While the men were shoveling the snow, Wei Ruo and Xiumei, who were left in the shed, were not idle.
Because there was a cluster of bamboo forest not far from the path that everyone had dug, Wei Ruo and Xiumei cut some more and brought them back.
They expanded the shed with these bamboos and built a bamboo bed on the ground, about a meter wide and two meters long, large enough for an adult man to lie down.
After being covered with a blanket, it was certainly more comfortable than sitting directly on the icy stones.
It was a small place, only enough to build such a bamboo bed, but at least everyone could take turns to sleep for a while.
On the fourth day, they still couldn't leave this place, the weather was still very cold, and there was no sign of the snow melting.
Fortunately, Wei Ruo was able to cook for them for every meal, so no one was hungry.
