Around 3:00 PM, the snow was a little lighter, but still falling...
Finally, two ox carts appeared in the distance, loaded with luggage, and a group of snowmen slowly following behind the carts.
Chu Xi couldn't wait to run out of the yard, put on the small bag she had prepared, and ran straight to the village entrance.
Little Stone and Little Gray were also left in the house. After all, it was too cold outside and there was a kang in the house.
Although it was snowing, some people were born to love gossip. Even in such heavy snow, there were still several people standing under the eaves of Aunt Li's gate at the village entrance, chatting. I wonder if they were waiting for these educated youth to watch the fun.
Soon, Chu Xi arrived at the entrance of the village. He didn't dare to rush to the front, but slowly stood behind the crowd, quietly stretching his neck and waiting there.
The captain saw her, but didn't say anything.
"This young wife is a warm-hearted person."
He had asked several young people at the village entrance to help, but Chu Xi had no idea that he had been given the good guy card again.
Finally, two ox carts appeared in the heavy snow, carrying a lot of luggage.
Deputy Captain Shi Daxing was driving the lead car, and I guess he was responsible for picking people up.
The crowd behind slowly appeared, but each of them looked like snowmen, with snow all over their hats and clothes, and even their eyelashes and eyebrows seemed to be covered with ice. Their stiff bodies moved slowly, without any unnecessary movements.
Chu Xi stared at them closely, not wanting to miss any of them.
The first seven or eight people are all young people, they should be the educated youth this time.
Chu Xi glanced at them and stopped looking. A hundred meters behind them, four elderly men in their fifties and sixties were supporting each other and barely holding on to the group. However, they were still walking with great difficulty. Their hats were covered with white frost from snowflakes and their breath, so their faces could not be seen clearly.
Chu Xi's eyes instantly turned red, tears filling her eyes, but she clenched her lips tightly. Fortunately, she was wearing a large scarf that covered her mouth tightly, otherwise others would definitely look at her strangely.
Chu Xi really wanted to rush over and hug her mother and cry. It had been more than three years and there had been no news at all.
Ever since she received the letter from her second brother, she has been waiting anxiously.
However, after looking carefully for a long time, there was no vague shadow of my parents as I had in my memory.
Chu Xi felt a pang of heartache again. Didn't he come? Was he assigned to another village? Or was he still staying in the hospital?
She had been looking forward to this for a long time. If her parents could come here, she could take good care of them in secret.
At this time, the people at the entrance of the village also hurried over, exchanged a few words, and then helped push the cart and supported those who had difficulty walking.
After all, we are here to help support the village's construction, so please don't let anything go wrong.
Chu Xi then hurried over, but after a closer look, she confirmed that her parents were not there. She was extremely disappointed, and her heart sank instantly.
At this time, the couple walking at the end suddenly stopped, rubbed their faces gently with their stiff hands, and looked at the little girl in front of them with a look of loss and even red eyes, and couldn't help feeling pity.
"Little girl, are you looking for someone? There are two people behind us. We were a little slow climbing the slope just now. Why don't you go pick them up..."
Before she could finish her words, only the words "thank you" floated in the distance. The little girl had already disappeared. When she turned around, she had disappeared in the heavy snow...
Chu Xi ran towards the direction she came from like crazy, thinking it must be her parents.
Tears flowed from her eyes involuntarily and slowly flowed over her lips.
"Woo..." She finally burst into tears, a cry that she couldn't suppress but finally couldn't hold back, a heart-wrenching cry that drifted away in the heavy snow. She cried for her relatives who left her one by one in her previous life, and for her parents who suffered in this life. She cried very sadly, and her tears were like pearls without a string.
An unprecedented feeling of loneliness surged into her heart. In her previous life, she had wandered alone for fifteen years, filled with longing for her loved ones, but she slowly let go.
In this life, I finally got news from my relatives, but it was still in vain.
She ran very far but still didn't see the figure she expected. She couldn't help feeling sad and tears silently rolled down her cheeks.
She collapsed directly onto the mountain road and sat there, in the snow and ice, like a wounded animal, curled up in the snow and crying.
