Chapter 196 An Ungrateful Person
The afternoon of the second day was even more gloomy, and it got dark much earlier than usual.
Now that it's cold, you have to find a sheltered place to spend the night outdoors, otherwise it's too cold to sleep at night.
In some families, several members even huddle together under one quilt to keep warm.
After eating some simple dry rations, the village chief came to find Mu Dasheng with a serious expression.
"Brother Dasheng, I feel something's not right today. I have a feeling tonight won't be peaceful."
"Sigh!" Mu Dasheng sighed softly.
"If I'm not mistaken, it will snow tonight."
Mu Dasheng glanced at the gloomy sky.
"It looks like this is going to be big, Dajiang. We can't sleep too soundly tonight. If the snow is really heavy and buries us, we might not wake up tomorrow."
village head:"…………"
...
In the middle of the night, the originally gloomy sky suddenly began to snow heavily. At first, the dense snowflakes woke everyone up.
Ning Bao rubbed his stinging face and frowned. The blizzard really did come...
The villagers, awakened by the snow, did not make a fuss. Instead, they sat quietly wrapped in quilts, watching the snowflakes falling continuously from the sky.
Ning Bao was held tightly in Li Guizhi's arms.
Just moments ago, Ning Bao was still in Mu Chunping and Shen Yuzhen's bed, but after the snow, Mu Chunping carried her into Li Guizhi's bed.
The snow was falling heavily, and Mu Chunping, as the strongest man in the family, had to be on standby at any time.
Not only Ningbao was with Li Guizhi and Mu Dasheng, but also the other children in the family, as well as Shen Yuzhen and Liu Qingru.
Liu Qinglin's family also asked Liu Qingru to bring them two thick cotton quilts.
After delivering the quilts and leaving, Liu Qingru looked at her brother and sister-in-law's family with a very serious expression.
"Mother, brother, sister-in-law, Yang'er, Xu'er, there's something I want to tell you in advance."
It's about Ning Bao. Ning Bao is the adopted daughter of Yu Zhen and her husband. She is a highly accomplished disciple of the Taoist priest Sanqing of the Sanqing Temple and has a great talent for metaphysics and supernatural abilities.
Ningbao deserves the most credit for making it this far with everyone intact. What I want to say is that when you see strange things, you should observe more and ask less and discuss less.
If we are fortunate enough to have a stable home in the future, I hope you will not reveal anything about Ningbao. Otherwise, if the Mu family comes after you, I won't be able to protect you.
You are all my closest relatives, and I trust you. However, there are some unpleasant things I need to say upfront; I don't want these people to damage our relationship later.
Liu Qinglin nodded earnestly after hearing his sister's words and assured her.
"Qingru, don't worry, we definitely won't say anything wrong. I understand what you mean. And the fact that Mother survived and we have a car and clothes to wear now is entirely because of the Mu family's kindness. Don't worry, we will never be ungrateful people."
…………
The moment Ningbao was awakened by the snow, she put all the pots, pans, and other items they were carrying into her storage talisman.
So that if the snow really fell as heavily as in their dream, they could travel light.
After packing their things, Shen Yuzhen and Liu Qingru took off their shoes and crawled into bed next to Li Guizhi. At this time, Li Guizhi and the others were already covered with three layers of quilts. Because there were so many people, their legs were all under the quilts, so no one felt cold.
After half an hour of snowfall, the granules turned into large snowflakes, and the ground was already white. Although the snow was not thick, the ground was completely white.
The village chief, watching the snow fall heavier and heavier, could no longer sit still. He dressed, stood up, and looked at his wife and daughter-in-law.
"Pack your things, except for the clothes you're wearing, and send everything else to Ningbao later."
Lin Jianfei's wife, Huang Xiaying, hesitated for a moment.
"Dad, shouldn't we leave the dry food and water? If we give everything to Ningbao, won't it be too troublesome for us to go to Ningbao to get it every day? I'm afraid Ningbao will find it annoying."
The village chief shook his head.
"No, Ningbao told me last night that if it snows heavily, I should pack everything up and she will store it. The temperature will definitely drop sharply after this snow."
The dry food and water we carry will definitely freeze if we keep them with us, but if we leave them with Ningbao, they will not only stay fresh but also remain at the right temperature.
In fact, Ning Bao had also considered giving each household a storage talisman. Anyway, she didn't lack yellow paper and cinnabar. Recently, she had been drawing a lot of storage talismans in her spare time.
