"Sister, don't you feel cold? You see I'm shivering with cold. "He is dressed very thickly, he can feel cold, every winter, only my sister is the least afraid of the cold, this year I actually have to go out to build a snowman, that's not still cold, he resolutely does not go out.

"It's not cold. I wore thick ones. "The little brother forgot about her without asking, she is different from them, she has Gu Wu in her body, and she is not as obvious as they feel, but she can't say it, she can only find an excuse to perfunctory the past.

"I'm wearing thick clothes, but I'm still cold."

"That's probably because people's physique is different, I'm not afraid of the cold, you are afraid of the cold." Afraid that her younger brother would continue to struggle with this problem, she didn't ask her younger brother to go out together, "If it's really cold and unbearable, don't go out, if you get sick because you go out, the gains outweigh the losses." ”

"Then I'm not going out, I'll go to the window and watch you build a snowman." As soon as Qiao Xi finished speaking, Qiao Bai hid in the house, the room was warm, and there was a charcoal pot burning inside.

Qiao Xi didn't force it, and built a snowman in the snow alone, and after a while, three snowmen stood there.

Seeing my sister holding charcoal, I asked curiously through the window, "Sister, what are you doing with charcoal?" ”

"Where does such a snowman look like a human, since it is a human, it has to have eyes, nose, and mouth, you see, is this more like." He embed a few pieces of black charcoal in his hand on the snowman's face, and used leaves and a small wooden strip as his nose and mouth.

"How? It doesn't look like it now......" Qiao Xi crossed his waist with one hand, raised his chin slightly, and looked at the little brother standing at the window with a smug expression.

"Like, very like, this is the big brother, this is the sister, and this little one is me." Qiao Bai said excitedly.

"Hey, you guessed."

"Of course, aren't you stacking three against us?"

"You're smart."

"Silly girl, hurry up and get into the house, don't catch a cold." Qiao Song came out of the kitchen with food at this time.

"Got it, big brother." He followed Qiao Song into the house.

It snowed for several days in a row, but fortunately, they greeted Juxian Lou in advance, otherwise they would not be able to supply it this day.

I don't know when I will be able to stop, but I'm afraid that there will be a snowstorm if it goes on like this.

"Big brother, do you think it will be a disaster if you go on like this?" Qiao Xi asked with some concern.

"I don't know, I've had it in previous years, but it's possible that you have concerns." This year's snow is indeed heavier than usual, and if there is a snow disaster, it is impossible to tell how many people will die.

"Big brother, while we can still go out now, let's prepare more food or something, so as not to have nothing to eat when we get it." When the snow closes the road, they are far away from the town, and the problem of food and clothing will become a difficult matter, and it is likely that such a thing as starvation will happen.

"Okay, let's go to town tomorrow and get more supplies." I don't know how many days it will take, but I have to buy more of this food, it's a big deal.

"Hmm. I'm going to do something. "Fortunately, she bought cloth and cotton before, and she can't make anything else, so let's make two gloves and ear protection for the eldest brother, and they can defend themselves when they go out tomorrow.

Just do it, soon Qiao Xi took out the needle and thread, cloth, and cotton, according to the size of the eldest brother, the younger brother and his own hands, the painting was reduced, and it was filled with cotton, and the two brothers couldn't understand what she was doing until it was finally completed, and they still didn't see what it was for, and there were five fingers like something.

"Sister, what is this? Is it on the hands? Qiao Bai guessed.

"Our little brother is so smart, this is on the hands, used to keep the hands warm, and we are not afraid of freezing our hands when we go out in winter. Come on, try it. ”

Qiao Xi handed the gloves to his younger brother, he didn't let his sister teach him after he took them, he was smart enough to put on the gloves, Qiao Bai flipped left and right with a novel face, "Sister, this is good, my fingers are not cold at all." ”

"Warm, when the ear protector is made, the ears don't have to be frozen. The whole body is warm. Qiao Xi made persistent efforts and made the gloves and ear protectors of the three people before going to bed.

The little brother is very happy, and he even wears it when he goes to bed at night, and it is useless to persuade him.

In the early morning when it snows, it is always foggy, and all you see is snow.

Qiao Song and Qiao Xi were armed layer by layer, and they also wore ear protection and gloves, and told their younger brother not to go out before going out.

The road outside had a thick layer of snow up to their calves, and by the time they reached the town, their shoes were already soaked and cold.

The two of them went their separate ways, one went to buy grain, the other went to buy spices, Qiao Xi went into the rice grain store, bought a lot of rice and white noodles, asked the guy to pack it in two bags, and asked him to help take it to the alley on the side, and when there was no one, Qiao Xi looked around, and found nothing unusual, so he put half of the grain into the storage ring, and the other half waited for her eldest brother to move, she bought a month's supply, which should be enough.

didn't wait long, Qiao Song came to the outside of the grain store, and before he could go in, he was stopped by Xiaomei, "Xiaomei, why are you waiting for me here, how cold it is outside." ”

"Big brother, I saw Gao's family, and I was afraid of being entangled by her, so I asked the guy from the grain store to move the rice grain here." Qiao Xi directly lifted the Gao family out, so that the eldest brother would not be held accountable for waiting outside.

"Hey...... Okay, I'll carry these, let's go back quickly. "This Gao family is really, their family doesn't have much to do with her, why do they like to get along with them, and they talk nonsense everywhere.

But fortunately, Yuri Zheng came forward to say a few words later, and the Gao family stopped, but it also made the little sister hide when she saw her.

"Hmm."

When I passed by the dim sum shop, I bought some pastries for my younger brother to go back to satisfy my hunger, and then I walked to the entrance of the town, and happened to meet Qiao Siye driving an ox cart to go back.

"Grandpa Lin, let's take your car." Qiao Xi immediately stopped Qiao Siye.

"How did you get out on such a cold day?" If it weren't for the fact that Gao had to come to the town today and gave him a lot of money, he wouldn't be ready to go out, and it had been raining for several days, and no one had gone to the town, so it would have been better to stay at home comfortably.

"The snow is a bit long, and my sister and I are worried that it will turn into a snow disaster if it goes down like this, and the road will definitely be difficult to walk, and the food will not be able to be transported in, so we want to save more food." If it really becomes a snow disaster, some of the days that follow will be bitter, and prices will definitely rise, so it is better to prepare for a rainy day.

It's best if there is no snow disaster, and you don't have to worry about buying too much, and you have to eat anyway.

If it does, then their preparation will be a timely rain.

"......" Fourth Master Qiao is also thinking about what Qiao Song said, it is always right to prepare, if it really happens, it will be too late.

"Komatsu, see if you can wait for me, I'll also go buy some to prepare, otherwise I really can't save the fire from the far water." Qiao Siye and Qiao Song discussed.

"It's okay, you go get busy first, we'll wait for you here for a while."

"Hey, I'll be back soon."

Qiao Siye said that he would come back soon, and after a while, they had already embarked on the road back to Qiaojia Village.

When they got home, Qiao Bai had already boiled hot water and waited for them, and the two brothers and sisters took a hot bath, warmed up a lot, and sat by the charcoal basin to roast the fire.

Not long after they returned, the wind and snow outside the house were getting heavier and heavier, and if they continued like this, something would definitely happen.

"Big brother, you see that the sky has changed." Qiao Xi was glad on his face, if it was one day later, they wouldn't be able to get out.

"yes, it looks like you've really been right." Qiao Song looked worried, but fortunately, their house was repaired together when the courtyard wall was being built, so they didn't have to worry too much.

"Isn't this what I like to be a crow's mouth, and what I say will come true." In order to adjust the atmosphere, Qiao Xi said this deliberately.

"What nonsense, God's business, how can we call the shots." Qiao Song glared at the little sister fiercely and let her talk nonsense.

"Let's liven up the atmosphere, don't be so serious." She's just saying it, and she can't take it seriously.

"Jokes can't be said either. Go to bed early. "It's so cold, it's better to cover the quilt, it's much warmer.

That night, a loud noise was heard, and then the dogs in the village began to bark wildly, and in a short time they heard a terrible scream.

In the quiet village in the wind and snow, all of a sudden, every house was lit up.

Qiao Xi covered herself in the quilt and listened quietly, she didn't plan to join in the fun, even if their family went out, they wouldn't be able to get anything good, maybe they would be said to be adding to the chaos, who made their family children.

Soon she heard a noise in the room of the eldest brother, and hid in the bed and shouted, "Big brother." ”

Qiao Song originally wanted to go out quietly to have a look, but he didn't expect his sister to wake up too, it seems that it is a little impossible to go out, "Little sister, you also heard it." ”

"Well, big brother, don't go and make trouble for them." Her eldest brother is only twelve years old, and he is only a fifth or sixth grade student in the Celestial Empire, and he is dealing with those things with other adults.

"I'll just go and see what's going on, and we'll help if I can." He knows how much he is capable of, and he knows that he still has a huge responsibility, so how can he be nonsense.

"It's such a cold day, it will be better for us to pass for a while, probably they are all gone, let's wait for tomorrow." Qiao Xi made up her mind not to let her brother go out.

"Little sister." Qiao Song was also helpless.

"Big brother, the wind and snow outside are so big, even adults can't bear it, what can you do?" It's not that she hits the big brother, but the fact that he can't help anything at all.

"I ...... "Forget it, forget it, he just doesn't go out." Okay, I'm not going out, you can sleep. ”

"Okay, don't go out secretly, my ears are good." Qiao Xi didn't forget to threaten.

"Got it, housekeeper."
