Chapter 181 Arrival
The production team leader’s surname was also Liu, and his name was Liu Renhe.
Almost everyone in the village has the surname Liu.
Upon hearing this, he couldn't help but look Jiang Xiaoxiao up and down. Just by looking at the clothes and temperament of these people who came here, he could tell that they were definitely not from the village.
He should be a city person, especially Fan Jianguo's attire, with four pockets on his clothes, he looks like a cadre.
Besides, he actually heard it.
The Liu couple had fought in the war before, but they never expected that their comrades still cared about them.
It’s a pity for the couple, they left early.
If they were still alive, some of their comrades could have given them a hand and their family wouldn't have to live in this state.
However, in his heart, he had a higher opinion of the Liu family. It seemed that Liu Guizhi and her two younger siblings would have an easier life in the future. How could he not help such relatives?
Anyway, the people were there, they came to my house to see me, and they even drove their car to my door.
For this reason alone, this relative takes them seriously.
Liu Guizhi was stunned. How did it become their family... ?
But she didn't say anything because she couldn't ruin the show.
"Oh, you are really late. The couple has been gone for more than three months. The family is still so pitiful! Come on, come inside and talk, come on inside and talk, it's cold outside."
Liu Renhe seemed more like the host than Liu Guizhi, and invited everyone into the house.
They all look like cadres. If we don't invite these people in,
His job as the production team leader is totally inadequate.
However, it was not convenient for him, the captain, to stay here alone, so Liu Renhe sent them into the house and left.
Liu Guizhi then remembered and quickly called everyone into the house while holding her child. When she entered the house, she saw that except for her eight-year-old sister, her brother was not at home.
In this way, the eight-year-old sister Liu Guiqin was also lying on the bed. Looking at her appearance, she was sniffing and the tip of her nose was red. She must have a cold.
The child was so sick that he lay in bed unable to get up. Seeing that his sister also looked listless, he opened his eyes and softly called "sister", then fell asleep again.
Liu Guizhi then became anxious.
Once you enter the room you can feel how cold it is.
No wonder the children caught a cold. These two children don’t know how they are getting through the day. After all, there have been no adults at home for the past three months.
By the time she received the letter, she hurried back, but it was already too late.
Because her mother-in-law was afraid that her natal family would make decisions for her, she intercepted all the news from her natal family, and the villagers sided with her.
Liu Guizhi didn't make it to the time when her parents passed away, and when she came back she found her younger brothers and sisters in this state. She was so moved that she burst into tears.
I was afraid that if something happened to my sister due to illness, I would not be able to face my deceased parents.
Jiang Xiaoxiao sighed. What's the point of just crying out of anxiety? If she didn't find a way to raise the temperature in the room, she would have to get some medicine for the child.
Looking at how simple the home is, you can tell that these two children are living a hard life.
"Uncle, Brother Song, you should hurry up and help get some firewood and find the child. Although the snow is beginning to melt, who knows what the situation is like on the mountain! Besides, it's too cold in this room. If we don't light the kang, Pingping might get sick here today."
Jiang Xiaoxiao could only make arrangements. Her uncle was not an outsider, so she had no psychological burden in ordering him around.
Fan Jianguo took a look around the room and realized that indeed, the life these children were living was truly miserable.
Moreover, there was no firewood piled in the yard. There was only a small amount of firewood piled against the wall. I guess the two children didn't dare to build a kang in the house in order to save firewood for cooking. If there was no kang in this weather, people would be frozen to death.
Don't think that spring won't freeze you to death. The temperature here can still drop below 10 degrees Celsius in spring.
Song Moting pulled Fan Jianguo away.
We have to light the kang in the room, otherwise Jiang Xiaoxiao will get sick soon.
Liu Guizhi reacted only then. She hurriedly put the child on the kang and found a quilt to wrap the child.
Then he hurriedly lit a fire and boiled some ginger soup for his sister.
There is no doctor in their village, so even if they want to take their sister to see a doctor, it is impossible now.
Jiang Xiaoxiao watched Liu Guizhi busy herself and quietly took out a bottle of something.
In addition to making dried peaches from her own trees, she also made peach juice.
The only thing she knew was that the peaches in her space could cure all diseases. She couldn't just eat and use as much as she could and then wait for the results next time. That was too passive.
As long as the tree bears peaches, Jiang Xiaoxiao will try her best to make them into semi-finished products and preserve them, so that the tree can continue to bear peaches.
Liu Guiqin was already dizzy from the fever, and she only knew that she was drinking some sweet, cold liquid.
He didn't care what it was, he just drank it down and then fell into a deep sleep again.
When Liu Guizhi came in with the ginger soup, she saw that her sister seemed to be in much better condition.
It doesn't feel that burnt either.
But I still drank the ginger soup.
Seeing that the situation seemed to be much better, she felt relieved.
Looking at the bare walls of the house, I felt desolate. My parents had only been gone for three months and the house had become like this. I knew it was the relatives who had moved away all the things in the house.
Even though their family was poor, it was not to this extent.
She didn’t know how her younger brother and sister had survived the past three months, so she looked around in the kitchen.
There were less than 3 pounds of cornmeal, and nothing else.
Looking at Jiang Xiaoxiao at this moment, she was really grateful in her heart. If she hadn't met Brother Fan on the road, she wouldn't have met Jiang Xiaoxiao and the others.
They are really good people.
If an outsider could help them so easily?
The 50 kilograms of food they brought back were enough for their family to eat until the beginning of spring.
The only thing they are worried about is whether they can return to the village with their household registration. If they can’t return to the village, they will have no food.
She and her child had no food rations, so how could the little food her sister and brother had be enough?
How can I live from now on?
They, the rural people, rely on earning work points and food rations in the production team. If she doesn't even have this channel, she will be really in the dark. What else can she do except die?
When she thought of this, Liu Guizhi couldn't help but sigh.
The villagers are very particular about this. A daughter who is married off is like water spilled. Especially for them, their married daughters have their household registration moved out and there is no such thing as them returning to the village. If the team leader disagrees, then she will never be able to settle down in the village.
Don’t even think about earning work points or food rations.
But the production team leader Liu Renhe is not an easy person to talk to.
Her parents have already gone, so it would be difficult for her to go and talk to the captain about this matter.
Liu Guizhi's brows were furrowed in worry.
Why is life so difficult?
