"I never expected you to cook so well, little girl. I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to enjoy such delicious food again?"
Cui Yulu didn't know the hidden meaning in his words, and just casually said, "You are my savior. You can come here to eat whenever you want from now on. I guarantee you'll be full."
She said with a smile, revealing a row of small, white teeth.
Han Yu'an remained silent with a dark expression, and Cui Yulu was increasingly unable to understand what he was thinking.
She always only spoke halfway through, and she couldn't quite figure out what Han Yu'an was thinking.
Even if he doesn't want to be with her, she can just say so directly, and she won't bother him when she opens her clinic next year.
She just kept having this dark expression and wouldn't say anything when asked. She really didn't understand why.
Halfway through lunch, Lin Yun received a message by carrier pigeon. She whispered a few words in Fu Xiaoyu's ear, and the two got up to say goodbye.
"Remember to come back for the antidote next time. With this antidote, you can say goodbye to the days of being poisoned and regain your freedom."
"Okay, I'll come back to see you in five days if nothing unexpected happens."
After seeing Fu Xiaoyu and the other two off, it started snowing again. This time, the snow continued all night and into the morning.
The snow is already half a person high, and if it continues to fall like this, it could cause a snow disaster.
"I haven't seen such heavy snow in more than ten years. I never expected to encounter it this year."
"If this continues, people will probably freeze to death."
Some houses in the village are old and dilapidated, and may not be able to withstand such heavy snow.
Cui Yulu secretly watched Han Yu'an read; the way he read so intently seemed to radiate golden light.
But he hadn't even turned a single page of the book in his hand.
"Sister, don't you still want to eat brother?"
Abu chuckled as he watched the two of them. He had long since noticed that his sister was constantly peeking at his brother and wasn't paying attention to her studies at all.
"What do kids know? I just didn't recognize a word and wanted to ask a question."
Cui Yulu felt a little embarrassed by what Abu said, so she quickly picked up the book and looked for unfamiliar words, but after searching for a long time, she found that she didn't recognize a single one.
Finally, she could only lower her head and sigh. This book really wasn't suitable for her; she was much better suited to cooking.
"Well, you guys continue with your studies, shall I make you some snacks?"
Abu and Niu Niu naturally wouldn't refuse, but Han Yu'an glanced at Cui Yulu, put down the book in his hand and said, "Didn't you have some words you didn't know that you wanted to ask? Why didn't you ask?"
Cui Yulu ran out with a flushed face; heaven knows how embarrassed she was.
"Um, you must all be thirsty. I'll make you some tea."
Cui Yulu quickly disappeared from the study. Abu looked at Han Yu'an with a smile and said, "Brother, does sister like you? She's been secretly watching you."
"Children shouldn't talk nonsense; concentrate on your studies."
Niu Niu looked up at Abu, then secretly stuffed a piece of preserved plum into his mouth, his little cheeks puffing out like a hamster.
Cui Yulu saw the heavy snow outside through the door and had a bad feeling; the snow might freeze people to death.
"Grandma, how many cotton-padded clothes and quilts do we still have that we don't need?"
"They're all still in the warehouse. We may have used a few sets of cotton-padded clothes, but most of them haven't been touched yet."
Liu Xiuying did some calculations, but she didn't have a specific number in mind.
Why are you asking this? Has anything changed?
"Nothing has changed, but if the snow keeps falling like this, people might die."
Cui Yulu looked at the snow outside, which was already half a person deep, with a worried expression and said with concern.
"Rain and Dew, don't be so compassionate. We warned those people long ago, but they wouldn't listen. Now that they've actually encountered this, who can they blame?"
Liu Meie, with an indifferent expression, ate sunflower seeds, spitting out a pile of sunflower seed shells at her feet.
"Even so, I still feel guilty and want to help them."
"You're just too kind. Look at what happened with Han An before. They were more excited than anyone else watching the show. Not a single one of them stood up for you. No matter how good you are to them, they think it's their duty. I've seen through these heartless people. From now on, let's just live our own lives and not bother with anyone else, so as not to make them jealous."
Liu Xiue kept talking nonstop, and everyone just listened and responded with hums and hahs, thinking that what she said made a lot of sense.
Some people just can't be too nice to; for example, the family next door are typical ingrates.
"Mother, quickly find me three sets of quilts and cotton-padded clothes. I need to send them to Qiaoyue and the others."
Han Bao, who had just rushed back from outside, shook off the snow covering his body and spoke to Liu Meie.
"What's wrong? Didn't they prepare any winter clothes?"
"When I came back just now, I saw that Qiaoyue's house was damaged. I have to give them some clothes to keep warm, otherwise they will freeze to death."
It turns out that the Han family father and son had been helping to repair houses for widowed, orphaned, and lonely people in the village, but before they could repair the Lin family's house, a blizzard struck, and the house was damaged.
"Is he alright?"
"The person is fine, but the house is uninhabitable. Dad, why don't you come with me later to see if it can be repaired?"
Han Daping nodded silently. This heavy snow would probably cause a lot of trouble.
Liu Meie didn't dare to delay and quickly took out a cotton-padded coat and a cotton quilt from the storeroom, but then thought about it and put the cotton quilt down.
"Daping, you two go take a look first. If it's not working, let Qiaoyue and her daughter come over so we can rest for a bit. You need some time to repair the house, don't you?"
So Han Bao, carrying the cotton-padded coat, took Han Daping and went to the Lin family.
Just then, something strange happened at Granny Han's house. Granny Han was not only good at midwifery, but she was also usually very mysterious and claimed to be able to communicate with the gods. At this moment, she was doing divination at home.
However, after three divinations, all three were equally ominous.
This inevitably made her worried, but she instantly cheered up and picked up the tortoise shell and copper coin in her hand, heading towards the village head's house.
Cao Jinfang's family wasn't much better off. Perhaps because of the heavy snow, a pack of wolves attacked their home last night.
At that moment, heavy snow was pouring into the house, freezing the whole family huddled together.
Even with all my warm clothes wrapped around me, I still felt very cold.
"I've never seen weather like this before. How come it's snowing so heavily this year? It's truly an eye-opener."
"Hmph, it's all because of that jinx that came into the village this year. Everything has changed since he arrived. That wolf last night must have been summoned by that little bitch to get revenge on us."
"Yes, if you ask me, we should hurry up and go find the village head and ask him to take a look. That woman next door is a witch. She must have summoned the wolf. She's even raising a wicked little wolf cub."
The members of the second branch of the Han family were all talking at once, but Zhao Guifang just sneered. She had already paved the way and was just waiting for the final explosion. She didn't believe she couldn't kill this witch.
