Xia Jian knew that Guan Tingna was anxious when she saw the snow falling harder, so he quickly answered the phone, only to hear Guan Tingna yell on the phone: "Mr. Xia! What's going on with you? Where are you now?"

"Oh! Because the snow is getting heavier and heavier, we got off the expressway in advance and are now taking shelter from the snow in Hongluo Village next to the national highway. Don't worry, we have found a house in the village and will stay here tonight."

Xia Jian said to Guan Tingna while lighting the fire.

When Ting Na heard that they had found a house to live in, she sighed and said: "That's fine! It's not easy to drive in such heavy snow. So, you ask Li Ya to give them more money and put them in the house."

Make your life better."

"Don't worry, this family is nice and the conditions are not bad. We won't suffer. Let's do it! You quickly call the various projects and ask them to make relevant preparations. The snow tonight will last for a while.

I can’t stop for a while, especially the fruit trees in Pingyang Town.”

"Okay, I understand. Now that you have settled in, I'm relieved."

After Guan Tingna finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

Xia Jian put his cell phone in his pocket. He stood up, walked to the door, lifted the curtain, and looked outside. Oh my God, I could only see a vast expanse of white and couldn't see anything.

"Uncle! It's snowing so hard and it's been falling non-stop. Could something happen?"

"Who says it isn't? It hasn't snowed so heavily in many years."

The old man let out a sigh of relief, sat by the fire and smoked his big pipe.

The old lady shook her head and said, "Smoke less, or the smell of your cigarette will infect the children."

When Yang Xue saw it, she hurriedly waved her hands and said, "It's okay, grandma, we are not afraid of the smell, but we find it nice. I just see that you only have one big kang here. Which room should we sleep in at night?"

"Oh! This kang is big. You three will sleep at night, and we will sleep on the small kang in the west room. Hey! Old man, go and see if the kang in the west room is hot."

The old lady chuckled. She spoke with a calm and unscrupulous expression. However, Yang Xue's face turned slightly red and she lowered her head in embarrassment. After all, few people had lived in this Datong kang house.

Firstly, Li Ya has been with Xia Jian for a long time, and secondly, she has more experience than Yang Xue, so she smiled very naturally and said: "I haven't slept on the kang for a long time, and now I just look at it and I want to sleep."

Li Ya's generosity made Yang Xue realize something. In this situation where the road was blocked by heavy snow, it would be good to find a family to take them in, let alone give them such a good kang to sleep on.

It is even more valuable.

It was getting dark, but the snow was still falling outside. The old lady wanted to cook, so Li Ya got up and went to help. Yang Xue also wanted to go, but Li Ya said with a smile: "You'd better talk to Mr. Xia.

It’s enough food for two people to cook for five people in total.”

"It's simple. Just fry some potatoes, cabbage and so on, and then have steamed buns. If you don't have any soup, just get some boiling water."

Xia Jian loudly made arrangements for Li Ya. Li Ya smiled and followed the old lady to the kitchen.

Yang Xue took a peek at Xia Jian and asked, "Mr. Xia! Do all the farmers here sleep on the kang?"

"I'm not talking about the farmers here, but in our city, almost all rural areas sleep on Kangs. Because there are no heaters in rural areas, the beds are simply too cold to sleep on."

"Isn't it okay to put an electric blanket on the bed?"

"There's no way an electric blanket is as comfortable as sleeping on a heated bed, especially on a snowy night like this. I can't get you an electric blanket to sleep on tonight."

Xia Jian just made a joke casually, because in a situation like this, where can I get an electric blanket?

Yang Xue was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and said: "No need, I will experience the charm of this big kang tonight. This is the first time I have encountered such heavy snow in my life, and it is also the first time I have slept on a big kang. Maybe this

It’s the best memory in my life.”

Young people are always full of fantasies about life. As Yang Xue talked, she made this matter poetic and picturesque.

Suddenly, there was a loud clicking sound in the yard. Xia Jian jumped up in fright. He quickly ran out of the room and took a look. It turned out that there was too much snow on a tree and the branches were broken.

Already.

The old man ran out with a flashlight and said with a sigh: "This is going to be a big trouble. Many people in our village have planted fruit trees. Looking at it like this, I'm afraid many fruit tree branches have been crushed.

."

This topic is a bit heavy for the old man. I originally thought that such a thick snow was a great joy for farmers. Isn't there a saying that goes like this: "This winter, you will be covered with three layers of wheat quilts, and next year you will sleep with steamed buns on your pillow."

Now it seems that this heavy snow has become a disaster.

Dinner was ready. It was fried potatoes and cabbage, and there were also freshly baked green onion rolls. After eating a lot of fish and meat for a long time, Xia Jian actually felt a sense of intimacy. He ate this meal.

There were so many that Yang Xue and Li Ya were almost dumbfounded.

While they were eating, the sound of branches being broken by snow could be heard from time to time in and around the yard, which sounded a little scary.

The old man was eating, feeling like he was chewing wax. Xia Jian noticed that the old man's expression was abnormal, so he hurriedly asked: "What's going on? Are you worried about something?"

"To tell you the truth, the house we live in is a bit old, and I'm worried that there will be problems with such thick snow on it. I'm not worried about the east and west rooms, which were built in the past two years."

As the old man spoke, he couldn't help but breathed out again.

When Xia Jian heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Don't be afraid of that. We will go to the house to remove the snow after dinner, and just get all the snow off the house for him. But do you have a ladder at home for going up to the house?"

"There is a ladder, just put it behind the house. It will be hard on you. It's so late and it's hard to go to the village to find someone. Besides, our family is not in a situation like ours."

"It's okay. You don't need to go to the village for this trivial matter. It's enough for me and Mr. Xia. After a while, I will go up to the roof, and Mr. Xia will help me hold the ladder below. Yang Xue will use the flashlight, and the uncle and grandma will warm the kang."

Li Ya was so smart that she assigned work tasks on the spot. She was just afraid that Xia Jian would compete with her to get the apartment.

As soon as Li Ya dropped her chopsticks, she ran outside. Xia Jian laughed and said, "You can't go up to the house alone. We need two people. If you don't finish shoveling the snow, the house will collapse."

Yang Xue was stunned for a moment, then she said reluctantly: "Then you have to be careful, doing things at night is very different from during the day, especially in a house like this."

"Okay, let's find a rope and tie it around your and my waist, you in front and me in the back, so it won't fall off easily."
