034, beat the drum

The bad news brought by Wen’s father made the Song family cloudy.

Supper was already on the table, but no one moved the chopsticks.

Mrs. Song was crying loudly, and Song Fang was urging her mother while she was secretly wiping her tears.

Wen's father no longer cared about cleaning up the yellow mud on his body, and squatted by the wall outside, feeling worried.

Wen Wan looked at Song Wei and saw that he frowned and looked very ugly.

She felt very uncomfortable. She could have a premonition, but she couldn't have a father-in-law.

Could it be that she could not see anything bad except herself and Song Wei?

After a while, Song Wei looked at Wen's father, "When his father-in-law escaped, did the official yamen in the mine retreat?"

Wen's father quickly said, "It's not yet, I guess I'm scared. Someone should have gone back to report the news. Now it depends on how the government gives the families of so many buried workers."

Song Wei couldn't sit still and wait for death, so he stood up, "I'll go to the Great Ring Mountain."

Without seeing his father's body with his own eyes, he could not accept the fact that his biological father was dead.

"Sanlang." Wen's father advised him, "It's still raining outside now, and the mine collapses severely. There will be danger at any time. It's already late. You just go like this, we're not at ease."

Song Wei turned his head and looked at his mother.

Mrs. Song seemed to have been aged for decades in just half an hour, with red and swollen eyes and haggard face. She sat on a stool like a wooden sculpture. When she heard Song Wei talk to his father-in-law, she just opened her eyelids and looked at Song Wei, without saying anything, she seemed to have lost her soul.

Song Fang looked at Song Wei with tears in her eyes, "Third Brother, if you really want to go, let me accompany you, and we will rest assured to many people."

——

Next door yard.

Erlang's wife heard that her father-in-law was gone, so she was so scared that she fell to the ground.

Before, my father-in-law went to the coal mine to make money but didn't call Erlang. She even blamed her mother-in-law for this. When she went out, she always talked about being a mother-in-law's bad heart, which was good. She never thought about their second wife.

Who would have expected that something happened in just two months!

Just when Erlang's wife didn't know whether she should be glad that Erlang hadn't gone or was sad that her father-in-law was gone, Song Erlang strode in and told her that she was going to accompany Song Wei to Dahuanshan to see.

Erlang's wife immediately came to her senses and grabbed Song Erlang's hand and refused to let him go.

"What are you doing? Let go!" Song Erlang glanced at her.

"You can't go!" Erlang's wife was firm, "Everyone, listen to me, Sanlang is a bad star, and the mute wife he just married, and even a devastating star. My father was defeated by the two of them. If you walk out of this door today, I may be forced to stay widow tomorrow."

In other matters, Song Erlang could tolerate his wife being careless, but now his father is gone, and this woman is still cursing him with sarcastic words. Song Erlang's anger in his heart blew up and immediately slapped her wife, "Tian Sufen, do you dare to say nonsense again? Do you believe it or not, I will slap you?"

Erlang's wife was stunned at first, but then she realized that she was even more angry than Song Erlang. She pushed him away, rushed out and brought the door, locked it from outside, and stuck a few thick wooden sticks by the window, determined not to let Song Erlang go out.

Song Erlang pushed the door and did not move, and pulled the window and the window didn't ring, so he could only curse in the house anxiously.

——

Song Erlang couldn't go, so you didn't have to guess that it was his second sister-in-law's idea. Song Wei didn't feel very surprised.

Wen's father was worried that Song Wei was alone, so he asked Wen Wan to prepare an extra oil lamp and planned to accompany him.

It's thunder and raining now, and it's still dark outside. Wen Wan is even more worried about her father-in-law and son-in-law, and said she wants to follow her.

Song Wei disagreed the first time, "Wanwan, you can stay at home to take care of your mother, I will just go with my father-in-law."

Wen Wan's face was full of anxiety.

My husband is an unlucky constitution. He can choke to death if he accidentally drinks a sip of cold water. If she doesn't follow her, who knows what will happen in such bad weather?

However, in Song Wei's eyes, she was just a delicate little girl who needed careful care. If he followed her, he would have to take care of her. This way, the road would be even more difficult.

Wen Wan didn't care about anything else, so she pulled Song Wei to the study, grind the ink quickly, picked up the pen and wrote on the straw paper: Take me with you, you are in danger, I can see it in advance.

Song Wei's eyes fell on the straw paper. Although those words were not neat, they could at least see which word was pronounced at a glance.

It is puzzling to be combined together.

As if worried that she had written something wrong, Song Wei asked, "If I were in danger, would you see it in advance?"

Um!

Wen Wanzheng focused his head, and his beautiful eyes were full of prayers, begging him to believe in himself.

Just as Wen Wan can't resist the charm of a mature man in Song Wei.

Whenever Song Wei faces his little wife, his resistance, which was originally as hard as a rock, would decrease.

So in the end, he nodded.

Wearing a straw raincoat, Wen's father opened the way in front, Song Wei was illuminating the lantern behind, and the father-in-law and son-in-law protected Wen Wan in the middle.

It is very difficult to walk on the rainy night. When we arrived at Dahuan Mountain, it was already late at night. The places where the oil lamps could illuminate were all rocks and soil washed away by heavy rain. The traces of mine were buried long ago, and there was no trace of a single person.

Seeing this, Wen's father couldn't help but curse, "The gang of officials who are damn officials retreated immediately, and they didn't expect to dig out the person. Once the night comes, the body will only be buried deeper and deeper. It is probably difficult to find someone."

Song Wei looked at the dilapidated and miserable situation in front of him, and he looked cold and he had already made sure that with the strength of his three people, it was impossible to dig open these collapsed places and dig out his father's body.

The fingers holding the oil lamp were clenched, and the lights of light shone out the hideous and terrifying blue veins on the back of his hand.

Song Wei said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow morning, I will go to the county government to beat the drum and make trouble."

At the moment, it seems that this is the only way to go.

The three returned without success.

When they got home, the lights were still on in the main room, and neither Song Ma Zi nor Song Fang nor daughter were sleeping.

Hearing the movement of opening the door, Mrs. Song hurried out and asked head-on, "Sanlang, what's going on? Have you found your father?"

Song Wei pursed his lips tightly, shook his head for a moment.

Mrs. Song's body trembled, tears in her eyes, and her crying was intermittent because of her hoarse voice.

Song Wei looked at Song Fang and said, "Send my mother back to her room to rest."

Song Fang looked helpless. If she could give it to her, she would have given it to her.

Such a big thing happened, let alone mother, she couldn't even sleep.

Song Wei rubbed his temples and said to Wen Wan beside him: "Wanwan will go back to sleep!"

Wen Wan refused and insisted on accompanying Song Wei.

Song Wei couldn't persuade him, so the few people sat there.

He refused to let his father-in-law work harder. When the rooster crowed, Song Wei saw that the rain stopped outside and advised Wen's father to go back. Wen's father sat still and said that he would accompany him to the county government.

Song Wei said: "My father-in-law just came back from the mine yesterday and went straight to our house. My mother-in-law and brother-in-law must be worried that they are broken. You should go back and report your safety."

Wen's father sighed, said, asking him to take care of himself and then got up and went back.

He was not in the mood to have breakfast, so Wen Wan took a basin of cold water and washed her face, and followed Song Wei to the county government office to beat the drums and complained about the wrongs.
