Chapter 170: You Will Lose Completely (6)_1
Seeing that Si Ya remained still, her complexion uglier than ever, San Ya nudged her to get to work, whispering, "Si Ya! In the future, you must listen to your eldest sister!"
Si Ya kept her little face taut and said nothing, picking up a wooden basin brimming with snow to empty outside.
The ridge was in the middle, so the snow on this side was shoveled into the courtyard, while the snow on the other side had to be pushed quite far away.
A big pile of snow dropped into the yard with a thud, and the people inside the house came out to see Pei Qin sweeping the roof’s snow into their courtyard. Pei Wenlee immediately went to call for Lady Zhu.
Lady Zhu stood at the doorway, watching Pei Qin clear the accumulated snow on the rooftop amidst the heavy snowfall. She seemed to see beneath Pei Qin’s calm exterior a raging tide of hatred. Recalling how Old Pei and Pei Houli had knelt before her, only for their own family to suffer the consequences instead, Lady Zhu felt an itching hatred in her teeth, but she dared not provoke Pei Qin at this moment, lest she come over in a fury and start hitting people.
After clearing the snow from the rooftop, Pei Qin jumped straight down from above.
San Ya cried out in alarm, instinctively reaching out to catch her.
Pei Qin judged that the house was low and there was a heap of snow below, perfect for her to jump down safely.
