Ah Li thought seriously for a moment and explained, "We seem to be in some trouble. ”

"It's okay, with Brother Ah Li, Jiu'er is not afraid of anything." Jiu'er said sweetly.

Wrapped tightly in the quilt, she now feels less cold.

Subconsciously looked outside, only to see a snowy field outside the gate, and an old man sitting at the door, the old man shrunk and roasted the fire.

Maybe it was because it was too cold, and he shook his legs from time to time.

Seeing this, Jiu'er asked curiously: "Brother Ah Li, have we come to the northern country?" ”

"I don't know, I don't know, it may have been to the north, or it may have been somewhere at the poles." Ah Li quipped.

In fact, he didn't know where he had taken Jiu'er, only that he was in some trouble now, and it was impossible to leave smoothly.

Rubbing Jiu'er's head, he comforted and said, "You have a good rest here now, I'll go outside to inquire, and wait for me to come back." ”

"Well, then~ Brother Ah Li is going to come back soon~" Jiu'er said glutinously.

Clutching the quilt tightly, my mood began to become nervous and anxious.

Looking at the direction he left, Jiu'er muttered in a low voice: "Brother Ah Li is wearing so little, aren't you afraid of the cold?" ”

Outside the door, after the uncle saw Ah Li leaving, he got up and walked into the house.

Looking at the girl on the bed, the uncle enthusiastically took out his kettle, put it next to the bed, and said with a smile: "Girl, it's freezing this day, this kettle is full of hot water, warm!" ”

"But I'm not thirsty now." Jiu'er replied innocently.

Hearing this, the uncle smiled and said, "You girl, this is for you to warm your hands!" ”

As he spoke, the uncle took out another kettle from the cabinet on the side, opened it, and came to the stove.

Open the lid of the pot, scoop the water with a scoop and carefully slam it into the kettle! Closing the kettle again, he picked up another one.

Seeing this, Jiu'er thanked him: "Thank you, grandpa~"

"Bang said thank you to this old man, I also have a girl in my family who is similar to you, but it's a pity that my daughter is good-looking, and no male baby can look at it!" Uncle quipped.

took the initiative to get to Jiu'er's side, and the uncle said again: "You are about the same age as my daughter, and you treat you as your own daughter!" ”

With that, the uncle walked out of the door again, ready to continue to sit outside and guard the village.

Jiu'er shrunk weakly in the quilt, looking at the uncle, feeling warm in her heart.

The first time I met someone who didn't dislike me, I was very moved, but I was a little scared.

Looking at the kettle beside the bed, Jiu'er hesitated for a moment, but finally held it in her arms.

Sure enough, a kettle with hot water was warmer than anything else!

After a while, the fire under the kang burned bigger and bigger, and the indoor temperature was in obvious contrast with the outside.

Jiu'er was so hot that she touched a handful of sweat and slowly got up from the bed.

Sitting on the kang, he looked curiously at the uncle outside.

"Whew~ I feel a little hot." Slowly got up and strode towards the uncle outside the door.

Coming to the door, Jiu'er asked, "Grandpa, why don't you come into the house and sit?" It's windy and cold outside. ”

The uncle shook his head with a smile, exhaled hot air, and explained: "I have to guard the head of the village, if a beast comes, I have to notify the village to do it!" Otherwise, our village will lose a lot of food. ”

"Beasts? Grandpa, are you talking about the kind of beast that can howl and bite big tigers and lions? Jiu'er asked curiously.

The uncle shook his head with a smile: "Our tiger here doesn't howl, it's a puppy that howls!" ”
