Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 78
Seeing the fire, Qin Huairu finally showed a smile on his face, wrapped his hands tightly in the fur coat, walked over tremblingly, and gathered around the fire.

Put your hands next to the fire, and when the cold wind blows, it is not as cold as before, which is unbearable.

Chu Xiangqian didn't have time to say more, took a hunting knife, chopped off several dead branches in a row, and piled them on the fire.

Only then did I feel relieved to look for something to build a zero-hour shelter from the wind.

After thinking for a few seconds, it is impossible to build a complete simple wooden house.

We can only find a suitable terrain, use the principle of triangle, and build a shelf with more than a dozen branches of different thicknesses.

Then I found a pine tree, cut off a lot of branches with pine needles and spread them on the shelf, and then piled snow on it.

In just ten minutes, a triangular shelter with shelter from the wind on both sides was built.

If you move the fire in, be careful not to overheat the fire, the temperature inside must be much higher than outside.

The wind will also be much less.

After Qin Huairu went in, he continued to improve the shelter, so he would have time to help her dry her cotton shoes and clothes.

Seeing this, Qin Huairu's eyes lit up.

Although Chu Xiangqian's overcoat was on and there was a fire, the cotton shoes and trousers were still as cold as ice.

No more taking off wet clothes and feeling like my toes and legs are freezing to death.

Chu Xiangqian built a fire in the shelter, walked up to Qin Huairu and said, "Sister Qin, go inside to warm up and give me your wet clothes. I'll dry them outside for you."

Qin Huairu's face turned red when she heard this, but the chill from the wet clothes left her no time to think about it.

It's just that he squatted for too long and was very cold. As soon as his legs softened when he got up, Chu Xiangqian hugged him.

Chu Xiangqian simply picked her up, sent her to the shelter, and said, "You should be able to last quite a while wrapped in my coat and warmed up by the fire.

I'm sealing the two ends of this wind shelter so that there will be no air leakage, and it will be much warmer inside.

After the cotton-padded clothes and shoes are dry, I should be able to go back to my hometown before dark in the afternoon. "

Qin Huairu kept thanking her gratefully.

Not long after, Qin Huairu's voice came from the shelter, and he saw a bare arm stretched out holding a pair of cotton trousers.

Chu Xiangqian didn't even bother to look at Tubulaji's cotton clothes, he wore cotton pants with a tree trunk, and put them beside the fire.

Then I heard a voice from the shelter, "Xiao Chu, come in too. You gave me your coat, you will definitely freeze to death if you stay outside."

Chu Xiangqian was taken aback, secretly thinking that Qin Huairu still has a conscience.

He looked at the cotton trousers beside the fire. It was snowing and roasting. After the snowflakes fell on the cotton trousers and melted, they couldn't dry any more.

I found a lot of pine branches and blocked the two vents, and then I entered the shelter, and it quickly warmed up inside.

It's just that the next two people are embarrassed.

Because they have to bake clothes, the two can only stay together.

Don't look at Qin Huairu tightly wrapped in a fur coat, but it must be naked inside.

The two could only chat while looking for something to say, while waiting for the clothes to dry.

It's a pity that the wet cotton clothes are not so easy to dry, let alone cotton shoes are more difficult to dry than cotton clothes.

Not long after, Qin Huairu's stomach suddenly gurgled.

Chu Xiangqian knew that she was hungry, so he said, "I'm hungry too after walking all morning. I'll go outside to try my luck and see if I can get a pheasant, a hare or something."

When Qin Huairu thought of being alone in the woods, she held Chu Xiangqian in fear, "Qianqian, there are flour and stick noodles in my sister's bag.

Let's bake some dough and eat it. "

But after finishing speaking, seeing Chu Xiangqian put his head away in embarrassment, he immediately reacted, and when he looked down, he saw that it was a leak.

The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous.

Qin Huairu was flustered, worried that Chu Xiangqian had other thoughts.

Quickly changed the subject, "Xiao Chu, my sister is going back to her mother's house in this snowy day. I really can't live in the city. I want to ask my parents to help me. You are a single man, and you don't lack food and money. Why do you go back to the forest farm in the snow?"

Chu Xiangqian was thinking about the mountain peak he saw by accident just now, and he was still thinking about how talented this woman is.

After giving birth to two children, the mountain is still soaring into the sky, and it seems that he has not had enough food for a long time, and his lower abdomen is also very slender.

It makes people feel hot just thinking about it.

Hearing Qin Huairu's question, he thought for a while before saying, "I went hunting in the mountains this time to help someone hunt a wild boar and exchange him for an apprentice job."

Qin Huairu was stunned for a moment, and immediately ignored the embarrassment, regardless of the fact that the wages of apprentices and temporary workers were only a few dollars apart.

But becoming an apprentice is actually equivalent to preparing for a regular job. Some units only give household registration after three years of apprenticeship.

But there are also some units, the leader nodded and simply gave the other party the city's household registration in advance.

But just thinking about Chu Xiangqian's words, since he got the job in exchange for a wild boar, then he has the ability to settle the household registration together.

Thinking about the matter of household registration again, Jia's family had thought of many ways, and at the same time, they didn't know how many times they begged Yi Zhonghai.

It's a pity that the final outcome is always disappointing.

Needless to say, it must be that Yi Zhonghai did not want the Jia family to live a good life.

Otherwise, why would Jia Dongxu and Jia Zhang think about taking care of him?
While Qin Huairu was envious in her heart, she secretly thought that if she had a job, not only would she have enough rations, but she would also not have to be made things difficult and scolded by Jia Zhang everywhere.

My heart can't help but be confused.

Just let her talk to Chu Xiangqian about work, not to mention that Jia's family doesn't have that much money.

Even if she gritted her teeth and endured the cheapness of Chu Xiangqian once, not to mention whether Chu Xiangqian was willing to give up a few hundred yuan just because of the quickness, and she didn't know how to deal with it just because she lived in the same yard.

Although Chu Xiangqian also wanted to be Prime Minister Cao, he knew that Qin Huairu was different from Lou Xiaoe.

Never take the initiative, let alone use force.

In the future, when you reject her, you will have more confidence.

The two briefly ate some baked dough, but Qin Huairu's mood became more and more uncomfortable.

The flour and cornmeal in the satchel have long since entered the water, so it is no problem to eat, but it is difficult to preserve.

If you exchange sweet potatoes with someone who has made a mess of paste, not only will the price be lowered, but it is also a question of whether they are willing to exchange it.

And Chu Xiangqian thought that Qin Huairu brought food back to her mother's house to honor her parents.

Still thinking in my heart, the life of the Jia family at this time is actually not bad.

Otherwise, where would there be any surplus food to give to the father-in-law.

The thought in my heart was quickly suppressed.

Since there is no shortage of food, the belt will naturally not be loose.

I went out to cut firewood several times on the way, and finally dried the clothes.

Seeing that it was getting late, the two left the shelter silently and headed towards Qin's Village.

At the entrance of the village, Chu Xiangqian was unwilling to enter the village.

After all, if she wants to be famous, Qin Huairu must be more afraid of rumors.

What he didn't expect was that after walking a mile, he heard footsteps behind him.
