"Big country, Second country, you guys stay here and chat with Xia Zhi. Grandma and Aunt Xu will go make you a bowl of noodles to fill your stomach."
"Thank you, grandma." Qiao Daguo and Qiao Erguo politely thanked grandma.
"It's really cold in the north in winter. I was shivering as soon as I got off the train."
As Qiao Daguo said this, he asked Xia Zhi to pour him another bowl of sweet wine.
Qiao Erguo agreed: "Yes, when we came from Wuyang County, it snowed a little at night. I thought we were dressed enough, but we were still cold after getting off the train."
Qiao Xiazhi looked at the two people who were wearing relatively thin clothes and smiled: "Why didn't you write to me and tell me before you came, so that I could pick you up."
"It's your first time in the north. You don't know how cold it is here. You don't know to prepare a coat in advance. Put it on when you get off the train."
"Hurry up, drink something hot to warm yourself up, don't catch a cold."
As he was speaking, Qiao Xiazhi added some spiritual spring water into the kettle while Qiao Daguo and Qiao Erguo were not paying attention.
Ever since her spiritual spring water came through time and space and became super concentrated spiritual spring water, she can only release five liters of it every day.
Because of the restrictions, it cannot be used unlimitedly, and the effect on body conditioning is very obvious, so she doesn't drink the spiritual spring water all the time.
Just make sure that everyone in your family has a drink or two every day.
The rest is put out every day and stored for future use.
The eldest brother and the second brother had been freezing all the way to bring something to her, so a cup of this spiritual spring water was essential.
Otherwise, she would feel guilty to death if she got sick.
"When you wrote back earlier, it was almost New Year's Day when we received it. You thought we would come over after New Year's Day, and you were afraid that your letter might arrive before us, so you didn't write it."
"You're pregnant, and your family is so happy. They were worried that it would be inconvenient for you to exchange eggs and food outside, so grandpa asked me and dad to ask the team to exchange 200 kilograms of food for you."
"And eggs. I exchanged them for 200 eggs in total for you. I also slaughtered five chickens for you. When the brigade was slaughtering pigs and distributing the meat, I bought you 30 kilograms of meat and made it into bacon to bring over."
"Also, the weather here is cold, so grandma, mom, and your sister-in-law made two sets of thick cotton-padded clothes for you."
After hearing what his elder brother said about what he brought, Qiao Xiazhi felt touched and extremely warm.
"Didn't I tell you last time when I went back on the eleventh that I have stockpiled a lot of food here? Your brother-in-law also found a way to get me a lot of eggs. Now I can eat two or three eggs every day."
"If you don't believe me, look. There are not only eggs, but also malted milk and milk powder. We drink and eat them every day." Qiao Xiazhi said as he opened the oversized locker in the room.
It was filled with grains, eggs, milk powder and malted milk.
"As for the meat, in this cold winter, I asked your brother-in-law to build a large natural freezer in the yard, and then stored all the meat, chicken, and large bones in it."
"It's also convenient to take it out and stew it every day."
The temperature in the north is low. If you fill a large bucket with water and leave it in the yard overnight, the water on the outside will freeze into ice.
Wait until the next day and pour out the unsolidified water in the middle and it will become a hollow, natural freezer.
It is too cold to go out to buy groceries every day in winter. Every week when Jiang Yunchen comes back, he will buy a lot of meat and big bones. If he can buy a chicken, he will also buy it.
So Qiao Xiazhi will not be missing from the meal.
Especially for the four children in her belly, Jiang Yunchen was more worried and concerned than anyone else.
Seeing that his younger sister's family had indeed stockpiled a lot of food, Qiao Daguo felt relieved.
Coming here to deliver gifts was secondary. He actually came here on behalf of the whole family to see her and see how she was doing here.
Now that they saw this yard and saw that Xia Zhi was going well, they had nothing to worry about.
Although it was cold outside, the house was very warm and even more comfortable than the house in their hometown.
As long as you don't go out, you won't be cold.
"It's okay. Just eat more and eat slowly since I brought it to you. Before I came, I was worried about how you would survive the cold winter. Now that we're here and see where you live, we feel relieved." Qiao Daguo said.
After saying that, Qiao Daguo took out 130 yuan from his pocket and handed it to Qiao Xiazhi: "This 100 yuan is what my mother asked me to give you. Twenty of the 30 yuan is for my eldest aunt, and ten is for my youngest aunt."
Qiao Xiazhi looked at the money that Qiao Daguo handed over and accepted it without saying much. It was all about everyone's love for her.
Qiao Erguo also took out thirty yuan from his pocket and handed it to Qiao Xiazhi.
It was all family love. There was no reason for Qiao Xiazhi to refuse. He just accepted it all.
Qiao Daguo and Qiao Erguo stayed here for only two days. On the third day they went back because if they didn't go back it would be the New Year.
Qiao Xiazhi wanted to keep them here for the New Year, but the weather was not good this year and they were worried about their family, so they wanted to go back early.
Qiao Xiazhi didn't try to keep them, since they weren't going back home for the New Year, so he took his eldest brother and second brother and bought some things here to take back.
The eldest and second aunts still only give money secretly.
Then, on the third day, they were sent on the train.
When they first came, Su Fang helped greet Uncle Lu, so they were able to come here smoothly with so many things.
On the way back, Uncle Lu naturally recognized the two brothers and knew to take good care of them without asking them.
However, Qiao Xiazhi still sent Uncle Lu two kilograms of bacon and a bottle of good wine.
Just consider it as a New Year gift.
After seeing his elder brother and younger brother board the train safely, Qiao Xiazhi prepared to go home.
