Chapter 160 Xiao Ba rescues Han Ergou from falling into the well
The last time their parents came they were in a hurry and only left a bunch of words of thanks.
The five men went back to recuperate and as soon as they recovered, they couldn't wait to thank their savior.
This time they brought a lot of gifts, not only for Li Caiyun, but also for the staff of the Public Security Brigade who were looking for them...
If it weren't for the people from the public security brigade who took the trouble to find them, the four brothers would have lost their lives in the mountains. They have no way to repay this kindness.
Li Caiyun didn't think about asking for anything in return when she saved people. Besides, given the situation at the time, no one would stand by and watch.
So she would not accept the gift, and she said: "Sister, you are too polite. If it were you, no one would stand idly by..."
Gu Shuwen was moved by Li Caiyun's words: "Sister Li, you are really beautiful and kind."
Li Caiyun smiled and looked at Gu Shuwen: "Little girl, you are so sweet."
Gu Shuwen smiled happily. She held Li Caiyun's hand and emotionally wanted to become sworn sisters with her.
Li Caiyun looked at Gu Shuwen, wanting to refuse but feeling embarrassed, and then they became sisters.
Li Caiyun didn't take this matter seriously, mistakenly thinking that Gu Shuwen was just in a whim.
However, a few days later, before Gu Shuwen returned to the provincial capital, she came to the Li family again carrying a lot of bags.
Gu Shuwen stayed for one night and then went back. A few days after she left, Li Caiyun received a letter from Zhou Yong.
The original plan was for a one-month study, but because the learning content was temporarily increased, the return date is yet to be determined.
Li Caiyun smiled sweetly after reading the letter, because this was the third letter Zhou Yong mailed to her after he left.
She read the contents of the letter again, took out the letter paper and wrote back to Zhou Yong.
In the letter, she told Zhou Yong that everything was normal at home, but the child missed him...
As for whether she thought about Zhou Yong, she did not write it in the letter.
The next day, Li Caiyun asked someone to take the letter to the commune and mail it out, and she followed the procedure.
Li Caiyun had just finished her work that day when Miao Jinfeng approached her mysteriously.
"Caiyun, don't you find something strange? Shao Wenjing hasn't been here for some time."
Li Caiyun was stunned. Thinking back, she realized that she hadn't seen Shao Wenjing at the farm for some time.
"Sister-in-law, are you missing her?"
Miao Jinfeng didn't want Shao Wenjing, she lowered her voice and said, "Haven't you heard the rumors in the village?"
"What rumors?"
Li Caiyun usually either stays at home or works at the farm. The only purpose of visiting Ma San's house was to sit for a while. Liu Juan was about to give birth again, so if anything happened in the village, she would definitely not know about it until the very last moment.
Miao Jinfeng curled her lips with an expression of disbelief: "How is that possible? Auntie didn't tell you anything?"
Li Caiyun glared at Miao Jinfeng: "Sister-in-law, my mother is at home all day coaxing the children, and she hardly goes out..."
Spring is coming, and the clothes and shoes of the three children are too small. Together with the shoes for the adults, Zhang Guifang has been doing needlework while taking care of the children at home. She doesn't have time to take the children to visit relatives and friends.
Miao Jinfeng showed an expression of realization. Li Caiyun looked at her expression and asked, "Sister-in-law, what happened?"
Everyone is curious, and Li Caiyun is no exception.
Miao Jinfeng stared at the door of the office and talked to Li Caiyun about the rumors in the village.
Some people noticed that Shao Wenjing and Zhou Wenfeng have been very close recently, and some people even saw them hugging each other in private.
Li Caiyun was stunned when she heard this: "No way?"
Miao Jinfeng said, "Why not? They are both intellectuals and they both like to write. Isn't it normal for them to have some romantic affairs?"
Although Li Caiyun didn't like Shao Wenjing, she felt that Shao Wenjing was not the kind of fickle woman.
Besides, Zhou Wenfeng was just an educated youth. He had no formal job and no roots in Huaixi Village. Any woman with a brain knew that he could not compare with Sun Qing.
After listening to Li Caiyun's analysis, Miao Jinfeng felt that it made some sense.
"So this matter is probably just chasing shadows..."
Li Caiyun made a summary.
Miao Jinfeng pondered for a few seconds, and asked Li Caiyun with doubt in her heart: "If it is just hearsay, then why hasn't Shao Wenjing come to the farm these days?"
Li Caiyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "She doesn't work at the farm, why does she come here every day? Besides, it's almost spring, so she's probably at home making clothes for the children and adults..."
Miao Jinfeng blinked, unsure of what to say.
"I can't argue with you. Come on, I'm going to get busy."
Li Caiyun smiled and Miao Jinfeng went about her own business.
When it was time to get off work, Li Caiyun left first on her bicycle. As soon as she arrived at the door of her house, her three children ran towards her.
Li Caiyun got off the bicycle and pushed it into the yard. Zhou Kexin and her two siblings also came up to her.
"Are you guys good at home?"
The three children nodded together. Li Caiyun thought to herself: I don’t believe you!
After parking the bicycles, Li Caiyun led them into the house.
Zhang Guifang was cooking in an apron, and Li Baotian was helping to light the fire.
Li Caiyun went back to the west room to change clothes and carried firewood to burn the two kangs in the north and south of the west room.
Three children surrounded her, calling her "Mom" one by one, but Li Caiyun was patient and would respond every time the children called her.
"Mom, when will my dad come back?"
"You'll be back in a few days?"
"How many days is a few days later?"
Li Caiyun smiled and said, "About ten days or half a month!"
The child started to stick his teeth together and asked how many days were in ten days or half a month.
For example, this kind of question is asked several times by the siblings every day, and Li Caiyun has long been accustomed to it.
After dinner, the three children went to the yard to play. After Li Baotian finished chopping the wood, he took them to the gate.
Li Caiyun washed a few pieces of clothes, and Zhang Guifang was making clothes for the children.
It was dark, and Li Baotian took his three children back home. When it was time to go to bed, they all went to the west room.
After washing their feet, the three children played for a while and then went to bed obediently at seven o'clock.
Li Caiyun tucked their quilts together with a smile, and then she returned to the south kang.
She read for a while, and when she felt tired, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
After extinguishing the candle, Li Caiyun closed her eyes, her heart filled with thoughts of Zhou Yong.
It was a little after ten o'clock and she was about to fall asleep when she heard Cao Biao shouting outside the gate.
Li Caiyun initially thought she had misheard, but after listening again and making sure she was not dreaming, she hurriedly sat up and lit a candle.
She put on her clothes and came out of the west room. Li Baotian had already gone out with a flashlight.
"Mom, what happened?"
Zhang Guifang yawned: "Mom doesn't know what happened, let's go out and take a look."
If something big hadn't happened, Cao Biao wouldn't have disturbed Li Baotian in the middle of the night.
When the mother and daughter came out, they learned that Han Ergou had fallen into the well while drunk. Someone was currently trying to rescue him, but it was hard to say whether he was alive or dead.
Li Baotian even cursed and asked Zhang Guifang and her daughter to go home, and he and Cao Biao went to the scene.
"Who did Han Ergou drink with last night?"
Cao Biao shook his head: "I also heard it from other people. I don't know exactly how much he drank or who he drank with..."
Li Baotian sighed and the two of them trotted to the scene.
Han Ergou has not been rescued yet, and there are many people surrounding the well.
"Who went down to rescue Han Ergou?"
Xing Laoqi replied: "Xiao Ba."
When Cao Biao heard this, he had a bad feeling for some reason.
