Chapter 3 Furnace Fire
"Yamin, did you do it on purpose?" Li Hongjing's silver-bell-like laughter came.
Several other girls who were playing in the middle of the game also stopped playing and looked at Li Jun and them with a smile.
Only then did Li Jun see clearly that there were Yuan Yamin, Li Hongjing, Song Jingya and another little girl named Zhao Wenyan in the class.
At this time, Yuan Yamin's face was not only flushed, but also flushed, and Li Jun looked at Yuan Yamin who was standing in place with ill will at the moment, which made her even more ashamed and ran directly towards the dormitory.
"Yamin, you wait for us!" Several others followed suit.
"Li Hongjing, don't run, help clear the snow!" Li Jun saw that several of them were about to run to the dormitory, and shouted anxiously.
"You can't bear to let our delicate beauties sweep the snow, I'll go and appease your sister Min first, you sweep first." After saying that, he ran away without looking back.
"What's going on, Li Jun, you and your sister really didn't mean to fix your brother, right?" Su Huili looked at the few girls who ran away, pulled the snow off his face, and looked at Li Jun helplessly.
"Brother Li, I promise I didn't mean that, I think it should be a coincidence!" Looking at the embarrassment of the snow flowing down Su Huili's face, Li Jun couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Is this the arrangement of fate? Is God favoring me, or is he trying to play tricks on me? Su Huili muttered to himself.
"Li Jun, Su Huili, my two eldest brothers, what are you doing at the door? Go in and get the tools! Qin Jie had already taken out a broom from the classroom, and saw that the two of them were still chatting at the door, urging anxiously.
Li Jun hurriedly walked into the classroom, feeling that the classroom was very deserted today, basically no different from the ice and snow outside, and couldn't help cursing: "Damn, the coal stove will also strike, if the furnace goes out on this cold day, you will suffer!"
"Maybe, I'll go to clear the snow first, you look at the stove, if it's really extinguished, you have to light it quickly, otherwise such a cold heavenly hand won't be born!" After speaking, he also took a big broom and walked out of the classroom.
Li Jun walked to the front right corner of the classroom to the edge of the coal stove made of bricks, picked up the big iron hammer used to stab the fire and stabbed it into the middle bulging position, it was very hard to reach, there was no crispiness after burning at all, and after a few more stabs, there was still no spark. "It's over, the stove is really out!"
Li Jun shook the iron hammer inserted in the middle a few times, shook the coal covering the furnace mouth, took it down and put it in the coal pile next to it, turned around and walked out of the classroom, and shouted to Qin Jie, who was working hard to clear the snow: "Qin Jie, the coal fire is extinguished, mine will light the fire first, you can sweep the snow first!"
"Damn, the house leak happened to rain overnight, this early and late play will not be extinguished, but it is extinguished when it snows heavily, you hurry up and light it, don't worry about the snow!" Qin Jie also scolded a few words, and then went to clear the snow.
Li Jun returned to the house, first found all the unburned briquettes in the stove and took them out of the hearth, then found some waste paper and put them at the bottom, and then put some corn cobs and dry briquettes on the stove.
After picking up a match from the windowsill and lighting a match, he reached into the hearth and lit the waste paper inside, and when the paper was hot, he put the corn cob on top of the paper, and then picked up a broken fan and gently fanned the wind from the air duct below.
Far from being as easy to ignite as paper, the smoke of the fluff of the skin rises from the fire, and the smoke rises down the walls to the roof, permeates the classroom, and then emerges through the open door.
Li Jun choked on the smoke in the room and coughed, hearing Li Jun's cough, Qin Jie ran to the front door of the classroom and shouted inside: "Li Jun is okay, is he?" Look at your energy to light the fire, as if our class has been lit up? ”
At this moment, Li Jun was squatting next to the stove and fanning hard, and the corn cob finally burst into flames, Li Jun wiped a handful of snow or sweat on his face, straightened up and replied: "It's okay, the corn cob is already on fire, it's the smoke from this thing, now the fire has risen, I'll fill in some more, and when the fire is completely burning, add coal and it's OK!"
"You really have a set of ignitions, let me estimate that I can't light it if I am smoked to death, then the coal fire will be handed over to you, and I will go to clear the snow." After speaking, Qin Jie left the door of the classroom and continued to clear the snow.
This is the voice of a lot of girls outside, probably looking at the smoke billowing in the house, they don't know what happened, and they are all asking Qin Jie.
"The coal fire in the classroom is extinguished, and Li Jun is lighting a fire inside!" Listening to Qin Jie explaining, "The smoke inside is too big, you can help us clear the snow outside first, and watch the snow stop." Of course, you don't have to use your help, but now that you can't get into the classroom, you can also go to the open space in front of the classroom to play for a while, and wait for the smoke in the classroom to clear before entering the classroom. ”
"This kid is really good at making girls happy, there is a lot of smoke in the classroom, and I am smoked in it." Li Jun thought in his heart, he didn't stop in his hand, picked up a few pieces of dry briquettes and put them on the steaming corncob, squatted down and fanned the wind hard in the vent, watching the edge of the briquettes slowly turn red and the flames stopped fanning, and looked up to see that the smoke in the classroom had almost dissipated.
Throwing the broken fan aside, because I had been staying by the fire, the cold feeling of waking up in the morning had disappeared, and I was warm, and I looked out the window, although the sky was still gloomy, but the snow had completely stopped.
Li Jun straightened up and walked towards the outside of the classroom, wanting to see what the boys had swept the snow into during the time he had started the fire.
Walking out of the classroom, I saw that they had basically stopped cleaning, and swept out two paths from the classroom door, one leading to the teacher's office on the left, and the other leading to the dormitory on the right.
At this moment, almost all the tools were thrown at the back door of the classroom, and some of the guys who had just cleared the snow were rolling snowballs on the clean snow that had not been swept up, and the snowballs had already rolled to the size of a watermelon, and a few were chasing and having snowball fights in the square east of the library.
Guo Jibin was shoveling snow with a dustpan as a shovel, and after shoveling the snow together, it gradually increased in height, and now it was almost to his waist. And Dong Yuqian, who was beside the snowman, also held a dustpan and patted the snowman's periphery, so that the snowman's body could be smoother and stronger, and shouted excitedly while patting: "Guo Jibin will make more snow, let's make a snowman as tall as a real person!"
"These unconscionable fellows, Lao Tzu is smoky and burning in the house. And you're having a lot of fun with the girls! Li Jun secretly scolded in his heart.
"Li Jun, your face!" Yuan Yamin, who was standing at the door talking to Qin Jie, looked at Li Jun and pointed at his face after walking out of the classroom.
Qin Jie also turned his head and laughed after seeing Li Jun.
Seeing that Yuan Yamin was bent over with a smile, Li Jun unconsciously touched his face with his hand, and asked inexplicably: "Qin Jie, is there anything so funny on my buddy's face?" Look at the laughter of Yamin, do you have a stomachache! ”
The serious expression on Li Jun's face made Qin Jie laugh even more happily.
Wang Xueyan, who was standing next to Dong Yuqian, heard the laughter here, turned his head, and walked over with a smile when he saw Li Jun's face.
After Fang Ning left, Li Jun's feelings for Wang Xueyan were even weaker, maybe seeing that Li Jun really had no feelings for himself, Wang Xueyan was also happy to play the role of a sister, and Yuan Yamin just told him to study hard, so he has been more calm everywhere in the past two months.
"Little brother, go wash your face, you're almost done!" Wang Xueyan only remembers explaining the problem.
Li Jun raised his hand and saw that he had rubbed a lot of coal black because he had taken out the leftover coal from the stove, and put paper and corn cobs on it, and he touched his face without washing his hands.
When Li Jun washed his face with cold and biting water and returned to the classroom, everyone had already packed up the tools into the classroom, and the people playing outside also entered the classroom, Dong Yuqian's goal of a tall snowman had not been completed, and it was not too much of a difference based on her height, a bare round snowball was placed on the top of the snowman, which should have just been rolled by Zhang Wenyong, and then the nose, eyes and mouth had not placed the corresponding things, and it looked incongruous where to put a round thing.
Li Jun walked into the classroom and took a look at the red flames of the coal stove he had lit himself, and the classroom didn't know if it was because there were more people and more heat, or because of the heat brought by the stove fire, it was far less cold than when he just entered the house in the morning, but it made people feel a warm heat!
"Li Jun has worked hard, thank you Li Jun for bringing warmth to everyone!" Li Jun, who was thinking about the question in his heart, was startled by the sudden shout, and then looked at Qin Jie who was sitting in the middle with a smile on his face, and the warmth in his heart was even better.
Just thinking about why everyone returned to the classroom in such a hurry, it turned out that Qin Jie called everyone back, and everyone saw the process of making a fire in the classroom alone in the morning in the morning.
Looking at the faces of everyone in the classroom who were silent or laughing but all childish, Li Jun felt that not only his heart, but all of them were full of warmth, and this warmth was not only what he could bring to himself from the fire he lit, because this warmth is called "love!" ”
