After breakfast, Chu Xiao followed Yan Zhenshen and Yan Sanmei to shovel snow. They didn’t feel very cold when they were moving.

The third sister put down the shovel, squatted down and made a big snowball. It seemed that she still remembered the grudge from the morning, and when Yan Zhenshen was not paying attention, she threw a snowball at him.

Yan Zhenshen raised the shovel in his hand and blocked the snowball tightly.

The third sister stamped her feet in anger: "Do you have eyes behind your back?"

Yan Zhenshen ignored her and continued working.

Chu Xiao found it interesting, so he squatted down and made a snowball to throw at Yan Zhenshen, who took a step forward and dodged it.

Chu Xiao continued, and the third sister followed suit. They threw snowballs one by one. Yan Zhenshen dodged a few times, and then he stopped dodging and let the snowball hit him straight in the chest.

Then he sighed and said, "Don't you two play in the snow, or your hands will get cold?"

Yan Sanmei was not convinced: "I didn't hit it at all, and you let me hit it once, then I won't play anymore."

"Then go ahead and play. You're the one who's cold anyway." Yan Zhenshen refused without hesitation.

Yan Sanmei was so angry, "Why didn't you hide behind Brother Xiao when he hit you?"

"Husband, stop playing in the snow. Your hands are frozen red." Yan Zhenshen said as he pulled Chu Xiao up from the ground.

Chu Xiao was having so much fun playing that he was smiling all the time and he didn't even notice that his hands were frozen red.

"Put some badger oil on your face before you go in, or you'll get frostbite."

Speaking of frostbite, Chu Xiao quickly washed his hands and went into the house to apply badger oil.

Chu Xiao had never experienced winter, so how could he know that it was easy to get frostbite in winter? The two of them went up the mountain to hunt wolves those days, and on the way back Chu Xiao's hands and feet were sore and itchy. Yan Zhenshen took a look and said that he had frostbite.

Only then did he remember that Chu Xiaoxiao lived in the woodshed and got frostbite almost every year. She couldn't sleep at night when the pain came.

Yan Zhenshen bought him some badger oil and asked him to apply it on his hands and feet, which helped a lot.

By the way, I also bought some clam oil for my family, which is for applying on the face, so that the face will not be blown red by the north wind, and it will hurt a lot when it is hot and cold. (In the north, people say that the face is blown.)

Chu Xiao didn't want to endure the painful and itchy feeling at all, so he was very conscious when wiping his hands and feet. As for clam oil, how could he deeply understand it if he had never experienced it?

While the two were talking, Yan Sanmei secretly threw another snowball at him. Yan Zhenshen didn't dodge, and the snowball didn't hurt much when it hit him.

He turned his head to look at Yan Sanmei and said, "If you get hit, you should also go in and apply badger oil, otherwise you will get frostbite and cry."

"I'm not crying." Yan Sanmei said this, but she also went back to the house obediently.

Yan Zhengdao rarely went out this winter, mainly because his crippled leg hurt a lot when exposed to the cold.

He slowly walked out of the room and looked up at the sky: "I'm afraid the snow will continue to fall."

Yan Zhenshen responded, "After the snow is cleared, I will go up the mountain to chop some firewood."

"Okay, this is a cold winter, so it's right to prepare more firewood."

By the way, take the hunting dogs out for a walk. Hounds that run in the mountains and forests for a long time are different from guard dogs. If they are always locked in the backyard, they will become irritable.

These past few nights, Dahuang and Dahei would bark from time to time. This was because they had been trapped for too long and were feeling irritable.

In fact, their home is far from the village, so it's not that they can't let the hunting dogs run around on their own, but they are afraid that no one will be watching and some unruly people will come to tease them. If they bite someone, it will be difficult to explain.

A few people cleared the snow in front and behind the yard, then went to the backyard to bring out the hunting dogs.

Zhao Guizhi took Yan Sanmei to Liujiawan to buy mutton. Although the snow was thick, the roads between villages were relatively flat and not difficult to walk on.

On the contrary, mountain roads covered with snow are very slippery, and if you don't sit firmly on the ground, you can slide directly to the bottom of the mountain.

Originally, Yan Zhenshen didn't want to bring the wolf cub and Xiaohui out, but when the two little guys saw the hounds go out, they refused to stay in the backyard and kept scratching the door, whining.

Although Chu Xiao likes small animals, he is definitely not the type who spoils them. After all, people who come from the end of the world understand the law of survival of the fittest the best.

So if they want to follow, then let them follow. They are all grown dogs and wolves, and it’s time for them to experience the wind and snow.

Before going out, Yan Zhenshen went to the woodshed and took out the sled he had made earlier. He also made two sleds with some waste leather so that the hunting dogs would not be strangled by the ropes when pulling the sled.

Dahuang and Dahei didn't like being restrained and refused to let anyone put condoms on them at first. However, Taxue didn't mind and just stood there quietly and let them do whatever they wanted.

As he ran on the snow, the sled was pulled quickly, and Chu Xiao sat on it and laughed excitedly.

Dahuang and Dahei followed closely behind, barking and running on both sides of Chu Xiao.

As for the wolf cub and Little Gray, their short legs were not strong enough and they were soon left far behind. Fortunately, there was a master following them who was slower than them, so it was not too embarrassing.

Taxue pulled Chu Xiao around for a while and then ran back. Chu Xiao was having a great time and got off the sled: "Brother Shen, this is fun, you should go and ride it too."

Yan Zhenshen didn't sit down. In the village, those who played with these things were mostly teenagers or lazy scoundrels who had nothing to do. After all, there were so many things to do at home, and who would waste time playing with these things?

Seeing that Yan Zhenshen really didn't want to sit, Chu Xiao put the wolf cub and Xiao Hui on the sled and walked with Brother Shen.

As Taxue ran again, screams were heard from the sled. It was obvious that the two little things were scared.

Not long after running, the wolf cub resolutely jumped off the sled and rolled several times in the snow before he could steady his body.

He climbed up and raised his head and roared in the direction of the sled. Then Xiao Hui also jumped down, but it rolled farther.

"It's okay, he probably isn't hurt, otherwise he would be screaming again." Yan Zhen was afraid that Chu Xiao would worry, so he quickly pulled him over to check.

Seeing that the wolf cub was fine, but covered in snow, Chu Xiao kicked it with his toes and said, "Coward, you're so useless. You're afraid of riding a sled."

Even more useless than it is a little gray one. He was unsteady when he jumped off the sled and had to fall several times before he could walk normally.

When he reached the foot of the mountain, Yan Zhenshen didn't go too high. He picked a few trees that were not very straight and started cutting them down.

Chu Xiao was not good at cutting down trees, so he just walked around the area. Before he had walked far, he saw the wolf cub growling alertly in one direction.

Chu Xiao paused. Is there prey?

Looking at Taxue again, there was no reaction at all, and she was still following him leisurely.

Chu Xiao: “…” Is there prey or not?

He walked in that direction and saw a backpack placed behind a very thick tree. A child's head was exposed in the basket, staring in their direction without blinking.

Chu Xiao: “…” Could it be another time and space administrator?
