Even if Nona didn't want to believe it, but …

But...

When the entire winter was so cold that it could freeze someone to death, even the waterfalls on the mountain were about to freeze over, but … But there was still no snow …

Nona had no choice but to face the impending disaster.

"Ai …" This damned weather is getting colder and colder! "

"That's right, that's right. Why do you think the weather is so strange this year?"

"Yeah, yeah, that's really weird. Why are you so cold, but you can't see any snowflakes at all!"

"That's right. If it were in the past, it would have been like a snowflake covering the sky and covering the earth."

On the street, people were conversing among themselves, complaining about the strange weather this year.

However, no one realized what this year's weather represented.

Everyone just felt very cold, but there was no snow, so they were a bit irritated.

Only those old people who had seen a lot of things would frown … Her face was filled with worry …

Like an old widow.

"Hey, Grandma, it's time to eat!"

As the weather grew colder, Jiu Niang no longer allowed the Old Widow to cook. Since she was already old, it would be troublesome if she caught a cold or something.

With such poor medical standards, a small cold might be enough to take a person's life.

"Ai …" It's here! "

The old widow slowly climbed down from the bed and pushed the door open …

He stared at the blue sky and was stunned for a long time before sighing helplessly.

"Sigh!"

This kind of weather was really strange, and it seemed like … He seemed to have seen such days before. What time was it? The Old Widow could not remember clearly. It seemed that she was still very young when she was still like this …

Thinking back to that time, the Old Widow could not help but tremble all over.

"My life is short, why would I think of this! "Pei pei pei!"

Thinking of that terrible day, even the Widow couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of saliva in fright, complaining about what had happened to her.

She was clearly having a good life, but why did she think of those terrifying days?

That was a terrifying time. The amount of people who could have survived that time were simply too few. Even his brothers and sisters died on the way. Fortunately, he was lucky … Otherwise, he would have died long ago …

But... But why did he suddenly recall those days?

At least fifty or sixty years had passed. Back then, he was only three or two years old …

A child as old as himself had lost countless lives in that year. Those who were able to survive were truly lucky.

"Sigh, it must be because nothing happened recently that caused my imagination to run wild!"

Shaking her head, the Widow comforted herself.

Yes, it must be because it had been cold recently and he couldn't go anywhere and Nona didn't even let him cook. He really had nothing else to do, so he thought of those scary things.

"Grandma? What's the matter with you? "

No.9 saw that the Widow's expression was a little unsightly so she went up to inquire.

"It's fine, it's fine. I was just thinking about things from my childhood."

Shaking her head, the Widow did not hide anything. "At that time, I was still a three or two-year-old child and it was such a weird weather. Then there was a drought. Those who survived were lucky … "I don't know why, but it's probably because I haven't had anything to do recently. How did I think of the things from the past?"

Shaking her head, the Widow pursed her lips. A faint smile appeared on her aged face, but that smile did not reach her eyes.

He didn't know why, but there was still a strange feeling of worry in his heart, as if … It was as if something terrible was about to happen …

"Sigh, I've also heard of this before." Upon hearing the Widow's words, the pockmarked person carrying a firewood on his back interrupted, "When I was young, my grandfather told me that it was also said that it was extremely cold at that time of the year. The entire winter did not snow, and no one felt that there was anything amiss at first. However, it was still spring and there was no rain. In the summer, all the rivers had dried up and not a single drop of water could be found … That's when people started getting anxious … "

"Yeah, who knows how many people died that year. "In the past, my parents brought seven or eight siblings to escape together. In the end, only two or three survived …" As for the old widow, she shared the same sentiments. Although she was still young, she had begun to remember some of the things that had happened.

And those days, they were really poor people who were so hungry. Basically …

"My grandpa said there's still people eating people."

After the two of them had been together for a period of time, they slowly began to view each other as a family. Originally, they did not have much family members, and Ninth Madame and Old Widow only had two people. When the four of them were together, they really seemed like a large family.

"Sigh, how is that even a person? That month, people don't call me a person anymore. I call me two-legged sheep. "Meaning, sheep have four legs, and humans are sheep without two feet." When the Old Widow spoke of this, she could not help but sigh. Back then, if her parents were not sane, they might have been eaten like two-legged sheep.

"Two-legged sheep?"

This was the first time Jiu Niang had heard of such a thing. Wang Er and Ma Zi were also very curious.

Although they had once had a family, they had all died when they were very young, so they rarely heard of it. Now that they heard the Old Widow's words, their faces were filled with curiosity.

Three pairs of eyes stared at the old widow.

Immediately, the Old Widow became spirited as well.

I simply waved them over to the stove, and as they roasted, I said, "At that time, everyone was very hungry. This person was extremely hungry, being able to do anything. Some people were even willing to part with their own children. Some people couldn't bear to eat their own children, so they simply exchanged food. This guy ate people and was so scary when he said it, so everyone started to talk about sheep. "In any case, humans and beasts are the same during that time. Other than being able to speak, there's no other difference between them …"

The old widow started to talk about the days she had experienced. The more she talked, the more worried she became …

"At that time, I was still young and was always carried by my parents. You guys didn't know, but this child, if my parents didn't look after him properly, he might soon become someone else's meat."

Thinking about those children who had left their parents and immediately became the meat of their family, the Old Widow's heart was filled with terror.

Although so many years had passed, she still remembered it in her heart.

"Back then, it was exactly the same as this year, even the color of the sky is the same …"

As she spoke, the Widow looked up at the sky and began to panic again.

That's right, the sky back then was exactly the same as this. It was exactly the same, without any changes at all.

"Grandma, hurry up and eat. Stop thinking about it. It's okay!"

Nona had already known in her heart that this drought was unavoidable, and what it brought was famine …

The space was already filled to the brim with countless grains, but … But...

She suddenly realized that her desire to fight seemed to be too simple.

If he were to rely solely on his own strength, it would be impossible for him to accomplish it. Let's not talk about anything else …

When she heard the Widow say something about eating people, she had no confidence anymore. She could eat people like sheep, and she even made a two-legged sheep.

If … If only he could get food by then …

Hehe, she suddenly realized that she would be the most dangerous one.

"What's wrong with you? I don't seem very happy. "

With just a glance, Situ Jin could tell that this little girl was in a bad mood.

Even he couldn't tell what was going on. Her face was covered by a layer of white gauze all year round, and he couldn't see her face nor her expression … Alright, even if there was no white muslin on her face, he probably wouldn't be able to see her expression just from the pustules on her face, right?

He didn't know why, but as long as he saw her for himself, he would be able to tell if she was happy or not, happy or unhappy.

He couldn't even say what skill it was.

"No!"

Nona shook her head, still sitting on the same spot. Although there was no unhappiness on her face, she kept sighing.

"Sigh!"

She leaned against the door and tilted her head to look at the sky. Her hands were red from the cold, but she did not notice it at all.

Right now, her heart was truly in disarray.

He had originally been worried about the lack of food, but now that there was food, he couldn't help but worry about it.

"If you have something to say, just say it. I might be able to help you."

Looking at Jiu Niang, Situ Jin couldn't help but smile.

This girl seemed to be unable to hide anything. She was obviously a shrewd person who would die, but every time she felt happy or unhappy, it would always be so obvious that it would be difficult to see through her.

"I really don't have any. Besides …" Even if there's any trouble, you can handle it? "

Nona rolled her eyes and rolled her eyes at Situ Jin, still sighing.

Even if he was really the son of some rich family in the capital, or a rich second generation, it would be hard for him to be alone in the face of such a disaster.

"How would I know if I could help if you didn't tell me?"

After all, there were some things that he couldn't do himself, and only he knew how tricky this lass was. If he said anything that would displease her, she might just come looking for trouble with him.

However, he still didn't want to see her frowning like this. "You're my fiancee. If anything happened to you, would I still be fine?"

"You …"

Fiancee, fiancee your sister!

When Situ Jin said this, Jiu Niang was about to explode again.

But suddenly, he thought about it. Eh, he seemed to be right. The relationship between him and her, he really couldn't be alone, right?

Since it's like this …

"The thing is, if... If I tell you, if in the future... I said if, if a lot of people in the future don't have any food, but... But I still have a lot of food... Do you have a way? "

Although she was truly conflicted, Jiu Niang did not dare to tell him about the food she had, only asking him if he had it.

However …

What kind of person was Situ Jin? How could he not understand what Nona was saying?
