Chapter 39: Dad, look, what is that?
Zhou Lin told him in detail what happened today, and Zhou Tingyue's brows immediately furrowed even tighter.
He didn't bother to take off his raincoat, and turned around to walk out, but almost bumped into someone.
When I looked up, it was Zhou Cheng who had disappeared for a day.
His whole body was wet, as if he had been soaked in the rain. The strands of hair on his forehead were flowing down like a stream.
Zhou Lin, Zhou Wei, and Zhou Xinxin were extremely surprised to see him come back, and they hurriedly ran over to hug him.
"Great, brother, you're finally back!"
"Yes, brother, do you know that we are worried about you!"
"Where have you been, brother? Why didn't you come home all day?"
Zhou Cheng's face was a little pale, and he didn't know whether it was because he was cold or because he was in a bad mood.
"Nothing, just going out for a walk!"
But Zhou Tingyue kept looking behind him, and when he didn't see anyone, he suddenly became anxious.
"You came back alone? Where's your mother?"
Zhou Cheng was a little confused by this question.
"Her? How am I supposed to know where she is?"
Zhou Lin hurriedly said: "She has been looking for you for a whole day since you left! During dinner, I told her what happened last night. She must have gone to Zhou Xiaomei's house to look for you!"
Zhou Cheng got angry when he heard this.
"How could you tell her this?"
Zhou Lin scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Aren't we worried about you?"
Zhou Tingyue's face suddenly darkened.
"What happened? What else did you do without telling me?" Zhou Lin hurriedly told him what happened last night. Zhou Tingyue turned around and went towards Zhou Xiaomei's house without saying a word.
When Zhou Cheng saw this, he hurriedly walked out, but Zhou Lin grabbed his arm.
"Brother, you just came back, where were you going? It's still raining outside!"
Zhou Cheng didn't bother to explain more.
"She's here to look for me! I'll go and see for myself!"
After saying that, he plunged into the rain despite Zhou Lin's attempts to stop him.
Even though Zhou Lin was anxious, he didn't dare to go with her. He had promised the woman that he would take good care of his younger brothers and sisters. What if he went with her and something happened to his younger brothers and sisters?
So, he could only pace back and forth in the house anxiously, hoping that the rain would get lighter and lighter, and everyone would be safe!
When Zhou Tingyue arrived at Zhou Xiaomei's house, he saw Zhou Cheng following him and didn't say a word.
She just looked at him silently and knocked on the door in front of her.
Zhou Xiaomei and Sun Weidong had already finished their meal and went to bed. After all, it was raining so heavily that they couldn't go anywhere after dinner, so they might as well save electricity and go to bed early!
Hearing the knock on the door, she shouted impatiently: "Who is it?"
Sun Weidong stood up, put on his clothes, and came to open the door.
He was shocked when he saw Zhou Tingyue and Zhou Cheng outside, drenched like drowned rats in the rain.
"Captain Zhou? Why are you here?"
When Zhou Xiaomei heard him say it was Zhou Tingyue, she quickly stood up muttering.
When he put on his clothes and came out, he saw that it was indeed Zhou Tingyue and that brat from their family.
"What are you doing? You're not done looking for one thing after another, are you? After you finish looking for this one, you look for that one! What, does our family owe you money?"
Hearing her words, Zhou Tingyue's eyes brightened up.
"So, my wife really came to see you. Do you know where she went?"
When they heard that they were looking for Song Shiwei, Zhou Xiaomei and Sun Weidong looked at each other quickly.
Could it be that the woman hasn’t returned home yet? It's pouring rain outside!
Could it be that she listened to her and went to the beach to look for someone, and ended up falling into the sea?
If this is the case, wouldn't she be a murderer?
Sun Weidong also thought of this, and his expression suddenly became nervous.
"She came over and asked us if we had seen Zhou Cheng. Xiaomei said she had seen Zhou Cheng at the beach this afternoon. She must have gone to the beach!"
At this time, Zhou Cheng suddenly said angrily: "I didn't go to the beach at all!"
Hearing Zhou Cheng's words, Zhou Tingyue's brows suddenly tightened, and he looked at Zhou Xiaomei sharply. Sun Weidong also frowned and looked at her.
She shrank her neck in fear.
"I, I was just mad at her for slapping me that day, so I just wanted to trick her..."
As a result, before she finished her words, Zhou Tingyue and Zhou Cheng ran towards the beach like a gust of wind.
Sun Weidong was so angry that he didn't know what to say to her. He just sighed deeply: "You are always looking for trouble. If something really happens to that person, you will also be sent to jail!"
After saying that, he picked up his raincoat and hurriedly followed.
How could the families around here just sit there and wait when they heard the noise?
If this sky is really swept into the sea, it will be fatal!
He quickly gathered the men in the family compound, took tools, hemp ropes and other things, and rushed to the beach!
When Zhou Tingyue and Zhou Cheng arrived at the beach, it was raining heavily.
The sea was extremely rough. If someone fell into the river in such weather, the chances of survival would be very slim.
After all, Zhou Cheng was still young, and he really didn't expect that Song Shiwei would risk her life to find him. Tears immediately flowed down his face.
Looking at Zhou Tingyue with red eyes, she cried, "Dad, I really didn't mean it. I didn't expect her to find me..."
Zhou Tingyue knew that now was not the time to blame anyone, he just wanted to find Song Shiwei as soon as possible!
Searching bit by bit along the river, trying not to miss any possibility.
The rain washed away his vision, making it impossible to see anything clearly. The waves were huge, and Zhou Tingyue's heart was getting tighter and tighter.
Little girl, where are you? Hope nothing happens to you!
At this time, a group of people came running from not far away. Zhou Tingyue thought they were from the army. When they came closer, he realized they were actually villagers from nearby.
The young girl who was leading the group looked at the surging sea and fell to the ground with a plop.
He burst into tears.
"Xiaojun!!! Xiaojun!!! My brother!!!"
Zhou Tingyue still didn't understand what was going on.
The man who looked like the village chief said with a look of pity: "Xiao Cui, please accept my condolences. In this weather, Xiao Jun was swept away by the waves and there is no chance of him surviving!"
But the little girl didn't believe it. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed, crying bitterly.
"Village chief, I beg you, please save Xiaojun! My brother must still be alive! He is only twelve years old, he is still young! He has been a good boy since he was young. In order to treat his grandparents at home, he would come to the beach every day to get medicine!"
"How could God have the heart to take away such an obedient child?! Village chief! Please save him!"
The villagers all felt sorry for Xiao Cui when they saw her like this. After all, they had watched the two children grow up. Xiao Cui and Xiao Jun lost their parents when they were young, and were raised by their grandparents, but their grandparents were in poor health.
A few years ago, the old lady was so sick that she could hardly get out of bed. Xiaojun was a sensible child. Although he was only twelve years old, he went up the mountain to collect herbs and went into the sea to catch fish every day just to exchange them for medicine for his grandparents!
Thinking of this, everyone's face was filled with regret.
At this time, Sun Weidong also rushed over with people from the family compound.
Looking at the surging sea, everyone felt deeply moved.
Judging from the situation, if Ting Yue's young wife was really swept away by the waves, she would be in great danger!
At this moment, Zhou Cheng suddenly pointed at a reef on the sea and shouted: "Dad, look, what is that?"
