Chapter 180 Overthinking
Shen Qianfei couldn't refuse, so she accepted it.
Then she bought some things for herself. The New Year was coming soon, so she prepared a gift for everyone in the family.
All of these were placed on the special plane, and then on a snowy winter day, Shen Qianfei and Li Xianzhi arrived at the provincial capital, then got on a car and headed towards Yuanbao Village.
Knowing that Shen Qianfei was coming back today, the Luo family was busy inside and outside.
In previous years, when it snowed heavily, the road was very difficult to walk on. It was okay on the highway, but in the village, the ground was deep and shallow, making it extremely difficult to walk, and driving a car was out of the question.
But Luo Feng has been clearing the snow these days.
The same is true when it snows.
He is selfish.
I know that my granddaughter will definitely be back in the next few days, and she and Xianzhi will come back by car, so the road must not have too much snow.
Under his leadership, the elderly people in the village who had nothing to do joined him in cleaning the roads.
Including Village Chief Yu.
Then everyone discovered that clearing snow also has its benefits.
First of all, they benefit.
It is really convenient to travel now.
So those who used to make sarcastic remarks behind others’ backs became much more honest at first.
One kind of rice feeds a hundred kinds of people.
At the beginning, when Luo Feng was sweeping the snow on the road, there were more than one or two people who laughed at him. Although they didn't dare to laugh at him in front of him, they gathered together and talked about it happily behind his back.
In the countryside, this is the time to hibernate. After all, it is winter and heavy snow covers the entire field. There is not much work to do, especially now that there is no collective work. You can do your own work whenever you want.
Except for two families who have built greenhouses, there is really nothing to do in the winter.
Especially now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, everyone gathers together on the warm kang at home.
What do we do when we get together?
Looking at cards, playing poker, smoking, drinking and chatting.
This is basically the main living condition of these people at present.
Speaking of televisions, there were only three in the entire village.
There is one at the Luo family and one at the village chief's house.
There is also a stone home.
The family has erected a tall antenna, but it can only receive two TV stations, but that is enough.
No one dared to join in the fun at the village chief's house.
Luo Feng's family lives opposite the Li family, which is a bit far from their main residential area.
Besides, they didn't dare to go.
Shitou's house is not big, so he can sit outside the window and watch the TV in the summer, but he can only sit inside the house in the winter. Shitou just married a new wife, and the TV is placed in his new wife's room.
They are even more difficult to see.
So most of the time we just listen to the radio and chat together.
Some people laughed at the old man of the Luo family for having nothing to do after eating, and then having some money and not knowing how to show off, he actually started sweeping the streets.
This was heard and told to the old man, but Luo Feng didn't care at all.
According to Luo Feng's idea, these people are actually the ones who have free time.
Although I'm tired after three seasons, it's time to take a break.
But this winter is also very long.
But there is no better way at the moment.
Village Chief Yu can only prevent everyone from engaging in illegal entertainment.
I have no control over what other people do.
So these people gossip together, but after the benefits are revealed, they really shut up quietly.
They also spontaneously go out to sweep the streets when it snows.
The highway leading to the provincial capital at the west end of the village has become a very solid road because of the large number of vehicles passing through.
Just drive carefully and you'll be fine.
Then they also swept the snow to the area bordering the road.
When Shen Qianfei entered the village, she didn't expect that the winter in Yuanbao Village would be like this.
The ground was not clean at all, as it was covered with a layer of solid, trampled white snow.
It's not very thick, so it's fine for people walking, carriages, or even cars.
This is the first time I've seen it.
The villagers walking on the road seemed to have a much lighter pace.
Soon, the car arrived in front of the gates of the two houses.
Lolo was wearing a red down jacket and a hat knitted with woolen yarn.
It was red, with two small balls on it, and it flew towards Shen Qianfei like a little red butterfly.
She said, "Sister, you are finally back. I missed you so much..."
Then the eyes look backwards.
Shen Qianfei pinched her sister's cold but rosy face and said, "Little girl, do you miss your sister or the gift she brought?"
Luo Luo twisted her body and said, "I want everything..."
Then she ran to the trunk of the car and, of course, greeted Li Xianzhi sweetly, "Brother Li."
When Li Xianzhi saw Lolo, his eyes softened a lot. The little girl was innocent, romantic and very cute.
He glanced at Shen Qianfei and said, "I have been at home recently..."
Shen Qianfei curled the corners of her mouth and nodded slightly.
Today is already the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month.
The Chinese New Year is just a few days away.
Now the New Year atmosphere can be seen everywhere in the village.
So what Mr. Li meant was, would he spend the New Year here? Shen Qianfei said a few words to Li Xianzhi and then went home.
As soon as I entered the kitchen, I smelled a fragrant aroma.
Blood sausage stewed with sauerkraut and large bones.
Chicken stew with mushrooms.
My mother had an apron tied around her waist and was busy cooking at the stove.
Although the house is a little shabby, it is extremely warm.
Without waiting for the guards from the Li family to come out, Luo Feng had already swept the snow in front of and behind the Li family's old house.
The front door of the Li family was naturally clean.
Judging from the way the neighbors in the village get along with each other, they should have invited Li Xianzhi to their home for a meal a long time ago.
However, the old man felt that the environment in his home was really bad. They had already gotten used to it, but to let such a clean, handsome, and elegant person who looked like a god sit in the dark kitchen and eat with them, he felt that it was a bit unfair to Li Xianzhi.
Although he did not invite Li Xianzhi to his house for dinner, he still brought the two stewed dishes over.
This is a typical farm dish from the north, and it is also a very hard dish. Shen Qianfei took two bowls of food to the Li family on a tray from home.
Li Xianzhi had just finished washing up, and there was a chef here who cooked for him.
Knowing the news in advance, the food was naturally prepared long ago.
Then, Shen Qianfei was invited to stay for dinner.
Eat with Li Xianzhi.
After Luo Feng knew about this, a saying suddenly came to his mind: throwing a meat bun at a dog will never come back.
This description seems a bit inappropriate.
But, it is true.
Luo Feng thought to himself, since his eldest granddaughter was not an ordinary girl and could keep it a secret, he couldn't say anything...
Shen Qianfei didn't feel anything about it because she was used to eating with Li Xianzhi.
After coming back, because of her casual attitude, Luo Yufen, who wanted to ask something, felt that she seemed to be overthinking...
