Meng Wantang sat up, took out the cotton-padded jacket from under the mattress and put it on.

I took out the warm cotton jacket and put it on. It was still warm and not cold at all. The same goes for cotton pants. Even if you are wearing long johns, if you don't cover them at night, you will be unbearably cold in the morning.

Meng Wantang is not being pretentious.

Except for Lu Qingye, the clothes of everyone else in their family were covered under the mattress.

"Go out and say it. Then everyone will know that you have a lazy mother, and let's see how you still hold your head up in front of children."

Meng Wantang got dressed, put on her socks, and went to the ground to put on her shoes.

All their cotton shoes are made by Lu Caihua.

Meng Wantang was wearing black cotton shoes and felt her feet were very warm.

Gou Sheng followed her unconvinced: "Mom, why are you so thick-skinned?"

If she wasn't thick-skinned, she wouldn't be able to stand up in front of this guy.

"Where's your brother?"

Meng Wantang opened the door and felt a gust of cold wind blowing over her. She hurriedly turned away and asked the brat beside her.

Gou Sheng said: "We are having a snowball fight outside!"

"It's so cold? Is Little Fatty also playing with me?" Meng Wantang was worried that her child would catch a cold and hurriedly walked outside.

When he arrived at the door, he saw a dozen children outside, large and small. One chases the other, and from time to time he bends down to grab a snowball and throw it out.

Goudan is restrained and steady, and usually doesn't make a fuss.

But at this time, Goudan, like a child of this age, had a lot of fun with his younger siblings and a group of children.

Meng Wantang's hands felt a little itchy looking at it, and she also wanted to throw two snowballs.

"Mom, the river ahead is frozen. Can I go skating?" Gou Sheng wandered on the edge of being beaten all day long.

Meng Wantang lowered his head and held the boy's head: "Remember what mom said, never go to the river to play. Do you understand?"

Gou Sheng said: "It's covered in thick ice, and I can't fall down."

Why can't you go?

"It's not frozen at all, do you understand?"

It's not like Meng Wantang has never lived in the north. She has seen many people crossing rivers in winter and falling from the river.

The river is hundreds of meters wide and cannot be crossed without a bridge.

The strip of ice in the middle of the river was not frozen solid at all.

It looks frozen, but the ice will crack if you walk on it.

Gou Sheng didn't understand and shook his head honestly.

Meng Wantang's eyes narrowed dangerously, and Gou Sheng immediately said loudly: "Mom, don't worry, I will never go skating in the river."

"If you want to skate, it's not impossible. Mom will take you to the fish pond tomorrow for skating." Anyway, every household is staying at home, so basically nothing happens.

Since the children were on vacation, she took them out for a day.

Otherwise, children will always be thinking about skating, and when they grow up, they will definitely feel regretful when they look back.

"Really?"

Gou Sheng couldn't believe it.

Meng Wantang touched the tip of his red nose: "When have I ever failed to keep my words?"

"You said before that you wouldn't secretly eat pig's trotters, but you still ate a lot." Gou Sheng's memory is not very good.

Although he was not talking about her, but the original owner, she still had to bear the blame.

Meng Wantang smiled: "I mean now."

Although his mother smiled gently, Gou Sheng was keenly aware of the danger.

The little guy said with a strong desire to survive: "Since my father came back, you have become much better than before."

"Where is it good?"

Meng Wantang felt proud, waiting for this boy to praise her.

Gou Sheng took two steps forward, turned back and said, "I'm even more greedy than before. But we can also eat together!"

"Lu Suihe, stop!"

Meng Wantang rushed forward and was about to beat Gou Sheng. Gou Sheng ran very fast, and in the blink of an eye he blended into the crowd and started playing with other children.

Either she really wanted to beat this brat, or she just wanted to scare him.

"Little Fatty, Sanni, you two come here."

Meng Wantang looked at the two children who were helping her brother hold the snowball, and hurriedly pulled them off the battlefield. Both children's hands were cold.

"Go back quickly."

Meng Wantang was worried that they would catch a cold, so she took them to the yard.

"Why did you bring it back?" Lu Caihua asked in surprise.

Meng Wantang said: "They were playing in the snow outside, and I was worried that his hands were frostbitten."

"Can't freeze."

Lu Caihua didn't take it to heart at all.

"Why can't you freeze?" Meng Wantang has seen too many children whose hands were frostbitten.

Lu Caihua said: "You city people must not know that well. We have known since childhood that the first snowfall in early winter is used to wash and rub hands. This way, the hands will not freeze all winter."

"Is there still such a statement? Is it accurate?" Meng Wantang was a little doubtful.

Lu Caihua nodded: "I don't know if it's accurate. Anyway, for so many years, I have wiped my hands with snow. Anyway, my hands have never been frozen. But some people's hands will also be frozen."

Meng Wantang: "..."

There was old ginger at home. Meng Wantang cut the ginger into slices, took out the brown sugar jar, and made ginger juice and brown sugar.

"You also put brown sugar?" Lu Caihua felt it was a waste.

Just drink some ginger water.

Where to put brown sugar.

"Without brown sugar, children wouldn't be able to drink it at all."

Lu Caihua felt that Meng Wantang was really attentive: "You are right."

"I plan to take them to the fish pond for skating tomorrow." Meng Wantang asked Lu Caihua, "Sister, why don't you go with me?"

"What am I going to do? I won't go. I will make a few more pairs of shoes for the children while I have time in the winter. Children grow up quickly, so they have to make shoes in advance." Lu Caihua is busy all day long. stop.

I used to make cotton clothes.

After finishing the cotton coat, I knitted a sweater.

She can knit sweaters faster than Meng Wantang.

At first glance, he looks like he is a good worker.

"also."

Lu Caihua brought out the food: "Eat something first, you haven't eaten anything in the morning."

Eat two meals at home.

Those who can afford it will only take a bite at noon.

Being so hungry without any conditions.

I got used to being hungry.

There were many children in their family. When Meng Wantang was eating, he asked several children to come back and take a few bites. When the children are growing, how can they do without eating something?

By chance, the ginger juice and brown sugar water was ready, and she went out to call the child back in person.

"Mom, no one has gone home."

Before the dog came in, he was still chirping. Goudan glanced at him: "Aren't you hungry?"

"I'm hungry."

Gou Sheng is now honest.

"Drink this first."

Meng Wantang served each of them a bowl of ginger juice and brown sugar water.

Goudan took it and drank it.

It was Gou Sheng's turn. He put it in front of his nose and smelled it, and then said, "Mom, is this stuff Chinese medicine?"

"It's not Chinese medicine, it's poison. Drink it." Meng Wantang said with a smile.

Gou Sheng put down the bowl: "I'm not sick. What kind of Chinese medicine should I drink? I don't drink it."

"Oh, do you like to drink?"

Meng Wantang served herself a bowl of hot ginger juice and brown sugar water. After drinking it, her whole body felt warm.

It tastes much better than yesterday's ginger water.

Gou Sheng: "???"

What happened?

Why did you drink it all?

Xiaopang sat on the small bench, holding the bowl by himself, sipping in small sips, and looked at Meng Wantang with a smile after taking a sip.

Meng Wantang touched his head and asked gently: "Does it taste good?"

Xiaopang nodded obediently.

Gou Sheng thought suspiciously, is this crap so delicious?
