The Pretty Military Wife

His departure meant that Lao Xu would be back.

However, Lao Xu called back and said that he had gone to Lao Xiao's place. He saw Lao Xiao and he had recovered quite well.

He just lost a leg. I heard that he only had half of his left thigh.

However, because the mountain was still blocked by heavy snow, they couldn't just go back alone like Gu Sanding did. They had to follow the car back.

So, after receiving Lao Xu's call, Zhou Guoliang began to organize a team to shovel snow and clear the road.

But their tools are limited, so they really can only rely on manual labor.

They started shoveling snow on the sixth day of the New Year, and it snowed heavily again on the evening of the sixth day.

The snow was so heavy that it even collapsed the pig shed of their group. The two sows left were originally intended to be used as breeding pigs after mating this year.

But after being crushed by the snow, one of them died and the other had its hind leg broken.

So, they had no choice but to kill the two pigs.

Liang Xinyue's vegetable shed was also crushed.

Because after Gu Sanding left, among their leaders, only Zhou Guoliang was still there, and the others were the two deputy battalion commanders.

Zhou Guoliang had to be on duty in the regiment.

On the sixth night of the Lunar New Year, Deputy Battalion Commander Chen was in charge of the first half of the night.

Only after Liang Xinyue and the children had gone to sleep did he get up and return to the group.

He also wanted to spend more time with Liang Xinyue.

When Liang Xinyue arrived here, although she had gained a little weight, she was still too thin in his eyes.

Now that she is pregnant and has to take care of Lao Xiao's two children, he feels sorry for her.

So, on the morning of the seventh day, he went to take care of the pigsty. After Xiao Wei came back with breakfast, he ran away.

When Liang Xinyue went to the backyard to use the toilet, she discovered that the vegetable shed had collapsed.

Liang Xinyue was heartbroken.

The vegetables in the shed are now the food for these families. Without these vegetables, the children can only eat some dried vegetables or pickled vegetables.

Therefore, Liang Xinyue didn't care about her own body and hurriedly picked up the shovel to clean up.

The garlic sprouts were growing well, and Fu Chunhua was looking forward to eating the garlic sprouts and twice-cooked pork. But now, the garlic sprouts have all been crushed.

Fortunately, being pressed in the snow felt like being frozen.

Fu Chunhua also came over to see the situation here. Seeing Liang Xinyue shoveling snow, she hurried forward to help.

"Sister, let me come. This snow is freezing."

"It's okay. I feel warm while doing things."

Seeing the crushed garlic sprouts, Fu Chunhua kept saying what a pity.

“Is this the only way to pull it out?”

Liang Xinyue said hurriedly:

"Wait a minute, sister, use the scissors to cut this. Cut from here and see if it can be blown out again. After we clean it up, I'll cover it with plastic sheeting again."

“Then can this still sprout?”

Fu Chunhua also grew vegetables in the countryside. When they harvested these, the garlic shoots were all ripe or in bloom, so they were pulled up directly with the garlic bulbs.

Didn't you think this could be posted again?

But since Liang Xinyue said so, she might as well do it.

So the two of them cut off all the garlic sprouts that had grown. Liang Xinyue tidied up the unbroken parts of the plastic that had been pressed, and then covered it again. The sky was clear now, so it shouldn't snow for a while.

The radishes on the other side are much easier to deal with. They taste even better when covered with snow.

So, they just need to remove the leaves that are damaged. The ones that are most damaged are the green vegetables and celery.

Although some of them were cleared out, most of them are no longer acceptable.

There was still some plastic sheeting left at home, and with some other usable materials, after patching it up, the land was covered again.

The two of them worked for a whole day to clean up the entire vegetable garden.

However, the snow in the entire backyard still needs to be shoveled, otherwise it will all melt or freeze into ice, and the children will fall when walking on it.

Of course, adults have to be careful too.

Fu Chunhua reminded Liang Xinyue to be careful in various ways.

Liang Xinyue asked the children not to go out until she cleared all the snow and ice before they could go out.

With Fu Chunhua's help, the snow in the front and back yards was piled aside.

In the evening, Zhou Guoliang came back and saw that the snow at home had been cleared. He also learned that the vegetable shed had collapsed, and reached out to hug Liang Xinyue:

"Xinyue, there are some things in the future that you can leave to me. The most important thing for you right now is to take care of your health."

"It's okay. Sister Fu helped me with it. Sister Fu wouldn't let me move this or that. She basically did all the work."

Liang Xinyue said:

"But these snow piles should still be cleaned up. I looked around and found that the yards of other houses should also be cleaned up. The snow behind this house will not be able to be drained away once it melts."

I don't know what the people who built the house were thinking when they didn't leave a ditch in the backyard. And the backyard is slightly higher than the front yard. If the snow melts, the water may flow into the houses.

Zhou Guoliang also went to take a look. Those who had people at home could clean their own homes, such as Lao Xiao's home, Gu Sanding's home, and Political Commissar Xu's house. There was still snow piled in the yards.

Zhou Guoliang immediately went to find three squads of soldiers to help clear up the safety hazards in the family compound.

We also found two people who knew how to clean roofs to check if anyone’s roof was damaged.

This whole process lasted until after ten o'clock in the evening.

Zhou Guoliang told Liang Xinyue to get on the bed early so as not to get cold. As we all know, it is not cold when it snows, but when it melts.

"You sleep well, I will lock the door from the outside, and I will bring breakfast back tomorrow morning."

Liang Xinyue and the children slept on the kang, which was very warm and not cold at all.

However, the work of the people Zhou Guoliang arranged to shovel snow was in vain, because not only was there another layer of snow piled up, but the road leading to the regiment was also covered with snow, so they had to clear the snow from the entrance to the outside.

It was almost noon the next day when Fu Chunhua came with her two children. She was panting all the way:

"Although it didn't snow today, it's too cold today. Look, am I going to get frostbite on my face?"

Fu Chunhua was originally chubby, but the two spots on her round face that looked like highland red were now a little bluish-purple.

"Sister, please pull your hat down a little and wear your scarf higher to keep your face from getting cold. Otherwise, you'll get frostbite and it'll be really uncomfortable."

"Ahhh, it's a good thing that you suggested it and the regiment built this kang. Otherwise, we would all have frostbite this winter. Look, the children are so happy now."

At noon, Liang Xinyue invited the mother and her two children to have lunch at home. They cooked fish noodles and added some green vegetable leaves that they had rescued from the fields yesterday. It was very fragrant.

However, it is not so easy for the snow-clearing team. Even though there is strength in numbers, some roads are surrounded by mountains on one side.

The snow on the mountain will collapse again and may bury people.
