It's just that this day is very cold, and the north wind blows before noon, and the clouds gradually thicken, like a pile of old rags that can't be washed, and become dusty. After a while, they float up snowflake.

At first, it was still small, and it only fell sporadically, but at about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, it began to fall with heavy snow, which soon turned the sky white.

No matter how much the grandparents and grandchildren were having fun in the midst of suffering, they would inevitably become anxious at this moment. They were all thinking about Hui Niang, fearing that she would freeze to death outside.The girl wanted to deliver a piece of clothes several times, but was stopped by the old couple.

"Your body is not in good shape. If you freeze or fall in such a heavy snow, your mother will worry about it. Instead, go and see if there is any ginger in the kitchen. Finely chop it and give it to you." Mother boiled a bowl thickly, and when she came back to drink it, it would be a good way to escape the cold."

The girl hurriedly went to do it, and thought that it was too cold, and the old man couldn't bear it, so she dragged all the broken tables and chairs left after the fire in the yard to the backyard, and chopped up the half piece of Xishi tofu signboard together. Come into the house and use it as firewood.

Aunt Shi was still a little bit reluctant, but Father Shi figured it out, "Just burn it, can it still be used? Just recite blessings, don't make the fire too big, your grandma and I are not cold, wait until your mother comes back Burn again."

"It's okay, let's burn it first, there are still more in the yard." The girl told a little lie, but secretly made up her mind that if it was still so cold tomorrow, she would sneak out to collect firewood.

Maybe it was because they were too worried about Hui Niang, or they trusted their granddaughter too deeply, so the old couple didn't notice that those wet logs that had been soaked in wind, frost, rain and dew in the yard burned so well that they didn't even smoke. Take an extra wisp.

On a snowy day, it gets dark very quickly.The hearts of the whole family became tighter and tighter.

But Niang Hui waited left and didn't come back, waited right and didn't come back, until the clapper rang in the next day, the girl couldn't wait any longer.Holding a broken umbrella, I am going to find someone.

The old couple were also very anxious. Seeing that there was really no way to stop them, Father Shi took off the only big cotton coat he had on his body, asked his granddaughter to wrap it tightly, and watched her put on a headscarf before allowing her to go out.

The night is getting heavier, the wind is violent and the snow is heavy.

Against the wind, the girl struggled forward in the knee-deep snow.Even though she was wearing so much, the bitter cold wind was still blowing into her thin and thin body like ice skates, cutting her body like Ling Chi, so that everyone felt the cold and pain from the bottom of her body.

Thinking that Niang Hui was running around for the family's livelihood in such severe cold every day, the girl bit her lips that were black and purple from the cold, and became even more impatient to find her mother as soon as possible.

Fortunately, I just walked out of two alleys, and by the lights of other people's houses, I saw a familiar figure in a coir raincoat leaning on the wall, limping back.

"Mom! What's the matter with you, mother?" The girl cheered in surprise and joy, and with the strength she didn't know where she came from, she hurried forward to meet her.

"Slow down! Nianfu, slow down, and slide carefully! Mother is fine, she just fell!" Hui Niang's voice was dry, revealing extreme exhaustion, but her worry and anxiety for her daughter remained undiminished.

The short distance seemed so long to her.After finally waiting for her daughter to walk in front of her, Madam Hui blamed her first, "It's snowing so hard, why don't you stay at home? Why are you running out?"

The girl held up the broken umbrella to cover her mother, "Aren't you worried about you? Why didn't you come back until now?"

Hui Niang's voice darkened suddenly, and she said in a low voice, "We'll talk about it when we go back."

The girl knew that there must be an accident, and it was inconvenient to ask more questions when she was outside. She supported her mother who was about to freeze into a popsicle, and the mother and daughter went home despite the wind and snow.

When they entered the house and looked under the bright lights, the whole family was shocked.

Hui Niang was drenched from head to toe, with scratches on her hands and forehead, her complexion was pale, cold and tired, she looked extremely embarrassed.

Father Shi's heart sank, "How did you do this? What happened today?"

Madam Hui looked at her daughter and forced a wry smile, "Nianfu really hit the mark!"

Speaking of today's experience, Hui Niang felt like a nightmare.

As soon as she arrived at Ouyang's house today, before she could go to the third wife to return the pair of earrings, she was stopped by Mrs. Zou in the kitchen.With a half-smile, he took her to the backyard, saying that the New Year was approaching, and Ouyang's family had shown kindness, and wanted to offer some dried tofu and other things to the surrounding temples, and then pointed to the big vat of soaked soybeans and asked Hui Niang to go. Mill, not even a little donkey.

Now Huiniang finally believed what her daughter said was true, but she wanted to intercede with Sister-in-law Zou, but she refused to talk to her at all, and just kept urging her to work.Hui Niang had no choice but to start work.

When Mrs. Shi heard about it, her heart ached and she burst into tears, "You silly boy, you quit your job and came back when you knew people bullied you! What are you still doing there as an animal?"

Hui Niang took a look at the two elders and said, "Where can I get those?"

But a pair of cold hands were held by the daughter, seeing the girl's tearful but understanding eyes, Hui Niang felt very relieved.With the family's situation like this, if she quits the job, will the family really be able to drink the northwest wind in this cold winter?

So what happened next, Hui Niang was afraid that the old man would worry, so she refused to go into details.He just said, "Actually, I don't feel tired when I work. It's just that the young master of his family is really a good man. He originally lived in the room next to the backyard. He listened to me for a long time, and then it snowed so heavily, so he dismissed him." Someone came and asked me to rest. I hadn’t finished my work at that time, and I didn’t dare to rest for fear of causing trouble to others. The young master of his family asked someone to bring his horse to grind the remaining beans for me. He also lent me a coir raincoat, and I won’t come back until I’m done.”

She glanced at her daughter again, tried to smile and said, "But before I leave, I will listen to you and send the pair of earrings to the third wife. I thought that the third master was probably at home at this time, so he didn't enter her room." In the courtyard, I just quietly gave the things to the little girl at the door, and then said what your godmother said. When the little girl came out, she said that the third wife asked me to go tomorrow. Obviously, it’s all right .”

Seeing her pretending to be relaxed, Aunt Shi opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything.

Tomorrow is the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, and the new year will begin.According to the general practice, if Hui Niang goes to do part-time work for others like this, she should receive a red envelope for the holiday.But now that the third wife is saying this, it is clear that Hui Niang will go to Ouyang's house to help throughout the year, and she is tired from this.

Seeing the sad look of the two elders in silence, Hui Niang tried her best to smile again, "Okay, I'm exhausted today, so I won't tell you any more. Recite blessings, come here and help Niang go back to sleep, eat yourselves, I'm here Ouyang's family has eaten it, so there is no need."

But this pale face, how does it look like he has eaten?I'm afraid I haven't had a sip of hot soup all day, have I?But the girl didn't say anything, she bent down and almost exerted all her strength to help her limp mother up and carried her back to the room.

But how could the remaining two elders fail to see the inside story?Looking at each other, weeping.

After returning to the room, Madam Hui no longer had the strength to pretend, her face was full of exhaustion, "Recite blessings, take off your clothes for mother, mother really can't move."

The girl held back her tears, and answered with a strong nasal voice. First, she waited for Madam Hui to lie down, and then went to the kitchen. She washed two eggs in the brown sugar ginger soup that had been boiled earlier, and then mixed some flour to make a bowl. Sweet and spicy pimple soup was brought to her.

Hui Niang was so tired that she couldn't even open her eyes, she didn't know what she was eating, she just kept swallowing mechanically, but the way she was devouring it made the girl feel even more sad.

After she finished eating, the girl brought hot water to wash Niang Hui's body. After her cold body was warmed up, the girl reassuredly turned on the brazier in the house so that Niang could sleep well.

Turning around and serving grandma and grandpa for dinner again, I couldn't help comforting the old couple and telling them not to worry too much.After the whole family had fallen asleep, the girl locked the door and turned off the lights, and slept with Niang Hui with the quilt in her arms, trying her best to keep her warm.

The snow stopped in the middle of the night.But when the girl woke up early in the morning, she saw Hui Niang lying there with flushed cheeks, her forehead was hot when she touched it with her hand, it was obvious that although she had taken all the precautions yesterday, the cold air entered her body and she had a fever.

The girl immediately jumped out of bed, and was about to ask for a doctor when she opened the door, but Hui Niang was also awake, and refused to let her out no matter what, "It's such a cold day, don't go out! Mother is fine, go back and do some work, and you'll be fine if you sweat." alright."

Seeing that she had to go to Ouyang's house, Aunt Shi was so anxious that she shouted from the next door, "Hui Niang, what kind of work are you doing when you are so sick? Forget it! There is still some food at home, if not, just take your newly made cotton padded clothes Pawn it, let's take care of your illness first. Even if my mother is going to beg for food, I can't make you two go hungry!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? We can get rid of this old face, what do you want the child to do?" Father Shi's words made Aunt Shi dumbfounded.

Yes, they can beg for food regardless of face, but the granddaughter is already engaged, and she is still a wealthy family in the city. How can she have a pair of beggar grandma and grandpa?

I only heard Father Shi say again, "Nianfu, you should go to Aunt Li and sell our house. Although the house is burned down and it is worthless, this land is still worth a lot. Let others Please do me a favor, let us move after this winter."

The girl stood up abruptly, "Grandma and Grandpa, don't worry, I have a solution. Mom, you just lie down and I'll talk about it at Ouyang's house!"

"You child, what are you going to do..." Hui Niang still wanted to force herself to get up, but as soon as she raised her head, she felt that her head seemed to weigh a thousand catties, her eyes turned black, she fell down again, she couldn't see clearly, her daughter was weak The small figure disappeared outside the door.

Not long after, Aunt Li next door brought her eldest granddaughter, 12-year-old Hongyu, "Don't worry about your family, you just came to my house to recite blessings and told everything. I let the child's father lead Nianfu goes to Ouyang's house and invites a doctor later. Hongyu will stay here, if you need anything, you can call her. Hongyu, go to the kitchen and make breakfast."

Things have come to this, and the three members of the Shi family have no choice but to hope that their granddaughter can go to Ouyang's house to ask for a few days off.Unexpectedly, when Uncle Li led the doctor back, he told them, "Your family read a blessing and said that they were willing to work there instead of her mother, so the Ouyang family left her behind."

When Hui Niang heard this, she was extremely shocked.How could the work of Ouyang's family be so easy?She was about to lift the quilt immediately, and the doctor said angrily, "Are you desperate? If you don't want your life, then you don't need to invite me to see it!"

Uncle Li hurriedly stopped Hui Niang, "Listen to me, your family is very clever in reading blessings. She told people that she was too young to do any fine work, that is, lighting a fire was okay, but somehow she put It made sense. I saw that making a fire was not tiring, and I couldn't get cold, so I left with confidence. Before she left, she asked me to tell you, don't worry about her, she will take care of herself. But you must listen to the doctor, Mrs. Hui If so, it’s better to take medicine. Otherwise, what will you do if you make her a child who has lost her father and mother?”

The last sentence hit Madam Hui's heart hard.

Lie down without any resistance, let the doctor feel the pulse and prescribe the medicine, all I can do is hope that I will get better, but I miss the daughter of Ouyang's family even more.I have suffered a big loss at my age, can she handle it at such a young age?
