Shitou was frightened and subconsciously blocked his body with a gourd and gourd. He looked at her at the door in confusion.

She was even more at a loss.

Who would have thought that Shitou would be taking a bath at home alone with his cat!

"Go on"

Close the door quickly.

Hey, something's wrong!

Why isn’t the water in the stone bath steaming?

Could it be that he was crazy and bathed in cold water.

She was crazier than Shi Shi. She turned around and opened the door again. Shi Shi, who had just put on his underwear, was startled again.

"You, wait"

"Wait a minute." She took a few steps to the edge of the big basin and reached out to scoop up a handful. Sure enough, it was cold water, even with ice.

"Are you sick?" She said angrily while shaking off the water on her hand: "Don't you want to heat up hot water for washing? In the winter, you use cold water, so you are not afraid of freezing and catching a cold!"

Shi Shi hunched his shoulders and lowered his head without saying a word. The water droplets that had not been wiped off slid down his skin, making him look very cold.

She scolded her without making a sound, and her fists seemed to be hitting the cotton forever. She was really angry.

Looking at his pitiful appearance, he couldn't get angry.

He sighed suddenly and said helplessly: "Hurry up and put on your clothes. What are you waiting for?"

Shitou got dressed obediently.

They are old clothes from the inside out, but they are all washed very clean. Even the cufflinks and front of the cotton-padded jacket, which are the areas that should be the hardest hit by children's dirty clothes, are also clean. They don't look like a child without adult care at all. The hygienic state that children should have.

"Don't you heat hot water for washing clothes?" she asked in a low voice.

Shitou glanced at her cautiously and replied softly: "After cooking, if there is still a fire in the stove, burn some. If there is no fire, use cold water."

"Even if you don't cook, you still have to burn the kang. Why don't you boil water when you burn the kang?" Is there something wrong with her understanding or with Shitou's expression?

He pulled open the stone at the door and walked into the inner room, stretched out his hand to touch the kang, and pulled out the cold.

The weather is ten or twenty degrees below zero without a kang, even if it is covered with a thick quilt!
She looked at the stone in disbelief: "Why not burn the kang?"

There is also a pile of firewood in the yard. Even if it is not enough to burn as usual, it will not be much worse. It is not so economical at all.

"Tell the truth!" she warned seriously.

Shitou looked at her and said in a low voice: "The kang is blocked, it doesn't heat up and it's still smoking."

No wonder.
Smoking makes him feel uncomfortable, so he doesn't even light the stove except for cooking.

Many families will open a kang hole before winter. They are afraid that the hole will be blocked and the kang will not be hot and smoke will be trapped all winter long.

After all, Shitou is still a child. If the kang hole is not blocked, there is no way he can open the kang hole.

At this time of year, if you really want to dig a hole in the kang, where will the rocks live?Just setting up a wooden board in the outhouse is really not as good as sleeping on a cold bed.

Shitou probably took this into consideration so he didn't tell anyone else. He would deal with this winter first, and when spring gets warmer next year, he would ask the village to help him with the kang.

"Pack up and come with me. Go to my house to live with my eldest brother and the others for a few days. You can come back and live there when the kang hole is connected here." She decided decisively.

It is not suitable to stay in Changjia for a long time, but it is still ok to stay for a few days.

After packing up, they first went to Cao Xingwang to explain the situation. After Cao Xingwang promised to take people to Tongkang Dongzi in the next two days, they went home together.

There was something she still couldn't figure out.

"Shitou, why do you have to take a shower on such a cold day with no hot water?" I couldn't think of asking directly.

Winter is dry and cold, and no matter how hot the water is, the exposed parts will still be very cold, so unless there are any special circumstances, no one really takes a bath in winter, so just wipe it with a hot towel.

"I told you not to be angry with me."

Hey, I still want to take a preemptive strike, but Little Stone is getting smarter and smarter.

"Okay, don't be angry." She promised.

"You said you won't play with children who have worms on them. I don't want to get lice." My heart seemed to have been hit by something. It didn't hurt but was uncomfortable.

The words I said casually just to scare him turned out to be true. I really don’t know whether to call him smart or stupid!
"Then how often do you take a shower?" she asked sternly.

Shitou replied: "Wash once a week."

"When the weather is warm, it's fine to wash once a week. But it's not okay now that it's so cold. You'll catch a cold. I don't like playing with sick children. You must take care of yourself. Don't be stupid and don't know how cold it is." Hot." She said patiently.

Shitou nodded in agreement and promised: "I promise not to get sick."

Children are children, there is no guarantee whether they will get sick or not!

When I went home, I told Chang Chunsheng and Mo Lan about Shi Shi. They both felt very sorry for Shi Shi. Without saying a word, they agreed to Shi Shi's temporary residence. They also specifically told Chang Chunsheng and Mo Lan that the boys at home were not allowed to bully Shi Shi.

In fact, there is no need to explain. Brothers and sisters have always been good to Shitou, so how could they bully him?

Not only are they not bullied, they will also think about rocks if there is anything fun or delicious to eat!

Zhao Guaizi's family next door bought a black and white TV, and they would pull up the stone every time they went back to watch it.

Nowadays, color TVs are popular outside. There are not many black and white TVs in the village, and adults and children are very curious about them.

They can receive one channel in total, and they can watch whatever they want. Even the advertisements can be watched with gusto.

At first, she was quite disgusted. She felt that they were wasting time. She might as well go home and read the newspaper while watching TV ads.

She went to see it twice and then changed her mind.

Watching advertisements is also a way to understand the world.

Gree air conditioner, Yan Automobile, Gordon Motorcycle
Many things that were originally abstract to village children have become concrete through advertising.

Of course, what they watch most is Xinwen Lianbo, which covers everything domestic and foreign. It is more intuitive and advanced than newspapers.

That night when they came back from Zhao Guaizi's house after watching the news, they were all very excited and chattering non-stop.

She ran over to join in the fun and asked what they were talking about.

Chang Wenle said excitedly: "Jiu'er, do you know about the Winter Olympics? It's where the best skating and skiing people in the world come together to compete. Our country's skaters won the silver medal. The news said it was our first Winter Olympics medal. It’s so awesome.”

As long as everything is linked to the number one, then the thief will be powerful.

She is not very interested in sports. She didn’t know much about it before her rebirth, and she doesn’t want to know much about it now.

So, she lay on the hot Kang and listened to her brothers and sisters without disturbing them.

Just saying no, they still want to go skating.

How can you skate like other people without skates?This is hard for them.

"I'll do it for you." The ingenious Stone interjected.

Chang Wenle didn't believe it: "Really? Do you know what to do?"

Shitou shook his head honestly: "I definitely can't make it exactly the same, but I can make one that is slippery on my feet like that."

Just do it.

The next morning, she was drowsily awakened by the rising and falling voices outside. When she got up, she saw that the "skates" of the stone had been completed and the boys were trying to skate.

This "ice skate" is very simple to make. Just refer to the ice skate. A board with the sole size is drilled on both sides and threaded with hemp rope. A vertical narrow support is installed at the bottom. The bicycle spokes are embedded under the support. When skating, just step on the board and pull the hemp rope. Just tie it tightly to your feet.

Chang Wenxi was the first to try. He couldn't even stand up, let alone slipping.

"Shitou, is there something wrong with your skates?" Chang Wenxi firmly refused to admit that it was his fault.

There seems to be something really wrong. Chang Wenle and Chang Wenping have tried it but the effect is not good.

She was afraid that Shi Shi would be discouraged and disappointed, so she stepped forward to encourage him and said, "It's okay, you've done a good job."

Shitou looked at the skates and shook his head thoughtfully: "It's definitely not that I didn't do well, it's that they skated wrong."
