As the voice fell, a woman of about eighteen or nineteen years old came over gracefully. She was wearing a white shirt with small blue flowers, army green pants, and a pair of black leather shoes. Unfortunately, they were covered with a layer of dust. People made way for them and looked at Qin Feng and Li Shuwan as if they were laughing at them. The woman walked up to Qin Feng, looked up at him, pouted her lips and said coquettishly, "Brother Qin Feng, why did you come back just now? I..." She didn't finish her words.
Then I heard a shout, "Who are you? Stay away from me. Seeing you like this makes me sick. I haven't had lunch yet. I want to vomit but have nothing to vomit. Go away!"
The girl's shy expression froze on her face. "Brother Qin Feng, why are you like this?" She stomped her feet after saying that. Her eyes were filled with tears, which made Qin Feng want to vomit.
"I told you to go away. Don't you understand what I'm saying? Also, don't call me brother. My mother didn't give me a sister."
The woman was about to go forward and pull at Qin Feng's sleeve, but Ke'er couldn't bear it anymore and whipped out her whip, "slap slap" at her feet. "You don't understand human language, are you not a human being? Who is your brother? Open your dog eyes and see clearly! If you dare to harass my father again, my whip will not just hit the ground. Two deep marks appeared on the ground immediately, and people were immediately startled and quietly stepped back.
"Why, Uncle Village Chief, are all the girls in our village shameless? That's a problem. It will be hard for the older brothers and sisters in the village to get married." The onlookers looked at the girl angrily, as if their eyes were a knife, as if they wanted to cut flesh from her body.
The village chief shouted, "Sun Lianhua, that's enough! You've already arranged a marriage, what are you doing? Old Sun, are you here? Take your daughter home! You're embarrassing yourself." Another villager who was watching shouted, "Disperse, disperse! Everyone's ready to go to work. Don't you want work points? Let's go."
People all left in a flash. The village chief said to Qin Feng earnestly, "Brother, now that you're back, live a good life, raise the kids, send them to school, and treat the people in the house well. Your sister-in-law has had a hard time." He sighed and turned away.
Now only Qin Feng's family was left. Li Shuwan looked at Qin Feng jokingly and said, "Tell me who this is. You call me brother so sweetly." Qin Feng stepped forward, held his wife and said, "I don't know. I don't have a sister."
The children, pulling ox carts and pushing bicycles, ignored the couple and headed straight for the village. Ke'er led the way, following the path of Tiger and Leopard Land to their home. They walked for twenty minutes, crossing the entire village, and another twenty minutes before reaching the foot of the West Mountain. When they arrived at their home, they were stunned. This, is this our home?
Oh my god, there's no yard. The gate is tattered and leaning to one side. The windows are unpasted, letting the wind and sand pour directly into the house. You don't even need to go inside to know that the house is filled with yellow sand. The roof of the cave is covered with weeds, as if a huge hole has collapsed. For a moment, no one spoke, just stood there in silence. The passion to return to my hometown, to my own home, is now gone.
Ke'er's eyes were filled with tears as she said to Qin Feng, "Daddy, our home." Before she could finish her words, she burst into tears. She felt so wronged. She had escaped the confiscation of her home and exile, and came to this 1960s. She had hoped that she would have a warm and comfortable home. No matter how chaotic the outside world was, she could just live her life well at home. However, the sky was filled with yellow sand, and this home was so shabby!
Xiao Si also turned around with tears in his eyes and went to look for his mother. The others were also at a loss. After a while, the eldest brother Qin Muzhou said, "Uncle, let's build a home ourselves." Qin Feng also said, "Yes. Let's dig a new home."
Hu Bao asked Ke'er to enter the space. Ke'er greeted her father, took out tables and chairs, put out steamed buns, a plate of braised pork, and tofu and Chinese cabbage soup, handed them to her mother and said, "Mom, you guys eat first, we'll talk after you're done." After that, she entered the space.
Hu Bao was squatting beside several large boxes. When he saw Ke'er come in, he raised his paw, patted the boxes and said, "This is what I saw in the end of the world in 2031. I saved an old man and lived with him for two years. Before he died, he gave me these, saying they were his lifelong treasures." Ke'er stepped forward and opened a box. Inside were stacks of yellow talismans, and on top was a book called "Compendium of Talismans and Formations". Ke'er flipped through it and saw all kinds of talismans: talismans for exorcism, peace, protection, house-guarding, cleaning, bad luck talismans, good luck talismans, and so on. Ke'er was so happy to see these.
Ke'er first used the "cleaning talisman" to test the talismans' effectiveness. Outside the cave, Ke'er waved the talisman, and the outside was clean and tidy. Smiling, Ke'er walked inside and waved her hand, and the inside, from floor to ceiling, was clear of dust. Ke'er happily shouted to Qin Feng, "Daddy, I've acquired a new skill. I have many talismans that I can use to help me with my work. The one I just used was the 'cleaning talisman.'" Qin Feng scooped Ke'er up and held her high. Ke'er's laughter echoed through the cave. Xiao Si saw her and looked at Qin Feng eagerly. Qin Feng put Ke'er down and lifted Xiao Si up again, spinning him around, and around again. Xiao Si laughed loudly, his laughter infecting the entire family, who all burst into laughter. While everyone was laughing and joking, Ke'er set the table and chairs, brought out the food, and invited the family to eat.
After dinner, the family simply washed up and sat down to talk about how to build a home. The eldest brother Qin Muze said: This is all loess plateaus, and the cave dwellings are all built against a loess hill. Let's choose a loess hill first. The third brother Qin Muzhou said: When choosing a loess hill, you must pay attention to the hard soil and not easy to collapse. Qin Feng nodded in agreement. The second brother Qin Muxiao said: What kind of house should we build? The fourth brother rushed to say: A general's mansion, let's build a general's mansion.
