To tell the truth, the winter of the Great Chu Dynasty this year is indeed earlier than in previous years, and the time is only at the end of November and before December, the capital has ushered in the first snow of the 26th year of auspiciousness.

The snow began to fall during the night, and by the time the capital reawakened after a night of repairs, it had been covered in a silvery coat.

"Ruixue Trillion Year!"

Taishi Lu Xiangrui stood alone in his yard and watched the snowflakes falling from the sky, and occasionally, he would reach out and pick up one or two snowflakes and put them in the palm of his hand to watch carefully, until the snowflakes finally melted in his hands.

In fact, there are many families who play out this scene in the capital, and those who can become officials have read books for a few years, so they have a preference for snow scenes, just like most literati.

Just like today's first snow, the literati and scholars in this capital can write at least 100 poems with this as the theme.

But unlike these rich and noble families, the common people or the poorer ones don't like snow, especially the head of the family.

They are not the slightest interested in snow scenes, because snow means that really cold days are coming, in contrast, they are more concerned about whether they can add another set of clothes to their wives and children in the last days, or can earn a few more dollars of silver to add an extra meat dish to the table of Chinese New Year's Eve dinner during the New Year.

The newly started academy in the capital and the construction site of the restaurant are still in full swing, the academy is repaired by the imperial court, and the one who built the restaurant is said to be also hand-eyed.

Therefore, they are very sympathetic to the migrant workers who work, and the wages are 40% higher than in the past, and there will be a piece of buckle meat in the lunch every day.

But although there is meat, almost none of these men who do rough work move their mouths, they all take out a piece of oiled paper and wrap it, ready to bring it to the children at home after work.

That's why there is an old saying: If parents in the world can be very good, they are willing to leave half a point for themselves!

Pity the hearts of parents all over the world!

......

Unlike the capital, when the capital began to snow, it had been snowing in Gusu City in the south of the Yangtze River for three days in a row, and as a result, Gusu City had become a silver and white world.

"Read, read, read, read a fart! Lao Tzu, a Jianghu man who practices swords and swords, what's the use of watching these things?"

The owner of this voice is naturally Jiang Ergou, who has not been seen for many days, since he and Wang Xuanlang, the old man, lived in Gusu City, he has been forced to read books for two hours every day.

It's not that he hasn't resisted, but every time he resists, the old man will teach him a lesson that life is worse than death under the pretext of accompanying him to practice martial arts, and after many times, he doesn't dare to resist openly.

The reason why he dared to complain like this today was because Chen Mu took his master and Chen Xici's little girl to enjoy the snow, leaving him alone in the house.

When you get here, don't think that Ergou can be lazy while they are away, the old man made a statement to him before leaving, if when they come back, he can't recite the articles designated by Chen Mu, so Wang Xuanlang will accompany him to practice the sword for an hour.

"A few people who are not righteous, forget it if you don't bring me with you to enjoy the snow, run out without cooking, let me drink the northwest wind!"

After looking at the second dog in the morning, he was finally able to carry most of it, and after feeling hungry, he wanted to go to the kitchen to find something to eat, but in fact, this kitchen was cleaner than his second dog's face.

Returned to the study and stayed for nearly an hour, Ergou was really hungry and couldn't stand it anymore before he chose to cook by himself, in fact, Ergou's cooking skills are still good.

In the twenty years that he lived with the old man in the mountain stream, he had been cooking for as long as he could remember, and although the taste was not very good, he would not eat the dead.

Fortunately, this old man is not picky and has deep internal strength, and he usually eats whatever Ergou does, which gives Jiang Ergou great confidence.

I was busy for a long time, from mixing noodles to kneading noodles, and then making dough into noodles and putting them in the pot to cook, but in the end, the fragrant egg noodles were cheaper than others.

Ergou had just picked up the bowl and was about to start drying, and the few people who went out to enjoy the snow ran back, and couldn't help but say that Wang Xuanlang came to Su Ruyu's side to sort out the burden for him, and then snatched his noodles by the way.

"Old thing, I said what are you doing! I don't know what's in the pot?

As he spoke, Ergou was about to get up and get a bowl of noodles again, but when he stepped into the house, he happened to see Chen Mu and Chen Xici coming out with a bowl of rice.

"Damn, sloppy. ”

When Ergou arrived next to the stove, there were no noodles left, and only a bowl of soup remained.

Ergou looked at the noodle soup and became more and more angry, and then he resolutely made up his mind - to knead a dough again.

By the time Ergou finally made everything and put the noodles in his mouth, the other three were already lying in the yard to rest.

Seeing the pleasant appearance of the three of them, Ergou was very angry, but he didn't dare to stand in front of them, because he still didn't know if the old man Chen was looking at this bowl of noodles and didn't take his homework, so he had to quickly shrink back into the room and pretend to read.

It snowed for three days in a row, and the snow in Gusu City not only did not stop, but had a tendency to intensify, and when Ergou woke up the next day, the snow on the ground was already up to his ankles.

"Phew. ”

Suddenly, a snowball fell on the unsuspecting Ergou.

"Brother Ergou, come and have a snowball fight with me!"

Ergou turned around and looked, but it was the eccentric Chen Xici who was making trouble, and her little hands were already frozen red.

At this moment, she was looking at Jiang Ergou with a wicked smile.

"Have a snowball fight with me, Xici, aren't you afraid of being beaten and cried by me?"

Ergou replied to the little girl's words and bent down to rub snowballs on the ground.

"Hmph, I won't! It's the second dog brother who will cry for a while. ”

"Well, since that... If you don't believe me, then I'll show you how good I am. ”

After finishing speaking, Ergou rushed out all of a sudden, trying to catch Chen Xici, but she ran away from it.

Seeing Chen Xici running towards the inner courtyard, Ergou didn't mean to let her go, so he chased after her.

"Run! I'll see where you're going!"

But when Ergou entered the inner courtyard, he was dumbfounded, and Chen Xici didn't know when dozens of snowballs had piled up here.

"Brother Ergou, watch the snowball!"

didn't wait for Jiang Ergou to shout something unfair or something like that, the little girl shot directly.

Since the ammunition was sufficient, Chen Xici didn't care about the problem of the quasi-leader, anyway, he picked it up and threw it out, but even so, it still made Jiang Ergou who was standing below scramble.

In fact, during the period when Ergou was dodging, he also thought of many ways to counterattack, but each time he failed because the counterattack was too hasty and the firepower was too small.

After he couldn't think of any way to do it later, Ergou was ready to resist hard, he didn't believe that the little girl's snowball was endless, and there would always be a time when she finished throwing it.

"Bang... Bang... Bang!"

Every time the sound sounded, it meant that Jiang Ergou had suffered another heavy blow, and as time went by little by little, the snowball prepared by Chen Xici was also decreasing, and finally reached the point of exhaustion.

"Hahaha, I've finally waited for this opportunity! Chen Xici, I want to see where you are going this time!"

"Stop!"

He was about to rush over to teach her a lesson, but the little girl stopped him.

"Brother Ergou, how about we have a snowball fight here today, if you don't have a good time, you can come back tomorrow. ”

"What?"

Ergou's face was full of disbelief.

"Then I was beaten for nothing just now?"

"Hmm... (girl-style prolonged pseudonym), Brother Ergou, can't you be humble to girls?"

The second dog is so big, and he has been spoiled by girls there, and he was defeated in less than a second.

Anyway, I can see it, you just want to bully me today. ”

"Those two dogs don't give me bullying, it's best to bully you for a lifetime. ”

"I'll go, little girl Chen Xici, you're going too far!

Chen Xici's face unconsciously flashed a trace of loneliness, but he soon smiled happily again.

"Okay, okay, you can build a snowman, I'm going to build a big snowman!"

This Chen Xici seemed to have everything ready, and he didn't know that he took out a shovel from there and handed it to Jiang Ergou.

"Brother Ergou, rough work is not suitable for girls, so I'll work hard for you. ”

"No problem!"

Jiang Ergou took the shovel and started to move, fortunately, this Nizi pinched dozens or hundreds of snowballs here, so that it was already full of snow, saving Ergou a lot of effort.

But even so, he was still too tired, and Ergou only began to pant after only ten minutes of continuous shoveling, and his hands were also frozen red.

Just when Ergou was about to take a breath, he looked up and happened to see Chen Xici squatting on the side looking at him.

"I said, aren't you going to build a snowman? Why don't you come and watch?"

"It's enough for me to look at Brother Ergou!"

Chen Xici said as a matter of course.

"No, I mean if you come and help me, we'll be done sooner!"

"It's okay, Brother Ergou can be a little later. ”

She still looked at Jiang Ergou without blinking, and she had no intention of helping him.

"I mean, I'...... Well, you win. ”

After that, Ergou continued to bury his head in the work, and Chen Xici also smiled with satisfaction and continued to stare at him.

After nearly two hours of hard work, Chen Xici's expected snowman was finally completed with the unremitting efforts of Ergou.

The shape of this snowman can't be said to be ugly, but it's definitely not beautiful, but even so, Chen Xici is still very happy.

She picked up a branch and wrote the word Jiang Ergou on the snowman.

But in fact, there is a little snowman about three inches in her hand behind her, which is a girl, and there are three words Chen Xici on it.

While Jiang Ergou wasn't paying attention, she put the little snowman next to the big snowman, and then laughed involuntarily!
