Chapter 185: The Countdown

When Li Wu woke up and saw the scene in front of him, he knew that he was back in the small village at the foot of Qixia Mountain.

There were several thatched huts in front of him. Xiao Wangjue was digging up a small mound of soil under the corner of the thatched hut. When he saw a small whirlpool, he gently pulled it open with his hands and blew the mud away with his mouth. There would be a small insect underneath...

Axiu was lighting a fire and cooking in the house. Li Wu watched Xiao Wangjue having a great time. Although he was covered in mud, he didn't care at all.

Suddenly there was a ping-pong sound, and something seemed to fall in the room. Li Wu quickly ran into the room. It turned out that the legs of the wooden table were rotten due to age. Maybe there were too many things on the table, and they were broken. Various objects

They were scattered all over the floor, and Axiu was cleaning them up.

Axiu shed tears while cleaning up, thinking that Tingsheng would not be able to repair these objects herself. Without Tingsheng, how would this home feel like a home?

If it weren't for the old village chief and several of Tingsheng's friends who often helped her, she wouldn't have known how she could survive this day.

In fact, Axiu also found it strange that the old village chief and those people had never helped their mother and son before, but suddenly one day they started to care about them, and they would send food and money from time to time. Although the gifts were not much, they were enough for the mother and son.

Lived.

Axiu sometimes wonders if something happened to Tingsheng outside, so they took good care of the orphan and widowed mother...

Every time she thought of this possibility, Axiu would shed tears.

She also asked the old village chief and several others, and they all said they had never seen Tingsheng...

Hearing the noise in the house, Xiao Wangjue also ran in and asked with concern: "Mom, what's wrong? Why are you crying!"

Axiu wiped the tears from her face and smiled, "Mom, it's okay. There is dust in my eyes."

"Mother is lying. If there is dust in Jue'er's eyes, just rub it and it will be fine. How can you cry like mother? Mother... do you miss your father? Jue'er misses his father too!"

Xiao Wangjue looked aggrieved. He hadn't seen his father for a long time.

Axiu said nothing and silently packed up the objects on the ground. After a while, Axiu suddenly asked:

"Jue'er, shall we go find your father?"

When Xiao Wangjue heard this, he immediately became happy, "Okay, okay! Mom, let's go find Dad!"

Axiu looked at Xiao Wangjue with a happy face and a smile on his face, as if he had made some determination.

"Then let's go play outside while mom cleans up. After dinner, we'll go out to find daddy!"

"Oh! I'm going to find my father! I want my father!"

Xiao Wangjue jumped happily and continued to play with the dirt pile.

Axiu watched Xiao Wangjue go out and murmured: "Ms. sir, it's been almost three years and there's been no news from you. My wife misses you so much!"

After finishing the meal and tidying up, Xiao Wang felt that he was also carrying a small baggage, and Axiu was also holding a bag. Inside were baked cakes, a change of clothes, and some broken silver coins.

She didn't dare to tell anyone about Axiu's going out. She always felt that although the old village chief and his friends were good to their mother and son, they had an indescribable feeling. The old village chief also vaguely revealed that if she wanted to remarry...

While the villagers were working in the fields, the mother and son quietly left the village and headed towards the county town.

After leaving the village, the mother and son began a long journey. When they were hungry at first, they ate pancakes. After the pancakes were finished, they ate fried beans and corn flour, mixed with a little water.

In the end, when they finished eating the fried beans and corn flour, they could only start buying steamed buns with silver taels. Axiu was reluctant to eat them and only ate half of them each time to satisfy Xiao Wangjue.

More than twenty days later, the mother and son finally arrived at the county town.

Axiu's haggard face also showed a smile. The silver in her bag was only enough to buy steamed buns for a few days. Looking at the street with people coming and going, Axiu held on to Xiao Wangjue's hand, for fear that Xiao Wangjue would leave.

Dispersed.

As mother and son walked, Axiu asked others,

"Everyone, please tell me how to get to Shen's Rice Shop?"

After asking several people, everyone waved their hands, and finally an aunt told Axiu that there were many Shen's Rice Shops in this county, and she didn't know which one Axiu was asking about.

Axiu followed her aunt's instructions and came to a Shen's rice store. When the store clerk saw Axiu's clothes, he knew he was from a poor family and did not come to greet Axiu.

Axiu showed a smile and asked: "Brother, I want you to ask someone, does your Shen's Rice Shop have an accountant named Wang Tingsheng?"

The store clerk didn't want to pay attention to Axiu. He glanced at Xiao Wangjue and then shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it!"

He has indeed never heard of it. This is just a branch. There are seven or eight branches in the county, and each one has a cashier.

Axiu thanked him, returned to the street, held Xiao Wangjue's hand and continued walking forward, asking passers-by from time to time...

I asked two Shen's Rice Shops one after another, but I have never heard of it.

Axiu has never traveled far, so she doesn't know that these store clerks don't know the name of the general ledger, unless she asks the branch accountants and store managers. Unfortunately, Axiu doesn't understand at all.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Axiu bought two steamed buns and went to the foot of an overpass. Mother and son nestled under the bridge, preparing to sleep here for the night.

When Xiao Wangjue snored slightly, Axiu looked at Xiao Wangjue in her arms, hugged Xiao Wangjue, and her tears flowed down unknowingly...

Li Wuzhen wanted to tell Axiu that your man thought you were dead and sleeping with other women!

It's a pity that he doesn't even have a soul, he can only watch helplessly and can't do anything.

The next day, Xiao Wang woke up and saw that his mother was still sleeping with sweat on her face. Xiao Wangjue thoughtfully took out a towel and wanted to wipe the sweat from his mother. Suddenly, his little hand touched her mother's face.

Stunned, I quickly reached out and touched it again, and found that my mother’s face was really hot!

Although Xiao Wangjue was only seven years old, at this time, he also knew that his mother must be sick.

Xiao Wangjue burst into tears, crying and calling her mother. Axiu woke up in a daze, but she was powerless and could only cheer up and comfort Xiao Wangjue.

"Jue'er, mother...it's okay...stop crying!"

"Woah! Mother is lying, mother is obviously sick!"

Seeing his mother's weak appearance, Xiao Wangjue cried and said.

Seeing sweat pouring out from his mother's face, Xiao Wangjue remembered that in the past, when he felt uncomfortable and his face was covered with sweat, his mother would use a towel dipped in cold water and apply it on her face.

Taking the towel, Xiao Wangjue stood aside and looked around. He saw a small slope leading to the river, and there was also a stone step in the river.

Xiao Wangjue ran downstairs. Axiu immediately guessed what Xiao Wangjue wanted to do and quickly shouted: "Jue'er, come back, it's dangerous down there!"

Xiao Wangjue didn't listen to her at all, and he couldn't see anyone in an instant.

Axiu was worried about Xiao Wangjue, so she used all her strength to slowly climb to the edge of the bridge hole, hoping to see Xiao Wangjue with her own eyes before she would feel relieved.
