Chapter 172 It’s Snowing



"Hiss! It's so cold!"

Tian An just stretched out her hand from under the quilt and then retracted it. She felt that the weather seemed to have become much colder.

“Boom boom boom… boom boom boom…”

As soon as the knock on the door sounded, Xiaokang's excited voice came from outside the door: "Sister, sister, get up quickly! It's snowing heavily outside!

Brother Xiaofeng and Brother Dashu helped Xiaojun and Dajun build a big snowman! Sister, let’s go out and build a snowman too!

It's snowing! No wonder she's so cold. When Tian An heard Xiaokang say they wanted to build a snowman, she shuddered. "Oh, she's terrified of the cold and doesn't want to play in the snow at all."

"Xiaokang, the snow is too cold. How about we not play in the snow?" Tian An discussed with him.

"But, but the snowman that Xiaojun and Dajun built is really beautiful!"

Xiaokang was disappointed that he couldn't build a snowman. But when he thought of his sister saying she was cold, he couldn't bear it: "Forget it! Actually, I don't really want to build a snowman. I still have to read! Then sister, you can sleep a little longer!"

After Xiaokang finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, which was the sound of Xiaokang's footsteps running.

Tian An sighed, resigned himself to his fate and sat up. He reached for the clothes on the bedside table and began to put them on. As he dressed, he muttered, "Children can't be without a childhood. They need a balance of work and rest. They can't become bookworms. I'll just accompany him for a while, yeah! Just for a while."

While Tian An was dawdling to tidy himself up, Xiaokang had already finished writing two long pieces of calligraphy.

Tian An walked closer to examine his handwriting. Although his brushwork was still immature, the characters were all the same size and neatly arranged, showing the intensity of his practice.

Tian An patted his head and said, "Since you study hard, let's go! Let's go build a snowman."

Xiaokang's eyes lit up, and just as he was about to stand up, he sat back down: "Sister is afraid of the cold, let's forget it!"

Tian An said: "Let's just play for a while, sister is not afraid."

Xiaokang happily pulled Tian An and was about to run out, but stopped just as he reached the door. He ran back to tidy up his desk before pulling Tian An out again.

After leaving the house, Tian An tightened her coat again. She discovered that this body was particularly afraid of the cold, a fear that was ingrained in its bones. She guessed it was probably a lingering memory from her previous incarnation's difficult winters.

"Sister, come quickly!"

Hearing Xiaokang shouting in the yard, Tian An put on the gloves hanging around his neck before walking out of the corridor.

"Xiaokang, what kind of snowman do you want to build?" Tian An asked.

Xiaokang thought for a moment and said, "I want to have a sister."

Tian An refused: "No, what if you make me look ugly?"

Xiaokang retorted: "I haven't even piled it on yet! How do you know it's ugly? You said last time that you would know the result only after you had done it."

Tian An: "...You little brat learns really fast! You even know how to teach your sister a lesson!"

Xiaokang lowered his head to look at his feet: "I don't understand what my sister said."

"Hehe! Don't you understand?" Tian An grinned evilly, and while Xiaokang wasn't paying attention, he quickly made a snowball from the ground and dropped it at his feet with a "bang".

Xiaokang got furious and yelled, "Sister, you're cheating."

"Haha, this is called "All is fair in war". You haven't learned it yet, right?" Tian An said provocatively.

"Sister, look over there." Xiaokang pointed in a direction.

Tian An turned and looked in the direction he pointed, "Xiaokang, what are you looking at? There's nothing over there!"

However, what responded to her was a "bang" and a snowball exploded from her feet.

Tian An was stunned for a second, then came to his senses and realized: "Damn, I fell into a trap."

Across from her, Xiao Kang said even more provocatively than she had just now: "Sister, all is fair in war, how well have I learned it?"

"You little guy, you can learn and apply what you have learned! Not bad, not bad." Tian An praised while quickly making a few snowballs.

"Watch this."

In this way, Tian An and Xiaokang, who originally wanted to go out to build a snowman, now started to have a snowball fight with each other.

Xiaokang practiced martial arts with Zhao Yiming every day. It looked like simple, basic moves, but after a few months, it seemed like he was actually learning quite well.

Just like when the two of them are playing snowball fight now, their snowball throwing accuracy is really good, every time they throw, they hit the target exactly.

She sometimes missed, but that boy never missed, and all the snowballs he threw hit her.

It wasn't long before Tian An couldn't hold on any longer. Just as he was about to quit playing, he looked up and saw a snowball the size of a fist flying towards him.

Tian An had no way to avoid it. Just as he was about to accept the result of being hit in the face by the snowball, a fist suddenly stretched out in front of him and smashed the snowball into pieces with one punch.

"Xiaokang, what are you doing! How can you hit your sister with a snowball?" Zhao Yiming said sternly.

Xiaokang's eyes were red with grievance, and tears welled up in her big eyes: "I'm sorry, sister, I shouldn't have hit you with a snowball."

Tian An pulled Zhao Yiming's sleeve and said, "Don't blame him. We were having a snowball fight, and I'm not as good as him."

Zhao Yiming frowned and looked at Tian An: "I haven't talked about you yet! He is small, and you are small too, right? Don't you know that you have just recovered from a serious illness? Not only did you not stay in the room and recuperate, but you also ran out to play in the snow."

He took Tian An's hand and took off his soaked gloves: "Look at you, your gloves are wet. What if you get sick?"

Seeing that his sister couldn't even lift her head after being scolded by Zhao Yiming, Xiaokang didn't care about his own grievances and hurried over to defend her: "Brother Yiming, I asked my sister to come out to play, don't blame my sister, if you want to blame someone, blame me, you can punish me too."

Zhao Yiming looked at the siblings helplessly, opened his mouth, and finally said nothing. He silently took off his gloves and put them on Tian An, then pulled her aside. Then he walked back to Xiaokang.

"Don't you like playing snowball fights? Your sister said she's not as good as others, so I'm doing it for her."

Xiaokang was about to cry but couldn't: "Brother Yiming is so powerful, how could I possibly beat you?"

Seeing the two about to duel, Tian An excitedly fanned the flames: "How do you know you can't win if you haven't even fought before? Come on, Xiaokang, I believe in you."

Before Xiaokang could think about it, Zhao Yiming distanced himself from him and a snowball hit him at his feet.

Seeing that he couldn't dodge, Xiaokang could only fight back. When the fight started, Tian An realized that Xiaokang had just held back!

However, your elder brother is still your elder brother. Even if Xiaokang tried his best, he couldn't leave any trace on Zhao Yiming. Instead, he was exhausted and out of breath.

Zhao Yiming glanced at Xiaokang, who was lying on the snow, and said mercilessly, "From tomorrow on, you don't have to practice martial arts in the morning. As long as there's snow, I'll play snowball fights with you for an hour every day."

After saying this, he told his servants not to shovel the snow, but to just leave a path for people to pass through.

Tian An looked at Xiaokang, who looked completely hopeless, and shed tears of sympathy for him.

However, in the evening, when Tian An looked at the big bowl of old hen soup on the table, she felt that she should sympathize with herself first!
