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

Now that we have cars, it is very convenient to travel to tourist areas.

Mu Xi watched Zhao Yeqing tinker with the house, and also wanted to help out with ideas to make the house better.

I proposed to drive to the tourist area and bring back the decorations I could bring back to decorate my home.

Originally, the two of them had had this idea, but there were no cars at that time, so they had to rely on Xiaohong and a cart to bring everything back. Not to mention the long time, the things they could bring were very limited, and they didn't have the thought and thought. energy.

Now that everything is in place, there is no reason not to do something to please yourself.

"Okay, you go ahead. I'll do it at home. I'll have to break the corn back later. You go early and come back early."

The corn in the cornfield has grown and now is the time to be crispy and sweet.

This batch is for your own consumption. There is no need to put the corn on the pole and wait until it is ripe before picking it. When it is ripe, peel off the corn kernels and put it in the refrigerator to freeze. Take it out directly when you want to eat it. Stir-fried, the texture and taste are almost the same as fresh ones.

Now the temperature can reach around zero degrees at night, and it can still be five or six degrees during the day.

At this temperature, the corn must be covered with film sooner or later to ensure that the temperature inside is above ten degrees, so that it can be properly filled and mature.

It has finally matured now, but when I tasted it, it was still not as delicious as the batch planted in spring.

Even if it's a pity that I couldn't think of getting a refrigerator at that time, otherwise I wouldn't bother to serve these dozen corns now.

In today's temperature, food that needs to be refrigerated no longer needs to be put in the refrigerator, but freezing still needs to be done in the refrigerator.

The electricity converted by the solar panels during the day is barely enough to support the electricity consumption for a day. After all, the recent weather is indeed not very good.

It looked like there was going to be another rain before winter. There were not many thick dark clouds in the sky, it just looked gloomy and foggy.

Seeing that it was going to rain, Zhao Yeqing remembered that the two of them had talked about making two new raincoats before, but the last time they went to find the generator, there were a lot of raincoats on those cars, and almost every car had a few of them. .

The two of them picked out newer ones with thicker materials and brought them back. There were about seven or eight sets, so they didn't have to make another raincoat.

She walked into the tool room, took out the moth-eaten raincoat from before, and put it in the kitchen to start a fire.

Zhao Yeqing has been dealing with the moth infestation on his diaphragm for a long time, but because he didn't have much equipment before, he just made do with it, and now he can finally deal with it.

When Mu Xi came back, Zhao Yeqing was shelling corn in the yard.

Seeing him come back, he said to him: "Now that I have a raincoat, I took out the old raincoat and planned to burn it. I happened to see that this tool room had only been used for half a year and there were some cobwebs and small bugs. It had to be cleaned before the Chinese New Year. I’ll leave the tool room to you.”

Mu Xi put the vase ornaments he had brought back in front of Zhao Yeqing, "Okay, I'll get them in a minute. You pick these things and see what to do with them... Oh, by the way..."

As he said this, he turned around and ran back to the car, and took out a large stack of books. "And this one, I thought you would like it, so I brought it all back."

Zhao Yeqing kept peeling the corn and looked up at the book cover in Mu Xi's hand...

"The Lonely Boss Prefers Me", "The Killer Princess", "That Schoolboy Is Really Bad"...

Zhao Yeqing looked at the book cover of a novel with such an ancient style of writing, and the corn in his hand unconsciously fell into the corn kernels.

With eyes shining brightly, she took over a thick pile of books. These were all books she had read when she was a child. Although she had long forgotten what was said in them, when she saw the painting style on the book cover, she felt that she had passed away. Memories began to attack her.

Mu Xi was right, she was indeed very interested.

He also gave the job of shucking corn to Mu Xi. He held the book and sat next to Mu Xi and started reading.

I thought it looked good before, but now I find it very curious. I don’t know how I developed such admiration for these protagonists in the first place.

The more she watched, the more interesting it became. Until Mu Xi had already finished cooking, she was still immersed in the plot of four heroines with different identities and different eye colors and hair colors shocking everyone on campus.

Mu Xi had never read this kind of novel, so he asked a few words, "It's so good? What are you talking about?"

This sentence caused him to feel extremely painful throughout the dinner. He frowned as he listened to Zhao Yeqing tell the story of four sixteen-year-old girls with assassins, hackers, miracle doctors, and ancient martial arts heritage, who fell in love on campus.

Several books were placed on Zhao Yeqing's desk. It had to be said that this book was really the spiritual food she needed most so far. Although it was not very healthy, it had a unique taste.

Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to read the book in the next few days until the Chinese New Year.

There are too many places in the house that need to be cleaned. In addition to the inside of a few rooms, there are also spider webs under the eaves and moss growing on the walls.

Mu Xi swept the yard clean, put the leaves that had not been cleaned some time ago into Zhao Yeqing's compost bucket, and then raised the broom to sweep the cobwebs under the eaves.

Zhao Yeqing tidied the house, cleaned the windows and removed dust, and then placed the ornaments on the tables and cabinets for decoration.

In addition to ornaments, there are also some woven tapestries.

The place where Mu Xi got the tapestry was a milk tea bar. The decoration inside was very pastoral, and the matching tapestry fit perfectly with the wooden walls.

After decorating the house, the dried sweet-scented osmanthus was made into sachets and hung in every corner of the house to let the fragrance slowly spread.

Zhao Yeqing turned around in a circle, looked at the entire room and nodded with satisfaction.

It finally doesn't look like a matchbox.

Waiting until the morning of New Year's Eve, there seemed to be some kind of festive atmosphere today, so there was no need to set the alarm clock. The two of them woke up naturally just before seven in the morning.

After washing up, I was finally able to post the couplets I had prepared long ago.

There is safety at the door, and there is always plenty within the door.

Zhao Yeqing also cut window grilles out of red paper and pasted them on the windows of all rooms, making it look lively and festive.

Mu Xi went out and took all the fish in the pond to the lake and released them, leaving only two in the pond for cooking tonight.

The New Year's Eve dinner had been prepared two days ago, including fried sweet potatoes, fried meatballs... They originally thought of killing the pig and frying some crispy meat, but the two of them forgot to separate the pig to be killed and starve it.

In the first three days before the pig is killed, the pig is basically not fed. At most, it is given some rice soup to let it empty its stomach.

But when the two of them remembered this incident, it was already two days ago. They could only isolate the pig and starve it for two days. Today is exactly the third day. The pig has not eaten anything since last night, just for I don’t have the energy to struggle today.

After decorating the home, the two dragged the pig out.
