Several people locked the chickens, ducks and rabbits in the woodshed, and checked the cowshed. There was no need to worry too much, after all, the cows were strong and the mother cow would not be hurt even if the cowshed collapsed. As for the calves, they would naturally be protected by the mother cow. Qiao Qingyun's horse was also an adult horse, but Yan Zhenshen still untied the rope. If the shed collapsed, it would know how to hide.

Then Yan Zhenshen led a group of hunting dogs to the main hall.

At this time, everyone in the house got up. The wind was so strong that no one wanted to continue sleeping in. If the roof was blown off, people would get hurt.

The whole family sat in the main room, not daring to light a fire to keep warm. The room was pitch dark, and Yan Zhenbei was so sleepy that he leaned against Yan Sanmei and dozed off.

Yan Zhennan also felt a little cold, so he pulled Qiao Qingyun to the side of Dahuang and Dahei and used their fur to keep warm.

She looked around again, and under the cover of darkness, she pulled the person into her arms and whispered in the person's ear: "My husband is holding you, and I won't be cold anymore."

Dahuang and Dahei turned their heads to glance at the two people who were being affectionate with each other, then lay quietly on the ground again.

Even the wolf cubs were huddled at Chu Xiao's feet obediently. Only Xiao Hui, the silly dog, was sniffing here and there, completely unaware of his owners' emotions.

Zhao Guizhi sighed, "Big brother and second brother, when it's daybreak, go check around the village, especially Old Man Sun's house. If the roof is damaged, give him a hand."

"I understand." Yan Zhenshen hugged Chu Xiao and let his husband continue to sleep in his arms.

Listening to the sound of the wind outside, I feel that the blue brick and tile house should really be covered up, otherwise when there is strong wind and heavy snow, we will worry that the roof will not be able to hold up.

Fortunately, when the sky was getting light, the wind died down a little. Zhao Guizhi rubbed her stiff legs and said, "Let's all go back to the house and sleep for a while."

Yan Zhennan was also yawning at this time. He held Qiao Qingyun's hand in a daze and said, "Mom, Ah Yun and I will go back to the house first. Call me when it's dawn."

Being held by the hand in front of so many people, Qiao Qingyun felt a little embarrassed, and his ears even turned slightly red.

Zhao Guizhi glared at him angrily: "You two are the only ones going back, and Xiaobei doesn't care?"

Yan Zhennan then remembered that he seemed to have a younger brother. He laughed and woke up the sleeping Yan Zhenbei: "Xiaobei, go back to your room and sleep."

Yan Zhenbei narrowed one eye, then rubbed it with his hand, then stood up from the stool and followed Yan Zhennan like a wandering soul.

He returned to the room, took off his shoes, threw himself on the kang, closed his eyes and continued to sleep soundly.

Yan Zhennan patted his butt and said, "Sleep straight. If you sleep like this, are you going to let your second brother sleep on you?"

Yan Zhenbei squirmed for a bit, then stopped responding. Yan Zhennan reached out to touch his butt again, but Qiao Qingyun pulled him back: "He's still young, just hold him over."

Since his wife had said so, he didn't want to appear to be too heartless, so he could only carry her to the head of the kang and then take his wife to sleep.

After breakfast the next day, Yan Zhenshen and Yan Zhennan went for a walk around the village. There was nothing wrong with Old Sun’s house, but the warehouse where the grain was stored collapsed.

When the two brothers went there, Wang Wu and several young men from the village were already helping. They had to move the wood out of the way so that they could get the grain out.

Wang Wu was delighted when he saw them coming over: "Hey, Boss Yan, I knew you would definitely come over."

Yan Zhenshen didn't say anything, but Yan Zhennan said, "I also guessed that I would definitely see you when I came here."

"Hey, or we can say that we are in perfect sync." Wang Wu patted the dust off his hands and said, "Brother, don't just stand there and watch. Come over here and give me a hand."

Yan Zhennan glanced at the thick beams and pushed Wang Wu aside: "Let my brother and I do this. You've just become a father, so don't sprain your back again, or you'll have to spend the New Year's holiday with your husband."

Several young men nearby burst into laughter. One of them said, "I think that's about right. Yesterday I heard his mother scold him for drinking his son's goat milk."

Wang Wu refused to accept: "I just wanted to taste it."

After a while of hard work, several people here rescued all the food that was trapped underneath Old Sun and helped move it to the west room.

It is certainly possible to repair the warehouse, but the ground is frozen hard and cannot be pried open. We can only wait until spring.

Old Sun boiled some hot water for them to wash their hands. During this time, he took out the brown sugar that had been stored for the whole winter and prepared to make brown sugar water for them to drink.

Wang Wu saw this and quickly tried to stop them: "Uncle Sun, we can't drink that, just give us some hot water."

Yan Zhennan also echoed: "That's right, otherwise it would really be like confinement after childbirth."

When Wang Wu heard that he was still teasing him, he raised his hand to hit him: "Yan Lao Er, do you really think that your fifth brother doesn't dare to deal with you?"

"I didn't hit him." Yan Zhennan smiled and hid behind his brother.

Yan Zhenshen didn't give him any face at all. He directly reached out and took the man out and pushed him in front of Wang Wu: "Beat him harder."

Yan Zhennan: “…” He seriously suspected that his brother was seeking revenge for personal gain and was still upset about not breaking his leg.

Wang Wu pretended to pat Yan Zhennan twice and said, "See, your elder brother won't help you."

As they were playing around, they heard a cry, and then a group of children ran and shouted, "There's a dead body! We dug up a dead body."

Last night the wind was strong and snowflakes were everywhere. After the wind stopped, thick snow piled up on several slopes at the entrance of the village, and the highest places were more than a person high.

The snow was hard, and the children in the village would go there to play. They would dig a passage by digging it little by little, entering from this side and exiting from the other side.

The child's cry was full of tears, and it was obvious that he was also scared. Soon, the grandson of Old Man Sun ran in and said, "Grandpa, Gousheng and his friends found a person in the snow. They said he was frozen into an ice sculpture. I'm scared."

Old Sun quickly put down the brown sugar in his hand and hugged the crying child to him: "Don't be afraid, grandpa is here, come into the house and warm up, grandpa will go to check."

Wang Wu, a gossip lover, was eager to try after hearing the noise. "Uncle Sun, your legs and feet are not in good condition. I'll go take a look."

"Let's go together?" Wang Wu did not forget to call others. If someone really froze to death, they would need help.

Not only these few people, many people who heard the noise were walking towards this side.

Those who were closer to the village entrance had already peeled off the snow and saw that there was indeed a person in the snow, curled up in a state, obviously because he felt cold.

But it is highly likely that he did not die of freezing, because there are people who freeze to death in Anning Town almost every year, and naturally everyone knows the characteristics of freezing to death.

Most people have bright red or black skin, but this one's skin is blue and purple, with ice all over his face, and it looks more like he died of suffocation.

Considering the strong wind last night, everyone probably knows what happened.
