The sky was gloomy, Mu Shi looked at the black clouds in the sky, and said to Mu Yangling: "I'm afraid it will snow again tomorrow, and I don't know what's going on with your aunt's house. Dad will get up early tomorrow and go to your aunt's house to have a look. By the way Clear the road in the mountains."

"Father, it's dangerous to walk on the mountain road with such heavy snow."

Mu Shi smiled slightly, touched her head and said, "The snow in the mountain is blocked by trees, and it is less than the snow outside. Even if the mountain road is difficult, Dad has experience. Don't worry, you won't fall."

Mu Yangling glanced back at Shu Wanniang, and said in a low voice, "Father, then you have to come back quickly, my mother has been a little restless these days."

Mu Shi also looked back at his wife. The day of giving birth is about a month away. I don't know if the sudden change in the weather made Wanniang feel uncomfortable. She always frowned these two days and couldn't sleep at night. .

Mu Shi didn't dare to leave home for too long, so he said: "Don't worry, dad will be back soon. If your mother is not feeling well, you can go to uncles and grandmas and ask them to come and help."

Having said that, Mu Shi didn't want to hand over his wife to others, so he got up the next day while Shu Wanniang was still sleeping, got dressed, didn't eat breakfast, and went straight to Xishan Village.

It took Mu Yangling three quarters of an hour to cross the mountain, and Mu Shi only walked for three quarters of an hour when the snowy road was difficult to walk. When he arrived at Xishan Village, he saw Ma Liu's house. Cooled down.

Half of the house on the left side of Ma's house was crushed by the snow. Xiuhong's two children were wearing cotton jackets around the brazier, but there was wind leaking from one side.

Mu Shi searched around but didn't see Mrs. Ma Liu. His eyes sank, he strode into Ma's house, "Xiuhong, where's your grandma?"

Ma Xiuhong raised her head in surprise, and shouted with red eyes, "Cousin!"

When Ma Xiulan saw Mu Shi, she cried "Wow".

Xiuhong wiped her tears and said: "Grandma went to the village head, our house collapsed, grandma went to the village head yesterday, and asked everyone to help build a house, but the village head said that many houses in the village are in ruins. There was a disaster, and I couldn’t take care of my family for the time being. Last night we sat around the brazier all night, and grandma didn’t let us go to sleep. At dawn, grandma went to find the village chief.”

The village chief of Xishan Village is also the patriarch of the Ma family. Mu Shi is well aware of the Ma family's diabolical nature. Besides, every household was indeed affected by the snowstorm. Linshan Village is because of the presence of Liu He, who takes the family as his own responsibility, and The most important thing is reputation, which is why he often puts his own family last and helps others to overcome difficulties first.

The patriarch of the Ma family does not have these virtues. The most important thing is that Liu He has the prestige of being unambiguous in Linshan Village. The patriarch of the Ma family thought that Ma Dagui dared to point at the nose of the head of the Ma family and curse, Mu Shi did not think they could help Dagui. Aunt builds a house.

Judging by the weather, there might be another heavy snowfall this afternoon or evening. If they really stayed overnight in such a house, even if they stayed awake, they would be seriously ill if they didn't die.

Mu Shi said: "Clean up, my cousin will take you back to my house."

Xiuhong's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again, and said: "I don't know if grandma will agree?"

"You just take out all the things at home, and I will talk to your grandma later."

Ma Xiuhong knew where her valuables were, and Ma Liushi was old, and she was afraid that she would go there one day, so she told her eldest granddaughter where the money and land deeds were hidden at home.

The Ma family only had these few valuable things, and their food and clothes and the bacon sent by Mu Yangling earlier.

Ma Xiuhong took all these things into a large pannier, and when Ma Liushi came back, she had almost packed them.

"Go to live at your house?" Ma Liu's eyes widened, glanced at the two granddaughters, nodded after a moment of hesitation, and said, "Okay, it's just that there are so many things at home, and I can't take them all at once."

For the rest, the Ma family's food was piled up in the house, and Mu Shi would definitely not be able to carry it.

Mu Shi laughed and said, "Auntie, why don't you store the food here first, and after a while, my cousins ​​and I will come and help you fix the house when the clan gets their hands on it."

Ma Liushi wiped away her tears and nodded with a sob, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Ma Liu took two wild rabbits to find Ma Zhang, and asked their family to help keep the food at home.

Mrs. Ma Zhang has benefited a lot from Mu Yangling during this time. Seeing that Mrs. Ma Liu was accompanied by Mu Shi and seeing her bring things over, she was naturally willing, so she immediately called her man to bring the food with Mu Shi. Several nearby houses were invited to testify.

Mu Shi is very strong, and it is enough to go back and forth a few times. He was worried about his wife, so he transported the food to Ma Zhang's house, and said to Ma Liu, "Auntie, let's go."

"Go from the mountain?" Ma Liu looked at the white snow on the trees on the mountain.

"I'm holding two children, auntie don't worry, nothing will happen." Their big back basket was not full, and Mu Shi put Xiulan in the back bag directly. Although she was seven years old, she looked like her. It's the same size as a blog post, so it fits just right in the pannier.

Mu Shi told Xiulan, "Hold on to the ropes on both sides of the basket tightly for a while, don't be afraid, tell grandma and cousin if you have anything, you know?"

Xiulan nodded cautiously.

Mu Shi wanted to hug Xiuhong, but Xiuhong said, "Cousin, I can walk by myself."

Mu Shi didn't force himself, he directly supported Ma Liushi and Xiuhong from left to right and walked forward. When the road was narrow, he leaned sideways to help them down. They were all a little embarrassed, but fortunately they came out after only walking for more than half an hour.

Seeing that their lips were blue from the cold, Mu Shi said, "Let's go home quickly, so you can warm up too."

There are five rooms in the Mu family, except for the one in the middle which is used as the main room, the one on the left where Mu Shi and Shu Wanniang lived, the one on the right where Mu Yangling and Xiao Bowen lived, and the other one was piled up with sundries, and the remaining one was for use. to spare.

Shu Wanniang originally planned to move Xiao Bowen out of the room in the spring of next year and live in a room alone.

Their siblings are getting older, and it is not appropriate to live together anymore.

So that room was very clean, the kang and quilts were all ready-made, and the grandparents and grandchildren could live in it with a little tidying up.

Mu Yangling boiled hot water in the kitchen to warm them up, "You guys will feel comfortable after taking a bath in a while."

Ma Xiuhong shrank back in shame, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, cousin."

Mu Yangling glanced at her soaked shoes and pudding-covered padded coat, and said with a smile, "cousin, why don't you come and help me light the fire, I'm not very good at housework."

Ma Xiuhong said happily: "Okay, cousin go to rest, I'll light the fire." Ma Xiuhong pulled her sister to squat in the kitchen to light the fire.
