The sky was gloomy, Mu Shi looked at the dark clouds in the sky, and said to Mu Yangling: "I'm afraid it will snow tomorrow, and I don't know how your aunt's house is going. Tomorrow, Dad will go to your aunt's house early to see, by the way. Clear the road in the mountains."
"Father, with such heavy snow, it is very dangerous to walk on the mountain road."
Mu Shi smiled slightly, touched her head and said, "The snow in the mountains is blocked by trees, which is less than the snow outside. Even if the mountain road is difficult to walk, Dad has experience. You can rest assured that you will not fall."
Mu Yangling looked back at Shu Wanniang and said in a low voice, "Father, then you have to come back quickly, my mother is a little restless these days."
Mu Shi also looked back at his wife. There was still about a month before the delivery date. She didn't know if the sudden change in the weather made Wan Niang uncomfortable. She always frowned and couldn't sleep at night. .
Mu Shi didn't dare to leave the house 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 your aunt and grandmother and ask them to come and help."
said so, but Mu Shi didn't want to give his wife to someone else, so the next day when Shu Wanniang was still sleeping, he got up and put on his clothes. He didn't eat breakfast, and went straight to Xishan Village.
It took three quarters of an hour for Mu Yangling to go over the mountain. When it was difficult to walk on the snowy road, Mu Shi only walked for three quarters of an hour. When he arrived at Xishan Village, when he saw Ma Liu's house, Mu Shi's whole face was full of expressions. Chilled down.
The house on the left side of Ma's house was crushed by snow. Xiuhong's two children were wearing padded jackets around the brazier, but the wind was leaking from one side.
Mu Shi looked around and didn't see Ma Liu's, his eyes were a little dark, and he strode into Ma's house, "Xiuhong, where's your grandma?"
Ma Xiuhong raised her head in surprise and shouted with red eyes, "Cousin!"
Ma Xiulan cried with a "wow" when she saw Mu Shi.
Xiuhong wiped her tears and said: "Grandma went to the village chief, our house fell down, grandma went to the village chief yesterday, and wanted everyone to help build a simple house, but the village chief said that many people in the village are in bad condition. After the disaster, I can’t take care of my house for the time being. Last night, we sat around the brazier all night. Grandma didn’t tell us to sleep. At dawn, grandma went to the village chief.”
The village head of Xishan Village is also the head of the Ma family. Mu Shi is well aware of the urination of the Ma family. What’s more, this snow disaster has indeed affected every household. It is because Liu He is in Linshan Village. Reputation is the most important thing, which is why I always put my own family last and help other people's families through difficulties first.
The patriarch of the Ma family does not have these virtues. The most important thing is that Liu He has unequivocal prestige in Linshan Village. The patriarch of the Ma family thinks that Ma Dagui dares to point the nose of the patriarch of the Ma family and curse, Mu Shi does not think they can help the big family. The aunt built the house.
Look at the weather, I'm afraid there will be another heavy snowfall this afternoon or night. If they really spend the night in such a house, even if they don't fall asleep, they will be seriously ill.
Mu Shi said: "You pack up, my cousin will take you back to my house."
Xiuhong's eyes lit up, but darkened again, and said, "Don't you know grandma would agree?"
"Just take out all the things in the house, I'll tell your grandma later."
Ma Xiuhong knew where her valuable things were. Ma Liu was getting old and afraid that she would go away someday, so she told her eldest granddaughter where the money and land deeds were hidden.
The Ma family has only these things that are valuable, as well as their food and clothes and the bacon sent by Mu Yangling before.
Ma Xiuhong took a big backpack and packed all these things. By the time Ma Liu came back, she had almost packed up her things.
"Going to live at your house?" Ma Liu's eyes widened, he glanced at his two granddaughters, nodded after hesitating, and said, "Okay, it's just that there are so many things in the house that I can't take it for a while."
The rest is worth it, the Ma family's food is piled up in the house, and Mu Shi will definitely not be able to carry it.
Mu Shi smiled and said, "Auntie, why don't you store the food here first, and after a while, the clan will pull out their hands. My cousin and my cousin will come over to help you get the house done."
Ma Liu wiped a handful of tears and nodded choked up, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Ma Liu brought two hares over to find Ma Zhang, and asked their family to help keep the food at home first.
Ma Zhang received a lot of benefits from Mu Yangling during this period. Seeing that Ma Liu was accompanied by Mu Shi, and seeing that she brought something over, she was naturally willing, and immediately asked her man to carry the food with Mu Shi. He also invited several nearby households to testify.
Mu Shi is very strong, and it is almost enough to go back and forth a few times. He was worried about his wife at home, so he transported the food to Ma Zhang's house, and said to Ma Liu: "Aunt, let's go."
"Walking from the mountain?" Ma Liu glanced at the white snow on the trees on the mountain.
"I'm holding two children, aunt can rest assured that nothing will happen." Their big back basket was not full, and Mu Shi directly put Xiulan in the back basket. The blog posts are the same size, so it just fits in the backpack.
Mu Shi instructed Xiulan, "For a while, you have to hold the ropes on both sides of the back basket tightly, don't be afraid, and tell your grandma and cousin if you have anything, you know?"
Xiulan nodded cautiously.
Mu Shi wanted to hug Xiuhong, but Xiuhong said, "Cousin, I can go by myself."
Mu Shi did not force himself, he directly supported Ma Liu and Xiuhong from left to right, and when the road was narrow, he leaned on his side to help them down. When the four came out of the mountain, their bodies were more or less heavy They were all a little embarrassed, but fortunately they came out after only walking for more than half an hour.
Mu Shi saw that their lips were blue from the cold, so he said: "Let's go home quickly, and you can also warm up."
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 live, the one on the right where Mu Yangling and Xiao Bowen live, and the other one is filled with debris, and the other one is used for living. to spare.
Shu Wanniang originally planned to move Xiao Bowen out of her room in the spring of next year and live in a room alone.
As their siblings get older, it is not suitable for them to live together anymore.
So the room was very clean, and the kang and quilt were ready-made.
Mu Yangling boiled hot water in the kitchen to warm them up, "You guys will feel better after taking a shower in a while."
Ma Xiuhong shrank back in shame and whispered, "Thank you cousin."
Mu Yangling glanced at the soaked shoes on her feet and the padded padded coat on her body, and said with a smile, "Cousin, why don't you come and help me make a fire, I'm not very good at housework."
Ma Xiuhong said happily: "Okay, cousin, go to rest, I'll start the fire." Ma Xiuhong pulled her sister and squatted in the kitchen to start the fire.
