Mrs. Sun was a little timid and shook her head slightly, "Not yet, I'm afraid... I'm afraid I'll be back soon!"

Old Yang's gray brows knitted together and he patted the armrest of the wheelchair beside him irritably.

"It's already this hour and I still haven't come back, so I don't know what I'm doing!" he said.

Mrs. Sun was so frightened by Lao Yangtou's actions that she shrank her shoulders. Seeing this, Yang Ruoqing pulled Mrs. Sun back to sit down and said to Lao Yangtou: "Sir, please be patient. They will definitely settle the matter once it is over."

Come back, since you haven’t come back, you, Ah Jiu, must be delayed by something else.”

Old Yangtou said even more irritably: "Can I calm down? If you haven't come back at this time, it means that they wereted time moving the grave and burying it. It would be bad if it was wasted!"

Yang Ruoqing frowned and looked at the yard outside the house, feeling a little confused.

The old man's irritability is real, but the old man's concerns are also reasonable.

He left for the mountains before dawn. Whether it was raising the grave or re-burying it, it should be completed before the specific time.

Including the time it took them to go down the mountain, under normal circumstances, they should have gone home by this time.

Since he didn't come home, something must have gone wrong.

Thinking of this, Yang Ruoqing said to Old Yangtou again: "Wait a little longer. If you don't come back in half an hour, I will send someone into the mountain to see what's going on!"

Lao Yangtou frowned and nodded, but the gloominess on his face remained.

Mr. Tan remained silent and continued drinking tea.

Mrs. Liu remained silent and continued eating melon seeds.

Sun and Yang Ruoqing also sat back and continued to look after the two children.

But after what happened with Old Yang just now, although everyone didn't talk about it anymore, they were all paying attention to it in their hearts.

After a while, Ms. Liu couldn't sit still for the first time. She threw the melon seeds that were sticky with sweat into her mouth, and then got up and walked out.

"Fourth brother and sister, where are you going?" asked Sun.

Ms. Liu said: "I went to the river behind the village on behalf of our father to see why they haven't come back yet. There must be no relatives in the mountains staying to eat!"

The corner of Sun's mouth twitched as the fourth younger sister said this.

"Fourth Aunt can just look around after she goes to the village. If anything happens, just run back and tell us." Yang Ruoqing pulled Sun back to sit down again.

Mrs. Liu patted her chest and looked confident: "Don't worry, I'm just asking for information. Just wait for the news!"

After saying these words, Mrs. Liu ran out of the main room like a gust of wind and rushed into the scorching sun outside.

Tan curled his lips: "This man is really not afraid of the heat and can't sit still!"

No one responded to Tan's words and continued to do whatever they were supposed to do in the room.

Mrs. Liu ran away before even having a bowl of tea, and then she ran back again.

"Father, mother, third sister-in-law, Qing'er, this is terrible, something big has happened!"

She ran into the main room in panic, her tongue was curling as she spoke, and she was as excited as when she encountered gossip. At this moment, Ms. Liu's face was full of fear and expressionless!

Tuan Yuanyuan happened to be drinking water. When the two children heard Liu's movement, they stopped drinking water.

Everyone turned their little heads to look at Mrs. Liu, which shows that gossiping is not just something that happens to women. It is human nature and is innate.

Just because of acquired reasons, some people indulge their instincts infinitely, while others are able to rationally control all this.

"Look at your ghostly appearance, there is a ghost chasing you behind the clear sky and white sun!"

When Mrs. Tan saw Mrs. Liu's appearance, she became inexplicably angry, and immediately scolded Mrs. Liu angrily.

Mrs. Liu, however, was not angry at Mrs. Tan's scolding. Instead, she waved her hands vigorously and said in a trembling voice: "Mom, this is scarier than a ghost. Our second brother has turned into a corpse!"

"Zombie transformation?" Mrs. Tan looked stunned. She looked blankly at Old Yangtou aside, "Old man, what is corpse transformation?"

Lao Yangtou's face was darker than the bottom of the pot at the moment. He slapped the armrest of his wheelchair hard: "You stinky fellow from the fourth family, don't talk nonsense!"

But Mrs. Liu excitedly slapped her thigh: "If I tell nonsense, let me fall into the pond and drown as soon as I get out of this door!"

Old Yang narrowed his eyes and stared at Mrs. Liu dangerously.

Tan's eyes wandered back and forth between Old Yangtou and Liu, and he blinked, "What's the situation? What's the situation?"

Yang Ruoqing finished feeding Tuantuan in her arms, wiped the corners of Tuantuan's mouth, and stood up holding him.

"Well, what exactly is going on? Fourth Aunt, please take a breath and tell me from the beginning." Yang Ruoqing said.

Mr. Liu shook his head desperately, "I can't say anything. Your fourth uncle, your fourth uncle and the others are back. Tell them!"

As soon as Mrs. Liu finished speaking, she saw brothers Yang Huazhong and Yang Huaming swarming into the courtyard.

When Yang Ruoqing saw their faces, she felt something was wrong.

I even felt like they were missing something and they shouldn't have come back like this.

But there was something missing, and she couldn't remember it for a while.

However, at this moment, Old Yangtou had already spoken out and directly asked Yang Ruoqing's doubts in words.

"Then, third, fourth, and fifth, where are the guys you hold in your hands when you go out?"

After being reminded by Old Yangtou, Yang Ruoqing suddenly realized that this was indeed the case.

When my father, fourth uncle and fifth uncle went out to do that thing in the morning, they would definitely bring shovels, hoes, hatchets and other blunt instruments.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to dig out such a hard loess stone with your fingers, right?

If you take something out, you must bring it back.

In this era, the technology of metallurgy and iron-making was not very advanced, and only rich peasant families like Yang Huazhong could afford to purchase various iron-related agricultural tools.

Moreover, even so, the quality of some of Yang Huazhong's farm tools is not very good.

Because most of them are made of pig iron, they tend to curl up after a while. If left outside in the rain, they will also rust and corrode.

In the villages, there are even fewer peasant families who have a complete set of farm tools.

Many families only have a few low-quality farm tools, and some even don't have them yet, so they often borrow them from other people's homes.

For example, Yang Huazhong's family often borrows their farm tools from the villagers when farming is busy.

When they were sent back, some of the farm tools were damaged.

But Yang Huazhong and Sun were good people and never cared about that with the villagers.

He would just repair farm tools silently.

And Blacksmith Luo, who is just across the wall, can just repair it.

Having said so much, Yang Ruoqing just wanted to say that farm tools and ironware are relatively valuable items in this era, and for farmers, they cannot be discarded easily.

Why don't dad and the others bring the things back?

Mr. Tan also spoke up: "Third brother, your father is asking you a question. Why didn't those guys who were taken out bring anything back? Is there a mine at home? Are they littering?"
