When the chicken soup was brought in, the air was immediately filled with the alluring aroma.

Gudong, gudong, gudong.

Gululu...

The three little ones held their deflated bellies, swallowed subconsciously, and their eyes turned green.

Chicken soup! Chicken! They haven't eaten meat for a long, long time.

Despite this, none of the three little ones asked for soup or meat. They just stood aside and stared at the coarse porcelain bowl, which was so sensible that it made people feel distressed.

Seeing this, He Daxiang hurriedly took the three children out. Seeing how greedy they were, the sister-in-law couldn't eat anymore.

Mrs. Su took the Yaobao and suppressed her sadness without looking at the three children.

I can't bear to see it.

any idea? The family was extremely poor, and that was the situation.

The palms and backs of my hands were full of flesh, so I could only focus on what was most important at the moment.

Yaobao is also hungry.

Even though she didn't want to eat, it seemed that her body and brain were not yet connected and out of control. When the spoon was brought to her mouth, she couldn't wait to open her mouth and slurped it quickly.

The temperature of the rice soup is just right, neither cold nor scalding your mouth. Once you take a sip, you will immediately feel warm in your body, smacking your lips, and you can still smell the faint fragrance of rice.

Yaobao's little mouth sucked more happily.

"It looks quite peaceful, and you eat like a hungry tiger pounces on its food." Old woman Su laughed, the creases at the corners of her eyes stretched, "Eat slowly, no one will compete with you."

Yaobao closed his eyes and sucked.

It's not that she wants to eat.

It’s the mouth that wants to eat.

The old woman was sitting on the edge of the wooden bed feeding her baby. The palm-sized room was cramped and furnished simply, except for a wooden table at the head of the bed, a low cabinet for clothing in the corner at the end of the bed, and not many stools.

Mr. and Mrs. Su watched their daughter eating, and for a while the only sound in the room was the sound of the baby slurping rice soup.

"What are you looking at? This old lady has brought up several babies. How can she still feed her baby? Hurry up and drink the chicken soup. The baby is waiting for milk. It will get cold if you let it go for a while." Mrs. Su cast a sideways look and said, " You should eat and drink when you should, so there is no need to leave some for this or that. The kids outside are already a few years old and they don’t want to compete with my sister for this food. I feel sorry for them. I will just make up for it from other places in the future. The days are long. "

"The baby will also grow."

Liu Yuelan's face felt hot after her mother-in-law revealed her thoughts, and she didn't dare to say anything. She took the soup bowl from the man's hand and started drinking the soup.

A coarse porcelain bowl about the size of an adult's two palms, filled with chicken soup, oily flowers floating on the top, and chicken meat filling the bottom. The aroma is fragrant. For people who have not seen meat for many years, this bowl is a treasure.

Liu Yuelan watched the three children swallowing their saliva just now. She really wanted to secretly save some chicken to satisfy the children's craving for food later.

But what my mother-in-law said is true, the baby must also grow.

It is difficult for poor families to survive the winter, and the baby was born at this time. If the milk cannot keep up, and the family is in this situation, how can such a young baby survive this long and cold winter...

"Eat." Su Da stood aside and whispered to his daughter-in-law, "When winter passes and spring begins, I will go to the mountains two more times to get some meat back for the children and the family."

"Yes." Liu Yuelan lowered her head and responded softly, tears quietly filling her eyes, trying not to fall.

She remembers her mother-in-law's love and her family's love so well.

Yao Bao couldn't bear to eat, but his ears couldn't be closed, so he was forced to listen to the conversations between adults.

She got the message that this family was very poor, even poorer than her previous family, and they couldn't even afford meat.

But it's different from the previous home. Here, they let everyone eat and don't grab it.

Also, "Grandma" said, the baby will also grow.

She is Yaobao.

The newborn baby was about to go to bed after eating and drinking. Yaobao burped with a rice-scented burp and yawned. He fell asleep in a daze, and could still hear the lively movement outside the window.

"Boy, please fix the pillar over there again. The heavy snow will definitely not stop for a while. Don't let the snow collapse the roof."

"You three little ones, I'll leave the snow in the yard to you. Once the yard is swept clean, we'll eat."

"Mom, what should we eat tonight?"

"Eat the sweet potatoes to make them gooey! And roast a big white radish for you!"

"Okay, I like to eat radishes! I'll leave the chicken soup for my aunt, who wants to nurse my sister."



Yao Bao's eyelids slowly dropped and he fell asleep.

He woke up and turned twice in a daze. When a warm and soft object was stuffed into his mouth, he subconsciously sucked on it, and then continued to sleep.



When I woke up again, my body suddenly felt cold.

The reflex consciousness formed by being pulled up in the middle of the night in the research room to have acupuncture and bone marrow extracted, Yao Bao suddenly opened his eyes and felt violent shaking in front of his eyes, followed by a roar like a mountain falling and the ground cracking, hitting his eardrums.

"There's an avalanche! Run!"

"Where are dad and mom? Are you out yet?"

"Come out, stop talking nonsense and run away!"

There were chaotic sounds all around, with roars and frightened cries everywhere.

As evening approached, mourning victims were everywhere in Dahuai Village.

Yao Bao was held in the arms of the young woman. When he fled the house, he did not forget to pull the quilt and wrap her tightly.

Even so, the newborn baby was exposed to the wind in the open air, and his face turned pale from the cold in the cold winter months.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Yaobao is not afraid, mother is here." Liu Yuelan hugged her daughter tightly and comforted her with a trembling voice. She was also in shock.

At this time, the whole family had all run out of the house, standing in the open space with lingering fear. People were running out one after another, making the scene chaotic and depressing.

Mrs. Su counted the number of people and saw that everyone in the family was alive. Then she breathed a sigh of relief. She put the thin quilt she had carried when she ran out over Liu Yuelan's body. Her pale lips squirmed and her eyes were red. After a while, she squeezed out two Word, "wrapped."

Liu Yuelan was young, and with just two words, she immediately forced out the tears she was holding back, "Mother..."

"Okay, why are you crying? It hurts your body to shed tears. Hold it back! It's a good thing if everyone is alive."

The rest of the Su family fell silent one after another. No one had the thought or energy to speak at this time.

Su Da and Su Er's couple each held three little cubs, and looked at the snow-capped mountain behind the village.

The snow-capped mountains are very high, and snow accumulates on the top of the mountain all year round.

When it collapses, it will be like the sky falling apart.

Fortunately, the avalanche went in the other direction. Although Dahuai Village was affected, the damage was considered small. Most of the villagers ran out and there were no casualties. Only some old, decaying houses partially collapsed in the tremor. .

Old man Su also looked in the direction of the avalanche. He was silent for a long time before speaking, his voice hoarse, "That's Xujia Village over there... a village that might be..."

Death is close at hand.

After escaping, the fear began to explode, and the cries around him became louder and more sad.

Yao Bao's vision was not clear enough, he could only hear the cries constantly bursting into his ears, and his heart was as light as water.

She has no ability to empathize. She only knows that when someone dies, someone cries. People cry because they are sad and sad.

But she doesn't understand what sadness is, and she can't feel it.

Yao Bao opened his eyes quietly, and there was a calm and indifference in his eyes that no one else could see.

The person who doesn't want to die is dead, and the person who wants to die is still a baby who can only lie down and eat.

I can't die even if I want to.

Things are so strange.
