In the warm room.

Xu Dahai peeled the pine nuts and ate them. The more he ate, the more delicious they became. After hearing what his grandfather said, he glanced at the hand-torn calendar card.

November 1986, 11, Saturday, the 22th solar term of light snow.

"It's already here, and it must be cold in Guanli, but no matter how cold it is, it's definitely much warmer than our hometown.

Besides, my brother has a lot of thick clothes, so there’s no need to worry. "

Xu Dahai threw a handful of pine nut shells into the dustpan, making a soft sound.

"After all, your brother goes to school so far away, and he doesn't know what he usually eats. When the weather gets cold, do you know if you should wear more clothes...

Last night, your grandma was also talking about him.

I said I should write him a letter, and it would be even better if I could send him a cotton-padded jacket along with it. Your grandma also made him a cotton-padded jacket..."

Grandpa sat on the edge of the kang, smoking a dry cigarette.

"Want to send letters and cotton-padded jackets? That's easy. You can send them in our hometown once they're sorted."

……

Grandpa is getting older and his eyesight is not so good.

So Xu Dahai took out a piece of letter paper, filled the Venus pen with ink, and let him write.

Grandpa stood watching beside him, clasping his hands behind his back, dictating what he wanted to write.

What you need to write are some greetings - asking what you usually eat, whether you are tired from studying, whether you are short of anything, and whether you will go home for the New Year this year, etc.

“Is that all you’re going to write?”

Xu Dahai stopped writing and turned to look at his grandfather.

Although grandpa is quite old, he is very energetic. His many years of military service have allowed him to develop many habits, and his waist is still straight.

"That's almost it. What else should I write?"

"Tell me about the current situation of our family?"

"Yes, yes, you should also write about this."

After you finish writing the letter, carefully fold it and stuff it into the envelope. Write the receiving and sending addresses, contact name, etc., and then paste the stamp on it.

The stamp is a monkey stamp.

Xu Dahai knew that the full version of the Monkey Ticket would be worth some money in the future, just a few million, and many houses in the county would be worth millions in the future...

He felt that the value of the monkey ticket was not high, and he didn't like the style of painting, so he simply stopped tinkering with it.

Early the next morning.

Xu Dahai took the letter and cotton-padded jacket to the countryside to mail them. Time passed to the afternoon five days later. Xu Dahai was leisurely eating frozen pears and watching TV series at home.

Sparkling~

The postman rode over on a [-]-inch pole, braved the wind and snow, and brought not only a large roll of newspapers, but also a reply from his third brother Xu Dashu, as well as a few sweaters bought from Yanjing.

After signing for receipt.

The postman wearing a military green coat opened his mouth and let out a long puff of white air, then stepped on the heavy [-]-meter pole and left directly.

The sparkling sound gradually faded away and was gradually drowned by the sound of wind and snow, leaving only clear ruts on the ground.

Xu Dahai returned to the house with his things and said to Wang Xiuxiu who was stewing the flying dragon:

"There's a scent wafting out. It's almost ready!?"

"Yeah, it's almost time. We haven't had a flying dragon for a long time."

Wang Xiuxiu wore an apron and used her little fingers to gather the hair around her ears.

His face was full of tenderness, and there were some beads of sweat on the tip of his nose:

"Who sent this?"

"Third brother sent it. I'll take the things to grandma and the others first."

"Well, go and come back quickly. Xiao Tingzi will be back from school soon. We will eat then."

Xu Dahai took his things to his grandfather's yard, entered the house, and handed the letter directly to his grandfather.

Grandpa was very happy and asked when the letter was sent back. He put on his reading glasses, carefully tore open the envelope and looked at the contents on the letter paper.

The letter said something about the current situation of the third brother - in fact, every day consists of attending classes, eating, and sleeping. Their study tasks are very, very heavy.

This is the trend, everyone is trying to get back those lost years.

Not only are the leaders of the college and teachers admonishing them, but many college students themselves feel that if they don’t study hard, they will be failing the country and the cultivation of the people...

In addition, I also asked about the situation at home.

Then there are four sweaters - one for grandma and one for each of parents.

Grandma also hurried to the back room, touching the dark sweater, full of joy, but she still said:

"This sweater is much more beautiful than the one we knitted ourselves, and the pattern is also nice. How did they knit it? It just feels not as thick as the one we knitted ourselves."

Grandpa lit another pot of sweat smoke, sat down firmly on the chair and started smoking:

"This sweater is certainly not cheap. Hey, we don't have any shortage of sweaters at home. What a waste of money."

"It's just a child's wish. Try it on and see if it looks good."

With a smile on her face, grandma stretched out her sweater and asked grandpa to try it on, but the latter twisted around and refused to wear it.

Xu Dahai laughed loudly.

It was getting late, and the red light of the setting sun filtered through the windows, illuminating part of the walls and roof.

He didn't stay long and returned home with his jumping dogs, just in time to see Xiao Tingzi lying on the counter doing her homework.

"Have you finished your homework? Let's eat."

"There is another ancient poem! Just copy it twice!" Xiao Tingzi hurriedly wrote, rustling, the tip of the pencil scratched across the book, making bursts of sounds.

"Meow~"

The big, fat orange cat was lying on the left side of her book, its belly bulging. Occasionally, its fluffy little paws would pounce on the tip of the pen twice, which was just a shame.

After Xiao Tingzi finished her homework, she started to cook.

Rice, stewed dragon, salted duck eggs, fried pork slices with dried beans and radish soup.

It seems simple, but if a flying dragon eats it, it is enough to be worth other big fish and meat.

The lights were soft, the TV was turned on and the news was listened to, and the family of three ate happily.

"Xiao Tingzi, is the flying dragon meat delicious?" Wang Xiuxiu pursed her lips and smiled. Seeing her daughter eating happily, she was also very happy:

"This is the flying dragon that your grandpa mentioned before. I said no, but your grandpa said to keep it and help Xiao Tingzi recuperate."

"Delicious! It's delicious!"

The little girl's cheeks were bulging, her big eyes were curved into crescent moons, her face was full of happiness, and she couldn't speak clearly.

"Meow~"

The big orange cat wagged the tip of its tail and humped the little girl with its big furry head. She also wanted to eat the flying dragon meat.

The little girl picked up a piece of flying dragon meat and wanted to hand it to the cat, but she felt a chill coming over her and turned her head to meet Wang Xiuxiu's eyes.

"A good thing like flying dragon meat is not enough for people to eat. If you dare to feed the cat, it will be over if I beat you."

"Hehe, hehe~ I'll feed her bones."

The little girl was startled, and it hurt even if her mother slapped her on her body.

Xu Dahai was amused.

The mother and daughter ate the Feilong meat next. He picked up a chopstick and stir-fried the meat with dried beans and took a sip of wine. It was so refreshing~

The cold wind outside the window became stronger again, ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

After dinner.

After changing the channel on the TV, there was nothing good to watch, so Wang Xiuxiu suggested that she go to Xiaotingzi's second grandmother's courtyard to visit her.

It was still early to go to bed, so Xu Dahai readily agreed.

"Wear thicker clothes. It's windy outside and it's quite cold."

Xiao Tingzi was dressed like a fat penguin, and the family of three quickly set off.
