Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

After she and the dogs finished talking about whether she had a conscience or not, the door to the room was finally pushed open.

The wind outside blew in, bringing with it the aroma of food.

It smells so good! This familiar taste...

Zhao Yeqing turned around in surprise and saw two golden fried chickens on the plate held by Mu Xi.

fried chicken!

When Mu Xi saw Zhao Yeqing's eyes flashing, he was suddenly made to laugh, "Is it such a surprise?"

She immediately stepped forward to take the plate and nodded vigorously, "Fried chicken! I haven't had it in more than a year!"

In the past, I ate less in order to stay in shape. When I came back from my job, my life turned upside down even after a good day. I worked from sunrise to sunset every day.

After surviving the winter, she was finally able to relax, but suddenly she was trapped in the room by a snowstorm. How could she not be excited when she saw these two plates of fried chicken?

I washed my hands and couldn't wait to get started.

The chicken is a fried whole chicken, marinated in thick salt water and the meat is tender and juicy. Zhao Yeqing pulled off a chicken leg and could still see the abundant juice in the middle.

One is made the same way as old-fashioned fried chicken. It is coated twice in flour. After the first coat, it is wetted with water, and then it is coated again before being fried.

Another one was made by wrapping it in bread crumbs. There was no bread crumbs at home, and there was no such thing in the village, so Mu Xi took a steamed bun, cut two pieces, dried them and smashed them instead.

The only difference in texture between the two chickens is that they have the same seasoning. Chili powder is added to both chickens when they are breaded.

Zhao Yeqing took one bite of the fried chicken leg and felt happy instantly!

When you bite through the crispy skin with a click, the rich juices of the fried chicken gush out, the skin is crispy and the meat is tender, and you can feel the spicy taste of chili on your tongue.

Although they were two fried chickens, they actually didn’t have much meat. Mu Xi was afraid that the dogs and leopards would be too greedy. Zhao Yeqing couldn’t eat enough of the two fried chickens by himself. It could be seen that they were so greedy that he probably couldn’t help but feed them. Follow-up I cried and muttered but still wanted to eat.

He was busy filling their food bowls.

Zhao Yeqing finished a chicken leg and stopped. When Mu Xi fed the dog and leopard, he tore another chicken leg and handed it to him.

"Eat it while it's hot. It won't taste good when it's cold."

The two fried chickens were quickly dispatched by the two of them. Zhao Yeqing felt very satisfied and walked to the basin to wash off the grease on his hands.

Mu Xi remembered that Zhao Yeqing said before eating that he did not dare to eat while working, and asked,

"You have never been fat since you were a child, why didn't you dare to eat before?"

Mu Xi saw that she had washed her hands and handed her the towel to wipe her hands with.

Zhao Yeqing took the water from his hand and wiped it clean.

"The boss of the company is from Hong Kong and is very particular about it. It is basic that you can only wear professional attire in the company. It is just to dress well. Although it is very realistic, looking good does bring some preferential treatment in the workplace."

Mu Xi nodded clearly, and when she was not prepared, he reached out and squeezed her belly, "It's good."

Zhao Yeqing was so full and satisfied now that he no longer cared about his stomach. "Look at the day outside. Who knows what kind of accident will happen tomorrow or who will come first tomorrow. It's better to fill up your stomach happily first."

Seeing that she was in a good mood, Mu Xi recalled that there were still about ten chickens in the chicken coop, and they could fry them for her again in a while.

-

The wind and snow outside finally stopped after being on and off for half a month.

Mu Xi no longer needed to shovel the snow when he got up in the morning, not because the snow was gone, but because there was no place to put it after shoveling it.

Everywhere is covered with snow, and the deepest part of the yard is almost two meters deep.

When the two realized something was wrong a week ago, they quickly built a shed on top of the chicken coop. The pillars were reinforced with a combination of red bricks and wood. They were not blown down by the wind, leaving only space for the chicken coop to have space. A place for ventilation.

In order to prevent accidents from happening, Zhao Yeqing brought several chicks indoors and raised them, thinking of preserving the last kind of fire.

The chicken doesn't eat much and doesn't poop much. It doesn't smell too much, but it's just that its mental state is not very good.

Also, at such a young age, every day when I opened my eyes, I was faced with the curious gazes of several big dogs and leopards, and anyone else would have collapsed.

In the end, Zhao Yeqing could only take out the plastic sheet that had been painted black to block the sheep pen in the summer, and put it on the chicken cage to block most of the eyes, and the chicken gradually regained its energy.

I don't know if the rabbits underneath are still alive. The last time I put the fodder in, it was quite sufficient. The wind behind it was so strong that anyone who opened the door would blow it away, so I couldn't check it every day.

The snow was too deep behind, and he was really helpless, so Zhao Yeqing didn't force it, "Just live if you can. If you can't, try to tame it later and see if you can succeed."

Taming a hare involves a bit of luck, but it's not difficult to catch and there are more opportunities for trial and error.

By noon, it finally cleared up outside.

When the sun parted the clouds and mist, Zhao Yeqing's mood suddenly became brighter.

The current temperature is a little over 20 degrees below zero. When it was the coldest a few days ago, the temperature on Mu Xi's watch showed that it had reached minus 30 degrees.

It's minus 30 degrees here, so why shouldn't it be minus 50 or 60 degrees in the northernmost city?

Zhao Yeqing couldn't even imagine how to survive that kind of temperature.

"Don't worry, at this time, the state must have organized everyone to take refuge underground."

Almost every city has air raid shelters and subway tunnels underneath, so you can always find a place to take refuge.

Once underground, it will be warm in winter and cool in summer, so it won’t be overwhelming.

Zhao Yeqing nodded, controlling her emotions and not thinking about the worst-case scenario.

Now we still have to deal with a lot of things at home, such as the two-meter-high snow.

She didn't dare to get close, fearing that if it collapsed, she would have to keep it to herself.

She had thought about making pickled sauerkraut before, but then all her energy was spent on raising sheep and growing pasture. She didn't grow too many vegetables. There was still a lot of salt collected, which was not finished in the houses in the village. Not to mention the previous storage in the tourist area.

The salt at home is enough for two people to eat normally for three years.

Zhao Yeqing took out a few bags and planned to sprinkle them on the snow to melt it.

After the salt melts the snow on the snow, it then flows onto the nearby snow, causing the surrounding snow to melt.

However, these few packets of salt were a drop in the bucket for such thick snow. She only wanted to use them at the door and next to the chicken coop first, leaving other places to her time.

She didn't know how long it would take for the snow to melt, but the sun above her head came out. She stretched out her hand to catch the sunshine, and she could hardly feel the temperature.

The thickness of the snow that could be melted by the sun was very small. I was reluctant to sprinkle the salt on my hands in the end. If I sprinkled it with this temperature, it would probably only melt some of the fur, and eventually a layer of ice would form on the surface.

Maybe it's because there's enough snowfall and the wind has been blowing for so long, so the snow is not very hard.

I grabbed a handful and put it in the palm of my hand. It no longer looked like snowflakes at all, but fine granular snow, like icing sugar sprinkled on a dessert.

Just as he was putting away the salt, Zhao Yeqing suddenly heard a strange noise coming from the room.
