Chapter 23 Water Footprints
When Sun Jiankang and Ren Jie and I arrived home, we were already soaked in the dunk. We were so scared that we hid in the threshing farm and didn't dare to go back. We waited foolishly for the sun to come out and dried our clothes before returning.
But after the thunderstorm, it started to rain lightly, and the dark clouds were still circling. It was unlikely that the clouds would be cleared and the fog would dissipate today, not to mention that it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. Even if the sun came out, how much strength would the afterglow have to shower us.
Sun Jiankang was so cold that he couldn't stand it, "If you die, die, it's better than being frozen here." As he said that, he got up and went back.
Ren Jie looked melancholy, "My dad went out to work today. I don't know if he came back. If he came back, I would be finished."
Before Ren Jie and I could discuss what to say when we went back, Sun Jian's family had already let out a wolf howling. His father Sun Nieyun carried a stick as thick as an arm and chased Sun Jiankang to scream and ran around the village.
"Damn it, it's so heavy rain, you run around and see if I won't beat you to death today."
"I dare not, I dare not." Sun Jiankang cried and ran while begging for mercy. His father chased him behind his back. Ren Jie originally wanted to go back and have some luck, but he was even more scared to reply when he saw this scene.
"Yun Yi, why don't we go to your house to hide, let's say we'll dig dandelions, and come back quickly when it rains heavily. There are a little dandelions I dug last time in my backyard. I'll save a little more to sell. I'll take it out secretly."
This idea is good, I agreed immediately, "Okay, let's say we'll dig dandelions, and my mother won't scold me. You can dry your clothes in my house before going back."
The two of them decided and said that.
But the problem is that Ren Jie's family also built a house in Shangen. If you want to enter his backyard, you have to go around from the front door to the back. However, you need to pluck up great courage by circling through the front door. If you are discovered by your family, you will definitely be done.
"Or Yun Yi, please help me get it. I'll wait for you here. If my family sees me back, I will definitely not be able to escape today."
"If I don't go, your mother will definitely tell my grandmother. Besides, I don't know where you put the dandelion."
"The dandelion is right behind the cave door in the backyard. You go around the roadside. If you don't help me, it will be difficult for you to explain when you go back today."
The wet clothes were pressed against the body, and the wind came a little, making me shivering with coldness.
"Okay, you wait behind the wheat-grass pile at the intersection, and I ran over after I got the stuff."
"OK."
There is no parent who doesn’t know the child. I didn’t have a single person when I went in to get it. As soon as I came out, Ren Jie’s mother was waiting at the door with her face squeezing at her face.
"Hey, aunt, why are you here?" I pretended to be calm. If Ren Jie didn't come out to explain, I might have been misunderstood as a thief who steals things for a long time.
"Yun Yi, why are you doing with my Ren Jie's dandelion?"
I really can't think of a good reason, "I...I...I...was Ren Jie asked me to take it, and said that I would put it together with me to sell it, so people won't accept it."
Ren Jie's mother looked at me soaked all over, shivering and shivering, and her tone became stiff, "To be honest, you have to go to the mountains with my Ren Jie and Wang Qiuwa today."
Parents all know that Wang Qiuwa is not a good thing and they are not allowed to play with him. However, according to Ren Jie's fucking tone, she must have known about the fact that we went to the mountains and wild today.
"Ah? Wang Qiuwa, I don't know. I went to dig medicine with Ren Jie today."
"What? Go dig medicine, where is Ren Jie now?"
“In my house.”
"What are you doing in your house?"
"In my house... well... ah... Oh, take out the dug dandelions in my house and dry them. The price is good." I thought this reason was quite good.
Unexpectedly, Ren Jie's mother was immediately angry, "What did you say? How could it be dry with such heavy rain? Ren Yunyi, be honest, where is I, Ren Jie, please let him come back quickly."
"It's really in my house."
"Okay, I'll go to your house with you and go." As he said that, he asked me to lead the way.
I believe that Ren Jie must be hiding in the wheat grass pile and watching this scene, so I had to bite the bullet and walk home, hoping that Ren Jie would be more aware of his feelings and run back to my house as soon as possible.
When Ren Jie's mother came home with me, my grandmother was looking for me all over the village and she hadn't come back yet.
"Ren Yunyi, where is my family Ren Jie? Please tell him to come out." Seeing that there was no one in my family, I knew I was lying.
"Well...Ren Jie...Well..."
Ren Jie's mother finally couldn't hold back her anger, "You are not honest, where is Ren Jie? I will complain to your mother-in-law if you believe it or not, and let her deal with you beautifully."
As he said that, he shouted to the surroundings at the top of his voice, "Ren Jie, if you don't come back, you won't come back. You'd better come out now, otherwise you won't want to enter the door at night."
At that time, our children seemed to be very afraid of their parents. Parents would make their children obey after a few words. Even if they were beaten all day long, they would not hold a grudge. Just as parents scolded us, remembering to eat but not beating. Yes, that's true, they still make mistakes next time.
This roar finally made Ren Jie, who was stubborn, cowardly, crawled out of the wheat straw pile in shame. There were several wheat straw sandwiches on his hair and shoulders, and his whole body was as wet as mine.
"You dog thing, get over here." Ren Jie had just come over, but they were slid into the circle in the same place.
Ren Jie raised his head with his hands, grinned his teeth and put his toes on his toes, "It hurts, mom, please be gentle."
While speaking, grandma was depressed and cursed back, "I can't control this baby, I can't help but kill someone. If something happens, how can I live."
"Auntie, you are back." Ren Jie's mother greeted her grandmother out of politeness.
"Oh." Looking up, Ren Jie and I stood together. The two of them were wet. Although they were furious, they were relieved. "Ren Yunyi, please hurry up and ask your mother to take you back. I can't control you anymore. I will call your mother later and ask her to come back to pick you up to Xinjiang."
Now that I know that even though my grandmother said that, she was angry with me, and she would not be willing to let me leave.
Grandma said to Ren Jie's mother, "Ren Jie's mother, I heard that they went to the wild with the boy from our resident (my cousin's name is Yuan Sheng)?"
"I also heard Wang Xi'an's father say that he saw a group of children walking towards Tiger Mountain, where your Yunyi and my Ren Jie were inside."
"Oh, it's good to come back." Grandma said kindly, "It's all children. Don't clean it when you go back, and let's change your clothes quickly." As soon as he finished speaking, Ren Jie's mother drove Ren Jie like a duck. "Your baby is waiting tonight, see how your father comes back to deal with you."
A gust of wind blew, and another tremble, and a sense of fear rose for some reason. There seemed to be two eyes staring at me on my back.
Buzz!
Ren Jie seemed to be blown by the wind, and instantly felt like an ant running in his bones, smiling like a smile, twisting his head, and drooling could not control himself and flowing downwards.
The villagers at the door were still waiting to put on flour, and there were only two people left at home, and they couldn't even leave now.
There were only a few left of the guests, and the cousin then pulled off his work, "How come you come back? I'll go find it."
My cousin was busy for the afternoon and didn't even have time to eat dinner. When my cousin left, no one cooked for him, but his son was important after all, so he couldn't leave it alone.
"Then you go and look for it, this kid can make people angry."
Tiger Mountain has just experienced a heavy rain baptism, and now it has become extremely quiet. From time to time, I hear a few owls crying. The soft soil is now stepping on a pit with one foot, bringing a circle of soil.
At this time, Li Fei and the other two had just woken up from the fright. The three of them were scared by the sudden death god, their legs and feet were numb, and they leaned against the tree and stood for several hours. Wang Wei's head was crushed into slurry by a big stone, and his body was right in front of them.
Such a big incident happened, but these minor children could not bear it. They were uneasy now. What should they do? It would be great if a dream was, but the dream would not wake up for a long time.
Wang Rui, who was a little more courageous, made a suggestion, "Li Fei, why don't the three of us bury him and pretend that nothing happened."
"How can that be done? If the police find it, we can't even explain it."
Dangqiang looked at the two of them and it was dark. "We'd better go back, maybe I'll have a sleep."
Wang Rui suggested, "If you want your family to know about this, we will definitely be beaten to death. It would be better for us to bury him here, so no one will notice it. Besides, this matter has nothing to do with us, and it was not what we did."
Smartness is just a mistake. Master said, is it good to be a smart person? It is not necessarily the best way to be a reliable person.
The advantage of being young is that he is bold and promising, while the disadvantage of being young is that he is not distinguished from the importance of the seriousness. The three of them discussed burying Wang Wei in Tiger Mountain and then going home.
After finishing work, my cousin washed his face, sat in the room to change to a cup of new tea, waiting for the concubine to come back to cook, but waited for the right and waited not to come back.
When he turned his head, Yu Guang saw the photos in the photo frame and his cousin, who was slightly shocked, made a special confirmation. He found that the black and white one-inch photo taken by his son was a bit weird, his eyes widened, staring at him, as if he had something to say.
My cousin took a sip of tea and thought that he might be too tired and felt something was wrong when he saw anything, so he turned his head and glanced at him for a while.
Just after I fell asleep, I heard someone calling "Dad." I suddenly turned over and sat up. My heart skipped a beat. I felt something was wrong. I couldn't say something was wrong.
ah!
There were a few wet footprints on the floor covered by the earthen bricks, and my cousin couldn't sit still. He got off the kang and looked at his son's photo again. His face was on his face, revealing anger.
At this time, the eldest daughter came back and the news was that Wang Wei could not find him.
Chapter completed!
