284 Building A Snowman

“That’s right, Mother. If Tang Tang wants to build a snowman, it definitely won’t be as fast and good as us. What if she gets anxious? Let’s just build a big one together.”

Although San Bao’s answer was also in line with Mo Ruyue’s request, the words he said really made people not know whether to laugh or cry.

“You guys also chose to pile up the big one together?”

She then turned to Da Bao and Er Bao.

!!

“Yes, let’s do it together so that we can have a sense of participation. Mother once told us the story of a pair of chopsticks. We haven’t forgotten it.”

Although Da Bao didn’t say anything, he just nodded silently.

It seemed that everyone’s thoughts were the same. Mo Ruyue also nodded and said, “In that case, let’s make a snowman together!”

After their mother spoke, the babies burst out in cheers for the second time.

This time, Mo Ruyue didn’t play the leading role, but gave the initiative to the babies.

“Since we’re going to build a snowman, we have to do it well. We can’t just do it sloppily. We have to divide the work and cooperate. So, let’s talk about what you’re each responsible for?”

Her words were just a guide, and the final choice was still in the hands of the babies.

“Let’s make little snowballs. Si Bao will be in charge of rolling the snowballs. You two will be in charge of rolling the snowman’s head out.”

At this time, Er Bao took the initiative to take on the role of distributing tasks. He was the most calculative person, and the plan that he planned would never be wrong.

“San Bao and Big Brother will be in charge of building the snowman’s body. You don’t need to roll the snowballs, just shovel the snow around and pile it together.”

After Er Bao had settled his younger brothers and sisters, he began to arrange his older and younger brothers. In the end, only he and his mother had not been assigned any tasks.

“Then what should I do with you?”

Mo Ruyue took the initiative to ask.

“Mother and I will be in charge of supporting these two groups at any time. As you often say, we are two bricks, we will move wherever we need to!”

Er Bao said with a smile, setting the division of labor between him and Mo Ruyue.

Compared to the snow shoveling group, the progress of Tang Tang and Si Bao’s group was not very smooth.

They had originally been slowly rolling a small snowball into a big snowball, but they always accidentally used too much force and crushed the snowball, so they had to do it again.

On the other hand, Da Bao’s group only needed to shovel the snow around them, pile it up, and slowly trim it.

Fortunately, Tang Tang and Si Bao were not impatient. Although they failed several times in a row and their progress was far behind that of their eldest and third brothers’ group, they were still not arrogant and impatient. They would readjust their strength every time they failed.

Mo Ruyue watched from the side and nodded in her heart.

Originally, she had planned to teach them how to control their strength if they were a little impatient. She didn’t expect them to be able to figure it out on their own.

Building a snowman could be a very casual entertainment, but it also turned into an educational and fun classroom. Obviously, the two babies chose the latter at the same time, using their own way to turn the frustration of failure into a kind of fun.

Just as Da Bao’s group had roughly built the snowman’s body, Si Bao had rolled the snowman’s head out.

The next step was to move the snowman’s head to its body without breaking the snowball. This task was left to Tang Tang.

Her hands were light, so she had to ensure that she could move while holding the snowball, but she couldn’t use too much force to cause the snowball to break. This actually not only involved the control of the strength of the arm and wrist, but more importantly, the control of the core power.

Tang Tang carefully picked up the snow ball, adjusted her posture, and quickly walked toward the snowman.

She didn’t deliberately slow down her pace or move the snowball carefully. Instead, she held the snowball normally and even walked a little faster than usual.

When she successfully placed the snowball on the snowman, Mo Ruyue even felt that she subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it didn’t shatter and she succeeded.

However, this was just a snowman. Why was it that as a bystander, she was even more nervous than the person who was actually building it?

“Alright, next up is the segment that Mother and I will be participating in!”

Er Bao’s hands were already itching for a fight, and he couldn’t wait to join in.

“Let’s all design something for the snowman, and then we’ll vote to decide whose work is the most popular. Whoever’s work will be the final form for the snowman! What do you guys think?”

“Second Brother, don’t tell me you want us to go back to the room and draw? Don’t even talk about the trouble, even if we’re all wet from the snow now, and our shoes are wet too, it’ll be difficult to clean up when the house is wet!”

Si Bao was the first to object.

In the past, he had always been very supportive of his second brother’s suggestions. Of course, the premise was that they had to be reasonable. But now, it seemed that these suggestions were obviously laborious and unrewarding. Therefore, he did not give Er Bao any face and directly raised an objection.

“You don’t have to go back to your room to draw.”

Er Bao said with a smile. He didn’t feel embarrassed at all that his suggestion had been rejected by his fourth brother.

He casually broke off a dead branch and started to draw on the ground that had just been shoveled.

Although the weather was cold, the ground covered by snow had not been completely frozen. The dried branches could still leave shallow marks on the ground.

“We can also draw on the snow, but we have to spread out and take up a bigger space so that we can draw more.”

This time, it was Tang Tang who spoke. She didn’t know why her second brother didn’t directly draw on the snow, but chose to draw on the ground, which was relatively more difficult to draw. It would take a lot of effort to draw such shallow marks, otherwise, it would be impossible to tell what he had drawn.

Er Bao made an expression of realization and said, “Aiya, I forgot about that. I was just thinking that this land is as soft as it was in summer, so it wouldn’t take much effort to draw it. Tang Tang is still the smart one. Let’s do it this way. We’ll each take a space and then disperse.”

Mo Ruyue laughed in her heart. Er Bao had always been the one with the most ideas among the few babies. How could he not have thought that it would be difficult to draw when the ground was frozen in winter?

She had seen him winking at Da Bao just now, but it was just to make Tang Tang say this, so he had many reasons to praise her.

Among the four of them, Er Bao was the one who treasured Tang Tang the most.

Da Bao was the oldest among them. He was mature, calm, and serious. He had the dignity of an elder brother and was able to hold his ground at critical moments. Although he was a little distant from his four younger siblings, he still loved and protected them.
