Nier quickly took out the remaining snake repellent and sprinkled it around the tent again.

Thinking back to what happened just now, I was really nervous.

After finishing the work, I felt relieved and touched Yuanbao's head.

"Good job! If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have discovered it. If it had bitten someone, the consequences would have been serious."

Yuanbao rubbed against Ni'er and arched his back.

The fluffy and warm dog head in the palm of your hand is so heart-melting.

Yuanbao let down his guard, relaxed, closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.

The surroundings returned to silence, and listening to the occasional chirping of insects and the crackling of firewood was really pleasant.

I looked up at the sky and sighed silently, wondering what everyone’s life would be like after the flood receded.

Compared with Ni'er's comfortable situation, the old lady felt rather uncomfortable.

I couldn't sleep at all. My face was always itchy and there was the sound of insects flapping their wings in my ears.

If you slap your hands hard on your face, a lot of insect corpses will be left behind. They are sticky and you have nowhere to put them, so you have to rub them on your clothes.

Fortunately, there was a stretcher for everyone to lie on, but everyone else had to lie directly on the ground.

It was so cold and damp that it was impossible to fall asleep, and Fugui's teeth were chattering from the cold.

The sound of the upper teeth hitting the lower teeth woke up the eldest son's wife.

"Son, you must be cold, come here."

Fugui's butt still hurt. He didn't have enough for dinner and it was so cold outside. He felt very aggrieved. When had he ever suffered such pain?

Man Guan was still looking down on Grandma, but now she doesn't even care about him anymore. Every day he is always worried about something.

He endured the pain in his butt and moved towards his mother. The eldest son's wife hugged Fugui, and he felt a little warmer.

After a while, I finally stopped shaking, but I still couldn't fall asleep. Almost everyone in the village was on the mountain, and Ni'er and her family should be there too, but I didn't know their exact location.

I don’t know what they ate at night or where they stayed. I don’t know what kind of good place they found. I wonder if they would be bitten by mosquitoes all over their faces and shiver from the cold like me.

I felt unhappy, but I had to comfort myself. Although her family was much richer than mine, it was still cold for everyone when spending the night in the mountains. It didn't matter if they were rich or not.

I suddenly felt better. This must be the case. I will go look for it tomorrow to confirm my thoughts.

I wrapped the tattered quilt around myself and tucked it in carefully, and it finally helped.

No matter how cold it is, I have to sleep, otherwise I won’t have the energy to look for Ni’er tomorrow.

The old lady was lying on a stretcher, wrapped in a quilt by herself.

I have never slept in the wild before, and this is my first time. It is so uncomfortable.

The eldest and second oldest families both have several people sharing one quilt.

Jinshui and Xiuli had nothing to cover themselves with, and their clothes were thin. They curled up in a corner, breathing into their hands constantly.

"Sister, do you think we will freeze to death here?"

"Don't talk nonsense. We all want to live a long life."

"It's really too cold, it's no different from winter, my legs feel like they've been frozen to pieces."

"Then let's get up and move around. We'll feel better."

Jinshui and Xiuli got up quietly for fear of waking everyone up. In fact, no one was asleep and they were all dozing off.

The old lady heard some noise here and wondered who was not sleeping so late at night. She really deserved to be scolded. She opened her eyes and vaguely saw the figures of Jinshui and Xiuli walking away in the distance.

I was secretly delighted and thought, let's go, let's go as far away as possible. It would be best if the wolves could take the food away and eat it all, so that I don't have to feed them and waste food.

He looked at Fugui and Manguan again, feeling a little distressed. How could people live in such a shabby place? It was so cold.

Seeing them pulling at the quilt and unable to cover themselves properly, with one person or the other freezing, he reached out and touched his own quilt, and had some other ideas.

Originally, I didn't want to sleep with the children because I was afraid that they would be naughty and kick me in my sleep, which would completely break my legs and I would have to spend the rest of my life confined to the kang.

Thinking about how Man Guan is a relatively quiet sleeper, he is like a dead pig when he sleeps. Fugui has a wound on his butt, so he might be hurt and move around because he feels uncomfortable.

After much thought, I decided to let Man Guan come over. If the second brother and his wife share a quilt, there won't be so much wind coming in, and they will be warmer.

It just so happened that Man Guan was not asleep either, and was looking around with his little eyes. His house was leaking wind and rain, and the conditions were already quite difficult. He had never met any other family like his own.

I didn’t expect it to be more difficult in the wild, but I was able to adapt. I yawned quietly and found that grandma was waving at me.

Man Guan suspected that he was dazzled. What was grandma doing? She usually sleeps so well, so she should have fallen asleep long ago. Was she sleepwalking?

Or maybe I was hit by something strange in the woods.

I was frightened and woke up instantly.

But grandma seemed to be waving at me.

He swallowed, his heart pounding, and pointed his index finger at himself.

Unexpectedly, there was a reaction. She nodded, and the feeling of panic disappeared instantly. Grandma was not asleep.

Why are you calling me in the middle of the night? If you want to go to the bathroom, you should call an adult.

Forget it, I'd better go over there, lift the quilt, and walk up to the old lady in two or three steps.

"Grandma, what do you want to call me for?"

The old lady patted the stretcher and motioned for him to sit on it.

Man Guan was not polite and sat down when asked to, but he couldn't sit down all the time for fear of hurting someone, so he moved forward carefully.

"Nothing, I just want you to sleep over here. It's so cold for the three of you to share one blanket."

Man Guan was overjoyed to hear this, Fugui had completely fallen out of favor. Such good things usually wouldn't happen to him, it always belonged to Fugui. Ever since that incident, A'nai's attitude towards Fugui had become lukewarm. He really couldn't seek death.

Haha, poor Fugui, this blessing is enjoyed by him.

"Okay, grandma, let's sleep together. It will be warmer. I won't kick the quilt."

I just lifted the quilt and crawled in. It was indeed warmer. I guess I can fall asleep tonight.

Regardless of whether he was asleep or not, he stuck out his tongue in Fugui's direction and shook his head from side to side smugly.

Fugui really wasn't asleep. He had his eyes closed and only opened them when he heard the noise.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Man Guan walking towards Grandma. They talked for a while and then got into bed.

From this angle, you can clearly see Grandma's expression, her eyes are full of love and affection for Man Guan.

I was mad with jealousy, tears were streaming down my face, but I tried hard to stop myself from crying out loud.

Why didn’t I listen to Man Guan’s advice at the beginning? Instead of telling others that grandma was dying, I regret it so much.

Now, I am no longer the most favored child in the family. What should I do? How can I make grandma pay attention to me?
