"I'll take you out of the village..."
Granny Liang leaned on a cane, raised her head, blinked her eyes, looked at the villagers who were ready and spoke.
She had difficulty walking and couldn't help with other things, but she would feel bad if she did nothing, so she thought about following them and sending them out of the village.
Granny Liang didn't want to cause trouble for everyone.
So she was clear about her own situation and didn't think she had to follow them to find Lian'er.
Although she was very concerned about Lian'er, Granny Liang was also very worried because she couldn't find her.
Fortunately, although she is old, there is still a trace of rationality in her mind.
Even if she followed the villagers to the back mountain, it would not only slow down the speed of the entire team. Although the remaining elderly people in Guquan Village were not very old, at least some of them had convenient legs and feet. But now she even needed the help of external objects as crutches to walk.
The road to the back mountain is basically uphill and uphill. Given his current condition, not to mention going uphill or uphill, just walking on a flat road for a little longer would cause his legs to not be able to bear it.
When Granny Liang was young, she always didn't believe in superstition and thought it was no big deal. Besides, at that time, they had to rely on their cheap labor and sweat to take care of their food, so they didn't have much time to take care of their leg injury.
Over time, his legs have become a chronic problem.
When I was young, my strong body didn’t show any signs of weakness, but now that I’m older, those parts of my body that I didn’t take care of before are slowly starting to react. Some joints always feel a piercing pain whenever it rains.
But at first Granny Liang didn’t take the discomfort seriously, until it became worse and worse. Not only did her legs hurt when she walked, but her back, which had been straight when she was young, also slowly became bent.
By the time she realized this, it was already too late.
Granny Liang knew in her heart that they didn't let her go with them because of her health.
Time is running out now, and they wish they could split one person into two. If they want to ensure Lian'er's safety, they have to race against time and rush to find her as soon as possible.
"Grandma Liang, you don't have to go with us. We are almost ready. Let's go out of the village now. You should also pack up a little. It's best to adjust your mood outside before returning to Lian'er's house. This will prevent her mother from noticing that something is wrong.
Although truth cannot be hidden, if we don't find Lian'er today, she won't believe us no matter what excuses we make.
If that moment comes, they won't be able to hide it even if they want to.
"Yes, Granny Liang, you don't have to worry about what's going on here. We will do our best to find him. The most important thing for you is to settle Lian'er's mother before I come back. If she keeps asking you questions, just give irrelevant answers. If you really don't know how to answer, just think of a way to distract their attention."
Two of the old men, who were a few years younger than Grandma Liang, were persuading her to go back to Mother Jiang's house first.
