Chapter 258: Sweeping Snow (9th update)

Grandma Chen stopped talking, and seeing that she didn't say anything, Su Runrun and Xiao Chengjin didn't dare to say anything either.

Not long after, Xiao Chengjin left first.

After all, he didn't marry Su Ruanruan. After something like this happened, Grandma Chen should want to have a private conversation with Su Ruanruan, so it would be better for him to leave first.

After leaving the Su family's gate, Xiao Chengjin first looked around at the situation outside.

Su Jiefang is no longer here.

"Ruanruan, I'm leaving. You stay with Grandma Chen." Xiao Chengjin turned around and said to Su Ruanruan.

"I know, go home now!"

Today is Laba Festival, and the whole family should spend the festival together.

It's fine that Xiao Aiguo and the others can't come back, but it would be really unreasonable for Xiao Chengjin to stay at home and not celebrate the festival with Xiao Dashan and Luo Yufeng.

After seeing Xiao Chengjin off, Su Runrun returned to the kitchen and sat next to Grandma Chen again.

Grandma Chen didn't say anything, and Su Ruanruan didn't say anything to disturb her.

She just wanted to sit aside and accompany Grandma Chen.

It was not until the Laba porridge in the pot was cooked that Grandma Chen finally calmed down.

The grandparents and grandchildren sat face to face drinking Laba porridge, and no one spoke.

From this time on, until the next few days, Grandma Chen acted as if nothing had happened and did what she was supposed to do every day.

But looking at Grandma Chen like this, Su Runrun became even more worried.

Time passed quickly and it was the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month. Early in the morning, snowflakes began to fall from the sky again.

The falling snowflakes make people feel bitingly cold.

When the snow fell until noon, Su Runruan brought a ladder and climbed onto the roof to sweep the snow.

Xiao Chengjin didn't let Su Ruanruan go up. He just asked Su Ruanruan to hold the ladder for him from below while he climbed up with a shovel.

The houses in the production brigade basically had thatched roofs, and the thatch had to be replaced once a year, otherwise they would leak easily when it rained.

This kind of roof cannot bear weight, so when it snows a little heavier, we have to climb onto the roof to sweep the snow, even in the middle of the night.

Otherwise, the roof might collapse while you are sleeping in the middle of the night.

Even the laziest guy in the production team would not dare to be careless about this matter, as it could cost lives.

Xiao Chengjin climbed to the top in a few steps, and gently scraped the snow on the roof with a shovel.

After digging as far as the shovel could reach, Xiao Chengjin planned to come down and move the ladder to another place.

Just as he turned his head, Xiao Chengjin stopped.

He was standing high and could see far. On the road outside, a car was slowly driving towards this side.

Not an ox cart, not a mule cart, not even a tractor.

It was a small black car that ran steadily and quickly.

The car quickly drove to the door and stopped.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

When Xiao Chengjin saw the person opening the door and getting out of the car, his pupils instantly constricted.

It’s Su Jiefang!

Xiao Chengjin hurried down the ladder and said to Su Ruanruan, "Ruanruan, that man is here again!"

Almost at the moment she heard these words, Su Ruanruan understood who Xiao Chengjin was talking about.

Because Grandma Chen refused to admit it, Su Runrun and Xiao Chengjin simply used the three words "that person" to replace Su Jiefang.

Although the two did not say it out loud, they both understood what the other meant.

It's been several days, why is Su Jiefang here again? Shouldn't he have returned to the capital?

No matter what Su Runrun and Xiao Chengjin thought, someone still knocked on the door.
