Infrastructure: I survive in troubled times

"Well! The grandma and grandma in the sky will also point out the way home." Hong Wangyue looked at the stars with big watery eyes and said, "Mother will definitely come back."

Patriarch Yang's black eyes flickered when he heard the words, and he thought of the hemp rope around Madam Hong's waist and the white cloth strips tied around her head. This was a family mourning, as if everyone of them were like this.

Patriarch Yang looked at them firmly and said, "It's true that you won't get lost looking at the stars."

"Ms. Hong will definitely come back." Chen Zhongyuan said confidently.

"Are you sleepy?" Lin Nanzheng looked at him with concern and said, "Your mother will be back as soon as you wake up from sleep."

"Don't sleep!" Hong Wangyue shook his head like a rattle, "I have to wait for my mother."

"Are you hungry?" Chen Zhongyuan looked at him with big eyes like copper bells and asked again, "There is still live fish in the barrel, let's kill and grill the fish now."

"No, it's too dark to go." Hong Wangyue said without thinking.

"No trouble, no trouble." Chen Zhongyuan said immediately after hearing the words.

"No, we'll talk about it when mother comes back." Hong Wangyue sniffed.

"Okay!" Lin Nanzheng nodded when he heard the words.

"How long will it take for mother to come back?" Hong Wangyue looked at them anxiously and asked.

"Oh!" Lin Nanzheng looked at him hesitantly and said, "Soon, very soon."

Patriarch Yang pointed to the light in the sea and said, "Look, this light is fixed."

"What's wrong? What does this mean?" Chen Zhongyuan asked nervously.

"Ah!" Patriarch Yang thought for a while after hearing the words, "This means that we can find the beads, and we won't do useless work."

Lin Nanzheng was taken aback when he heard the words, and then quickly echoed, "Patriarch Yang is right, Mrs. Hong will definitely find the beads."

Several people stared eagerly at the faint light in the sea, their eyes were dazzled by this stare.

"How long has it been?" Hong Wangyue looked at them with big watery eyes and asked.

"I don't know." Chen Zhongyuan blinked at Lin Nanzheng and asked, "How long has it been?"

"I really don't know if there are any more leaks." Lin Nanzheng opened his mouth, pondered for a moment before saying, "Anyway, there is light, Mrs. Hong won't do it for nothing."

"Ah! The light is gone, the light is gone." Hong Wangyue patted Chen Zhongyuan's arm and said anxiously, "What should I do, mother? What should I do?"

"Don't worry, don't worry." Lin Nanzheng said quickly, "Maybe your mother and the others caught the beads, so the light is gone."

"That's right, that's right, Uncle Lin is right." Chen Zhongyuan hurriedly nodded when he heard the words.

"I count the time, it's really long enough." Patriarch Yang followed up and said comfortingly, "I'll be back soon."

Waiting and waiting, even though my heart is like an ant on a hot pot, I dare not show half of it, everyone is anxious!

&*&
In the days and years, I finally saw a faint light in the darkness.

"Look, what is that erratic thing!" Chen Zhongyuan pointed to the flickering light on the dark sea.

"There are again, there are two again!" Lin Nanzheng said happily, "This is Mrs. Hong and the others! It is impossible to have so much light."

"It must be, it must be." Chen Zhongyuan said with a long sigh of relief.

"Quick, make the fire more intense." Patriarch Yang got up to hold the firewood and said, "This way they can also see the fire, and it's hard to go wrong."

"I'm coming too." Lin Nanzheng got up to hold firewood.

"Brother Zhongyuan, hurry up, hurry up," Hong Wangyue looked at him and urged.

"Okay, okay, let's go." Chen Zhongyuan stood up holding him.

"Put me down, let me down." Hong Wangyue patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Okay, come down." Chen Zhongyuan put him down.

Lin Nanzheng and the other brothers who were on duty at night burned the bonfire vigorously.

"Why haven't you come yet?" Hong Wangyue said anxiously, "It's been so long, the light doesn't move at all."

"It's already weak, and it's pitch black all around, so you can't feel any changes." Lin Nanzheng looked at the restless Hong Wangyue and smiled.

"Uncle Lin, why are you so happy!" Hong Wangyue looked at him puzzled and said, touching his forehead and said, "Look at the sweat on my forehead, I'm in a hurry."

"Hehe..." Lin Nanzheng was as happy as a child when he heard this, "The light is still within our sight, which means that they are heading towards us, and they are not going wrong."

"That's right, that's right, I'm not lost." Patriarch Yang said with a long sigh of relief.

"This time, I really waited patiently. They will be back soon." Chen Zhongyuan could finally put his heart into his stomach.

"Hurry up, hurry up, make some ginger soup, and drive away the cold when you come back." Patriarch Yang looked at them anxiously and said.

Lin Nanzheng stood up and said, "I'll make arrangements."

"I'm going to get ginger." Patriarch Yang got up and said.

"No, no, we have alpine ginger here." Chen Zhongyuan waved to him.

"You even have ginger." Patriarch Yang looked at him in surprise and said.

"It's dug in the mountains, and it has a strong ginger flavor." Chen Zhongyuan said loudly with a smile, "You can sweat all over after drinking it, and it's very effective in warding off the cold."

"That's good." Chen Zhongyuan put on the ponytail again.

This time with a goal, Hong Lianshuo and the others finally came back before dawn, staring at the fire light drifting towards him.

"Mother." Standing on the trestle bridge, Hong Wangyue happily looked at Hong Lianshuo who was getting closer to him.

"Are you awake, or just woke up." Hong Lianshuo looked up at his son and said.

"Didn't sleep, waiting for you!" Hong Wangyue looked her up and down with a smile, and suddenly realized, "Mother is wrapped in cloth."

"It's not cold like this, it's cold at sea." Hong Lianshuo said succinctly.

While talking, the boat leaned towards the trestle, "Mother, come up quickly." Hong Wangyue looked at her anxiously and said, "Uncle Lin made ginger soup, you go and drink it."

"Okay!" Hong Lianshuo nodded with a smile, "Back back."

"Hey!" Hong Wangyue took two steps back, and Hong Lianshuo jumped towards the trestle bridge.

"Haiwazi, what's the matter?" Patriarch Yang looked at his son lying on the bottom of the boat and said worriedly.

"Nothing? Passed out underwater." Yang Fan said roughly.

Patriarch Yang nodded clearly when he heard the words, knowing in his heart that the depth was beyond his tolerance.

"Ah! Dahai's ears are bleeding." Mo Sanya looked at Lu Dahai and shouted in horror.

I heard Haiwazi fainted!There is still one fainting on the boat here!

Patriarch Yang heard the words and looked over, "It's okay, just wake up."

"It's all right!" Mo Sanya looked anxiously at Hong Lianshuo and said, "Madam Hong?"

"It's okay, Patriarch Yang said, you'll be fine when you wake up." Hong Lianshuo said standing on the trestle bridge and looking at Lu Dahai who was still fainting.

"This ear is bleeding." Hong Wangyue looked up at her and said, and asked worriedly, "Mother, can you not hear me?"
