Small peasant girl

Chapter 620 Celebrating the Lantern Festival
The fifteenth day of the first month, the Lantern Festival.

The Lantern Festival was supposed to be a lively day, but this year's Lantern Festival was much quieter than before.

In the past, children would play around the village with the lanterns they bought, and some even went to the county to watch the lantern festival.

But this year, those children can only stay at home.

Without the company of other children, this year's Su Jinsheng and Su Jinxiao are not alone.

The two of them took two lanterns that Yun Zizai made for them, and they were very happy.

Although Yun Zizai may seem like a rough guy, he has quite skillful hands.

The lanterns made have a very novel appearance.

It made Su Jinxiao show off several times in front of her with a lantern.

She has such a childlike heart, which made Su Jinxia laugh.

But she refused to admit defeat, picked up her own scalpel and started making ice lanterns.

Ice lanterns are not difficult to make, especially in the cold weather.

Su Jinxia used the snow in the yard, turned it into water in a pot, and put it in a round ladle.

When the outer layer is frozen, turn the scoop upside down, trim it a little with a knife, and an ice lantern is ready.

After it was done, Su Jinxia found candles, and a colorful ice lantern lit up.

"Third Miss is really smart, and she can still come up with this method."

Seeing that Su Jinxia put dozens of candles in the corner of the yard in a short while, Yun Zizai praised him very much.

Hearing this, Su Jinxia smiled faintly as a response.

There was nothing to celebrate the Lantern Festival, but Liu still made dumplings and cooked a large table of dishes.

At this time, it was Su Jinxia who had the foresight to cook a large table of dishes. He had stored a lot of ingredients in the cellar before.

The days passed quickly. After the Lantern Festival, the nineteenth day of the first lunar month will be the beginning of spring.

As soon as the beginning of spring came, God was giving me face, and the weather suddenly became clearer.

At the end of the first month, the snow began to melt gradually.

But the weather warmed up too fast, and as soon as the snow melted, the pit and river were filled with snow water.

That situation is even more spectacular than a heavy rainstorm in summer.

"It's all right now, I can't go out again."

Seeing that the snow has finally melted, there is such a deep water outside.

Standing at the door and looking from a distance, you can feel that the world has become an ocean of water.

Seeing that the weather is good today, it is rare for Mrs. Xu to visit their house.

Looking at the scenery outside, Mrs. Xu looked at Mrs. Liu and said with a smile.

When Liu Shi heard this, she said, "Zihang hasn't left yet, has he?"

"Let's go? Where are we going? There's no such thing as a ten-day or eight-day journey, so we can't get out."

In this weather, if the water on the road is to dry completely, it will take ten or eight days.

Originally it was good to leave after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but it has been delayed until now.

"Fortunately, your family prepared a lot of food years ago, or else you would be like our villagers now, eating miscellaneous grains and pickles all day long."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Xu suddenly changed the subject, "Didn't you see that many people in our village are barefoot and their trouser legs are rolled up, and they go to the town to buy salt and white flour."

"Do you still have salt and white flour at home?"

Hearing what Xu said suddenly, Liu thought she was going to borrow money, so she asked.

But who knew that Mrs. Xu waved her hand and said, "Our family prepared a lot before the end of February. But I guess some people from your old Su family will come to ask for food soon."

After Xu's words, within two days, the old Su's family really came.

However, the people who came were old man Su and Pang Shi. They didn't ask for food when they came, they just waited for the meal to come.
