Farmer Fubo is open for business

Song Sanshun rushed to his stepmother and asked in a trembling voice: "Mom, is Chang'an at home?"

Mrs. Zhao rolled her eyes: "Look what you said, didn't she live with your uncle? How can she be in my house?"

Song Sanshun glanced into the yard, and with a sudden heart, he rushed in and searched in several rooms.

"What are you doing?" Mrs. Zhao stopped and hurriedly chased after her to stop her.

But at this moment, Song Sanshun was like a furious lion, swiping his stepmother away and searching from room to room.

Except for the main room, he had never entered any other rooms in this home. Only when he saw it this time did he realize how poor his family was.

There were several sacks of grain piled up in the unoccupied side house, as well as several buckets of grains. Strips of bacon hung from the beams, which must have been smoked from the New Year pigs killed in winter.

The pig was fed by his wife who had not cut the grass early or late, but the couple only ate it once on New Year's Eve and had never seen it before.

Song Sanshun looked around but couldn't find Chang'an, so he went to another room.

My sister’s room is full of brand new furniture, including the cabinets and dressers.

The same is true for the eldest brother's room, which makes his family even more miserable.

Sanshun searched around but couldn't find it, so he left the compound without hesitation and ran out of the village.

Mrs. Zhao and Song Baqi were jumping around behind and yelling, but he didn't care at all.

When running towards Shangguan Road, they met Song Laoliu and others.

"Have you found it?" Song Sanshun asked.

Song Laoliu shook his head tiredly: "We ran for several miles but couldn't find it. Seeing it was getting dark, we had to come back to get a torch and then look for it on the other side."

Song Sanshun: "Which way are you going? I'll go look for you on the other side."

"Over there." Song Laoliu pointed: "Chang'an is looking for her father. They should go to the county seat."

Song Sanshun glanced in that direction, pondered for a moment, and shook his head: "Chang'an is only three years old, and Goudan is only seven years old. How do you know where the county seat is?"

He looked at the sky and said anxiously: "I'm going to the other side. The two of them have only been to Tieniu Town. I suspect they went there."

After saying that, Song Sanshun ran quickly towards Tieniu Town.

When Song Laoliu heard what he said, he suddenly realized.

As an adult, he naturally knew that the conscripting team had to go to the county town to report first, but Chang'an and Goudan were just little kids who didn't understand anything. How could they know so much?

"I'm going too!" Song Laoliu shouted, and instead of going back to look for the torch, he went straight after Song Sanshun.

How could the two children be so young and spend the night in the wild? In case you encounter a wild wolf

Song Laoliu didn't dare to think deeply, and he didn't dare to waste a moment and quickly caught up with Song Sanshun.

Several other people also chased after them, and a group of people and Song Sanshun walked quickly towards Tieniu Town.

It was getting dark, and I could hardly see my fingers.

After several people stumbled to another fork in the road, Song Sanshun suddenly had an idea in his mind and suddenly remembered that his father-in-law's home was nearby.

"Brother Six, how about we go to my father-in-law's house first." What if my father-in-law saw Chang'an on the road and took her home?

Song Sanshun said this, but in his heart he knew it was impossible.

But now it's the end of February, there's not even a moon in the sky, and we can't see the road under our feet at all.

Even if Chang'an and Goudan were sleeping on the roadside, they might not see them.

Therefore, I had to go to my father-in-law’s house to make a few torches before going on the road.

So, a few people walked towards the mountain village.

Before they entered the village, they heard several dogs barking wildly at them.

Several people picked up trash from the ground and threw it at them, and the dogs barked even more fiercely.

When they arrived outside Wu's courtyard, they saw darkness inside the house.

Song Sanshun pushed open the door of Chaixin Courtyard, walked straight into the courtyard and knocked on the door: "Dad! Dad! I am Sanshun."

After a moment, the lights came on in the house.

Old man Wu opened the door and came out with his coat on. He saw his son-in-law and several people, and he seemed to understand: "Are you looking for Chang'an?"

Song Sanshun nodded repeatedly and asked excitedly: "Dad, have you seen Chang'an?"

Old man Wu sighed and opened the door: "Come in quickly, Chang'an is sleeping."

"Is my Goudan here?" Song Laoliu's voice trembled with excitement.

Old man Wu: "There is a boy who is with Chang'an. I wonder if he is your son-in-law."

"Where is it? I'll go take a look." Song Laoliu was worried, fearing that it was not a bitch.

Old man Wu walked into the house with an oil lamp and saw that his wife had gotten up, but the two children on the kang were still sleeping.

Song Sanshun and Song Laoliu rushed to the kang at the same time. When they saw the two children clearly, they cried with joy.

"You bastard!" Song Laoliu picked up his son and slapped him on the butt, waking him up immediately.

Goudan opened his eyes in confusion, saw his father's face under the dim light, and murmured: "Dad, why are you hitting someone?"

Song Laoliu sobbed, took his son into his arms, and wrapped him in his coat, "I'm beating you, you brat! Tell me! Why did you run so far?"

Goudan was very sleepy and didn't want to answer the question.

Song Sanshun also picked up Chang'an. Seeing that she was sleeping deeply, he didn't wake her up and asked his father-in-law, "Why did Chang'an come to you?"

Old man Wu recounted the previous situation, sighed, and asked, "Do you want to take them back now?"

"Yeah." His wife was worried at home for some reason, so he naturally wanted to take Chang An back.

"Don't leave in a hurry yet." Mother-in-law Sun opened the box and rummaged around: "It's cold at night, don't let them freeze. I'll find two clothes for you to wrap up."

But she searched hard and couldn't find any clothes that could keep out the cold.

Song Sanshun also noticed it and whispered: "It's okay, I'll wrap her in my coat so she won't freeze."

He put Chang'an back on the bed and untied his cotton-padded jacket.

Chang'an woke up and was a little surprised to see a room full of people when he opened his eyes.

She climbed up quickly, looked at this and that, and finally stretched out her little hand to her third uncle.

Song Sanshun wrapped his little niece in his cotton-padded jacket and said goodbye to his father-in-law and mother-in-law: "I will bring Xiuying back to see you in a few days."

Old man Wu nodded, but stopped talking.

In fact, he wanted to borrow some money from his son-in-law to buy medicine for Chonglou, but then he thought that his son-in-law's situation was not good either. He was living under his stepmother and he probably didn't have any money.

"Wait a minute, I'll tie two torches for you to take with you." Old man Wu came out of the house with an oil lamp, went to the stove and found two wooden sticks, as well as some grass tendons and thatch.

Drop the only lamp oil in the oil lamp on the thatch, then wrap the thatch and grass tendons around one end of the wooden stick and tie a knot.

The simple torch was ready and the oil lamp was almost extinguished.

"Take it." Old man Wu handed the two torches to his son-in-law: "Be careful on the road."

Song Sanshun took the torch and handed it to his companion. As soon as he carried Chang An out of the house, he saw Chang An trying to pull out a small hand from his uncle's arms and pointing to the west room: "Uncle, uncle!"

Old man Wu touched her head and said lovingly: "Uncle is asleep, so there is no need to say goodbye to him."

Chang'an shook his head and struggled to get out: "Zhuzhu, uncle, uncle."
