Chapter 34 Gone, Gone
The little friend was shocked when he heard Shen Yulin say that Fang Youshun and his wife had taken Shen Yuxiu to beg for food, but Shen Yulin's behavior didn't look like a fake, his face became hot immediately, and he lowered his head in embarrassment.

It turns out that the life of the Shen family is not easy now. Originally, he wanted to be like those people in the village and go to the Shen family to earn some food with the cheek. Fortunately, he didn't go, otherwise it would be so embarrassing?

The little friend was guilty and grateful to Shen Yulin, and when he got home, he gave the Caiwowo to his parents. When the parents asked about the origin of Caiwowo, he told the story of begging with Shen Yulin. After the couple was stunned Can't help but sigh.

I really didn't expect that people with allowances went to beg for food, but this kid Yulin really has a conscience, and he didn't forget to help his own children when they begged.

In this way, Shen Yulin took his little friend out to ask for a meal, and by accident, everyone knew that Fang Youshun and his wife went out with their children.

Shen Jinggui was stunned when he heard the news, but looked at his good brother and team leader who came to ask him, and nodded with a serious face.

"Yeah, the old man can't help it. There are nine adults and nine children in the family. How can that little allowance be enough?" Shen Jinggui didn't say how much the old man's allowance is, but anyone can know that there are not many of them. Money, otherwise, the old couple would not have gone out to beg for food.

The squad leader sighed, patted him on the shoulder and went to work.

He thought that Shen Jinggui would be better off than himself with the help of his father-in-law, but he didn't expect that it would not be much better.

But it makes sense to think about it. My family's life is easier because the family has not been separated. There are more adults earning money in the family and fewer children who can eat.When working on engineering in winter, several of his brothers can take turns to go, and the remaining brothers can do other jobs to supplement their family expenses.However, Shen Jinggui separated from the family early on. He was the only male laborer in the family, and he had to lean on the embankment all winter, even if he wanted to find a job to subsidize the family.

However, Shen Jinggui also gave birth to a good daughter, and he picked up a father-in-law who has an allowance and can weave basket mats for him as soon as he went out, or else his good brother doesn't know what to do now!

Shen Jinggui looked at the back of the team leader leaving, and couldn't help wiping his sweat quietly. For the first time, he felt that his son, who only knew how to be mischievous, had done a good thing.

But at the same time, he felt a little ashamed of his father-in-law. If it weren't for the allowance from his father-in-law, his family would not be much better than the others in the village.

In the wilderness, the breeze rustled the weeds, and Shen Yuxiu sat quietly on the ground, watching seriously his grandparents catching fish in the ditch that was about to dry up.

In front of her was a wooden basin half filled with water, and behind her was a tricycle supported by a shed with a tarpaulin. The place where she was sitting happened to be in the shadow of the shed, and was not exposed to the sun at all.Whenever grandma and grandpa touched a fish in the ditch and threw it on the bank, she would quickly pick it up and put it into the wooden basin guarded by it, never tired of it.

Yesterday morning, she was carried on the tricycle by her grandma while she was still asleep, and she was already on the road when she woke up.

Shen Yuxiu is a person who loves novelty. When she woke up, she heard her grandma tell her that grandpa would take the two of them out to play, and she accepted it easily. The two of them kept walking, looking at the unfamiliar scenery along the way.

Along the way, grandma pointed to the flowers and trees she met from time to time, and kept telling her what these flowers and trees are called, what they can do, whether they can be eaten, and what they taste like, which opened her eyes a lot , Also know a lot of things that I didn't know before.

And every time grandpa sees some beautiful wild flowers, he will stop to pick some beautiful wild flowers and weave a wreath for her to wear on her head.

So, so far, Shen Yuxiu hasn't felt bored at all, and she's even beautiful, especially today, when grandpa brought her to catch fish again, she feels that it's really good and very happy to come out to play.

In the middle of the afternoon, there were already half of the fish in the basin. Seeing that there were only a few small fish left in the ditch, Fang Youshun asked Grandma Fang to go ashore first, and at the same time raised her voice and said to Shen Yuxiu, "Xiaoxiu, throw the other basin on the car. come down."

"Hey." Shen Yuxiu agreed crisply, turned around and pulled a smaller pot from the tricycle, and threw it down.

Fang Youshun took the basin thrown by Shen Yuxiu, went to another puddle nearby to wash his hands, and then filled a basin full of water and walked ashore slowly through the mud.

On the shore, Fang Youshun and Grandma Fang washed the mud off their hands and feet with the water in the basin, and then looked at the basin of fish guarded by Shen Yuxiu.

"Yo, that's not too much." Fang Youshun said with a smile, put the water basin on the tricycle, let the two of them get on the car and sit down, then pedaled the tricycle again and took the two of them towards a small town.

It was already evening when the three of them arrived in the small town. At this time, the people were already preparing to cook. Fang Youshun, the old and the young, rode a tricycle through the streets and began to sell fish.

Now there is a shortage of supplies everywhere, especially food. Some people who are still well-off heard that there are fish sellers, and even forgot to put down the cooking spatula in their hands, and ran out in a hurry. When they saw the fish in their pots He was alive and kicking, and immediately asked the price in a hurry. After a while, there were only a dozen small fishes left in the basin.

Fang Youshun didn't sell the remaining small fish. He bought a few catties of coarse grains from a supply and marketing cooperative with the money from selling the fish, and took the two of them to find a family to stay overnight, and the remaining half of the fish became their accommodation. Fei, and the other half was made into fish soup for them to drink.

Maybe it's because he also participated in the labor. When Shen Yuxiu drank the delicious fish soup, he was almost satisfied. He just felt that there was no better fish soup in the world.

It may be because she was tired from picking up fish after getting up and sitting down all afternoon. Shen Yuxiu fell asleep in a daze not long after Grandma Fang washed her at night.

In the dark night, when Fang Youshun was lying on the kang of the guest's house and was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard his wife's voice: "Old man, how about we go find the bones of the second child? If we can find them, I think Take him back to his hometown for burial, in case the second child has not yet been reincarnated and returns to his hometown, the ancestors there can help us take care of him."

Fang Youshun was taken aback for a moment, and then asked her: "Do you remember the exact location where it was buried? If you don't remember, it may be difficult to find."

"It's in the field to the north of Minquan. I remember that there was a war trench there. There was a locust tree beside the trench. It was too chaotic at that time. My daughter and I hurriedly buried him beside the locust tree and left. As long as the trench It’s still there, the locust tree is still there, so you can almost find it.” Grandma Fang tried her best to recall the past, but it has been more than 20 years now, and she doesn’t know if there has been any change there.

In fact, she also wanted to go to find her son's bones, but the sky was high and the road was far away, and she was in a panic when she fled. She didn't know which direction Minquan County was in, and those years were very chaotic, so naturally she couldn't. do it.

When she took her daughter and finally settled down, more than ten years had passed, and she knew that there was little hope of finding her again, so she just stopped thinking.But in the past two days, Fang Youshun went wherever he wanted, and she suddenly remembered this matter again.

Anyway, walking blindly is walking, why don't you go there and take a look, if the place remains the same, if you can find your son's bones, it will also solve a heart problem, right?
"Okay, then let's go there tomorrow." Fang Youshun readily agreed, anyway, begging is just running around, it doesn't matter where you go, if you can find your son's bones and return home, that would be a good thing.

So the next day, Fang Youshun headed towards his hometown with a clear goal. From that day on, Shen Yuxiu found out that her grandpa took her and grandma to ride a tricycle non-stop. Grandpa is also unwilling to stop and let her go down for activities.

Until five days later, Shen Yuxiu was brought to a field by her grandfather, when she heard her murmur in disappointment: "It's gone, it's gone."
