Chapter 421: Sad Past1

Back from Qingyuan Town, Zhou Xiaofeng seemed very tired, he fell asleep on Hu Feng’s bed just before lunchtime.

Bai Zhi came into the room silently and covered him with a thin quilt. She looked at his thin figure and sighed inside her heart. In this world, there were many poor children like Zhou Xiaofeng. She doesn’t know how many of them don’t have parents, food or clothes to cover their bodies.

How good would it be if there is no war, no poverty, and no heartless abandonment in this world?

When lunch was ready, Zhou Xiaofeng hadn’t woken up yet. They couldn’t bear to wake him up, so they ate first, leaving him enough meals. They put it inside the pot to keep it warm.

But, who would have thought that when Zhou Xiaofeng woke up, it was already evening?

The sky outside has become dim. The daytime in the autumn has become much shorter. It was not night yet, but the wind became slightly cold.

The table was full of fragrant meals, and the other side of the table was also decorated with moon cakes and fruits. The thick red candle as thick as the forearm has been lit, giving warmth in the whole surroundings.

“Xiaofeng you’re awake! Are you hungry? Another dish will be served for dinner. You go and wash your face first, everything will be ready soon.”

Zhao Sue and Ru’er were playing in the living room, while Zhou Awu and Hu Changlin were chopping wood in the front yard.

Zhou Xiaofeng asked Zhao Sue: “Sister-in-law, what about Bai Zhi?”

Before Zhao Sue could answer, Ru’er busily said: “I know, I know, Sister Bai is cooking in the kitchen. Sister Bai’s cooking skills are very good, everything she cooks is delicious.”

Zhou Xiaofeng smiled and patted Ruer’s head: “Ru’er is lovely, you play first. I’ll wash my face.”

When Zhou Xiaofeng went to the backyard, he smelled a strong scent. He doesn’t feel hungry at first, but when he smelled that scent, his stomach began to grumble.

Bai Zhi came out of the kitchen with the sweet and sour pork ribs in hand. She met Zhou Xiaofeng right after heading out: “You woke up? Did you have a nice sleep? Are you hungry?”

Zhou Xiaofeng hurriedly shook his head: “I’m not hungry, I’m not hungry yet.” As soon as he said he was “not hungry”, his stomach made a couple of sounds.

Zhou Xiaofeng rubbed his grumbling stomach and awkwardly smiled.

Bai Zhi then pointed his finger on the water tank to side: “There is clean water over there, you wash quickly, so you can eat.”

Seeing Bai Zhi leaving with the dish, he hurriedly went to the tank to wash his hot face. The water in the tank was very cold, after washing his face several times, the heat on his face subsided.

Back in the dining room, everyone was sitting and waiting for him.

In an eight immortal table full of delicious dishes, there were seven people in different sizes sitting on it with full of smile in their face.

It’s been a long time since he had seen such a friendly and warm atmosphere.

He even thought that he’ll never have such a good life for the rest of his life.

While having meals, Zhou Awu asked Zhou Xiaofeng: “How have you been these years?”

Everyone tried not to ask him what happened three years ago. Everyone already knows what happened. If Zhou Awu didn’t escape immediately that year, Ru’er will not live until now.

Zhou Xiaofeng put down the chopsticks in his hand, as his eyes filled with sadness. He would never forget that scene three years ago, he never thought that his life will be very difficult after losing his loved ones.

“If I’m not reprimanded by my teacher in the school and came back late, I would have been dead by now. All the 28 people in our house died.” His hands trembled a bit, he always had a chill whenever he tried to recall what happened that day.

Before his mother breathed her last breathe, she told him that his father was not a spy. He can’t be a spy. She told him to believe in his father, and he must find a way to look for his father.
