm back, I'm back, go to the mountain pass to pick me up!" At this time, someone shouted outside the house.
Everyone heard the words and walked out of the house one after another. The Shen family also followed the words and walked to the edge of the mountain. From a distance, they could see the tragic scene of the towering tree at the mountain pass falling to the ground. Mud and gravel were everywhere, leaving the entire
The ground became messy and disorganized.
The village secretaries and cadres all arrived, looking solemn.
Seeing this made everyone feel a little panicked. Shen Jian walked up and asked, "What's the matter? Something happened to the secretary?"
"No." Secretary Li shook his head.
"Then why do I look so bad at you?"
"Most of the people in the village have gone down the mountain. Only one of my nephews, Li Yongliang, has not come down yet. I asked those people and they said that Li Yongliang disappeared last night."
After Secretary Li finished speaking in a deep voice, he noticed that the person who spoke was Shen Jian. People in the village had been spreading rumors that the Shen family had picked up a lot of treasures on the mountain and then became rich. However, these people in the village went up the mountain and then came back down, proving that the mountain was not
There is no treasure.
He asked, "No one in your family is in the mountains, right?"
Shen Jian shook his head, "No, the back mountain is too dangerous, even our Qingsong dare not go in."
Only Li Yongliang did not come down the mountain, and he had not been seen since last night.
When Wu Yan heard the news, she felt like the sky was falling and she almost sat down on the ground.
She craned her neck anxiously to look up the mountain, remembering to stamp her feet on the spot, "Uncle Third, why don't we let everyone dig it out? Everyone has iron bars at home anyway. What if our Yongliang had gone down the mountain long ago and was just buried in the soil?" Stayed."
"No." Shen Jian was the first to stand up and object.
"You can't guarantee that your Li Yongliang is down there, so it would be too dangerous to rashly dig with iron picks. If the mudslide comes again while you are digging, wouldn't it harm those who helped? This is absolutely not okay."
After hearing this, Wu Yan would not think that Shen Jian was acting out of rational considerations. Instead, she would think that he was seeking revenge for personal reasons, "Are you deliberately trying to get into trouble with me? It's not your family members who didn't come down from the mountain together, so you're not worried, right?" "
"Wu Yan'er, your Uncle Shen is right, we can't dig now." Secretary Li cleared his throat and agreed with Shen Jian's decision.
Seeing that Wu Yan was as worried as an ant on a hot pot, some tried to comfort her, while others tried to help her find a solution. There were also those whose family members had returned and hurriedly called people over and asked them to tell them about the situation on the mountain. Tell Wu Yan.
But Wu Yan didn't feel the warmth at all. Instead, she said a little bit harshly, "Something is going to happen to our Yongliang family. Gu Jin, I won't let you go. If you hadn't insisted on telling us where the baby is, Are we people so frightened?"
"Shut up, even if there is a treasure in this mountain, I have no obligation to tell you. Your man is not dead yet, and you are cursing him here. Our Li family will be in trouble for many lifetimes, marrying you like this A celebrity came in and asked if something happened to our Yongliang family. The first person I will not let go of is you." Li Yongliang's mother, Aunt Li, was so angry that she pinched her hard.
When there was that rumor in the village, neither Aunt Li nor Li Yongliang could believe it. If Wu Yan hadn't been complaining about Li Yongliang not making any money, crying and making trouble at home and insisting that Li Yongliang go to the mountain to hunt for treasures, how could this incident have happened? .
As a result, now that everyone has come down, only Yongliang of their family is left. Wu Yan is still here and is acting weird, and Aunt Li is angry at all.
The Shen family were all secretly worried about Li Yongliang. It was better for her to say such nonsense. Wu Yan's behavior was really looked down upon.
Wang's second daughter-in-law, who was inspired by Wu Yan and encouraged her man to go up the mountain, asked her, "Wu Yan'er, it's a good thing our man went down the mountain. If he hadn't come down safely, I would drag you with me to hell."
You were the first person to spread the news that there was a treasure on the mountain. You were also the one who encouraged us men to go to the mountain to look for the treasure. Now that the treasure has not been found and it still makes us so worried, what are you going to do? "
Wu Yan's expression changed when she heard this.
When the other eldest daughter-in-law of the Jiang family saw it, she immediately sneered, "If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have remembered it. If you hadn't spread rumors in the village, none of us would have thought of going to the mountains to look for treasures. The men in our family also believed your lies. , just like a man possessed, he wanted to go up the mountain to find the treasure.
