When the two returned home, they saw Zhong Chuchu standing at the door and looking at it.

"Where have you two gone? You're still not back at this late hour."

Zhong Chuchu pretended to be angry and said:

"If you don't come home, I will go out to look for you. When I come back, I will teach you a lesson."

That's what she said, but her tone was clearly doting.

Ge Xingzhou felt warm in his heart. There were still people waiting for you to come home in the wind and snow. It felt so good.

The mother and son returned home together, and there was already food on the table.

"Go wash your hands and eat."

Zhong Chuchu took a basin of steaming water from the stove and helped the two children wash their hands.

Xiaobao sat obediently at the table, not moving his chopsticks, just smiling and waiting.

Today's dinner is simple but delicious.

Zhong Chuchu specially bought a bag of chicken essence at the Almighty Mall and put a little of it into vegetables. Even the simplest stir-fried vegetables were delicious.

After dinner, the two children clamored for her to continue telling the story of Journey to the West.

The story was wonderful, but it failed to put the children to sleep.

And every time she talked about a briefly mentioned plot, the two children, Dabao and Ge Xingzhou, would pester her to explain it more carefully.

Although she felt it was unnecessary, but seeing the hopeful expressions on the two children's faces, she still combined the original novel she had seen in her mind with the TV series and carefully described it.

The two children nodded and shook their heads for a while, and even asked more than ten questions in a row when they talked about the wonderful points.

No matter how slow Zhong Chuchu was, she still noticed something was wrong.

"Tell me, what do you want to do?"

The two of them were discussing the plot in full swing. When they suddenly heard her ask this question, they immediately calmed down and hesitated, not knowing how to speak.

Finally, Dabao hesitated and said:

"Mom, I told this story to my classmates at the college before. Everyone liked it. Xingzhou and I just want to listen more carefully and tell it to them after school starts."

What he said was so evasive that even Zhong Chuchu couldn't fault it.

"Well, even so, it's too late now, you should still go to bed early."

She said seriously:
"Staying up late is not a good habit. Sleep time is so precious!"

She said these words without blushing, not thinking about the time she stayed up late to watch videos.

"Just cover yourself up and go to bed now. If you have any questions, we'll talk about it tomorrow day."

The north wind is howling, and heavy snow has been falling for several days.

A thick layer of snow has accumulated on the ground throughout the town.

Zhong Chuchu was going to fetch water from the only well in the town early this morning.

As soon as I arrived at the well, I heard a woman talking loudly.

"I went to the river early this morning to wash clothes. Guess what?"

The curious person asked: "What happened? Did you encounter a water ghost?"

"Ah! You just met a water ghost, and you also met a starving ghost!"

"Hahaha……"

People queuing up to get water all around laughed.

"Big Cowgirl, tell me quickly, what's going on?"

someone asked.

“The Yongding River is frozen!”

The big cowgirl didn't show off and said directly:
"Do you think it's strange? The last time the Yongding River froze was 30 years ago. I remember I was only 12 years old that year. The winter that year was so cold that half the people in the village died!"

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but shudder.

Everyone around him was silent, but his heart was filled with fear.

They have all heard about this.

Some older people still remember it vividly.

That year, the hundred-foot-wide Yongding River froze overnight.

Most of the old people and newborn babies in the entire town failed to survive that winter.

The sky that year seemed to be colored with blood.

From then on, people had to prepare enough food and wild vegetables before winter, for fear that someone would starve to death again. However, the river has frozen again this year. Will this be another disaster year?
The villagers who were joking just now no longer have smiles on their faces.

Zhong Chuchu was the last one in line. Just as she was about to pull up the bucket from the well, someone came up from behind her and naturally took the rope from her hand.

She turned around and saw that the person coming was Qin Ye.

He is back?

This person has been in the mountains for more than a month.

Something like that happened to Boss Lin before, and she was worried about him.

It's just that I was too busy, so I forgot about it.

She took a closer look at him, and saw that he was much leaner, and the contours of his face were more resolute.

"You're back?"

She didn't know what to say.

"Ah."

Qin Ye's answer was brief.

"Is it all right?"

she asked:
"You didn't encounter any danger when you entered the mountain this time, right?"

"Well, it went well. I just encountered a brown bear and solved it by the way."

He said this calmly.

Zhong Chuchu didn't know how to answer the call for a while.

The two walked in tandem.

When he was approaching Zhong's house, Qin Ye finally spoke again:

"Thanks to your knife and medicine, I was able to obtain the bear bile so smoothly this time. I came here to say goodbye to you. I have to leave for a while."

When he said this, his expression turned not very good.

"If something happens to you, go to Mo Yu and he will help you."

After speaking, he took out a jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Zhong Chuchu.

"Take it, if you encounter something that Mo Yu can't solve, just take this out."

He explained everything in detail, and his concern and worry were palpable.

Zhong Chuchu didn't want to accept it, but he seemed to have expected it.

Without waiting for her to refuse, he directly put the jade pendant in her hand.

Zhong Chuchu thought for a moment and said, forget it, since someone else gave it to you, just keep it.

It seems that this jade pendant is really valuable. Who would refuse an extra amulet?
"will you come back?"

she asked softly.

"Yes, definitely."

He said a few words sonorously and forcefully.

She didn't spend much time with Qin Ye, but he always helped her unconditionally.

Although it may have been motivated by sex, at least the help was genuine and he never did anything to hurt her.

Zhong Chuchu thought, let nature take its course.

"Then have a safe trip and pay more attention to your safety."

Her calm and generous look made Qin Ye smile a little:
"When I come back next time, I will take you out to have a look. This Qingyan Town is too small."

"Well, maybe when you come back, I'll have gone out to see the world outside by myself!"

The free and easy way she said this made Qin Ye a little impressed.

The woman who can say these words is still No. 1!
The hasty meeting was short.

Qin Ye seemed to be in a hurry. After walking her to the door of his house, he left in a hurry.

When Zhong Chuchu returned home, she took out the jade pendant given by Qin Ye and looked at it carefully.

On the front of the jade pendant are some cloud-pattern reliefs, in the middle is a unicorn mythical beast, and on the back is the word Qin engraved.

There is nothing special about it, except that the jade pendant is of excellent quality.

She called up the system panel and silently chanted "Exchange."
