With the gloomy sky overhead, Mu Shi looked up at the dark clouds and said to Mu Yangling, “It’ll probably snow again tomorrow. I wonder how your eldest great-aunt’s family is doing. Tomorrow, I’ll wake up early and go to her house to take a look. At the same time, I’ll clean up the roads in the mountains.”
“Father, it’s very dangerous to walk on the mountain path in such heavy snow.”
Mu Shi smiled and stroked her head. “Since the snow in the mountains fell upon the trees instead, there’s less snow on the road than outside. Even if the mountain path is difficult to walk on, with my experience, I won’t fall.”
Mu Yangling turned around and glanced at Shu Wanniang. She said in a low voice, “Father, you have to come back quickly. Mother has been a little uneasy these past few days.”
Mu Shi also turned around to look at his wife. There was still about a month before she was due to give birth. He did not know if the sudden change in the weather was the reason for Wanniang’s discomfort, but she had been frowning for the past two days and could not sleep at night.
Mu Shi didn’t dare to leave the house for too long, so he said, “Don’t worry. Father will be back soon. If your mother isn’t feeling well, go find your eldest great-aunt and the others and ask them to help.”
Although he said that, Mu Shi did not want to hand his wife over to others. Therefore, the next day, when Shu Wanniang was still sleeping, he got up and dressed. Without eating breakfast, he climbed the mountain to West Mountain Village.
It usually took Mu Yangling 45 minutes to cross the mountain. Even though it was difficult to walk on the snowy road, it still only took Mu Shi 45 minutes this time. When he arrived at West Mountain Village and saw Madam Ma-Liu’s house, Mu Shi’s entire face turned cold.
The left half of the Ma residence had been crushed by the snow. Xiuhong’s two children were wearing cotton-padded jackets and seated around the brazier. However, since there was wind leaking from one side, even if there was a fire, the two children were still snuggled up tightly.
Mu Shi looked around but did not see Madam Ma-Liu. His gaze darkened as he strode into the Ma residence. “Xiuhong, where’s your grandmother?”
Ma Xiuhong looked up in surprise, her eyes red as she shouted, “Uncle!”
When Ma Xiulan saw Mu Shi, she burst into tears.
