Chapter 257: I Thought You Were Newlywed
The lights are still on outside, and the light is faintly filtering in through the cracks in the door below, which makes people warm and reassuring to watch.
Lu Xiangning's arm was close to Li Zao's back, and after a while, he turned sideways and hugged him.
"Don't mess around." In the dark night, dawn's warning sounded.
Lu Xiangning smiled, "Haven't fallen asleep yet?" ”
"You're just waiting for me to fall asleep, aren't you?"
Lu Xiangning smiled deeper, but the hand he stretched out was never easy to let go, and he finally hugged it, "I'm afraid that you will be cold, and I will warm you up." ”
Li didn't speak, it was really cold, and her feet were still icy.
The feet are not hot, and it is difficult to sleep.
"I'm hot, help you warm your feet."
As he spoke, he pressed her feet between his thighs.
On this wet and cold winter night, Li Zao couldn't refuse this stove-like warmth.
When I was drowsy, I listened to the man behind me ask unrelentingly, "We're reconciled, right?!" ”
She said perfunctorily, "Look at your performance." ”
The man hugged her tighter.
……
The next morning, Li was awakened by freezing.
Instinctively, she moved to the side, trying to stick to the stove.
However, empty.
Lu Xiangning had already gotten up.
Li Zao shrunk into the bed, opened his eyes, and white light came in from behind the curtains, and it was already dawn outside.
It was so cold, so cold that she didn't even have the courage to get up.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and she hid under the covers, when she heard footsteps coming in.
Then, a warm water bag was stuffed into the bed, right at her feet.
"Awake?" Lu Xiangning lifted a little quilt and asked her, "Is it cold?" ”
Li Zao hugged the warm water bag like he had hugged a savior, "It's cold, it's even colder here than Sioux City." ”
The winter in Sioux City is also wet and cold, but four or five degrees have reached its peak, while in the mountain city it is minus four or five degrees.
"Today is colder than yesterday, and the ice ridges on the beams are seventy or eighty centimeters long."
"Is the road open?"
"So fast."
"I see why you're not in a hurry at all?"
"What's the hurry?"
"Are you really not afraid that Bai Xuting will kick you out of the company?"
Lu Xiangning showed a disdainful smile, "Then I thank her." ”
"......" Li Zao was dumbfounded.
The quilt is not warm anymore, and it is awake anyway, so it is better to get up and move.
The little sister intimately took out her cotton pajamas and gave them to Li Zao, at first Li Zao felt too bloated and not good-looking, but as soon as she put them on, she couldn't love them.
The hands are no longer stiff, the legs are not shaking, they are wide and loose, soft and warm.
You can also put a hot water bag in your big pocket, which is amazing.
Although the sleeves and trouser legs are shortened, it does not affect the warmth at all.
Good looks are not worth mentioning at all in the face of freezing to death.
There was a stove outside, and a room full of mothers and families was harmonious.
The driver of the bus that sent him to the hospital last night was also there, and he stopped bleeding and bandaged it at the county hospital, and it was no big deal, so he was sent back again.
Everyone joked with him, "Big brother, you are still the most at a loss, your head is broken, and the car is gone." ”
The driver's eldest brother had just escaped death, and waved his hand with a smile, "The car belongs to the company, the insurance is complete, and it is better to be alive than anything else." ”
Everyone laughed, sighed and nodded.
After that, the injured people were recuperating at home, and the men who were not injured picked up their tools and went outside to clear the snow, and Lu Xiangning followed.
Li Zao helped to work in the kitchen, which was still an old-fashioned earthen stove, and she went to light the fire when it was cold.
"Early morning, do you have heating there in winter?"
"Hmm."
"We don't have heating here, isn't it cold?"
"It's colder outside in Jiangcheng, but it's really colder here."
"Then you will be responsible for lighting the fire, and we will wash and cut it."
"Okay."
Because of the large number of people, first of all, three meals a day must be guaranteed, and the kitchen must be the hottest place.
The people here are very simple, they grew up in the mountains, the circle is simple, the interpersonal relationship is also simple, their eyes always show a bright look, enthusiasm and sincerity.
"Have you reported safety to your family? Are everyone in the family in a hurry? ”
Li Zao smiled bitterly, "I've reported peace." ”
She only sent a message to Su Kui, but didn't tell her mother and Aunt Shen, so as to save them from worrying.
But Lu Xiangning, no one knew that he had come to the mountain city, and the whole night passed, and only He Bing called her mobile phone because he couldn't contact him.
And his so-called family members are afraid that they can't wait for him to die.
Thinking like this, Li Zao suddenly felt sorry for him again.
The world is probably fair, giving him a strong family background, outstanding appearance, and excellent ability, but depriving him of his maternal love.
If a person does not have a mother's love, he will feel lacking love for the rest of his life.
How can a person who lacks love know how to fall in love and how to love others?
"I heard his father say you've been married for five years?"
Auntie's voice interrupted Li Zao's thoughts, and Li Zao nodded embarrassedly.
"Xiao Lu started a fire in the kitchen for a long time, and he didn't get up for a long time, and there was smoke in the kitchen, I thought there was a fire."
Li Zao was even more embarrassed, "He won't make a fire." ”
"I hurried in, saw that he was making a fire, and asked him, what are you doing with a fire, and he said, make a fire and boil water to fill you with a hot water bottle."
A warm current flowed into Li Zao's heart in an instant.
"I thought you were newlywed, and he was so nice to you."
"Huh."
The aunt chatted with her while chopping chicken nuggets, "The young man is so handsome, tall, handsome, and has a good heart, you have to hurry up and give him a baby." ”
Li Zao just smiled, although the point of view was slightly different, she understood what her aunt meant.
Just imagine, if she and Lu Xiangning had a child, she would not be able to want a divorce so freely, just leave.
She sat on the small stool, unconsciously reached out and touched her lower abdomen, if it weren't for Lu Xiangning's leakage, she wouldn't know that she had ever been pregnant, alas, or fate had not arrived.
"If you two have a child, you must be beautiful, do you like a son or a daughter?"
Probably smoked by the firelight, Li Zao's cheeks were slightly pink, "I like both, it doesn't matter if it's male or female, it's good to be healthy." ”
"What about Xiao Lu?"
Li Zao thought for a moment and shook his head, "I don't know, we haven't talked about this topic." ”
"Then you should have a few more, and it is best to have both children."
Both children are complete, Li Zao recited it silently in his heart, and it is a very satisfying thing to think about.
At this time, there were two "knocks", and someone knocked on the window outside.
Li Zao was curious, stretched his neck, and cocked his head to look out.
I saw Lu Xiangning holding a small snowman in his hand, and he was showing her a proud face.
His fingers were frozen like carrots, and he played in the snow.
This is silly.
"Out to play?"
Li Zao shook his head vigorously, "Cold." ”
"It's not cold when you move, there's a lake behind you, they're ice fishing, do you want to go and see it?"
Li Zao hesitated.
The aunt smiled and helped persuade, "Let's go and see, the lake behind is called 'Fairy Lake', there is a waterfall down, and it is beautiful to freeze in winter, go and see." ”
Li Zao: "That's okay, I'll give my aunt face." ”
