Hard work

Chapter 277 Winter

In winter, fewer villagers in Aozi Village go outside.They are like bears that spend the winter in a cave, and they hardly come out of the house.Even if I come out for a while, I just think about how to find something to eat.Usually it's like really hibernating, and I don't come out of the house at all.

Zang Lang and Gai Hua would go outside occasionally, but they only dragged a little firewood from nearby villages to start a fire, and they stopped going into the deep mountains.

As for looking for food and so on, the people of the Zhao family didn't do that anymore.

According to what Yan Dalang said, the animals at this time don't grow fat anymore, and they just sleep and consume, and there is nothing delicious to catch.The plants don't grow even more, and even if you go to the back, you can't catch anything to eat. It's better to let them live until the next spring, and catch them and eat them when the green and yellow are gone.

Lan Hua'er used to go to the back mountain in this season before, so she naturally knew what the situation in the back mountain was like at this time, so she didn't even think about going back.

The only one who still goes out frequently is probably Yang Langzhong.

Because the weather turned cold, many old people and children coughed, and he was so tired that he ran around outside every day, even with his dog eggs, running outside non-stop, without any time to rest.He complained a little at first, but later found out that it was snowing in winter, and even Zhao Mumian stopped going out, so he didn't say anything more.

He just stayed at home, and now besides reviewing his homework, he went to the back of the day to talk to Lei Lei.Since Zhao Mumian didn't go out, he had no chance to talk to Lei Lei again.In this way, whether he was dragged around by Yang Langzhong didn't have much influence on him.

Even Changwu doesn't go out much anymore.He originally agreed to live until the winter, and the money was paid at that time. Now, I don’t know whether it is because he dislikes the bad weather outside, or because he is used to living here. Later.

Lan Hua'er jokingly chased him away, but he actually took out another sum of money, making Lan Hua'er wonder how much money this man had hidden in him.If one day he was robbed, maybe a lot of them could be found.

This year's winter was extremely cold. As soon as the winter came, it snowed three times in a row, so that it almost hit people's knees.Many people were afraid that the roof would be crushed by the snow, so they braved the heavy snow to climb to the roof and sweep the snow off it.

The Zhao family's house was newly built not long ago.At that time, I asked Yan Dalang to build it myself. Naturally, it was reliable enough, and the people of the Zhao family didn't need to go outside.

But after thinking about it later, they don’t need to worry about their house, but Zhao Mumian’s behind is just a straw shed, barely enough to keep out the wind and rain, but now it’s snowing heavily, and the snow is blowing on the roof so Once pressed, not to mention how effective it is to prevent the cold, the weight of the snow alone is enough to make people worry.

What's more, Gaihua always feels that neither Zhao Mumian nor Lei Lei are very good at doing things, and they may never have lived by themselves.Now suddenly changed to such an environment, only the two siblings depend on each other, maybe they don't know how to sweep the snow off the roof.

At that time, if something really happens, no matter whether people are fine or not, the bad ones will always be their Zhao family.

If there is death, there is no need to pass this year's year.Now the members of the family don't know where they are, they are Zhao Mumian's only relatives at the moment, and they will not be asked to deal with this matter at home.

It's just that people are fine, but the house has collapsed, so it's still the same trouble.The weather like this cannot make people fall asleep outside in the open air, they have to pick up their family.Regarding this matter, no one in the Zhao family agreed.

Thinking about it this way, Gaihua could only call Zang Lang, and the two of them went to the thatched shed at the back to see what was going on in the thatched shed.If it really doesn't work, the two big men can only help sweep the snow from the thatched shed.

Gaihua was just worried at first, but he didn't expect that when they passed by, the thatched hut was almost unable to hold up.Because too much snow fell on the roof, the whole thatched shed seemed to be crumbling, and even the beams and columns inside were making groaning noises, as if they were about to collapse at any moment.

Zhao Mumian and Lei Lei didn't know whether they really didn't understand these things, or they didn't want to do it.The thatched hut seemed to be dying, but the two of them just pulled each other tightly and hugged each other in a daze and panic, sitting on the kang inside the thatched hut.Naturally, firewood was burning inside the kang - although the two siblings did not live in the Zhao family, the Zhao family did not treat them badly.Knowing that they are not good at living, every time Gaihua and Zang Lang go to the mountains to collect firewood, they will share some with Zhao Mumian.It's just that Zang Lang doesn't want to go to the thatched shed behind alone anymore, and everything else is fine.

Gaihua looked at Zhao Mumian and Lei Lei like this at the time, but she was really scared enough.

If the thatched hut was really crushed by the snow, the snow on top might not be able to crush the sparks below.Once it is about to burn, the people who are crushed below are probably hopeless.No matter how much Zhao Mumian pretended, he guessed that he couldn't take his own life like this, probably because he really didn't know what was going on.

Without another word, Gaihua took Zang Lang to set up a ladder, and worked hard to clear all the snow from the roof of the thatched shed.

Zang Lang is silent, and he really doesn't want to see Zhao Mumian.After cleaning up, Yu Gaihua could only tell Zhao Mumian to pay more attention to herself and not let the snow pile up too much on the roof of the thatched shed.

Zhao Mumian lowered his head slightly and listened, not sure if he had listened to the words, but just sat silently, and looked at Zang Lang sadly, and then told Gaihua, "I don't even have anyone... I clear the snow myself?"

Gaihua choked on her, and found that there was indeed only one woman and one sock in her house, so she rubbed her hands together.He doesn't know what Zhao Mumian is doing behind the scenes. Although he doesn't like Zhao Mumian as the one who hurt the orchid, he doesn't hate it very much. In the end, he can only say that if the snow is too heavy, he will come to help clean it up. .

After talking like this for a while, when they went home, both of them were already shivering with cold.

They had already poured snow all over outside, but when they went to talk to Zhao Mumian in the thatched shed, because the house was warmer, the snow on their heads and clothes melted into water and froze outside again.Afterwards, when I came back home, the clothes on my body were about to freeze to ice, so I was naturally shivering from the cold.

Lan Hua'er frowned immediately when she saw the appearance of the two men, "Why did you make it like this? I asked you to put on coir raincoats. It's just lazy. Now it's good, you're so wet that you don't look like it. It's just going to Sweeping the snow, as for this. Have you drank ginger soup later?"

"No," Gaihua shook her head while taking off her clothes, "She probably won't be able to make ginger soup then."

"Look at what you said, there's no ginger soup, don't you even have hot water?" Lan Hua'er frowned when she saw the two of them, "You...forget it, I won't say anything. Hurry up I changed all the clothes and put them in the basin, and I will wash them later. Change into clean clothes, and I will cook some ginger soup later. You two must not be sick. It is very tiresome to take care of you two."

Gaihua smiled and agreed, Zang Lang didn't speak, but nodded, and went back to his room silently to change all the clothes that were close to him.

Lan Hua'er then sulked again.

She didn't mind that Gaihua and Zang Lang went to help Zhao Mumian later.After all, these two are men, since they are idle at home, of course they have to run to do some things.But the Zhao family didn't mean that they owed Zhao Mumian, they had to do something for her.In the past, I helped out, just for the sake of relatives, and felt that the two siblings were really pitiful.

Just don't go to help, is there something wrong.

But now Zhao Mumian seems to think that this is as it should be.

Gaihua and Zang Lang went to help later, but she didn't say thank you, but seemed to feel that they didn't help enough.

She really wanted to stop talking to Zhao Mumian, whether Zhao Mumian was dead or alive, what did it have to do with them--unfortunately, it really did.Zhao Mumian has now settled down in the village, so he is half of the village.Everyone in the village knew about Zhao Mumian's relationship with them.Regardless of whether Zhao Mumian is dead or alive, they are all relatives of their family.

"Where does such a person come from, who feels like a princess, and everyone else owes her. Mary Sue, the big Mary Sue."

Lan Hua'er complained while cooking ginger soup, because she was so angry that she stoked the fire too vigorously, and after a long time, a pot of ginger soup mixed with burnt smell came out.

She could only say that this was to make the fire more intense for the two of them to drive out the cold, and she silently covered it up.

Fortunately, neither Gaihua nor Zang Lang would laugh at her, so they drank the ginger soup without saying anything.

However, even Gaihua with such a good temper can probably feel that Zhao Mumian's attitude is really uncomfortable.If it is not necessary, he will not go to the thatched hut in the back.Before what to eat at home, he still thought about whether to send some to the thatched shed in the back, but now he would even talk about whether to send some to Tiesheng, and did not mention Zhao Mumian anymore.

Lan Hua'er is naturally happy about such a change.

People like Zhao Mumian don't know thank you at all, so it's not worth their hot face to put a cold butt on them.
