Chapter 717 Escape 22

In the evening, Sun Chunfeng cooked a pot of porridge that was as clear as water. There were only a few grains of rice in it. The Zhu family heard the Geng family cooking. Tian Guilan, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhu family, came over and knocked. I want to borrow some food.

Sun Chunfeng looked embarrassed, "Guilan, I don't have anything to eat at home, so I boiled a pot of water. There were only a few grains of rice in it. You can see for yourself."

She opened it The lid of the pot is for people to see.

Tian Guilan glanced into the pot and saw a small handful of rice grains sprinkled in the water. She could count them with both hands.

Tian Guilan curled her lips, a little disappointed.

Sun Chunfeng put the lid on the pot and said again, "Guilan, the water from the well in our village has come up. If you are tired and don't want to fetch water, just scoop a basin of water from my house and use it first."

“Forget it, my boss has already gone to fetch water.”

Seeing that there was no point in fishing, Tian Guilan twisted her skinny waist and walked away.

Sun Chunfeng quickly closed the courtyard door and bolted it from the inside, then went to the kitchen and brought a small pot of cold fungus vegetables from the cupboard into the main room.

Sun Chunfeng whispered to her mother-in-law, "Mom, you really guessed it right. Tian Guilan came to borrow some food. Fortunately, I only put a small handful of rice on purpose, so she didn't have the nerve to ask for it."

"Well, before the relief food comes, you have to be careful when cooking in the future. Don't let anyone know that we have food at home, especially the source of the food. You have to shut up and don't leak a word, otherwise our Geng family won't be able to stay in Fengling Village."

"Mom, I know the seriousness, and I will never tell anyone."

Sun Chunfeng assured that she was not a talkative person to begin with, not to mention that she would not speak out about important matters that related to her family's life and property.

The five children in the family, as well as Geng Dalin and Yuanchun, also gave warnings and threats.

Fortunately, although the five children are still young, they all have strict mouths and will not talk nonsense. After dinner, Yuanchun left the table to his daughter-in-law to clear, and she went out tremblingly to find the village chief.

"Mom, I'll go with you." Geng Dalin said, "My eldest brother and sister-in-law haven't come back. They must have gone to Lao Du's house. Mom, let's go to Lao Du's house and ask. If the eldest brother and sister-in-law live at Lao Du's house, then let's go out tonight Don't leave the door open for them."

"Okay, you should stay at home. You are the only man in the family. You stay to protect the children and Chunfeng. I will go find the old village chief."

“Mother.”

"Go back, I'll come as soon as I go."

As soon as Yuan Chun walked out of the courtyard, he saw the old village chief coming.

The old village chief asked, "Sister-in-law Geng, are you going out?"

"Village chief, I really want to find you." Yuan Chun said, "I want to ask, what is the situation in the village?" Everyone is back, why haven’t my boss and his wife come back?”

The village chief sighed and told her with a heavy face, "Sister-in-law Geng, I came here to tell you about the big couple. They... they were suddenly struck to death by lightning on their way back, and the others who were struck to death by lightning were also There are two families, Lao Du’s family and Lao Fan’s family.”

"What...what?"

Yuan Chun staggered back a few steps as if he was not affected, fell to the ground, and said feebly, "Village Chief, what you said is true. Are my eldest couple really...really struck by lightning?"

"Sister-in-law Geng, is it true? Everyone in the village saw with their own eyes that the big and strong couple were turned into ashes by lightning, without even their corpses. The old Du family and the old Fan family were also turned into black coal by lightning, but at least their corpses were left behind. We buried it on a hillside over there.”
