If it weren't for Wang Guoqing's constant support, Lin Xue would have fallen countless times.
"Third brother, you carry your wife on your back, I'll push the bicycle!"
In the end, Old Man Wang couldn't bear to watch any longer and took the bicycle from Wang Guoqing, who then carried Lin Xue on his back, allowing them to walk a little faster.
Because the snow was so thick, the roads were very difficult to walk on. What should have been a half-hour walk took a full hour.
Bicycles were not allowed to be ridden along the way, but because they were carrying a lot of things, pushing bicycles was less strenuous than carrying baskets on their backs.
The three of them finally made it back to Qingliu Brigade.
Then I heard the brigade's loudspeaker broadcasting current events.
Since the village got that transistor radio, the villagers have been able to learn about national policies more and faster than before.
Especially during the hibernation period, the brigade would occasionally broadcast news or similar programs.
It also gave these illiterate people another way to understand the world.
"Old woman, I'm in a good mood today, so cook a couple more good dishes. Guoliang, go and call your second uncle over. I haven't been back for a long time, so let's get together!"
As soon as Old Wang returned home, he was like a victorious general returning from a battle, giving orders to his entire family.
On such a cold day, Lin Xue didn't want to do anything, so she simply dragged Wang Guoqing back to her own little home.
She just needs to wait for the food to be ready at the old house so she can go and eat.
Lin Xue's two sisters-in-law did not express any dissatisfaction with her slacking off.
You should know that for the past few months, the children of both families have been eating and using food from the third brother's family in town.
People don't even bother with them. If they were to argue with them over such a small task, they would be incredibly rude.
The old house was bustling with activity, but Wang Mancang and Wang Yating, the two children, were unwilling to return to their own home.
This gave Lin Xue and Wang Guoqing some time alone together.
"Honey, let me see if your feet are cold!"
Wang Guoqing boiled some water and brought it in.
After taking off Lin Xue's cotton-padded coat, he began to examine her fair little feet.
What started as a normal foot-washing session for his wife ended up taking place on the kang (a heated brick bed).
I won't go into the details of what happened next, which was quite shameless.
In short, this winter was very cold, but it was very warm in the hearts of the Wang family.
