Fan Zhu nodded and agreed that it was indeed time to go.

"Is your grandfather there too?"

Although Fan Zhu was asking his grandson, his words revealed affirmation.

What else could Lin Jiancheng say? Was it that his grandfather and second grandfather were now exchanging their experiences with cigarettes?

"Ah Ci, help grandma get the hat from the kang. Grandma will go with you."

"good."

Lin Jiancheng touched his nose and silently picked up the balls of yarn and knitting sticks on the table.

Lin Anguo took out gloves from his hat, put them on, and went out to the backyard to pull the bull cart.

Lin Yian supported Fan Zhu and walked towards the next yard.

When entering the house, Lin Yian thought for a moment and whispered, "Grandma, please go in first. I forgot to give something to my dad, I'll go back and get it."

Fan Zhu patted her granddaughter's hand and said, "Go ahead."

Lin Yian trotted back to the room, leaned against the door, picked out a pair of thick black leather gloves from the space, and cut off all the labels on them with scissors.

Lin Yian opened the door and ran towards the courtyard entrance.

"Dad, wait for me."

Because the soles of the shoes were covered with snowflakes, two shallow shoe prints were left on the floor of the room, which soon disappeared without a trace under the influence of the residual heat in the house.

Only the swinging bolt announced that someone had just been there.

When Lin Anguo heard his daughter's voice, he stopped waving the reins in the air.

When Lin Yian saw Lin Anguo and Ji Zebai already sitting on the ox cart, he breathed a sigh of relief, luckily he caught up.

"Dad, put on these gloves."

Without waiting for Lin Anguo's answer, Lin Yian took off the woolen gloves on Lin Anguo's hands, which were already pilling. When his fingers rubbed across his father's palms, he felt many calluses left by years of driving the cart.

Lin Yian quickly put on the new gloves for Lin Anguo and put the woolen gloves in his pocket: "Dad, please drive slowly on the road. I'll go in first."

"Hey. The road is slippery. Walk slowly."

"drive."

The reins drew a perfect semicircle in the air.

Unlike usual, when you feel the handle of the reins rubbing against your palm, this time it is blocked by a layer of soft leather.

The ox cart began to move forward. No one saw the sparkle that flashed across Lin Anguo's eyes, and no one needed to know.

Ji Zebai looked through the small window on the snow shelter and saw the little girl who said she wanted to go in was still staring at the ox cart at the gate of the yard.

Even though he knew in his heart that the little girl was not looking at him, Ji Zebai still had a momentary illusion.

I am the whole world in those eyes.

In that moment, just three seconds, Ji Zebai had already woken up.

But when will the ripples that have already arisen be resolved?

When Lin Yian saw that the ox cart was completely out of sight, he turned and walked towards the house.

"Grandpa, grandma, aunt."

When Lin Jianmao saw his little cousin coming in, he immediately waved and greeted her: "Porcelain doll, here's me."

Porcelain doll, what is this called?

etc……

Lin Yian dug out some fragments of memory from the depths of his memory.

When she was a child, there was a ceramic doll at home that her father bought specially for her.

Because she loves it so much, she is reluctant to let go of it when she goes to sleep and does not allow others to touch it.

So this guy teased her all day long, saying that her nickname was Aci and maybe she was also a porcelain doll.

"Hello, Brother Cat."

Lin Yian was not willing to be outdone, as he could only utter single words when he first learned to speak as a child.

My older brothers and younger brothers are all of the Jian generation, so they are called by the last character of their names.

In the eyes of Lin Yi'an, a child of Lin Jianmao, Lin Jianmao was honored to be of the same family as the kitten.

Lin Jianmao was not angry either. He just remembered this incident last night.

However, the kids who ran behind him when he was young also learned to yell like that, and he taught them a lesson one by one.

The elderly people on the kang also enjoyed watching the brother and sister bickering.

"Ah Ci, come, come to grandma. This is your second grandfather."

The old man opposite looks much younger than my grandfather, but you can tell from their faces that they are brothers.

"Hello, Second Grandpa."

Lin Dehai agreed with a smile: "Hey! Ah Ci, this is your second uncle, and your second mother."

"Hello, Second Uncle, Hello, Second Mom."

Lin Yian was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this second uncle looked younger than his father.

When he saw his second mother standing nearby, Lin Yian had a concrete impression of the saying "A man of learning is naturally elegant".

Although this second mother's appearance is not outstanding, her temperament makes her look gentle and outstanding.

But why would such a person appear in Linjia Village?

Lin Anqing smiled and said, "Aci and Jiancheng are both back this year, so we can have a reunion year."

Huo Fang looked at Lin Yian with a very gentle gaze.

She and Wang Chunni gave birth to their children at about the same time. She gave birth to Jianbin and Wang Chunni gave birth to Aci.

Huo Fang couldn't help but feel soft inside when she looked at little Aci, who was as cute as a glutinous rice ball, and she was always worried about him.

At first, Wang Chunni was pretty nice to Aci, but after Wang Chunni's mother came, this woman became less and less interested in Aci.

If her aunt hadn't been watching, Huo Fang could imagine how Wang Chunni would treat little A'ci.

Wang Chunni felt that she was acting and became more and more sarcastic and mean. Before leaving, the woman even thought about sending a letter of complaint to her unit.

Instead of pursuing happiness that is down to earth, you have to reach for castles in the air.

Huo Fang has seen many people like this, it's just a pity for the child.

Later, when the little dumpling grew up, he was also taken away.

Huo Fang looked at the girl sitting in front of her. She no longer looked like the glutinous rice dumpling she was when she was a child, but her eyes were still bright and shining.

Even with a mother like that, the child still raised himself well.

At this time, Lin Jiancheng walked in from outside.

Wang Juan looked at her son covered in snow and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"You fell into a snow pit, kid. How did you get so much snow on your body?"

Lin Jiancheng patted the snowflakes off his body and said, "No, I went to the slope to take a look. Ah Ci, do you want to go skiing?"

Lin Jianmao jumped up first: "Brother, I'll go too."

After the three siblings left, Wang Juan added a piece of coal to the stove: "This must have been instigated by Jianzhen. The boy has been thinking about the snow on the slope for a long time, and he can't wait to go there and touch it every day."

Huo Fang took over the conversation: "Sister-in-law, I think it was most likely our Jianbin who proposed it. The child has been looking forward to his brother's return."

Wang Juan put down the coal tongs and stood up to go to the kitchen: "Wait, these guys won't be back until lunch time today. Fang, stay for lunch, we'll make noodles for you."

Huo Fang rolled up her sleeves and followed: "Okay, I've been thinking about the noodles rolled by my sister-in-law for a long time. I'll help you."
