There are quite a lot of chores during the Chinese New Year, but the Zhang family's side is not so complicated.It is rare for the family to get together, and Mr. Zhang rejected all requests for New Year's visits early on, and only received relatives and friends.After dealing with those who couldn't refuse, the whole family went to Yunshan Ranch.

Ever since Huo Lao and others lived in Yunshan Ranch, it has been less open to the outside world, so the animals in the ranch are more carefree. Most of them graze around leisurely, not afraid of life at all. Lying under the haystack, the white pouch-like belly bulges and bulges with the breath, feeling very comfortable.

It's winter now, and the cattle and sheep are in the pen to eat the fodder stored in autumn.Occasionally, some animals that are not afraid of the cold can be seen in the pasture, but it is cooler than other seasons.The mountain was also deserted, and the birds that chirped and chirped early in the morning were gone, only the jackdaws that did not want to fly away uttered a few hoarse and unpleasant calls.

Yuan Ning was entangled as soon as he arrived at the ranch. He was the son of the third uncle of the Zhang family who was just born two years ago. His teeth were not fully grown and his speech was vague. He could only speak short sentences. Seeing Yuan Ning from a distance, he immediately shouted happily. : "Hug, hug!"

A soft child with soft and short black hair, Yuan Ning reached out and hugged him, enjoying a loving kiss on his face.Yuan Ning deliberately teased him: "If you don't know anyone, let them hug you. Be careful that you will be hugged and sold."

The little cousin sullenly corrected Yuan Ning's words seriously: "I know, I know."

Yuan Ning raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Do you know me? Then tell me who I am?"

The little cousin hugged Yuan Ning's neck: "Little cousin! Little cousin!"

The third uncle of the Zhang family was also there. Seeing his little cousin hugging Yuan Ning, he shook his head and said, "I don't know what drug Ning Ning gave him. He hasn't seen Ning Ning a few times since he was born. It's just like this when we meet." It's sticky."

Zhang Xiuyan: "..."

Zhang Xiuming stared at Yuan Ning, leaned close to Yuan Ning, squeezed his little cousin's face, and asked with a smile: "Then who am I?"

The little cousin covered his reddened face, shook his head, and ignored Zhang Xiuming.It's the most annoying thing to pinch people's faces casually!If you were a kid you would know that!

Zhang Xiuming said helplessly, "Ningning is still welcome." He glanced at Zhang Xiuyan, feeling a little gloating in his heart.The eldest brother has a cold face all day long, even if he comes from a good background and good looks, few people dare to approach him.Yuan Ning is different. Yuan Ning has a good temper and smiles all day long. She is very friendly when she looks at her. She is sure to be popular everywhere.

I heard that Yuan Ning is now going to a poor county to exercise, and he brought a bunch of juniors and juniors with him. No one complained of suffering or tiredness, and they were all willing to follow Yuan Ning!How good is this popularity?

Just thinking about it makes me feel sad for my elder brother!Thinking of this, Zhang Xiuming couldn't help but feel lucky again.He is different from Simon, he is also very popular, but he is definitely not like Yuan Ning who can provoke a lot of people everywhere; not to mention Simon, almost no one dares to show favor in front of him, and he is cautious in everything he does. Effectively blocked a large number of rotten peach blossoms.

Zhang Xiuming was not afraid of Zhang Xiuyan since he was a child. Seeing Zhang Xiuyan's sullen face, he couldn't help joking: "Brother, Ningning is so attractive, do you have endless jealousy every day?"

Zhang Xiuyan glanced at him and said, "Yes."

Hearing Zhang Xiuyan's frank answer, Zhang Xiuming was taken aback for a while, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.He stared dumbfounded at Zhang Xiuyan, pulled Yuan Ning and said, "Ning Ning, did you hear that my eldest brother said that he has endless jealousy every day! Why do I feel that the two of you are getting more and more alike? This That's not what big brother would say!"

Yuan Ning frowned when he heard Zhang Xiuming's words, and subconsciously looked at the third uncle of the Zhang family next to him.The third uncle of the Zhang family hugged his son from Yuan Ning's arms on the ground, and said to Yuan Ning and the others: "I'll go and see if your third aunt has finished her work."

Yuan Ning understood, come on, everyone knows what happened between him and Zhang Xiuyan, there is no need to hide it.

He never hides either.

Yuan Ning said with a smile: "Why didn't the eldest brother say that? The eldest brother has always been very frank. Let me tell you, I also have endless jealousy every day. After all, the eldest brother is a good son-in-law candidate in many people's hearts." He grabbed Zhang Xiuyan's hand and brightened the ring on it for Zhang Xiuming, "This is what I made someone do to secure my elder brother. We have been wearing it for three or four years."

Zhang Xiuming gave a thumbs up: "It's amazing."

The domestic environment is not as open as St. Lorenzo.Over the past few years, homosexuals in St. Lorenzo have stood up to demand equal marriage rights. There have been several parades and media jubilation. Everything that needs to be popularized has been popularized, and those that need to be brainwashed have been brainwashed. The new bill has almost passed. A foregone conclusion.

Then he and Simon can be together in a dignified and open manner.

Yuan Ning is different from Zhang Xiuyan.They are still in the country, and it seems absolutely impossible to immigrate to St. Lorenzo.

So Yuan Ning and Zhang Xiuyan chose this path must be much more difficult than him and Simon.

Zhang Xiuming didn't expect Yuan Ning to be so much ahead of him and gave away the ring early.No wonder Mensao such as Zhang Xiuyan can express his jealousy frankly. With a lover like Yuan Ning, it is difficult not to become frank and straightforward!

Zhang Xiuming sighed, "I didn't expect you to sneak away for so long!" Thinking of his hard work to break through Simon's last line of defense, Zhang Xiuming couldn't help hooking Yuan Ning's neck, and asked Yuan Ning how he took down Zhang Xiuyan.Although he was not afraid of Zhang Xiuyan, he couldn't imagine how he could attack such a serious, calm and self-reliant person like Zhang Xiuyan!

Yuan Ning did not share the secret story between the two of them with others, but only smiled without answering, and instead asked about Zhang Xiuming and Simon.

Zhang Xiuming also instantly understood Yuan Ning's mood, and immediately stopped asking.Seeing Zhang Xiuyan next to him staring at the hand on Yuan Ning's shoulder, Zhang Xiu laughed, hugged Yuan Ning and kissed Yuan Ning on the face, then ran away with oil on his feet!

Zhang Xiuyan: "........."

Seeing that Zhang Xiuyan's face turned black, Yuan Ning put his arms around Zhang Xiuyan's neck and kissed him on the face.

Zhang Xiuyan felt that Yuan Ning was good everywhere, but he was too recruiting.He took Yuan Ning's hand and walked back to see Aunt Shen and the others fried marijuana.

The hot oil, the raw white dough, twisted into shape and thrown into the pot, fried the fragrant cannabis flowers, which were much bigger than those sold outside, and eating one or two can fill you up for half a day.

It is the most fragrant when it is just fished out, and it burns your throat when you bite it, but you have to swallow it.

Just after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Yuan Ning and Zhang Xiuyan returned to Changcang.This year it snowed heavily, so Zhang Xiu had to organize people to do disaster prevention work.Due to the proper forecast in the early stage, there has been no news of being trapped due to the disaster. However, there will be a period of heavy snow after the year, so we cannot relax just because there was no accident a year ago.

Yuan Ning first went to Yunze Ranch.

The winter at Yunze Ranch is not sluggish, children run everywhere, getting into the snowfields to look for prey that haunts the winter.The hunting instinct remains in the bones of Changcang people, even if they are only half-grown children.

Luo Yuanliang and Nuo Min still stayed in Changcang after their engagement. Both of them had great enthusiasm for the ranch, and they stayed in the ranch every day and didn't leave very often.After seeing Yuan Ning, Luo Yuanliang said, "I'm about to call you. We have almost cultivated the tree species you sent last time, and the greenhouse technology has matured this year. I will bring you the information."

Yuan Ning said happily, "Okay."

Nuo Min asked curiously: "Are these trees as strange as jade berries?"

Yuan Ning said: "It's almost the same, but the edible part is different. This tree mainly uses their resin. It can be collected like the peach gum of the peach tree, which can be eaten in various ways, and the effect is very good. The fruit of Huaishu Village People usually eat it by themselves, and have never sold it outside. Last time, my eldest brother and I tried to collect a little when we passed by."

Nuo Min said: "Then let's plant some in the pasture! I found that the plants on the side of the water lake grow very well, and they will definitely survive there."

Luo Yuanliang nodded.

Yuan Ning said: "It's good for you to make up your mind." Yuan Ning put the tree man in the water to prevent people from being suspicious. The wetland was originally more fertile than ordinary land. After being specially protected by Nuo Min and Luo Yuanliang, even if it changed again No one will say anything.

Yuan Ning lived in the ranch for a few days, and was about to go to the provincial capital to meet Zhang Xiuyan before returning to the county, but suddenly received a call from senior brother Du Jiancheng: "Brother, your elder brother is trapped in the disaster area. Don't worry , I am contacting the disaster relief personnel, they will be there soon."

How could Yuan Ning not be in a hurry?Hearing that Zhang Xiuyan was trapped, he frowned, and immediately asked Ming where Zhang Xiuyan had gone.After getting Du Jiancheng's reply, he immediately hung up the phone and said to Luo Yuanliang, "Brother Luo, take me to the north!"

Luo Yuanliang saw that Yuan Ning was frowning, so he didn't say much, and drove out the car to send Yuan Ning to the back.Some sections of the road were blocked by heavy snow, and occasionally two or three cars could be seen stuck on the side of the road and unable to move.

Having not heard from Zhang Xiuyan, Yuan Ning felt uneasy and did not pay attention to the situation along the road.When they arrived at the disaster relief center closest to the disaster-stricken area, Yuan Ning asked Luo Yuanliang to go back first, found acquaintances to join the disaster relief team, and followed the disaster relief personnel along the blocked roads into the severely disaster-stricken areas.

Yuan Ning was worried along the way.

It has been three days since Zhang Xiuyan was trapped. Two days ago, Du Jiancheng and the others only found out about the disaster, but did not notice that Zhang Xiuyan and his party had lost contact.Zhang Xiuyan was needed for urgent matters today, but after a search, he found that Zhang Xiuyan had already left the original research site and went to the worst-hit area.

There's no way to get in touch now!

Ever since they got busy with work, Yuan Ning and Zhang Xiuyan still called each other every day, and would say hello before going out for research or contacting inconvenient places.This time Zhang Xiuyan also told Yuan Ning that he might not be able to communicate every day in the next few days when he went to investigate.

That's why Yuan Ning didn't find out immediately.

Yuan Ning gathered up his army green coat, and followed the leader to trek in the snow.The sky was gloomy, and snowflakes were falling from the sky, as if they would never end.

The vast world is white.
