The return of natural disasters before the end of the world

Wrap the unfinished dumplings in a cloth, put them in the snow overnight, and refrigerate naturally. On the 25th day, Mu Bai brought a few people over, and it was nothing important, just to give some gifts a year ago, although it may not be a good thing.But obviously I took more with me when I went back.

Just the frozen dumplings, the rest of their family was taken away by Mu Bai, and by the way, some were sent to Cheng Hui and the others in the town, so as not to have to make a special trip.

Yao Ziqing thought that he could train Xiao Wu to familiarize himself with the route, and if he wanted to give something in the future, he would definitely be much faster than ordinary people with his foot strength.But Xiao Wu is too big and fat, I'm really worried that someone will revolt and catch Xiao Wu.Then there is really no return.

The two Cheng Hui brothers ate dumplings for several days, and only remembered when the last [-] dumplings were cooked and eaten: "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, right?"

Cheng Tao nodded with his mouth full, and took two chopsticks from his bowl while his brother was distracted, and took a bite first before talking.Cheng Hui didn't bother to argue with him, and looked at the deserted room, inexplicably feeling a little uncomfortable:

"It's the Chinese New Year? It's really rare. Our brothers can finally spend the Chinese New Year together this year. Hey, we eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year, or dumplings donated by others. This year is really poor."

Cheng Tao raised his eyelids and glanced at him, and said coolly: "It's good to eat some, what's not shabby!" Anyway, it's still stuffed with meat, and others don't even have it if they want to eat it!

Throughout the year, this meal is particularly important, so naturally it cannot be sloppy.In the early morning, Lei Li started making meatballs.In some places, the habit is to make meatballs and fried fish cubes in advance, and keep them in the refrigerator for a long time to eat.

However, the brothers in their family like to eat freshly made ones, which are crispier and have a better taste.Although it is a little troublesome to do, but in order to satisfy the appetites of the younger brothers, he, the eldest brother, only has trouble once or twice a year.

The evening meal is the highlight, so everyone just ate something casually at noon to cope.The sun, which had been sunny for two days, disappeared in the afternoon. Seeing the sky darken, a snowstorm was coming soon.

Because it didn't come suddenly, seeing that the weather was not right, many villagers started to prepare.The windows were sealed with wooden strips or boards, and even the quilts to keep out the cold were reinforced again and again.However, the blizzard was more violent than expected.

Some families were reluctant to collect the membranes after harvesting, and just planted another crop of cold-resistant vegetables.A few days ago, it was said that the harvest would be ready soon.Now it is estimated that it was completely destroyed by this snowstorm.

No matter whether there is another layer of protection against the cold outside, those things in the ground cannot withstand such a big snowstorm.Even a lot of them were blown away when the villagers came to snatch them up.But even if there was only a little left, they took it back home despite the wind and snow.

Ma Chen and Fang Jinlei strengthened the enclosure of the backyard. Although there was a sound of blowing, they would not be blown away anyway.But those dead branches and flowers in the front yard were all destroyed and could not be seen.The sweet-scented osmanthus tree transplanted from that old house does not know whether it can hold it this time.

Fortunately, when the windows were made before, there was a layer of wooden windows on the outside, otherwise they would definitely be broken.The wind was mixed with some messy things, and it sounded particularly unsafe to hit the window.It always feels like the window will be broken in the next moment.

"Shouldn't we have made windows in the first place? Only the walls are safe! At least we don't have to worry about being smashed!"

Lei Lang laughed twice after hearing this: "Yeah, don't worry about being broken, it's all walls, do you think you're a mental patient?!"

Yao Ziqing reached out and grabbed two slices of sauced beef, ate one by himself, and stuffed the other into the second brother's mouth. Seeing that the second brother had finished eating, he smiled and said, "It was too cold in the bathroom and I didn't wash my hands!"

Lei Xiao looked up at him, then continued to lower his head and carefully cut the beef into even thickness.Half a chicken was placed on a large platter, and sliced ​​beef was placed on the other half.This is just a cold dish. Although it is eaten at home, it is still necessary to pay attention to the presentation of the plate during the Chinese New Year.

Ma Xin was mixing edamame, and smiled while mixing: "It's the first time that there are so many people so lively during the Chinese New Year. It used to be me and my brother. If my brother has any tasks, then I will be the only one left for the Spring Festival Gala." I’m watching the New Year’s Eve alone at the party”

With a kind smile on her face, grandma said: "Our family is a big family, and the population will increase in the future, and we will have such a round and lively reunion every year in the future!"

Li Wenshan peeled a plate of tender corn, Yao Ziqing took it to the kitchen, took out a bag of pine nuts and cashew nuts, thought about it and thought it was not enough, and then took out a bag of pine nuts.

Resolutely with black lines all over his head: "It's corn fried with pine nuts, not pine nuts fried corn!"

"I love to eat pine nuts, and my second brother also loves to eat pine nuts!"

These days, Si'er's nails have been cut twice, and they were all split or broken off by peeling pine nuts.If you cut it again, it will be meat with scissors, and if you lose your nails, you will start enslaving Fang Jinlei to help him peel off the shell.The inside and outside of the house have to be cleaned, and people start to bite with their teeth when they don't have time to peel him.

Lei Li is helpless, I really don't know why Si'er likes to eat things with shells so much?

I have been busy all day, just for a meal in the evening.Lei Lang and Ma Chen brought the stove into the house early on. One was placed beside the dining table in the living room, and the coffee table in front of the sofa was also turned on. A stove was placed, which provided both lighting and warmth.

A total of [-] dishes were cooked. After all, this year's new daughter-in-law should not be too casual.Although Ma Chen and the others didn't pay much attention to these things, Lei Li couldn't just deal with it because of the importance he attached to Ma Xin.

The whole family sits together, saying auspicious words, no matter how severe the snow is outside now, no matter whether the next year is a more severe disaster or a new hope, at least they are reunited at this moment, at least for tomorrow, they are still full of expectations of!

Yao Ziqing sat in front of the window with a full belch, holding a glass of red wine in his hand.I don't pay much attention to the use of goblets, just ordinary beer glasses, and drinking more than half of the glass of red wine is the same as drinking fruit juice.Hearing the voice, he turned around and saw that it was the second brother, and grinned.

Lei Xiao's eyes darkened, the ruddy lips illuminated by the firelight in the dark night were too attractive.And those dark and bright eyes, people can't help sinking in just looking at them.

Yao Ziqing drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp, got up from the kang, with the wine in his mouth, he just hooked Lei Xiao's neck like this, and let the wine in his mouth flow into the air of the opponent little by little.

At the end, he asked with the smell of wine: "Is it sweet?"

Lei Xiao reached out and wiped the remaining liquid from his lips: "Don't drink red wine as fruit juice"

"Isn't red wine just grape juice? Grandma can also make it. I still have a lot of grapes in my place. When the weather gets warmer, let grandma make grape juice!"

Lei Xiao took off his clothes and stuffed them under the quilt, Yao Ziqing just let him play with him with a smile on his face.He wasn't drunk, but he didn't hold too much alcohol. He finished a bottle of red wine by himself. His brain was clear, but his behavior was a little slow.

Seeing that he was curled up in the quilt and looking at him with a flushed face, Lei Xiao couldn't help speeding up.Close the door and turn off the lights and go to bed.As for keeping the old age, as long as you are awake, it doesn't matter where you keep it or how you keep it.

The next day, the wind and snow still had no intention of stopping, but when the wind and snow subsided a little at noon, some adults brought their children to visit grandma for New Year greetings.There will be some small snacks on the table, fried beans, sugar cakes, rice candy, sweet potato chips and other foods that can be made with a little bit of conditions, which are not eye-catching.

Those children are probably restricted from eating these things by their families, so they have to eat a lot at the moment.The adults who brought them here were a little embarrassed, but they didn't stop their children.After all, the family can't afford it, and now I'm looking at the opportunity, so it's better to let the child eat enough.

I had expected it before, but grandma still felt uncomfortable seeing the child like this.Now basically there is only one child in every household, and no one cares about it.It's not like it was so difficult for her to bring her four grandchildren back then, but now it's getting worse.

When it was time to leave, grandma grabbed several handfuls and stuffed them into the child's pocket.Generally, the pockets of this kind of cotton-padded jacket are extraordinarily large, and if both pockets are filled, there are almost as many pockets as a small bag.

Almost every time a child leaves, the contents of the fruit plate on the table have to be added once.Fortunately, there are a lot of preparations, but there is no shortage of supply.

Yao Ziqing was sitting on the kang, with sweet potatoes roasting in the stove next to him, and the fragrance spread throughout the room, sweet and sweet.Ma Chen put the navel oranges next to the stove to roast. It was still very cold to eat in winter, but the taste was the same after roasting and warming up.

Lei Lang looked at the cards in his hand and chatted: "Lei Yi's new wife has heard that she has had trouble several times, and Lei Yi probably hates elder brother to death now!"

Yao Ziqing was puzzled: "Why do you hate Big Brother? Big Brother didn't invite him to provoke him."

"When their family quarreled, the newly married daughter-in-law yelled, why are you so useless, marrying you is better than being a child to Lei Li! What are you saying, if someone treats his wife one-tenth as well as Lei Li, My life will not be so miserable!"

He said and shook his head: "Anyway, it's noisy every day. When I got married, I didn't even have a banquet. I guess I was already uncomfortable. The second uncle made such a fuss before, and almost everything that could be smashed at home was smashed." Clean, I'm already poor and white, but I want the two brothers to marry a wife at this time, heh, life is wonderful!"

Yao Ziqing tilted his head and pushed Fang Jinlei with his arm: "What about you? When are you going to think about lifelong events?"

Fang Jinlei grinned, then continued to peel pine nuts for Si'er with his head down.Fate will come naturally, anyway, he is not in a hurry.

Yao Ziqing looked at a room full of bachelors and always felt that if he didn't sell them all, they would lose sales.It seems that I am really too idle, and I always want to find something to pass the time.

This year's winter feels extraordinarily long. In previous years, during the Chinese New Year holidays, it really passed by in minutes. It seems that the year is over in the blink of an eye, and it is time to go to work and go to school.But now those busy people are simply a luxury.

After the new year, it means that spring is coming and everything is going to recover.Even though it is still cold and windy and snowy, at least there is still hope in my heart.Just before spring came, another serious problem appeared in the village.

Roundworms, which had not reappeared for many years, spread again and became fatal.
