At four o'clock, wake up Luo Shaoqiang, ask him to wash up, and then go to burn paper.

Neighbors who came to help have come to the Luo family one after another.

Director Yu also passed by and said, "The hearse will be here at 8 o'clock."

"Yes! You take Qiangqiang with you, Yaya and I will wait at home."

"OK."

By nine o'clock, only Zhou Xiang and Yaya were left in the Luo family yard.

The yard was a mess, with garbage all over the floor.

There was a lot of rice, flour, oil, salt and vegetables left over, so Zhou Xiang went to the next door and asked her to help clean up, and she could give her the remaining rice, flour and salt.

The neighbors immediately came over happily to clean, and even cleaned the house.

After Zhou Xiang gave her the odds and ends, he also gave her some leftover odds and ends from Luo's kitchen.

The woman thanked him happily and went home with the things.

Yaya asked, "Sister, aren't we going to eat?"

"You and your brother are leaving with me, so don't take the remaining rice and flour at home. We can't take all of it. The two big packages in the house are what you need to take with you."

"oh!"

It was already eleven o'clock when Luo Shaoqiang came back, and Director Yu came back with him.

"Zhou Xiang, this is the remaining money."

Zhou Xiang took it and handed her Luo Shaoqiang's household registration book and food grain book.

"I still need your help with these two things. I will come to get them when I need them. You can also take care of the house. I will come to collect the pension from time to time."

"well."

Director Yu took the household registration book and food grain book.

"You can handle the remaining food. I'll take care of the leftovers."

Director Yu looked at the clean yard and knew how she got the leftover food.

Director Yu took the things away, and Zhou wanted her to call a donkey cart in as well.

After loading the things onto the donkey cart and going around to the neighborhood committee, Zhou Xiang handed the keys to Director Yu and returned to Huai County with his two children.

At Huaixian Bus Station, I took a donkey cart again.

Holding the frightened Yaya, dragging two big packages and Qiangqiang who was pretending to be strong, Zhou Xiang appeared in the yard of the Water Conservancy Bureau.

"Aunt Fang, Zhenzhen, Zuo Heng."

“Hey!”

"elder sister!"

Zhenzhen ran out of the house and stopped when she saw Yaya in Zhou Xiang's arms.

Zhou Xiang put Yaya down and said, "Come here, Zhenzhen, this is Yaya's younger sister. Yaya, call me Zhenzhen sister."

"Sister Zhenzhen!"

“Hey!”

The two little girls immediately felt like sisters. Zhenzhen took Yaya's hand and said, "Come on, go inside and play. My brother has lots of toys."

Zhou Xiang pulled Luo Shaoqiang over and said to Zuo Heng and Fang Yuehong who were standing at the door of the main hall, "Aunt Fang, Zuo Heng, this is Luo Shaoqiang, Yaya's brother. Can we let them stay with you?"

Zhou Xiang really didn't know where to put Luo Shaoqiang and his sister. His own family already had a lot of things to do. At least the Zuo family had Zhenzhen to keep Yaya company, and their parents were loving and the family atmosphere was harmonious.

"Okay, sure, come inside."

Fang Yuehong warmly invited people into the house.

Zuo Heng helped move the two large packages into the west room.

Zhou Xiang pulled Luo Shaoqiang, bent down and looked him in the eye, "Qiangqiang, I didn't just abandon you. This is a family of four. The older brother just now is called Zuo Heng, and he's in the sixth grade.

My younger sister is Zuo Zhen. She suffered some trauma and needs to stay at home to recuperate. Aunt Fang is a kind mother, and I have a capable father, Zuo, who went to help me with things.

So, this place is at least suitable for Yaya. Zuo Heng is a good brother and he is very caring. That's why I feel at ease to place you here. My family is more complicated and not suitable for a child as young as you.

You stay here for a while, and if you don’t like it here, I’ll find another way.”

Luo Shaoqiang nodded with tears in his eyes, "I know, sister Xiangxiang, you have to come to see us often."

"Of course, these are all my relatives, I won't leave them alone."

After saying that, she took out a few ten-yuan coins and stuffed them into his pocket. "This is for you as a backup. Buy whatever you want. I have money and can support you and Yaya."

Luo Shaoqiang nodded, "Okay!"

"You should adapt to Yaya for a while first. We can talk about school later."

"OK!"

After comforting Luo Shaoqiang, he talked with Zuo Heng and Fang Yuehong. Fang Yuehong felt sorry for the two children when she heard that they were relatives of martyrs and their only relative, their grandmother, had just passed away.

"Okay, okay, don't worry. I will definitely take care of them as if they were my own children. It's just right that Zhenzhen and I have company."

"Yes! I sent them here because I trust you. I feed and clothe them well so that the children will believe that they are not a burden."

"Okay, I understand."

"Do you have any money left?"

"Yes, there are many."

"Well! If it's not enough, tell me."

"OK."

Zhou Xiang wanted to comfort Zhenzhen and Yaya again, but the two little girls didn't seem to be reluctant to leave her at all.

"Goodbye, sister!"

"Goodbye, sister!"

Zhou Xiang felt a little suffocated, Fang Yuehong smiled, it was good that the two girls could play together.

Seeing that his sister was not restrained or afraid, Luo Shaoqiang also had some hope for this family.

"Sister Xiangxiang, go get busy!"

"good."

After Zhou Xiang left, Zuo Heng took Luo Shaoqiang into the west room. "This is the kang, it's warm. Your things are here, please put them away. Oh, and open the right door of the wardrobe. Inside are clothes that are too small for Zhou Hua and me. If you don't mind, you can wear them. Zhou Hua is Zhou Xiang's brother."

Luo Shaoqiang nodded, "I don't mind."

"Sister Yaya will temporarily sleep in the east room with Zhenzhen and my mother. If she's scared, she can sleep in the same bed with you. This kang is big enough for three or four adults to sleep on."

"Okay! Thank you, Brother Zuo Heng."

Fang Yuehong, leaning on a crutch, went to the kitchen and cooked some noodles for the two children. It was already one o'clock, and with so much food and two children, they definitely hadn't had lunch.

"Zuo Heng, call brother Qiangqiang and sister Yaya to come for dinner."

"Okay!"

Luo Shaoqiang also heard it, put down what he was holding and walked out of the west room.

In the main room, Zhenzhen took Yaya to play with toys. There were toys all over the floor. Many of them were things Luo Shaoqiang had never seen before, and some he had seen with his classmates.

He felt relieved as long as his sister was at ease.

He took his sister's hand and said, "Let's go. Let's play after dinner."

"Okay!" Zhenzhen put down the toy.

Fang Yuehong filled the water and saw the brother and sister come in. She pointed to the wash basin and said, "Wash your hands and eat."

"Thank you, Aunt Fang!"

Fang Yuehong rubbed the top of his head and said, "Don't be polite. Just treat this as your own home. We were all rescued by Zhou Xiang and raised by her. We are all the same. Don't be too restrained."

Luo Shaoqiang felt the gentle touch on his head, like the feeling of his mother touching him when he was a child. He also heard that even she was saved by Sister Xiang Xiang, and his heart was finally at ease. Sister Xiang Xiang was amazing! He wanted to learn from her.

When Zhenzhen heard her brother say that sister Yaya would live at home in the future, she was very happy and said, "Brother, I like sister Yaya."
