Chapter 34 34. Snow Stop
The boiling hot water is poured into the cup, and the curly tea leaves roll with the momentum, and after a while, they stretch out their green body.

Within a short while, the unique aroma of tea leaves overflowed the cup, filling the room with fragrance.

At this time, there were three figures surrounding the hot iron stove, one was concentrating on embroidering a purse, the other was holding an ancient book in his hand and reading carefully, only the remaining one was leaning on the reclining chair with nothing to do.

Cheng Xi turned over in boredom, yawned and looked out the window.

As far as the eye can see, it is still a vast expanse of whiteness, without any new ideas.

However, the difference from the previous few days was that the raging north wind was even stronger, blowing against the obstruction and making a howling sound, like a child crying.

"boom--"

A dull and familiar sound reached everyone's ears.

Shen Xingqi's hand holding the embroidery needle just paused, and then resumed the previous movement.

The other two were not affected at all, they should read and take a nap.

"Well, I don't know whose house collapsed this time."

Habits are a terrible thing.

After Wu Shuanzi's house collapsed, several other houses collapsed in the village one after another. At first, the big guys couldn't help but go out to check, but now they can completely ignore it.

It's normal to collapse the house.

The conditions in the village are not good, and most of the thatched houses are built. It is inevitable that the snow on the roof will collapse to a certain extent.

My own house is about to freeze into a dog, who has the leisure to watch other people's jokes?

Maybe it will be my turn next.

"what?"

Cheng Xi sat up straight, staring outside for a moment.

"The snow has stopped."

By the fire, Shen Xingluo paused slightly with his left hand holding the ancient book, and looked out from the side.

Sure enough, the snow stopped.

The sky that could not be seen clearly at first seemed to have dissipated, revealing the azure blue that should have been, with a sense of translucency.

The wind was still raging outside, and there was a whining sound when it blew into the gap, but it was not as desperate as before.

"This strong wind is not so useless, at least it blows away the haze."

The reason why the sky is so bright is its credit.

People's exclamations could be faintly heard outside the small courtyard, which could be heard clearly inside the house.

It was obvious that the other villagers had also discovered Xueting and started to cheer. Even Shen Xingqi put down the purse in her hand and showed joy.

"The snow has really stopped? Can't we say that?"

"Don't be in a hurry to be happy."

Cheng Xi shook his head slowly, "There is a saying that 'It's not cold when it's snowing, it turns cold when it's snowing', especially pay attention to keeping warm these few days."

Besides, we have to talk about whether we will go down in the future.

Since she traveled through time, she has developed a habit of paying attention to temperature changes every day.

But this morning it was already close to [-] degrees under the order, which was unthinkable for the Lin'an Mansion in previous years.

Once the snow stops, it will enter the snow melting stage, which will take away most of the surrounding heat, and the temperature will hit a new low at that time.

That's the real test for people.

Shen Xingluo couldn't help but cast admiring glance at Cheng Xi's words.

"Indeed, keep warm after snowfall."

Having experienced it personally, he knows the power of melting snow better than anyone else. In the last life, everyone cheered so happily, thinking that the month-long snow disaster had come to an end and they were ready to welcome a new life.

However, with the sun came the extremely low temperature, and countless people in Dayan were frozen to death, especially those who were on the migration road.

Although Lin'an Mansion is better, the surrounding villages also suffered a lot of casualties.

"Try not to go out these few days, and even if you go out, you should dress warmly."

"Got it, brother."

The sun appeared in the southwest of the sky that afternoon, although it was not particularly bright, it was enough for the villagers to cheer for a while.

"The sun is coming out!"

"It's been so many days since I saw the sun, I almost don't recognize it."

"It can be considered that the snow has stopped. If this continues, if you don't starve to death, you will freeze to death!"

"Damn, this year is really evil!"

In fact, the evil thing has just begun, and what they are currently experiencing is not even a halftime break.

When the villagers were about to go out for a walk, they were chilled as soon as they opened the gate, and they closed the gate again faster with their hands than their brains.

"boom--"

"God, why is it so cold?!"

"Fortunately, I closed it quickly, otherwise my nose would be frozen off!"

"No, no, I'll go back and lie down for a while."

As for the problem that the bones are about to melt?
That's better, at least it's better than going out and freezing to death!
I don’t know how many doors of houses were closed and closed that day. Most people panicked the moment they opened the door, and very few were able to walk to the street.

In the small courtyard of the Shen family, Cheng Xi brought a small porcelain pot from the kitchen.

"Sister-in-law, what delicious food is this again?"

Shen Xingqi helped her lift the lid of the iron stove, and was stunned after seeing the ginger slices and red dates floating in the pot.

Hey, it's not for food?

It's so fresh, her sister-in-law doesn't even cook anymore!

Cheng Xi added some more water, "It's too cold outside, it's easy for the cold wind to enter the body, drink some red dates and ginger tea to prevent it."

This is ancient times, and a cold can easily kill a person.

Although she has all kinds of Chinese and Western medicines in her hands, she should try to avoid them as much as possible. After all, getting sick is also a labor-intensive job.

"Drink more later to drive away the cold."

Thanks to the most primitive brown sugar in ancient times, Cheng Xi spent a lot of money to buy a few catties when he went to the grocery store, and it came in handy now.

A few pieces of charcoal were added to the iron stove to burn vigorously, and the water in the porcelain pot quickly boiled.

The ginger slices and red dates added in it emit their own flavor when heated, and the smell of brown sugar can float far away.

Full of spiciness.

To be honest, Cheng Xi doesn't like ginger.

Even if it is used for seasoning on weekdays, it is thrown away after use.

But today
She giggled, took out three big white bowls, each scooped up a full bowl, and put it in front of the Shen brothers and sisters.

"Drink it all for me, don't leave a single drop!"

How do you say that?

Blessings and hardships, it's time to see how deep our friendship is!

Shen Xingqi was the first to take a sip, and immediately burst into tears, almost being sent away by the spiciness of the ginger slices.

"It smells so good~"

"You have to drink it too, pinch your nose and finish it in one go."

Cheng Xi said this to himself, and as soon as he finished speaking, he took the lead in drinking a bowl of water, his little face flushed from choking.

Although the three of them have not been frozen since the beginning of winter, the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is too large, which has also caused a lot of burden on the body.

have to drink!

Cheng Xi turned to Shen Xingluo in leisure time after drinking, planning to have some fun.

However, the other party didn't blush or breathe, and quickly drank it up one after another.

His expression didn't change from the beginning to the end, and his brow didn't even frown.

".?"

Something is wrong, something is wrong.

How did the 18-year-old do it?
He must have a natural love for ginger!

Cheng Xi decided to cook more next time, and open a bowl for him alone.
