Chapter 997 The Snow Stopped

Early in the morning, when Qin Chuchu opened her eyes, she felt that the room was dark.

"Hmm?" He looked up and looked outside.

It's not even dawn yet, why am I awake? I'm not sleepy anymore.

He lay down with a bang, covered himself with the quilt and continued to sleep.

He just mumbled for a long time but didn't feel sleepy, so he sat up with a frown.

I looked at the dark yard and didn't know why I was so energetic today. I didn't even want to sleep.

I got up from the bed and started to wash up. Before I could comb my hair, April walked in.

"April, why are you up so early?"

Qin Chuchu sat in front of the dressing table, combing her hair as she spoke.

It turns out that not only did I get up early, but April also got up early.

"Second Princess, it's already past the hour of Mao, it's getting late."

As April spoke, she pointed to the dark yard. At this time every day, the sun was already high in the sky.

"It's already past the hour of Mao? How is this possible?"

Qin Chuchu clutched the comb in her hand, looked at April in disbelief, and then looked at the dark sky outside.

It was still dark outside, how could it be past the hour of Mao?

Seeing what the second princess was thinking, April pointed outside and smiled.

"Second Princess, it's so dark outside because it's snowing."

"Huh? It's snowing!" Qin Chuchu's eyes lit up.

He threw away the comb and ran out. As soon as he reached the yard, he stretched his neck to look outside, and the more he looked, the wider his mouth widened.

“It’s really snowing!”

The skylight had long been covered by thick snow, no wonder the yard looked so dark.

I was about to run out to see what the first snow looked like, but was stopped by April.

"Second Princess, you'd better finish packing before leaving!"

As April spoke, she pointed at the second princess's shoulder-length hair and thin pajamas.

I can't bear to go out in this outfit. It's so cold outside.

Following April's gaze, Qin Chuchu looked at her clothes and realized that she was wearing so little.

"good."

She ran back happily, tied up her hair, put on her coat and the down jacket that reached her feet.

His head was wrapped in a scarf like a rice dumpling, leaving only his two eyes exposed.

"Is this okay?"

She looked at April with a smile, and ran out after she finished speaking. The moment she pushed open the door, what she saw was a sea of ​​white. The heavy snow was still falling like goose feathers, and she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.

I rushed straight into the snow and started having fun. I didn't know when the snow started falling, but now it's already above my feet.

Seeing the second princess running around in the snow, April hurriedly called her.

"Second Princess, the snow is too heavy. How about we go back?"

It’s snowing so hard that you can’t even see anyone. Don’t let the second princess get frozen.

"It's okay, play for a while longer!"

Qin Chuchu was so excited that she started playing happily in the snow.

Sometimes he stepped out a little duck shape, sometimes a heart shape, and he almost stepped on all the snow nearby.

It wasn't that cold when it snowed, but after all this busy work, I was sweating all over.

Just as he was about to push the hat off his head, a big hand held it down.

"Don't move, or you'll catch a cold!"

The man's slender fingers grasped Qin Chuchu's chubby hand.

When I came back just now, I saw someone running around in the snow. I knew it was Chuchu without any guessing.

When I got closer, I saw that it was true. I saw that she was about to take off her hat. How could that be possible?

"Your Majesty, I'm not cold, I'm sweating!"

Qin Chuchu wanted to push the hat down, but the man grabbed it again.

"That's why you can't pick them!"

"If you don't pick it, then don't pick it!"

Qin Chuchu withdrew her hand and was about to run to the front to play for a while, but was pulled back by the man.

"Okay, we can't stay outside for too long, let's go back!"

"Your Majesty, I just came out and I haven't had enough fun yet!"

Qin Chuchu said this while trying to break free from the man's arms. She was having a lot of fun and it was much more interesting than staying at home.

"Who are you kidding? Go home now!"

The man pointed at the thick layer of snow on her head with dissatisfaction. She was almost looking like a snowman. How could so much snow fall on her head just after coming out?

Qin Chuchu wanted to argue, but unfortunately she couldn't break free from the man and was pulled back.

Thinking that she could go out and play while the man was in the greenhouse, she behaved herself.

But I didn’t expect that the snow would not only get heavier, but also be accompanied by a cold wind, so cold that it was smoking.

The pit on the base side could not be dug any further, and the snow was so heavy that he couldn't open his eyes, so he couldn't proceed.

So, the Far North pressed the pause button. Except for the pharmaceutical factories and greenhouses where people were still working, everyone started to hibernate at home.

Now every family has prepared firewood, every household has closed windows and doors, lives in a warm house, and eats hot meals, which makes people feel so satisfied.

In the past, even if the weather was colder than this, we would still need to chop firewood, and no matter how we burned it, the house would still be freezing cold.

The most important thing is to live frugally and save food, for fear that the food rations will not last long.

How can it be compared with the life we ​​have now? Not only can we live in a warm house, but we can also eat delicious meals. Not only can we eat enough, but we can also eat well. This is simply a life like a god.

The people were all extremely satisfied and happy.

The people of Qingzhou Prefecture were also happy. They felt fortunate that they had followed the prince and his men to the mountains to chop firewood.

Otherwise, we would have to go into the mountains in this cold weather, which would be hard work, and the firewood we cut would be difficult to burn.

But people in other places don't live so well.

We still live a frugal life as before. Although the snow is not as heavy as here, it still reaches our feet.

We still had to go to the mountains to chop firewood in the wind and snow, even if we had some stored at home.

It’s better to follow everyone up the mountain to chop firewood and save it for when the weather gets cold.

Although this heavy snow has brought a lot of inconvenience to everyone's life, I am still very happy.

Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest. It has not snowed for three years. For them, this heavy snow means a good harvest next year.

It’s just that this snow lasted for a long time, and I originally thought it would be over in two or three days.

As a result, this high-pressure state lasted for half a month before it stopped.

As soon as the snow stopped, the temperature dropped sharply. The biting cold wind blew on people's faces, making them unable to close their mouths.

Qin Chuchu felt this most deeply. She thought she could go out and play in the snow after the snow stopped.

When she came out fully armed, she found that the weather had become much colder.

Even though my head was wrapped tightly with a scarf, the air I breathed in was still bone-chillingly cold.

But it didn't stop her determination to play in the snow. She took advantage of the children's rest on Saturday and Sunday to go to the square with everyone to play in the snow.

At first, the children took her status as a princess into consideration and were humble in everything they did.

But as they played, they no longer cared about that. Even the princess was throwing snowballs at them, so they didn't have to worry about it anymore.

For a moment, snowballs were flying all over the square, hitting people's heads and butts.

Even though she couldn't open her eyes due to being beaten, Qin Chuchu was still extremely excited and extremely happy.
