Xue's daughter-in-law

Chapter 82

It would be fine if only Xue Song was domineering, but Xue Bai's transformation was so shocking that Ye Ya was flustered and frightened, so after returning from the town, she never went out again.After the cabbage and radishes were collected, she asked Xue Shulian to deliver dry firewood and two fresh vegetables to the two brothers, while she herself hid at home.When Xue Shu came back, she wanted to ask Xue Song if he had mentioned her, but after thinking about it, she didn't ask. How could he talk to Xue Shu with such a taciturn character?He, at best, told Xue Shu to listen to her...

I thought about it, but I didn't dare to go there, for fear of teasing him again, I couldn't mess around in the daytime, and I had no reason to stay.She began to look forward to Xue Song's return, but he didn't know what he was busy with. He just didn't come back, and the days passed quickly in such anticipation and disappointment day by day.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the clothes are wearing more and more. After two light snowfalls, it suddenly snowed heavily all night.Getting up early and pushing open the door, Ye Ya was shocked to find that the snow outside was almost at the same level as the threshold.

"Ashu, it's snowing!" She looked at the snow scene outside the door, and called Xue Shu in surprise, exhaling white gas.

No one in the room responded to her, knowing that he was still lying on the bed and refused to get up, Ye Ya rubbed his cold hands, went back to the room with a smile, stood still in front of the edge of the kang, stretched his hand in from the collar of his coat, and quickly Clutching his warm chest, "Get up! If you don't get up again, I will keep icing you!"

"Daughter-in-law..." Xue Shu shivered, held Ye Ya's hand and looked up at her: "I have nothing to do when I get up, and it's so cold outside, so sleep a little longer, daughter-in-law, you come up too, the bed is still It’s hot.” ​​In previous winters, he would go hunting in the mountains with his eldest brother, and he was only allowed to sleep in when he was sick or when his eldest brother went to town. Now that his eldest brother is not at home and he doesn’t have to go hunting, he just wants to stay in bed all the time.

Ye Ya couldn't pull out her hand, so she tickled him: "You have to get up if you have nothing to do. The sun is so high, don't you want to sleep all day? Get up and shovel the snow, or I will lose my shoes if I hold firewood wet."

Wife's shoes will get wet?That can't work, the wife said that she will give birth to a son for him in the future, so she can't catch cold.

Xue Shu immediately let go of Ye Ya's hand and sat up, put on his clothes and folded the quilt, and quickly stood on the ground, picked up Ye Ya and placed him on the warm bed: "I'm going to shovel the snow, daughter-in-law, you wait here Come on, it's cold outside." After finishing speaking, he was about to go out.

"Wait a minute!" Ye Ya grabbed him, pulled down his neck and gave him a rewarding kiss on the face. No matter how lazy this man wants to be, he will be very sensible as long as he is related to her.

Touched by soft lips, Xue Shu's eyes brightened, he kissed her back, and went out refreshed.

Soon there was a rhythmic sound of snow shoveling outside.

Ye Ya naturally wouldn't stay in the house, she stood at the north gate with her face in her hands, watching Xue Shu busy.

The mountains in the distance are white, the walls are white, there is a thick layer of snow on the red branches in the bare mountains, and the chicken coop is covered with white snow. In the vast expanse of whiteness, Xue Shu is wearing a dark coarse winter coat, Just as he was waving the shovel in his hand, the dirty snow with a little bit of brown soil was lifted up and fell into the white snow on both sides, exposing the frozen path under his feet.

There was still snow of uneven thickness on the road, Ye Ya turned around, picked up the broom placed against the pot, and followed Xue Shu to sweep the snow.

There was a rustling sound behind him, Xue Shu turned his head and saw her bending over to sweep the snow, he hurriedly came over to persuade her: "My wife doesn't need you, you go back to the house and stay!"

The vast white snow near and far made his phoenix eyes clear and bright. Ye Ya got up and pushed him: "Go and do your work, I'm not that expensive. Hurry up and shovel, don't let me catch up with you. I'm done with the backyard, why don't I catch up with you?" There is a front yard to clean up, and then you will have to do it alone, and I have to boil water for cooking."

In the snow, her black eyebrows and black eyes made her skin fair and charming, but her cheeks were flushed on both sides, and her nose was also flushed. She was cute and good-looking.Xue Shu liked it in his heart, and working with his wife made him feel very warm and satisfied. He praised "the daughter-in-law is so beautiful", and then went on to get busy.

The two cleared three paths in the backyard, leading to the firewood shed, pigsty and chicken coop respectively.After finishing the work, my hands and feet were hot, and there were even thin beads of sweat on the tip of my nose.Ye Ya asked Xue Shu to shovel snow in the front yard, and she began to prepare breakfast.

A layer of ice had formed in the water tank, and the leaf buds were smashed open with a gourd ladle, and when the water was scooped again, broken ice stubbles floated inside.

"I don't know if the Beihe River is frozen. If it does, I'll have to fetch water from the well at Nantou in the future." Ye Ya said to herself.There was a water well in the village, and because there were too many people going to fetch water every morning, Xue Shu simply went to Beihe to fetch water, since it was not too far away anyway, so he didn't have to stand there and wait.

In the end, she squatted down in front of the stove and prepared to light the fire when Huzi rushed in, "Second Brother, Second Brother, the North River is frozen. After dinner, you can go ice skating with me!" The boy who was almost eight years old , wearing a thick padded jacket and a warm hat on his head, round like a snowman, dangling around Xue Shu, leaving messy footprints.

"That can't be done. I think the ice hasn't frozen solid yet. Let's go in two days!" Chun Xing quickly followed her in. The red jacket made her look like a plum blossom in the snow, bright and beautiful. eye-catching.After she finished speaking, she called out to the second sister-in-law from a distance towards the kitchen, and then took Hu Zi's hand and walked back: "Okay, second brother is still busy, we should go home for dinner. I will accompany you to the north to watch the river in the early morning, and I will freeze to death!"

"I didn't ask you to come with me!" After the man left, Huzi's loud complaints were clearly audible.

Ye Ya shook her head, sure enough children love to play, and they still have such a good interest in such a cold day.Just as he was thinking, Xue Shu suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of Beihe expectantly. Combined with Huzi's words, it was easy to guess what he was thinking.

Ye Ya was also a little itchy in her heart. There was no river in her house. When she was in the Sun Mansion, she heard a little girl talk about the interesting stories of ice skating in winter, such as spinning a spinning top, digging holes to catch fish, and so on.Of course, she is an adult, so she won't play with those children's things, but if she can walk on the ice, it should be quite novel, right?
Thinking of this, she smiled and said to Xue Shu: "Ah Shu, after dinner, let's go to Beihe to have a look, but you have to obey me, don't run around on the river!" , It's frozen solid, just play by the river for a while, if not, then come back.

"Okay!" Xue Shu was overjoyed, and immediately agreed happily, the daughter-in-law is really kind, but the elder brother didn't let him play on the ice.

With motivation, they work extra hard, sweeping snow, eating, feeding pigs and washing pots, both of them are very excited.

After all, they were going to play, so Ye Ya closed the front door and prepared to set off with Xue Shu through the back door.

"Daughter-in-law, shall I carry you?" Seeing the thick snow on the road from the door to the east, Xue Shu bent down and turned to Ye Ya.

Ye Ya said "hmm", and lay on Xue Shu's back, blushing a little: "Then quickly put me down on the road, it's not good to be seen by others." Someone pampered her, and she felt that she was getting worse and worse. The lazier she is, the more delicate she becomes. It's not like she hasn't walked in the snow before, but this feeling of being coaxed by others is so good, she likes it.

Xue Shu stood up straight, hugged Ye Ya's thigh and lifted it up, "Daughter-in-law, you seem to be getting fat."

Ye Ya wrapped his arms around his neck and bit his ear angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, it's because the cotton pants are too thick."

"Oh, yes, it's still as thin as before after taking off the trousers." Xue Shu thought of the smooth thighs he touched last night, his mind was shaken, and he secretly pinched the legs under the palm of his hand.

Even through the trousers, the slight itchiness still made Ye Ya aware of his little thoughts, she kicked her legs and scolded him: "If you touch me any more, I won't let you go!"

Xue Shu smiled proudly: "If you don't touch it, don't touch it, and then touch it after you take off your clothes at night!"

Ye Ya blushed immediately, and was about to speak, when she suddenly realized that Xue Shu had already reached the road, and was struggling to get down, "Let go of me, be careful not to be seen!"

Xue Shu turned around with her back on his back, "There is no one behind! The road here is full of snow, daughter-in-law, please stay still, I will carry you on my back, it is not heavy at all." After speaking, as if to prove his words, he He even strode up.

"Ah!" Ye Ya let out a low cry in shock, and quickly hugged Xue Shu's neck tightly, "Don't, don't run, let me go, come down, you..." Because of the jolting of her body, her words fluctuated up and down Yes, begging and begging, I don’t know if it’s the strange feeling of bumping up and down, or I think Xue Shu is stupid for running like this, she suddenly wanted to laugh, “A Shu!”

"Don't let it go, it's so fun, I'll let you down when I meet someone! Ah, daughter-in-law, hold on tight, I'm going downhill!"

The body suddenly lowered, but it was Xue Shu who ran down the slope with big strides.

Ye Ya closed her eyes nervously, listening to his hurried footsteps on the snow, listening to the wind passing by her ears, and when Xue Shu stopped firmly, she heard his panting after running.He carried her so firmly on his back, and he treated her so carefully, she was not afraid of falling, even if she fell, she was not afraid of the thick snow on the ground.

Opening her eyes, she looked around at the vast expanse of white snow. Apart from them, there was no one else. She smiled and lay on Xue Shu's broad shoulders, and never said anything to let him let her down. Since he likes this, She just followed him, because she liked it too...

The two people who were so happy naturally didn't know that Xue Song and Xue Bai turned around at the other end of the path as soon as their front feet went downhill.

The two brothers reached the door of the house, pushed the door, but the door was closed, and called for someone, but no one answered.

Xue Bai coughed, "Elder Brother, Second Brother, they haven't woken up yet, have they?"

Xue Song gave him a cold look, "Didn't get up, did you sweep the snow at the door?" He didn't believe that Xue Bai couldn't see the ground under his feet, and he didn't know what he was thinking all day long. "Here, I'll go in and have a look." He handed the bundle in his hand to Xue Bai, and climbed over the wall to enter from one side.

Entering the house, the quilts are neatly folded, the front door and the south door of the kitchen are all plugged in, but the back doors are all ajar. Looking at the row of footprints outside, Xue Bo raised his foot in the snow beside him. He stepped on it, compared the depth of the footprints, and sighed: "The second brother must have carried the second sister-in-law to Beihe to play." With her on his back, Xue Bai imagined that kind of scene, and he was very envious of Xue Shu. Do stupid people have stupid blessings?

"You go and tidy up the east room, and I'll go find them." Xue Song's face was extremely ugly, and he strode away after leaving this sentence.

Looking at his stern and straight back, Xue Bai thought for a while, but didn't follow.

Forget it, the eldest brother will be back in town in a short while, he should not join in the fun, but it is a pity to miss a good show...
