The heavy snow lasted a day and a night, accumulating above the knees, as if making up for the entire winter season. Indoors, it was hard to even push the doors open.
Such snowy weather not only caused the cancellation of the early dynasty, but also prevented timely visits to the government office.
Zhou Shuren was used to rising early. When he got up, servants were cleaning the snow with lanterns in hand. After going outside for a round, he came back to see that his wife had also awakened.
"Why did you get up so early today?"
Zhulan had already changed her clothes, "I woke up to the sound of the snow being shoveled. Is the snow heavy outside?"
Zhou Shuren nodded, "Yes, the places that weren't cleared yesterday are now thicker than knee height."
Zhulan tiptoed to peer through the glass window, using the light from the lantern to see the accumulated snow, "I wonder if it's just the capital, or a widespread phenomenon."
