Chapter 162 Heavy Snow Blocks the Road
Xie Yunshu smiled, his eyes fell on Qi Man, and he said:
"It's okay, just a few steamed dumplings, it will only take a while."
Qi Man put her hands on her hips and complained angrily:
"Grandpa, is Manman still your favorite granddaughter? What do you mean by just eat whatever you want?"
Mr. Qi quickly surrendered:
"Okay, okay, it's Grandpa's fault. Manman can eat whatever she wants."
"snort!"
Qi Man snorted coldly and pouted, tilting her head back.
This made everyone laugh out loud, and the atmosphere at home was full of joy.
Roasting by the fire and chatting, it is so relaxing and pleasant.
"Oh, they are all warming themselves by the fire."
Bai Jiachun walked in wearing a military green cotton jacket. His breath was very obvious in the air. His eyes fell on the three people who were warming themselves around the stove.
"Old Bai is here. It's very cold. Come in and warm yourself up!"
Mother Xie hurriedly took out a stool and poured Bai Jiachun a cup of steaming hot tea.
Bai Jiachun sat by the stove, warming his frozen hands, raised the teacup and took a sip of hot tea. When the coldness in his body dissipated a little, he spoke:
"Emergency notice, the road out of the village was blocked by heavy snow, and several people were buried. There were also several educated youth from the neighboring village who insisted on going to the county town to buy some winter supplies, and were also buried there. Now all the men in the village have gone to help with their hoes. Almost everyone has been rescued, but the number of people is not right. I thought Yun Shu was not available, so I had no choice but to ask him for help in finding the remaining people."
Xie Yunshu is famous in the village for his keen senses, so Bai Jiachun came to visit him.
"Harmful!"
Mother Xie waved her hand:
"What's the big deal? This is a matter of life and death, so help if you can. Yun Shu is in the kitchen making steamed dumplings for Man Man. I think it's almost done. I'll go call him."
Speak of the devil; he will appear.
The sound arrives before the person.
"What do you want from me?"
Xie Yunshu held a small steamer in his hand and placed it in front of Qi Man.
"I got two steamers. If it's not enough, tell me and I'll make some for you."
"Okay~"
Qi Man responded softly.
Xie Yunshu's eyes fell on Bai Jiachun and he greeted him politely:
"Uncle Jiachun."
“Hey!”
When Bai Jiachun saw Xie Yunshu coming out, he quickly stood up and said:
"Yun Shu, time waits for no one. Come quickly, there are still a few people who have not been rescued. Come with me to take a look."
Having said that, he pulled Xie Yunshu and walked out.
"Let's go take a look too."
The two old men also stood up and asked Qi Man as they left:
"Manman, do you want to go too?"
Qi Man's mouth was filled with the confiscated money. Her little head shook like a rattle and she said incoherently:
"I'll go over after I'm full. Grandpa, Mom, you guys go over first!"
The world is big, but eating is the most important thing.
My stomach is only 10% full right now, I'll eat after I'm full.
The two elders went away together, leaving Qi Man alone at home to enjoy the delicious food.
Only after she finished eating the remaining steamed dumplings did Qi Man wrap herself up tightly and go out.
The roads are very slippery in winter, and you have to be careful with every step you take, for fear of falling down accidentally.
Qi Man followed the footprints, left the village, and came to a corner. There were people gathered here, and Xie Yunshu was searching in the snow.
The villagers nearby were chatting happily.
It took Xie Yunshu and several other men two hours to pull out the remaining weak educated youth from the snow pile.
Several people had been frozen stiff and hard, and their breath was very weak. There was also a female educated youth who clung to Xie Yunshu's arm tightly. No matter how hard the others tried, they could not let the two of them go.
Xie Yunshu had a gloomy complexion. He stared dimly at the arm that the female educated youth was holding. He led the person down with a cold face.
Wei Fei, wearing a dark blue cotton jacket and carrying a medicine box in his hand, asked them to take the person to the yard.
The village heads from neighboring villages also followed.
If something happened to the educated youth in the village, they had no way to report to their superiors.
Qi Man followed closely behind, and the villagers nearby tactfully made way for him, allowing Qi Man to enter Wei Fei's house unimpeded.
The room was full of people. The village heads from the neighboring villages looked at Qi Man, who was like an elf, with a hint of amazement in their eyes. They were all curious about which village this educated youth came from to be so unique and charming.
It is small and soft like a dough ball, and looks particularly pleasing to the eye.
Xie Yunshu's gloomy face softened as soon as he saw Qi Man. Afraid that the little girl might misunderstand him, he took the lead in explaining:
"This educated youth girl can't be opened no matter how hard you try, wife."
Everyone suddenly realized that it was someone else's daughter-in-law.
Qi Man blinked her eyes and looked at the female educated youth clinging to Xie Yunshu. She felt sour in her heart. She reached her hand out of her pocket, pressed the female educated youth's shoulders, and pulled gently, and she let go.
Seeing this, Xie Yunshu quickly pulled his hand back, stood up and stood behind Qi Man.
Everyone was dumbfounded. What was going on? How come the person got loose just because the girl pulled lightly?
Wei Fei was busy in the room alone, with no chance to breathe. He ran left and right, and was exhausted and out of breath.
"Get out of the way! If you don't have anything to do, don't block the road here."
When he saw Qi Man, it was as if he had seen a savior. His cloudy eyes sparkled, and his attitude was no longer as irritable as before. Instead, he was a little flattering:
"Girl, you've come just in time. Help me quickly. These people are freezing and the road out of the village is blocked. I'm afraid their lives are in danger. What can you do?"
Qi Man glanced at the dozen or so people lying half-dead on the bed and said softly:
“I’m not a doctor.”
Those repair pills were all given by San San, and I don’t want to give them to these strangers.
"I know you have a way."
Wei Fei was so anxious that his face turned red.
Bai Jiachun also said, "Manman girl, if you have any ideas, save them first. The New Year is almost here. It would be unlucky if they all died in Qingyun Village. Please save them for my old face."
The other village heads also followed suit and pleaded for mercy.
No matter whether it works or not, since the barefoot doctor has spoken, it will be right to follow suit and plead for mercy.
Qi Man pursed her lips, took out a box from her pocket, and handed it to Wei Fei:
"One small pill per person."
This is the medicine that San San just provided. Although its effect is not as strong as the repair pill, it can help them save their lives and avoid reporting to the King of Hell.
Wei Fei happily took it and fed each person a mouthful of medicine without caring whether it was safe or not.
"If there's nothing else, I'll take my wife back!"
Xie Yunshu held Qi Man’s small hand with his big hand and greeted the village chief.
