However, before they could play, the adults pulled them home by the ears.
The snow lasted for three days.
When the snow stopped, it was as if the entire world had turned white. The entire family worked to clean up the snow in the courtyard.
Zhou Yu even climbed up to the roof and shoveled the snow off to prevent the roof from being crushed by the snow.
It was unknown if it was because of the approaching new year or because of the heavy snow, but the village became a little livelier.
The children, who had been trapped at home for a few days because of the snow, were bored out of their minds. As soon as the snow stopped, they ran out to play.
They rolled around in the snow in small groups.
Zhou Junjun carried his textbooks and went to school instead.
He was really hardworking. Even though it snowed heavily, he went to school every day.
The weather was getting colder these days and Zhou Junjun had frostbite on his hands and feet.
Zhang Lan’s heart ached, so she used the rabbit skin they picked up on the mountain in autumn to make knee pads for him.
Zhou Xiaoli used small glass bottles in the alternate space and asked Zhang Lan to cover them tightly with a cloth before filling them with hot water. She made them into a hot water bottle for Zhou Junjun.
Before Zhou Junjun left the house, Zhang Lan instructed, “Keep this for yourself and don’t let others see it.”
It was mainly because the glass bottle inside may attract unnecessary trouble.
“Mother, don’t worry. I’ll be careful.”
Zhou Junjun’s heart was warmed by his family’s concern. He took his books, carried the hot water bottle, and jogged out of the house.
The low temperature for the past few days had frozen the river in the village.
The children in the village could not wait to go to the river to play, catch fish, and skate. It was very lively.
Even Zhou Xiaoyu was itching to play by the river every day. 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎
However, a few troublemakers in the village went to the river to play when the temperature was not that cold a few days ago. They fell into the river as the ice had not frozen over yet.
Fortunately, there were adults by the river at that time, so nothing unfortunate happened.
Therefore, Zhou Yu and Zhang Lan refused to let Zhou Xiaoyu play by the river.
Now that a thick layer of ice had frosted over the river, Zhou Xiaoyu pestered Zhou Yu to bring her to the river to catch fish. They created a fishing hole and indeed caught two fishes.
At night, Zhang Lan stewed fish soup for them to drink.
When it started snowing heavily, her master gave Zhou Xiaoli and Wei Chiyu a break. Now that the snow had stopped, she would go up the mountain every day.
In the blink of an eye, it was the Laba Festival. New Year was getting closer.
Snow began to fall early in the morning.
Zhang Lan woke up early and cooked a thick pot of eight-treasure porridge. It was sumptuous. She added peanuts, red dates, red beans, cinnamon, and so on, and cooked a huge pot of it.
She even made the usual Laba garlic. The festive atmosphere was palpable.
Zhou Xiaoli came out of the room wearing a thick winter coat and a red cloak. When she came into contact with the cold air, she couldn’t help but sniffle.
Zhou Yu and Wei Chiyu were up and were warming wine by the fire in the kitchen.
Zhou Xiaoli went into the kitchen and took a sip of hot wine to warm herself up.
Zhang Lan glared at Zhou Yu. “Look at you. Why are you drinking hot wine early in the morning? You even made the two children drink with you on an empty stomach. You’re not allowed to drink anymore. Your stomachs will hurt later.”
Faced with his wife’s reprimand, Zhou Yu grinned and got up to help Zhang Lan prepare the dumpling filling for lunch.
Zhou Xiaoli snickered and was about to secretly drink another cup when Wei
Chiyu snatched it away.
Zhou Xiaoli immediately glared at him in a threatening manner.
However, Wei Chiyu was not afraid at all. He slowly put down the wine cup and said with a smile, “Aunt, Little Li said that she still wants to drink.”
Zhou Xiaoli was instantly furious and hurriedly said, “Mother, I didn’t. He was being shameless. Wei Chiyu wanted to drink it.”
After saying that, she raised her leg to kick him.
Wei Chiyu reached out and grabbed her ankle. Zhou Xiaoli threw another punch, but it was blocked by Wei Chiyu.
Looking at the two children playing in front of her, Zhang Lan shook her head and suddenly thought of something.
“Oh, right. Li’er, go with Chiyu and invite your master to come down the mountain. It’s a festival afterall, don’t let your master be all alone on the mountain..”
