477 days of cold and slippery roads

Although the sun has not yet risen to the sky, the remaining ice in the Su family's courtyard has melted a considerable part.

Although there is residual ice, most of the texture has become loose and porous due to the rise in temperature, and even if the copper nails on the spiked shoes worn by Su Qingluan have been seriously corroded, it is more than enough in the face of such "crispy ice".

So Su Qingluan walked to his younger brother and father, first pulled Su Xuanhe out from under Su Guangfu's body, and then squatted down, using himself as a handrail, and let his younger brother stand up with his arms and shoulders.

"You take two more steps over there, and you're holding me up, and you're on your feet." Su Qingluan commanded Su Xuanhe, "Yes, it's a flat position over there, don't stand on the slope." As she spoke, she stomped hard with her foot in the designated position.

As Su Qingluan stepped down, a layer of ice that was not very strong was trampled apart, revealing the already frozen hard ground below.

"Stand where I stepped on, it's not slippery over there." Su Qingluan said, letting Su Xuanhe stand over.

Sure enough, although there is still a little broken ice in the broken ice, after all, the land occupies the majority, and without the combined action of ice and water film, the slippery and untenable feeling is gone.

The little Su Qingluan can be brought up with his own strength, after all, although Su Xuanhe is a boy, he is only seven years old, and he is a head shorter than Su Qingluan.

However, Su Guangfu is a man in the prime of life, whether it is height or weight, it is not the same magnitude as Su Qingluan's shell, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, if he rashly helped him up, it is very likely that Su Guangfu did not stand up, and Su Qingluan himself was put down.

So Su Qingluan couldn't directly reach out to help, she thought about it for a while, estimated the distance between herself and Su Xuanhe, lowered her head and asked, "Daddy, can you turn around and come to me and my brother?" Together, we'll help you up. ”

Su Guangfu shook his head: "You see if the spiked shoes can crush the ice on the ground on my side, and I can stand up by myself." ”

Su Qingluan nodded, tried to follow Su Guangfu's words and stepped on the ice all the way, and soon stepped on Su Guangfu's approach.

The ground under the ice next to him was exposed, and Su Guangfu had a focus and stood up from the ground.

Su Qingluan looked at Daddy and his younger brother - the two of them were now covered with black mud mixed with crushed ice scum, and they looked very embarrassed, they definitely couldn't just go out like this, they needed to change their clothes.

What's more, Su Xuanhe needs to go to the school, and the road conditions on this road must be slippery and difficult to walk, and Su Qingluan has to think of a way to keep him from "rolling and climbing" along the way.

Yang watched Su Qingluan "open the way" in front with spikes, and Su Guangfu and Su Xuanhe in the back followed and stepped on Su Qingluan's footprints, and moved back to the "safe area" of the hall little by little, and the family of four breathed a long sigh of relief - the only thing left unaware was Su Xueyan's little girl who was still sleeping in the warm quilt.

After changing into clean clothes, father and son returned to the front room. Su Qingluan is making another spiked shoes from the copper spikes and straw sandals left over from the house. I can't guarantee the quality or anything, but at least fool the day first.

The father and son put on Su Qingluan's modified spiked shoes and tried it, although it was not very comfortable to wear another pair of shoes in the straw sandals, but it was much stronger than breaking directly on the ice before.

Yang didn't dare to go out for a while, and Su Qingluan honestly nested in the house and watched his sister, who had already eaten breakfast, practice writing big characters, thinking that when the heat of the sun was enough around noon, the ice surface would melt, and what to do.

As a result, I never thought that the sun was not warmer near noon, but the sky was overcast.

Su Qingluan suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart: Yesterday was also like this, the sky was still clear in the morning, and it began to be cloudy in the afternoon.

What worries her even more is that yesterday's rain has made the temperature drop a lot today, and there is still ice on the ground in the shade that has not completely melted, and if it continues to rain today, I am afraid that a layer of ice will also form on the ground tomorrow morning.

What's more, as the temperature drops further, even if the sun comes out tomorrow, the residual ice on the ground may not melt, and everyone's road will be even more difficult.

Thinking so, there was the sound of footsteps at the door. Su Qingluan raised his head, but found two unexpected people - Xi Niangzi and Su Xuanhe.

What's going on? Su Qingluan glanced up at the sky: it was only around noon.

She calculated a little, it had only been more than two hours since Su Xuanhe went out in the morning, so she wouldn't have gotten out of school so early anyway?

And why did Mrs. Xi send Su Xuanhe back? Su Qingluan's first reaction was whether this stinky boy had caused some trouble, but it didn't look like Xi Niangzi.

She hurriedly got up to greet her: "Xi Niangzi, why did you send this kid back, did he cause you any trouble?" ”

Originally, Su Qingluan just asked politely, but he didn't expect Su Xuanhe to bow his head weakly. This made Su Qingluan raise his eyebrows: It turns out that this kid is really causing trouble?

Xi Niangzi hurriedly waved her hand: "It's not a big deal, it's also cold and slippery, this kid accidentally bumped into my stall, and was later recognized by my Yunniang as Su Niangzi's younger brother, I was afraid that the child would slip and fall again in this weather, so I sent it back." ”

Su Qingluan looked at Mrs. Xi with a smile: "It's really troublesome for you." Then he turned his head and glared at Su Xuanhe: This little broken child!

In fact, Su Qingluan was more afraid than angry - there was no electronic eye monitoring in this era, and Su Qingluan did not see groups of people abducting children from afar.

However, the people around her turned a deaf ear to this situation, and even grabbed her who wanted to shout.

Su Qingluan later learned that this kind of person is generally committed in gangs, some are hands-on, some are hopeful, and some are entrusted to others to set up traps, although they will not rob the street, but it is easy to land if they are not careful.

And Su Qingluan, if he blindly calls for help and no one is behind to protect him, he is likely to be retaliated against.

Su Qingluan herself is not afraid of retaliation, she knows that Mu Xingzhi can ensure her personal safety at least - after all, there has been a "precedent" before, but she can't let her family take risks for herself.

To put it bluntly, if Mu Xingzhi's person was negligent and she caused the consequences of being harmed, she herself could be regarded as "self-inflicted", what about the family members she implicated?

Thinking of this, and looking at his younger brother who was a little weak and his eyes were rolling, Su Qingluan was even more angry.

"You're not studying in the academy, why did you suddenly run back by yourself? I'm not afraid to shoot the flowers for you to shoot away. She said angrily.
