The night is deep, the cold wind outside the window is howling and whining; the candlelight inside the house is swaying, and it is as warm as spring.

My wife, Wang Xiuxiu, is becoming more and more plump and charming. Her figure is as slim as a ripe peach.

Especially when Xu Dahai looked at him with a pair of adoring eyes, he felt very benefited.

He quickly took a copy of "The Legend of Five Generations of Heroes" from the window sill, opened the pages, and began to tell the story inside.

"The background of the story is the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, which is about 1100 years ago. The protagonist..."

Not only was Wang Xiuxiu holding her chin with her right hand, she was listening carefully.

After his daughter, Xiao Tingzi, brought the pine nuts, she put them next to him and began to eat them while listening to his story.

As Xu Dahai narrated, wonderful stories were presented, and the little girl automatically constructed a picture in her own little head.

Soon I will no longer eat pine nuts.

Nestling in Xu Dahai's arms, breathing lightly, he began to listen to the story carefully.

The fat orange cat was lying on Wang Xiuxiu's plump thighs, sleeping beautifully.

The room was completely quiet, with only the sound of Xu Dahai telling stories. Time flowed slowly, relaxed, warm, and enjoyable.

The night is getting deeper.

After Xu Dahai finished speaking one section, he wanted to sleep, but the little girl begged him to teach another section, and then one section after another.

It wasn't until the fifth section of the story was finished that the little girl's eyelids trembled and she couldn't help but fall into a deep sleep. Xu Dahai and his wife also quickly spread the mattress and quilt and went to sleep.

Hululu~

The big fat cat was lying on the bed, its tractor-like purr was really loud, like a lullaby.

Soon Xu Dahai and Wang Xiuxiu both fell asleep.

……

The next morning, it was around nine o'clock in the morning.

The soft sunshine fell on the village, and the sound of firecrackers burst out.

Many villagers have not yet finished their New Year greetings, so they ride back and forth on 28 big poles with baggage hanging on the handlebars or gifts in baskets at the back to pay New Year greetings.

It's not even the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it's the New Year, and the air is filled with a festive and joyful atmosphere.

Creak, creak, creak~

Xu Yeliang was wearing a large gray leather jacket, leather earbags and a large cotton hat. He strode towards Xu Dahai's house and murmured:

"We had agreed to go hunting together after the New Year, but I don't know if Xu Dahai has finished his New Year greetings... I have spent a lot of money celebrating this New Year.

I hope I can hunt down a few big mountain animals and sell them to get some money to spend. "

Turning the corner, Xu Dajia could be seen in the distance.

"Xiaohai! Have you gone to pay New Year's greetings?"

When he came to the door, he shouted several times quickly, but no one answered, only a few disturbed dogs yelled.

soon.

squeak~

The door opened and Wang Xiuxiu poked her head out: "It's brother Yeliang. Xiaohai and Pu Xiucheng have gone to the countryside."

"What are you doing in the countryside? Drinking?"

"Maybe, I've been gone for almost half an hour."

"Okay, I'll come back another day." Xu Yeliang felt helpless and said goodbye.

……

the other side.

Xu Dahai and Pu Xiucheng, riding two 28-wheelers, had already left Daquan Township.

The cold wind howled, the withered grass swayed, and a desolate atmosphere hit my face.

The wheels ran over the snow, forming deep ruts. In some places, the snow was too thick, so I had to get off the car and push the car slowly.

"Xiao Hai, the wind is too strong. There is a mountain col ahead. Let's go and take shelter from the wind!"

Park Xiucheng leaned forward and struggled to push the 28-meter bar. There was knee-deep snow under his feet. Looking around, there was white snow everywhere, and the environment was extremely harsh.

The cold wind was too strong and Xu Dahai could only shout because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hear.

Xu Dahai responded loudly: "Okay! Have a rest before leaving!"

The two pushed the car and turned left. After a few minutes, they came to a small mountain col that ran east-west.

It was cold and freezing, and strong winds gathered the remaining snow, blowing from the north and just blocked by the hills.

Xu Dahai and Pu Xiucheng huddled in a mountain col next to patches of withered grass, slowly recovering from their frozen bodies.

"Any more wine?"

"Yes, then, how long does it take to get to Laolonggang?"

Xu Dahai threw the small iron pot covered with rabbit skin to Park Xiucheng.

"It takes two hours in normal weather, but now, it's good to get there in three hours." Park Xiucheng unscrewed the lid, hung the spout in the air, and took a big gulp of wine.

The spicy taste enters the throat, and some warmth quickly rises in the stomach, flowing throughout the body, dispelling part of the chill.

They were no longer in Baisong County, but walked all the way southeast and entered Changbai Xian Autonomous County.

Although the two counties are next to each other.

But Xu Dahai rarely comes here, and Pu Xiucheng comes much more often. He is from the Xian tribe and has many relatives and friends here.

"I still want to tell you one more thing. The old Orion family has ten bearskins, and the price is very high, one thousand yuan each.

I tortured him for a long time, but in the end he didn’t lose a penny! Hey~ I don’t know what’s going on. "

Park Xiucheng threw the flask back to Xu Dahai, took out a cigarette, and the two of them lit it and took a rest while smoking.

There was not a breath of wind in the mountain col, which made the two of them much more comfortable.

"A thousand yuan a piece? It's a bit high indeed, but it's not bad. You can make some money by flipping one hand."

"Well, it turns out that I know a wealthy buyer, but he went to Hainan and I can't contact him.

Forget it, you kid, you have to treat me to a drink another day. In this cold weather, I will suffer a lot if I go out. "

Park Xiucheng could not find a better buyer, so he was willing to give up this opportunity, otherwise it would not be Xu Dahai's turn.

of course.

Another reason is that Park Soo-sung doesn't care much about small money. In his opinion, flipping bears' skins is just to make some small money.

"Haha, I have to say that the scenery on a snowy day is still very beautiful. Many people really want to see it with their own eyes in reality, but they can't find the chance." Xu Dahai said with a smile.

Park Xiucheng took a long puff of cigarette and turned to look at the heavy snow outside the mountain col. The cold wind was whistling, the snow smoke was drifting, and the mountains in the distance were also covered with thick snow.

Hearing that "wuwuwu" sound makes people tremble in their hearts.

He curled his lips and said, "Scenery on a snowy day? It's all white. What's there to see? Only those with a big head would like to see this thing."

"Hahahaha~"

Xu Dahai laughed instantly.

Just like - people who live by the sea are tired of seeing the sea, but there are countless people who yearn for the sea.

People who live in mountainous areas are tired of seeing mountains, but countless people want to see mountains.

As for the forest sea and snowy plains - the same is true.

After a break, the wind calmed down a bit, and the two of them continued on their way pushing the 28 big bar.

After another ten minutes, the snow on the ground was no longer so thick, and I could ride on it, much faster.

One p.m.

The two finally arrived at a village south of Laolonggang. There were only a few dozen scattered households, with children running around and dogs barking, and firecrackers bursting out.

It was obviously not Park Xiucheng's first time here. Many people in the village smiled and talked to him when they saw him.

"Let's go and fill our stomachs first. I'm starving to death."

Under the leadership of Pu Xiucheng, they walked around and arrived at a home in Tunxi.

There were only an old couple and a young granddaughter at home, and the meal was quickly served - rice, braised vermicelli with cabbage and pork, salted duck eggs and salted beans.

"Smells! It smells so good!"

The room was very warm. Xu Dahai and Pu Xiucheng sat opposite each other, gulping down rice and vegetables. After eating two bowls of rice, they felt like they were alive.

How happy it is to have enough to eat!

After serving the third bowl of rice, he slowed down.

Looking around, he found that the little girl was sizing him up. Xu Dahai couldn't help but grinned at the little girl. The latter was startled and quickly retracted behind her grandfather.

The old man was wearing an earthy yellow cotton-padded jacket, and the fabric seemed to be dyed with yellow pineapple bark. He smoked a cigarette and glanced at the two of them:

"Have you eaten enough? The meal costs 200 yuan. Who will pay the bill?"

Xu Dahai was shocked, two hundred yuan? A black shop!
