Chapter 19: The Last Days of the Ice Ages(19)

Looking at the boy who was still shivering from the cold being held by Uncle Su, Su's mother hurriedly beckoned him to come over and roast the fire.

The boy shrunk his neck and glanced at Uncle Su timidly.

Uncle Su put the boy down and pushed him to Su's mother.

"Whose child is this?"

Father Su didn't come back much, and although the child looked quite kind, he couldn't name it.

Uncle Su patted the snow on his shoulder, took a sip of hot water and took a sip before replying, "This is the grandson of Uncle Santang's family, Su Ang." It was too cold last night, and the three cousins and their husbands were gone, or the child braved the snow to knock on the door of the neighbor's house, and the neighbor notified the village committee. ”

The third cousin is their father's cousin, but the relationship between the brothers has always been average.

His son and daughter-in-law were all out and did not come back, and his daughter was also married far away, and his grandson stayed in the countryside for him to take with him.

The temperature was too low last night, and there were no young people watching at home, so neither of them survived.

"Wen Bai is gone?"

Grandpa Su didn't speak until he heard Uncle Su say that the person was gone, so he raised his head.

"Yes, Dad, the village chief said that Uncle Santang has no other brothers, and his son and daughter are not there, so you have the closest relationship with him, Dad, so he said that he would let the child live in our house for a while, and send him over when his parents are contacted."

said that he would send it over when the time came, but looking at the weather, who knows when he will be able to contact his parents?

And now many places are out of contact, I don't see that many satellite channels on TV have no signal, and only their local channels in Yun Province are still broadcasting news.

Maybe you won't be able to shake off this takeover!

Uncle Su looked at Grandpa Su nervously, and it was because he thought of Su Chen that he agreed to the decision of the village committee.

His son doesn't know where he is now, and he doesn't know what happened to him.

If possible, I hope he can also meet good Samaritans and help him.

Therefore, Uncle Su is willing to do more good deeds from now on, hoping to repay his son.

Grandpa Su took a puff of dry tobacco, he looked at Su Ang, who was sitting beside Su's mother quite uncomfortably, and remembered his cousin, who was nearly ten years younger than him.

Now that I think about it, I don't remember why I was born in the first place, but when I was a child, he often ran behind him.

The other party is nearly ten years younger than himself and has not survived this weather, if it weren't for the fact that his youngest son and daughter-in-law brought back so many things, he was not sure if he could survive this old bone.

Grandpa Su slowly took a puff of cigarette and nodded, "Then stay." ”

Since she decided to let the child stay, Su's mother went to find clothes for the child to wear.

They didn't have the clothes of a seven- or eight-year-old child, so they found a short black down jacket that they bought for Xingyun, although it was a little older, it was also warmer than the clothes on his body.

"What is the village going to do about his future?"

Hearing Grandpa Su ask, Uncle Su shook his head, "The weather is too cold, first pack up a mourning hall, and then put it in the mourning hall first." The main reason is that the son and daughter are not here, the son can't be contacted, the daughter is too far away, and the road is not easy to walk on snowy days, and it seems that she won't come. The village chief said that he would leave it for the time being, and then arrange it in a day or two. ”

Grandpa Su nodded and stopped talking, and Uncle Su talked about what he had just heard from the outside.

Many chickens and ducks in the village froze to death, and a pig farmer also froze to death a few pigs.

"Can we buy some of the frozen chickens, ducks and pork?"

Father Su knew that the current heavy snow and cooling were not the end, although he bought a lot of food and came back, but this meat was not too much.

"It should be possible, but the price is hard to say, now that the snow is so big, the price will definitely be raised."

"It's okay to spend a little more money, didn't the news say that there is still snow here, the road is also blocked, it's always good to have more things."

Su's father still remembers that his daughter said that when the time comes, the government will build a safe zone on the basis of the original city, and at that time the money is useless, just a pile of waste paper, and everything will have to be points.

Uncle Su thought about it and felt that what Father Su said was very reasonable, he was afraid that someone else would buy it first, so he took the money and went out with Father Su again.

When they returned, the two brought a few chickens and ducks, and dragged back a pig that was not quite large.

"This money can usually buy three pigs!"

Uncle Su was a little unhappy, and felt that the price increase was too much, which was outrageous.

Father Su was quite satisfied, because he knew that in a few days, he might not be able to buy these things with money.

Because of the loss of contact with her eldest son, Aunt Su couldn't lift her spirits, so she lay on the bed all morning in the morning, and Su's mother made lunch alone, and Xingyun helped to help.

In the afternoon, everyone stayed in the house and didn't go out, and Uncle Su's father and Uncle Su got the frozen pig by the way, and the meat didn't need to be put in the refrigerator, just put it outside to freeze.

Su Hao's sprained foot was much better, but he looked a little dull all day, and he didn't come forward to talk to Xingyun, he sat silently on the side in a daze, looking full of worries, and he didn't even care about his teeth and teeth turning around at his feet.

In the evening, they swept the snow again, and Su Hao saw that Xingyun also went out, and felt that he couldn't even compare to a girl as a boy, so he also went to help.

After only a few minutes of shoveling, Su Hao felt that his whole body was going to freeze.

Especially on the face, the biting cold wind blows on people's faces like knives, which makes people hurt, and the cold wind is mixed with large snowflakes, and from time to time you will be confused.

It didn't take long for a layer of snow to fall on his body, and he looked like a snowman from a distance.

Su Hao stomped his feet, and seeing that Xingyun on the side did not pause in the slightest, he gritted his teeth and buried his head in continuing to shovel snow.

When going to bed at night, the new member Su Ang and Su Hao slept together, and Su's mother also specially poured a few hot water bottles into each of the three elderly people in the family and put them in the quilt to warm up, for fear that they would freeze.

Jin'an City.

Under the dark night sky, the whole city was covered in snow and ice, and the buildings were buried under the snow, only the snow-covered ground was slightly white, which was especially noticeable in the dark night.

The cold wind mixed with the snowflakes howled fiercely, running ragingly through the city, unleashing its mad power on everything it could touch.

Except for the blizzard, there are no moving creatures in the entire city, as if it is an empty city that has been cast ice and snow magic.

In a closed room in the Municipal Public Security Bureau building, more than two dozen people were sitting together, the electric grill in the middle glowing warmly yellow.

There was a rumbling sound in the next room, and it was a generator working.

Everyone was tightly wrapped, and some were covered with thick quilts.

A faint yellow light reflected on people's faces, and everyone's expressions were rather heavy.

At this time, a young man in his twenties suddenly turned his head to look at Pei Yichang and asked, "Captain, do you say that this snow is really going to be next week?" ”
