Chapter 331: Chapter 331 Snowstorm (3)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
However, no one had the time to complain. They were only thinking about how to keep their houses intact. Otherwise, they would freeze to death.
The villagers were busy the whole night; some even found new materials to reinforce their roofs.
It was not until the next morning that the snow gradually lessened.
However, the snow on the ground was already five feet deep. If someone didn’t have their door opened, it would take them a long time to do so.
Zhou Ying finished helping Gu Chengrui and made a lamb stew in her inters.p.a.ce. After the two finished breakfast, they took a shower and left the inters.p.a.ce.
When she saw the snow outside, piled nearly as tall as a person, she took out a pair of sleighs and said, “Rui, you stay at home just in case. I need to go to the manor.”
“Are you kidding me? The snow that just fell is especially soft, and there is no snow path. It will be difficult to get out if you accidentally fall into the snow.
“Besides, with Manager Liu there, everything would be fine.
“Even if there’s something, it’s too late to go over now. Let’s wait for the snow to stop completely; then, we’ll make a plough to go over.” Chengrui stopped her.
He was also concerned about the cattle and sheep in the manor, as they were the only sources of food for the inhabitants on the surface. However, no matter their importance, they were not as important as their lives. He could not take the risk.
Zhou Ying hesitated for a moment. Looking at the frighteningly thick snow, she finally gave up. The two cleared a path from their kitchen to the woodshed and quickly started a fire.
It was almost noon when the short path was cleared, but the snow was still falling.
After lunch, they went into the house to read a book while observing the snow.
By nighttime, the snow had lessened. By midnight, the snow had gradually stopped.
Only then did Zhou Ying and Gu Chengrui lie down and have a good sleep.
When the snow started falling, people were on duty in the cattle and sheep shed in the manor.
That was why they had discovered the possibility of a snowstorm earlier than anyone else.
The person on duty immediately called for everyone to get busy, so other than wasting some firewood in the cattle and sheep sheds, there were no casualties.
However, Manager Liu and the others could no longer live in their tents. Half of them crammed into the courtyard, while the other half crammed into the newly constructed dormitory.
As for Hu Chun’s newly built village, although they discovered the snowstorm a little late, their house was newly built, so they were fine.
However, their food supplies were usually bought daily. They could, at most, last for ten more days with their supplies, but the road might not even be cleared in a month, let alone ten days.
Therefore, when Hu Chun saw the situation outside early in the morning, he was so anxious that his mouth began to froth.
He immediately called out for everyone to quickly clear the roads to the village.
As for the other villages, including the town, most of the inhabitants discovered the snowstorm too late and had their roofs collapse. They had to wait for rescue and just try to hold on and survive.
So when the snow stopped, the people finally heaved a sigh of relief. But when they looked at the snow outside their homes, they all started to worry.
On the morning of the third day, Gu Chengrui woke up and said, “Babe, let’s use your inters.p.a.ce to suck in the snow. It’ll be troublesome if the snow starts to melt after being piled up.”
“Alright, I’ll put them in the storeroom.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she put her hand directly on the snow to try, but she could only put a palm-sized piece in each time.
She then looked at Gu Chengrui with an embarra.s.sed expression on her face.
Gu Chengrui smiled. “Take out the small cart from the villa. Try it again once it’s filled.”
Zhou Ying nodded and did as she was told, and she found it could be stored in her inters.p.a.ce that way.
After they found a way, they started to get busy. They moved most of the snow in the yard into the inters.p.a.ce, and by noon, they could open their door..
