Tian Dagui's wife was lying in a torn and thin quilt, moaning. Gu Yezhou squatted down and asked, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you? Where is it uncomfortable?"

"The stomach hurts, and the waist on both sides of the waist are also hurt. The feet are also hurt, and there is no strength..."

“How long has it been?”

“It started this morning.”

"I'll take your pulse."

Gu Yezhou took Dagui's wife's hand and felt that her hands were cold, as if she was touching an iron piece. After taking the pulse and looking at her tongue, she confirmed that she was due to cold and the cold evil was attacking the meridians. She took out the golden needle and acupuncture her bilateral Fengchi point, the bilateral Hegu point and Yintang point. With just one incense stick, Dagui's wife's moans were significantly reduced. Her stomach and waist didn't hurt much, and her eyes were brighter.

Tian Dagui thanked him repeatedly and asked how much money he paid for. Gu Yezhou shook his head: "No need, you are not rich."

Tian Dagui thanked him quickly again.

Gu Yezhou said: "Your wife is dressed too thinly. It is so cold that she is easily affected by cold and becomes sick again. I can't take care of this acupuncture for a long time. You must pay attention to keeping warm."

Tian Dagui smiled bitterly: "Sir, it's not that we don't want to, it's not that. When the bandits robbed our village, they only brought food and other things to survive. They didn't bring any thick clothes. They were burned by the bandits. I sold some grain to buy the quilt. The whole family only had two beds in total, one for my mother and one for her. That is, seeing that she was sick, otherwise my son would have to cover it."

Gu Yezhou nodded: "I am also reminding you that you can only think of a way to keep warm. Let's say goodbye."

After saying that, Gu Yezhou took Zeng Feixia away from the corridor and went to see the others with a bell.

Tian Dagui said to his wife: "Okay, sir, you said, it doesn't matter, just cover the quilt for your son! Don't take over the whole person!"

Tian Dagui's son was named Niudu. It turned out that he was hoping that he would be as strong as a calf. Unfortunately, things went against his wishes. The calf grew up to six years old, and was still a little bit small, and was very thin. At this moment, he was squeezing with Tian Ergui's son Doodan to keep warm. His two little faces were already red from cold, and his hands were trembling like red-hearted radish.

Dagui's wife said with a sad face: "Sir, please keep me warm, otherwise I will get sick again..."

"Let's talk about it when I'm sick, my son is almost frozen to death now! Didn't you see it?" After that, Tian Dagui grabbed the quilt and wrapped his son's calf and nephew's dog. Dagui's wife could only curl up her thin body and tremble constantly. Her teeth were trembling, and she made a crunch.

The calf trembled and said, "Dad..., I'm hungry..."

"What are you shouting! Where can you see what food you have? Don't have eyes? Are you hungry, aren't you hungry? I'm so hungry that my chest is pressed against my back."

Tian Ergui whispered: "Brother, why don't we go find some food? I'm so hungry that I can't do it anymore."

Tian Dagui pointed to the heavy snow outside: "Where is such a heavy snow, where can I find food? The wild vegetables on the ground are covered by heavy snow, and I can't even see the shadow. Could it be that I have to clean up all the snow and dig wild vegetables?"

Tian Ergui stopped talking. They have been living by eating wild vegetables these days. When they escaped from the village, they have already brought the only little food in their family. In the past two months, they have eaten up and can only dig wild vegetables to eat. My mother took her children to beg along the street, and occasionally she can get some leftovers. This is the luckiest. But now, the heavy snow covers wild vegetables, no wonder they are at a loss.

Tian Dagui's mother, Tian Po, was curled up in the corner of the wall and finally spoke with a smacking lips: "Help me up..., I will take two young people to eat..., and queue up to the porridge factory to see if I can get a bowl of porridge..."

Tian Dagui said angrily: "The porridge factory receives porridge. There are so many people, even if you die, you can't get a bowl of it! Besides, with such heavy snow and such cold weather, if you go out, aren't you looking for death?"

"It is better to seek death than to sit here and starve to death!" Tian Po began to struggle and climb up, "It will not fall from the sky to eat. If you don't find food, you will only have to starve to death..."

Ergui's daughter-in-law's surname is You, and her name is Youcai. After hearing this, she hurriedly smiled and said, "What my mother-in-law said is, why don't we go with my sister-in-law and I."

"Fart!" Ergui said angrily: "You are a young wife from every family. You go begging for food. What should you meet a bad person? What should you do if you run away with someone?"

Youcai was mourning, his shriveled lips trembled twice and said, "If someone really wants me, I can exchange for some food, so I will do it too. I won't starve to death..."

"I'm a god, you are a fairy-like Banban!" Ergui slapped his wife over and kicked her again, "I've long seen that you are not a guy, so I'm thinking of stealing people and wanting to cuckold me. I'll beat you to death first!" He stepped forward and kicked and beat him.

Youcai was beaten up and hugged Ergui's leg: "Kick! If your turtle son doesn't kick me to death today, you are raised by a turtle bastard! If this continues, you either starve to death or freeze to death! Are you the left and right? If you kick me to death, forget it! Woo woo..."

Tian Dagui shouted loudly: "Okay! What are you doing? Do you think it's not messy enough?"

Tian Ergui then stopped and kicked his wife away.

Tian Dagui pointed to his wife and his younger brother's wife and said, "You two are here, look at the things and our territory, don't let others take it." He said to me, "Mom, take your two grandsons to eat, don't go to the porridge factory. We brothers have been queuing for a few days but haven't received a bowl of porridge. Don't say you three are old and young. You should go and beg for food. At least you three have to feed you three before coming back. Ergui and I will go and see if there is any chance to work. Let's find a way to survive together!"

Tian Po trembled and walked forward to pull the two children. The two little guys had just gotten warm and were about to come out again, and their faces showed a look of fear. However, they could not withstand the hungry urge, so they found food to fill their stomachs before talking. Then they came out, grabbed grandma's hand, and walked into the wind and snow.

However, on this day, the three of them had almost traveled all over the city in the wind and snow, but they didn't even have half of the wild vegetables. Because the heavy snow covered the earth and could not dig wild vegetables, they all went out to beg. So, there were all the victims begging along the streets, and the families in the city didn't have enough food to eat, so they were really unable to help these victims, so they closed the doors and didn't even open even if they knocked on them.

They went to several wealthy families who were serving the porridge, and they were crowded together, and they could squeeze in. Moreover, a bag of rice porridge every day quickly shone out. However, the victims were reluctant to leave and were still waiting there.

The three grandparents and grandchildren were so hungry that their eyes were blurred and their bodies were frozen. When it was dark, Tian Po saw that there was really no food, so she had to take her two children back to the City God Temple.

Tian Dagui and his friends were eagerly waiting for them to come back, hoping to get some food back, but seeing that the three of them were empty-handed, they were disappointed. Tian Po asked the two brothers, and they had also traveled all over the city, but they did not find any opportunities to work. The only small workshops in the city were closed due to heavy snow and had no business.

Tian Dagui squatted on the ground with his head in his arms and said nothing. The calf was trembling and couldn't even speak. His mother hugged him quickly and rubbed the calf's little hands with her equally cold hands. However, she couldn't feel any warmth. She wanted to get the quilt on the ground, but Youcai had already taken the lead and snatched the quilt and wrapped her son Goudan. The calf's mother bit her teeth, pulled open her clothes, put the calf's little hands like ice cubes into her arms, and hugged her tightly.

Ergui was originally wrapped in another quilt, but when he saw that my mother was coming in tremblingly, he was almost frozen. He quickly took off the quilt on his body, wrapped around Tian Po, and helped her sit down in the corner of the wall.

Tian Po looked at her second son, struggled to move her shrunk and sunken mouth, and reluctantly said a few words: "Find some... firewood..., it will... freeze to death..."

Ergui rubbed his hands and said to Tian Dagui: "Brother, let's go outside the city to make some firewood and cook, right?"

Tian Dagui then let go of his hands holding his head and sighed: "It's already evening now, the city gate is closed. If you don't go, you have to wait tomorrow morning."

Tian Ergui turned around and looked around. Some people had heated the fire. However, each fire was surrounded by the fire-burning victims. Finally, he saw that the village’s Shang Bo was making a fire, and there were only a few people around him. He hurried over and said with a smile: “Brother Shang, it’s so cold this day, I’ll be here to roast the fire too, okay?”

Bo Shang looked at him coldly: "It's just that I spent seven cents to buy firewood. If you want to bake it, you can pay half of it! Four cents!"

"Ah? Is it cost money to roast the fire?"

"Nonsense, isn't it all the same? Everyone gathers money to buy firewood and keep warm together. Do you want to roast cheap? No way! My son-in-law Luo Jiacai beg me for a long time, but I didn't agree to his family to cook the fire. Because he couldn't afford it. Go! If he had no money, he would walk away!"

Tian Dagui couldn't imagine how much Shang Bo, who used to be quite friendly, became so cold at this time, and he didn't even let the fire burn, so he turned around and walked away in disappointment.

The sky gradually darkened, but the heavy snow all over the sky had no intention of stopping. The cold wind whimpered through the pillars that were walking around the corridor, making a numb sound. Tian Dagui and his family squeezed together, wrapped in two quilts to keep warm. The children were placed in the middle, and the whole family was trembling with coldness.

Suddenly, Youcai screamed and cursed at Tian Dagui beside him: "Beast! You beast! Shameless bastard!"
