Chapter 263: Difficult Snow Sweeping (1/2)



After Xia Shige's explanation, Lin Jingjing finally understood the consequences of what happened before.

She was a little stunned and said, "There is such a person in our building? Why haven't I heard of him before?"

At this time, Sun Yuegui also came over and looked at the food in the lunch box. She was also a little surprised. She quickly grabbed Lin Jingjing and asked, "Child, your family made these. Can't the neighbors smell it?"

Hearing this, Lin Jingjing explained to them, "The gaps in the doors and windows of my kitchen are sealed with tape, and there's an air purifier inside. I don't usually turn on the range hood, so the smell can't get out. You can give it a try!"

Later, with the help of Lin Jingjing, the Xia family also sealed the doors and windows of the kitchen with tape.

The family had just finished cleaning the kitchen and sent Lin Jingjing off when Xia Guocheng and Xia Huiyin returned.

The property management center organized people to sweep snow in the community today, and also to clear the accumulated snow on the roofs of each building. Xia Guocheng and Xia Huiyin also went to help.

Because the snow was quite deep, the trouser legs of both men were wet by the black snow water, leaving black marks.

Xia Shige and Sun Yuegui quickly brought soft pajamas for the two and asked them to change their coats.

Xia Shige saw a pair of black leather gloves in Xia Huiyin's changed clothes and asked in confusion, "Mom, are these gloves yours? Why don't I remember them?"

Xia Huiyin shook her head and replied, "It belonged to Officer Zhou Hong. He saw that I was sweeping the snow without wearing gloves, so he lent it to me temporarily. I accidentally took it home, so I have to return it to him next time I see him."

Xia Guocheng, who was standing by, also said with a smile: "Officer Zhou Hong is really a kind person! Not only did he lend us gloves, he also helped us sweep the snow! He climbed the roofs of three buildings by himself and did more work than two people combined!"

Xia Shige was a little surprised when she heard this. She thought, it seems that the cases of the Zhao and He families have been dealt with, and the city is indeed much more peaceful. Otherwise, Officer Zhou would not be so idle now and even have time to help sweep the snow...

The snow started falling outside the window again, and black snowflakes fell like ink pouring down from the sky.

Each snowflake is like a drop of ink. They spin and dance in the air, and finally fall gently to the ground, piling up into a thick layer of black snow.

Although the temperature outside was slowly dropping, the Xia family's house was still warm and pleasant.

Several oil heaters in the room are working continuously, emitting comfortable warmth.

The Xia family sat around the dining table, which was filled with fresh water spinach, braised fish and cured pork ribs sent by Lin Jingjing, as well as sweet eight-treasure porridge and delicate mashed potatoes. The whole family had a delicious meal.

Early the next morning, the property management center and emergency office of Xindu Community sent a message to the group, asking everyone to go to the material supply point to collect cold-resistant supplies.

“Property Center: @All members and employees, the first batch of cold-weather supplies distributed by the state has arrived. Please bring your ID cards to the square in front of the supply point to receive the cold-weather supplies.”

"7-901 Xiao Li Loves Adventure: Finally distributed something! I've been freezing these past few days!"

“4-1209正㱗摸鱼: Hey, do I have to go get it myself? But I don’t want to go out at all. I don’t want to leave the quilt. It’s too cold outside.”

"7-901 Xiao Li Loves Adventure: @Property Center, it's already more than 10 degrees below zero, when will the heating start? If it continues like this, no one will be able to bear it!"

“…”

After Xia Shige finished reading the group chat history, he quickly ran to the living room and told his family the news.

Xia Guocheng and Xia Huiyin went out early in the morning to arrange the distribution of cold-resistant supplies. Now only Xia Shige, Sun Yuegui, grandmother and Grandma Liu are at home.

After listening to Xia Shige's words, grandma thought for a moment and said, "Our family doesn't lack these cold-weather supplies, do we still need to go get them?"
