The first snow, still in the midst of the fights and scrambles, got the flour.

The second snow was rice. The third snow is salt.

The villagers waited for the arrival of the fourth white sugar snow, but they did not wait for the fourth snow until spring came, when the ice and snow melted and the spring flowers bloomed.

It was then that people got up and began to believe what the little girl said. However, it was too late. They did not prepare the seeds for spring ploughing in advance, and there was no way to plant them in time. Only the little girl and her mother were cultivating the land.

The villagers thought about it, it doesn't matter, it's just that there is one kind of sugar missing, and there are other things that can still be fine.

Soon, the next winter season is upon us.

This winter, there were only two snowfalls, and sure enough, according to the little girl's prediction, there was one less. But the already lazy people don't want to support themselves at all, and always feel that this is just an accident, maybe next winter, the Snow Maiden will send more things.

By the last year of Snow Girl and Little Girl's schedule, there was only one snow in the winter. That's a lot of flour, twice as much as it would normally be. There were also some grain seeds, but no one wanted them. Only the little girl carried the basket and picked up the seeds that had been spoiled by the people.

The people cheered and jumped, all despising the little girl and her mother. Even her father disliked her for talking nonsense and spreading rumors.

Although there is only one variety left, there are so many more portions. This shows that the Snow Maiden will still send them things. This is the thought in everyone's heart. They don't know that this time they will give more, and that's because this is the last thing to give.

In the spring, the little girl and her mother planted seeds from the Snow Maiden on the land that had been cultivated for two years. In the past two years, this fast land has been in the hands of the mother and daughter, and it has been fertile and neat.

In autumn, the little girl and her mother happily harvest the grain they have grown. Although it was hard, their faces were full of happiness and peace of mind.

Winter is here again.

The little girl's land was planted with turnips and cabbage. The other villagers were still lazily waiting for the things sent by the Snow Maiden.

The weather is getting colder day by day.

Finally, in the cold, a heavy snow fell.

When the villagers crowded everywhere to grab the food, they found ...... This time, the ground was covered with silvery-white snowflakes that had not been seen in years......

The villagers were dumbfounded, how could this be? How could the snow fall was not food, but snow! The villagers began to be suspicious, then angry, and then helpless...... One by one, they sat on the snow with their heads down, unable to accept this fact.

The little girl was the only one who picked up a pile of snow with her hand, put it in the palm of her hand, made it into a ball, and happily threw it to her mother. They had a pleasant snowball fight, made snowballs, skied...... It's a lot of fun.

It's been ten years, and I haven't seen normal snow in ten years. This cold snow has long been forgotten by people.

Even so, the villagers still did not give up, they felt that one winter, there would be snow, maybe next time, it would be flour or rice...... terminal

In this way, the villagers waited and waited, and finally, waited for the second snow of this winter. But they were disappointed. The cold snowflakes, in the hands, turned into water, left along the palms of the hands, and dripped to the ground.

The little girl also caught a piece with her hand, which was a hexagonal snowflake, which was very beautiful. The little girl happily held the snow flakes and ran to her mother, but the beauty in her hand had turned into a drop of clear water.

Her mother smiled at her, "Go ahead, play with your little friends, and enjoy the snow." ”

The little girl happily "sigh~", turned around and ran.

Soon after, the mother heard the happy laughter of the children coming from the village. Mother continued to be in the kitchen, busy.

The little girl's father hasn't been home for a long time. At this moment, he quietly came to the door of his home. looked at his wife with a sad face, and his heart was full of guilt.

He had realized his mistake, but he didn't know if his wife would be able to accept him. In his hesitation, he lowered his head. A towel came into his eyes, and he looked up to see his wife looking at him with a towel.

He was so moved that he took the towel and wiped it on his face without saying anything. The wife turned around and went into the kitchen, he followed, looked at the unwashed cabbage in the kitchen, and started to help wash it.

Two people, just like that, neither of them spoke, but both knew what the other meant.

The little girl was tired of playing, and when she came home, she was a little surprised to see her long-lost father, but she soon smiled.

This winter, except for the little girl's family, who are happy and happy, everyone else is spending in a kind of melancholy.

Without the Snow Maiden's almsgiving, they didn't listen to the little girl's words at the beginning, and now that they think about it, it was all the Snow Maiden's advice. However, when I was blinded by greed, where would I have thought that there would be today.

They begin to regret and begin to reflect on their actions. Why did the Snow Maiden stop giving alms to them? How could the villagers, who were accustomed to such a prosperous life, endure the days of not having enough food and clothing in the future?

Some people, seeing the little girl's family, feel that they should learn from them, be self-reliant, and not rely on others. Some people just want to see if they can rely on their former savings to do something small. In short, everyone began to find a way out of their later lives.

When spring came, most of the people began to cultivate the land, and a few people went out to do business together.

In autumn, the people who cultivate the crops have a harvest to some extent. Whether it is vegetables or grain, it is the result of their own efforts. In winter, on the land where grain cannot be grown, turnips and cabbage can be grown. At the coldest time, people who went out to do small business also came back. They returned home with the fruits of a year's travel and shared them with their families.

The Snow Maiden watched from the sky, and in the village, she began to live in an orderly manner again. The mood of the people also became calmer, there were no quarrels, no snatching. Everything is so beautiful.

When it was time for the Chinese New Year, the villagers, who had not been reunited for a long time, held the first bonfire party in a long time in the square.

Snow Maiden becomes a passing big sister and celebrates with the villagers, and the satisfaction she has gained with her own hands is all on her face.

The little girl recognized the Snow Girl and tried to call her, but she stopped her. She took the little girl aside and told her, "It was all my fault before, I thought that if I gave people enough, they would be happy." However, I was wrong, I should have taught people from the beginning that they should be on their own to be truly happy. ”
