Yun Qiao's impression of the capital city is the countless skyscrapers and the lingering smell of disinfectant that fills his nose.
Everyone has an ostrich mentality, and Yun Qiao is no exception.
The main reason why she didn't want to go to Beijing was due to practical factors.
She asked, "Brother, isn't it hard to get a job in Beijing?"
"It's not easy, but it won't be difficult for me." Qin Zheng didn't even frown. "Just tell me if you want to go. As long as you want to go, I can definitely get it for you."
"Brother, that's not necessary. There's no need to go around asking for favors or asking for favors just for a job." Yun Qiao said with a smile, "I'm doing fine here now."
"What's good about that? I've been here for over a decade, so I don't know what it's like here." Qin Zheng said with a straight face, "Don't reject me too quickly. Think about it before you answer me! In any case, going to the capital is definitely better than staying in the Great Northern Wilderness."
Yun Qiao still shook his head: "Brother, I know the capital is good, but I don't want you to go around asking people for help for me."
"Yun Qiao, this is nothing. I'm your brother, and this is what I should do." Qin Zheng looked at Yun Qiao seriously, "You're my biological sister! If I don't help you, who will?"
Yun Qiao's heart warmed, and his eyes became a little sore, "Brother..."
"Okay, don't rush to answer me on this matter." Qin Zheng patted Yun Qiao's shoulder, "Think about it carefully and tell me when you've made up your mind."
Yun Qiao nodded, "Well, I'll think about it carefully."
The small snowflakes in the sky gradually grew larger, and soon a thin layer of snow accumulated on the ground, shining with a faint silver light under the moonlight.
Heavy snow fell all night, and as the night wore on, a thick layer of snow piled up on the ground. The roofs, the walls, and the ground were all covered in a dazzling white.
Early in the morning, Qin Zheng took a ladle and started clearing the snow.
When Yun Qiao got up, Qin Zheng had already cleared most of the snow in the yard and shoveled out a path leading outside.
Seeing this, Yun Qiao hurriedly took out a big broom to help.
"I don't need your help, I can do it myself." Qin Zheng refused her intervention and waved her back into the house: "It's cold outside, you stay in the house."
Sun Lan, the military wife living next door, heard Qin Zheng's voice, stopped shoveling snow, and walked to the base of the shared wall. From atop the half-person-high wall, she said with envy, "Captain Qin is so considerate, doing all the dirty work yourself. Whoever marries you will be blessed for life."
Hearing Sun Lan's words, Qin Zheng smiled and did not respond.
What are you talking about?
That this is what men should do?
He is not tactless. If he says this, he will offend people.
After all, Sun Lan's husband Chen Ying didn't come out to sweep the snow, so Sun Lan did all the dirty and tiring work at home by herself.
Qin Zheng didn't respond, and Sun Lan wasn't embarrassed. She smiled at Yun Qiao and said, "Big sister, you are Captain Qin's sister, right? You are so pretty, aren't you? You and Captain Qin are from the same family. There are no ugly people in your family. What's your name?"
Yun Qiao smiled at her politely: "Sister-in-law, my name is Yun Qiao."
"Yun Qiao, what a nice name! It sounds so cultured, like a girl from a big city. It's nothing like the names we get from the countryside." Sun Lan said with a smile, "Your brother has been looking for you for so long, and he finally got what he wanted. Now that you're here, we're neighbors from now on. If you need anything, just come to my house and see me."
Yun Qiao smiled and nodded: "Okay, thank you sister-in-law."
"Don't be polite with my sister-in-law. We are neighbors, and it's our duty to look after each other." Sun Lan said readily, then turned around with the spade and continued to sweep the snow.
After saying that, Qin Zheng also urged Yun Qiao to go into the house quickly, "Hurry up and go in. It's too cold outside. Don't freeze yourself."
Qin Zheng was working outside, and Yun Qiao couldn't feel at ease to go into the house and do nothing, so he simply went into the kitchen and helped Aunt Feng, who was cooking, to light the fire.
Aunt Feng is making scallion pancakes.
I bought groceries yesterday and the grocery store gave me two green onions as a bonus. I chopped them into fine pieces, mixed them with peanut oil and flour to make a pastry, rolled them into dough, formed them into small pieces, rolled them into thin round cakes, and put them in a frying pan to bake.
Finally, it is fried into scallion pancakes, which are golden and crispy on the outside, but soft and chewy on the inside. The scallion fragrance is overflowing when you bite into it. Paired with a bowl of hot spicy soup, it is so delicious.
Yun Qiao helped to light the fire. Aunt Feng baked the scallion pancakes and put them into her belly as soon as they came out of the pan.
Qin Zheng continued to clear the snow in the yard. After a while, all the snow in the yard was cleared.
He propped the shovel against the wall outside the kitchen, brushed the snow off his hands, and went into the house.
At this time, Aunt Feng had already baked the last few scallion pancakes in her hand. Seeing Qin Zheng come in, she smiled gently and said, "Xiao Zheng, the scallion pancakes are ready. Hurry and wash your hands and come over to eat."
Qin Zheng responded, washed his hands and sat down at the table.
Feng Juan had just tidied Yuanyuan up and led her to sit at the dining table.
Yuanyuan smiled sweetly at Yun Qiao and Qin Zheng: "Sister, brother, good morning."
Yun Qiao: "Good morning, Yuanyuan."
After the family finished their breakfast together, Qin Zheng put on his hat and prepared to go out to work. Before leaving, he said to Aunt Feng in advance: "Grandma, I may not be back for lunch, so you don't have to wait for me."
