The next day, the village head asked the villagers to shovel the road in front of their homes.
Then they organized several adult men to help those who were inconvenienced by the situation to remove the snow from their roofs.
Duan Yidao also joined in after hearing this.
Granny Wang and Zhu Yanli came early in the morning. Granny Wang was busy inside and outside the house as usual, but she ignored Zhu Yanli.
Song Yuehua gave her an inquiring look and Zhu Yanli nodded helplessly.
It's understandable that Granny Wang was angry, but it was a good thing that she wasn't kicked out.
Zhu Yanli took advantage of the fact that no one was around and asked, "How about I stay at your house? My mother cried all night yesterday and didn't say a word when she woke up this morning. I really can't stand it."
"You have to bear it even if you can't bear it," Song Yuehua whispered, "Besides, my family has nowhere to live."
"Oh..." Zhu Yanli sighed in disappointment.
Song Yuehua comforted him, "When the house on the East Mountain is built, you can live there. There aren't many people there, so you can go out and walk around occasionally. You don't have to stay in your room every day like you do now."
Zhu Yanli hugged Song Yuehua's arm and said with a smile, "You are still reliable."
As soon as Granny Wang came in and saw her serious expression, Zhu Yanli immediately became obedient.
"Girl, in this kind of weather, I'm afraid I can't come here often," Granny Wang sat on the kang and said to Song Yuehua in a gentle voice, "If there is anything, let Liu come to me."
Song Yuehua smiled and said, "Don't worry, mother-in-law. My injury is almost healed, and Xiaoyu, Liuxue, Baishu and the others are here."
That night, Granny Wang and Zhu Yanli returned home.
Song Yuehua asked Liu Xue to pack 2 kilograms of brown sugar and tore a piece of big red cotton cloth and sent it over.
The heavy snow was still falling, the roads to the county town were blocked, and many families had almost run out of firewood.
Many people were so cold that they had fever and could only bear it at home.
Song Yuehua had two jars of wine in her cellar. She asked Liu Qing to deliver the wine to the headman's house, who then distributed it and taught them to use the wine to rub their bodies to reduce fever.
After hearing the news, Madam Xia came over and said to Song Yuehua, "There are two more jars in the school cellar. If you don't have enough here, I can bring more."
Song Yuehua told her not to move and wait and see what happens.
No one knew who spread the news that Song Yuehua had medicine for colds, but the Song family’s door was soon filled with people asking for medicine.
No one in the room dared to open the door casually.
Liu Xue shouted through the door, "Everyone, go back quickly. We really don't have any medicine at home. Don't stand here and catch a cold."
"Girl, I know you have medicine at home. Please have mercy and save her!" the person outside pleaded.
Liu Xue patiently explained, "Our house is not a pharmacy, where do we get the medicine from? Don't be misled."
Someone outside suddenly shouted, "Who are you talking to here? Open the door quickly. We are looking for Song Daya."
"Yeah, who are you?"
"Is it the girl named Liu Xue?"
"Liu Meiniang's daughter? No wonder..."
Liu Xue was furious. "You guys are blocking the door. Do you look like you are here to beg for help? I'm afraid you are here to kill people. Who would dare to open the door for you?"
"Hey, little Liu, what are you talking about? Hurry up and open the door!"
"Alright, alright, calm down everyone. We are here to ask for medicine, not to fight. Don't be aggressive. It's easy to scare the children."
"Hu Jinquan, you are a good person. Can you please ask them to give you medicine?"
The people outside were still making noise. Liu Xue ran into the house and said angrily, "I don't know who is talking nonsense, insisting that we have medicine at home. We just sent wine, and now they come to block the door to ask for medicine. What is this? Is this repaying kindness with enmity?"
There was indeed some medicine at home. Ever since Xiaoyu had a fever in the middle of the night and Grandma Wang fell, Song Yuehua had been very concerned about stockpiling medicine.
There are 5 packets of cold medicine in total. One packet was given to Grandma Lan, and there are 4 packets left. There are more than 4 people outside the door, so how could they be taken out!
Song Yuehua sat up and got off the kang, but Liu Xue blocked her way and said, "I'll go talk to them again, don't go."
"They are looking for me, so of course I will go." Song Yuehua put on her shoes, got up and left the house.
There was a lot of noise outside the door.
The moment Song Yuehua opened the door, everyone fell silent.
Duan Yidao was holding a person and was about to throw him away. Song Yuehua was stunned for a moment, but decided to let him put the person down.
"Dear fellow villagers, I just have one question. Who told you that I have medicine here?" Song Yuehua asked loudly.
The people below started discussing one another, and suddenly someone asked Song Yuehua, "Daya, do you have any medicine?"
Song Yuehua said, "Answer my question first."
Everyone started arguing again in private. Song Yuehua stood at the door with a stern face, not saying a word.
After a while, the crowd quieted down, and someone said, "I asked, it was Song Lao Er who said that."
"oh……"
Song Yuehua said meaningfully, and looked at everyone, "Isn't the answer obvious? What is the relationship between the Song family and my family? Don't say you don't know."
Someone in the crowd asked, "Daya, do you really have no medicine? Song Lao Er said he saw you give medicine to Granny Lan."
"That's right." Song Yuehua said.
The crowd started to stir again.
"Since you've seen it, you should know that the only package of medicine I have here has been given to the villagers." Song Yuehua said, "Unless you plan to open a pharmacy, it's impossible to have more medicine. Is this difficult to understand?"
Some people already kind of believe it.
Song Yuehua added, "When the village was in trouble, I gave the only jar of wine and a packet of medicine in my home to the villagers. I was loyal to the villagers, but how did everyone treat me?"
