"Third sister-in-law, tell me what exactly happened?"
Gu Xiaoxiao was worried about her father and brother, and also puzzled by the sudden snow disaster.
It snows here every year, but snow disasters are rare.
Why did this sudden snowstorm happen?
"What's going on? It's because that idiot Gu Xianjin won't listen to human language."
At this point, Xie Xiuying got angry.
When it first snowed this year, Gu Guangrong was worried that a snow disaster might actually occur.
More than half of the houses in the brigade are old houses, which may collapse at any time due to the heavy load.
So he quickly went to Gu Xianjin to explain the situation and asked him to arrange manpower and form a team to help the commune members reinforce the roofs and deal with the snow, just in case.
But Gu Xianjin just wouldn't listen. There had been no problems with snowfall for so many years before, but this year it's the first time something has happened.
Could it be that he, a battalion commander, is less farsighted than Gu Guangrong?
He felt that Gu Guangrong was meddling in other people's business, overstepping his bounds, and wanted to take over his position as the brigade leader.
So without any mercy, they kicked him out in front of many commune members.
Now look what's happened, this has happened in the middle of the night. If there are any casualties, let's see how Gu Xianjin explains it to the commune leaders.
"My uncle is far too petty."
Gu Xiaoxiao also heard about this and felt that her uncle was really not cut out to be a brigade leader.
They strive to be the best in their class, all for the sake of their reputation as the brigade leader, to gain praise from the commune leaders, and to climb the ranks.
He does whatever is in his favor.
They never put themselves in the shoes of the members.
In order to prove a point to his father, he disregarded the lives of the commune members.
That's incredibly stupid.
"Okay, that's enough."
Xie Xiuying waved her hand, saying that continuing the conversation would only make her more upset.
Right now, the most important thing is to hope that no one is injured and that Gu Changfeng and the others can return safely.
"Oh dear, my little one is awake?"
Xie Xiuying turned her head and saw that Xiaobao was blowing bubbles with his eyes open.
"Eee-yah-yah".
As soon as Xiao Bao woke up, Da Bao woke up too.
Now, it tilts its head and looks in their direction.
Xie Xiuying and Liu Sanmei stepped forward, each picking up one of the babies to check if they had defecated or urinated.
After changing the diapers, Ruan Qiushui fed the two children again.
The carefree babies drifted off to sleep to the lullabies sung by Liu Sanmei and Xie Xiuying.
Ruan Qiushui stood outside the window, eagerly hoping to see Gu Changfeng and the others return.
But two hours passed, and Gu Changfeng and the others still hadn't returned.
Ruan Qiushui was worried, so she asked Xie Xiuying and the others to take care of the child. She put on thick clothes, carried a medicine box and a flashlight, and went out.
"Fourth brother, why are you back? Where are your brothers?"
As soon as Ruan Qiushui stepped out, she ran into Gu Changshu, who was walking back.
Seeing him all alone, Ruan Qiushui's heart skipped a beat.
I hope Gu Changfeng and the others weren't seriously injured and couldn't come back.
"Third sister-in-law, don't worry, my third brother is fine."
"That's my dad. His leg was trapped under the collapsed roof. He's been taken to the brigade office right now."
All the villagers whose houses collapsed and those whose houses were suspected of being dangerous were moved there.
The brigade office renovated it with bricks three years ago, and it's much sturdier than the mud-brick house.
Moreover, Gu Xianjin even built a firewall to make working in winter more convenient.
It's perfect to gather everyone over there now.
"Dad is injured?"
Ruan Qiushui was anxious and followed Gu Changshu, talking as they walked.
With Gu Changfeng and his brothers all there, how could they possibly let Gu Guangrong get hurt?
"It's all because of saving Uncle San, otherwise Dad would never have been injured."
Gu Changshu gritted his teeth.
He, his father, and his brothers kindly went to their third uncle's house to help them move to the brigade office.
But my third uncle, who was so clueless, saw that the roof was about to collapse and he had already reached the door, but he still insisted on turning back to get his most treasured possession.
His father wouldn't allow it and wouldn't let go of him.
Just then, the crossbeam fell down, about to hit my third uncle.
His father wasn't so selfless as to sacrifice himself for others; he just tried his best to take his younger brother and run away.
Who knew that my third uncle, that heartless man, would use my father as a scapegoat, push him aside, and run away himself.
"When you see your third uncle and his family later, don't help them treat their injuries."
Gu Changshu was particularly petty and didn't want his third sister-in-law to save the enemy who had harmed his father.
After Gu Tuanjie pushed his father away, he suffered retribution. He tripped and fell at the gate, hitting his head on the gate and breaking a hole in it.
As for Qian Cuihua and Gu Zhengwen, they fared even worse. They went to another room to retrieve valuables and were both buried inside. It took a great deal of effort to pull them out.
One was unconscious and had a fever, and the other couldn't use his back.
"Don't worry, your sister-in-law won't save your third uncle's family."
She's fiercely protective of her own; if you bully her family, don't expect to get away with it.
The two trudged through the snow and finally arrived at the brigade office.
The brigade office was packed with people, all looking worried and groaning.
Gu Changfeng was carrying the unconscious Grandpa Wu back to the brigade office when he saw his wife arrive. He quickly settled Grandpa Wu in and then walked towards his wife.
"Honey, did you fall on the way? Are you cold?"
Gu Changfeng warmed his wife's hands in his bosom, afraid she would catch a cold.
If his father hadn't been injured, he wouldn't have let Gu Changshu go and pick up his wife.
"I'm not cold."
Ruan Qiushui shook her head and took her hand out.
"How badly is Father injured? Take me to see him quickly."
Ruan Qiushui did not see Gu Guangrong at the brigade office.
"There are too many people here, so I put my dad in the old clinic."
Gu Changfeng led Ruan Qiushui to the next room.
After my wife resigned, the clinic was abandoned, but the things inside remained untouched.
Gu Changshu cleaned away the dust and placed his father on the hospital bed.
The two pushed open the door and went inside.
Gu Guangrong was still conscious, leaning against the headboard, sighing.
"Father, are you alright?"
Ruan Qiushui approached and, by the candlelight in the room, saw that Gu Guangrong had a furrowed brow and a pale face.
"Dad's leg is weak, I don't know if it's broken."
When Gu Guangrong saw the third brother and his wife arrive, he tried to adjust his mindset and forced a smile that looked more like a grimace.
Thinking of the heartbreaking scene of his younger brother pushing him away, Gu Guangrong's eyes turned red with anger.
All those years of care and support have turned out to be a thankless wretch.
"Dad, don't worry, let me check the situation first."
Ruan Qiushui squatted down, rolled up Gu Guangrong's trouser leg, and examined his condition.
Seeing this, Gu Changfeng quickly shone the flashlight on his leg so that his wife could see more clearly.
"Dad, don't worry, it's not a big problem."
There were no obvious injuries on the legs, only slight redness and swelling.
It's just that the joint is slightly misaligned, so I can't exert any force. It will be fine once it's straightened.
