Chapter 96: Winter in the Snow



Don’t let the fire go out.”

Qian Jinyu was a little worried about her.

"Mom, be careful!"

Although Shitang's mother has never lived here, shoveling snow is no problem for her.

"Hurry into the house and close all the doors."

Just as Qian Jinyu was about to enter the house, she heard Mrs. Wang's surprised voice coming from outside.

"Oh, you're back soon, that's great!"

The loud voices of Shi Tang and Political Commissar Wang.

"We saw it was snowing that night, and it was snowing quite heavily.

We quickly asked the driver to drive us back overnight.

It's early in the morning when I get back, so I'll take a nap after shoveling the snow."

"Fortunately, we came back in time, otherwise it would be troublesome for you to shovel the snow."

Shi Tang shouted to the courtyard:

"Wife, Mom, I'm back."

Shitang's mother didn't bother to go up to the roof to shovel snow, and immediately ran to the front door to open it.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Shi Tang wearing a big black scarf and looking very handsome.

"You came back just in time, I was just about to go up to the roof to shovel snow!

Oh, the way you wear this scarf makes my son look extra handsome.

My daughter-in-law is the one who knows how to match colors.”

Shi Tang smiled, and Qian Jinyu also smiled. It was just a black scarf, how did she match the colors?

But I'm still happy to be praised.

"You're back now. I'll make you a bowl of noodles. After you finish eating, you can shovel the snow."

Shi Tang took a shovel and dug a path from the gate to the front door of his house, and then to the yard.

"Don't worry, I'll build a path here first, and then I'll go shovel on the roof.

Oh, and shovel a path to the toilet."

Qian Jinyu stood at the door and smiled, watching him shovel out a path from the front door to his kitchen door in just a few strokes.

Then he shoveled another path from the kitchen to the toilet.

"Almost done, I'm going to the roof, you guys hurry into the house.

Don’t let the snow fall and hit you.”

After hearing what he said, Qian Jinyu and Shitang's mother went into the house immediately.

After a while, I heard the sound of snow falling from the roof.

Outside the gate, the happiest people were the children Tiedan, Maizi, Doubao and others.

They started playing snowball fights while yelling.

Qian Jinyu stood at the gate and watched them playing snowballs, which was quite fun.

I mentally want to join them, but my body won't allow it.

I can only watch from the side.

Tiedan ran to Qian Jinyu, wearing a pair of gloves and said excitedly:

Aunt Qian, it’s snowing now, we can use the basket to catch sparrows.

Get a willow basket, prop it up with sticks and tie it with ropes.

We stay far away and sprinkle some millet or something under the basket, and the sparrows will come down to eat it.

If we pull the rope again and remove the branches supporting the basket, the side basket will be able to catch many sparrows."

Qian Jinyu's eyes lit up when they heard what they said.

Is it really a childhood if you haven’t ever caught sparrows?

"It just so happens that my aunt has that kind of frame, let's try it."

Shitang. Watching him playing with the children, I couldn't help but smile. Smoke was rising from every household.

Looking at the white snow, it showed signs of melting after the sun came out.

Qian Jinyu and Tiedan hid behind the gate, and the sparrow actually flew under the wicker frame to eat the millet.

Qian Jinyu pulled the rope and removed the branches supporting the wicker frame.

The basket suddenly fell down and caught seven or eight sparrows.

"Wow, that's great. We caught a lot of sparrows this time."

Qian Jinyu looked at the frame for catching sparrows and felt a little worried.

He burst out laughing.

"Tiedan, how do we get this sparrow out?"

Tiedan turned and looked at Qian Jinyu.

I thought, isn’t this your business, Aunt Qian?

But since he was asked, his little brain started to work.

"Just reach in and grab it?"

Qian Jinyu told the truth, she was afraid of sparrows peck at her hands.

"Will sparrows bite your hands?"

Tiedan: "Probably, right?"

Qian Jinyu: "Why don't you go and catch him?"

Tiedan looked at her in surprise and finally nodded firmly.

"Okay, I'll go. I'm a little man. I'm not afraid of being bitten by sparrows."

At this time, Zhang Bilian came over.

"What are you doing?"

Qian Jinyu and Tiedan looked at each other and then looked at Zhang Bilian together.

"We have a lot of sparrows in our basket. Do you want to eat some roasted sparrows?

It’s so delicious and fragrant.

If you want to eat, just go get it yourself."

Zhang Bilian's eyes lit up.

“Roasted sparrow?

You know what, I’ve never eaten it.

In that basket?

Shall I go get it then?"

Qian Jinyu and Tiedan nodded in unison and looked at her, motioning her to get it.

Then Qian Jinyu and Tiedan turned their heads and looked at each other, and both smiled.

Zhang Bilian didn't notice anything was wrong at all, and actually reached into the frame to take the sparrow.

Then he let out a howl.

"Ahhh, that sparrow bit me!"

Qian Jinyu and Xiao Tiedan looked at each other and smiled.

“Sure enough, that sparrow can bite!

So how can we get those sparrows out?"

Shi Tang was standing not far away watching them. He couldn't help but walked over, took out a net bag and said:.

"Use the net!"

Qian Jinyu and Xiao Tiedan opened their mouths in surprise, and their surprised expressions were synchronized.

Shitang was so amused by it.

Zhang Bilian only took out a sparrow.

"I can't take it anymore. The sparrow has pecked at the back of my hand several times.

This thing doesn't really hurt, but it's that fear of the unknown that makes people scared.
