I was the best old lady in ancient times

Chapter 101 It's Snowing

"Actually, it's a good thing that grandma has such a temper."

Aunt Tan smiled, and helped Ning Pengpeng pour a glass of warm water and put it beside her.

"Good thing?"

Ning Pengpeng took a sip from the cup and looked at Aunt Tan.

"Yeah, at least what's going on with her is on her face, and the old lady can tell what she's thinking at a glance!"

Aunt Tan nodded, thinking back to her days in the Liu Mansion.

Those wives and aunts are intriguing, how can they put their emotions on their faces so straightforwardly like Liu Shi?

Even if she didn't stay by Madam and Aunt's side to serve, but in the kitchen, she had to be implicated several times.

Several times, Aunt Tan felt that she was destined to die. Unexpectedly, she stumbled and barely survived in the Liu Mansion. She originally thought that sooner or later, she would die in the conspiracies of the Liu Mansion.

Unexpectedly, the Liu Mansion would be ruined, and his family was actually bought back by a farmer.

Ning Pengpeng just thought about it for a while, and then she knew that Aunt Tan might have remembered about the family in front of her!

Watching TV and reading novels in modern times, the rich and noble families in the dramas have many concubines and many right and wrong.

Thinking about it this way, although Liu Shi has some minor problems, they are not so annoying.

It's just less obnoxious, though, not less obnoxious.

Liu Shi came back overnight, Ning Youfu was a little surprised.

"Why don't you stay at home with your bridesmaid?"

Now that the fourth child is married, there are only two people in the new house, the mother and the younger sister. As the eldest daughter-in-law, it is rare for Liu to go back, so naturally he must be filial.

"I'm afraid that if you open the door tomorrow morning, no one will cook for you!"

After Mrs. Liu got off the bullock cart, she pulled Ning Youfu and said coquettishly.

After finishing speaking, he turned around and wanted Liu Hu to come in for a glass of water before leaving, but unexpectedly, Liu Hu couldn't help shivering when Liu Shi acted like a baby to the uncle, waved his whip, and turned back to the village.

"Hey, why did you just leave? I still have something to tell you after I ask you, let him go back and tell mother!"

Liu Shi stomped her feet and said angrily.

"Asked me what?"

Ning Youfu waved his hand to let Liu Shi go into the yard and say, it's so late, it's too cold to stand outside.

As soon as Liu Shi walked in, Ning Youfu quickly fastened the gate of the yard, and then yawned.

"Mother asked if we should go home for the Chinese New Year this year?"

When Mrs. Liu returned to the house, she didn't have time to wash up, so she said directly to Ning Youfu.

Ning Youfu was slightly surprised, then nodded and replied.

"We have all lived at the home of our father-in-law and mother-in-law these years, and we should go back this year to offer incense sticks to our ancestors!"

From Ning Youfu's point of view, the reason why his mother's business can do so well is probably because of the blessing of the ancestors of the Ning family.

"That's fine. When Liu Hu delivers the things tomorrow, let him go back and tell mother."

Early the next morning, Ning Pengpeng woke up from the cold.

He put on his clothes and stood up, opened the window halfway, and saw countless snowflakes falling from the sky.

"It's actually snowing!"

Ning Pengpeng stretched out her hand to pick it up, and snowflakes like goose feathers fell on her palm.

When it first fell, you could still see the appearance of the snowflakes clearly, but within a few seconds, the snowflakes were melted into a drop of water by the heat from Ning Pengpeng's palm.

"Old lady, you can't open the window, lest you catch the cold wind!"

Aunt Tan heard the noise in Ning Pengpeng's room, knocked on the door and came in, and saw Ning Pengpeng standing by the window blowing air, she quickly took a thick coat and wrapped it around Ning Pengpeng's body.

"Look at me, I forgot to tell you something important! Aunt Tan, there is a fire pit in this room.

Just burn firewood and go in, and the whole house will be warm. "

Aunt Tan was slightly surprised when she heard Ning Pengpeng's words.

"Fire pit?"

Ning Pengpeng nodded, put on his clothes, wrapped them into a ball, and took Aunt Tan out, pointing to the place where the fire was burning.

"When it's cold in the future, just light a fire here."

Aunt Tan is a cook, even if she doesn't know what a fire pit is, but now that there is no chimney in the place where the fire is burned, she understands after a little thought!

"What a clever idea, who came up with this idea? It's amazing to have such an ingenious idea. I'm going to grab firewood and burn it here."

After finishing speaking, Aunt Tan hurriedly went to the kitchen to bring firewood.

Looking at Aunt Tan's back and her invisible flattery, Ning Pengpeng was very happy.

When it comes to snowy days, it is natural to eat hot pot.

After Ning Pengpeng waited for Aunt Tan to light up the heated kang, she called her to the kitchen and instructed Aunt Tan how to make the hot pot base.

Most of the people here can't stand the spicy food.

Therefore, Ning Pengpeng didn't put a lot of peppers!
"Mother, fortunately, I heard you say that it was going to snow a few days ago, so I asked the people in the village to buy two more carts of straw to cover those pepper seedlings!

Otherwise, with the snow today, the pepper seedlings will be frozen to death. "

Ning Pengpeng and Aunt Tan were choking, when Ning's second child rushed in and shouted at Ning Pengpeng.

However, in the middle of the yard, still a long way from the kitchen, an emergency brake came and he covered his nose.

"Mom, are you making this hot pot again?"

Ning Pengpeng took the opportunity to run out of the kitchen and glared at Ning Er Er.

"What's wrong, you don't want to eat?"

Ning Laoer recalled the hot pot meal he had before, and couldn't help swallowing.

"eat."

Although spicy, but enjoyable!
"These days, you have to take care of those pepper seedlings."

Because I planted it too late, when the peppers grow to two inches high, the weather will be cold!

Therefore, Ning Pengpeng thought of a way to ask Ning Laoer to chop the bamboo back, and then split it into two millimeters thick, one centimeter wide, and one meter long bamboo strands.

Then insert the two ends of the bamboo wire on both sides of the ridge where the chili seedlings are planted to form an arch, and cover it with a thin layer of straw at night to form a simple shack.

The main reason is to prevent the chilly seedlings from being frozen to death by frost at night after the weather is cold.

Basically during the day, they are always opened to allow the pepper seedlings to receive light.

A few days ago, Ning Pengpeng saw that the weather was getting worse and worse, so he said to Ning's second child that if it snowed, it could not be covered with such a thin layer of straw, it had to be covered tightly.

Unexpectedly, Second Ning listened to it!
Without further ado, he asked the people in the village, collected two carts of straw, and covered the few rows of pepper seedlings on the wasteland in Ning Pengpeng's backyard thickly.

It snowed last night, today Ning Er Er secretly opened a small gap and looked inside, the pepper seedlings were full of energy and showed no sign of being frozen.

"Got it, mother."

Ning Laoer nodded and agreed wholeheartedly.

"After dinner, go talk to the people in the village, and see if anyone is willing to use straw to make straw curtains, I will take care of it for the church."

Ning Pengpeng walked to the backyard, looked at the solid ground covered by Ning's second son, thought for a while, then turned to talk to Ning's second son.
