After crying, shouting, and yelling, Wen Xi's voice was finally hoarse and she couldn't utter a single word. She just held Mao in her arms in silence.
Ye Erniang didn't say anything, she just stayed silently by Wen Xi's side.
Seeing Wen Xi finally calm down, he went to each room to check, and then came back with a frown:
"Your brother and Xiaoya are not here."
Mo'er? Oh, and Mo'er!
Wen Xi suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen her younger brother yet. She quickly got up and searched every room and the entire yard.
No one, how could there be no one?
"Mo'er...Xiaoya...Mo'er...where are you?"
"Mo'er...Xiaoya..."
"Gu Shengmo...where are you? My sister is back. Where are you?"
After shouting many times without receiving any response, Wen Xi knelt on the ground again in despair.
"elder sister……"
Suddenly, a very small sound was heard, and Wen Xi excitedly crawled towards the sound.
Ye Erniang also ran over. The sound came from the cellar in the main hall. Ye Erniang pried open the floorboards and opened the iron mesh. She found a tinder and climbed down, then carried Gu Shengmo back up.
As soon as Gu Shengmo saw Wen Xi, he rushed over and cried:
"Sister, sister, why did you come back just now? Why did you come back just now? So many bad guys broke in. Mom is dead, my aunt is dead, everyone is dead. Woo woo... they are all dead."
For a moment, Gu Shengmo even hated his elder sister, because in his heart, his elder sister was the most powerful person in the world. If his elder sister was at home, no one would have died. It was only many years later that Gu Shengmo realized that his elder sister was also an ordinary person. At that time, he was very glad that his elder sister was not at home.
Wen Xi hugged Gu Shengmo and asked:
"What on earth happened? I was just away for one night, why did this happen?"
"Early this morning, a group of people broke in, all holding large knives. Grandma Du happened to be at the door, and when she heard the noise, she pushed against the door to prevent them from coming in. When she heard them banging on the door, mother and the others stuffed me into the cellar and told me to wait for you inside. They wouldn't let me speak. Later, just as the cellar lid was closed, I heard them breaking in. Then Grandma Du screamed. Later, I heard the shouts of my aunt and Brother Qiangzi. But mother didn't scream. I only heard her shouting one sentence over and over again."
Wen Xi asked silently, what did mother shout?
Gu Shengmo said calmly:
"Ximo, live well!"
It is obvious to whom this is addressed.
Gu Shengmo raised his head calmly, covering his chest:
"Sister, Mo'er feels so painful here, I want to go find mother."
Wen Xi realized that her brother hadn't shed a single tear since coming up. He was so calm that it was a little scary. Trembling, she leaned towards his face:
"Mo'er...what's wrong with you? What happened to you?"
Gu Shengmo shook his head:
"I just feel like I shouldn't be alive. I should be with Mom."
"Mo'er, okay, okay, let's go find mother together. I'll accompany you."
Gu Shengmo wanted to die. Although he didn't understand what death was, it didn't mean he wanted to drag others to death. Moreover, before his mother died, she kept repeating to Ximo to live well, which was deeply engraved in his mind.
Gu Shengmo suddenly hesitated.
Ye Erniang knelt down angrily, holding one of them tightly in her arms, and said angrily:
"Take that shit back. If your mother knew you were such complete bastards, she would have thrown you into the water the moment you were born. If they knew the child they risked their lives to save was actually seeking death, they would probably die with regrets. Your life was given by your mother, and she doesn't want you to die, so just live well for me."
Ye Erniang roared angrily and held them tightly to prevent them from seeing her tears bursting out.
Although he said harsh words, his heart was already extremely fragile, just as fragile as when his own child left him.
