535 to tide over the difficulties together

After getting up early in the morning to clear the snow, they had to help the villagers repair the roof of the house during the day, such a large amount of work even Yang and Su Guangfu were a little tired, so the two of them overslept the next day.

But fortunately, it didn't continue to snow the next day, so everyone didn't have to continue to clear the snow.

Unexpectedly, the continuous snowfall was far from over, so it was sunny for an occasional day, but the next day was an overwhelming snowfall.

So intermittently for half a month.

In the past half a month, at first, Su Guangfu took the Yang family and a few familiar craftsmen to help repair the house, but then he was too busy, so he mobilized other middle-aged laborers who could come in handy to help together.

However, this kind of heavy snowfall is too dangerous when it snows, so naturally it is impossible to work. And if there is damage to the house after the snowfall, several people are busy for three or four days to repair the house, and the repair is strong.

Su Qingluanxin said that it was fortunate that many recipes in the village had been renovated and strengthened in the name of "welfare", otherwise there would not have been many incidents in the heavy snow one after another.

But again, everyone's houses are old houses, and even if they are renovated, they must be very different from newly built houses.

What's more, the materials needed to build a new house are also different, and those that are strong, durable, and warm enough are expensive.

To put it mildly, a house of that level would cost a lot of money to live in. Mo said that other villagers in Huaxi Village couldn't afford to live there, and even the Su family, who now had a small amount of savings at home, could never afford the sky-high sums of money.

What's more, it is still the same sentence, "Shengmi En fights against rice", even if Su Qingluan uses various names to give benefits to the "employees" of the helpers, it cannot far exceed their labor income.

She believes in the bright side of human nature, but also understands that the darkness of human nature is unfathomable. So she watched other families pay cloth or exchange food for how much they were paid, and she didn't stop it—it was Daddy's labor.

Because of the snowfall this time, the real heavy snow covers the mountain, so let alone go to the nearest Lefeng Town, even if it is close to Panshan Road, it is strictly forbidden.

In fact, in order to make more money at the beginning, there were always those who did not believe in evil and were not afraid of danger to go out to try their luck.

However, the heavy snow has been piling up on the slope of the mountain for several days, and although the slope is not comparable to the famous mountain with a "thousand walls", the amount of snow accumulated on the steep slope is also very amazing.

The old people in the village tried their best to persuade the young people not to go out at this time, and even Sun Guixiang persuaded Li Sanlang, although there were still two pairs of medicines, but she took care of her body carefully and drank more ingredients to replenish qi and blood - when Su Qingluan went to the town before, he brought a lot of jujube longan and wolfberry to the Li family.

Li Sanlang listened to persuasion, but not everyone listened to persuasion, there were always those who did not believe in evil, or it was also to exchange more food for the family to chew, even if the villagers tried every possible means to dissuade them, there were still people who gritted their teeth and took the finished handicrafts or peeled animal skins to go to the town to exchange for some food.

However, these young men went to five people, only two came back, and the other three were buried under the vast snow in an instant due to an avalanche while crossing the mountain road, and they didn't even have time to escape.

Of the three deceased men, two of them were one family, and the other was the only son of the family, and now the sky was falling on both families. It was already very difficult to endure the severe cold winter, and now the snow disaster killed people, which made it even worse.

This time the avalanche caused the three people to be buried alive in Huaxi Village, a small mountain village that is calm and has no major disasters, which can be regarded as a big event.

Regardless of the reaction, one thing is for sure – until the snow on the mountain melts completely the following year, no one will dare to risk being buried alive in the town.

This also made Su Qingluan very clear to understand why there are no difficult and dangerous sections in Huaxi Village, and the mountain will be closed when it snows in winter - a very important reason is that there will be an avalanche on the slope at any time, so that pedestrians will be buried between the ice and snow.

The road to the town was blocked, so it was impossible to buy some good wood or anything. Therefore, the repair of the house can only be repaired with the scrap materials that everyone puts in the warehouse.

But how strong can this material be? Add to that the painstaking effort of repairing a room, and it's all too easy to destroy a house on a snowy day – there's always too little to do in the face of nature.

The middle-aged laborers in the village, even the thirteen and half-year-olds, were brought over and used, but they still couldn't keep up with the speed at which the houses were destroyed.

In the end, what was afraid of something, this kind of continuous wind and snow finally made a house unbearable, and most of the whole house was blown down, and the heating kang in the house was also smashed.

The neighbors next to him also ate and hung up, although it was not very serious, but a corner of the house was also lifted, and a cold wind was blowing inside the house.

As a result, although the damage to the second room was not particularly serious, it was uninhabitable.

In the beginning, everyone around us was able to squeeze in as a family, leaving a place for a bed or two for the temporarily homeless neighbor to spend a few nights – only temporarily, anyway.

And the person who stays overnight will also try to help the host family do more housework as a "borrowing fee".

However, everyone still underestimates the destructive power of these snowstorms, as the snowfall continues to increase, and the cold wind is still biting, the houses that are not particularly good because of the quality of the materials have some quality problems.

It's easy to destroy a house, but it's hard to build a house.

However, later a person who surprised Su Qingluan solved the problem of "serious shortage of building materials".

"What do you mean, Somber?" The village was looking at the smiling Songbo on the other side.

"That's not what I meant, it's what the proprietor meant—the bamboos in that yard, instead of letting them be blown down in the cold wind, should be used to build the beams." Bamboo is tough and grows very quickly, making it a great simple building material when treated.

Although it is certainly not as good as some heavy solid wood, it is much better than filling the broken area with weeds at this juncture.

So everyone planned to hula la to thank Mr. Mu, but Song Bo smiled very restrained and polite: "The owner has always been sick and weak, especially on this cold day, I'm afraid that after the cold, I will convey everyone's thanks, but I won't bother everyone to go and thank you." ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, not looking at the Su family with a superfluous look, nor did he have the feeling of occasionally taking off the line when Mu Xingzhi was there in private, and he was more calm than Su Qingluan's impression, which reminded her of the first time she saw each other.

There is a saying that "a good woman is a cook without rice", and with the building materials at hand, the work of repairing the house, especially the beams, can naturally continue.
