Just after the Spring Festival, Wushi, the capital of the border province, experienced a heavy snowfall.

Although in recent years, due to the help of the government, many minority herdsmen no longer live a nomadic life, but once the snow is too big, the rotational grazing grassland will still be completely covered, and the livestock will still lack forage, and the yield will be inevitable.

In the training base in Tianshan District, Wushi, the quiet atmosphere shows the atmosphere of the New Year here, and there are only a few security personnel and necessary duty personnel in the huge base.

In a corner of the training base, Azgul? Maimaiti pushes snow shovels to push the snow off the road, while her brother Turgun is holding a shovel to dump the snow scattered on both sides into the grass and tree pits along the roadside.

Friends in the south may not be very aware of the harm of snow in the north, such as the frontier, once the snow is not small, if the accumulated snow is not dealt with early, the sun melts the snow during the day, and at night it will freeze again, and then this kind of road surface will be unusually slippery, and people will fall down if they step on it accidentally.

And because the winter is longer than in the south, once this ice and snow road is formed, it will generally not be completely melted until the end of April of the next year, so in Wushi, almost everyone will go out to clear the snow after every snowfall, and try to deal with the snow on both sides of the road to avoid causing damage to pedestrians.

However, the appearance of Azgul and Turgun at the base was an accident, they had already returned to their hometown for vacation, although it was only the Han calendar year, but such a holiday was treated the same for ethnic minority employees, after all, Han employees would also have a holiday during Eid al-Adha.

The sisters and brothers who returned to their hometown did not have a good life, the family's pasture suffered a snowstorm the year before last, and the livestock lost a lot, and this year the parents took out another loan, owing a butt of foreign debt, although the two of them went home to help a little, but it was useless to improve the environment of the whole family.

Azgul heard that if she was on duty at the base in the New Year, she would have double her salary and take care of food and housing, so she took her younger brother back to Wushi.

Azgul and Turgon's parents were very happy that the siblings took the initiative to share their family's worries, and they were also very happy that Turgun could continue to play, this is a very kind Uyghur couple, otherwise it would not have been possible to let Turgun, who is not an ordinary person, continue to study and play.

In fact, Turgun also wants to return to the base earlier, he can't live without basketball now, and the outdoor area in the frontier in winter is really not suitable for sports, so the base conditions are better.

Although Turgun's idea slightly makes outsiders seem a little heartless, it has to be said that it is his concentration that allows him to have such a good foundation and ball sense.

The sun after the snow was actually very harsh, and Turgun had to arm himself with all his strength, but fortunately it was winter and he didn't feel too hot.

Snow clearing is actually not an easy job, Turgun tried his best to let his sister do less, so as not to be tired, but my sister is extremely resolute, it seems that it is easier to overturn the snow on both sides of the road than to push the road away, but in fact, pushing away the snow is a really tiring job, more than ten centimeters of snow, if you want to completely push away, the person who works needs to continue to exert force, and there is a risk of slipping and injury if you are not careful, because of this, Azgul did not let her brother do this work.

"Okay, push these away and go to practice, the sun should be in the gym at this point, it's not too cold."

After pushing the main road away, Azgul told Turgun to hurry to practice.

After all, such a large training hall does not need to be heated, which will cause a lot of waste, so the whole base is now only heated in the staff dormitory.

The temperature inside the unheated arena is not much warmer than outside, so Turgun has to either endure the cold or wait for the sun to shine in the arena during the day.

"I'll help you finish pushing, there are still a lot of trails that haven't been swept away."

Turgun understood what his sister meant, but he also had his own insistence, and he didn't want his sister to be too affected.

"It's okay, you go and get it, I can do it alone, and maybe those security guards will come over in a while."

Indeed, as Azgul said, as soon as Azgul came back, several security guards on duty during the New Year were much more interested, and they would usually run over to help Azgul work when they had nothing to do, and one of them even helped to connect a wire and pull it into the stadium, so that Turgun could still have an electric heater to warm up a little when he was practicing.

However, Turgun stiffened his neck and did not speak, and then worked hard, and he directly showed his attitude with his actions.

"Go away, if you do this again, my sister will be angry, you can't waste time now, you have to train hard, Coach Wang gave you a chance not to let you use it to clear the snow."

When Wang Lei was mentioned, Azguli always felt sour in her heart, and she still couldn't let go of that tall and gentle man.

Just when the sister and brother were a little red and thick-necked because of the snow clearing, a voice came.

"Brother Maimaiti, do you need someone to help clear the snow?"

The sister and brother looked back, and it was actually a sturdy Hawul? Pilates walked over, still with a shovel in his hand.

"Why are you here, Brother Hawul."

"Brother Maimaiti, why didn't you tell me when you came back to Wushi? Is it to look down on me Haul? Pilates? If I hadn't happened to be passing by and heard the security guard at the door discussing your sister, I wouldn't have known you came back early. ”

(In the Uighur community, such names as brothers and elder brothers are commonplace.)

Hawul was indeed passing by the base, and when he heard the security guards making noise, who was going to help Azgul clear the snow, he knew that the sister and brother had returned.

Hawul, who had a relatively good family, used two cigarettes to get the security guard, and then came in with a shovel himself.

Listening to Hawul say this, Turgun did blush a little, from the moment he came to the base, Hawul took very good care of him, not to mention that at the beginning because of his conflict with Cai Aihong, that is, he had been taking care of him in training later, which made Turgun very grateful, although Turgun also had a faint understanding of Hawul's intentions, but he was really not qualified to refuse such kindness.

"No, Brother Hawul, we just came back a few days ago."

"Haha, okay, I'm kidding you, let's start working, let's go play ball after finishing it early, seriously, this holiday is boring, and I'm looking for someone to practice with."

Hawul had been speaking to Turgun, he was embarrassed to face Azgul, and although his intentions were so obvious, he was still a college student who had not graduated.
