Huo Yunzhou stood there stunned, a little uncomfortable with his brother's embrace. If there was a light at this time, you could see how stiff his expression was, and even a little disgusted.

Mr. Huo also put on his clothes, with red eyes, and ran to light the oil lamp, "Come in quickly, are your clothes wet? Take off your raincoat quickly, I will raise the charcoal fire, and you will warm yourself up. Xiao Linzi, you go to the next door and say Tell them not to be afraid."

Huo Yunzhou was finally able to push his brother away righteously and said, "Yes, go ahead and say something. It seemed like you scared them just now."

Huo Lin wiped his tears, ran to say a few words, then ran back quickly and nestled tightly beside his brother.

They brought him clothes and poured him water.

Grandma Shen breathed a sigh of relief and patted the faces of her two granddaughters, "That boy from the Huo family is back. He's okay. Let's go to sleep!"

Shen Hui complained: "He suddenly ran over like this in the middle of the night. It's really scary!"

Shen Qingze said nothing and lay down to guess how he found this place.

It is not difficult to guess that Huo Yunzhou was worried about their safety, so he ran back from Border City. You can imagine how many hardships he went through along the way without looking at it. But when he returned to Crescent Bay, his heart suddenly dropped, and his house was gone. The ten acres of wasteland that had been cleared now turned into a lake.

After being in a daze for half an hour, he thought of the cabin in the forest again, and went there overnight with the intention of giving it a try.

Fortunately, everyone is here.

After hearing his brother's description, Huo Lin's eyes turned red again, "Brother, is your leg injured?" He noticed that his brother's posture was a bit awkward when he was sitting.

Huo Yunzhou lifted up his trouser legs nonchalantly and showed the wound to him generously, "It was just scratched by a branch, it's nothing serious."

Uncle Huo also saw the whitened wound soaked in water. The wound was turned outward and was three inches long. "This is not possible. The wound will easily become inflamed if it is stained with dirty water. You must apply medicine quickly. Huo Lin, go and get the wine." "

"Ai!"

Huo Yunzhou didn't really care. He still had to avoid wound infection if possible. He had seen too many people die from minor wound infection on the battlefield.

The three people in the next room were not asleep either.

Shen Hui lowered her voice and said, "Qing'er, why did he come back suddenly?"

"I must be worried about grandpa and his brother!"

"I don't think so."

"What?" Shen Qing didn't understand what she meant.

But soon she understood.

Early the next morning, surprisingly, it didn't rain, and of course it didn't clear up either.

Shen Qing opened the door and walked to the terrace, where he saw Huo Yunzhou waving an ax and chopping firewood.

The corner of her mouth twitched fiercely, "There is enough firewood. Besides, we won't live here forever. We still have to go back when the flood recedes."

Huo Yunzhou stopped the ax and turned to look at her with a pair of deep eyes. He thought he was in a hurry. He hadn't shaved his beard for several days, and green stubble appeared on his chin.

"You all follow me to Border City. I can buy a small yard there. You can do business if you want to, but I'm afraid you won't be able to farm, but you will definitely be able to live a stable life."

Shen Qing was confused when he heard this, "Who said that I want to go to Border City with you?"

Huo Yunzhou smiled masculinely, "Aren't you going? But the houses have collapsed, where will you live? If you run to the town to settle down, you might as well follow me to Border City." He paused, lowered his head and then raised his head, "If you I’m worried that my reputation won’t be justified, so why not let’s get married!”

His tone of voice was extremely relaxed, as if he was saying: The weather is nice, let's go fishing!

There was a slight fluctuation in Shen Qing's heart, because she could tell that underneath Huo Yunzhou's seemingly calm and relaxed tone, there was hidden tension and uneasiness. Look, he almost broke the ax handle.

Huo Lin stood behind the door and watched secretly.

Old Man Huo also pricked up his ears, and he was also very pleased that his persuasion last night was not in vain.

In the west room, Shen Hui looked complicated.

Although Huo Yunzhou is a good man and treats his sister well, but as grandma said, being a soldier is not stable at all. Besides, she can see that her sister has not yet understood the relationship between men and women. Maybe in her opinion, making money is more important than getting married. Much more important.

I have to say, she saw it very accurately.

All Shen Qing could think about at this moment was how crazy this kid was. She had to run away with her family before her plan to turn around had even begun. What was the difference between this and a deserter?

Of course Huo Yunzhou didn't know what she was planning. When he saw her lowering her head and not speaking, he thought she was shy, "Well... you think about it slowly, I'm not in a hurry."

Uncle Huo secretly scolded the silly boy for not being in a hurry, even though he was in a desperate hurry.

He escaped from Border City secretly, and he will lead the military law when he returns.

Shen Qing stopped being polite and decided to tell him the truth, "Put down the ax first, and let's go to the lake and talk slowly."

Huo Yunzhou didn't hesitate. He raised his ax and embedded it deeply into the tree stump.

The coat was hanging on the tree nearby, so I took it off and put it on.

When he turned back, Shen Qing had already gone quite far, and he had to speed up his pace to catch up.

Shen Hui looked a little worried as she watched the two people leaving one after another.

Her mind was a little confused, and when she thought about it carefully, she wasn't sure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

Grandma Shen came in cursing. Shen Hui listened carefully and recognized that the old lady was scolding Huo Yunzhou.

Shen Hui said with a smile: "Grandma, someone wants to marry your granddaughter. Isn't that a good thing? Why aren't you happy yet?"

Grandma Shen put the mushrooms she had just picked up on the ground, sat down and sulked, "Didn't you hear what the boy named Huo said? He wants to take us all to Border City. I heard that the place is very desolate. What if we don't have it?" Don’t we all have to rely on others to make a living?”

Shen Hui's eyes lit up and her mind suddenly cleared, "Yes, we can't go. Even if we want to go, we can't live on others. We have to be able to stand on our own." They knew nothing about Bianguan City, and they didn't know much about Huo Yunzhou either. So understand.

My natal family is not tough. If something happens, how can they support their sister?

Granny Shen: "You're right. After all these things, grandma finally figured it out. We can't change our background, so we have to struggle on our own. When the flood is over, I have to ask your second aunt to send Shen Feng to school to take the merit test. If their family refuses to contribute money, you two will. Anyway, Shen Feng will be successful in the future, and you will also have a good reputation. My mother's family is very powerful, and my husband's family will not dare to take advantage of it easily."

"Uh... why did you think of this again?" No matter whether you have money or not, this is not easy to accept.

After turning around, grandma still thinks about her grandson.

Granny Shen thought that her eldest granddaughter would not agree, so she held her hand affectionately, "Shen Feng, that child, has always loved to run behind you two since he could walk. You also watched him grow up. This time there is a flood, you two I am afraid that my uncle's family has also suffered a disaster. The wheat in the fields has been destroyed. I don't know if I can make up for the harvest after autumn. The government taxes may not be exempted. There is a lot of money inside and outside. If he can't hold on, Yes, you have to help them."
