After putting everything away, I pushed the two children directly to the living room. As soon as I walked out of the house, I felt the cold air outside blowing towards me.

Quickly take out the beauty cream made by Grandpa Li and apply it evenly on the two children's faces. Don't let their fair and tender skin be wrinkled by the wind.

I leaned forward to smell it, and it smelled quite nice. It seems that Mr. Li is not only good at medicine, but also good in all aspects related to medicine.

I put the two children in the living room first, went to the meat pickling room, and checked the status of the meat I had pickled.

I feel like the weather is too cold, and I don’t know if the flavor has been marinated in?

After thinking about it, I decided to just forget about it and smoke them tomorrow.

By keeping it smoked, I think the flavor should be easily absorbed and the moisture inside will dry up, so what's left is good. There's no need to worry about the marinated meat not tasting good.

I locked the door and went to the living room, watching the two children staring outside with shining eyes.

It was still snowing lightly at this time, so I didn't dare push them out. If they wanted to go outside, they had to wait until the weather was good.

It would be best to wait until next summer, when they will be wearing thin clothes and will be able to learn to walk. By then they will no longer be able to be kept at home.

I went to the kitchen to steam the rice first, but thinking that I had been eating rice these days, I felt a little bit unpalatable, so I just kneaded the dough.

There are quite a lot of noodles in the space, which are for eating when I don’t want to cook at noon, but I can’t bear to take them out.

Use warm water to knead the flour into dough, cover it with a lid, and put it in the kitchen, waiting for Zhou Huaian to come back and let him make it.

By the way, I took out the set of clothes I had prepared for Sun Rui and placed it on a stool beside him, waiting to take it back when he returned home after dinner.

With nothing to do, I simply moved a stool and sat next to the stroller to play with the child.

I had been sitting in the living room for less than five minutes when I heard the sound of the courtyard door opening.

"You're back! How many days of vacation do you have left?"

"It will take another two or three days. The colder it gets in the winter, the more coal is consumed. During this time, those working in the mines are working overtime.

Although our jobs are relatively easier for those of us who don’t have to go down into the mines, we also have to do a lot more.”

Zhou Huaian came forward and took a look at his two sons, not forgetting to reply.

As soon as I came back, I saw my chubby son and I felt very good. I felt that I was quite capable as I had been busy outside all day while my wife and children were able to stay in the house away from the wind and rain.

"By the way, wife, I heard from the captain's eldest son today that there seems to be more educated youth coming here."

Su Qingxue was particularly surprised. It was almost New Year, so why were educated youth being sent down here at this time?

"Is this a mistake? The New Year is coming soon. Even the new educated youth will just hide in their houses for the winter. Why are they coming here at this time? It would be better to let them wait until the weather is warmer and they can do spring ploughing before coming down."

By postponing it for a period of time, the educated youth can also stay at home for a longer period of time. After all, most of them are reluctant to let their children go to the countryside, and they don’t know when they can come back.

It's a little easier here as we don't have to brave the thick snow to pick them up. The road is really difficult to walk on and people may be buried in some places.

It can be said that if another batch of educated youth came at this time, it would be a very troublesome thing in every aspect.

I never thought that I would have to send someone off during the New Year in such a cold day.

"Who knows? Anyway, I heard from the team leader's eldest son. He should have heard it from the team leader at home. But I haven't seen the team leader go to the commune for meetings in the past few days, so I don't know where the news came from.

I hope it's fake. It would be a sin to come here at this time."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. Whether you come or not has nothing to do with us. But we are also educated youth. If we can help, we can just raise our hands. If we can't help, then we can just live our own lives."

In a sense, Sun Rui is still relatively indifferent. He will be a little enthusiastic only when people are familiar with each other. In front of others, he is really cold.

Especially the group of educated youth who arrived a few months ago, after more than half a year of hard work, they really suffered the most hardships they had ever experienced in their lives.

So they were eager to find a long-term meal ticket. Sun Rui and another male educated youth in the class were among the targets.

Fortunately, Sun Rui and Zhou Huaian always walk together, so there is no chance for others.

Ye Yunzhou's life at the educated youth camp was filled with a lot of trouble.

Even if someone knocked on the door in the middle of the night, he didn't dare to open it, for fear of being framed.

He even considered building his own house and moving in.

Anyway, those educated youth who have jobs are quite popular.

Even the unmarried female educated youth like Wang Xiaomei were very popular, and there was a constant stream of matchmakers in the village.

But the more matchmakers came, the less likely they were to agree easily.

At first, when I saw that the girls next to me were all married, I had this thought in my mind. After all, when I saw others were in pairs, I definitely didn’t want to be in a couple.

However, because of the overly active matchmakers and the various young people they could meet on the street anytime and anywhere, they simply retreated.

They felt that these people were people who were plotting against them with ill intentions.

Fortunately, today's young girls still know how to protect themselves. They are never alone. They go somewhere with people around them, never giving themselves the chance of danger and never letting others get close to them.

Su Qingxue looked at Sun Rui with an indifferent look and felt that she didn't know when he would meet his other half.

Don’t let the fake son run away and do nothing by then, and he hasn’t been found yet!

He hoped that among the educated youth coming this time there would be one who was compatible with him, so that Grandpa Sun wouldn't have to worry about his grandson not being able to find a wife.

"Got it. I just kneaded the dough. Do you guys plan on eating noodles or sheets?

I will listen to you anyway, and I will eat whatever you cook."

"Okay, I'll do it then."

Zhou Huaian pinched your son's cheek, feeling the tenderness in his palm, but he wanted to give him a face-to-face blow.

Then she thought about how her whole body was cold and only her fingers were slightly warm, so she suppressed the urge to have some quiet time with her son.

It doesn’t matter if you wait for a while, you can do it yourself when you go to bed at night.

"Sun Rui, the clothes on that stool are the ones I made for you. Go and take a look to see if they fit you. If they don't, I'll alter them for you. There's still time to get them altered so you can have something to wear during the New Year."
