Chapter 502: Resisting the Spring Cold
Secretly, they will still secretly send clothes and quilts over, and they will also stuff some money into Huo Jinli's house, hoping that Huo Jinli and Chi Taotao can let them stay in the warehouse for a longer time, so that they will not have nowhere to go.
Chi Tao Tao naturally accepted it, and tried to help as much as he could.
She also told the female classmates what their parents were doing behind their backs.
Because of this, these female classmates still have contact with their parents, but these connections are all behind the scenes, but they have not yet been recognized openly on the surface.
Under the pressure of various long-tongued women in the village, he could only temporarily live in the warehouse of Chi Taotao's house.
After Huo Jinli finished giving the quilts to these girls, he glanced in the direction of the orchard, and then slowly returned to his room.
Back in the room, Chi Taotao was still obediently nestled in the quilt, and her posture was exactly the same as when she left.
Huo Jinli laughed: "Why are you so well-behaved now?"
"I'm afraid you're going to bully me. Chi Tao Momo hid in the quilt, and when she spoke, she was sullen and cute.
The corners of Huo Jinli's mouth curled dangerously, he first turned around and closed the door, and then looked back at Chi Taotao: "Even if you are like this, I will bully you." ”
"No!" Chi Momo looked anxiously.
"Why not?" Huo Jinli unhurriedly took off one of his clothes and took a step forward.
"Don't don't, don't, Brother Li!" Chi Taotao retreated again and again: "I'm working so hard today, I'm moving things, and I'm tired of laying film, I really just want to have a good rest tonight." ”
Huo Jinli's movements were a little disappointed, but thinking about Chi Taotao, she was really tired today, so she didn't want to embarrass Chi Taotao.
He sighed, put his clothes back on, and then said regretfully, "Okay, I'll let you go today." ”
Chi Taotao was so grateful that she almost cried: "Brother Jinli, you are really good!"
"Only found out now?" Huo Jinli went to the bed to cover the quilt, hugged Chi Taotao's waist and said with a low smile.
Chi Taotao happily lay in Huo Jinli's arms, and said coquettishly: "I've always found out, Brother Jinli is the best." ”
Huo Jinli had a satisfied smile on the corner of his mouth, and was about to fall asleep, when suddenly Huo Jinli remembered something and asked, "Xiao Tao, the cold protection measures in your orchard should be able to resist this spring cold, right?"
Chi Taotao was silent for a while: "Why do you suddenly ask that? Is there something wrong?"
Huo Jinli nodded: "The temperature has dropped too quickly tonight, at least three or four degrees worse than yesterday, and I guess this may not be the lowest temperature." ”
Chi Taotao's expression gradually turned pale, her sleepiness faded instantly, and now it was extremely cold, guessing that it was almost between 1 degree and minus 5 degrees.
Normally, it would have snowed under this circumstance, but now Huo Jinli said that this is not the lowest temperature.
Chi Taotao thought of her little sapling, and the mood she had just made a fuss was instantly shattered.
When it was over, she thought to herself, would the little sapling she had just planted survive?
That's my own hard work in the past few months! If it is ruined in this spring cold, it will really be a loss of money.
As soon as she thought of this, Chi Taotao longed to wrap herself in a quilt and rush to the orchard and advance and retreat with her own little saplings, as if as long as she looked at these little saplings, they would be a little better.
Huo Jinli looked at Chi Taotao, from the initial dazed to anxious to the point of being uneasy, and began to regret saying those words a little.
Originally, I just wanted Chi Taotao to be mentally prepared, but I didn't expect Chi Taotao to be uncomfortable like this.
"What are you going to do?" Huo Jinli saw Chi Taotao get up and lie down again, and he was tired of getting up and lying down again.
Chi Taotao clutched the quilt tightly with her hand, and finally asked in a hoarse voice, "Brother Jinli, can I go to the orchard now?"
"What are you looking at? Sleep. Huo Jinli frowned, and then hugged Chi Taotao and pressed her back to the bed: "If you have done everything you need to do, what can you do in the past?"
Chi Taotao's expression was uncomfortable and entangled: "But, but I just want to go over and guard, do you know, how much money, time and energy did Qingling and I spend on these apple seedlings?
"I know. Huo Jinli pressed Chi Taotao's head to prevent him from moving: "This is a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster, we can't stop it, you can do everything you can do, don't think too much." ”
Chi Taotao no longer struggled, buried her head in Huo Jinli's chest, and her voice was a little trembling: "Can they survive this spring cold?"
"Yes, don't worry. Huo Jinli didn't know if he could, but in order to comfort Chi Taotao, he could only say yes.
Chi Taotao bit her lip, her heart was surging with disappointment and fear, and she began to pray and pray.
Huo Jinli hugged Chi Taotao tightly, listening to Chi Taotao whispering something, he sighed again.
I didn't say it if I knew it, otherwise Chi Taotao couldn't sleep like this now, and she kept chanting words.
Chi Taotao is not easy to bear, Huo Jinli is not comfortable, he quietly hugged Chi Taotao full of regret.
Fortunately, in the end, Chi Taotao fell asleep by herself when she read it, and Huo Jinli gradually relaxed when she saw Chi Taotao asleep.
Tossed until the middle of the night, she fell asleep and was really worried.
Huo Jinli only felt that his arms exposed in the outside world were cold, and he had goosebumps all over his body.
Huo Jinli looked serious, and silently withdrew his hand into his quilt, it was too cold, it was already cold to this extent this night alone.
Even in the winter night, it was not so cold, Huo Jinli wrapped the quilt on his body tightly, and wrapped himself and Chi Tao Tao Tao tightly.
Chi Tao Tao is weak, because it is impossible to heat herself only by her own ability, and if there is no long-term heating for her, she will fall asleep and fall asleep to sleep cold.
So Huo Jinli has been holding Chi Taotao to heat her, and Chi Taotao is also worried about it today, so she doesn't hold herself like usual when she sleeps.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and this is only the time of this night to feel the cold wind coming, if it is still this temperature tomorrow morning, let alone the small saplings, the mature trees will be planted in this spring cold.
Huo Jinli felt distressed when he remembered that Chi Taotao was sitting uneasy just now.
He doesn't feel sorry for those apple trees, because it is natural to have gains and losses in business, plus this is a natural disaster, and everyone can't resist it, so the loss is definitely not just Chi Taotao, naturally he doesn't have to care too much.
But he couldn't see Chi Taotao's sad appearance.
Huo Jinli looked out of the window, there was not even a little moonlight, only the wind god who was getting more and more anxious, which sounded quite terrifying.
Huo Jinli was completely sleepy, lying on the bed and tossing and turning just couldn't sleep.
The breathing sound of Chi Taotao next to him had gradually stabilized, and Huo Jinli dropped a gentle kiss on Chi Taotao's forehead.
Then he got up lightly and tucked up Chi Taotao's quilt.
Huo Jinli found a thicker cotton coat and gloves to put on, filled the thermos kettle with hot water, took a box of cigarettes and left in a hurry.
It didn't take long for Huo Jinli's figure to appear in the orchard.
"Tsk, it's still snowing when it's so cold and haunted?" Huo Jinli sat near the apple sapling, and began to smoke with his free hand.
Not long after this hand was taken out, it was so cold that I couldn't even pick up a cigarette.
Huo Jinli was originally not afraid of the cold, but he was also shivering by the sudden spring cold.
"It's more than ten degrees below zero, and if it doesn't snow, these seedlings are really going to die. Huo Jinli frowned, if it snowed, it would be fine, and snow could also keep warm.
Because the minimum temperature of snow is zero, no matter how low it is on the surface, there will always be only zero degrees buried in the snow.
If it doesn't snow, it's hard to say, and I don't know if these saplings can resist the temperature of more than ten degrees below zero.
And it's just the night of the first day, I don't know if the temperature will get lower and lower in the next few days.
Huo Jinli looked at this precarious orchard melancholy, and one night passed like this.
Chi Taotao didn't touch Huo Jinli when she got up in the morning, she thought Huo Jinli was cooking breakfast or something outside, until she searched all over the family and didn't see Huo Jinli, she was a little confused.
What is Huo Jinli doing when he goes out so early?
She hurriedly made breakfast, and after she finished eating, she packed up Huo Jinli's share, and prepared to go out to find someone.
Chi Taotao walked around all the places that Huo Jinli frequented and didn't find her, so she began to panic a little, where did Huo Jinli go? Did he go back to work in advance? But his luggage was all there.
Just as Chi Taotao was in a hurry, all of a sudden, Chi Taotao thought of something, and the next second she began to run towards the orchard.
After a while, when he arrived at the orchard, Chi Taotao searched left and right, and sure enough, he saw Huo Jinli sleeping under an apple tree.
Huo Jinli's thermos cup was opened, the water in it had been almost drunk, there was still a cigarette butt in his hand, and his clothes were wrapped tightly.
Chi Taotao shouted anxiously: "Brother Jinli, you scared me to death." ”
Huo Jinli slept lightly, and was shouted by Chi Taotao, and woke up immediately.
He saw Chi Tao Tao running towards him and wanted to smile, but his face and the hand that was smoking were so cold that it was a little difficult to move.
"Brother Jinli, you won't stay here all night, will you?" Chi Taotao hurriedly ran to Huo Jinli's side and wanted to pull him up.
Huo Jinli coughed: "I didn't come out all night, I couldn't sleep in the second half of the night, I came to see the orchard." ”
"You're stupid! You told me not to run out, what are you doing now!" Chi Taotao held Huo Jinli's hand that was frozen like an ice cube and said distressedly: "What if someone freezes and something happens!"
"It's okay, it's not freezing to give you a happy place. Huo Jinli grinned.
"You're still joking. Chi Taotao was extremely uncomfortable, and felt that she was too attached to the orchard, so Huo Jinli would come out in the middle of the night.
Knowing that Chi Taotao was really distressed, Huo Jinli sighed and hugged Chi Taotao into his arms, "Okay, okay, I was wrong, Xiao Tao, I want to say that the orchard ......"
