It's too hard to flee famine, don't be afraid! Evil mother-in-law has a system

Chapter 37 Trapped in the Inn

Station.

Gu Fugui squatted on the ground, smoking a dry cigarette, looking at the heavy snow in the sky, his eyebrows and eyes furrowed together.

Their family used bamboo mats and haystacks to surround a small space so that the family could temporarily escape the snowstorm.

The banquet is not big, so more than a dozen people can only squeeze together.

This short-term difficulty is not what Gu Fugui is most worried about. He is worried that if it continues, the situation will only get worse.

Yesterday he was very confident about rebuilding Dahe Village.

But now he no longer dares to think about rebuilding his home, and there are more and more refugees. The first person has died on the way to escape, and the second and third will soon follow.

"Cough, cough"

Mrs. Li was coughing and stirring the porridge. She was Gu Fugui's wife. She was ill last night. She walked in the snow for so long today and her condition became more serious.

"If you are not in good health, let your wife do the work."

Gu Fugui looked at his old wife, worry flashed in his eyes. The old wife's health was not good to begin with, and now she was sick. She didn't even have herbal medicine, so she could only fight hard.

"I happen to have plenty, so I'll give it to you. It's okay for us adults to be affected by the cold, but we can't freeze the children."

"So, when you are not strong enough, you must learn to take advantage of the situation."

"I think Mom did the right thing. Everyone's conditions are poor now, so by comparison, our family will be considered good."

In this cold weather, it is easy to become overwhelmed.

Gu Laoer was walking outside and heard the villagers talking about his mother. He was very angry. When he came back and heard his wife's words, he immediately went out on the street.

Gu Dashuan and his brothers quickly went to cut bamboo. The problem of freezing was solved, which solved a big problem.

"Mom, my son doesn't have any ideas. You can do whatever you want."

Mrs. Li was a little embarrassed that she was so cold to her because of the past. She didn't expect that Li Wei would be willing to give such a precious medicine to herself regardless of her past grudges.

"Sister-in-law, you cough so badly, I still have some cough syrup. I'll ask the boss to bring it to you later."

Li Wei nodded: "It's still the early stage of the disaster. Even if some people want to make plans, it won't be too much. Therefore, the village chief still has a certain deterrent effect."

Boss Gu obediently took the things and left.

"Then why are you so embarrassed?"

Gu Laowu was named. He didn't pay much attention to these things. Except for being locked in the academy and suffering a little at first, he basically didn't worry about it and just followed his mother.

As for the snowstorm, he didn't think it was too scary. Once he found a place to live in the county town, he returned to normal.

"Brothers and sisters, this."

"Ms. Anbang, thank you, cough, cough, cough." Ms. Li couldn't stop coughing after just two words.

Alas. After hearing what Li said, Gu Fugui let out a long sigh.

As soon as he said this, Gu Laoer understood immediately.

"Mom, what did you just give me?"

"So, the village chief is my mother, and you are borrowing your power?"

Li Wei glanced at the others.

After saying that, Li Wei turned around and left, then took a bottle of cough syrup from the system, the packaging was still retro-style, and then gave it to Boss Gu to deliver it to Li.

As soon as Boss Gu left, Zhou Chunxiu came to Li Wei holding his belly.

"Everyone is tired. I can stay warm by holding the pot."

"Da Shuan, take your brother and go chop bamboo quickly."

Mrs. Li also looked at Li Wei in surprise.

"No matter what others say? Do your own thing."

"Well, I won't be polite. My sister-in-law, I, Gu Fugui, will remember your love."

Zhou Chunxiu curled her lips. There must be something good in the old woman's backpack. She could give everyone candy from time to time along the way. She just took an oilcloth from the basket and gave it to Gu Fugui. When she came back, she took it again from the basket.

something.

So Li Wei suddenly asked this question and replied casually.

Seeing Gu Fugui's grandchildren shuddering from the cold, Li Wei felt really distressed.

"At this time, let's help the village chief. With the village chief behind us, no one else dares to say anything."

"Sister-in-law, where are you cooking?"

"Eh!"

"Mom, how precious is this oilcloth? You just gave it to the village chief for nothing?"

Unlike Gu Laowu, he was not aware of the seriousness of the snow disaster because he was loved. His sense of crisis was very clear. Although Li Wei no longer cursed people as before, he was still worried that in this disaster, he would be

Disabled and abandoned.

Gu Laosan didn't expect that Li Wei would ask him. Along the way, because of the inconvenience of his legs, he always tried his best to hold himself back.

In Gu Laowu's mind, the only thing he was worried about was whether it would be easy to enroll in the county academy.

"You think the same thing as the second child? Fifth child, tell me."

“Don’t worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality. If you have too much and don’t have the corresponding ability to protect it, you will eventually become unmatched in virtue.”

Li Wei glanced at Gu Laosan appreciatively.

"Lao San, what do you think?"

"Village Chief, the wind and snow will not stop for a while. I still have a piece of oilcloth here. How about you do what we did and cut some bamboo to build a shed?"

I was speechless all night. The next morning, the blizzard continued. After a night of abuse, more than half of the roof of the straw shed that was built yesterday was blown away and dozens of people froze to death. When they were discovered in the morning, half of these people were dead.

The body was buried in heavy snow.

After Li Wei finished speaking, she stopped talking. Although the Gu family didn't quite understand, they didn't refute because everyone had heard about the early stage of the disaster.

so.

And then there is this later stage of the disaster.

Everyone suddenly didn't dare to ask or think about how long this snowstorm would last.

Gu Fugui was overjoyed, this was a good thing. It was such a great gesture that Li Wei gave the oilcloth to him at this time.

Li Wei glanced sideways, seeing Zhou Chunxiu acting like he was the smartest and others were stupid, and said angrily.

Mrs. Li raised her head and saw Li Wei. She just nodded lightly without much enthusiasm. After all, Mrs. Gu's personality was not very good in the past and the two had little friendship.

It's a pity that the backpack is too densely knitted and has a lid, so I can't peek even if I want to.

"Don't ask about things that have nothing to do with you."

"Mom, I don't care about others. You said an oilcloth is so important now, why would you give it to others?"

As long as there are as many tarpaulins as possible, they can build two sheds as a family.

"It's okay, I'm in trouble."

"Yes, mother, people outside say you flatter Gu Fugui."

"Yes, Lao San's analysis is correct. In the face of suffering, human nature cannot stand the test."

When I woke up, the people who were around yesterday were frozen to death.

This time, no one even cried loudly. They dug them up and buried them silently. I don't know whether it was fear or numbness.

"Mom, the snow is still so heavy. It seems that we can't leave in the morning." Boss Gu looked at the flying snow in the sky and was extremely worried.

Li Wei didn't tell him that the snowstorm would last for at least three days. They were trapped here.
