Two days later, the people guarding the entrance and exit of the brigade withdrew. It was said that the spies had caught him.
Even the people guarding Lu Yougen's family left. After Lu Guihua learned about it, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She had been on tenterhooks for several days. She almost thought her mother was a spy, but luckily she wasn't.
After scooping up two bowls of white noodles from home, Lu Guihua carried them and walked to her parents' house.
Her mother has been locked up for so many days, and she should be released today.
Her sisters had all married and moved to other villages and were unable to help. She had no choice but to go back and help clean up the house and make a bowl of noodles for her mother to avoid bad luck.
When they got home, Lu Guihua went in and called "Dad" several times, but no one answered. Instead, a weak voice came from Lu Fu's room.
Lu Guihua hurried in and took a look. She was shocked when she saw Lu Fubao lying on the kang with a disheveled look on his face.
"Fu Bao, what's wrong with you?"
"Fifth sister, cook me something to eat quickly, I'm starving to death."
"What? How long have you been hungry? Dad didn't make you anything to eat?"
Lu Fubao shook his head.
Lu Guihua was shocked! Her father has always held Fu Bao in the palm of his hand, how could he be willing to starve him?
Lu Guihua couldn't understand, but she hurried out to make food for Lu Fubao, only to find that the cabinet was locked. He had to use the white flour he brought to roll out a bowl of noodles for Lu Fubao.
Lu Fubao had been hungry for almost two days. Now that he ate the white noodles, he was really crying while eating them.
"Oh, eat slowly. What's going on? Did you quarrel with dad?" Lu Guihua felt very distressed.
Because they have been taught to love their younger brothers since childhood, the five Lu Guihua sisters love Lu Fubao very much.
Lu Fubao finished the white noodles, wiped his mouth, and said: "I don't know what happened to dad, but he suddenly ignored me and didn't give me food. Fifth sister, do you think dad is possessed by evil spirits?"
Lu Guihua covered Lu Fubao's mouth and said, "Fubao, don't talk nonsense. This is feudal superstition. Maybe my mother was caught and my father was worried, so he didn't take care of you."
"But he ate every meal himself, and he still picked up the food and ate it. Every meal was white rice and scrambled eggs, and even the bacon was steamed and eaten by him."
Lu Guihua:......
Her heart, which had just been relieved, began to feel anxious again.
Thinking of the disdainful look in Li Yue'e's eyes when she looked at her in the past two days, Lu Guihua always felt that something big was going to happen at home...
"Where's dad? Where's dad?"
Lu Fubao shook his head, "I don't know. After those people left, he followed them out."
"You stay at home, I'll go out and look for you." Lu Guihua hurried out.
It snowed intermittently for two consecutive days. Although it was not very heavy, most people stayed at home and did not go out.
Lu Guihua asked several family members, but they all said they had never met her father. I searched around the brigade and couldn't find it.
When asked about the village head family, that family seemed to have seen her father going out.
"I guess I might have picked up your mother," the uncle said.
Lu Guihua thought that it was really possible, so she went back.
Lu Guihua told Lu Fubao that if her parents came back, she would call her and then go back to her home.
There were two children at home, and Lu Weiguo had to eat when he came back from get off work. She had to go back and finish her household chores first.
However, until evening, Lu Fubao didn't come to call her. Lu Guihua was worried and hurried over again.
The house was still dark, Lu Fubao had eaten enough, and was lying on the kang sleeping soundly.
Lu Guihua patted him awake and asked, "Are mom and dad back?"
Lu Fubao shook his head, "Fifth sister, what should I do tonight?"
Lu Guihua sighed and went to the cellar to get some sweet potatoes and put them in the pot to cook.
"I cooked some sweet potatoes for you. You can light the fire yourself and then eat them yourself." After saying that, he hurried away, feeling very uneasy.
When I got home, I happened to see Lu Weiguo coming back from get off work, so he quickly asked: "Weiguo, did you see my parents on the way back?"
Her mother is at the commune police station, and Lu Weiguo also works in the commune. If she comes back, she should be able to see her on the road.
Lu Weiguo shook his head, "It's snowing like this. Apart from a few of us working, there's no one else on the road."
Lu Guihua muttered, "This shouldn't be the case." Could something have happened again?
So he hurried back to the main house and asked Lu Qing'an: "Dad, why hasn't my mother come back yet?"
After Lu Qing'an heard what Li Yue'e said, he felt very shameless.
When people from the brigade outside talk about this, they will definitely talk about the in-laws of the Lujiacun brigade secretary. What kind of bad luck did he have to do something like this?
Therefore, she didn't look kindly on Lu Guihua, "Your mother can't be released."
"Why? The guards at home have all been removed, which means my mother is not a spy."
"Your mother is indeed not a spy, but she didn't do any good things either." Lu Qingan snorted.
"What did my mother do?"
Lu Qing'an had no shame to say anything, so when he saw Li Yue'e coming from the kitchen, he asked Li Yue'e to speak.
When Li Yue'e finished speaking, Lu Guihua was stunned. She didn't know how to deal with herself for a moment. She returned home in despair and sat on the stool without saying a word.
Lu Weiguo also listened to it just now. He was very shameless when his in-laws did such a thing. He was also sitting on a stool, with his head lowered.
Although the two boys' stomachs were growling with hunger, seeing their parents acting like this, they didn't dare to say anything, so they had to go back to the kang and sit down.
Suddenly, Lu Guihua stood up, yelled "That's not right," and rushed out of the house.
Lu Weiguo asked "What are you doing" several times, but seeing that she ignored her, he just ignored her.
Seeing that there were steamed vegetables and big chunks of porridge in the pot, he picked them up and brought them to the kang to greet the two boys to eat.
Before she finished eating, she saw Lu Guihua rushing back.
"Weiguo, my father went out in the afternoon and hasn't come back yet." Lu Guihua said with a tearful voice.
"I looked for him at the brigade in the afternoon, but he was not there. Someone at the end of the village seemed to have seen him leaving the village. I, I thought... Weiguo, do you think something will happen to my father?" Lu Guihua said. As he spoke, tears came down.
Lu Weiguo also noticed something was wrong and quickly put the bowl down, "Speak clearly."
Lu Guihua told her everything that had happened since she went to her parents' house in the afternoon until now. Although the word order was a bit confusing, Lu Weiguo understood it.
My heart skipped a beat, fearing that something had really happened.
"Just wait, I'll tell dad." Lu Weiguo said quickly.
After Lu Qingan heard what Lu Weiguo said, he almost died of anger. What's going on? Things come in waves.
But he still set off quickly, first went to Lu Bao Country to talk about the matter, and then quickly gathered a group of young and middle-aged people, lit torches, and started looking for people.
Within an hour, someone who had gone up the mountain to look for him came down to report that he had been found.
But the man hanged himself, and his body was frozen to the bone.
After Lu Guihua heard this, she fainted immediately. Lu Fubao was also stunned, not knowing what to do.
