Hearing An Shuyao's voice, Aunt He quickly turned around and said, "Oh, my lady, please go back to the room and sit down. What did you do when you came out? Madam will blame you later."
An Shuyao shook his head: "I'm fine. Which household are you talking about just now?"
"That's the Xu family. Didn't their family live in a dilapidated thatched house? As a result, the snow was so thick and heavy that the house collapsed."
Liu Yuxue’s aunt’s house?
An Shuyao felt isolated from the world after not leaving the house for a while.
"Miss, come in quickly. Don't worry about things outside. The master and madam will make arrangements."
An Shuyao sat on a chair in the house. The door was closed tightly by Aunt He. She looked at the strawberries, picked up one and took a bite. It was sweet.
The plate was so full that An Shuyao wondered if An Jingzhou had picked all the ripe strawberries in her house.
"Little aunt." The door of the house was gently opened a small opening.
An Hao poked his head outside the house and came in. He blinked his eyes and said, "Little aunt, Hao Hao is here to see you."
His round little body in clothes squeezed in, and his little hands closed the door again.
"Hao'er, come and sit next to aunt."
An Hao climbed up on a small stool on one side with his little feet, and An Shuyao gave him a strawberry.
He stretched out his little hand and took it: "Thank you, little aunt."
Then he was eating happily on the side. An Shuyao looked at him with gentle eyes. An Shuyao thought that he was greedy for strawberries.
Two people, one eats and the other reads medical books.
Finally, An Shuyao found a way to solve the cold syndrome. These books were all left to her after her grandfather passed away. She only learned about them in general and there was a lot of knowledge. She was too lazy to read them, so she thought it was enough.
In this short period of time, she was troubled by a woman suffering from cold syndrome. She didn't study much about gynecology, but this time she benefited a lot.
At the same time, she felt a little ashamed of her grandfather's teachings, so she decided to read all the medical books on space.
The first day of December.
There was a heavy snowstorm overnight and the mountains were blocked by heavy snow.
Except for the brick houses in the village that were not affected, all the other thatched houses collapsed. From that day on, the whole rock village was filled with cries.
Most of the people crying hoarsely were women, shouting "It's all over" one by one. Their voices were so far away that An Shuyao heard them in the room.
She was dressed thickly, put on a water-blue fox fur cloak, and walked out with the small heater in her hand.
There was a lot of commotion at the entrance of the courtyard, and the whole family was outside. After An Shuyao walked out, he asked, "What's wrong?"
Lu Jin took a look and turned to face her: "It's cold outside, go back inside."
An Shuyao shook his head gently: "I don't want to stay in the house anymore. What happened outside?"
Lu Jin raised his eyebrows lightly: "Shi San's house collapsed, and she is sitting outside crying."
An Shuyao went out and took a look. Sure enough, Shi San's house was right next door to the Hu family's house. It was a thatched house that had been built for more than ten years. There had been no problems. Unexpectedly, it snowed every day during this period, but it had damaged the house. Collapsed.
She frowned slightly: "Will the county government take care of it?"
Lu Jin opened his thin lips lightly: "Every year there is a snowstorm in Anzhou. Usually someone transports supplies from Beijing to remedy the situation a month before, but this year there is none."
Speaking of which, the snow has been falling since November, and some people in the village have no food, but the county magistrate has done nothing. Now the heavy snow has blocked the mountain, making it difficult to go out, let alone come in.
An Shuyao's face turned cold: "Is this intentional to trap us people here to death?"
Lu Jin lowered his eyes: "Even if there is corruption, some of it will be leaked to the people below. At least the people will not starve to death in a real sense. This year is a bit abnormal."
An Yue walked to Lu Jin's side and said with a smile: "The outcome is obviously easy to see. Lu Xian has no intention of saving Anzhou at all, or he has received the "gift" we gave him, and we have all fought back. He definitely won't
I will sit back and wait for death."
He let out a breath: "He deliberately ordered the exile of Rock Village. There is no need to wait for the county magistrate. I don't know if the villagers here can survive this winter."
Everything is as An Yue said.
At this time, the county government of Taolin County.
Yuan Yi and Song Zibai were requesting Magistrate Qian to send troops to support them. They all received a message from Anjia and knew that Rock Village was more difficult and they could find a way out with their own meager strength even if the mountain was blocked by heavy snow.
But Qian Feng received a warning from the superiors. Rock Village should not be taken care of throughout the winter. It is their life to survive, and it has nothing to do with them if they cannot survive.
Qian Feng didn't dare to ask more questions, because it was said that it meant "top", and it was unknown how big the official position was.
Qian Feng drank tea with a look of distress on his face: "Two young masters, look at what's going on outside now. Even if I am willing to send people to shovel the snow, the manpower is not shoveling the snow as fast as God. Don't put me at risk."
All the government officials froze to death."
Song Zibai pursed his lips: "What about the supplies shipped from Beijing? Why weren't they sent to each village from the beginning? Now the disasters in each village are varying degrees of seriousness. Those people whose houses were crushed by snow can't help themselves at night.
You can't go home, you'll freeze to death outside."
Qian Feng was helpless: "There is really nothing I can do. To tell you the truth, this year's supplies are available in all counties, except for those in Taolin County. I can't save them."
Yuan Yi was shocked: "Why? Are the people in Beijing giving up on Anzhou?"
Qian Feng shook his head: "It's not that we gave up Anzhou, but that we gave up Taolin County, so it's up to them whether they can survive. The two young masters had better pray for less snow, otherwise after one winter, the people over there will
People in several villages either starved to death or froze to death."
Yuan Yi and Song Zibai looked ugly. The land in Anzhou was barren and they needed help every year. There was not a year when they didn't send something.
Only this year, a new emperor came to the throne in Beijing. The emperor who had been in office for a full year seemed to have been exiled. The specific place where he was exiled was not known to ordinary people like them.
The two of them guessed that the emperor must have refused to give these supplies, otherwise these officials would not dare to take human lives even if they had a hundred courages.
Yuan Yi walked out of the county office angrily: "I think this emperor is worse than the last one. At least when the old emperor was here, nothing like this happened in Anzhou. Even if there were snowstorms in various places, there were no casualties among the people. Now I
As far as I know, in the five nearby villages, some people’s houses collapsed and they were frozen to death, and some had nothing to eat and started eating the frozen tree bark outside.”
"This is something that can only happen in times of famine. Now that the country is prosperous and the people are strong, people can still eat tree bark in winter. Will they have to dig up Guanyin soil to eat it after a while?"
