Chapter 373 Is this door in your house still useful? - After the real daughter's mind was read, her personality collapsed
The little girl was crying loudly.
Water kept falling from the roof, and hail was mixed in with the rain. One hailstone even hit the face of an old man lying on the bed, but the old man didn't move at all and didn't know how to dodge.
"Hey, you old fellow, why don't you hide yourself? Aren't you afraid of being crushed to death?"
"Alas, how could I be so unlucky to have to deal with your family..."
The old lady cursed a lot, but she still resigned herself to her fate and went over to pick up the eldest grandfather and moved him aside.
When she picked up the eldest grandfather, the thin blanket covering him slipped off, and Gu Xizhi only then noticed that the eldest grandfather had become so thin that his bones were just skin and bones.
Even an old lady who looked very frail could hold him.
And the old lady picked him up with such skill that it was heartbreaking.
But the whole house was leaking everywhere, and after the old lady picked up the eldest grandfather, she didn’t know where to put him for a moment.
She looked around the room, first put the old man in a relatively dry corner, then called the crying little girl over, gave her an umbrella, and let her stand next to the old man, especially next to his head, holding the umbrella.
After arranging all this, she went to move the folding dining table from the floor, unfolded it, put it on the bed, and pulled it over the eldest grandfather to block it.
"This way the hail will at least stop it for a while and won't smash your head."
"As for the legs, I can only cover them with a few more quilts. It's a bit uncomfortable when the quilts are wet, but there's nothing I can do about it. It's better than having my legs broken again."
"I don't know when this rain and hail will stop. When it stops and the sun comes out, I'll carry you out to bask in the sun."
"Where's that brat? I told you to go out and splash some water, why didn't you come back for so long?"
The little boy was stunned when he saw Gu Xizhi and the others appear in the yard.
Hearing his grandmother's voice, he came to his senses, turned around and ran back with the empty basin, "Grandma, someone is outside."
"What nonsense are you talking about, you little brat? This hailstorm can kill someone. How could anyone go out at this time of year, let alone come to our house? Who are you trying to fool?"
"No, Grandma, I'm not lying."
“They’re really out there.”
While the little boy was speaking, Gu Xizhi and Gu Jiangyuan had already walked under the eaves.
The old lady had also seen them.
Someone really came.
"Ouch, it's hailing outside, why are you two still walking around? Have you been hit? Come in quickly, come in and stand, don't stand outside anymore."
As the old lady spoke, she was also hit by hailstones falling from the roof.
She groaned in pain.
He looked at the roof, gritted his teeth, opened the closet, and pried down the closet door that was already shaky.
The closet door was already broken, so it didn't take much effort to fix it.
She held the broken door panel and walked towards Gu Xizhi and the others.
"As you can see, the roof of our house has been broken, and there is water and hail everywhere. It is not much different from being outside when you are inside.
You guys use this door panel as a barrier and move forward quickly. The Zhang family’s house in front has just been renovated. Their roof is made of reinforced concrete, so the hail can’t damage it. You guys go to their house and take shelter first.”
"When I heard the old lady cursing from a distance, I thought of the extremely slutty women in farming stories. But now I realize how ignorant I am."
"She is not a shrew at all. She is clearly a nice person who is hard on the outside but soft on the inside. She is a poor person who is tortured by life."
"The old lady herself is not young anymore, and she still has to take care of her paralyzed old man and two young grandchildren. She can't even think about whether she will be injured by the hail. She even pried open the doors of the closets at home to block the heads of strangers. I am really crying."
"What kind of suffering is this in their family? I really hope Gu Xizhi can help them. Otherwise, the old, young, and disabled in this family may fall ill before the weather clears up."
"+1, I hope Gu Xizhi can help them, otherwise I'm afraid the house will collapse."
Although someone has always lived in their house, because there are only these people living there, old and young, and some are paralyzed in bed due to stroke. They are a group of people who cannot earn money but have to spend money, and they have no money to renovate the house.
It's not just the roof that's having problems, the whole house seems to be shaky.
The roof falling off is only the first step.
Hail was also falling under the eaves, and the old lady was hit a few times, but she gritted her teeth and got through it.
But she was really worried about Gu Xizhi and the others, so she kept holding the wooden board, urging Gu Xizhi and Gu Jiangyuan to take it.
"Hurry up and take it. Hold it over your head. The more you can block, the better."
Gu Xizhi took it and held it over the old lady's head.
She said, "Grandma, let me take you to Zhang's house first. This house is no longer habitable. I will take you there to hide for a while. When the weather gets better, I will find someone to help you rebuild the house."
The old lady refused immediately: "No, no, there are so many people in our house, and my old man is like this. If I go to someone else's house, they will think it's unlucky. What if my old man gets into trouble in someone else's house? How can I face their family?"
The very old or sick elderly people in the countryside are reluctant to visit other people's homes, for fear that something might happen to them, which would be a real sin.
It was for this reason that, even though the roof of her house was so broken, the old lady did not take the old man to someone else's house for temporary shelter.
But the old lady suddenly knelt down and said, "Please, when you go over, please take my grandchildren with you. When the hail first came, I asked them to hide in other people's homes, but they didn't want to. I was still feeling lucky at the time, thinking that even if they stayed, there wouldn't be any big problems at home.
I didn’t expect it to be like this…”
"The old man and I are both old, and if anything bad happens to us, we will accept our fate, but these two are still children... I can't just watch them get into trouble... I originally wanted to take them with me after I settled the old man, but now I'm shamelessly letting you take them back with you..."
The bullet screen is full of ""
Are all crying.
"I thought of my grandmother. When she was sick, she always thought of others first. Every time a relative asked her to come over and sit with them, she refused, saying that she was afraid something might happen to her in someone else's home and that it would bring bad luck to her."
"Gu Xizhi, please bring the old lady over as well."
"+1"
“+”
Although Gu Xizhi couldn't see the bullet screen, she indeed thought so.
Not only did she have to go there herself, she also had to take their whole family with her.
"Grandma, is this door in your house still usable?"
