34. Snow stops

Boiling hot water is poured into the cup, and the curly tea leaves tumble with the momentum, and after a moment the green body is stretched.

In less than a moment, the unique aroma of tea overflowed the teacup, filling the room with a clear fragrance.

At this time, there were three figures around the hot iron stove, one focused on embroidering purses, one holding ancient books and reading carefully, but the remaining one leaned on a chaise longue and did nothing.

Cheng Xi turned over boredly, yawned and looked out the window.

As far as the eye can see, it is still a white expanse, without any new ideas.

However, unlike the previous days, the raging north wind was stronger, and it blew against the obstruction and howled, like a child crying.

"Bang-"

A dull, familiar sound reached everyone's ears.

Shen Xingqi's hand holding the embroidery needle only paused, and then resumed the action just now.

And the other two are completely unaffected, they should read books, and they should nap and nap.

"Alas, I don't know whose house collapsed this time."

Habit is a terrible thing.

Following the collapse of Wu Shuzi's house, several more collapsed in the village one after another, and at first the big guys couldn't help but go out to check, but now they can completely ignore it.

It's normal to collapse the house.

The conditions in the village are not good, most of them are built with thatched houses, and it is inevitable that the snow on the roofs will be crushed to a certain extent.

I'm going to freeze into a dog at home, who still has the leisure to watch other people's jokes?

Maybe it's your turn next.

"Huh?"

Cheng Xi sat up straight, staring out for a moment.

"The snow has stopped."

By the fire, Shen Xingluo pinched the ancient book's left hand and paused slightly, and looked sideways out.

Sure enough, the snow stopped.

The sky, which was originally indistinct, seemed to have dispersed something, revealing the azure blue that it should have been, with a sense of translucency.

Outside, the wind was still raging, whining through the cracks, but it wasn't as desperate as before.

"This gale is not so useless, at least it blows away the haze."

The reason why the sky is so clear is due to it.

The exclamations of people were faintly heard outside the small courtyard, and they could be heard clearly in the house.

It was obvious that the other villagers had also noticed that the snow had stopped and had begun to cheer, and even Shen Xingqi put down the purse in his hand and looked happy.

"Has the snow really stopped? Can't say that anymore? ”

"Don't be in a hurry to rejoice just yet."

Cheng Xi shook his head slowly, "There is a saying called 'snow is not cold and snow is cold', and we should pay special attention to keeping warm these days." ”

Besides, as for whether it will be able to do it in the future, I have to say another story.

Since the crossing, she has developed a habit of paying attention to temperature changes every day.

This morning, it is already approaching 20 degrees under the order, which is unimaginable for Lin'an Mansion in previous years.

Once the snow stops, it enters the snow melting phase, which takes most of the surrounding heat with it, and the temperature also hits a new low.

That's the real test for people.

Cheng Xi's words made Shen Xingluo couldn't help but cast a glance of appreciation.

"Indeed, you should pay attention to keeping warm after snow."

He knew better than anyone else the power of turning snow, and everyone in his previous life was so happy, thinking that this snow disaster that had lasted for a month had come to an end and was ready to welcome a new life.

However, along with the sun, there is also an extremely low temperature, and countless people in Dayan have been frozen to death, especially those who are running on the migration road.

Although Lin'an Mansion is better, there are also many dead and injured in the surrounding villages.

"Try not to go out these days, and even if you go out, you have to dress warmly."

"Got it, brother."

The sun appeared in the southwestern part of the sky that afternoon, and although it was not particularly bright, it was enough for the villagers to cheer for a while.

"Out of the sun!"

"I haven't seen the sun in days, and I don't even know it."

"It's a snow stop, and if you don't starve to death if you continue like this, you'll freeze to death!"

"Damn, it's really evil this year!"

In fact, the evil sect has only just begun, and what they are experiencing so far is not even an intermission.

When the villagers were about to go out for a walk, as soon as they opened the door, they were frozen to the core, and their hands were already closing the door faster than their brains.

"Bang-"

"Oh my God, why is it so cold?!"

"It's good that I closed it quickly, otherwise my nose would have been frozen!"

"No, no, no, I'll go back and lie down for a while......"

As for the question of the bones lying down?

That's better to melt, at least it's better than going out and freezing to death!

On this day, I don't know how many doors were closed and closed, and most people were immediately stunned the moment they opened the door, and very few were able to walk out on the street.

In the small courtyard of the Shen family, Cheng Xi brought a small porcelain pot from the kitchen.

"Sister-in-law, what's delicious again?"

Shen Xingqi helped her pick up the lid of the iron stove, and was stunned after seeing the ginger slices and red dates floating in the pot.

Hey, it's not food?

It's so fresh, her sister-in-law doesn't even cook food!

Cheng Xi added some more water, "It's too cold outside, it's easy for cold wind to enter the body, drink some red dates and ginger tea to prevent it." ”

This is ancient times, and a cold can easily kill people.

Although she has all kinds of Chinese and Western medicines in her hands, she should avoid it as much as she can, after all, getting sick is also a laborious job.

"Drink more later, to drive away the cold."

Thanks to the most primitive brown sugar in ancient times, Cheng Xi spent a lot of money to buy a few catties when he went to the grocery store, which came in handy.

The iron stove added a few pieces of charcoal and burned vigorously, and the water in the porcelain pot soon boiled.

The ginger slices and red dates added to it exude its own flavor when heated, and the smell of brown sugar can waft far away.

Full of spicy flavor.

To be honest, Cheng Xi doesn't like ginger.

On weekdays, even if it is used for seasoning, it is used and thrown away.

But today......

She smiled, took out three big white bowls, and one of them scooped a full bowl and put it in front of the Shen family brothers and sisters.

"I've drunk it all, and there's not a drop left!"

What do you mean by that?

It's time to see how deep our friendship is!

Shen Xingqi took the lead in taking a sip, and immediately choked with tears, almost being sent away by the pungency of the ginger slices.

"This tastes so rushed~"

"I have to drink it, pinch my nose and drink it in one go."

Cheng Xi said this to himself, and as soon as the words fell, he took the lead in drying a bowl of water, choking and blushing.

Although the three of them have not been frozen since the beginning of winter, the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is too large, which also causes a lot of burden on the body.

Gotta drink!

Cheng Xi turned his gaze to Shen Xingluo in a good time, intending to have some fun.

However...... The other party's face was not red or panting, and he quickly drank it all after sip.

His expression never changed from beginning to end, and his brows did not wrinkle.

“......?”

Something is wrong, something is very wrong.

How exactly did this 18-year-old do it?

He must have been born with a love of ginger!

Cheng Xi decided to cook more next time and open a bowl for him alone.
