Chapter 4: Living in the Snow?
Live here?
Although Chen Yi felt that it was inappropriate, as the team leader said, the house was uninhabitable and would be even colder without a kang.
And if she were arranged to live in someone else's home, she would probably be even more restricted.
She is alone here and can do whatever she wants.
Actually, this is a good thing.
The team didn't need many people in the middle of winter, and most of them were from the village, so these educated youth had nothing to do.
But you have to go to the mountains to collect firewood for burning, and other than that there is basically nothing else to do.
Chen Yi stayed in the empty house for a whole day. Besides tidying up things in the space, she also sorted out the original owner's things.
She didn't have any clothes that matched her era, so except for the new ones, she packed the rest of the clothes she had worn in a separate box and kept them away.
The rest were the things I had packed, a set of bedding, three luggage bags, and a suitcase.
It looked like a lot of stuff, but the cotton jacket and trousers alone filled an entire luggage bag, and that was just one set.
Fang Xiaoli brought even more things than her, five full suitcases. That was because the Fang family didn't want their child to suffer any loss, so they brought more things.
By the time Chen Yi had packed up her things, it was already dark and the room was chilly.
She put away the cornmeal that the team leader had brought her in the afternoon, and then added firewood to the stove.
She didn't know how to make a fire, but she had seen Li Qinglin help with the fire, so she was fine with adding firewood.
The wind outside is still very strong, and it seems a bit desolate to be here alone.
Chen Yi encouraged herself, then took out a gas stove from the space, on which was a pot of red oil.
You have to eat hot pot in the winter!
There is everything in the space, so these things are naturally not lacking.
Prepare some vegetables, beef and mutton, then make a dipping sauce and get ready to eat.
Although it is more convenient to eat in the space, it is hot over there and very cold in this room, which is suitable for eating hot pot.
Chen Yi's physique is that she is afraid of heat but not cold, so eating hot pot in summer is simply unbearable for her.
The other side.
Li Qinglin was a little surprised when he saw the person in front of him, "Aren't you supposed to come back after the Chinese New Year? Why are you back early?"
I had notified him before, so I never thought he would come back early.
The person in front of me was about twenty-one or twenty-two years old, tall, about 1.8 meters tall.
He had a sheepskin hat on his head and his face was a little red from the cold, but it still couldn't hide his handsome and sunny face.
He Mingcheng looked at him in confusion, "What's wrong with me coming back? My home is in this brigade, I can come back whenever I want."
It's really inexplicable!
Li Qinglin smiled awkwardly when he heard that. "Hey, what are you talking about? This is quite sudden. By the way, you can't go back to your house now."
He hasn't told anyone about this yet. Besides, it's late at night, he can't just kick the girl out, right?
This time He Mingcheng was even more puzzled, "Why can't I go back to my house? Did you demolish my house?"
He has a home but cannot go back. Is this person looking for trouble?
"No, no." Li Qinglin quickly explained the matter.
Finally, he said, "There is really no room at the educated youth site. You know that every household in our brigade is so crowded that there is really no place to accommodate them. Can you drive the female comrades out at this late hour?"
this……
He Mingcheng stood there with a dark face, very angry. "Uncle Lin, I admit that I didn't tell you in advance that I would come back. Let that person make room for me tomorrow."
Why can’t I go back home when I have one?
He can't live in the snow, can he?
What is this?
Li Qinglin understood what he was thinking. After all, no one would feel comfortable with this.
How can I not be able to return to my own home and have to give it to others to live in?
"Okay, I'll go see who has room tomorrow and make some arrangements first." He first agreed to He Mingcheng, and then let him sleep with his son for a night.
Li Minxing was very happy to see He Mingcheng, and people of his generation were particularly envious of him.
Working as a driver in a forest farm, I earn 28 yuan a month, which is the salary of a regular worker!
They are still working in the fields, earning more than 20 yuan.
"Brother Cheng, you're back! Tell me about the world and where have you been recently?"
He Mingcheng had no choice but to follow him back and told him about his business trip experience...
After eating and drinking his fill, Chen Yi lay on the kang and found it quite warm.
I don’t know if it’s because of the hotpot, but the room isn’t so cold anymore.
She got up and put everything into the space, then sprayed some air freshener in the room.
This way, there will be no smell of hot pot in the house tomorrow morning.
After taking a look at the heated kang, Chen Yi took out her bedding and wiped the woven kang mat.
She will sleep on the kang tonight. She had experienced it before when she went to a farmhouse and it was very relaxing. She will try it this time.
After adding firewood to the stove, Chen Yi lay quietly on the kang.
After two days of rest, she has gotten used to it.
It is really not easy to experience the present peace without the turmoil of the end of the world.
…
When Chen Yi woke up the next morning, looking at the snow falling all over the sky, she almost thought it was still dark.
I looked at my watch and it was already eight o'clock.
The wind and snow were howling outside, and you couldn't see anything more than five meters away.
"What kind of weather is this?"
She had never experienced the winter in Northeast China, so she was amazed when she saw this scene.
Just as she was staring in a trance, a man with a backpack came over from a distance.
Chen Yi was stunned for a moment, but this was someone else's house, so it was possible that they were looking for the owner.
She quickly folded the quilt and placed it on the kang, and the other luggage was also there.
Someone pushed the door outside, but it didn't open, and then there was a knock on the door.
"Open the door!"
Hearing this impatient tone, Chen Yi, who was living under someone else's roof, couldn't say anything and could only patiently open the door.
"Oh my god, it's so cold!" The man started brushing the snow off his body as he entered the door.
There was white snow from the knees down, and it seemed that it had been snowing outside for a long time.
"Are you the educated youth?" the man asked as he took off his hat.
Chen Yi nodded. What does that educated youth mean?
The man ignored her and walked straight into the inner room, using a broom made of sorghum stalks to sweep the snow off his legs and shoes.
"My name is He Mingcheng, and I'm the owner of this house." He said without even looking up, "The captain has found someone for you to live with, and will come pick you up in a while."
After saying that, he threw the broom into the corner and sat down on the edge of the kang.
Only then did Chen Yi see his appearance. He looked young, but had a mature temperament and a handsome appearance.
But she had seen too many handsome men and beautiful women, so she said directly: "I'm sorry for the inconvenience these two days."
No matter what, she had troubled others by staying at their home for two nights.
It's not difficult to be polite to him.
Please collect it!
Let me clear the air for you all first. The male and female protagonists are together because of rumors. If you mind, you don't need to watch this movie now.
I have already made it clear, please go easy on me, thank you.
