Thinking that maybe he was still in the town as the old lady said, he withdrew his spiritual sense and planned to check again later.
Until five o'clock in the evening, when it was getting dark, the two brothers still hadn't returned.
Now even the old lady couldn't sit still anymore. She hurriedly asked Old Man Qin and the third son to look for him, to make sure nothing really happened.
It's freezing here and if something really happens, it could be fatal.
Old man Qin didn't dare to delay. He put on a tattered coat and went out.
Qin Jianjun followed behind. If something really happened to the eldest and second sons, there would be so many people in the family who needed to feed, so wouldn't the burden fall on him?
Qin Han was one step faster than them. Before the two of them walked out of the yard, his spiritual sense had already flown several hundred meters away.
I saw the two brothers Qin Jiandang and Qin Jianjun pushing a wooden cart towards home with difficulty.
There were quite a few things on the cart, which were obviously bought with the money from selling potatoes and rice.
But both men had obvious scars on their faces and walked with a limp, but their vital signs were normal.
Seeing that they were fine, Qin Han's consciousness returned to his body.
After a while, Old Man Qin and Qin Jianjun came back, pushing a wooden cart one after the other.
The eldest and the second oldest supported each other and followed slowly behind.
Upon seeing this, Old Lady Qin and the others immediately went out to greet them. Xie Yuwei was holding Qin Han in the hall with an anxious look on her face.
"What's wrong with you two?" Old Mrs. Qin looked at her two sons with red eyes.
If the family was not poor, she would not have let her two sons take the risk of staying up late at night and hiding from the villagers to push so much rice and potatoes to the town to sell.
Now seeing that they are all injured, I feel really bad.
Old Man Qin unloaded the things on the wooden cart without saying a word.
He moved silently to the hall, but his thin back looked very lonely.
He was blaming himself, blaming himself as a father for not being able to support the family.
Nothing he said could offset the guilt in his heart!
Qin Jiandang patted the snow off his body and smiled nonchalantly, "It's okay. It's just that I was on the mountain road last night. The road was too slippery. When I was going downhill, I couldn't hold the cart. I fell a few times and sprained my leg."
"Mom, don't worry, we are fine, let us go in first, I was so thirsty on the way.
The water in the kettle froze into ice cubes in the morning." Qin Jianguo didn't want to worry his family, so he immediately changed the subject.
In the hall, the two brothers drank two large bowls of warm water.
Zhang Xiumei brought a basin of hot water and said, "Look at the wounds on your two brothers' faces. The blood has scabbed over. Wipe them off quickly!"
While the two brothers were washing their faces, Qin Jianjun opened the sack to see what he had bought.
A group of children also gathered together to watch. The family hadn't bought anything for a long time.
There was cabbage and celery in the sack, as well as a small bottle of soybean oil.
During this period, they ate either potatoes or radishes every day and had not eaten leafy vegetables for a long time.
So they bought some vegetables that were easy to store to change the taste.
When the children saw so many dishes, their eyes lit up. In their eyes, these were dishes that could only be eaten during the Chinese New Year.
I bought so much at once, I definitely don’t have to wait until the Chinese New Year to eat it.
"Why are there only vegetables and no meat?" Qin Jianjun asked in frustration after opening several sacks in succession.
Speaking of meat, Qin Jiandang put down the towel, took out a package from his coat, and handed it directly to the old lady.
When the old lady opened it, she found it was a piece of pork that was half fat and half lean, weighing a full two kilograms.
