Chapter 1221 - 1041, Clingy as a Plaster
"The snow this year is falling too heavily and too frequently. I hope it stops soon." Otherwise, we might be faced with another snow disaster.
Watching the goose feather-like snowflakes falling outside the window, Daohua was filled with concern.
Her son, Daozi, who was practicing his calligraphy nearby, heard her and replied: "Mom, it’s better when the snow falls heavily. That way, the snowman we built in the courtyard won’t melt away."
It was because of the heavy snow that the snowman he built with his mom has remained untouched for over half a month, still looking the same.
Hearing this, Daohua sat beside Daozi and started explaining to him the dangers of a snow disaster.
Daohua: "If the snow falls too heavily, houses can collapse under the weight."
Daozi: "Then those houses must have been built poorly."
Daohua: "Not everyone lives in houses as sturdy as ours. Remember, many of the homes in Daohua Village are made from mud and straw? Those houses can’t withstand too much pressure."
"Think about it, we have a charcoal brazier and a fireplace at home, as well as thick cotton clothes, and we still feel cold. What about those without a house to shelter them, staying out in the icy wilderness?"
Daozi shivered: "They could freeze to death."
Daohua nodded: "Not only that, if too much snow accumulates, roads can get blocked, and then you can’t go out. If there’s food at home, it’s fine, but if there isn’t, what then?"
