Chi Xingyue was woken up in such an environment. He opened the curtains and took a look. He felt that it had nothing to do with him, so he did not get out of the car.
He poured himself a cup of ginger sugar water, but before he could even put it in his mouth, he saw Shu Muyun open his eager eyes.
Chi Xingyue immediately placed the cup in front of her mother-in-law and said, "Mom, rest for a while. Wait until they break through the ice before we get off the car."
Shu Muyun nodded, yawning and stretching.
The elbow just happened to hit Ling Weicheng's face, waking up his father-in-law who was eating roast duck in his dream.
Men are different from women. When they hear the excitement outside, they become restless.
He rubbed his hands and asked his wife: "How about I go down and take a look?"
Shu Muyun didn't bother to pay attention to him and waved his hand: "Whatever!"
Anyway, she has her daughter-in-law to accompany her, so she doesn't want this old man.
Ling*Old Man* Weicheng straightened his cotton-padded jacket and got out of the car in a very graceful manner. He saw the eyes of the old and young women and children in the village looking at him, which were very hot.
That’s right, although he is a grandfather, he is only in his thirties this year, not yet forty.
In Fang Chi Xingyue's era, many successful people were still unmarried.
Although he is a little older, the traces left by time have made him more elegant.
The temperament that settles inside is enough to make women who have never seen the world blush. They dare not even look at him for too long.
Shu Muyun had seen so much that she didn't think her man was recruiting someone.
If divorce and remarriage were not unpopular in the village, these old ladies would definitely try their best.
As for youngsters like Ling Jiheng and Ling Jiren, haha, they were just glanced at a few times, and no one paid any attention to them at all.
It’s simple. None of the young girls from the village came. Only young wives, aunts, and grandmothers came.
Although at the beginning, there was also the idea of sending my daughter and niece to the Ling family as concubines.
But after getting along with each other, they all knew that the women of the Ling family were powerful. If the younger generation of their family went there, they would probably never have a chance to make a name for themselves.
Besides, life in the village is better now, so there is no need to have any bad thoughts.
Isn't it good to find someone of equal status? You know your background well, and you don't have to worry about being bullied or cheated.
Shu Muyun didn't know what was happening outside. He drank a cup of ginger and jujube tea slowly, but still felt it was not enough.
Just as he was about to pour it out again, Chi Xingyue stopped him: "Mom, it's not easy to pee outside, let's just drink a little to warm ourselves up."
Shu Muyun blushed and glared at Chi Xingyue, but he also listened to the advice.
After lifting the curtain and looking for a while, he started chatting with his daughter-in-law.
What kind of gossip is this? It’s naturally about the backyard affairs of those wealthy families in Jiangning Prefecture.
"Alas, what a pity! I don't know if we'll ever have the chance to reunite in this lifetime!"
Chi Xingyue didn't know either, but subconsciously comforted her: "Yes, when the ice and snow melt, maybe everyone will move north. Then we can meet again."
Shu Muyun smiled, disagreeing. Little did he know that Chi Xingyue was being completely accurate.
Boom boom boom, clang clang clang, snap snap snap...
This made Chi Xingyue a little curious.
After asking Shu Muyun for her opinion, the two of them got out of the car together. The exquisite clothes and delicate makeup of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law once again became the focus of everyone's attention.
However, he only glanced at it for a few seconds before turning his attention back to the man who was chiseling the ice.
It is said that men who work hard are the most attractive. Compared with the boy from the Ling family who just came out and was exhausted before he could swing the shovel twice, the son of my husband, who is usually so rough that he is unsightly, doesn't seem so bad.
Ah, thanks to Ling Jiren and Ling Jiyi, they were able to finally find favor with their own family members whom they had despised thousands of times.
Ling Jiheng noticed the commotion here and hurried over to ask his young wife if she had any instructions.
Chi Xingyue looked at the smooth surface of the lake and became playful. She asked Ling Jiheng to hold the wooden handle of the shovel and drag it in front, while she squatted on it and let him pull it.
Cheerful laughter floated in the air, and Chi Xingyue soared over the ice like a bird.
Seeing this, Ling Weiwei, Ling Mingyue, Ling Minghao and Shu Rui also pestered the adults to play.
The Ling family doted on their children, so they let them squat on the shovel and the father slowly pulled it forward.
That speed was almost the same as walking. But even this made the children so happy that they almost shouted at the top of their lungs.
The children from the village who came to join in the fun were full of envy, but how could the adults give them such an important farm tool as a shovel?
Even if they promise not to break it.
Sure enough, without me having to say anything, the mother turned her face away.
He was full of envy and jealousy because he had never played it before.
I feel it is inappropriate, but I envy her for having a good husband.
When the Ling family goes out to play, they naturally can’t be so alone.
Seeing that the children in the village were about to cry, Ling Yi and others raised their hands to call them over and gave them a trial card.
Even Ling Weicheng felt that Shu Muyun's eyes were a bit resentful. In the end, he put aside his dignity as a man and ran several laps with his wife.
In the end, I only had one feeling, which was that my physical strength was not as good as before.
Look, Ling Jiheng can pull Chi Xingyue to run two rounds without getting red in the face or out of breath.
He was in trouble. He had just taken a few steps when his face and neck turned red. Not only was he having trouble breathing, he almost slipped.
Alas, his image as a handsome man has completely collapsed.
If Ling Jiheng knew what his father was thinking, he would definitely say, "Do you think I drank all that spiritual spring water for free?"
After the ice was broken, Chi Xingyue called everyone to go ashore.
Although the ice on the river was at least half a meter thick, Chi Xingyue felt that a gentleman would not stand under a dangerous wall, and it would be safer on the shore.
The children of the Ling family were very cooperative and didn't show any reluctance at all.
It was the children in the village who were dragging their feet and refused to leave.
Ling Yi and his companions did not tolerate them and directly sent the shovel to the shore.
Seeing this, the children had no choice but to go ashore, but their eyes would occasionally glance over here.
Chi Xingyue went back to the car and drank a bowl of ginger and jujube tea, then called Weiwei and the others over.
I made sure they all drank the hot soup before letting them go back to the car to rest.
Then, while no one was paying attention, he added spiritual spring water into the teapot.
Add more dates and ginger slices, and as for the brown sugar, just add some color.
He got out of the car and called Ling San to light a fire nearby.
Two holes have just appeared in the ice on the river surface. It will probably take a long time before the fishing season starts.
Let's light a fire and boil some ginger soup to prevent anyone from catching a cold. It's too much trouble to go to Dr. Cheng's house during the New Year.
Ling San nodded, built a simple stove with stones from the river bank, took some firewood and straw from the ox cart, and lit it with a tinderbox.
Later, he placed the iron pot on the ground, scooped some clean snow from a distance, and poured it into the pot to melt.
Wait for the snow water to boil, then throw in the ginger slices prepared by Aunt Taohua, boil it for a while, and then you can drink it.
Ling San shouted to the shivering people on the river, "Uncle Village Head, let everyone take turns coming over to have a drink of something hot!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people dropped their tools and rushed to the shore.
