Cai's mother rummaged through the corners of the bed, and when she saw the white fox in Cai Chun's arms, she settled down and hugged Cangbi, "Ah Chun, it's good that Ah Chun is fine, don't be afraid, mother is here."

Cai Chun didn't know what to do, so he had to wake up the sleeping Tu Langzhong. The doctor watched Cai's mother's abnormal movements for a long time, pointed to his head, and gave a diagnosis: "Maybe I smoked too much and hurt here. Maybe it will take a while." It's a good day."

"Maybe?" The joy in Cai Chun's heart that his mother woke up slowly faded away.

"Maybe, it will be like this for a lifetime." Tu Langzhong directly said the second half of the despairing sentence.

After Cai's mother and "son" finished making out, she called her husband again and asked, "Where's the house? How's the fever going? My illness doesn't matter. Don't bother the doctor all the time. When can I move back?"

"..." Looking at his mother's expecting eyes, Cai Chun couldn't tell that his home was a pile of ruins.

Cai's mother saw it right away, and her eyes filled with tears: "It won't be burned up, it's the only thing your father left behind, if it's gone, how can you explain to dad?"

"No...the house is still there." Cai Chun hurriedly replied, "It's just that the wall was burnt black, and the roof is leaking a little, and I'll go home after it's repaired.

For Chen Nuo, who is extremely difficult now, Cai Chun stopped reading books and didn't care about doing the work in the field. Holding bundles of thatch, he spent days and nights crappily building houses. Unfortunately, his hands are nothing but writing. , I can't do anything very quickly. After two or three days of tidying up, the thatch is piled up in a pile, and the ruins have not been cleared halfway, but the injury to my right hand is getting worse.

When the boy passed by, seeing his appearance, he called all the young people he knew in the village to help build the house. Cai Chuncheng refused in fear: "I can't pay the wages."

"Brother Cai, you used to teach us to read and write, and when did you receive money, why are you acting strange now?" the young man said, and several people around him responded one after another.

When there are more people, the progress of building the house will be faster. There are also people watching Cai Chun to prevent him from getting tired. During the rest, Cang Bi lay on Cai Chun's lap and rubbed the small hair that was sharpened under the white hair. blister.

In the past few days, he has also tried his best to help. A white fox shuttled among the people who were busy building thatched huts. Coupled with the deeds of protecting the Lord during the fire, he was deeply loved by the simple villagers.

"Snowball, come on, you're hungry." After distributing buckwheat buns to everyone, the young man specially reserved one for the white fox, and put it in front of Jianzui.

"Yellow steamed buns again..." Cang Bi was tired of eating this unattractive thing for a long time, poked her paws in disgust, and continued to work after the break, so she could only eat reluctantly, facing the back of the boy leaving Dying to say "thank you".

The human cushion Cai Chun was staring blankly at the half-finished thatched roof frame, Cangbi straightened her front legs, propped herself up, licked the scholar's cheek, her nose was pierced by the newly grown sideburns, she turned her head and sneezed, Said to Cai Chun: "Scholar, don't be so sullen, the doctor has already said that your mother's illness is still possible to be cured, no, no, no, it will definitely be cured."

Cai Chun listened to the whining of the white fox for a while, took him into his arms, rubbed his chin against his white head, and stroked the small blisters on his paws, his dark eyes were filled with confusion, and he didn't know what was reflected in it. After sitting for less than half an hour, he continued to hold the straw and joined the team of building the house.

When the first snow fell, the Cai family’s new house was finally built. Under Cai Chun’s insistence, the house was built exactly as it was before, except that the thatch was brand new, and there was no sign of being burnt to ruins at all.

The weather is getting colder and colder, Cai's mother still can't recognize people, her cough is getting worse, her health is getting worse, often in the middle of the night coughing is as deep as scratching her heart, and Cai Chun's heart is throbbing in the silent winter night. It made Cangbi very uncomfortable.

The snowfall this year was so heavy that it seemed to bury the whole world and collapsed the only bamboo bridge at the entrance of the village. Wuhua Village was surrounded by low mountains on three sides, and only this flat road could lead to the county town. No one can get out or get in for a while, and several strong villagers are busy repairing the bridge deck.

Cai Chun originally thought that he would go to the city to get things done after the house was built, but now he was delayed again, the buckwheat field was covered with a thin layer of snow, and the work in the field was gone, so he formed a thin layer along the road. Bing Xiting digs the snow to find herbs. The white fox doesn’t carry the bookcase. It just moves its hands numbly with preoccupation. From time to time, it takes a look at the entrance of the village in the distance. Whenever someone passes by, it asks: “Has the bridge been repaired?” If it is not repaired, just bury your head and continue digging.

That day, Cangbi was sitting under the eaves bored, looking at the snow that had finally gotten lighter, only to hear Cai's mother cough violently inside, and hurriedly opened the door and rushed in.

Relying on his fur, he wasn't very afraid of the cold, but he didn't want to freeze his sick mother Cai. He couldn't stay at home in his spare time, so he had to close the doors and windows and go for a walk in the small courtyard.

Cang Bi jumped onto the bed, her white paws helped Cai's mother breathe, but it took a long time, Cai's mother didn't stop, instead she coughed even worse.

Mother Cai faltered and murmured something, and suddenly woke up with a start, took out a faded gray cloth handkerchief from under the pillow, covered her mouth, shrank suddenly, and coughed up a large pool of blood on the cloth. Enter Pa.

"Mother..." This is not the first time Mother Cai has coughed up blood, but she has never coughed up so much at once. Cangbi panicked, rushed to the table and poured a glass of water lamely, all the way After rushing back, I sprinkled more than half of it before finally handing it to Mother Cai.

Cai's mother took a sip of cold water and finally stopped coughing. Her pale face just now had a healthy blush. She sat up and stuffed the cloth into Cangbi's claws: "Ah Chun, good girl, my mother It's okay, you hide this veil, but don't let your father see it, or he will make a fuss again."

Cangbi hugged the blood-stained cloth handkerchief, at a loss: "Mother, you will be fine."

"Be obedient, go and hide quickly, it's getting dark soon, and your father will be back soon." Cai's mother pushed the white back and urged.

Cangbi hesitated for a while, but under Cai's mother's repeated urging, he searched a large circle in the house, but failed to find a place to hide things. Suddenly, he rushed to the root of the fence at the corner of the courtyard outside the house, and spread his front paws. Pull up the thick snow, and after clearing the snow three times, five times and two times, they start digging on the mud.

The dirt is not as easy to dig as the soft snow. After digging less than three inches, Cangbi covered her claws alternately and murmured for a long while. The hole is not deep, but the quick veil is enough anyway. This kind of thing would not come to such a corner, and it should not be discovered by Cai Chun.

As a result, after burying for a long time, an obvious small slope was buried, and the raised soil was smoothed out, and the corners of the cloth handkerchief were exposed again. Cangbi circled the cloth handkerchief twice, and had to take out the cloth handkerchief to continue digging. Unexpectedly, this time it was even more difficult. After four or five times of planing, the nail hit a hard rock and broke.

"Hey...again." Cang Bi retracted her paws, feeling distressed. This is the first time since she came here. It seems that the fox's paws are not suitable for her. Looking at the pit again, the depth is no different from just now. "Um?"

At the bottom of the pit, the blue broken nails were lying peacefully, but the culprit of the bed was not a dusty stone, but a dark brown smooth stone surface reflecting brilliance.
