Chapter 167: The Tragedy of the World After the Conscription
After answering their mothers, the children turned around and stared at Lin Chenyu and the others.
Lin Chenyu did not ignore other people's questions seriously just because their children were young.
He squatted down, his eyes were level with the oldest child, and answered him, "My grandmother, my sister and I went out to seek shelter with relatives. It was already dark when we got here. I wanted to ask if we could stay in our village for one night."
When the children heard that the older brother in front of them was bringing his grandmother and sister with him, they couldn't help but soften their hearts.
Many of them depend on their grandparents for survival.
At this time, Lin Ke and Old Lady Jiang also poked their heads out of the carriage.
The children saw that there was indeed a kind-looking old lady and a pretty little girl in the carriage.
He immediately took them to the village.
During this time, several children started arguing about whose house the little brothers should go to.
Since the little brother gave them such precious candies, they should treat him well.
In the end, Lin Chenyu chose to go to the older child's home.
Along the way, Lin Chenyu learned that the child's name was Tietou.
I am twelve years old this year, and my father, brother and grandfather have all been drafted into the army.
Her mother, who was pregnant with her younger sister Erya at the time, was so grief-stricken that she gave birth to Erya, who was as big as a kitten, prematurely, and then passed away.
Now he, his younger brother Tiedan, his two younger sisters Daya and Erya, and his grandmother are the only ones left in the family to depend on.
Lin Ke couldn't help but ask curiously: "How old is Erya now?"
Tietou now realizes that the beautiful sister in front of him is younger than him.
But she is half a head taller than him.
Moreover, she spoke in a soft and sweet voice, not at all like the daughter of the richest man Chen who looked down on others.
So he answered simply: "It's been more than two months...but..."
When talking about his sister, Tietou's head dropped.
"But what?" Lin Ke asked curiously.
She was actually a little curious about how the child had survived until now despite being born prematurely.
"But grandma said my sister is dying."
After saying this, Tietou's eyes dimmed.
It is still unknown whether grandpa, dad and eldest brother are dead or alive.
My mother even lost her life because of the trauma of being conscripted into the army.
Now my sister is the hope of all of them.
If their sister is gone, their future lives will be lost.
Because they had no food to eat, and the wild vegetables would be picked up sooner or later.
How will they survive then?
I heard before that many people came out to escape famine. Are they going to flee famine too?
While he was daydreaming, Tietou brought Lin Chenyu and the others back home.
I opened the door and shouted, "Grandma, I'm back."
An old woman in patched clothes came out of a thatched hut.
"Tietou is back. How was your day? Did you pick any wild vegetables?"
the old woman asked as she walked.
When they reached the door, they spotted Lin Chenyu and his companions' carriage.
The old woman was shocked. Where did the carriage come from?
When Tietou saw his grandmother coming out, he quickly explained, "This brother is taking his grandmother and sister to a distant place to look for relatives. Now it's getting late, and he wants to stay at our house for one night."
As he said this, afraid that grandma would disagree, he raised the candy wrapped in brown paper in his hand.
"My brother also gave us candy."
When Old Lady Jiang, Lin Ke and Xiao Wei saw the door of the house, they all got off the carriage.
When the old woman saw that these people were just a few women and children as her eldest grandson had said, she felt relieved.
These people all look very friendly and they probably won't hurt them.
The old woman quickly welcomed Old Lady Jiang and others in.
At this time, Old Mrs. Jiang once again played to her strengths as an old lady in the community.
After just a few words, she became friends with the old woman.
The old woman was actually about the same age as Old Lady Jiang, and Old Lady Jiang was even a few months older than the old lady.
But the old woman looked more than twenty years older than Old Lady Jiang.
Old Mrs. Jiang took the old woman's arm and called her "sister" affectionately.
The old woman was so frightened that her whole body froze.
Lin Ke and Lin Chenyu also laughed a little when they saw this scene.
I haven't seen my grandma like this for a long time.
It just gave the old lady a scare.
Fortunately, Mrs. Jiang has a good attitude and is open-minded.
After a while, the old woman relaxed.
She started chatting with Old Mrs. Jiang freely.
Lin Ke and Lin Chenyu looked around and found that Tietou’s other brothers and sisters were not there.
I thought they had gone out to pick wild vegetables and hadn't come back yet.
Just asked.
Unexpectedly, the three children did not go out at all.
It's because they have no clothes to wear and are all lying in bed.
This not only saves clothes, but also allows you to eat less wild vegetable porridge.
Erya is still alive today thanks to the wild vegetable porridge they save.
Tietou’s older sister Daya is the same age as Lin Ke this year, and is almost nine years old.
My younger brother Tiedan is five years old this year.
Arya is only two months old.
Although in Lin Chenyu's eyes, these are all children.
But in ancient times, boys and girls did not sit at the same table after the age of seven.
So in order to avoid suspicion, Lin Chenyu and Lai Fu did not go into the room to see Tietou's younger brother and sister.
Lin Ke took Xiaowei in to take a look.
Tietou's house is made of stones, sticks and straw.
There are two rooms and two straw huts in the house. Originally, one room was supposed to belong to grandparents, and the other was supposed to belong to Tietou's parents and their children.
The two thatched huts serve as the kitchen and warehouse.
At this time, the room that Lin Ke and the others entered had a large earthen kang, on which two children, a boy and a girl, were sitting side by side.
The boy looked only two or three years old, about the size of a small edamame.
If Lin Ke hadn't known about it in advance, it would have been hard for him to imagine that the child was already five years old.
The girl looked only about five or six years old.
The two children were so thin that they were just skin and bones.
Lin Ke felt that her little Maodou could break the bones of the two children with just a little force.
The two children looked at the pretty girl in front of them with horror and embarrassment.
I forgot to speak.
It was only after Tietou came forward and introduced her that the two children realized that this was the young lady who was staying at their home.
Tiedan looked at Lin Ke and Xiaowei curiously.
He had never seen such a beautiful sister.
Daya looked at Lin Ke's clothes with envy.
When will she have clothes of her own?
It doesn't have to look nice, as long as she can wear it when going out to pick wild vegetables with her brother.
The visibility in the room was dim. If it weren't for Lin Ke's sharp senses, he would have almost failed to notice the little girl sleeping in the middle who was breathing out but not breathing in.
She didn't care about the faint musty and smelly smell coming from the room.
He walked up to Erya in three or two steps.
Seeing this, Daya and Tiedan hurriedly stood in front of their sister to protect her.
The rag covering his body slipped off.
Tiedan completely ignored her, while Daya pulled the rag towards herself in embarrassment.
