Chapter 1023 Demon Seed is Natural (57)
"You all know the situation in the village now. Grandpa has made it clear. There is a shortage of food now. One more person means one more mouth. So... if Xiaotao's parents come, Xiaoye, please leave together."< br>
One second the little girl was struggling to chew the hard sweet cake in her hand. The next second she heard this, she threw the sweet cake in her hand on the table.
When Zhou Ye is angry, it will be particularly obvious.
Moreover, he is difficult to coax and stubborn. Unless he can think clearly, this matter will never be over.
And now, clearly, she was angry.
The grandfather had no choice but to reach out and pat his granddaughter on the head, but the granddaughter avoided her.
How could the old man catch up with his rapidly growing granddaughter? He took back his rough and cracked hands in a lonely manner, his beard trembling slightly.
"Ono...forget it."
The words that came to his lips were finally unable to be uttered due to Zhou Ye's character.
In the night, the old man's waist became lower and lower, and when he walked, his hand on crutches had no strength.
Zhou Ye looked at this figure from behind. For some reason, his eyes were sore and he felt very uncomfortable.
She stopped looking at him and looked up at the sky.
There is a huge moon hanging in the sky. The moon is as bright as jade, and its light is not as hot as the sun. On the contrary, the moonlight is cool, like a gauze covering the world.
Next to the bright moon, there are countless bright stars. The stars are like a complicated chessboard. Gazing at them for a long time makes people feel lonely and lonely.
The young man stood by quietly, looking down at the wooden piles in the yard. He hesitated to speak, and in the end there was only silence.
The girl is still young and has been favored since she was a child. Subtly, she has become accustomed to her grandfather's concessions. Even if her temper is perverse and untamable, the old man will only be tolerant and patient.
However, the sharp thorns growing in her bones can easily hurt the people around her who love her the most.
This has nothing to do with right or wrong, it’s just that no one has taught her how to put herself in someone else’s shoes.
Growth takes time, don't rush, she will learn all this sooner or later.
Another night passed.
Early the next morning, there was a bumping sound of carriages and horses at the entrance of the village.
The person Grandpa had been thinking about day and night finally came back. For the first time in these years, the old man's face showed a relieved smile. He walked quickly to the entrance of the village with his crutches. When he saw the person coming, a look of astonishment flashed across the old man's face.
Xiaotao's parents are indeed back.
But it's not just them.
Those who had moved away with their families all came back.
After getting off the carriage, there was not much joy on their faces. Instead, they were full of heaviness and gloom, as if they had been deeply hit by something.
I was really excited when I left.
When I came back, it seemed that all the vitality had been consumed by nothing.
Several old people looked at each other, and finally Grandpa came forward and asked Xiao Tao's parents who were closest to him.
"You...why are you all back?"
The couple's expressions were solemn and their eyes were evasive. It was obvious that they didn't want to say anything.
The old man saw it, and in an instant, some suspicion took shape in his heart.
"Village Chief, are our houses and land still there?"
Someone asked.
The old man was startled, hesitated for a while, and finally nodded hesitantly.
"It's all still there, but..."
"Let's go back and talk about it first."
"Okay... go back first and talk about it later."
Along the way, the current situation of the entire village came into view.
Those who returned home were full of shock and disbelief.
