After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lu Qingjiu began to prepare for winter. Last year was inexperienced, so I prepared a little late. The winter in Shuifu Village is more difficult than I imagined. This year's situation may not look better than last year, so it is better to prepare all the things in the house earlier. .
It's just that the weather hadn't cooled down completely, and some foods could not be stored for the time being, so Lu Qingjiu stocked up dry goods and other materials that were easy to store, such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, coal, and other daily necessities that would definitely be used.
The generator that Lu Qingjiu wanted to buy didn't exist in town, so he had to go to the city to buy one, along with the generator and diesel for the machine. Lu Qingjiu bought quite a lot, so he could Until next February.
In addition to the most important generator, Lu Qingjiu also bought a lot of quilts, bedding, down jackets and other items for the family, as well as the coal used to burn the kang. He directly ordered a truckload of goods with the boss who sold coal in the town. Take it home when you arrive. Lu Qingjiu didn't buy small things like candles, lamps, lamps, and other small things, just to avoid that if something went wrong with the generator, the house wouldn't be smeared.
Hu Shu in the town saw Lu Qingjiu pulling big and small bags to his house. It was a bit strange that he was still pulling these unusual daily necessities. He said that it was still early for winter. What are you doing? Is it the end of the world? Stock up
Lu Qingjiu said, "Isn't that right, you also remember to stock up on more food."
Hu Shu said in horror, "Really? Are you joking??" If someone said this, he would have taken it as a joke, but it was Lu Qingjiu who said it. Lu Qingjiu had helped them so much before. They also saw that Lu Qingjiu's identity was unusual. As soon as these words came out, Hu Shu immediately became nervous, "Is the world really going to end?"
Lu Qingjiu was squatting on the ground to choose duck eggs, but when he heard Hu Shu's tone so nervous, he said, "Why are you so nervous?"
Hu Shu said: "It's going to end the world, of course I'm going to be nervous."
Lu Qingjiu said, "You don't think I'm joking with you?"
Hu Shu: "..." He was silent for a moment, then asked carefully, "Are you really joking with me?"
Lu Qingjiu showed helplessness. He could only explain the situation in Shuifu Village. He said that after it snowed, he would not be able to come to the town, so he had to prepare a lot of winter supplies. If it was the end of the world, there seemed to be nothing wrong.
After listening to it, Hu Shu was relieved, and he enthusiastically told Lu Qingjiu that if there was anything that could be helpful, let Lu Qingjiu say so.
Lu Qingjiu waved his hand to indicate that he could leave, but he hadn't chosen his duck eggs yet.
The best duck eggs for making salted duck eggs are sea duck eggs. When the chopsticks are inserted into the salted duck eggs, red oil will ooze out, and ordinary duck eggs will suffice to make preserved eggs. Lu Qingjiu really likes preserved eggs. However, both Bai Yuehu and Yin Xun were not very interested in this kind of egg that looked like it was moldy, which was quite rare.
In addition to duck eggs, Lu Qingjiu also purchased a lot of dry goods from the town. Dried seafood is a must. What kind of squid, sea cucumber, shrimp, rice and kelp? I bought a lot of them in a mess. Besides dry seafood, what kind of fungus noodles are there? , He has prepared a complete set of things with a longer shelf life.
In order to buy these things, Lu Qingjiu spent almost 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. Among them, the generator he bought was the better one, and together with the diesel, he spent 30,000 yuan. Fortunately, their family is not short of money now, and because of the increase in the production of hair growth water, the numbers on the passbook are more beautiful.
Yin Xun saw that Lu Qingjiu was as busy as a little ant moving house, and said that there are still two months before winter, why is he so busy.
Lu Qingjiu said who knows, if winter comes early and they don't prepare anything, wouldn't they freeze to death in Shuifu Village. Yin Xun said okay, but the autumn harvest festival was coming, so he asked Lu Qingjiu if he would go.
Lu Qingjiu thought about it and decided not to go. He went last year to build a good relationship with the villagers. This year, he found that none of the villagers were alive, and he always felt that it was strange to worship with them. Yin Xun also understood this, so when the autumn harvest festival was approaching, Lu Qingjiu organized their own autumn harvest festival at home. He also went to the town to buy a big pig head, moved it home, put it at home, put in incense and began to worship Yin Xun, the mountain god.
Yin Xun was a little embarrassed by Lu Qingjiu being beside him.
After the pork sacrifice was over, Lu Qingjiu marinated it and ate it. It tasted good. This year, their family was too troublesome to raise pigs. Lu Qingjiu planned to raise two pigs next year. In addition to pigs, he plans to raise two more lambs. By this time next year, he should be able to eat his own fat roast lamb.
In a blink of an eye, it was the National Day. Zhu Miaomiao originally wanted to come and play, but she had to work overtime, so she could only meet next year with tears in her eyes. National Day is the last holiday you can come to Shuifu Village. By New Year's Day, Shuifu Village has been covered with snow, and people can't come out or enter.
Autumn is a very satisfying season. The crops and vegetables in the fields are ripe, and the branches are full of fruits. The most beautiful ones are the plump and plump persimmons, which grow in the east of the village and attract people. to pick. Lu Qingjiu found an afternoon with good weather and went to pick persimmons with Bai Yuehu. The two picked two big baskets. Lu Qingjiu wanted to say how much he could eat, and he used the rest to make persimmon cakes. As a result, she glanced at Bai Yuehu, who was eating persimmons without even peeling her skin, and finally gave up and said, "Hu'er, save some more, let's make persimmon cakes."
"Okay." Bai Yuehu agreed quite simply, "I'll eat one basket."
Only then did Lu Qingjiu feel at ease.
The dried persimmons are easy to preserve and eat. Fortunately, there is not much rain this year, and the sun is very good, so there should be no problem with drying. Lu Qingjiu, on the other hand, made all the things that should have been done in November ahead of schedule, bought meat and casings, and prepared to start making bacon and bacon. This year, he also plans to use beef to make bacon. Beef bacon is much more fragrant than pork. The important thing is that it can be eaten directly without cooking. The meat is moderately salty and chewy, and it is also good to eat as a snack while watching TV.
In addition to bacon, Lu Qingjiu has also made a lot of bacon ribs. These meats can be kept at home for a long time without worrying about them breaking.
After being busy for about a whole month, Lu Qingjiu, who had transformed into a hamster, finally filled their home so much that there was no gap in the refrigerator compartment. After filling it up, Lu Qingjiu cleaned the cellar again, and planned to wait for the temperature to drop a bit, then go buy cabbage and put it in the cellar. Last year, I bought too little, so I had to save it. This year, I must buy more to avoid It's uncomfortable to have no food at the end. In addition to cabbage, sweet potatoes are also essential. This kind of food is easy to store and very hungry. The point is that almost all of the villagers grow their own at home. During the few days of harvest, Bai Yuehu used a few sacks to carry home, and finally collected all the sweet potatoes in the field.
Everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared, and the rest has to wait for the temperature to be more suitable. In late October, Lu Qingjiu miraculously calmed down.
When he had nothing to do, he started watching TV with Yin Xun every day. Bai Yuehu wasn't very interested in this kind of entertainment, and he preferred to lie in the yard and bask in the sun without thinking about anything.
"It's so boring." Yin Xun leaned on the chair, "Can't we have some thrilling and exciting activities?"
Lu Qingjiu glanced at Yin Xun: "What thrilling and exciting activity?"
"I don't know." Yin Xun said, "It's so boring now. If it snows, we'll have to die of boredom."
Lu Qingjiu said, "I have prepared a lot of books, do you want to read them?"
"No." Yin Xun refused.
Lu Qingjiu felt that Yin Xun was just sloppy, and glanced at him sideways: "Then let me teach you an activity that can both pass the time and make money."
Yin Xun: "What, what?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "You wait."
The next day, Lu Qingjiu went to the town to buy tools and put them in front of Yin Xun and Bai Yuehu. When Yin Xun saw this thing, everyone was stunned, but Bai Yuehu didn't know it. He stretched out his hand and poked the ball of thread and two needles in front of him, "What is this?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "Sweater thread."
"Why do you buy sweater threads?" Yin Xun said, "Do you know how to knit sweaters?"
Lu Qingjiu said that he didn't know anything about knitting, but it didn't matter. He also prepared a collection of knitting patterns. If Yin Xun wanted to, he could even download a tutorial online. All in all, methods are better than difficulties.
"Look, if you're bored, you can knit sweaters. When spring begins, you can sell sweaters in town for money." Lu Qingjiu explained it very understandingly, but in fact, he really felt that Yin Xun That look of pooping out is very bad.
Yin Xun: "…"
Feeling that his masculinity was being insulted, Yin Xun strongly rejected Lu Qingjiu's proposal. Lu Qingjiu didn't mind it, but put the sweater needle and the wool ball in a prominent place.
On the afternoon of the third day Yin Xun refused, Lu Qingjiu took a long nap, got up from the bed in a daze, and saw what Yin Xun was doing with his shoulders shrunk, he walked in and saw that Yin Xun was studying the colors. , Hearing his footsteps, he immediately wanted to put down what was in his hand, but it was too late.
"Do you have anything to say?" Lu Qingjiu asked him.
"It's really fragrant." Yin Xun said sadly, pinching his sweater needle.
It's colder and there's a lot less to do, no more weeds growing in the yard and no trace of insects. The ground does not need to be sown or watered, and as the temperature drops, the order of the entire world seems to gradually stagnate.
Winter is also a season for nature to rest, everything is quiet, and even the air exudes a lazy breath.
Lu Qingjiu had been waiting for the first snow. He thought that the first snow would fall at the end of November like last year, but he didn't expect this snow to fall before the beginning of November. Because of the snow, Lu Qingjiu hurried to the town, bought all the vegetables and fruits that should be bought, dragged them home and kept them in the cellar. It's just that this light snow is not accompanied by the upcoming tranquility, but another fire.
There was a fire in the urban area, and the place where the fire started was a relatively remote warehouse. Fortunately, there were no casualties. But this fire is different from ordinary fires. It is said that Zhu Rong found traces of dragons at the fire scene. At first, they thought that the trace belonged to Zhulong, but after Bai Yuehu went, they found that it not only contained Zhulong, but also Lu Qingjiu's grandfather, Aorun.
However, I don't know why the two of them appeared in the same place at the same time, and why this fire was created.
Lu Qingjiu hadn't heard from his grandfather for a long time. Ever since his grandfather was cut off by Zhu Rong, he disappeared from everyone's sight, and no one knew where he went.
The fluttering snowflakes quickly dyed the world in front of him the same color. Lu Qingjiu was wearing thick clothes, but he still felt cold.
Zhu Rong visited Shuifu Village before the mountain was closed, and gave Lu Qingjiu a large bag of ginger tea that is said to be very special. Bai Yuehu said that this ginger tea combines the power of Zhu Rong, which can warm people's bodies and make them feel better. Lu Qingjiu's winter won't be so hard.
Lu Qingjiu shrank into a ball, breathing in white breath: "It's really early for the snow to fall."
Bai Yuehu said: "Well, it's quite early."
Lu Qingjiu said, "I haven't eaten the lamb this year, but it's okay. I have a lot in the refrigerator, but it's not as tasty as the fresh one."
Bai Yuehu said: "It's okay, I like it all."
The first snow was not too big, and the mountain road was barely passable. Lu Qingjiu was still lucky, but the first snow only stopped for a day, and the second snow fell.
This snow is very heavy, fluttering like a curtain, covering the whole world, standing outside, even people who are five meters away can't be seen clearly. As Xueluo fell, Shuifu Village fell into a strange silence, and no villager could be seen outside. Lu Qingjiu was really curious about where the villagers went, so he cheekily climbed through the wall into Li Xiaoyu's house next door, wanting to see what the people in their family were doing in winter.
Because the clothes were too thick, Lu Qingjiu finally managed to climb over. He fell and sat in the snow, leaving a complete butt mark in the snow. After he got up, he looked at Li Xiaoyu's house. In the yard, I was sure that there was no one in Li Xiaoyu's house at all - there was not even a trace of stepping on the snow in the yard. He walked to the window and looked at it, and saw that there was no light in the room.
"Is anyone here? Is anyone here?" Lu Qingjiu called out twice, but no one answered. He reached out and pushed the door, only to find that the door of Li Xiaoyu's house was not locked. opened.
Yin Xun, who was standing beside the fence, hurriedly asked, "Anyone at home?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "No one, it's just that the door of his house is not closed."
Yin Xun said, "Do you want to go in and see?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "There shouldn't be anything wrong." Isn't Bai Yuehu still at home? It's just that he has absolutely no interest in participating in Lu Qingjiu's troublesome behavior like Yin Xun's. He took a handful of fried melon seeds and sat in the yard watching Yin Xun and Lu Qingjiu making a fool of themselves.
"I'm going in." Lu Qingjiu gathered up his courage.
He pushed in the door and saw that the room was dark and it didn't look like anyone was there. At this moment, there was no power outage in the village. Lu Qingjiu touched the switch on the wall next to him. After turning it on, the house was enveloped by warm lights.
Although there was light, there was still no one in sight. Lu Qingjiu thought that the Li Xiaoyu family had just disappeared, until he walked near the bedroom, glanced inside, and was taken aback by the scene in the bedroom. I saw a few people lying upright on the bed in the bedroom. Those people were wearing thin autumn clothes without any cold-proof clothes, and they just lay on the bed. And these people are clearly Li Xiaoyu's family. It seems that the villagers of Shuifu Village did not disappear in the winter, but just lay on the bed for a winter, until the warm spring breeze melted the icy snow before they would get up and continue their activities.
Seeing this scene, Lu Qingjiu turned around and left, and quickly climbed back from the fence to his home.
Yin Xun said, "What did you see?"
Lu Qingjiu rubbed his frozen red hands and described the situation in the room.
Yin Xun felt a little uncomfortable, saying that they would just lie in the house for the winter...
"Yeah." Lu Qingjiu said, "No wonder the whole village is so quiet in winter. I thought last year that everyone was afraid of the cold and didn't want to go out..." As he was talking, Bai Yuehu, who was sitting next to him, stretched out his hand. He wrapped Lu Qingjiu's icy cold hand in his palm, his palm was hot, and after rubbing it slowly, Lu Qingjiu's hand quickly recovered the temperature.
"Enough?" Bai Yuehu asked.
"Enough." Lu Qingjiu replied obediently.
"When you're done, go back to the house and leave." Bai Yuehu said, "It's too cold outside, and it's going to snow again later."
Lu Qingjiu responded, but his feet didn't move. He was worried that if it snowed again, he might not even be able to go out the door. He might as well take advantage of the current temperature and stand outside for a while to get some fresh air. How could Bai Yuehu not see Lu Qingjiu's careful thoughts, he bent his arm and hugged Lu Qingjiu directly, Lu Qingjiu was startled by Bai Yuehu's actions, and hurriedly said, "Don't... don't me walk on my own!"
Bai Yuehu didn't listen at all, she hugged Lu Qingjiu and entered the room, and closed the door with one hand.
Yin Xun stood outside the door and felt that his heart was really cold. It's okay for his mother's body to be cold. Bai Yuehu and Lu Qingjiu had to feed him dog food, which made his fragile heart also cold.
Being carried into the house, Lu Qingjiu was stuffed with a large bowl of ginger soup by Bai Yuehu, and then under Bai Yuehu's stare, Lu Qingjiu could only drink it all. Although Bai Yuehu usually doesn't care about anything, when it comes to Lu Qingjiu's health, he is not at all sloppy.
Lu Qingjiu's body quickly warmed up, and his cheeks were flushed red. He put down the bowl and said, "When will this winter end?" To be honest, when I think about the whole few months, I have to put most of the When the time was spent in the house, he felt uncomfortable.
Bai Yuehu said: "This winter will be a little long."
Lu Qingjiu sighed.
Bai Yuehu said: "But I will always be with you."
Hearing this, Lu Qingjiu couldn't help laughing. It just so happened that Yin Xun came in from outside the house, and he said casually, "Oh, the child is already so old, so don't be ashamed to say this."
Yin Xun: "????" You two are not finished yet.
Soon, the purchased generators came in handy. The public power supply was cut off within a few days of the snow falling. The TV signal and network cable also collapsed together with the public power supply. Less than one Within months, they were completely isolated from the world.
Yin Xun was the one who found his interest. He knitted sweaters with gusto, and even took out a tape measure to measure Lu Qingjiu's height.
Lu Qingjiu's mood is very complicated. Is knitting sweaters so fun
"Would you like to try it?" Yin Xun said, "It's really addicting."
Lu Qingjiu: "...Try?"
Yin Xun: "Come, come, let me teach you, let's start like this..."
Bai Yuehu sitting next to him: "..." Is it really fun
After more than a month, when Zhu Rong came to Shuifu Village to find Bai Yuehu for some business, he knocked on the door and no one answered. After coming in directly, he saw three people sitting on the kang with their heads bowed. Happy big man knitting sweater. They raised their heads when they heard the sound, and three pairs of eyes fell on Zhu Rong at the same time.
"... disturbing you?" Zhu Rong didn't know what to say.
Lu Qingjiu silently put down the sweater in his hand. He has been trying to knit a pair of earmuffs for Bai Yuehu's furry ears these days. Said: "No, no, if you have anything, just say it directly."
Zhu Rong was silent for a moment: "It's not a big deal."
Bai Yuehu continued when he heard that there was nothing serious, and focused on the sweater needle in front of him. He planned to knit a sweater for Lu Qingjiu. Lu Qingjiu earned all the money at home, and he usually brought fresh blood at most. When I came back with food, there was nothing I could give to Lu Qingjiu. Now I suddenly found out that I had a special gift for my lover, and I was naturally very happy. As for what Zhu Rong did—it didn’t matter.
The room was quiet for a moment, and the atmosphere became more and more embarrassing. In the end, Lu Qingjiu couldn't take it anymore. He got up with an embarrassed smile and asked Zhu Rong if he wanted to have lunch before leaving. He just planned to do it.
Zhu Rong thought about it and agreed.
Bai Yuehu was a little unhappy when he heard that Zhu Rong was going to have lunch here, but Zhu Rong was invited by Lu Qingjiu, so he couldn't drive him out directly, so he looked at him with a bad look. Zhu Rong had long been accustomed to Bai Yuehu's food protection, so he didn't care about it at all, and even sat down beside Lu Qingjiu naturally.
"Let's have pork stewed vermicelli today." Lu Qingjiu was thinking about the recipe, "Let's mix a piece of shredded kelp with cold, and stir-fry a piece of bacon..."
Zhu Rong said: "It's all right, you can do whatever you want, how easy it is."
"Then let's talk first, Yin Xun, come and help me." Lu Qingjiu called Yin Xun and left the room alone to Bai Yuehu and Yin Xun.
"Do you like life in the human world?" Zhu Rong asked after Lu Qingjiu left.
"You don't like it?" Bai Yuehu asked back.
Zhu Rong smiled and said, "Of course I like it." Otherwise, he would not have worked so hard to maintain all this.
"What happened?" Bai Yuehu asked.
Zhu Rong sighed, a little tired between his eyes, he said, "It's nothing major."
Bai Yuehu frowned slightly, not believing Zhu Rong's answer, but Zhu Rong did not intend to continue speaking, the two remained silent until Lu Qingjiu came in to say that the meal was ready, and then broke the silence.
"I'm very happy to see you like this." Zhu Rong said at the end, "It would be great if all the dragons could meet the right person like you."
It's a pity that miracles are not miracles if they keep happening.
The author has something to say: Bai Yuehu: This is our token of love!
Lu Qingjiu took the sweater and changed it in a complicated mood.
