The neighbors were also in a panic. Some people took out their mobile phones to call, but still couldn't get through. Some were comforting their children, and some were hugging their families and celebrating their survival.
An earthquake message was pushed on the mobile phone. The epicenter of the earthquake occurred in the province next to them.
Fortunately, their area was not the epicenter of the earthquake, so the earthquake was not felt that strongly, the houses were not destroyed, and there were no casualties.
Qiao Yunshu's mood calmed down a little, but she was still flustered and thinking about her grandmother.
At this moment, Sister Li looked back at Qiao Yunshu and held her hand as if she had found a savior, "Yunshu, where is your grandma? My mother went to the back mountain with your grandma."
Qiao Yunshu's tears fell down and she shook her head, "Grandma hasn't come back yet, and I can't get through on the phone."
Aunt Wang from the neighbor's house helped her hold the baby and comforted her enthusiastically, "It's okay. It's normal for the earthquake to affect communications. We are in the countryside here, so the signal must be bad, but the earthquake here is not strong, so everything should be fine. of."
"My dad is also doing farm work in the back mountain. I told him not to go. He insisted on weeding the fields. Let's go and have a look together."
At this time, Director Wang from the village committee ran up not far away. He was panting and said, "No, the earthquake just caused the back mountain, the mountain collapsed, and the road was blocked. Whose family is in the back mountain?"
Hearing these words, Qiao Yunshu's brain buzzed, and there were no other thoughts. Her body seemed to have been drained of all strength in an instant. Her whole body was weak and unable to stand. She was about to kneel on the ground, or... The enthusiastic neighbors saw this, swarmed over and helped her up.
Everyone knows more or less about her family affairs and the child's life experience. Unfortunately, her mother died young and her father was not good to him. She has been dependent on her grandmother since she was a child. When she grows up, if something happens to her grandmother now, what will happen to Uncle Qiao Yun? He is truly alone.
So they all spoke one after another, saying comforting words, "Don't worry, it's just that the road into the mountain is blocked. It'll be fine if our village brings tools to clear the road."
"That's right, your grandma is not the only one in the back mountain. My dad is also in the back mountain. Let's work hard together."
"Nothing should happen to this little shock. Don't scare yourself. If you fall, what will happen to the two children?"
After hearing these words, Qiao Yunshu managed to calm down and looked at the two crying babies in Aunt Wang's arms.
The two lovely children of Yuxue seemed to give him endless strength, giving Qiao Yunshu a glimmer of hope in her heart, and a voice appeared in her head, telling her that she must be strong now.
When she was at a loss, her phone suddenly rang.
She subconsciously answered the phone, and Li Hanting's slightly panicked voice came from the phone.
In Qiao Yunshu's memory, men are usually calm and calm. Even if a gun is pressed to his forehead, he can keep his expression calm. It is rare for him to be so flustered.
"Yun Shu, I just saw the news that there was an earthquake. Are you okay?"
Hearing the man's voice, Qiao Yunshu's barely stable emotions finally couldn't help but collapse at this moment. The overwhelming despair and helplessness came over like a tide that had opened a floodgate, tightly surrounding her.
Her tears fell straight down like broken pearls, and she couldn't control the crying tone in her voice, "Li Hanting, my grandma went to the back mountain. I can't contact her now. The director just said that there was a landslide in the back mountain. Landslide, road blocked..."
"What should I do, Li Hanting? Grandma's legs and feet are not good and she is old. I'm afraid something will happen to her..."
Hearing the out-of-breath crying voice on the phone, the man's heart felt as if someone had pinched him so hard that he even found it difficult to breathe.
He comforted softly, "It's okay, don't worry. Is anyone going to clear the blocked mountain road now?"
"I'll arrange for someone to come over and help you right away." The man's deep voice calmed his anxiety to a certain extent at this moment, "Don't worry, grandma was so sincere when she went to worship Buddha and offer incense a few days ago. Buddha will definitely bless him. .”
Qiao Yunshu didn't even hear what he said clearly, and she didn't know what she said. In short, her brain seemed to be covered with paste and it was always in a state of chaos.
After hanging up the phone, she heard the children crying and did not expect to comfort the two frightened babies.
Aunt Wang patted her hand distressedly, "Good child, I know you are anxious now, worried that your grandma is okay. Everyone is helping to clear the mountain road, and everything will be fine. If you are really worried, go and have a look. Look, I’ll help you take care of the two children.”
Wang Wenli also had a serious look on his face and picked up tools such as shovels, "Let's go, let's work hard together."
The landslide was quite serious, with dozens of villagers surrounding it, and it was extremely laborious for one person to dig with a shovel.
Originally they wanted to hire excavators and shovels to help shovel the soil, but now it was just after the earthquake and they couldn't get anyone to come, so they had to rely on their own strength to shovel the ground one after another. dig.
They had just been digging for half an hour when a group of well-equipped people came from a distance. Someone drove a special shovel machine and large equipment and started to help without saying a word.
The village director was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but go up and ask the leader, "Comrade, are you..."
The leader lowered his head while digging in the soil and said, "Someone from Mr. Li invited us here."
Qiao Yunshu looked at them and couldn't tell how she felt. She didn't expect that in such a critical situation, a man far away in City A could help her.
With the help of so many people and large machines, the speed of clearing the mountain road was visibly faster. But what was unexpected was that just an hour later, two more waves of aftershocks occurred.
Qiao Yunshu's mood, which was already teetering on the edge of collapse, became even lower, and tears seemed about to fall again.
At this moment, they suddenly heard the sound of helicopter propellers circling and the roar of huge engines coming from the sky.
Everyone subconsciously looked up and saw a small helicopter flying at low altitude and trying to come down.
"Mr. Li, we can't find the flat ground here where we stopped the helicopter." The pilot looked at the ant-sized figure on the ground and reported to the man in the back seat.
Li Hanting's brows were slightly furrowed, with a sense of oppression that he was not angry about, and said, "Let go of the ladder."
"It's too dangerous, Mr. Li. You don't have enough experience. If you jump from such a high height, something big will happen if something unexpected happens. I can't make fun of your life."
