These people were not too stupid, they knew that it was safer to gather together, they originally wanted to go to the mountains to join the people in the village, but halfway through, the river rose sharply, and the flood water rushed down, and the roads were flooded, and they climbed onto the roofs to save their lives.

Because he was busy running for his life, he threw away all the things he was carrying, and there was only a little food left, and he couldn't last long, at most enough for everyone to eat for five days, and if no one came to the rescue, he could only wait for death.

I was trapped for several days, from the hope at the beginning, to the despair and numbness later, and the regret of complaining to each other, why didn't I listen to the village chief, and I was still complacent, thinking that they were the smartest in the world, and everyone else was a fool, look at it, they are the big fools.

Later, they didn't even have the strength to complain to each other, and the food was running out, so they could only eat the old man and the children first.

Someone broke down and cried, "Why didn't anyone come to save us?" ”

The other person sneered, "You dream, in this case, who will take care of us, there is no way, how can we come, let's wait for death, who let us deserve it." ”

Hearing his words, everyone fell silent.

In the corner, a thin woman was holding a five-year-old girl with yellow face and thin muscles, the little girl's face was abnormally flushed, obviously feverish, and her voice was weak, "Mom, I'm hungry." ”

When the woman heard this, her tears flowed even more fiercely, "Niuniu, you won't be hungry if you close your eyes and sleep." ”

The little girl didn't cry or make trouble, and closed her eyes obediently.

The woman hesitated for a long time, stood up bravely, and walked to a group of people, this is a large family, there are more than a dozen people in total, she looked at the old lady sitting inside, "Mom, Niuniu is sick, she is very hungry, please, return her food to us." ”

The old lady said meanly: "You mourning star stay away from me, kill my son and want to kill me, marry and give birth to a money-losing goods, cause my son to break his roots, a girl dies when she dies, what to eat, so many of us are not enough to eat." ”

Not only did the woman not get food, but she was also scolded by the old lady and ordered her two sons to drive away.

The woman wiped her tears and left, she hated her cowardly self to death, but every time she faced the vicious mother-in-law, she didn't dare to resist, so she could only wronged herself and her daughter.

That day, the village chief was doing propaganda in the village, and she wanted to take her daughter with her, but her mother-in-law refused, feeling that the village chief was fooled by people from other villages, and resolutely opposed it, and was reluctant to put down the work at hand and move.

Now, she hates herself very much, if she wasn't so cowardly and incompetent, wouldn't her daughter not have to suffer so much, she knew sensible at a young age, and often helped her work.

This morning, the woman woke up from hunger and found her daughter motionless, even breathing very weakly, "Niu Niu! ”

"Niuniu, wake up, wake up!"

The little girl was still motionless, the woman touched her forehead, it was hot and scary, the woman cried bitterly, "Niuniu, don't scare your mother, you are the most obedient, wake up." ”

At this time, a group of children were crying endlessly, in the midst of the crying, the woman's crying was inconspicuous, no one paid attention to her, she couldn't live happily, who was still in the mood to care about others.

An eighty-year-old man couldn't bear it, so he came over to take a look, "This child can't survive unless he goes to a big hospital for treatment." ”

Now it's difficult to even survive, how can I go to the hospital.

When the woman heard this, her eyes were almost blind with tears.

The woman's mother-in-law glanced at this side, "Bad luck, there are so many children, just her daughter's illness, and it looks like it's going to be gone, I'll just say that she is a dead star, and you all stay away from her in the future." ”

Hearing this, the woman raised her head sharply and looked at the old lady resentfully, why is her daughter not in good health, because she was born prematurely and has no milk to eat, she can live so big, it all depends on God's kindness.

If it weren't for the old lady withholding her daughter's share of food, maybe her daughter's illness would not have worsened, but she was the one who was to blame the most.

Suddenly, the woman slapped herself in the face hard.

The eighty-year-old man couldn't stand it, and took out a small bottle from his pocket, which he prepared for his children and grandchildren. ”

The old man's daughter-in-law wanted to speak, but was stopped by the old man's granddaughter, the granddaughter looked at the little girl sympathetically, they are all from the same village, she knows that Niuniu is a very well-behaved child, but she is very pitiful, she is not full of snacks and clothing, and she has to help her mother work every day.

The old man's daughter-in-law muttered, "A few antipyretics are a lot of money." ”

The old man's granddaughter frowned and said, "Mom, we've all fallen to this point, it's useless to ask for antipyretics, it's better to save people and accumulate some good fortune." ”

When the old man's daughter-in-law heard her daughter say this, she sighed and said no more.

The woman didn't blame the old man for not taking it out earlier, the child didn't care about his grandparents and uncles, why did outsiders give you life-saving medicine, she knelt down and kowtowed hard to the old man.

The old man sighed and left, there was only so much he could do.

The woman crushed the pills and soaked them in water and fed them mouthful after mouthful to the unconscious little girl.

In the afternoon, the little girl's fever had subsided, her forehead was still a little hot, and she slowly opened her eyes, "Mom! ”

Hearing her daughter's familiar and immature voice, the woman's red and swollen eyes flowed with tears again, and she hugged her tightly, "Niuniu." ”

Niuniu raised her hand to wipe the woman's tears, "Mom doesn't cry, Niuniu will be fine soon, Niuniu will get better and help Mom work." ”

When the woman heard this, her tears became even more turbulent, "Niuniu doesn't have to work in the future, Mom won't let you be wronged anymore, what do you want most for Niuniu's fifth birthday?" ”

The little girl shook her head and grinned, "I don't want anything, Niuniu wants a full meal." ”

The woman was stunned for a long time.

I prayed to God, hurry up and let people save them, it doesn't matter if she dies, her niuniu is still so young, she hasn't even eaten a full meal.

Niuniu's health is so bad, the fever has just subsided for an hour, and the fever has started again, and the antipyretic medicine has been eaten.

The woman was completely desperate, her tears had dried up, and she hugged her daughter in a daze without saying a word.

At this moment, an excited exclamation sounded from the rooftop, "There is a boat, there is a boat, there is a boat coming." ”

It immediately attracted the attention of many people, and the people who were numb just now immediately had a look on their faces, and they ran over to take a look.

Someone was pleasantly surprised: "It's really a boat!" ”

A villager pointed to the distance and said, "That person seems to be Ning Weihua from Osmanthus Village, I saw him once, and he looks good." ”

"When is the time, still pay attention to whether others look good or not, there are so many boats, we are saved."

These people were in a much lighter mood and shouted together, "We are here, come and save us!" ”

Ning Weihua heard the shouting, looked up, and saw the crowd on the roof, rowing faster.
