A Small Farmer Girl 's Story of Making a Fortune by Farming

44

　　A few days after moving into the new house, the winter solstice arrived.

　　The days began to get shorter, the nights became longer, the temperature dropped suddenly, and Shen Yao put on a coat.

　　Fortunately, this winter I no longer have to endure the wind blowing through the cracks in the wall. The new house is spacious and bright, and even the floor is flat.

　　During the day, Shen Yao helped Mrs. Wu take care of her two younger brothers. At night, she slept in her own little room and chatted with her cousin.

　　Shen Hongmei looked at the tall beams and felt something was unreal.

　　The old house they lived in before was gray inside, and the beams were so low that they seemed to be within reach. If you lay on the bed and looked up, you would feel depressed. Especially during the rainy season, it felt like something was growing moldy in the house.

　　Her father said that the old house was built by her great grandfather. She also thought that she would live in that old house until she got married and moved to another house that would get moldy when it rained.

　　She never thought that one day she would be able to live in such a spacious house. She knew that her family's situation was getting better.

　　"Yaoyao, tell me, will our family get better and better?"

　　Shen Yao muttered "hmm" softly, and then there was no response at all.

　　Shen Hongmei turned her head and found that the person next to her had fallen asleep with a smile on his face.

　　The first snow of this winter fell after Laba Festival.

　　The snow came quickly, and in less than an hour, it dyed the sky and the earth white.

　　The world was completely silent. The falling snowflakes were as big as goose feathers. Shen Yao could even hear the sound of them falling to the ground.

　　Mrs. Wu looked out the window for a long time before she regained her composure and felt relieved: "Fortunately, it snowed. If it didn't snow this winter, there would definitely be a locust plague next year. Fortunately, fortunately, God bless you!"

　　Shen Yao also looked out the window, worried about her parents who were going to sell lunch boxes. The snow came suddenly without any signs, and it was snowing so heavily. Her parents were still dragging so many things, and they didn't know if the road was easy to walk on.

　　Mrs. Wu saw through her granddaughter's thoughts and comforted her, "Don't worry, your uncle and third uncle have gone to pick her up with raincoats. The snow won't get thick anytime soon, so it won't cause any trouble."

　　"Hmm~" Shen Yao responded softly, but he was still worried.

　　Mrs. Wu ignored her and continued to sew the soles of her shoes. Changsheng, on the other hand, climbed down from the kang, grabbed Shen Yao's hand, and ran out of the house: "Second sister, go out and play... play!"

　　"What are you playing at? You're freezing to death!" Mrs. Wu glared at him unhappily.

　　The two grandchildren have started to walk and run around, and they are also very naughty. They find everything new and want to touch it. They are not like Yaoyao at all, who was very gentle when he was young.

　　They are all from the Shen family, so why are there such big differences between them?

　　Speaking of her two little grandsons, Mrs. Wu still has a worry in her heart. To be more precise, it is the worry of the entire Shen family.
