Four gusts of wind

He also squatted down and carefully observed the snow in front of him, only to see that there was indeed a row of clearly visible footprints left on it, and the footprints kept going forward into the dim place, with no end in sight.

"Why don't we go and find it?"

"Aren't there many footprints like this in the snow, I can't find them, we've looked for them before. "

"That's right. "

With that, Xiao Ran raised his head and looked ahead with some loss.

Seeing her lost appearance, the idea of wanting to find the footprints to the end also appeared in his heart, so he said with a smile.

"But if you find it this time, let's go, let's try." "

"Hmm. "

Xiao Ran nodded happily, and then the two of them walked deeper and deeper looking for footprints, and their vision gradually became dim.

"I always feel like it's right up front. "

"Me too. "

Feeling, just feeling, even though they had strong thoughts in their hearts, but they didn't find it until the end, but they accidentally got into the path that they had to go home every day from vacation when they were in elementary school, and then walked along the path to the separated ridges.

At this time, looking at the white and withered yellow forest below, both of them seemed to have forgotten what they were here for.

"I never thought this forest was so small. "

"Yes, like I used to think that the road to school was long, but it was so short. "

Xiao Ran's words came into his mind, and he looked back at the road again, he had walked countless times, and he never thought that it would be so short, and when he left the village, he only needed to pass through two fields and walk into the forest path, and then after two or three fields, he would go down the slope to the school.

It's short, it's short, it's really short.

"I remember walking for a long time every time I walked, but I didn't expect it to be so short. "

"Maybe it's because I was walking and playing at the time. "

"Well, I guess so. "

He nodded.

"Let's go, let's find a suitable branch to use as an arm for the snowman." "

"Hmm. "

So saying, they walked to the forest below, and when they reached the edge of the forest, the elder brother had already cut down the branches he had chosen and dragged them out.

"Why did you come down from above?" I just called you and you didn't respond. "

When he saw them, his brother was at first surprised, and then, as a matter of course, threw one of the branches to him.

"We searched and searched, and we got to the same path we used to take to go to school. "

"Do you two want to pick like that?" Although you want to find a beautiful one, you will get it at once, as for searching the whole forest?".

The elder brother corrected the branches as he spoke, and after a while, both branches were repaired by him.

"Let's go, let's go get it fit." "

"Okay. "

As soon as the camera turned, the snowman built in the morning has now become a good look, although it is not as beautiful as what you see on TV, but after being decorated with various miscellaneous things such as orange peels, it is still a little strangely cute.

"Done. "

"How long will this snowman exist?"

"Then who knows, it depends on the speed of the snow, although it can't melt like this today, but maybe it will be gone tomorrow." "

"Then take a good look today, in case you don't see it tomorrow." "

After speaking, Xiao Ran clasped his hands in front of him and made a wish, and his brother teased when he saw this.

"I've heard of making a wish for a meteor, but I've never heard of a wish for a snowman." Xiao Ran, do you want to be different?".

"You can make a wish on a shooting star, so why can't you make a wish on a snowman?".

"Yes. "

Xiao Ran closed her eyes and made a real wish, and when the wishing ceremony was over, she symbolically ran over and hugged the snowman.

"Xiao Ran, what wish do you make?".

"Wishes can't be said. "

"Brother Jun, Shaoxing, or maybe one of you?"

"I won't. "

The elder brother waved his hand and turned to fiddle with the shovel.

He shook his head and spoke slowly.

"I'm done with the snowman, why don't you go to the fire?"

"Let's take a look." "

"Come back and see the same thing after the fire, your hands are red." "

After he finished speaking, Xiao Ran glanced at his hand blankly, and then naturally inserted it into his pocket.

"It's okay, aren't you and Brother Jun also red? Red hands don't mean cold." Let's take a look. "

"Okay. "

"You can't just stand and watch." "

As he spoke, the elder brother took the opportunity to put the shovel horizontally on the ground, then sat on it, patted it, and said.

"How nice it is to sit and watch." "

"Hmm. "

He and Xiao Ran sat on the shovels with them, and then the three of them looked in a line at the booty they had been busy with all morning.

In sight, it seemed to really come to life, waving its hands and jumping left and right, with a smile on its face, its white body melting into the snow behind it, like a living person dancing in the snow.

"Brother Jun, where do you want to go to high school?"

"I don't know, looking at the results, it's probably the private one in the town." "

"Then Shaoxing will still be with Brother Jun?"

"No, didn't you say okay, let's go to the city together." "

"Hmm. "

The wind gradually became stronger, like thorns piercing his cheeks, and it was a little difficult to open his eyes when it was blown like this, although he had experienced it many times, he still couldn't imagine that the wind could become so sharp.

"Dabai, this guy, went to sleep again. "

He got up and glanced at the big white nest and complained.

Xiao Ran sneered at this, and then got up to look at its nest as well.

"It has been back in the nest since we went to get the firewood knife, and it is really comfortable to say that Dabai." "

"No, why didn't you open a school for dogs, I feel really uncomfortable watching it so comfortable every day." "

"Why don't you open one later?"

"It's not impossible, when I'm done reading, I'll go and open a school for dogs to read, and let him taste the taste of reading." "

"Well, let it taste, and then let it be your first student." "

As he spoke, the wind became stronger, making the three of them tremble.

"Alright, let's go to the fire first, and watch TV while the fire is roasted." "

The elder brother got up, took a shovel and a firewood knife and went down, and they slowly followed after answering the word.

Passing by the house in the middle, Da Bai heard their movements, shrunk and wagged his tail and slowly walked out, licked their hands, and then retracted again. After saying a few words, he led Xiao Ran to the courtyard, while the elder brother turned and walked to the hall to put the knife and shovel.

In a blink of an eye, I came to the house above, and at this moment my mother was still sitting in it with a fire and watching TV, when I saw the two of them, I hurriedly got up and beckoned them in, and then the three of them sat around the brazier and covered with a thin quilt, and his body slowly became warmer.

"Xiao Ran, where are you studying now?"

"Auntie, I'm in the city now, in the school behind the health center. "

"The one behind the health center, that's good, the school is very good, it's not like us Mao, who is studying in this shabby school in the town." "

"Auntie, in fact, Long Shaoxing can also go to our school, but the town is closer to home, like our school is too far from home, and it is inconvenient to go home." "

"Don't speak for him, it's strange that he can go to that school with his grades." "

"Auntie, Long Shaoxing's grades are quite good." "

"His grades are not good at all, he knows how to play every day, and it is strange if his grades can be good." By the way, Xiao Ran, listen to Auntie, usually play with him, less affected by him, at your current age, reading more is the right thing. "

"Well, Auntie is right, I've been studying very seriously. "

Xiao Ran saw that his mother didn't believe what he said, so he also gave up explaining, and he didn't say a word the whole time, and kept watching TV silently. Although he was watching TV, the content on TV was too boring for him, so he only had his eyes staring, and his thoughts had already drifted out of the clouds.

"By the way, Xiao Ran, what does your mother do now?"

"My mom is at home, Auntie, what about you and your uncle?"

"My father and I sew clothes across the factory, and now in this year, clothes are not easy to buy, and I can't earn a lot of money all year round. "

"Well, yes. "

"By the way, Xiao Ran, you must study hard and be admitted to a good university, people in our place, if you don't take a good university, you can only enter the factory." If you get into a good university, then you will get a pen in the office from now on, and you will have a lot of money easily, and you don't have to be tired to death every day like me and his father. "

"I will, Auntie. "

"Yes, yes." By the way, if you're hungry or not, I'll cook for you. "

"No, Auntie, it's still early, don't be hungry." "

"Are you really hungry?"

"I'm not hungry. "

"Mao, what about you?".

He shook his head and didn't speak.

"Okay, tell me when you're hungry, I'll cook for you." "

"Hmm. "

After chatting, Mom continued to watch the TV seriously, Xiao Ran's eyes also moved to the TV, just after he was unexpectedly finally able to calm down, Mom put down the remote control and looked at Xiao Ran and asked.

"Xiao Ran, did you just build a snowman with them?"

"Yes, Auntie. "

Xiao Ran's eyes immediately moved from the TV and replied.

"It's so cold outside, what kind of snowman do you build with them, their boys are not afraid of the cold, don't force yourself up, it's cold when the time comes." "

"It's okay, it's not cold, Auntie." "

"It's not cold yet, your hands were red from the cold when you came in just now." "

"However, Long Shaoxing's hands were also red from the cold. "

"He's used to his brother. "

"It's okay, I'm used to it, Auntie. "

"I can't get used to it, what should I do if I freeze bad." "

"We really didn't feel cold, as soon as it was cold, Long Shaoxing brought me to roast the fire." "

"That's okay, even if he still understands something." "

"Auntie, it's not too early at that time, I should go back to preview the text, and I'll come back to see you when I have time later." "

"That's it?".

"Well, every day at this time, I have to preview the text. "

"I'll let Mao send you." "

"No, auntie, don't bother, I'll just go back by myself." "

"How can this work, Mao, go and send it." "

"Oh. "

He got up slowly, even though Xiao Ran said no, he still followed Xiao Ran out of the door, and then walked along the road he often walked.

"Well, isn't my mom very verbose?"

"No, Auntie is very enthusiastic, but it's too enthusiastic to accept, I prefer to be quiet." "

"Indeed, it's better to be quiet, I hate to be verbose. "

"Yo, it's the first time I've heard you say what you hate. "

"Really?".

"Nope, right?"

"Yes. "

"Forget it, don't talk about this, you really have to preview the text at this time of day?".

"Of course not. "

With his hands behind his back, Xiao Ran jumped in front of him, and then turned around to show a very cute expression.

"Actually, I have to study every day after eating, but today my mother gave me a holiday, so I don't need a day. "

"You are so tired in elementary school, and you are so tired in junior high school?".

"It's worth it to get into college, at least that's what Mom said." "

The winter wind seems to have never been smaller, and the cold wind keeps whistling along the way, like a demon's low roar, unpleasant and annoying.

For a while, he suddenly felt that something had not changed, but it had changed again, just like the road to school, obviously it had always been like that, but he felt that it had become shorter, not only the road to elementary school, but even the road to send Xiao Ran home had become shorter. In the blink of an eye, they had reached the intersection where they had been separated, and as before, after saying goodbye, the two turned around and walked in opposite directions, and in the process, he turned back, and Xiao Ran still stood in place and watched him leave, even if it was not night.

When he got home, his brother had already sat next to his mother and watched TV with his mother, and his mother kept telling his brother how good Xiao Ran was, and asked them to learn more from Xiao Ran.

Seeing this, he took a deep breath, called out to Mom at the door, and then walked back to the house with heavy steps.

"Xiao Ran sent it back?".

"Well, send it back. "

"Just send it back." You should really look at other people, see how sensible they are, and study well and well. People are different from you, her father died, leaving her mother alone to ......."

Her dad died?

Mom was talking endlessly, but his mind was stuck on the words that her father had died, and he hurriedly interrupted and asked.

"Mom, Xiao Ran's dad died?".

"You two have been playing with her for so long, don't you know?".

He desperately recalled everything in the past in his mind, as if he had really only seen her mother when he went to Xiao Ran's house, even if it was the New Year.

"Mom, when did Xiao Ran's dad die?".

"That was a long time ago, when you were still at your grandmother's house. Xiao Ran's dad went to a far away place to mine or dig coal or something, the hole collapsed, and then it was buried inside. At that time, you were not sensible. "

"So, Xiao Ran doesn't know what his dad looks like, right?"

"I don't know about this, but if I leave a photo or something, I should know." "

After his mother finished speaking, he recalled the scene of Xiao Ran's house in his mind again, whether it was the living room or Xiao Ran's room, there were no photos, and he hadn't been to other places, so he didn't know.

Perhaps, I should have left a photo, right?

You should know or remember what it was like, right?
