That night, the temperature dropped suddenly.

The snow, which had stopped for a day, suddenly started to fall again.

And it's even worse.

Even though I was covered with a thick quilt, I felt cold, and the bed was not warm.

Lin Changlu quickly got up and burned the big kang in the main room, and then asked Mrs. Pei to ask her two daughters-in-law to gather all the children in the family to sleep on the kang.

All the men in the family were making bunks on the floor.

Fortunately, their main hall is big enough to accommodate more than ten people.

"I have never felt as cold as tonight since I was a child. I'm afraid it's a once-in-a-century weather."

Lin Changlu said quietly while lying on the bed.

"Dad, our house won't be crushed by such heavy snow, right?"

Lin Darong lay next to him and looked at the roof.

"Our new house should be fine, but it would be hard to tell if it was the old house. We should be more alert at night. Let's take turns to burn the kang to make sure it doesn't get cold."

"I know, Dad."

Except for a few children, everyone in the room was a little worried.

Fortunately, Lu Qingling and his family had the foresight. After experiencing the charm of the fire kang at A Li's house last year, they asked Lin Changlu to arrange it for them. Otherwise, their house would be as cold as an ice cellar now.

But other families in the village were not so lucky.

My hands and feet were so cold that I was shivering under the quilt. I had no choice but to use everything that could be used for heating at home.

They knew that the Lin family had invented the fire kang, but everyone thought that it was impractical here, not to mention that it would also cost firewood.

They are located in the southwest, and there is not much cold time in winter, and the cold level is still acceptable, so at that time many people were laughing at their family behind their backs for building this weird thing.

Now many of them thought of the Lin family's fire bed, thinking that it would be very warm to lie on it in this weather!

In the early hours of the morning, the Lin family's courtyard gate was making a "clanging" sound.

Lin Changlu quickly put on his clothes and hat and opened the door.

The biting cold wind rushed into the room, making him shiver from the cold.

He sniffed. The weather was so cold that it felt like he was not wearing a cotton-padded jacket.

They were all frozen.

He walked through the thick snow in the yard to the gate.

When I opened it, I saw that the person knocking on the door was the village chief, followed by about ten people.

Some people were covering their heads, some were covering their waists, and some were being carried.

"Changlu, please help your A Li! Several houses in the village were crushed by heavy snow, and many people were injured."

Lin Changlu frowned and glanced at the man behind him who was covering his wound and groaning. He had already guessed that such a situation would happen.

"Hey, let's go inside first!"

Everyone entered the Lin family hall and felt that it was extremely warm. Their bodies that were about to freeze suddenly regained consciousness immediately.

The noise they came in made a lot of noise, and Mrs. Pei and other Lin family members also woke up. Fortunately, it was cold and they lay down in their clothes.

Getting up is also very fast.

Otherwise, if so many men come in, even if it is a special situation now, people will make irresponsible remarks.

Seeing them all standing in the main room, the village chief said sheepishly: "Brothers and sisters, I'm sorry for disturbing you so late."

Seeing how embarrassed everyone was, Mrs. Pei had no choice but to say awkwardly, "The situation is urgent, I understand."

Then Zhang and Yan went to boil hot water.

Ah Li was awakened by Mr. Pei's voice.

She opened her eyes drowsily and saw a large group of people in the room staring at her.

"Uncle Village Chief, haven't you gone to bed yet?"

The village chief showed a wry smile and said, "Ah Li, many people in the village are injured. We are here to ask you for help. Can you please help us?"

When Ah Li heard that someone was injured, he quickly got up.

Mrs. Pei was afraid that she would catch cold, so she put on a small cotton-padded jacket.

Then Ah Li showed the injured person a look at his wounds.

When she treated Lin Mingda's wounds before, Lin Darong and Lin Errong saw clearly, so this time they all stepped in to help.

The four men had also gotten up early, and they were running back and forth to help get things.

The village chief and others also followed A Li's example and treated people's wounds.

At this time, a woman said noisily: "Why don't you give me a man to look at first? Since we don't stay in the village often, you should treat us differently, right?"

Lin Errong glanced at her and said, "Sister-in-law Liu, do you think we are very free? We are all busy. Brother Liu only has a cut on his arm, which is a minor injury. Can't you deal with it later?"

"You said it lightly. It's just a cut. Let me make such a big cut to see if it hurts."

Ms. Pei felt uncomfortable when she heard people talking about her son like this. He came over and said, "Hongyuan family, it's meaningless for you to say this. Our family doesn't owe you anything. We consider that we are all from the same village."

For my sake, I didn’t even say anything to help you. If you are so unreasonable, you can go home with Changchun!"

"Hehe, I can't even say a few words. Auntie, your family also charges money for medical treatment. At worst, we can just pay. If the heavy snow hadn't blocked the road, we would have gone to the county to see a doctor."

Mrs. Pei was so angry that she wanted to drive them away.

Before she could say anything, the village chief quickly called Liu Hongyuan's daughter-in-law, Ma.

"Hongyuan family, what do you want to do? It's such a cold day that we wake up your Uncle Changlu and the others at night. It's already a disturbance. Why do you say such things? I know you are worried about your man's injury.

, things also have priorities, what can you do if you wait a little longer."

Seeing that Mr. Ma didn't speak anymore, he paused for a few seconds and then said: "You said you have to pay for medical treatment. Isn't that a natural thing? Their medicines are not brought by strong winds."

When Ma heard that the village chief was speaking to the Lin family, she felt even more unhappy.

"Village Chief, although Hongyuan and I don't often stay in the village, we still know some things about the village. It doesn't matter that you are close to Uncle Changlu's family, but you should at least be fair! Others are hurt.

It's been dealt with. Even though my parents Yuan Yuan was slightly injured, he was still injured anyway. Since you have to pay for it, why can't you show it to us first?"

These words left the village chief speechless.

"Hongyuan, you don't care about your wife, or do you think so too?"

Liu Hongyuan covered his arms and pretended to be weak and did not answer the village chief's words, which was regarded as acquiescing to his wife's behavior.

The village chief shook his head coldly.

"To be honest, if I didn't have a good relationship with Changlu, do you think I would be willing to bring you here in the middle of the night and bother a three- or four-year-old baby to treat you? You need to be grateful. If you have money, you can go there by yourself.

As far as the county is concerned, no one is stopping me."
