Chapter 753: Home is the Best (Part 8)
It was already half past ten when Lu Xiaoxiao came out of the captain's house. She planned to go home to have a meal first, and then go to her second sister's house and Liu Meihua's house in the afternoon to tell them that she was back. Her second sister and Liu Meihua were the two people she had played best with in Tianshui Village, so naturally she had to tell them that she was back.
After returning home, Lu Xiaoxiao was too lazy to cook, so she took out a portion of clam noodles from her space and started eating. She hadn't eaten clam noodles for almost a year. If she hadn't suddenly wanted to eat clams today, she would have forgotten that she had bought clam noodles.
After lunch, Lu Xiaoxiao thought that Zhang Xu would come back for dinner in the evening, so she went to the snow pile in the yard and dug out a piece of beef that she had frozen in the snow half a month ago. She planned to make beef dumplings for Zhang Xu in the evening.
After Lu Xiaoxiao put the beef into the basin to soak, she took out half a pound of egg cake and half a pound of glutinous rice sticks from the space and walked towards her second sister's house.
When she arrived at her second sister's house, she saw her second sister's father sweeping the snow in the yard, so she called out, "Uncle Pingjiang, is my second sister home?"
Liu Pingjiang raised his head when he heard Lu Xiaoxiao's words. When he saw that the person coming was Lu Xiaoxiao, he quickly said, "Second sister is at home. She is making shoes in the main room now. Go directly into the main room to find her."
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded when she heard Liu Pingjiang's words, and then she walked towards the main room.
"Second sister." When Lu Xiaoxiao entered the main room, she called out to her second sister who was bending down to make shoes.
The second sister immediately raised her head when she heard Lu Xiaoxiao's voice. When she saw Lu Xiaoxiao standing at the door, she excitedly put down the things in her hands, jumped off the kang and ran towards Lu Xiaoxiao.
"You're finally back. I went to your house to look for you twice, but you didn't come back. I thought you wouldn't come back until after the Chinese New Year."
"Didn't I tell you when I went to Harbin that I would be back in about half a month? Why did you still come to my house to find me?" Lu Xiaoxiao said after hearing her second sister's words.
"I thought you would come back early, but you wouldn't come back for half a month."
"Go sit on the kang first. You ran over here without even wearing shoes. Aren't you afraid of the cold?" Lu Xiaoxiao said to her second sister when she saw her second sister standing on the ground barefoot.
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, the second sister realized that she had forgotten to wear shoes because she was too excited. She scratched her head a little embarrassedly, then quickly ran back to sit on the kang.
"Xiaoxiao, come sit on the kang and warm yourself up. The weather is getting colder. Did you feel the wind on your face on the way here? It felt like a knife scraping at your face. It was really painful."
When Lu Xiaoxiao heard her second sister's words, she recalled the feeling of the wind blowing on her face on the way here. She didn't seem to feel the feeling that her second sister described. She just felt a little cold, which might be related to her practice.
"I was wearing a big scarf, so the wind didn't feel like a knife in my face, but it was still very cold."
"Then drink a cup of hot water to warm yourself up."
"Okay." Lu Xiaoxiao picked up the hot water that her second sister poured for her and drank it slowly.
"Xiaoxiao, is Harbin fun?" The second sister asked Lu Xiaoxiao after she finished drinking the hot water.
After hearing what her second sister said, Lu Xiaoxiao said, "I didn't go out in Harbin during this heavy snow, so I didn't feel it was fun. But people in Harbin burn stoves in their houses in winter, which is much warmer than here."
