Chapter 140 The First Snow
early morning.

Large flakes of snow fell from the dark sky.

In an instant, mountains, rivers, fields, and villages were all shrouded in white snow.

"Crench!"

Fat Miao'er pushed open the door, and seeing this scene, joy flashed in his eyes.

Immediately ran to the yard, raised his fleshy little hands, and caught the snowflakes.

"Big brother, second brother, third brother, sister, come out, it's snowing!"

Fat Meow jumped up and down and cheered.

She likes snow best.

One of her favorite things to do when she was a cat was to run in the snow.

Even if she went to the south with the shit shovel officer, she would return to the north once every winter.

"Come out!" Fat Miao'er shouted loudly.

Several people came out of the house when they heard the commotion.

The sky was full of snow.

It's cool and icy.

Everyone couldn't help shivering.

"It's really snowing..."

Liu Ye'er murmured softly, and quickly turned back to the house, holding a hat and scarf made of Fat Miao'er's fox fur.

"Take it quickly, don't catch a cold!"

Liu Ye'er walked quickly to Fat Miao'er, and put the hat and scarf on her.

Looking at the falling snow in the sky.

Liu Ye'er's thoughts went back to last winter, when they were still in the ruined temple, what they were most afraid of was snow, not only the weather was cold, but also begging became extremely difficult.

It's not like now, living in a warm house, with three meals a day full of oil and water, and pocket money.

Thinking of this, Liu Ye'er's eyes couldn't help getting moist.

"What's wrong, Fourth Sister?" Fat Miao'er looked at Liu Ye'er suspiciously.

"fine!"

Fat Miao'er's words brought back Liu Ye'er's thoughts, and she smiled sweetly: "Snowflakes fell into my eyes."

"Oh~" Fat Miao'er smiled and asked, "Is it cool?"

"Not cold!" Liu Ye'er said softly, not only did she not feel cold, but also felt very warm.

Warmer than any winter.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!"

At this time, there was a knock on the courtyard door of Fat Miao'er's house.

"coming!"

Fat Miaoer responded and hurried to the door.

"Slow down, be careful." Liu Ye'er followed behind and warned.

Opening the courtyard door, Fat Miao'er said crisply: "Grandma Zhang, Aunt Zhang."

The people who came were none other than Mrs. Zhang and her eldest daughter-in-law, each holding a big basin in their hands.

Since the charcoal-burning business got on the right track, the Zhang family can be said to be making money every day, and their gratitude to Fat Miao'er and the others is beyond words.

So Mrs. Zhang came to Fat Miao'er's house to visit when she had nothing to do, helped them with work, and became a frequent visitor to their house.

"Please come in!" Fat Miao'er warmly greeted the two of them to enter the room.

Inside the hall.

The two put the small basin on the table and rubbed their red and frozen hands.

Liu Ye'er quickly poured two cups of hot water for the two.

"Grandma Zhang, Aunt Zhang, drink some hot water to warm up." Liu Ye'er said warmly.

"Thank you Ye'er, you are such a caring person, whoever marries you will be blessed in the future!"

Mrs. Zhang joked that she and Liu Ye'er had made cotton padded clothes and quilts for a month, and she was quite familiar with them. She liked Liu Ye'er's gentle and gentle temperament very much, and treated her as her own granddaughter.

"Grandma Zhang, stop praising me."

A blush climbed up to Liu Ye'er's ears, she lowered her head in embarrassment.

"I'm telling the truth. Every little girl in our village counts as one. No one can compare to you in terms of virtuousness."

The old lady Zhang chuckled, took two sips of water, turned around and opened the two pots she brought.

One of the pots contained sauerkraut, a total of seven or eight pieces, and the other pot contained bean paste.

"This sauerkraut is pickled at home. It's just arrived today. I'll grab some for you to taste. If it's delicious, I'll get it for you."

"And this bean paste..."

"Isn't it the first snow last night? Every household is wrapped with sticky bean buns. I don't think you know it, so bring some cooked bean paste."

"You guys also make some, take advantage of the cold weather, and eat it whenever you want." Mrs. Zhang explained everything in detail.

With a kind and loving appearance, he really looks like his elders.

"Thank you Grandma Zhang!" Liu Ye'er quickly thanked her, her crisp voice hoarse.

She is a little beggar and has no elders to teach her anything.

Mrs. Zhang's hard work made her feel warm.

Even if she knew, it was because several people could bring benefits to the Zhang family.

"Grandma Zhang doesn't say anything, we really don't know how to pack it, and I have to ask Grandma Zhang and Aunt Zhang to teach me."

Liu Ye'er has steamed steamed buns, steamed buns, and made dumplings.

It’s just that the sticky bean buns haven’t been wrapped.

"What's the trouble!" Mrs. Zhang sneered: "If it weren't for the lack of yellow rice noodles at home, I would wrap them up and bring them to you."

Say hello.

Mrs. Zhang followed Liu Ye'er to the kitchen.

Under her command, Liu Ye'er mixed sticky rice flour and corn flour one by one, added appropriate amount of warm water, and mixed evenly with chopsticks while pouring, until the batter was sticky and did not stick to hands. Cover the pit head and wait for an hour to ferment.

Taking advantage of the baking time, several people discussed how to eat sauerkraut, and finally decided to have pork stewed sauerkraut, and Li Xiaodao went to the town to buy some pork belly and bone sticks.

An hour later.

The meat has been bought, and the noodles are ready.

Mrs. Zhang divided the big dough into even small doughs, rolled the small dough into round cakes, put a small spoonful of bean paste in it, pushed it up slowly with the mouth of a tiger until it closed, pinched the mouth tightly, and placed it on the curtain with the mouth facing down.

Fat Miao'er and Liu Ye'er wrapped up with Mrs. Zhang.

Luo Pan and Wei Shu shredded sauerkraut and stewed pork belly and big bones bought by Li Xiaodao.

Sauerkraut tastes better the longer it is stewed. This is what Mrs. Zhang told a few people.

You can also steam sticky bean buns on top, which kills two birds with one stone and does not waste firewood.

Just when several people were busy working, the door of Fat Miao'er's house was knocked again.

Li Xiaodao, who was sweeping snow in the yard, opened the door, and it was none other than Fat Miao'er's little friend—Li Hongzao.

"Is Fat Miao'er at home?" Li Hongzao looked at Li Xiaodao and asked.

"exist."

Li Xiaodao led Li Hongzao into the hall.

"Red Date, why are you here?"

Seeing Li Hongzao, Fat Miaoer asked curiously.

"The snow outside has stopped, I'll come to you to build a snowman together."

"Make a snowman?"

After hearing Li Hongzao's words, Fat Miao'er's eyes lit up, she put down the sticky bean bag in her hand, and said to Liu Ye'er, "Sister, I don't want to make a sticky bean bag anymore, I want to make a snowman with Hongzao."

Building a snowman is much more fun than making a sticky bean bag.

"Okay, put on your hat, scarf and gloves, and don't forget to come back for dinner." Liu Ye'er instructed softly.

"Ok!"

In response, Fat Miao'er was fully dressed, pulled Li Hongzao out of the house quickly, and ran towards the threshing ground.

The place is open and flat, perfect for making snowmen.
