Chapter 279 The Current Situation in the Village
A quarter of an hour later, Liu Xiaoxiao ran down the mountain panting.
Looking at the unusually quiet village, she thought that everyone in the village had been knocked unconscious.
But when she reached the village, she saw a few elderly people busying themselves in front of her.
Liu Xiaoxiao was puzzled. "Aren't they all unconscious? What's going on with these people?"
If you don’t understand, just ask.
But just as she called out, "Grandma, do you need help?"
The people on the other side were waving their hands in panic. Some even put their index fingers on their lips, making a startled gesture.
Seeing this, Liu Xiaoxiao curiously leaned forward, blinking her big eyes and asking in a low voice, "What are you doing? Why can't I speak loudly?"
The person who answered her was an old lady about the same age as Grandma Liu.
But before answering Liu Xiaoxiao's question, she first asked, "The girl is one of the new refugees who came here, and she is your family's child, right?"
Liu Xiaoxiao nodded.
The other party then had an expression that said, "That's right," and asked, "Then you weren't at home this afternoon. Where did you go?"
Liu Xiaoxiao: "Does this have anything to do with what you just did?"
The old lady seemed to be relieved all of a sudden. She shook her head and said, "It doesn't matter. You just need to know that you are lucky today."
"Also, don't linger here any longer. Go back and see how your family is doing. We old ladies were unwell, so we managed to escape the disaster in the house. And these..."
As she spoke, she pointed to the few men still unconscious not far away and said, "We're not that lucky!"
After she finished speaking, she dragged her heavy body again, intending to continue dragging the strong man on the ground.
Liu Xiaoxiao originally wanted to help her, but then she put herself in her shoes and thought, what if the people lying here were her own parents?
No, she has to go back and check the situation at home before she can come to help these people.
As she thought of this, her pace became faster and faster. When she was almost running into a shadow, she finally saw the yard where her family was temporarily staying.
But when she saw the scene which was completely different from the one in the village, she was confused again.
"Hey, Lao Liu, can you please stop talking to your son? Don't you see there are a lot of things to do here? Can you just let him sit there by himself?" This was the voice of a middle-aged woman.
Then another slightly older male voice was heard, also giving instructions to his daughter-in-law: "Eldest daughter-in-law, you have good eyesight. Come over and help me check. Are all the people from our village here? Is there anyone missing? So we can go out and continue looking."
"Good dad."
Why does this voice sound so familiar!
Liu Xiaoxiao looked closely and saw, "Oh! Isn't that Great-grandfather's wife, Great-grandmother?"
Since my great-grandmother is here, where is my grandma?
As soon as Liu Xiaoxiao stepped into the yard, she began to look around for her family.
"Isn't this Erya? You're finally back! By the way, are you looking for your grandma and the others? They just went into the house."
Liu Xiaoxiao looked at the person in front of her who had cleared up her doubts and politely replied, "Thank you, Grandma Wang. I'll go in first."
The person Liu Xiaoxiao calls Grandma Wang is actually Wang Guifang's mother.
Seeing the little girl about to enter the house, she quickly said, "No need to thank me, just come in! Your grandparents are planning to go out and look for you! Now that you're back, they'll be relieved."
Does what she said mean that grandpa has also returned?
Seeing this, she didn't dare to delay even a moment and rushed into the house.
