Riding a bicycle in winter is a particularly painful thing. The cold wind is unstoppable and always blows into your body like a knife!
Ye Zhiqiu returned to the alleyway of his home and got some rice and flour from the space, about 50 kilograms each. He put the two bags in a sack and tied it in the back seat.
There was also a cleaned chicken and two pounds of pork taken out from the space in the basket. After more than an hour's journey, they had frozen solid.
Ye Zhiqiu had just pushed the bike back to the courtyard gate when it was opened. It seemed that his family was worried about him and stayed in the kitchen of the back house, and heard the noise of his bike.
Ye Tianya breathed a sigh of relief. He whispered, "Son, why are you back so late? Your mother is so worried. She won't go to bed until she sees you back!"
Ye Zhiqiu pointed to the bicycle's belongings, and Ye Tianya immediately understood what was going on and helped carry the bicycle back to the yard. He carefully closed the gate, trying not to make too much noise.
Ye Zhiqiu parked his bicycle and whispered to Ye Tianya who was coming over after closing the door, "I went to buy some supplies. I got some rice and flour, a large fan chicken, and more than two kilograms of pork.
Dad, put the things away. I've been in the cold wind all the way. I need to go back to the house to warm up and drink some hot water."
Without caring about being surprised by the large amount of food and meat, Ye Tianya quickly said to him, "Okay, I'll put the things away. You hurry into the house to warm up. Your mother is still waiting for you in the living room."
Ye Zhiqiu nodded and walked quickly to the living room.
Wang Xiaolan finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Ye Zhiqiu coming back. She was so worried yesterday because he had said he was going to get something, so she couldn't sleep peacefully without seeing him.
Before she could ask, Ye Zhiqiu, who had closed the door, said to her, "Mom, pour me a bowl of hot water. The wind is too cold tonight. It's making me numb."
Wang Xiaolan didn't have time to ask any questions and hurried to get a bowl of hot water.
Ye Zhiqiu held the bowl in his hand, not afraid of the heat at all. He blew on it twice and then slowly drank it. After half a bowl of hot water, he finally felt less numb!
Wang Xiaolan then asked, "Son, don't come back so late next time. You really scared me. I was always worried that something might happen to you and I wouldn't be able to come back."
Ye Zhiqiu explained with a smile, "Well, I was late when I went to Xiaomei's place. Plus, I went to deal with some things, so it's late now.
Tonight I prepared fifty kilograms of rice, fifty kilograms of flour, a large fan-shaped chicken, and more than two kilograms of pork!
Mom, please invite Uncle Qian and his family over for dinner tomorrow and cook the chicken and pork, but I won’t be eating at home.
I promised them that I would get some fresh pork tomorrow and make braised pork for your future daughter-in-law tonight!"
Wang Xiaolan smiled happily and asked, "Why are you suddenly saying you're my future daughter-in-law today? Has your Aunt Chen agreed to your marriage?"
Ye Zhiqiu smiled and nodded, "As expected of my mother, she understood what I meant the moment I heard it! Aunt Chen told me that after Xiaomei gets a job next June, we can apply to get the marriage certificate!"
Wang Xiaolan was particularly happy. Although Feng Xiaomei showed that she liked her son, she was still waiting for her son to come back.
But Chen Yuqing never expressed her opinion. Now she is relieved that the eldest brother's marriage is settled.
She put on her coat and said happily, "Mom is so happy. I'm going to take a look at the things you brought back first, and then I'll go back to bed. You can just turn off the lights!"
"Go ahead, I'll turn off the lights."
It was already very late at this time. After drinking the water, Ye Zhiqiu got up, turned off the lights, and closed the door of the living room from the outside to prevent the wind from blowing the door open.
The light in the kitchen was still on, and it seemed that Ye Tianya and the others were still in there, probably processing the pork.
Ye Zhiqiu knew very well that they were reluctant to eat it all at once. After all, there was also a large fan chicken, and using the pork for three meals was considered generous of Wang Xiaolan!
After returning to the room, Ye Zhiqiu took off his clothes and hat, hung them up, turned off the lights, and got into bed.
I lay there for a while before I started to feel warm. The temperature outside must be around -10 degrees Celsius. But it's not surprising. I've experienced temperatures of -20 degrees Celsius in previous years, so this is considered normal.
But in the past, when it was so cold, people in the countryside would stay indoors and no one would go out.
As for what was happening in the city, Ye Zhiqiu honestly had no idea! After all, he hadn't even finished his first winter in the city before he was taken to Hami.
Thinking of Feng Yuanzheng, Ye Zhiqiu sighed, wondering how he was doing. If he pretended not to know his information, it would be a torture for him!
Ye Zhiqiu did not sleep well that night because the little goblin Feng Xiaomei appeared in his dream again!
He did everything he wanted to do today and everything he hadn't done in his dreams!
So when Ye Zhiqiu woke up, he was really speechless because he had been working hard and the situation that had never happened before appeared again.
I entered the space and started to change my underwear and wash it. After washing, I hung it up in the space. After all, the temperature here is always so high and there is sunshine.
Ye Zhiqiu threw a few wolves that ran not far from the flock of sheep back into the distance with the power of space with just a thought!
These bastards are not happy about eating rabbits all day long and even want to destroy other animals in the space. This is something Ye Zhiqiu cannot accept!
Every day he would throw these wolves back. If he got angry one day, he would put them all in the bubbles and stop raising these troublemakers!
Tomorrow we'll have braised pork, and there's plenty of pork, so there's no need to kill. Bringing pork home all day isn't very logical, but pig offal is fine. After all, the pig that pays off the debt only wants the pork.
In order to pay off debts, a slaughterhouse that slaughtered 5,000 pigs a day used the pork to pay off debts, and the pig offal was distributed to cities where it could be transported.
Ye Zhiqiu began to prepare the marinade. He planned to braise a set of pig offal in the space so that he could bring a lunch box home from time to time to provide nutrition for his family.
Of course, Feng Xiaomei also needs to be supplemented with nutrition. After all, this is his wife, and any loss of weight will affect his happy life!
Ye Zhiqiu quickly prepared the brine, put the pig offal in, and used less firewood. He just had to slowly stew it without having to watch the fire himself.
He left the space and returned to the bed. He got out of bed, put on his clothes, took a new toothbrush and towel, and went to the kitchen boiler to add water for washing.
When he arrived in the living room, Wang Fugui was reading a collection of quotations from the emperor, and there was a cup of hot water on the table.
Ye Zhiqiu smiled and asked, "Grandpa, why don't you make some tea?"
Wang Fugui sighed and said, "Grandson, we don't have much tea leaves at home. We have to save some for when guests come. Now that we can't get any tea leaves, grandpa can only drink hot water. Fortunately, the water here is not bitter, otherwise I wouldn't even like to drink water."
"Huh? Now even this crappy thing called High Smash can't be bought?"
