Chapter 81: Twists and turns 1
I got dressed and went up to play with her. I don't know if she was in a good mood this morning. The little one didn't dodge like he did two days ago. He giggled and made trouble with me.
Uncle Gazi, who came in from outside the house, saw the two of us and immediately burst into laughter: "You two, you two little girls."
I looked at Wang Tingyun, who was giggling, and then at Uncle Gazi, who was laughing hahaha. I nodded secretly in my heart. When I saw it, I saw that it was my grandfather and grandson, both smiling with the same expression.
Since we had to rush on the road next, we didn't stay much. After a quick breakfast, we were ready to set off on the road.
When I got to the yard, I noticed that all the corn peppers that were hanging in the yard had also been taken down, and they were probably put into the car.
Suotian stood in front of the door and looked around at the situation. The driver's door was open. When he saw us coming out, Suotian glanced at a few of us and got into the car.
I originally planned to sit in the back, but Uncle Gazi yelled and piled a lot of chili corn on the back seat. I couldn't adapt to it and would be smoked by the chili powder, so he forced me to sit in the front with Tingyun in my arms.
I originally wanted to postpone it, but I knew that Uncle Gazi knew that the front seat was more comfortable, so he deliberately left it for me and Tingyun, but unfortunately I have some problems with motion sickness. Anyone who gets motion sickness knows that it would be better if you sit in the front passenger seat and have a clear view.
Sitting in the back seat, I will soon feel a strong sense of dizziness and make me want to vomit. I have been driving on the road for so many days, and I have always sat in the passenger seat. Speaking of this, what is quite speechless is that the sun
Neither Yang nor his parents suffered from motion sickness, but I was the only one in the whole family.
After Uncle Gazi closed the door, he turned around and opened the back seat door. However, he hesitated for a while and did not get in the car. Instead, he stared blankly at the house for a long time. The expression on his face was hard to describe. I followed
He looked around the house. It was a very ordinary farm building with nothing special about it. Then he turned back to look at Uncle Gazi. His old face was already showing some reluctance. He had lived here all his life, and the apocalypse broke out.
There is no one in the village, but I still lead my little granddaughter to stay here. Now that I have to finally leave, I must feel very uncomfortable.
Suotian sat aside, looking around at the situation, showing rare patience.
Wang Tingyun couldn't understand his grandfather's thoughts at all, and he was groping here and there with curiosity on his face. I kissed her on the face, turned to look at Uncle Gazi, and said softly: "It's getting late, let's
Let's go now. I don't know when the situation will ease and we can come back here." The second half of the sentence was of course comforting, and Uncle Gazi could tell it.
Sure enough, after listening to my words, Uncle Gazi showed helplessness and a wry smile on his vicissitudes of life. He moved his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it. In the end, he just sighed deeply and shook his head slightly.
My head, the wry smile got even worse, and I got into the car. I didn’t turn around to look at the house from then on, but just replied to me in a calm tone: “I thought I could die here and live here for decades.
House, I’m afraid I won’t survive if I leave this time.”
Suotian started the car and drove forward slowly.
I didn't turn around and said to Uncle Gazi: "How can that be possible? Look at your body and bones, you might be able to live for another hundred and eighty years."
Uncle Gazi smiled lightly and then replied: "Daughter, that's the bastard you're talking about, not Uncle Gazi and me."
Wang Tingyun didn't know whether he understood it or not. Anyway, after listening to Uncle Gazi's words, the little girl giggled and burst into laughter.
Probably because his granddaughter's laughter infected Uncle Gazi's mood, his tone became slightly better now and he said: "Yun Tou'er, you have to remember from now on that this place is our home. Your father and your grandfather
I have lived here my whole life.”
Wang Tingyun sat on my lap, turned his head and stretched his neck to look back at Uncle Gazi, grinning like a fool, probably because he didn't understand the meaning of his grandfather's words.
Uncle Gazi was so amused by her that he laughed out loud, and said in a doting and helpless tone: "What should I do with my little brat? You're so stupid."
Since Suotian and I went around the cultivated land when we came here, we couldn't walk there by car. In the end, Uncle Gazi pointed the way, and we turned east and west for a long time.
, it took about more than an hour before we finally turned onto the road in front of Zhang Hongsheng’s village.
The snow on the road has long since melted away, probably because the weather has been relatively good in the past two days. Most places on the road have dried up, and only some residual snow remains on the trees or some weeds and shrubs on both sides of the road.
The car was driving on the road very smoothly. The sun was shining brightly outside. If the wind that came in from opening the window wasn't a bit cold, I would have opened the window and took a few deep breaths of the fresh air outside.
Because I had taken many turns before, when I returned to this road, I had to pass in front of Zhang Hongsheng’s village. When I noticed that village, I felt sad and thought with emotion.
When we turned into that village, we probably never imagined that so many things would happen and so many people would die when we left.
If we had not chosen to turn in here at that time, how would Old Man Bai and his group continue to live? Continue to prepare to use children to fill the hole? When there are fewer and fewer people alive, what will they do? With only
Do the remaining survivors continue to fill the hole? To comfort someone’s spirit in heaven?
I no longer want to ask Suotian what happened when they rushed into the Zhang family's yard that day, causing them to shoot and kill everyone. After all, no matter what, those people were dead, and since they had all
If you leave, then there will be no point in asking about those things.
Humans are truly the strangest creatures in the world.
A combination of pitiful and ridiculous.
I suddenly remembered what Cao Yu, the author of Thunderstorm, wrote in [Thunderstorm. Preface] when I was at work: "I thought about what pitiful animals human beings are, with a complacent mood as if I could control my own destiny, but often
You are not the one who dominates this world. You are being teased by yourself—emotionally or intellectually—and by an unknown force—chance or environment—living in a small cage with great pride.
, Isn’t it the most stupid thing to think that a person who is called the spirit of all things is just sitting around in a free world?”
After reading this sentence at that time, I just lamented Mr. Cao Yu's good writing style and how profound his interpretation of human nature was.
But at that time, most of them were just thoughts in my mind and words on my lips. At this moment, looking at the lonely village that we were about to cross, I suddenly felt that I really felt the true meaning of Mr. Cao Yu’s words.
the meaning of.
Uncle Gazi has been in better spirits since he left the village. He kept talking to the car window about interesting things about his youth. I tried hard to concentrate on listening, but I couldn't help but get distracted from time to time.
Children probably fall asleep in cars. Not long after the car started moving, little Tingyun tilted her little head and fell asleep deeply in my arms.
In order to save fuel, the air conditioner in the car was not turned on. Uncle Gazi went through the things he had packed yesterday in the back, took out a thin blanket and handed it to me, motioning to cover Ding Yun.
I took it and covered Zingyun and myself with the blanket, then leaned my head on the backrest, took a deep breath, tilted my head and looked out the window. The weather today is really good, the sun is bright.
It makes people feel that their hearts are open.
"When can we get there?" Uncle Gazi in the back row asked Suotian.
"We can arrive before noon."
I also turned to look at Suotian: "Do you know the specific location? It's impossible for the shelter to be located on the roadside."
Suotian glanced at me and said: "If the community is set up as a shelter, it must be the whole area, and we can see it."
Uncle Gazi answered: "Yes, my dear, what's your memory? I've told you before, it's the kind of high-rise and high-rise floors, all of them are, what's it called...Yihe Manor? Or Garden? Oh, I
I can't figure out the name of that Wenzhou. It's almost there." He paused and continued: "The shelter set up by the government must be big, and it has to be seen by people, right? Look at the government in the town before,
Which of the county government buildings was not built by the boss?"
I was amused by Uncle Gazi's words, and wanted to tell him that it was not the same thing, but then I thought about it. In fact, what Uncle Gazi said made sense. In the final analysis, it was still the same thing. ZF's things always belong to him.
