Years: Salted fish life since going to the countryside.

Chapter 343 Ice Lantern
Han Li walked in front, while a group of girls chatted about various topics behind.

Under the arrangement of the head dog Yamamoto, the dogs surrounded everyone to keep vigilant. As for the two lynxes, they are still lying on the firewood stack to watch the house.

However, as Han Li led everyone higher and higher, Hao Hongmin couldn't help but glance behind him.

This casual glance made Hao Hongmin feel a sense of regret, and she blamed herself for looking back so early.

Due to her height, Hou Yuhua had the hardest time walking. At the beginning, her roommate Zhang Shulan was pulling her. Finally, Qi Zhaodi couldn't bear it and grabbed her other arm.

The surrounding environment became quieter and quieter, and the sound of shoes stepping on the snow became clearer and clearer.

Just when someone couldn't help but want to speak, Han Li stopped and turned around, pointing in the direction he came from and said.

"Everyone look back at the place we live in now, isn't it beautiful now, like a dream world?"

Everyone looked back along Han Li's finger, and they saw that Shanghe Village was very beautiful at this time.

Everyone rubbed their eyes lightly, and they looked at the village in front of them in disbelief. Is it really a place they hate and want to escape all the time?

At this moment, they were standing on a high place, and the originally loose courtyard seemed to become closer together.

Against the background of the lights, these houses seem to be like white clouds falling from the sky to the world.

Under the influence of snow, wind, and the dim light, the originally inconspicuous houses have become fat and puffy, which is very cute.

Looking at the roof, outside, and courtyard walls under the mountain, the white snow is covered, and the red lanterns are getting more and more red against the background.

The orange light of the electric lights in the house shines through the windows, giving people a very warm feeling.

When the lights in the house, the lantern poles and the bright red lanterns at the door are combined together, there is a soft golden light, and the courtyard walls and fences are as attractive as if they are inlaid with gold.

When the wind blows, you can occasionally see the smoke in the chimney hovering around from the light, like a child playing hide-and-seek, and soon disappears.

For those houses with lanterns hanging at the door, the immaculate white snow is changing endlessly under the reflection of the red lanterns, it feels like it is covered with a layer of hazy colors, making people feel like an unreal fairy tale world in front of them.

"Is this really Shanghe Village?"

"It's so beautiful."

"Unbelievable, really unbelievable."

"So lovely."

"I'm dreaming now, it's much more beautiful than what is described in the book."

"Brother Li, how did you come up with the idea to watch it from here, it's so beautiful."

"No way, who gave me a pair of eyes that are good at discovering beauty."

"It would be nice to have a color camera at this time, so we can keep this beautiful scene."

"There will be that day."

No matter how beautiful the scenery is, everyone will go back here after watching it for a while, because it is too cold here.

Back this time, everyone looked at the original houses and felt that they were not that bad. Even the lights in the houses seemed to have turned into warm colors, which made them feel a lot closer in their hearts.

At this time, many children in the village were playing in the street with homemade little red lanterns. These lanterns were made of wicker, and they used cans and bottles to paste a layer of red paper on the outside. Some small lanterns were actually made of ice. Yes, anyway, booming is very fun.

But everyone has been blowing a cold wind on the mountain for a while, and now they just want to go home and warm up.

What makes Han Li feel a little bit sad is that He Mi and the others are going back to their yard today, which makes him a little bit sad after he has just tasted the difference, but the days to come are still long, and he has plenty of time to appreciate it slowly. ..

And it seems good to be sneaky, after all, the old saying goes that a wife is worse than a concubine, a concubine is worse than stealing, and stealing is worse than not being able to steal.

I didn't sleep well last night, and today I had a busy day, so everyone washed and went to bed very early at night.

The next day, Han Li returned to his previous life.

Since they don't need to open the door too early during the Chinese New Year, their family added some morning exercises appropriately.

Han Li only needs to drag one person to start exercising first, and the other will soon follow.

If there is no plowing in spring, there is nothing to look forward to in autumn;

Simply put, the plan for a year lies in spring, and the plan for a day lies in morning.

Han Li thought that these words were really reasonable. He looked refreshed after waking up today, and he felt very powerful even when he started to fight in the yard.

The first to fifth day of the first lunar month is the day when people go out to visit relatives and friends, and the second day is the day when married daughters return home to visit relatives.

But in this case, where do they go back home, but the dumplings for the first grade and the noodles for the second grade still have to be arranged.

However, according to the local customs, the face of the second year of junior high school is a little bit more particular.

Today's noodles need to be made into dumpling noodles on the first day of the new year, and the noodles are soaked in cold water after cooking, which is called cold soup noodles.

The noodles under Yun Yingying's hands are cut very evenly, and the fried sauce stew fried by Yun Jingjing is very tempting.

Probably because of the morning exercise, all three of them ate a lot, Yun Yingying said while eating.

"Brother Li, we're going to visit Sister Hongmin and Xiu and the others later. I heard that the commune will be very lively today. We want to go and have a look."

Playing the first month, making troubles in February, and marching to March, there will definitely be a lot of excitement in these few days, Han Li agreed without thinking.

"If you want to go, let's go, but it's very cold today, so you must bring your coat, hat and scarf."

They were talking here, when Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying brought Meng Zaihong to look for them.

"You guys are late enough for breakfast today. Sister Yun, hurry up and finish eating so we can go to the commune to see what's going on."

"Sit down first, we'll finish eating here soon."

"Are only a few of you going?"

"No, we are the first ones to come to your house. Sister Hongmin, please sit down and have a rest. I'll go and see how the others are preparing?"

After eating, when Han Li sent them to the door, he realized that all the female educated youths in Shanghe Village had been mobilized.

This made Han Li's idea of ​​taking the opportunity to talk to He Mi about his feelings in vain. He felt that he had miscalculated. If he had known that they were going out to play today, he should have told He Mi. Now he can only look at a group of female educated youths. He laughed and walked towards the distance.

When Han Li returned home, he checked the degree of precipitation of the ointment, and found that it would take some time before he could proceed to the next step.

Han Li sat in front of the table today and couldn't read the book anyway. He thought of the lanterns that the children were carrying when he came back last night, especially the light from the small frozen lanterns was particularly dazzling.

Han Li could use decomposition to get the ice lamps he wanted directly, but those too smooth are a bit eye-catching,

So Han Li came to the yard, took out iron buckets, basins, enamel cups, cans and other utensils and began to fill them with water.

And put a little red ink in the water, the water is all dyed red.

Frozen outside for a period of time will turn into an ice bump, but you can’t let them freeze solidly or completely. You only need to freeze the outer layer. At that time, you can polish and trim them a little bit, and they will become ice lumps. Beautiful ice lanterns of different sizes.

At that time, the small ice lanterns can be tied with ropes for the wife to carry out to play, and the slightly larger ones can be placed in every corner of the yard. It will be very beautiful after being lit at night.

After Han Li had frozen all the utensils in his house, he took out the key to He Mi's house and went over there to make ice lanterns.

Han Li waited for the freezing process to pass the time by reading a book, and more than four hours had passed in the blink of an eye.

Many ice lanterns were placed in the corners of Han Li's house and He Mi's house. Due to the limitation of materials, there are only two kinds of ice lanterns: red and transparent.

The candles that Han Li obtained in Sijiu City are now available. He put candles in all the ice lamps, and put some candles in He Mi's house for backup.

After finishing all this, Han Li sat back in front of the table and picked up the teacup and drank the tea slowly.

Not long after, the chirping voices of the group of female educated youths came from outside.

Almost everyone else went back to their homes, and the Yun family sisters brought He Mi, Qi Zhaodi and Hou Yuhua to their home.

At first they really didn't notice the ice lantern in the yard, but they found it at the door when Yun Jingjing ran to the toilet.

"Is this an ice lantern?"

"Ice lamp?"

"Really, there are a lot of ice lanterns in the yard."

"This must have been made by Brother Li at home today."

"It must be beautiful if all of them are lit at night."

When they looked at the ice lanterns in the courtyard and talked in a hurry, Han Li came out of the house.

"When you come back from the cold weather, hurry up and go back to the kang to keep warm. It's never too late to look at the ice lamp when it's lit at night."

"Brother Li, did you do all this today?"

"Yeah, it's very simple to do this. You just need to watch the water so that it doesn't freeze. Don't we have the key to He Mi's house? I thought it was fun at the time, and I also froze their bucket. Ice lanterns, I also made several small ice lanterns that can be carried, you can carry them out to play together at night."

He Mi looked at Han Li with a smile and said nothing, while Hou Yuhua asked a little uncertainly.

"Brother Han, do I really have this portable lamp?"

"Well, I've made several and almost everyone has a share."

With new things, everyone is naturally looking forward to getting dark soon, and everyone gathers again after dinner.

Each of them held a red ice cube in their hands to make a sunken ice lamp, and lit candles inside to play with the children on the street.

But even if there is a sense of novelty, after all, a little older is not as good as a child's anti-freeze, and it does not have the tireless excitement of children, so everyone dispersed after playing for a while.

After returning home, Han Li went out for a walk with the dog. He wanted to see if he could find a chance to communicate with He Mi alone.
