The result of letting her sister-in-law and her best friend play crazy was that Cheng Xi was forced to listen to gossip all night.

The daughter of the old craftsman's family married into the next village, and Uncle Wang put a fire kang for five or six families in the village, and Shen Daqing's vein next door was supported again......

Cheng Xi was so sleepy that she nodded her head to the ground, and the experience she had accumulated in her previous life after staying up late for more than ten years was stunned.

"Wait, what do you mean that the other vein is branching up again?"

There are about 500 people in Shenjia Village, and the surname Shen accounts for most of them, except for the sixth uncle, who is relatively strong, and the rest of the family is only a few dozen people.

Because of this, the position of the patriarch of the Shen clan will fall to them.

"There are two people in Shenjia Village, and now my brother is ...... The other nature carries the expectations of the people in the village. ”

"Is that Shen Ziqing?"

"It's him."

The little girl was not convinced, "Aunt Zhang now sees people and says that her son can be a big official, and she will still be Mrs. Decree or something, and she will almost her tail to the sky." ”

Cheng Xi glanced at her, lost like a defeated dog, drooping his ears and being lifeless and a little unconvinced.

I'm afraid that the words that can reach her ears have already been processed, and it is estimated that the original words are even more difficult to hear.

But well......

"Don't worry, she won't dare to say anything in front of you in the future."

That knife was not cut for nothing.

Shen Xingqi looked at her sister-in-law suspiciously, and when she saw that she looked determined, she looked at her brother again.

Shen Xingluo was not angry because he heard Aunt Zhang's words, but the corners of his mouth lifted lightly and showed a light smile.

She: "? ”

At night, the small mountain village is lonely, there is no entertainment in ancient times, and every family will choose to rest after eating when it gets dark.

The entire Shenjia Village was silent.

And the heavy snow, which had been stopped for a day, quietly landed again this night, with a devastating momentum.

***

The alarm clock in the space rang at 7 a.m. sharp, waking up the sleeping owner outside.

This is Cheng Xi's latest discovered feature.

Her guess was right, the few medicinal herbs smuggled in yesterday caused the dense fog in the space to disperse another fifty meters, and even a small piece of black land appeared.

This also strengthened Cheng Xi's desire to explore - who knows what will appear next time the fog clears?

While the other members of the family were washing, she disappeared into the small courtyard of the farmhouse.

In the space, there seemed to be something in the black earth outside the villa that attracted her.

"So what's planted here?"

In view of the fact that the black soil only appeared when medicinal materials were brought in, Cheng Xi decided to plant all the medicinal materials smuggled in here, especially the two small ginseng plants.

As soon as she said it, she took tools and carefully buried Kudzu and ginseng in the selected positions, and finally sprayed some water with a kettle.

Well...... It's a lot better that way.

Although the small leaves of ginseng are still yellow, they at least look a little energetic with water droplets.

A sense of accomplishment.

As soon as Cheng Xi got up, he heard an exclamation from outside the space.

"What's wrong?"

"It's snowing, it's snowing!"

Shen Xingqi was standing at the door, and a lot of snow outside had sunk in because of the sudden opening of the door, and the outside of the house was already white.

The place that was shoveled out yesterday is covered with snow again, and the snow is even thicker than yesterday.

Cheng Xi took a few steps forward and looked out, his eyes were snow-white without variegation, and his eyes were faintly tingling.

"It's just one night, and it's raining so much?"

The snow outside had reached the window, at least half a meter high, and the snowflakes were still flying outside, and there was no intention of stopping.

Shen Xingluo walked out from the other side, his expression dark.

"Eat first."

Cheng Xi glanced at him, and then moved his gaze to the iron stove in the living room.

Last night I filled it with charcoal before going to bed, was it a coincidence or a predetermined one?

The atmosphere of today's breakfast was a little depressing, and even Shen Xingqi realized the unusual nature of this heavy snowfall, and couldn't help but look out while eating.

"Brother, with such a heavy snowfall, the road must be difficult to walk, right?"

"You're going to Fucheng?"

"It's not me, yesterday Xiaoyue said that she planned to go to the embroidery village today to buy some cloth and embroidery thread."

"It's still raining outside, and if it's not something necessary, no one should go out."

As everyone knows, the heavy snow has just begun now, and if the importance of stockpiling grain has not been discovered at this time, then it will only become more and more difficult in the future.

As Shen Xingluo expected, the other people in the village also discovered the situation outside one after another after getting up.

The family who hadn't gone to Fucheng to buy food in the past two days originally planned to go out today, but they quickly dispelled their thoughts when they saw the heavy snowfall.

"Forget it, this snow will soon get soaked when it falls on you."

"That's right, the padded jacket won't be used at that time."

"There is snow on the road, and it is definitely not easy to walk if it is deep and shallow, so let's talk about it."

"Wait until the snow stops!"

......

The Shen family's small courtyard.

After eating, the three of them began to shovel snow.

When Cheng Xi went out, he had three more things in his hand and stuffed one into each person's hand.

"These are glasses, I bought them at the grocery store in Fucheng a few days ago, to protect my eyes."

She first picked up a pair of goggles and put them on the bridge of her nose, and most of her small face was instantly covered.

It's weird, but it's a little good-looking, and it's a novelty in short.

The Shen family brothers and sisters looked at her, one thoughtful and the other surprised.

"What are you looking at me for? Put it on! ”

Shen Xingluo was silent for a moment, and took the lead in putting on the goggles, because of the shielding of the lenses, the eyes that originally wanted to cry were much better.

Originally......

"This is specifically for snowy days?"

He knew the role of goggles on a second thought.

Snow seems to be non-aggressive but has a great impact on people, and in previous lives, many people had difficulty seeing after a snow disaster, and even doctors did not know how to treat it.

Cheng Xi didn't know that he had thought a lot at this time, nodded and explained, "Heavy snow can easily cause snow blindness, that is, it will be uncomfortable for the eyes to look at the snow for a long time." ”

She put it on Shen Xingqi, and the little girl's face instantly left a small nose and mouth.

"With this layer of lenses, it doesn't matter if you look at the snow again."

"Really! My eyes were still watering up just now, but they're much better now. ”

Because of it, the three of them also have the energy to do their work - in fact, wearing goggles is a bit of a novelty, almost treating work as fun.

The snow in the yard was so thick that it took nearly two hours to clean up the yard this time, and the snowdrifts under the east wall were also cleared.

Many people outside are doing the same work as them, and families are shoveling snow.

Cheng Xi rested for a moment and took out a machete from the West House.

"I'll go to the back mountain and chop some firewood and come back."

The charcoal at home was enough to survive the winter, and it cost a lot of silver taels at that time, but she always had a sense of urgency when she saw the snow falling heavier and heavier.

Now that the snow disaster has just begun, who knows what will happen next?

It's always right to have extra stuff on hand.
