This morning, Gu Zhao saw such heavy snow and did not ride a bicycle. Instead, he took An An to the factory by bus.
The road today is very difficult to walk on. The snow in the middle of the road is half melted, and a light gray layer has fallen on the snow on both sides. The snow in the middle of the road is more suitable for the dust on the road, mixed into black and gray.
Although their economy is quite developed, because it is a heavy industrial city that needs to burn a lot of coal and coke, the air quality here is not very good. It is foggy all day long. If you take a deep breath, you can smell a very obvious smell of dust.
It was even worse when it snowed. The originally pure white snow was covered with a layer of gray matter left in the air after burning charcoal. It was not as pure white as Tian Tian had imagined, but rather had a gray filter.
She drove to the grocery store. Because it snowed heavily the night before, driving was not easy today. She drove very slowly for fear that the tires would slip.
People on both sides were constantly spreading salt on the road in an attempt to speed up the melting of the snow.
After getting off the bus, you still have to walk a distance to get to the grocery store.
Tian Tian stretched out her feet and stepped on the ground lightly. The snow on the road had already covered the uppers of her shoes. After only walking a few steps, Tian Tian felt her feet were a little frozen.
"Oh my god, I hope my feet won't get frozen again this year."
Tian Tian felt her feet were numb and felt a little uneasy. She hated having her feet frozen the most.
When she arrived at the grocery store, Tian Zhuo was already waiting there.
Tian Tian stamped her feet on the steps, then trotted over and looked at Tian Zhuo's red face. She said in a somewhat reproachful manner, "Why aren't you wearing a hat, gloves, or a scarf? Look at your red face. What if you get frozen?"
Tian Tian muttered to herself as she pulled Tian Zhuo into the department store to warm up. There was honeycomb coal burning in the room, and chimney pipes on top circled the room and then stretched out of the window.
After entering the warm house, Tian Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief. He rubbed his hands which were a little frozen, waiting for his hands to regain consciousness little by little, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief when he felt the warmth in the house.
He had never expected it to be so cold outside today. When he went out in the morning, he saw snowflakes floating in the sky. He thought it would be warm on a snowy day, and he was too lazy to bring a scarf. Who would have thought it would be so cold?
Seeing Tian Zhuo was so cold, Tian Tian asked him to go to the iron stove to warm up, and then she ran to the grocery store and bought all the necessary dried shrimps and kelp. Then she carried Tian Zhuo on her back and ran to a department store not far away.
After entering the department store, Tian Tian pulled Tian Zhuo straight to the garment area on the second floor.
Tian Zhuo looked at his position with a confused look on his face. His eyes accidentally glanced at the price tag of the clothes next to him. A leather jacket cost more than 1,000 yuan. He shuddered suddenly and silently moved a little further away from the leather jacket.
"Sister, why did you bring me here? I have plenty of clothes to wear."
"I won't buy you clothes." Tian Tian pulled Tian Zhuo inside. She was very familiar with the place and it was obvious that she had been here many times.
"There are hats and scarves for sale in front. I'll go buy you one." Tian Tian said.
"No need, sister." Tian Zhuo refused immediately.
Today's scarves are made of pure wool and knitted with yarn, especially those in department stores. They are definitely made of the best quality yarn, and they must be very expensive. After all, a pound of yarn costs several yuan at the cheapest and more than ten yuan at the most. A pure wool scarf must be even more expensive.
"You need it! Why don't you take it home for a while? You still want to go back with your neck bare like this? You'll freeze to death." Tian Tian said angrily.
It's so cold outside today, Tian Zhuo was lucky just now. If he had waited outside for a while longer, Tian Tian was afraid that Tian Zhuo's hands and ears would have been frozen off.
"Let's not buy an expensive scarf. I know you have one in your dormitory. Let's buy a cheaper one first. If you don't want to wear it, you can give it to our parents when you go back." After saying this, Tian Tian went to choose a scarf and a hat.
These scarves come in all kinds of patterns, all with different colors and patterns. The ones they knit at home are mostly all of the same color.
Tian Tian picked out the cheapest scarf and a hat. Tian Zhuo felt even more uncomfortable when he saw the hat. He usually wore the most common Lei Feng hat, but the hat Tian Tian picked out was a furry hat that looked very warm and was made of wool.
"I don't wear this hat. It makes my head itch. After I bought it, no one in my family wears it."
After listening to what Tian Zhuo said, Tian Tian looked at the hat in her hand again and felt that it was indeed true. Woolen hats would be more or less itchy.
Moreover, Tian Zhuo might not be very happy with this knitted furry hat, because it looked a bit girly, and it was decorated with small flowers and bows. It was normal for him to be unwilling. So Tian Tian finally bought a scarf, and she felt a little painful when she heard the price of the scarf.
However, when he left the department store again, he still wrapped the scarf around his neck obediently. The biting cold wind outside could no longer blow his neck, and Tian Zhuo sighed comfortably.
"You see, I told you that there is a big difference between having a scarf and not having one, but you still insisted on not bringing a scarf. What if you catch a cold without one? Won't your parents still worry when you get home?" Tian Tian was carrying two bags of things in her hands and scolding Tian Zhuo, who was also carrying two bags of things next to her.
Because Tian Zhuo didn't wear gloves, Tian Tian tied the rope on the things into a circle and put it on Tian Zhuo's wrist. In this way, Tian Zhuo could put his hands in his pockets and hang the things Tian Tian bought on his wrist.
The two men were so cold that they walked shiveringly into a state-owned restaurant while carrying their food.
With the emergence of small private restaurants, the economy of state-owned hotels has also been impacted. They are no longer as crowded as before. No matter whether they are chefs or waiters, they are all living in the house with nothing to do. When they saw Tian Tian and the others come in, the waiters who were rarely receiving anyone immediately stood up enthusiastically and greeted them.
"Comrades, what do you want to eat? Today the state-owned restaurant has braised pork, braised pork with pork belly, and Chinese cabbage stewed with bones. We also have noodles. We also have stir-fried shredded radish and radish pork ribs soup. What do you want to eat?"
"Give us two bowls of noodles." Tian Tian and Tian Zhuo said as they sat next to the stove.
