Wei Yang and Wei Yan, both wearing furry hats, were rolling happily in the snow, and their laughter, as clear as bells, spread throughout the yard.
Because of the heavy snow, Qin Li was wrapped up like a dumpling with gloves on his hands. Before he could react, Qin Han pulled him outside.
The child is only three years old, but he looks too old, without any of the innocence that is normal for his age.
In the yard, Qin Han asked Qin Li to build a snowman, and he would not be given breakfast if he didn't.
Under his tyranny, Qin Li had no choice but to build a snowman obediently.
He was doing it very seriously, and his expression looked like he was doing something very important.
But Qin Han didn't want him to build the snowman so quickly, so he whispered to Wei Yang and Wei Yan to destroy it.
The two children also hated it. After listening to what brother Han'er said, they happily came to brother Qin Li and broke up the ball that had just been formed.
"Brother Li'er, come and catch us!" Wei Yang said while running.
In this way, Qin Li kept chasing the two people, grabbing a handful of snow and throwing it on them from time to time.
Soon a group of dogs joined the team, and the yard was once again filled with the innocent laughter of children.
Even Qin Li showed a rare smile. Finally, he was exhausted. He bent down with his hands on his knees, looked at Wei Yan who was still making faces at him, and said breathlessly: "Don't run if you have the guts. You actually broke my snowman. I'll spank you hard if I catch you."
Although he is a year younger than the two of them, his mind is much more mature than theirs.
Wei Yang and Wei Yan were not afraid of him and looked as if they were saying, "You can't do anything to us."
Qin Han was like an outsider, looking as if it had nothing to do with him and letting them laugh and play.
In the kitchen, Old Mrs. Qin started making dumplings early in the morning.
In this kind of weather, eating a bowl of steaming dumplings is more comfortable than anything else.
There was not much work to do at home when the weather got cold, and what she thought about every day was what to cook for the children.
During this period, the dishes were almost never repeated.
Even if it is the same dish, she will cook it differently.
In the backyard, the two brothers Qin Jiandang and Qin Jianguo were chopping firewood. They took turns chopping, and soon they had finished chopping the matches they would use today.
Qin Jiandang walked into the kitchen with firewood. Seeing that the dumplings had not yet started to cook, he took the initiative to start a fire.
Thinking that the Chinese New Year will come in about two months, Old Lady Qin couldn't help but sigh: "Unconsciously, the children in the family have grown up, some are working, and some are going to college in other places.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, I wonder if Qiu'er and the others will come back to celebrate the New Year this year."
"Our children are very sensible. If nothing happens, they will definitely come home for the New Year. Don't worry, Mom." Zhang Xiumei said from the side.
In the morning, the children all had a bowl of steaming dumplings.
The dumplings were filled with egg and leek. Each dumpling weighed two taels. Two of Qin Li’s younger children could be full.
Qin Han hasn't eaten dumplings for a long time, but he doesn't like to eat them with vinegar because he doesn't like sour food very much.
Others eat it with vinegar and garlic, and it tastes so delicious.
But none of them were Qin Han's cup of tea. He couldn't stand the taste of garlic in his mouth.
After eating the dumplings, there were still seven or eight left in the pot. Qin Han thought that he had no classes today, so he planned to go to Zhu Likang's house.
Usually he would invite Zhu Likang to his house for dinner, but he had never been to Zhu Likang's house since school started.
Thinking that the boy was concentrating on helping him with his homework, he thought he should bring some dumplings to reward him.
When Old Lady Qin learned that Han'er wanted to send the remaining dumplings to Zhu Likan, she packed them in a lunch box without saying a word.
Since the dumplings were too big to fit in one lunch box, they used Qin Qing's lunch box.
Upon learning that Qin Han was going out, Wei Yang grumbled and wanted to follow him.
But it was icy and snowy outside, and it was not a good time to go out, so Qin Han did not take her out.
Along the way, Qin Han walked very fast. When there was no one around, he teleported and arrived at the entrance of Zhu Likang's village in less than ten minutes.
The Zhu family is considered a big family here, with a total of more than 200 households, more than four times more than Zaojiazhuang.
All the people living in this village are surnamed Zhu, unlike Zaojiazhuang which has many people with different surnames. They were all refugees from famine and later settled down here.
Old man Qin always said that his ancestors were from the royal family and that Qin Shi Huang was the ancestor of their Qin family.
Qin Han didn’t know whether it was true or not, he only knew that his grandfather was also a boastful person.
After entering the village, Qin Han didn't meet many people along the way. In such a cold weather, many people not only didn't want to go out, but also didn't even open the door.
Although the snow outside has stopped, the cold wind still blows on my face, making it painful.
Qin Han was walking on the way to Zhu Likang's house when he heard someone calling him, "Student Qin!"
The voice sounded familiar. Qin Han turned around immediately and saw Zhu Likang's aunt looking at him with a smile on her face.
"It's really classmate Qin. Why are you here in such a snowy day? Come inside and sit for a while. It's cold outside. Be careful not to catch a cold." Zhu Likang's aunt waved at Qin Han.
Qin Han thought that he was not very familiar with her, so he pulled his tongue and said coldly, “What’s the matter with you?”
"What can happen to me? I'm just worried that you'd be cold. Look, you're holding something in your hand. If I'm not mistaken, it must be for that kid Li Kang, right?
The road to his house is not easy to walk, put your things down and I will take them to you later."
At first Qin Han thought she might have something to do with him, but it turned out she was waiting here. If he gave her the dumplings, wouldn't it be like throwing meat buns at a dog, which would never come back?
Qin Han naturally didn't believe that she was so kind, so he refused directly: "It's okay, I can deliver it myself!"
After saying that, he no longer paid any attention to Zhu Likang's aunt and walked straight towards Zhu Likang's house.
Seeing that Qin Han ignored her, the smile on Aunt Zhu Likang's face cooled, and then she looked disdainful. It was just sending some food, but she really thought it was a big deal.
Even from a distance, she could smell the fragrance coming from the lunch box in Qin Han's hand.
She had noticed many times before that Zhu Likang brought a lot of delicious food home from school, all of which were given to him by his deskmate.
Several times, she picked some off, and the taste was so good that you would want to eat more.
I don’t know how Zhu Likan got the good fortune to have such a good deskmate.
During the five years of primary school, he not only had to attend classes but also did farm work, but he did not lose weight at all, and his complexion became better and better.
"Mom, didn't you say there was something delicious? Where is the food?" Her son's voice interrupted her thoughts.
