But no matter how hard the patriarch shouted, old man Zhao lying on the kang did not respond to him. Just listening to it, I felt extremely tired. I tried to speak several times but found that I could hardly make a sound.
Old man Zhao was panicking. He was so weak that he was afraid he was really going to die. The clan leader was also very upset. How could he not be sad when he saw his own brother dying?
The clan leader secretly hated that Sun was a nuisance and should have been divorced earlier.
"Why isn't Zhao Dawen here?" Besides Sun, the other bastard who killed his brother was Zhao Dawen.
"The third brother sent someone to pick him up yesterday, but I don't know why he hasn't appeared yet." He went yesterday and hasn't returned today. Could something have happened?
Speak of the devil, here comes the man who came to pick up Zhao Dawen.
"Master, we didn't find the master."
"Is there no one in the place he rents?"
"No, we asked the neighbors around us and heard that since Miss Ruxin passed away, they moved away not long after. No one knows where they moved to. We asked around all night last night and again this morning but still couldn't find out. We were afraid that the master would be worried, so we just came back first."
Everyone in the room was silent. It was all over. My eldest brother (uncle) had moved and no one knew where he had gone. The school was on holiday. The county town was not big, but also not small. Where could we find anyone?
Without thinking, Zhao Dashu could guess that he must have sold his daughter for money and bought the house.
The clan leader was also confused. Couldn't Zhao Dawen be more reliable? Why didn't he tell his family about his residence? Isn't he afraid that he won't be able to find others when he gets in trouble? A scholar like him only knows how to do petty thefts every day.
"What if we can't find him? Your father can't just wait for him forever."
The old doctor also said, "We must find someone who can help. No one knows how long the old man can last." Every time he took his pulse, his blood and energy became two points weaker.
Everyone in the room was racking their brains to figure out how to find that person, but they couldn't figure out the reason.
"Dad, second uncle, didn't my aunt say she saw someone from our village selling candy last time? Maybe someone from our village has run into her in the county town. Ask where she ran into her. We can send more people to try to find her in that area."
"Yes! Xiaoyu is right!" The clan leader thought this method was feasible. "I will go out and ask around now. I will let you know when I have news."
The third brother's last wish was to see his eldest son, and he had to fulfill it. When he went out, he looked at Old Sun with extremely cold eyes. Old Mrs. Sun lowered her head, not daring to look at her uncle. She had always been afraid of him, and now she was even more afraid of him.
They spent the night on Li's kang last night, and they still have to stay in the old house tonight.
"Mom, send someone to say hello to grandpa. No matter what, they have to come to see grandpa, and Xiao Lei has to come as well."
"I know. Actually, what the old man needs now is to rest and recuperate. Look at how you and I have been going back and forth today. He has never rested."
"There's nothing we can do, that's how people are." Grandpa didn't say he wouldn't see guests, and neither did Second Uncle. This afternoon she heard Second Uncle's wife ask Dazhuizi to notify her parents' home, so Grandpa and the others would have to come as well.
Zhao Xiaoyu was a little worried. They had cooked so much meat and were afraid they wouldn't be able to eat it this year.
"Tell your family to send us some food and drink today. We can still eat now. If we don't eat every day, our bodies will not be able to bear it."
"Well, the cooks in the kitchen should come over too. I see that none of you like to use your chopsticks for the food cooked by your second aunt."
