Wearing sixty with a male god
Chapter 66
"Uncle, are we here yet?" Xiang Chen lay on his back by the window, rubbing his sleepy eyes and looking out.
"Here, it's cold outside, put on your coat." Song Wenbin took Xiang Chen's coat off the bed and handed it to him.
Xu Hengzhou packed his luggage swiftly, and just as he carried a big bag on his shoulders, Song Wenbin picked it up.He always felt that Xu Hengzhou was still a young man, his body hadn't grown up yet, and he refused to let him do heavy work and carry heavy loads.
Xu Hengzhou smiled helplessly. He is over 1.8 meters tall, but Song Wenbin always treats him like a child.However, his uncle has a heart of love and protection, and Xu Hengzhou is not a person who does not know what is good or bad.
"Let's go!" Song Wenbin carried the handbag on his shoulder, wishing he could carry all the luggage on his back.Xu Hengzhou carried a not-too-heavy bag, and bent over to hug Xiang Chen.
Xiang Chen refused, grabbed Song Wenbin's clothes corner with one hand, led Xu Hengzhou with the other, walked among them, and squeezed out with the crowd.
The stop time at this station was not coincidental. At four or five o'clock in the morning, it was still dark outside the platform.Relying on the dim light, Song Wenbin took his two children to find a hotel.
Song Wenbin took out the letter of introduction from the machinery factory and opened a standard room.The three of them took the keys and went in. The room was not big, but it looked clean.There are two beds, one for Song Wenbin, one for Xiang Chen and Xu Hengzhou.Fortunately, Xiang Chen is small and doesn't take up much space.
The third uncle didn't even take off his clothes, just fell asleep on the bed.
There was such an incident in the middle of the night last night, and the three of them didn't sleep well.During the daytime, the people in the car could not calm down, and was awakened just after falling asleep, and couldn't fall asleep after a few times.After finally staying up at night, I only slept for five or six hours, so I had to get up and get off the bus, so as not to miss the stop.
He couldn't move his hands and feet on the train, so after two days like this, let alone Xiang Chen, Song Wenbin felt exhausted physically.When they arrived at the hotel, the three of them fell asleep and slept until almost noon before waking up.
Xu Hengzhou was the first to wake up. He was afraid that he would wake up the other two, so he simply lay down for a while.
Xiang Chen looked like he was exhausted, he was sleeping soundly in his arms, his long eyelashes drooped quietly, Bai Shengsheng's little face was slightly flushed, one hand was still clutching his clothes, looking It looks good and cute.
Xu Hengzhou stared blankly, his child looks so peaceful now, but a storm is coming soon.On the train, he thought that Xiang Chen would be restless, but he was distracted by the strange pair of mother and son.
Not long after, Song Wenbin also woke up. He turned his head and saw Xu Hengzhou lying on the bed and looking at Xiang Chen quietly. He lowered his voice: "Are you awake? Are you hungry?"
Xu Hengzhou shook his head, got out of bed lightly and put on his shoes, Song Wenbin also got out of bed, and the two took toothbrush, toothpaste and towel to wash up.
After returning from washing, Xiang Chen had already woken up, sitting on the bed with sleepy eyes in a daze.
Xu Hengzhou put away the toiletries, and found Xiang Chen's toothbrush, "Get up and wash up, we should hurry up after dinner."
Xiang Chen stretched out his arms and hugged Xu Hengzhou, then climbed out of bed and ran out with his toothbrush and toothbrush. Song Wenbin shouted from behind: "Go to the corner, there is a bathroom!"
After Xiang Chen finished packing, the three of them went to the state-run restaurant to have a hot meal together.Before Song Wenbin left, he asked someone to change the food stamps. The national food stamps are used in all provinces.
There is no difference in the price of state-run restaurants in various places, but the dishes they provide are different.This state-run restaurant actually had mutton soup. Song Wenbin ordered three servings and ordered two stir-fried vegetables.
He originally wanted to have another bowl of rice alone. After all, rice is not often eaten, and he wanted to give it to his two children.Xu Hengzhou saw that the rice was old rice, and the person at the next table vomited out a small stone while eating, so he told Song Wenbin that they should just eat noodles.
Song Wenbin ordered a bowl of noodles by himself, clear water noodles, average taste and full portion, it would be good to eat in mutton soup.Plus two dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, the three of them ate a round belly.
After their stomachs were full, Song Wenbin took them back to pack their luggage and check out.First went to the county by car, and then found someone to take them to the town.When they arrived in the town, it was already late, and it was not safe to go up the mountain at night, but there was not even a hotel in the town. In the end, Song Wenbin took out his work ID, and the three of them stayed at a townsman's house for one night.
Waking up early the next day, Song Wenbin asked the host for some hot water, and the three of them ate some dry food at will, and then immediately set off into the mountains.There is no place for them to live in the village, and they have to go back on the same day, and the time is very tight.
Before leaving, Song Wenbin left two yuan for this family, and agreed to stay with them when he came back.The host held the money and smiled all over his face, saying welcome repeatedly.
The road into the mountain was very difficult, but fortunately they left their heavier luggage at the townspeople's homes, making the journey much easier.
This walk lasted for half a day, from the time the sun hadn't come out to the time when the sun was hanging slantingly in the sky.In the middle, Xiangchen couldn't walk a few times and tried to hold on, and was picked up by his brother and uncle and walked for a while. After he was out of breath, he struggled to get down and walk by himself.
When they saw the dilapidated thatched cottage from a distance, not only Xiang Chen, but the other two were a little out of breath.
The moment he saw the village, Xu Hengzhou was alright, but Xiang Chen seemed to suddenly realize what going to this place meant to him.
He is not afraid of his identity being exposed, it is a fake, a deceit, and he should be blamed and scolded.As long as his uncle and brother are still by his side, he has nothing to be afraid of.
But... If it is really exposed, his uncle may not be his uncle anymore.
In this time and space, he has only two relatives. If the uncle doesn't want to recognize him and hates him, then he will only have his brother left.
At the thought of Song Wenbin looking at him with disgust and hatred, all the mental preparations Xiang Chen had made at the beginning were crushed to pieces.He only felt chills on his back, and his sweaty clothes were sticking to his body. It was so cold that he seemed to have jumped into an ice hole, almost shivering.
"It's here." Song Wenbin didn't notice Xiang Chen's abnormality, and looked at the small village in front of him with emotion.
The last time he came, he left with a lot of grief in his body.Fortunately, God has eyes, let him find the two children, and when he was in front of Xu Dashan's grave, he could barely raise his head and talk to him.
"Let's go!" Song Wenbin went to hold Xiang Chen's hand. He was in a good mood, and he was in the mood to joke with him: "Take you to see your father, talk to him well, and remember to boast about Uncle! Don't get me down, I don't think so." I didn't take good care of you."
Xiang Chen didn't move, his legs seemed to be frozen and he couldn't take a step.His face was pale, and if he hadn't controlled it, he almost wanted to turn around and run away.
"What's the matter?" Song Wenbin realized something was wrong, bent down and touched Xiang Chen's forehead: "Your face is so ugly, is there something wrong?"
Xiang Chen opened his mouth and almost cried on the spot. He was full of words and wanted to tell Song Wenbin. He wished he could identify himself here, so as not to suffer another torment when he went in.
Xu Hengzhou bent down and hugged Xiang Chen, let him lie in his arms, turned to Song Wenbin and said, "Maybe I'm tired, I'll hold her for a while, and I'll be fine in a while."
Song Wenbin glanced at Xiang Chen worriedly, if he was sick, it would be troublesome in this mountain, "Then why don't we go? Why don't we go back and find a doctor for Chen Chen to see?"
Xu Hengzhou paused for a moment, and said, "No need, it's nothing serious, just rest for a while and it will be fine."
Xiang Chen lay in Xu Hengzhou's arms without saying a word, although he knew that if he said he was not feeling well at this time, his uncle would definitely take him down the mountain to see a doctor.Not to mention avoiding it completely, at least it can be delayed for a few days, but Xiang Chen is unwilling.
Just, that's it!It was agreed to admit his mistakes, how could he not bear the consequences for doing something wrong, he has enjoyed the care of his uncle for so many years, so he can no longer hide it from him at this time.
Song Wenbin led the way, Xu Hengzhou hugged Xiang Chen and followed behind him, patted Xiang Chen's back with his hand, and comforted Xiang Chen softly: "Don't be afraid of the stars, brother is here."
Xiang Chen tightened his arms, he hugged Xu Hengzhou like he was hugging a life-saving driftwood.
The village is very small, and it didn't take long to walk in and met the villagers. When they saw a few outsiders, they didn't dare to approach, and hid aside and pointed.
Without squinting, Song Wenbin led Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen straight to Xu Dashan's cemetery.
He has a grudge against the villagers here. At the beginning, Xu Dashan's wife died of dystocia, and the two children left behind were bullied.Although it was Xu Dashan's younger brother and daughter-in-law who did it, it is true that the villagers turned a blind eye.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no way to survive in the village, how could Xu Gouzi run out alone, and was caught by traffickers in the end.
If God hadn't opened his eyes and let him meet these two children, he didn't know what kind of evil things would happen to them.
He didn't have a good impression of the villagers, but the villagers had an impression of him.In this small village deep in the mountains, some people may never see an outsider in their entire life.
When he came to pick up Xu Dashan's wife and children, he found that they were all gone. He beat Xu Dashan's younger brother Xu Laigou violently and made him lie in bed for several months. The villagers were naturally impressed.For a long time afterwards, Xu's family affairs were the talk of the villagers, and Song Wenbin's identity was known to everyone in the village.
Song Wenbin took Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen to Xu Dashan's cemetery, and the news of "Xu Dashan's comrade-in-arms came again, bringing two people" spread throughout the village.
Xu Laigou was working in the field, and when he heard the news, he thought Song Wenbin had come to trouble him again, so he put down his hoe and ran home in fright.His wife and two sons followed behind. When they got home, the four of them rushed in and closed the door, not even caring about the youngest son who was still outside.
When Song Wenbin beat Xu Laigou hard, his wife and two sons were present, but they didn't dare to do it.Song Wenbin still kept a bottom line and didn't hit women and children, but if they rushed forward, the mad Song Wenbin might not know how to do it.
That time left them with a deep shadow in their hearts. Thinking about it now, Xu Laigou felt that his broken arm was still aching.
Leaving aside their family, Song Wenbin brought Xu Hengzhou and the two of them to Xu Dashan's tomb.This tomb was erected by him at the beginning, and the couple was buried together. Before leaving, he entrusted the nearby villagers to look after him.
He gave a lot of money, and the villagers were honest, but they were afraid of his identity and dared not be careless.When they passed by, the villager rushed over after hearing the news, and followed behind, not daring to speak.
Song Wenbin took a look, and everything was cleaned up. He nodded in satisfaction, indicating that the villagers can leave.
The villagers relaxed their hearts and listened to Song Wenbin walk aside, but they didn't go too far. Together with a group of villagers watching the excitement, they watched Song Wenbin and the three from afar.
Song Wenbin saw that Xu Hengzhou had never greeted the villagers since he entered the village, and thought he was also harboring resentment, so he patted Xu Hengzhou's shoulder reassuringly.
They took out the sacrifices and set them up. Song Wenbin babbled at Xu Dashan's tomb. First, he felt that it had been a long time since he had seen him. Then he pointed to Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen and said, "The child has finally been found, although it was a few years late. Don't blame me. They are all good children, there is no one better than them, I wish they were my own sons, but your son is no different from mine..."
Xiang Chen had already been put down by Xu Hengzhou. He stood in front of Xu Dashan's tomb, hearing Song Wenbin's non-stop praise.He really thinks his two children are good, and he can't stop boasting.But when Xiang Chen heard it, he really felt as if he was face to face with Xu Dashan.
Xiang Chen looked at Xu Dashan's tomb and said silently in his heart: "Hi, my name is Xiang Chen. I am not Xu, and I am not your son, but I have lived as your son for six years. Maybe you know me Here I have to say sorry to you and your wife. You may not be willing to forgive me, I understand, I will try my best to make it up... I just hope you don't blame my uncle, he was cheated by me, he He's a nice guy..."
"Come on, Chenchen, talk to your father." Song Wenbin took a breath, pulled Xiang Chen and said.
Xiang Chen showed a somewhat pale smile, and said slowly: "I'll tell him in my heart."
Song Wenbin thought he was shy, let him go, poured two glasses of the wine he brought, toasted one to Xu Dashan, and drank the other in one gulp.He shed tears while drinking, but Xiang Chen didn't dare to persuade him, so he turned to look at Xu Hengzhou.
Xu Hengzhou shook his head, put his arm around Xiang Chen's shoulder, Song Wenbin needed to vent.
Xiang Chen stood for a while, feeling really uncomfortable.In addition, he drank a lot of water on the way up the mountain, so he felt a little bit like urinating, so he used the excuse of urinating, and told Song Wenbin to go to the side to pee, and ease his mood by the way.When he came back, he might have a showdown with his uncle.
Song Wenbin responded and asked Xu Hengzhou to accompany him.It was rare for Xiang Chen to refuse, he was afraid that he would cry in front of his brother in a while.And his brother is not feeling well, it's not good if his attitude makes his brother sad.
Graveyards are usually in relatively desolate places. Xiang Chen walked outside for a while, found a corner to solve his physical problems, and then walked around here slowly.
After turning around for a while, Xiang Chen felt even more uncomfortable. He found that the place was far away, surrounded by half-human-high grass. He walked in the middle, and the grass leaves kept scratching his face, leaving marks on his face after a while.
He was afraid to go back and talk to his brother, so he quickened his steps, wanting to go out quickly.The more urgent the more accidents happened, and I tripped and fell when I was not paying attention.
This fall was a bit bad, and his hands were broken. Xiang Chen was lying on the ground, and it took him a long time to get up.When everything went wrong, he felt extremely uncomfortable, and squatted on the spot without moving for a long time.
At this moment, someone's voice suddenly came, it seemed to be some women.
A younger voice said: "Hurry up, hurry up, I heard that the soldier is coming again, let's go and have a look."
Another woman with a thicker voice said, "What's so good about it? Didn't you see it a few years ago?"
The young voice immediately retorted: "It's not the same. He brought two people back this time, a young man and a child. That young man is so handsome that you can't find him anywhere in the world. If I hadn't gone back to put things, I would have Follow up."
"Yo! You're so excited, aren't you?"
"What nonsense?! I'm already married and have a baby, so why should I be so excited." The young woman said, "I just want to see him good-looking, so what's the point?"
Xiang Chenben was about to stand up, but he felt uncomfortable when he heard this. After all, the two of them were discussing his brother.So he squatted and didn't move, planning to wait for the person to leave before he left.
The laughter over there didn't stop, and it got closer and closer.The man with the rough voice was still laughing at the young woman. The young woman was annoyed by her laughter and wanted to beat her angrily.
At this time, another voice sounded, it seemed to be an older woman, she stopped the two people who were arguing, and comforted: "What's the fuss, I'm a mother, and I'm still like a girl. "
The woman with a rough voice answered, "That's not true. I took a look from a distance and looked at the age. The youngest one is about ten years old. Maybe it's Xu Dashan's two children. If we want to talk about it, people have to worry about it." You call me sister, do you mind?"
"Impossible!" The young woman immediately retorted: "It is absolutely impossible to be Xu Dashan's child."
The woman with a rough voice was just talking casually, but after hearing her firm tone, she became interested, and said deliberately: "Isn't your elder sister married to Xu Laigou's eldest son, why are you talking for them like this?! Everyone will go!" If you enjoy the blessings in the city, you won’t come back to want the poor house of the Xu family.”
"Who said the house?" The young woman said angrily, "They are not Xu Dashan's sons!"
"Then tell me a reason! Why can't it be?" The woman with a rough voice continued to argue.
The young woman was at a loss for words, and choked out a sentence for a while: "It doesn't look like it, how can Xu Gouzi be so handsome."
"That's not right." The older man listened for a long time, and finally said: "Xu Gouzi's mother is very handsome, Xu is just like his mother."
Ten years ago, Xu Gouzi was still a child. After so long, the villagers don't remember his specific appearance, only a general impression.But Xu Gouzi's mother grew up in the village, and she has an outstanding appearance, which is naturally remembered by people.
The woman with a rough voice answered immediately: "Yes, then Xu Dashan's wife is still a young lady who fled from outside. She is not handsome? She is the prettiest in our village. Xu Gouzi may look like his mother."
"That's not right. If it's really Miss, then Xu Dashan can still go to the army!" The older woman retorted: "All soldiers must be subject to political review. Do you understand the political review? If you marry a lady, the army will not I want him. I told you that she is the daughter of a lame doctor. Didn’t her father treat you at the beginning?”
This woman's natal family is from the next village, and her natal father was the branch secretary of that village. When she said this, the other two were very convinced.
"No, it's a doctor, I remember. It's not easy for a grown man to bring up a daughter and raise them up hard." The woman with a rough voice sighed.
The young woman also sighed: "When I was a child, I was treated by a doctor. She was a good person, but she died too early."
The old woman glanced at her and muttered: "Yes, she died too early, otherwise Dashan's daughter-in-law would not be alone and helpless. She was bullied by the couple while she was pregnant, and finally died of dystocia."
The young woman showed embarrassment. She knew that her eldest brother's husband's family was not good, but her family was too difficult. If her eldest sister hadn't married, several of her family would starve to death.Although my sister was not doing well in his family, and she didn't like that family, but it was considered relatives, so it was naturally embarrassing.
The woman with a rough voice didn't notice the young woman's embarrassment, and asked curiously, "Didn't it be difficult to give birth when you heard that the mountain was gone?"
The old woman glanced at the young woman again, she didn't see her stop her, and she even had a bit of curiosity on her face, so she lowered her voice and said, "Where is it! I heard that it was Xu Laigou and his wife who bullied Xu Gou again." My son, let a child wash her clothes, in winter, the water is full of ice balls. Dashan's daughter-in-law went to stop her, but Xu Laigou and his wife pushed her, which made it difficult to give birth."
A few people were chatting gossip, and they stopped before they knew it.It happened to be not far or near to Xiang Chen, enough for him to hear the conversation of several people clearly.
Ever since the old woman talked about the cause of Xu Dashan's wife's death, Xiang Chen held his breath, and when she finished speaking, Xiang Chen gasped.Fortunately, he is small, squatting in the grass, and cannot be seen from the outside.And the other two were surprised loudly, masking the slight gasp he made.
"What?!" The woman with a rough voice was shocked: "That's really the case, how did you know? Then why didn't you tell that soldier?"
"What did I say?" The old woman sneered, she had already said this, and she didn't need to hide it, anyway, she was not afraid of Xu Laigou's family: "I heard from my aunt and cousin that she is from Houshanwa Village. You know, when I came to visit relatives that time, I happened to see it, and it was she who helped carry Xu Dashan's wife into the house."
She paused for a moment and continued: "The news of Xu Dashan's disappearance has already spread, and the village head suppressed it, just waiting for Dashan's wife to give birth to the child. If it wasn't because of Xu Dashan's disappearance, Xu Laigou Does his wife dare to bully that orphan and widow to death?"
"Xu Laigou's wife is very poisonous." The old woman gritted her teeth a bit when she said it: "She was bad when she was young, because Xu Dashan's daughter-in-law was beautiful and always made trouble for her. At that time, I saw through her. Sure enough. , kill people."
"Then why don't you say it?" the woman with a rough voice asked again.
"I just found out!" The old woman said: "I went to my cousin's house a while ago, she, now she is not clear-headed, she told me in a daze, and told me that Xu Laigou's wife gave her a gift. She is half a basket of eggs, thank her for helping to deliver the baby. How can she deliver the baby, it will be a hush money soon!"
"Didn't that soldier come again?" The woman with a rough voice urged, "Go and talk to him!"
"I won't go." The old woman shook her head and refused: "It's a village, I tell you it's nothing, if you really want to inform, what's the point? How will our family live in the village in the future? Besides, my cousin also accepted Things from the Xu family, don’t let the soldier be arrested as an accomplice. I want to go to you, anyway, if I don’t go, don’t confess me, I won’t admit it.”
The other two women looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't dare to say this, and they laughed awkwardly to round up the topic.
Xiang Chen gritted his teeth with hatred, the murderer covered up the crime, and the insider concealed it and did not report it. In their eyes, human life was only worth half a basket of eggs!
He became more and more afraid to move, his squatting legs were numb and he didn't dare to move. He wanted to hear what those people would say, and he wanted to tell his uncle the news.The villain who killed someone should pay for the innocent person who died tragically!
The woman with a rough voice brought up the topic just now, and sighed: "Ms. Xu Lai is too ruthless, she is her sister-in-law! How can she do it?"
The young woman didn't refute her relatives either. She bit her lip, her face flushed, and said bitterly: "If there is anything she can't do, her own granddaughter can throw it away, let alone a sister-in-law who has no blood relationship."
The other two didn't answer, understanding what she meant.During the calamity year, the eldest sister of a young woman married into Xu Laigou's family and gave birth to a baby girl in the first year. They said that she had no support, but in fact, everyone in the village knew that Xu Laigou's daughter-in-law was picked up and thrown away.The young woman looked for it, but she couldn't find it. The cruel woman didn't know where to throw the child, and she didn't tell her when asked.
This is also the reason why the old woman dared to speak ill of her eldest brother-in-law's family in front of her. Her eldest sister was also not doing well in the Xu family, so she might hate the Xu family in her heart.
"Here, it's cold outside, put on your coat." Song Wenbin took Xiang Chen's coat off the bed and handed it to him.
Xu Hengzhou packed his luggage swiftly, and just as he carried a big bag on his shoulders, Song Wenbin picked it up.He always felt that Xu Hengzhou was still a young man, his body hadn't grown up yet, and he refused to let him do heavy work and carry heavy loads.
Xu Hengzhou smiled helplessly. He is over 1.8 meters tall, but Song Wenbin always treats him like a child.However, his uncle has a heart of love and protection, and Xu Hengzhou is not a person who does not know what is good or bad.
"Let's go!" Song Wenbin carried the handbag on his shoulder, wishing he could carry all the luggage on his back.Xu Hengzhou carried a not-too-heavy bag, and bent over to hug Xiang Chen.
Xiang Chen refused, grabbed Song Wenbin's clothes corner with one hand, led Xu Hengzhou with the other, walked among them, and squeezed out with the crowd.
The stop time at this station was not coincidental. At four or five o'clock in the morning, it was still dark outside the platform.Relying on the dim light, Song Wenbin took his two children to find a hotel.
Song Wenbin took out the letter of introduction from the machinery factory and opened a standard room.The three of them took the keys and went in. The room was not big, but it looked clean.There are two beds, one for Song Wenbin, one for Xiang Chen and Xu Hengzhou.Fortunately, Xiang Chen is small and doesn't take up much space.
The third uncle didn't even take off his clothes, just fell asleep on the bed.

He couldn't move his hands and feet on the train, so after two days like this, let alone Xiang Chen, Song Wenbin felt exhausted physically.When they arrived at the hotel, the three of them fell asleep and slept until almost noon before waking up.
Xu Hengzhou was the first to wake up. He was afraid that he would wake up the other two, so he simply lay down for a while.
Xiang Chen looked like he was exhausted, he was sleeping soundly in his arms, his long eyelashes drooped quietly, Bai Shengsheng's little face was slightly flushed, one hand was still clutching his clothes, looking It looks good and cute.
Xu Hengzhou stared blankly, his child looks so peaceful now, but a storm is coming soon.On the train, he thought that Xiang Chen would be restless, but he was distracted by the strange pair of mother and son.
Not long after, Song Wenbin also woke up. He turned his head and saw Xu Hengzhou lying on the bed and looking at Xiang Chen quietly. He lowered his voice: "Are you awake? Are you hungry?"
Xu Hengzhou shook his head, got out of bed lightly and put on his shoes, Song Wenbin also got out of bed, and the two took toothbrush, toothpaste and towel to wash up.
After returning from washing, Xiang Chen had already woken up, sitting on the bed with sleepy eyes in a daze.
Xu Hengzhou put away the toiletries, and found Xiang Chen's toothbrush, "Get up and wash up, we should hurry up after dinner."
Xiang Chen stretched out his arms and hugged Xu Hengzhou, then climbed out of bed and ran out with his toothbrush and toothbrush. Song Wenbin shouted from behind: "Go to the corner, there is a bathroom!"
After Xiang Chen finished packing, the three of them went to the state-run restaurant to have a hot meal together.Before Song Wenbin left, he asked someone to change the food stamps. The national food stamps are used in all provinces.
There is no difference in the price of state-run restaurants in various places, but the dishes they provide are different.This state-run restaurant actually had mutton soup. Song Wenbin ordered three servings and ordered two stir-fried vegetables.

Song Wenbin ordered a bowl of noodles by himself, clear water noodles, average taste and full portion, it would be good to eat in mutton soup.Plus two dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, the three of them ate a round belly.
After their stomachs were full, Song Wenbin took them back to pack their luggage and check out.First went to the county by car, and then found someone to take them to the town.When they arrived in the town, it was already late, and it was not safe to go up the mountain at night, but there was not even a hotel in the town.

This walk lasted for half a day, from the time the sun hadn't come out to the time when the sun was hanging slantingly in the sky.In the middle, Xiangchen couldn't walk a few times and tried to hold on, and was picked up by his brother and uncle and walked for a while. After he was out of breath, he struggled to get down and walk by himself.
When they saw the dilapidated thatched cottage from a distance, not only Xiang Chen, but the other two were a little out of breath.

It was so cold that he seemed to have jumped into an ice hole, almost shivering.
"It's here." Song Wenbin didn't notice Xiang Chen's abnormality, and looked at the small village in front of him with emotion.
The last time he came, he left with a lot of grief in his body.Fortunately, God has eyes, let him find the two children, and when he was in front of Xu Dashan's grave, he could barely raise his head and talk to him.
"Let's go!" Song Wenbin went to hold Xiang Chen's hand. He was in a good mood, and he was in the mood to joke with him: "Take you to see your father, talk to him well, and remember to boast about Uncle! Don't get me down, I don't think so." I didn't take good care of you."
Xiang Chen didn't move, his legs seemed to be frozen and he couldn't take a step.His face was pale, and if he hadn't controlled it, he almost wanted to turn around and run away.
"What's the matter?" Song Wenbin realized something was wrong, bent down and touched Xiang Chen's forehead: "Your face is so ugly, is there something wrong?"
Xiang Chen opened his mouth and almost cried on the spot. He was full of words and wanted to tell Song Wenbin. He wished he could identify himself here, so as not to suffer another torment when he went in.
Xu Hengzhou bent down and hugged Xiang Chen, let him lie in his arms, turned to Song Wenbin and said, "Maybe I'm tired, I'll hold her for a while, and I'll be fine in a while."
Song Wenbin glanced at Xiang Chen worriedly, if he was sick, it would be troublesome in this mountain, "Then why don't we go? Why don't we go back and find a doctor for Chen Chen to see?"
Xu Hengzhou paused for a moment, and said, "No need, it's nothing serious, just rest for a while and it will be fine."
Xiang Chen lay in Xu Hengzhou's arms without saying a word, although he knew that if he said he was not feeling well at this time, his uncle would definitely take him down the mountain to see a doctor.Not to mention avoiding it completely, at least it can be delayed for a few days, but Xiang Chen is unwilling.
Just, that's it!It was agreed to admit his mistakes, how could he not bear the consequences for doing something wrong, he has enjoyed the care of his uncle for so many years, so he can no longer hide it from him at this time.
Song Wenbin led the way, Xu Hengzhou hugged Xiang Chen and followed behind him, patted Xiang Chen's back with his hand, and comforted Xiang Chen softly: "Don't be afraid of the stars, brother is here."
Xiang Chen tightened his arms, he hugged Xu Hengzhou like he was hugging a life-saving driftwood.
The village is very small, and it didn't take long to walk in and met the villagers. When they saw a few outsiders, they didn't dare to approach, and hid aside and pointed.
Without squinting, Song Wenbin led Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen straight to Xu Dashan's cemetery.
He has a grudge against the villagers here. At the beginning, Xu Dashan's wife died of dystocia, and the two children left behind were bullied.Although it was Xu Dashan's younger brother and daughter-in-law who did it, it is true that the villagers turned a blind eye.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no way to survive in the village, how could Xu Gouzi run out alone, and was caught by traffickers in the end.
If God hadn't opened his eyes and let him meet these two children, he didn't know what kind of evil things would happen to them.
He didn't have a good impression of the villagers, but the villagers had an impression of him.In this small village deep in the mountains, some people may never see an outsider in their entire life.
When he came to pick up Xu Dashan's wife and children, he found that they were all gone. He beat Xu Dashan's younger brother Xu Laigou violently and made him lie in bed for several months. The villagers were naturally impressed.For a long time afterwards, Xu's family affairs were the talk of the villagers, and Song Wenbin's identity was known to everyone in the village.
Song Wenbin took Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen to Xu Dashan's cemetery, and the news of "Xu Dashan's comrade-in-arms came again, bringing two people" spread throughout the village.
Xu Laigou was working in the field, and when he heard the news, he thought Song Wenbin had come to trouble him again, so he put down his hoe and ran home in fright.His wife and two sons followed behind. When they got home, the four of them rushed in and closed the door, not even caring about the youngest son who was still outside.
When Song Wenbin beat Xu Laigou hard, his wife and two sons were present, but they didn't dare to do it.Song Wenbin still kept a bottom line and didn't hit women and children, but if they rushed forward, the mad Song Wenbin might not know how to do it.
That time left them with a deep shadow in their hearts. Thinking about it now, Xu Laigou felt that his broken arm was still aching.
Leaving aside their family, Song Wenbin brought Xu Hengzhou and the two of them to Xu Dashan's tomb.This tomb was erected by him at the beginning, and the couple was buried together. Before leaving, he entrusted the nearby villagers to look after him.
He gave a lot of money, and the villagers were honest, but they were afraid of his identity and dared not be careless.When they passed by, the villager rushed over after hearing the news, and followed behind, not daring to speak.
Song Wenbin took a look, and everything was cleaned up. He nodded in satisfaction, indicating that the villagers can leave.
The villagers relaxed their hearts and listened to Song Wenbin walk aside, but they didn't go too far. Together with a group of villagers watching the excitement, they watched Song Wenbin and the three from afar.
Song Wenbin saw that Xu Hengzhou had never greeted the villagers since he entered the village, and thought he was also harboring resentment, so he patted Xu Hengzhou's shoulder reassuringly.
They took out the sacrifices and set them up. Song Wenbin babbled at Xu Dashan's tomb. First, he felt that it had been a long time since he had seen him. Then he pointed to Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen and said, "The child has finally been found, although it was a few years late. Don't blame me. They are all good children, there is no one better than them, I wish they were my own sons, but your son is no different from mine..."
Xiang Chen had already been put down by Xu Hengzhou. He stood in front of Xu Dashan's tomb, hearing Song Wenbin's non-stop praise.He really thinks his two children are good, and he can't stop boasting.But when Xiang Chen heard it, he really felt as if he was face to face with Xu Dashan.
Xiang Chen looked at Xu Dashan's tomb and said silently in his heart: "Hi, my name is Xiang Chen. I am not Xu, and I am not your son, but I have lived as your son for six years. Maybe you know me Here I have to say sorry to you and your wife. You may not be willing to forgive me, I understand, I will try my best to make it up... I just hope you don't blame my uncle, he was cheated by me, he He's a nice guy..."
"Come on, Chenchen, talk to your father." Song Wenbin took a breath, pulled Xiang Chen and said.
Xiang Chen showed a somewhat pale smile, and said slowly: "I'll tell him in my heart."
Song Wenbin thought he was shy, let him go, poured two glasses of the wine he brought, toasted one to Xu Dashan, and drank the other in one gulp.He shed tears while drinking, but Xiang Chen didn't dare to persuade him, so he turned to look at Xu Hengzhou.
Xu Hengzhou shook his head, put his arm around Xiang Chen's shoulder, Song Wenbin needed to vent.
Xiang Chen stood for a while, feeling really uncomfortable.In addition, he drank a lot of water on the way up the mountain, so he felt a little bit like urinating, so he used the excuse of urinating, and told Song Wenbin to go to the side to pee, and ease his mood by the way.When he came back, he might have a showdown with his uncle.
Song Wenbin responded and asked Xu Hengzhou to accompany him.It was rare for Xiang Chen to refuse, he was afraid that he would cry in front of his brother in a while.And his brother is not feeling well, it's not good if his attitude makes his brother sad.
Graveyards are usually in relatively desolate places. Xiang Chen walked outside for a while, found a corner to solve his physical problems, and then walked around here slowly.
After turning around for a while, Xiang Chen felt even more uncomfortable. He found that the place was far away, surrounded by half-human-high grass. He walked in the middle, and the grass leaves kept scratching his face, leaving marks on his face after a while.
He was afraid to go back and talk to his brother, so he quickened his steps, wanting to go out quickly.The more urgent the more accidents happened, and I tripped and fell when I was not paying attention.
This fall was a bit bad, and his hands were broken. Xiang Chen was lying on the ground, and it took him a long time to get up.When everything went wrong, he felt extremely uncomfortable, and squatted on the spot without moving for a long time.
At this moment, someone's voice suddenly came, it seemed to be some women.
A younger voice said: "Hurry up, hurry up, I heard that the soldier is coming again, let's go and have a look."
Another woman with a thicker voice said, "What's so good about it? Didn't you see it a few years ago?"
The young voice immediately retorted: "It's not the same. He brought two people back this time, a young man and a child. That young man is so handsome that you can't find him anywhere in the world. If I hadn't gone back to put things, I would have Follow up."
"Yo! You're so excited, aren't you?"
"What nonsense?! I'm already married and have a baby, so why should I be so excited." The young woman said, "I just want to see him good-looking, so what's the point?"
Xiang Chenben was about to stand up, but he felt uncomfortable when he heard this. After all, the two of them were discussing his brother.So he squatted and didn't move, planning to wait for the person to leave before he left.
The laughter over there didn't stop, and it got closer and closer.The man with the rough voice was still laughing at the young woman. The young woman was annoyed by her laughter and wanted to beat her angrily.
At this time, another voice sounded, it seemed to be an older woman, she stopped the two people who were arguing, and comforted: "What's the fuss, I'm a mother, and I'm still like a girl. "
The woman with a rough voice answered, "That's not true. I took a look from a distance and looked at the age. The youngest one is about ten years old. Maybe it's Xu Dashan's two children. If we want to talk about it, people have to worry about it." You call me sister, do you mind?"
"Impossible!" The young woman immediately retorted: "It is absolutely impossible to be Xu Dashan's child."
The woman with a rough voice was just talking casually, but after hearing her firm tone, she became interested, and said deliberately: "Isn't your elder sister married to Xu Laigou's eldest son, why are you talking for them like this?! Everyone will go!" If you enjoy the blessings in the city, you won’t come back to want the poor house of the Xu family.”
"Who said the house?" The young woman said angrily, "They are not Xu Dashan's sons!"
"Then tell me a reason! Why can't it be?" The woman with a rough voice continued to argue.
The young woman was at a loss for words, and choked out a sentence for a while: "It doesn't look like it, how can Xu Gouzi be so handsome."
"That's not right." The older man listened for a long time, and finally said: "Xu Gouzi's mother is very handsome, Xu is just like his mother."
Ten years ago, Xu Gouzi was still a child. After so long, the villagers don't remember his specific appearance, only a general impression.But Xu Gouzi's mother grew up in the village, and she has an outstanding appearance, which is naturally remembered by people.
The woman with a rough voice answered immediately: "Yes, then Xu Dashan's wife is still a young lady who fled from outside. She is not handsome? She is the prettiest in our village. Xu Gouzi may look like his mother."
"That's not right. If it's really Miss, then Xu Dashan can still go to the army!" The older woman retorted: "All soldiers must be subject to political review. Do you understand the political review? If you marry a lady, the army will not I want him. I told you that she is the daughter of a lame doctor. Didn’t her father treat you at the beginning?”
This woman's natal family is from the next village, and her natal father was the branch secretary of that village. When she said this, the other two were very convinced.
"No, it's a doctor, I remember. It's not easy for a grown man to bring up a daughter and raise them up hard." The woman with a rough voice sighed.
The young woman also sighed: "When I was a child, I was treated by a doctor. She was a good person, but she died too early."
The old woman glanced at her and muttered: "Yes, she died too early, otherwise Dashan's daughter-in-law would not be alone and helpless. She was bullied by the couple while she was pregnant, and finally died of dystocia."
The young woman showed embarrassment. She knew that her eldest brother's husband's family was not good, but her family was too difficult. If her eldest sister hadn't married, several of her family would starve to death.Although my sister was not doing well in his family, and she didn't like that family, but it was considered relatives, so it was naturally embarrassing.
The woman with a rough voice didn't notice the young woman's embarrassment, and asked curiously, "Didn't it be difficult to give birth when you heard that the mountain was gone?"
The old woman glanced at the young woman again, she didn't see her stop her, and she even had a bit of curiosity on her face, so she lowered her voice and said, "Where is it! I heard that it was Xu Laigou and his wife who bullied Xu Gou again." My son, let a child wash her clothes, in winter, the water is full of ice balls. Dashan's daughter-in-law went to stop her, but Xu Laigou and his wife pushed her, which made it difficult to give birth."
A few people were chatting gossip, and they stopped before they knew it.It happened to be not far or near to Xiang Chen, enough for him to hear the conversation of several people clearly.
Ever since the old woman talked about the cause of Xu Dashan's wife's death, Xiang Chen held his breath, and when she finished speaking, Xiang Chen gasped.Fortunately, he is small, squatting in the grass, and cannot be seen from the outside.And the other two were surprised loudly, masking the slight gasp he made.
"What?!" The woman with a rough voice was shocked: "That's really the case, how did you know? Then why didn't you tell that soldier?"
"What did I say?" The old woman sneered, she had already said this, and she didn't need to hide it, anyway, she was not afraid of Xu Laigou's family: "I heard from my aunt and cousin that she is from Houshanwa Village. You know, when I came to visit relatives that time, I happened to see it, and it was she who helped carry Xu Dashan's wife into the house."
She paused for a moment and continued: "The news of Xu Dashan's disappearance has already spread, and the village head suppressed it, just waiting for Dashan's wife to give birth to the child. If it wasn't because of Xu Dashan's disappearance, Xu Laigou Does his wife dare to bully that orphan and widow to death?"
"Xu Laigou's wife is very poisonous." The old woman gritted her teeth a bit when she said it: "She was bad when she was young, because Xu Dashan's daughter-in-law was beautiful and always made trouble for her. At that time, I saw through her. Sure enough. , kill people."
"Then why don't you say it?" the woman with a rough voice asked again.
"I just found out!" The old woman said: "I went to my cousin's house a while ago, she, now she is not clear-headed, she told me in a daze, and told me that Xu Laigou's wife gave her a gift. She is half a basket of eggs, thank her for helping to deliver the baby. How can she deliver the baby, it will be a hush money soon!"
"Didn't that soldier come again?" The woman with a rough voice urged, "Go and talk to him!"
"I won't go." The old woman shook her head and refused: "It's a village, I tell you it's nothing, if you really want to inform, what's the point? How will our family live in the village in the future? Besides, my cousin also accepted Things from the Xu family, don’t let the soldier be arrested as an accomplice. I want to go to you, anyway, if I don’t go, don’t confess me, I won’t admit it.”
The other two women looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't dare to say this, and they laughed awkwardly to round up the topic.
Xiang Chen gritted his teeth with hatred, the murderer covered up the crime, and the insider concealed it and did not report it. In their eyes, human life was only worth half a basket of eggs!
He became more and more afraid to move, his squatting legs were numb and he didn't dare to move. He wanted to hear what those people would say, and he wanted to tell his uncle the news.The villain who killed someone should pay for the innocent person who died tragically!
The woman with a rough voice brought up the topic just now, and sighed: "Ms. Xu Lai is too ruthless, she is her sister-in-law! How can she do it?"
The young woman didn't refute her relatives either. She bit her lip, her face flushed, and said bitterly: "If there is anything she can't do, her own granddaughter can throw it away, let alone a sister-in-law who has no blood relationship."
The other two didn't answer, understanding what she meant.During the calamity year, the eldest sister of a young woman married into Xu Laigou's family and gave birth to a baby girl in the first year. They said that she had no support, but in fact, everyone in the village knew that Xu Laigou's daughter-in-law was picked up and thrown away.The young woman looked for it, but she couldn't find it. The cruel woman didn't know where to throw the child, and she didn't tell her when asked.
This is also the reason why the old woman dared to speak ill of her eldest brother-in-law's family in front of her. Her eldest sister was also not doing well in the Xu family, so she might hate the Xu family in her heart.
