Chapter 122
There are many mountains and waters in the boundary of Shouling, and it has been raining for a long time. Although the rain is not heavy, the stream on the mountain has become a little rough. Guzhuang is located in a mountain depression. Mud flowed horizontally, logs rolled down the mountain, and sharp rocks emerged from time to time to stab people.

Wang Ermu drove the car to send Gu Xiang back to the village, and when he was far away, he saw that most of the house in his family had collapsed.

Gu Xiang looked around but saw no one, so he wiped the water off his face, and through the rain and mist, he saw a lot of sundries piled up on the rocks, and the water was still running.

Most of them were tattered bed boards, a few chairs, and the book box used by Goro was also hanging on the branch of a tree, precariously.

Zhou Dongniang saw Gu Xiang from a distance, hesitated for a while, and didn't care about the awkwardness between the two families, she hurried over and said, "San Niang, your house suddenly collapsed the night before, fortunately, Doctor Zhang is nearby. I took a few young men from the village to dig out everyone. No one died, it was the old man, the old lady hurt her waist and legs, and couldn’t move. Your aunt was knocked on the head. shelter in the temple."

"Sanniang, it's good that you are back. The crops in the fields have failed in recent years. Once the rent is handed in, every household has no food left. Your family's food has also been washed away. Yesterday I heard that your mother went to I caught a lot of aquatic plants in the river and went back to eat them, hey, how can I eat them!"

Gu Xiang: "..."

With a jolt, she suddenly woke up, and suddenly felt that the farming script that she had slandered several times finally fell on her head with a bang.

It's just that the house collapsed at the beginning, living in a ruined temple, living with wild vegetables, no, I'm afraid even the wild vegetables for living will be gone... It's too desolate.

Zhou Dongniang also looks dark and thin, with protruding bones and sunken eye sockets. The Zhou family is considered a wealthy family in the village. Except for a few families such as the Liu family, most of the farmers are far less wealthy than their Zhou family. In this way, Zhou Dong's mother looks too thin, which shows that the village is really not doing well recently.

It seems that the pear paste business she worked hard to promote did not have a big effect after all.

But Gu Xiang still breathed a sigh of relief.

With a smile on her face, she politely thanked Zhou Dongniang, and drove to the ruined temple with Wang Ermu.

Sure enough, after walking for a short time, they saw crowds of people in the ruined temple, and one of them was walking on the mountain road with firewood on his back, and it was Gu Laoshi.

Gu Xiang felt more at ease in an instant.

When she first came here, she didn't care about anything but her own life.

It was only later that she gradually had other things in her heart. She was very attached to the family affection her parents gave her, and even towards the rest of the Gu family, she also felt a little fond of the house.

Since Gu Xiang got the body from the original owner and was able to survive, she was grateful in her heart. She hoped that the original owner's parents and relatives could live well, and this was considered a deep gratitude.

Gu Zhuang's downfall in the plot has always been a knot in Gu Xiang's heart. He doesn't show it on the surface, but he always thinks about it in his heart.

Looking at it now, maybe the catastrophe has passed, at least a hurdle has been passed, and I only hope that there will be no more troubles.

"Sanniang."

As soon as Gu Xiang lifted the curtain of the car, Gu Laoshi didn't know if it was Fu Ling's heart. He looked up and saw her, with endless joy on his face, and rushed to the side of the car in three steps at a time, with tears rolling down: "You have been in trouble these days. Where did I go, I scared my father to death."

Gu Laoshi didn't see anything else in his eyes. He only looked at his daughter, left and right, worried in his heart, "I've lost weight, I've lost a lot."

Wang Ermu took all the firewood with great foresight, and let the father and daughter have a good talk.

Gu Xiang smiled wryly, she wasn't skinny, she ate well these days, even in Ningwa village, she also ate and drank well, she was clearly nourished very well, her skin was radiant, and Gu Laoshi's face was haggard.

The mountain road was difficult, so she just jumped out of the car and walked with her father.

"A while ago I heard that the brave army bombed the camp, and most of the barracks were on fire, and the flames were soaring into the sky. What's gone."

Gu Laoshi had lingering fear on his face.

"If it weren't for the letter you sent me earlier, the old Dutou has been comforting me, saying that you are going out with the soldiers, maybe there is something important, and there will be no problem with safety. I, I really...you If something happens, how will your mother and I live."

Gu Xiang couldn't help showing a trace of apology on his face.

"Dad, do you know how the camp is doing now?"

"I heard that the situation has stabilized."

Gu Laoshi sighed, "I don't know the specifics. Shouling County is closed and no entry or exit is allowed. The surrounding villages have been attacked by bandits. Our village also has a group. There are not many people. Let Zhou Dong lead A few strong boys in the village were pushed back, and in the end they were only given a few bags of miscellaneous grains."

"Nowadays the whole village is worried, but don't worry, our family is fine. When you sent a letter saying that there were a lot of thieves outside, I thought about it and moved the family's most important money and food to the mountains. It can take a while."

While talking, Gu Xiang came to the front of the ruined temple. Looking at it, it turned out that they were not the only ones, and there were many people crowded in the three halls of the ruined temple.

There are some familiar faces and many new ones.

"They are all relatives from different families. There are too many people to live in the village. Although the location is dilapidated, fortunately it can shelter from the wind and rain."

Gu Laoshi sighed, "Don't worry, our house can still be lived in after repairing it. After a few days, the weather will be better, and my eldest brother and I will go back to repair the house."

"Speaking of which, when our house was repaired back then, we used good materials. Your grandpa didn't pay much attention to it. Why did someone else's house have nothing to do, so something happened to our house."

Moreover, most of the entire house collapsed.

He only muttered these words a few times, not daring to announce them loudly.

In today's world, people all believe in the fate of ghosts and gods. If it is said that the foundation of the house is not stable, it is just a man-made disaster. If you want to say a few more words, it will be terrible if people rely on those fates.

There are unmarried daughters in the family, and sons are waiting to marry a daughter-in-law. This reputation is really more precious than gold.

Gu Xiang instantly thought of what An Guogong said to her not long ago.

"It's really... troublesome."

Gu Xiang entered the temple gate carefully, and looked at the old couple of the Gu family. The old couple were sleeping, and their bodies looked clean. Their eyes fell on the old lady Zhang. Gu Xiang was startled. Negative state - a desire to die.

"..."

"Hey, the old man is okay. In the future, his legs and feet may be inconvenient and he will not be able to do heavy work. The old lady is injured too badly. I am afraid that he will have to stay in bed all year round. If there is nothing wrong after a while, I will go to seek medical doctor Zhang and have a look. Is there any other way?"

Just as I was talking, I heard a depressing quarrel outside, "You want face, can you eat or drink the face, or let your son study? My daughter is gone, and only Shiro is left with us. Do you have the heart to drag him down?"

Gu Xiang raised her eyebrows, and it was her uncle, Xiao Zhang, who spoke.
