Hajran's life in the Forbidden City passed by day by day. The weather is getting colder and colder day by day, and even the leaves are gradually turning yellow and starting to fall, and winter is coming.

In the afternoon of this day, the sky was overcast, and Hajlan sat at the window and looked out, the sky seemed extremely dark, and it became more and more bitterly cold, so he said to Mama Geffhe, who was sitting beside him doing needlework: "Mama, it is getting dark, and I am afraid that I will break my eyes when I do needlework, so let's stop here." Why don't we think about what delicious meal we are going to prepare tonight? ”

Hearing this, Mama Geffohe also put down the things in her hand: "That's right, what do Gege want to eat at night?" Why don't you make noodles? It's still early, and it's still too late to start making a meeting right away. How about making meatballs at noon today, making a big pot of soup and topping it with ginger and chopped green onions? And the kind of sun poached egg that Gege said last time, make three and add it to the soup, right? ”

Hajlan thought for a moment and nodded: "It's better to beat two eggs in it when mixing noodles, and the noodles may taste better." For side dishes, let's get some braised beef! ”

Mama Geffohe nodded and said, "Just do as Gege said, Mama will go to the small kitchen to do it." With that, he packed up the sewing basket.

At this time, I heard an exclamation from the tenth elder brother outside the door: "Hajlan, come and see, it's snowing!" Hajlan hurriedly walked out, and sure enough, she saw that the north wind swept the whole door with flakes of snow, and a snowflake fell in front of Hajlan, and she reached out to touch it, but saw it turn into water in her hand.

Outside the house, the ninth elder brother, who was standing side by side with the tenth elder brother, looked at the snowflakes and said: "The wind is very cold this year, and the winter is coming very early. ”

Brother Ten said with a smile: "Brother Nine, it's snowing, we can have a snowball fight and build a snowman." I was itchy last year, but my mother said that I was still too young to play, so I was afraid that I would freeze and get sick, alas! But this year, I've gone into the study, and I'm a year older, so there's no reason for my mother to stop me. Hahaha, when the snow is thick, we can have a good time! ”

Mama Gefohe took Hajilan's robe in her hand and lifted the curtain and went out of the house, and hurriedly put on the robe for Hajilan, who ran out as soon as she heard the tenth elder brother say that it was snowing, and said, "Ouch, Gege, it's cold outside, be careful of freezing, come into the house quickly!" Oh, the slave maid gave the ninth elder brother, and the tenth elder brother greeted him. ”

The tenth elder brother pushed his small shoulder against the ninth elder brother, and muttered in a low voice: "What a verbose grandmother!" ”

The ninth elder brother smiled, and gently said to Ge Fohe Mama, who was slow to greet him and the tenth elder brother: "Mama, get up!" ”

After Mama Gefhe got up respectfully, she anxiously let Hajlan, the Ninth Elder Brother and the Tenth Elder Brother into the house, keeping the biting cold wind out of the door.

Entering the house, Mama Gefhe hurriedly asked the ninth elder brother, the tenth elder brother and Hajlan to sit on the warm kang, bowed down and said, "Ninth elder brother, tenth elder brother, Gege, Mama go get hot soup to warm up your body, okay?" ”

Brother Jiu smiled: "Mama, no need. The master and the tenth brother have just drunk the warm hot ** from Huangdo Luo Mama, and now their bodies are still hot. ”

Brother Shi's eyes were shining and he stared at Mama Gefohe and asked, "Mama, what are you going to do tonight?" ”

Mama Ge Fohe smiled and said: "Back to Brother Shi, Mama is going to make meatball soup and send noodles tonight, and then pair it with mutton and sun poached eggs, it can be warm and warm after eating it on such a cold day!" ”

Brother Ten smiled and said, "Mama, make more, Master and Brother Jiu are also eating here!" ”

Mama Gefohe replied, "Yes, Brother Ten. ”

Brother Jiu thought for a while and said, "Hajlan, I'll ask Huang Duo Luo Ma if you want to try the food made by Huang Duo Luo Mama, if Huang Duo Luo Ma agrees, it can be lively tonight." ”

Hajlan nodded and said secretly: "I see that the ninth elder brother is small, but he can't stand this smart and precocious wisdom!" But he's kind of thinking about me! ”

Mama Gefohe saw Hajlan nodding, and the little attendant beside Brother Jiu ran to the main hall of Cining Palace after Brother Jiu signaled, so she said: "Brother Jiu, Brother Ten, Gege, Mama will make noodles and soup first." After saying the salute, after Brother Jiu waved his hand, he lifted the curtain and went out to eat.

Brother Ten pointed out the window and said: "Brother Nine, Hajilan, come and see, it's so big snow, it was just a little bit at first, but I didn't expect the sky to get darker and darker, and the snow is getting bigger and bigger, I'm afraid that after a while, the snow will be thick." ”

Brother Jiu moved to the window and looked at the white expanse outside the window. He sat there quietly with his chin propped up, staring at the white expanse outside the window with his eyes blurred, and muttered: "The silver fly that flies meandering, and the song that should be Chen is beautiful." According to the immortal flow of dew, the ointment of the white phoenix is savored. …… The noble ,...... of the merciful spirit"

The tenth elder brother asked, "Hey, ninth brother, what are you muttering about!" ”

Brother Jiu replied: "A poem by Fu Shan and Fu Qing Lord Yongbing! Mmmm, I remember that he had a "Ice Lantern Poem" 'The silver sea is blurred in the sky and the water is light, and the Guanghan Palace is full of makeup. The jade pot has a little tears, dripping off the world's fireworks sausage. Chisel clear light to the ancients, beetle braiding bed white phosphorus. Forgetting to remember this frequently is worthy of the poverty of the former sages. 'Shall we try to make an ice lantern?' ”

As soon as Hajlan heard the poem of the famous Fu Qingzhu in Liang Yusheng's martial arts novels, Hajlan said secretly: "Is this still a child? It's only been a few days since I've been in the study! Did you learn this when you first started school? ”

When the tenth elder brother heard this, he immediately said: "Okay, ninth brother, Hajilan, the master said that the ice and snow are given by God, let's make ice lanterns together and build snowmen!" Oh, it's fun to think about this snowy day! Brother Jiu, how to do the ice lantern? ”

Brother Nine looked at Brother Ten with a puzzled face and Hajilan with bright big eyes blinking curiously, Brother Nine couldn't help but raise his head, straighten his chest, and said very proudly: "It is estimated that it will snow in the next few days, I specially found some books to see if there are any very interesting things to play on a snowy day, no, the ice lantern is a very interesting thing unique to a snowy day." However, Su Shi has a poem's paper and finally feels shallow, and he never knows that he has to bow to it. We'll talk about doing it together, but we might have to experiment to make a better ice lantern! ”

When Brother Ten heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, his interest doubled, and he said happily: "Okay, Brother Jiu, let's do it tomorrow, it's done during the day, and you can light the lights to play at night!." ”

Brother Jiu nodded and said, "God, this heavy snow today is really too face-saving, and we will be able to make ice lanterns tomorrow." Hajilan, Brother Nine must make a good ice lantern for you! ”

Although he has seen the ingenious ice lanterns and ice sculptures in modern times, Hajlan is still full of expectations for what kind of ice lanterns they can make. Hajlan smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Brother Jiu, Hajlan will also make ice lanterns together!" ”

Brother Jiu smiled and nodded.
