Chapter 673 Enthusiastic Folks!

When the convoy arrived at Nianzishan Village, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.

They walked for nearly seven hours on a journey of more than 300 kilometers!
The reason why it took so long to walk was mainly because after entering Qingshan County, the snow on the road did not melt. The car could not go very fast while driving in half a foot of snow.

When he returned to the village, Li Yi saw the village covered in silver.

Because the snow had just stopped and most of it had not yet melted away, there was snow everywhere in the fields, on rooftops, and on some less traveled paths.

After the heavy snowfall, Nianzishan Village seemed a little quiet. Maybe it was because it was too cold, so there was not a single person on the street.

Except for the light smoke drifting from the chimneys of every house, the whole village showed no signs of life, and the scene seemed to be frozen.

After entering the village, Li Yi asked the bus driver and the truck behind him to send Feng Kai, Zhang Tongfu and others back one by one, while everyone in the Li family rushed to the new house.

Soon, the convoy arrived at the Li family's new house.

After getting off the car, Li Yi, who was wearing a down jacket, couldn't help but shiver.

Good guy, it’s too cold here, I’m afraid it’s at least minus 35 degrees.

Even though the latitude is about the same as that of Beijing and the distance from Beijing is only over 300 kilometers, the temperature is at least five degrees different.

On the one hand, big cities have their own greenhouse effect, and on the other hand, Nianzishan Village is located on the north wind outlet. The Siberian cold current brought by strong winds every year can freeze the place into another world.

Stomping his feet, Li Yi took out the key and prepared to open the door.

However, when he walked to the gate, he was shocked by the scene in the yard.

I saw half a foot of snow outside the yard, but the Li family's yard was clean, with not a single snowflake visible. It had obviously been carefully cleaned.

At this time, Li Shankui also got out of the car. Seeing Li Yi stunned at the door and making no movement, he immediately came over and asked: "What are you doing standing there stupidly? Why don't you open the door?"

Li Yi came to his senses immediately and said to his father while opening the door: "Dad, look in the yard!"

Li Shankui looked up and was stunned.

"It should be the little one who cleans the house. When we left, we left him the key to the house and asked him to help take care of the house and feed the animals!"

At this time, Li Yi said while opening the door: "That should be him!"

After the door opened, Li Shankui said again: "Xiao Yi, go and open the door. I'll go to the woodshed to get some flax firewood and corn kernels. I have to turn up the stove quickly, otherwise the children won't be able to stand it when they come in!"

Li Yi also knows that if no one lives in the house for a long time, it will become cold and damp.

Especially in winter, even if there is no fire for one day, the house will become like an ice cellar.

"Okay, then I'll go in first!"

With that said, Li Yi walked towards the yard!
Opening the door, the room was indeed like a cold storage. Even though he was wearing a down jacket and thick cotton pants, Li Yi still felt the cold air penetrate into his clothes.

Li Yi immediately picked up the feather duster and briefly swept the dust on the kang. Then he took out two mattresses from the quilt pile and spread them on the kang to prevent the children from coming in and playing on the kang later.

Just when Li Yi was about to pick up Jiang Xue and the children outside, his old father Li Shankui walked in carrying a basket of corn cores and a handful of flax firewood.

As soon as he entered the door, he said: "There is a lot of chopped wood over there in the woodshed. It must have been sent here by Little Dog. That kid is really kind and righteous."

Hearing his father's words, Li Yi was also quite moved.

Although sweeping the yard and sending some firewood is not a big deal, it can be seen that the puppy remembers his kindness, and this is enough.

"Dad, you turn on the stove, and I'll go outside and get the kids in!"

"Wait a minute, it's too cold in the house. Let's let the children stay in the car for a while before entering the house!"

Then Li Shankui said again: "Call your mother and your second sister in first, and ask them to cook for everyone quickly. I'm already hungry just thinking about it!" "Okay"

After struggling for more than ten minutes, the stove in the house finally started to light up, and my mother and second sister also boiled half a pot of boiling water.

Forced by the heat in the pot, the room suddenly became much warmer, and Li Yi brought Jiang Xue, the eldest sister and several children in.

At the same time, Zhang Ziqiang, Zhang Feng and the drivers responsible for driving were invited to the house.

After inviting everyone to drink water, my mother and her second sister prepared meals in the kitchen.

Now everyone is so hungry that they don't have time to make anything too complicated. After some discussion, my mother decided to make local pot noodles for everyone.

While his mother and second sister were busy in the kitchen, Li Yi heard the familiar sound of bells coming from outside the door.

Li Yi immediately pushed the door open and walked out. Sure enough, he saw a slightly thin figure pulling a mule and a horse into the yard.

The person coming is none other than Little Dog!
After seeing Li Yi, Xiao Xiaowa immediately strode over and said happily: "I knew it was you who came back, Brother Yi. Others don't have such a big battle!"

"Are you going to walk the mules and horses?"

"Well, it snowed all day yesterday, but I didn't take them out. Today, when the snow stopped, I thought of taking them out for a walk. Big animals can't be tied up in a pen every day!" Little Dog said.

Looking at Xiaochouwa's thin face and slightly thin clothes, Li Yi sighed and said: "In such a cold weather, you are not afraid of freezing!"

"It's okay, Brother Yi, you're used to it"

Just as he was talking, the big red mule behind the puppy let out a "whispering" sound, then passed the puppy and walked to Li Yi, and kept rubbing its big head on Li Yi. It looked very cute. happy.

Li Yi immediately laughed and said, "You still remember me!"

With that said, Li Yi took the reins of the big red mule from Xiao Xiaowa's hand, and then walked towards the horse pen on the side.

After tying up the mules and horses, the two of them added some hay to the troughs of the two large animals before returning to the house.

However, as soon as Li Yi and Xiao Xiaowa entered the house, someone else came outside the door.

Taking a closer look, it turned out that Dongzi's mother was here, carrying a big iron basin in her hand, and Jingzi by her side.

When Li Yi saw this, he immediately greeted him!
"Sister-in-law, Xiaojing, why are you here!"

"I heard from Da Lei that you haven't eaten yet. Fried cakes have just been fried at home, so I brought them to you and let the guests try our Nianzishan fried cakes!"

Li Yi also knew Dong Ziniang's temper, so he was not polite. He immediately said with a smile: "Hahaha, I am worried about what to eat. Thank you sister-in-law. Let's sit in the room."

Dong Ziniang handed the basin of fried cakes to Li Yi's hand and said at the same time: "You have guests at home, so my sister-in-law will not go in. I will come back to see you later!"

After saying that, without waiting for Li Yi to speak, she took Jingzi and walked outside!

What Li Yi didn't expect was that this was just the beginning.

Shortly after Dongzi's mother left, Qiangzi's father came over and brought two fat hares and two pheasants to Li Yi.

Then, Juan Ziniang also came and brought a basket of eggs to Li Yi.

Immediately after the landing, people from the village came over one after another. Everyone was in a tacit understanding and did not enter the house when they arrived. They just put down their things and left.

After a while, the floor of Li Yi's house was filled with gifts from the villagers, all of which were all kinds of delicious food. Zhang Ziqiang, Zhang Feng and others looked stunned.

Li Yi was also deeply moved by the actions of the villagers. Even though these things seemed worthless, they were good things that these simple villagers were reluctant to eat.

Now they gave all these things to him, which made Li Yi's heart warm.
