Cai Xiaohui was stunned for a moment. Is there no way back?
It's so tragic. His whole family is dead. No wonder he has to live on the streets and steal food.
After swallowing the last bite of rice, Qiao Jianguo finally said some of what he could say under Cai Xiaohui's questioning.
He just said that he went to Jeju, and his money and luggage were stolen as soon as he got off the train. It was not easy for him to come back, and he couldn't find a job. He was not feeling well and was so hungry that he stole the buns.
A trace of pity flashed in Cai Xiaohui's eyes, "Well, it sounds pretty miserable."
"Well, stay here first, and come out to look for me when you are well. This is an abandoned warehouse of the lumber mill, and no one usually comes here, but there are a lot of mosquitoes and rats."
Qiao Jianguo hummed, "Having a shelter from the wind and rain is already very good, I have no right to be picky. If you hadn't picked me up, I might have died on the street.
Don't worry, I, Qiao Jianguo, keep my word. I will definitely return your money to you. ”
Cai Xiaohui walked out with a flashlight, "Alright, alright, you take a rest first, I have to go out, otherwise my parents will nag me again."
Qiao Jianguo managed to escape from despair, but his family was in turmoil because of him.
Lai Gou got home, washed and ate his fill. He slept so soundly that he didn't even notice the earth exploding. Only after he had finished his sleep did he hear the noise outside.
Lai Gounai saw her grandson got up and reluctantly opened the door.
Qiao Jiuwang looked haggard, and the first thing he said when he entered the door was, "Lai Gou, how did my Jianguo die? Where is his body?"
Lai Gou was stunned for a while before he came to his senses, "No, who said Jianguo was dead?"
Everyone in Erqiangpao's family had red eyes.
Lai Gou didn't dare to lie and roughly told what had happened to the three of them over the past few months.
"We just arrived in Jeju, and before we even left the train station, we had nothing left. We had nowhere to stay and didn't know anyone, so we could only wander around the train station. But people can't go without food every day. We were cold and hungry, so we had no choice but to steal other people's luggage."
Uncle Cheng cursed on the spot, "You are such a lifeless bunch, you think things are the same outside as at home, how dare you do such sneaky things."
Aunt Cheng asked anxiously, "Are you sure? They just stole a few bags of luggage. We can just pay them back no matter how much it costs. How can they be sentenced like this?"
Yesterday afternoon, they took the letter sent by the government to show to the branch secretary. The branch secretary looked at the seal on it and said it was authentic.
Lai Gou said, "I don't know either. It seems that there has been a severe crackdown recently. All the sentences were very high. Someone robbed a student of one dollar and was sentenced to ten times the fine. I heard that there was another person who found a screw on his body, but people insisted that he was a bicycle thief and was shot."
Aunt Cheng's loud cries were heard in the house, and Qiao Jiuwang asked impatiently about Qiao Jianguo's whereabouts.
Speaking of Qiao Jianguo, Lai Gou was still very angry.
He was a traitor. He said that we would live and die together, but he ran away, leaving me alone to go home and face my fellow villagers.
"He was still alive when I came back, and I don't know if he's dead or not now. I carried him all the way back from Jeju, but he was too embarrassed to see you, so he ran away while I was buying the ticket. He was already half dead by then, and was sick and confused. He had no money or anything on him. Even if he wasn't dead before, he's probably dead now."
Qiao Jiuwang clenched his fists, "Where exactly did it spread?"
Even if I can't stand it, he is still my own son and I can't just ignore him.
Lai Gou said bluntly, "It's right over there at the station. I advise you not to look for it. You'll have to bury it if you find it. If you find it, you might as well be reborn with Aunt Lei."
The grandmother who always loved her grandson slapped her eldest grandson on the head and said, "If you can't speak, don't speak. Just answer whatever I ask you."
After sending the two families off, Lai Gou realized it belatedly, "Grandma, why do I feel like Uncle Cheng and Aunt Cheng are going to eat me?"
The lazy grandma glared at her grandson fiercely, "You stupid thing, you better keep your tail between your legs for the time being. Her mother is not dead yet, but her son is dying, and you still want her to smile at you?"
