simple life

"Brother Wang, just lend me some vegetables. I don't want too many, you can just give me a few vegetable leaves. No, no, I can buy them." A young man begged in his eyes, and called him Brother Wang in a low voice. people said.

The middle-aged man, Brother Wang, who stood at the door opposite and refused to let people in for a while, was a bit fat.The fat on his face squeezed his pendulous triangular eyes to only a slit.

Brother Wang sighed: "It's not that I won't give it to you, it's just that I don't have any vegetables at home. I consume too much these days, let alone vegetables, and I don't even have fresh meat. What we eat now is stored in the refrigerator last year. Here, the bacon that has almost never been eaten. Not only is it too boring, but the whole family is constipated."

The man said anxiously: "But..." Thinking of something, he didn't continue talking.

The middle-aged man became impatient, and his tone was a bit aggressive: "Go and look elsewhere, I don't have any here." After speaking, he slammed the door shut.

The man jumped when he heard the sudden slam of the door.

After the middle-aged man entered, he went straight to the electric heater.A hot pot was boiling on the stove, and the wife and children sitting next to him were already eating.On the small table next to it, there was a pot full of cabbage.

The wife picked up a chopstick of boiled cabbage for a fat child of about ten years old. "Liangliang, eat some cabbage to improve digestion."

The child looked disgusted: "I don't like to eat cabbage."

"This child, no one else wants to eat it now! Be good, eat more." After coaxing the child, the wife turned to the man and asked, "Send him away?"

The man sat on the chair and picked up the bowl: "Yes."

The wife proudly said: "Look, when I was growing vegetables at home, you objected in various ways. If it weren't for me, you would go with Xibeifeng now."

The man flattered and complimented: "Yes, yes, thanks to you. These dishes at home are precious now."

At the beginning, his wife watched the videos of how to grow vegetables at home, and imitated others.At that time, the man thought she was full, how much was the vegetable worth?Can't you just buy it?Moving the dirt also made the house dirty.

Due to the limited space, not many were planted.But if you eat it at home, it is still enough for many days.

I don't know when the snowstorm will get better. Vegetables are too important to people, and only fools will sell them.

Speaking of which, the man drooped his shoulders and returned to the upstairs home full of helplessness.

Before entering the door, I heard the sound of a baby crying.As the man listened, his heart ached.

"Oh~ baby is good~" A young woman expertly held the baby, walked around the room, patted the baby's back, trying to comfort the baby.

Seeing the man coming in, she hurried over with the child and asked, "How is it?"

The man sighed: "They refused to give it. They also told me that they finished eating some time ago."

The woman said: "Impossible. Yesterday when the little fat man was playing in the corridor, I heard him say that there are a lot of cabbage in the house that he hates..."

Man: "Of course I know this, but I can't say it. He insisted that he didn't. What can I do?"

The woman looked anxious: "Then what should we do? We adults can forget it, but the baby hasn't eaten vegetables for two days. At this age, it's impossible for him to drink only milk powder like when he was just born. He ate miscellaneous grains , without vegetables, how can his stomach take it? The baby hasn’t had a bowel movement for more than a day.”

The man felt very sad when he heard it, but he calmed down immediately: "I'll go out again to see if I can get some vegetables from other residents." He opened the door and went out again.

This year's snow season is very long.We have never experienced the days when it snows every day for half a month.The situation above is not just a case of one or two families.No one could have imagined that it had been snowing for so long.

Now I can't go anywhere.The ice in some places is not only smooth, but also sticky.Sometimes when I stand on it, if I don't have other people to help, it will be as if it has taken root, and I can't move my feet.At this time, if you pull back hard, the whole person will slip and fall.

In this kind of weather, it's okay for people to walk outside, but it will hurt at most if they fall.If you are really unlucky, you may have a broken bone, but this is rare.

The car is dangerous. If it skids and drifts, it may collide with other cars, or it may overturn directly.Many times people die.

People can't get out, and all kinds of daily necessities, especially vegetables, can't get in.Many people who feel that their vegetable food is well prepared suddenly find that it is far from enough.

The adults are okay, but the children are sad.Let them affect their bodies because they can't eat vegetables, it's hard to bear to think about it.

In this time of disaster, everyone is centered on themselves and their families.It is impossible for others to hand over their own materials to others.Vegetables at this time are more valuable than ever, and to some people, they are really priceless.

Thinking about the snow season that does not know when it will end, everyone feels anxious.

During this period of time, the snow was sometimes big and sometimes small. Due to the temperature, the original snow did not melt, and it accumulated layer by layer, which was terribly thick.

Every day, with a much higher salary than usual, the diligent snow removal workers lost their patience by the new snow every day.It's so cold, just after the snow removal, there will be a lot of snow soon, and it is still difficult for vehicles to pass.

What they need to remove snow every day is the main road of the whole city. As for the small ones, no one takes care of them, and they don't have the energy to take care of them.It can only be left to the residents living on that road to sweep the snow in front of their doors.

It is not only electricity that threatens tall buildings, but also water.

With so many days of snowfall and such low temperatures, the pipes were basically frozen and there was no water available.Many people, holding basins and buckets, braved the severe cold and went out to scoop clean snow back home.

If you need it in a hurry, put it directly into the iron basin and heat it slowly to boil.If you are not in a hurry, just put it in the basin and bucket, and let it melt slowly at room temperature.

When reading history books, I saw that when lower-level officials respected their superiors, they would respect with ice and charcoal.

The concubines in the Qing palace also used ice cubes stored in the winter of the previous year to cool off.

In summer, ice is used to spread the cold air in the room, which can relieve the heat.What about winter?

In winter, people carry snow to their homes.Melting snow absorbs heat and produces bursts of cold air, which is unbearable.

But in any case, those who can store snow at home are lucky.Although the snow water may not be drinkable, in daily life, the water for washing and flushing the toilet is guaranteed.

The ones in the tall buildings are miserable.First, they have to move down the house what they can use to hold snow.Even with the elevator, it is quite troublesome.

Secondly, in a community, so many people use snow, on average, there is not much for one person.

What's more, after the full basin of snow is turned into water, there is not so much.They use snow water more carefully than others.

All kinds of restlessness that would appear in the city were not a problem at all for Tang Guo and the others.

First, they have no shortage of food.Second, they are not short of water either.

Summarizing last year's experience, Yan Ting bought three extra large plastic buckets this year.Each bucket is filled with water.

This water is used for drinking and cooking.In other respects, they also use snow water as skillfully as anyone else.

In the cold winter, the fire in the living room is always burning.In addition to cooking and boiling a little drinking water, the stove will basically be idle.At this time, if you don't make more use of it to boil some snow water, it will be a waste.

They sat around the stove, chatting and watching TV while warming up. From time to time, someone would take a big iron basin and go to the snow outside to scoop it up and get a big basin full.

It was fun to carry it back to the house and watch the snow slowly melt on the stove.

Because they didn't need to drink snow water, they didn't let the iron basin burn on the fire for too long. Once the snow melted, they poured the water into an empty plastic bucket.

In the future, washing, simple bathing, and washing vegetables will be directly taken out of this bucket for use.

Compared with others, they are extremely carefree.Not only eat well, live well, but also play well.

They used the small flat ground outside the yard, the slope, and the road below as playgrounds for skating.The supporting tools for skating were all ordered by Tang Feng after he came back, and everyone had a pair.Now it can be used in the south, which shows that he has the foresight.

Among them, only Yan Ting, Tang Feng and Lu Zhongze could skate.The others, although they don't know how to do it, are quite energetic.

The venue here is small, there are no facilities, and it is not safe.They simply practiced leisurely outside for fun.

Tang Guo moved slowly: "This is the first time I've played this game, and it's also the first time I've stood on the snow. It's really exciting."

Yan Ting smiled and said: "There is nothing here, and it is not a ski resort where you can have fun. It can only be used to relieve your boredom. Where is the excitement?"

Tang Guobai glanced at him: "I'm not like you who can play around, I'm happy just by taking a step on the snow, okay?"

Yan Ting immediately surrendered: "Okay, I was wrong. When we have a chance in the future, let's go to a place where we can enjoy skiing, how about having fun?"

Tang Guo said happily: "Okay! Then I have to practice hard. After all, this is so fun, and as expected, after skiing, it should become a special sport in winter here. What if I don't practice well?"

Yan Ting: "Then I will give you a good guide." Then, beside Tang Guo, he slowly guided him how to ski.

Not only them, but the others also had a good time.After that, we added another sport.
