Li Ming slowly raised his head and looked at me, "I know, and this is the only way at the moment.
We then discussed it and decided that Li Ming would go back and find a few tools, and then we would bury his grandfather's coffin.
Although the coffin is empty now, with nothing in it, it can still be regarded as the home of the deceased. Chinese people pay attention to the burial of the deceased, so it is really inappropriate to just abandon it in the wild without caring about it.
Lao Bai and I waited where we were while Li Ming went back to look for tools. We didn't have to wait long before Li Ming came back with the tools.
Then the three of us made a brief distribution, and then started working enthusiastically. We worked for almost forty minutes before we finally finished.
Then we went back.
After we returned to Leijiazhuang, it was great to see Li Sanqiang walking towards us.
"Dongfang, this drought demon won't appear for a while. I think you are going to live in our Leijiazhuang for a while. If you don't mind, just stay at my house! Don't worry, I have air conditioners, refrigerators, and microwaves.
, wif, everything, and there is a river behind my house. You can enjoy the scenery here if you have nothing to do. To be honest, the conditions here are not much worse than those in your city! "
I grew up in a rural area, so it doesn't matter where I live. And Lao Bai is not a particularly particular person. Since he has already arranged everything for us, we naturally have no objection.
After we agreed, Li Sanqiang took Lao Bai and I to his home.
Li Sanqiang's house is a bungalow, and he arranged the place where Lao Bai and I live. The bedding, pillows, etc. are all brand new.
I asked Li Sanqiang why he was the only one in this house.
Li Sanqiang said that his wife had passed away more than ten years ago. He originally had a son living with him. After the drought happened, he temporarily moved outside. Originally, his son tried to persuade Li Sanqiang to leave with him.
Woolen cloth!
But Li Sanqiang felt that there were still many things in this village that required him to be busy, so he decided to stay.
I applaud Li Sanqiang's behavior. In fact, I think there is nothing wrong with being aloof and aloof when faced with difficulties. A person's life is beautiful. What's wrong with cherishing your life and living hard?
But everything I said is based on one foundation, that is, you can be selfish and indifferent, but you cannot hurt others.
Therefore, in this case, the self-sacrifice spirit of a child like Li Sanqiang is very valuable. After all, it is easy to say, but not everyone can do it.
"Dongfang, I have told the other villagers exactly what you said. Now those who are able to do so have left Leijiazhuang. Those who are unable to leave Leijiazhuang have also installed a large iron on their gates.
Lock it, and I guarantee that even if the heavenly soldiers come down to earth tonight, they will never be able to break into the homes of our villagers."
If this is the case, it would be best. Once the drought monster appears, it can be said to be a disaster for thousands of miles. It is very important to take all defensive measures as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary losses.
"You guys should rest in the room for a while, and I'll prepare dinner for you!" Li Sanqiang said with a smile.
When I heard the word "dinner", my stomach growled very unsatisfactorily. It occurred to me that I had received a call from my grandpa early in the morning, asking me to get here as quickly as possible.
, since I got here, I have been busy non-stop. Except for a simple bite of bread given to me by Lao Bai in the car, I haven't eaten anything.
But my stomach growled very loudly. There were only three of us, Lao Bai, Li Sanqiang and me in the room. They all heard my stomach growl.
The two were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other and laughed in unison.
"Haha... It seems that Dongfang is already hungry. Come on, I'll go cook right away." With that, Li Sanqiang walked outside.
"Wait..." Just as Li Sanqiang turned around, I stopped him because I thought of something more important.
"What's wrong?" Li Sanqiang looked at me puzzled.
"Uncle Li, don't be too busy cooking. Can you prepare a barrel of gasoline for me first? When that drought demon appears, you can burn him completely with gasoline."
"Yes, yes, this is a big deal. I almost forgot about it. Just wait, I'll go find gasoline right away."
When Li Sanqiang came back again, he already had a barrel of gasoline in his hand.
He put the barrel of gasoline in the yard, just waiting for the drought demon to appear, and we would have a good show of burning the drought demon.
After the gasoline was ready, Li Sanqiang went to the kitchen to cook, while Lao Bai and I sat in the living room chatting and spanking.
While we were waiting, did I receive a call from my grandpa, who asked me how the situation was going here?
I told him the situation in Leijiazhuang truthfully.
After Grandpa said "um... um..." on the phone for a while, he hung up the phone before I could ask him when he would come over.
Looking at the mobile phone in my hand, I was speechless. What on earth is grandpa busy with?
You don’t even have time to talk to me for one more conversation?
After another half an hour, Li Sanqiang shouted from outside that the message was ready and informed us that we could eat.
Dinner was very simple. Li Sanqiang cooked us some side dishes, shredded potatoes, scrambled eggs, etc., as well as a pot of sweet potato porridge.
Li Sanqiang said with some embarrassment, "Because it hasn't rained here for a long time, the vegetables we originally planted were basically dead, and there are no people on the street after sunset, so I can only use the ingredients I have at home."
You just make a few side dishes. Eat whatever you want, don't be polite to me."
For me, who is already hungry, some of the food is already good, so how can I be so picky about it?
After I said a few polite words, I started to eat with all my heart, because I was really hungry. Even though these dishes were very simple, I still ate them very deliciously. While eating, I also praised Li Sanqiang for his good cooking skills.
.
And my words were very useful to Li Sanqiang. After I praised him, Li Sanqiang smiled so happily that he couldn't even close his mouth.
I didn't stop until my stomach was so round that there was no room for other food.
After the meal, I leaned comfortably on the sofa. Li Sanqiang, who was sitting next to me, still teased me, "You eat so much now. If you encounter a drought at night and you can't run away, what should I do?"
