Before the Chinese New Year, Beijing experienced three consecutive days of heavy snow. The snow on the roads was very thick and many places were affected.
"Grandpa, is it raining heavily at home?"
Grandpa Fu smiled and said, "The snow is up to the ankles, much less than in previous years."
"That's good. It's raining heavily in Beijing. I heard this morning that many houses in the suburbs of Beijing were crushed."
"Hey, is the compound okay?" he said in an anxious tone.
Fu Xiao quickly said: "The compound is fine. I haven't left the house these days."
"Just don't go out. It's cold outside. Stay at home. I don't know how your second uncle is doing."
"I have contacted my third brother, and everything is fine in the northwest."
"That's good,"
"......"
After confirming that Dashan Village was safe, Fu Xiao felt relieved. He went downstairs to the living room and came to Grandpa Mu who was sitting by the stove.
"Is everything alright at home?"
"It's okay," she looked out the window, "I don't know when Dad and Shen Xingzhou will be back."
Mr. Mu waved his hand casually, "Well, they are just helping to deliver some things, but I guess your father will stay there to help."
Because of the snow, the children who were running around in the compound gathered at home.
The whole compound was very quiet.
Mr. Mu looked out of the courtyard through the closed window, "The sun is out..."
After the snow, the sky cleared up and everything was covered with a layer of white velvet blanket. The winter sun was pale and sprinkled on the snow, emitting a dazzling light.
But at this time, the temperature is also the lowest.
Fu Xiao sat in front of the stove with his hands in his pockets, looked up at the clock, and said, "Grandpa, let's have some soup at noon."
"Well, drink the soup, drink the soup to warm you up."
The door of the Mu family was pushed open with difficulty from the outside, and Shen Xingzhou, who was wearing thick clothes, walked in.
He walked to the door and waved at her through the window.
"Why doesn't this stupid boy come in?"
Fu Xiao saw him stamping his feet and said with a smile, "He's probably afraid of bringing the snow on his feet into the house."
"Grandpa, please sit down. I'll take him to the kitchen to roast some..."
It's a good opportunity for him to help with the cooking.
She opened the door and walked in, then closed the door and turned around.
"Why did you come out?"
Fu Xiao pulled his sleeve and walked towards the kitchen. "It's time for dinner. I want to make chicken soup. You come and light the fire."
Walking into the kitchen, Shen Xingzhou sat directly in front of the stove and took off the Lei Feng hat and gloves on his head.
Fu Xiao put the chicken and some ingredients into the pot, added water and looked at him, "Light the fire."
"Um,"
After the fire was lit, he pulled a small stool over and said, "Come, sit here."
Fu Xiao sat with him in front of the stove, roasting fire and chatting.
"Where's Dad..."
Shen Xingzhou smiled and said, “I went to Zhai’s house.”
"Is the situation over there serious?"
He frowned slightly: "The problem in the suburbs of Beijing is not very serious, but there are several villages in the county below where many houses have collapsed. Uncle Mu went to the Zhai family probably because of this matter."
Fu Xiaoxiu frowned slightly and lowered her eyes in thought.
Shen Xingzhou took her hand and put it in his palm to warm it, and said softly: "Some troops have already gone there, and Uncle Mu doesn't need to go to the scene himself, so you don't have to worry."
She smiled faintly: "I'm not worried about that, I'm thinking about other things."
She was about to continue speaking when Shen Xingzhou interrupted her with a smile, "I know what you want to say,"
He took her hand and placed it on his lips and kissed it. "I know you have a kind heart. I will see to it."
"Well," she curled her lips and looked up at him, "This is also a good thing for you."
Shen Xingzhou nodded, "I understand what you mean,"
He wants to go into business in the future. Doing more good deeds to gain a good reputation will be extremely beneficial to his future development.
"Wait until Uncle Mu comes back and see how they discuss it."
As they were talking, Mu Lianshen came back. Seeing the smoke rising from his house, he went straight to the kitchen.
After learning about Shen Xingzhou's plan, he smiled faintly, "It's the same idea as Xiaojiu."
"Why don't you go to Zhai's house and discuss this with him?"
Fu Xiao said: "You go first, the chicken soup needs to be stewed for an hour."
“Well,” before walking out of the kitchen, Shen Xingzhou put on his Lei Feng hat again.
Mu Lianshen sat in the place where he had just sat, added a piece of firewood to the stove, and looked at Fu Xiao, "This kid wants to do business in the future. Has he discussed this with you?"
"He told me..."
"Just talking? Didn't I discuss it with you?"
Fu Xiao curled his lips: "Dad, isn't business good?"
Mu Lianshen chuckled: "It's not bad."
What he cared about was whether Shen Xingzhou had discussed with Fu Xiao before making the decision.
She nodded. "We discussed it. No matter whether it was a big thing or a small thing, he asked me or reported it to me beforehand."
Only then did he nod with satisfaction.
Fu Xiao suddenly remembered what he said last time, "Dad, when does that start?"
"It's still early, after the first month of the lunar year,"
"Where to go then?"
Mu Lianshen smiled and shook his head. "The route was not planned by my father, but I think it should be traveling around, mainly to see the outside world."
"An An, there will be no guards following you. If you encounter any danger, it will all be up to you."
She smiled and said, "Dad, don't you know how good I am..."
Mu Lianshen raised his hand and touched her hair. "Of course I know how powerful you are."
"Let A Yu go with you then,"
"Dad, thank you so much," Fu Xiao knew what Mu Lianshen meant.
"Silly boy, what are you thanking me for?"
