Explain what happens to stainslovas during the snowstorm. How does this negatively affect him and his family?

During the snowstorm, Stanislovas gets a nasty frost on his fingers. He tries to warm his fingers, but they are frozen. He damages his knuckles for life and screams in pain in the house until Jurgis beats him to be quiet. From that day forward, Stanislovas has to be beaten before he will leave the house during the cold. While Stanislovas is not working, his family has no money.
