Chapter 245 Baby's Wish
In this situation, it is already a blessing that the people can be rescued, so there is no time to care about the belongings.
Zhu sighed, "When we came, it was snowing heavily outside. We couldn't see the people and things nearby clearly."
"If I wasn't familiar with the road, I would have gotten lost in the heavy snow."
Grandma Tao Yeye said with a worried look, "What I'm most worried about is that the food stored at home is gone and the snow is still falling."
"If that happens, people will starve to death."
Her family didn't have much food stored this year.
No one expected that there would be a snowstorm this year. In addition, the farmers were used to being frugal, and they wanted to find some food in the mountains during the winter, so they did not store much food.
result……
Mrs. Zhu was also worried about this problem. "I have so many young boys at home. I don't know if the food I have stored is enough to feed them."
"You can't let the kids at home starve."
"They are in the growth stage, they can't be left hungry."
Grandma Tao Yeye said, "If it really doesn't work, we can only go hungry."
"It's much better to be a little hungry than to starve to death."
Zhu also understood this, but the children in the family were all studying, and Niu Niu and the others were still practicing martial arts, so they absolutely could not go hungry.
"What do you think? Should we organize some people to go to town and buy things?"
Grandma Tao Yeye said, "I'm afraid it won't work."
"Putting aside the heavy snow, I'm thinking there might not be much food in town."
"If I were in your shoes and encountered something like a snowstorm, I would also save some food and supplies. I wouldn't sell them."
Zhu was very worried, "What should I do?"
"I don't know how long this snowstorm will last. I'm most worried about running out of food at home."
Grandma Tao Yeye said, "We can only wait and see."
"You should go back quickly. The ancestral hall is very cold."
Zhu said "OK" and picked up the wooden baby and walked out.
The baby insisted on coming out, saying that he had stayed at home for too long.
The child wants to play in the snow.
Mu Baobao noticed that several children had black and blue faces from the cold, and he thought to himself that he would never dare to go out on a snowy day again.
She didn't want to be frozen like this.
Zhu held her in her arms and walked forward with difficulty in the snow that was half a person's height.
Several people from the Liu family walked around, carefully protecting the grandparents and grandchildren.
"Mom, this year's snowstorm is too severe." Wang exhaled a puff of white air. "The snowstorm when I was a child wasn't this severe."
The Liu and Qian families had experienced that snow disaster.
"Yeah, that snowstorm wasn't this severe, and it didn't snow this heavily."
"We ordinary people are most afraid of snowstorms. Many people will freeze to death or starve to death."
Mubaobao really likes snow, but after hearing what her family said, she seemed to dislike it less.
Snow is not a good thing?
"Grandma, snow isn't always a good thing, is it?"
Zhu covered her entire face, leaving only her eyes exposed. "Well, snow isn't always good."
"Whether it snows heavily or lightly, winter is always very cold."
"It's better for us. We don't have to worry about being cold or hungry in the winter."
"But many families have to worry about being cold and hungry. It's already difficult for them to get through the winter safely."
"Not to mention, if there's a snowstorm, the situation will be even more serious."
Baby Mu looked up at the falling snowflakes, and a thought popped into his little head, "Grandma, it would be great if it didn't snow this year."
That way, grandma wouldn't have to worry about food, and so many people wouldn't have been in trouble because of the snowstorm.
Zhu thought she was just talking childishly and said, "How can it be that easy?"
"If God wants it to snow, no one can stop it."
Mu Baobao lay on her shoulder, mumbling a little, "I don't like snow anymore."
Zhu smiled and said nothing more. All children are like that.
It took a lot of effort for several people to return home.
When Mu Laodi and others saw them come back, they shook off the snow on their bodies and handed them hot water.
I was busy for a long time.
The Zhu family and their companions finally warmed up and took off their outermost clothes.
"Old man, not only is it cold at the ancestral hall, but there's also a lack of food," Zhu sighed. "We have so many young boys at home, I don't know if the food we have stored is enough."
"Also, I think some of the houses in the village are about to collapse."
Old Man Mu smoked his pipe and felt extremely fortunate. "I am only glad that I spent money to build a new house."
"Otherwise, our old house might not be able to withstand it, and it will be cold too."
It’s okay if they are older, they all went through that.
But the children can’t do that, because they are young and can’t get cold.
Zhu was also very grateful for this. She touched Mu Baobao's head and said, "It's thanks to Baobao that he helps the family make money. Otherwise, we wouldn't have the money to build a new house."
Mu Baobao chuckled, "Grandma, when spring comes, we'll make more money and buy more land."
"I also told my uncle that I want to buy a house in town."
Zhu never discouraged her children, nor did she think that their ideas were unrealistic.
She gave a thumbs up and praised, "Baby is great to have such a good goal."
"After spring, if I work hard to make money, I'll definitely be able to buy a house in town soon."
Baby Mu held his head high and said, "I will."
"Grandma, when I buy a house, we will move to town and make everyone in the village envy you."
Zhu was deeply moved and hugged her and kissed her several times, "You are indeed grandma's good baby!"
If the villagers could move to the town, they would be envied by people in the surrounding villages for the rest of their lives.
For the villagers, moving to the town is a very honorable thing.
Baby Mu waved his hands proudly, "Everyone in the family is moving to town!"
Her words made everyone in the family laugh.
"It would be nice to move to town, but I don't have any land here, and that makes me feel uncomfortable."
"It's difficult to grow anything in town. It's nothing like having your own land in the village."
"Towns have their advantages, and villages have their advantages. However, in a situation like this year, I would rather live in town. At least it would be more convenient to buy things, and I wouldn't have to worry about having nothing to eat."
The family members were chatting there, and Mu Baobao was counting on his fingers how much silver he needed to buy a house in town.
How much money does it cost to buy a house in the town?
"Brother, why did you come out?" Mu Niuniu was sitting at the door.
He has a bad temper, so he often sits at the door to cool down.
Mu Pingping looked a bit haggard and thin, and his whole spirit was low. "I'll sweep the snow."
Hearing his low and hoarse voice, Mu Niuniu shuddered twice. He really couldn't stand his eldest brother now.
The older brother who was full of energy and spirit is still the best.
"Brother, why don't you come back later to sweep the snow?"
He moved aside and said, "Come in first and warm yourself by the fire. Don't get cold."
Mu Pingping shook his head, his expression a little dull. "No, I have to finish my work here and do my homework."
