"Especially when the door is closed, the whole room feels warm. It's much warmer than other rooms without an ondol!"
Yang Ruoqing smiled when she heard Cao Bamei praising the warm kang.
"By the way, Qing'er, why don't you set up a heated kang in your own house and the children's house?" Cao Bamei asked again.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Our bodies are not afraid of cold. Tang Yazi is like a stove. I am not cold at all."
"As for the children, they practice boxing and play every day without stopping. They are still sweating and there is no need for a heated ondol."
"Besides, the heated kang is good, but it's not appropriate to stay on it all day long. It's like being baked all the time. You have to go out for a walk, open the windows for ventilation, eat more fruits and drink more tea, otherwise It’s also easy to get angry.”
Cao Bamei nodded repeatedly, "Well, thank you for reminding me, I will tell the three of them."
Thinking of something, Cao Bamei waved to Xiaojie.
"Xiaojie, come here, I want to ask you something." Cao Bamei said.
Xiaojie then came to the warm bucket and said, "Girl, what's going on?"
Cao Bamei said: "What, after you marry into the Zhang family, you will live with the Zhang family's parents, right?"
Xiaojie nodded: "Yes, Zhang Ban is the only son in the Zhang family. He has no brothers or sisters. His family has a house and a yard in the town. We must live together!"
Cao Bamei said: "The Zhang family opens a shop in the town to sell various farm tools, so the conditions should be good. Zhang Ban also earns income by sitting in the school."
"My family also has a house in the town. When you got married, you didn't have any sisters-in-law to compete with you for favor. Your parents-in-law just love you. I really want to let you go. As long as you can take care of the housework, you will definitely live a comfortable life after marriage."
Xiaojie smiled shyly, "Don't worry, aunt, I will definitely take care of the housework and respect my parents-in-law."
…
In the afternoon, the snow was still falling, and the yard paths that had been shoveled in the morning were soon covered with snow again.
In the warehouse, Luo Fengtang and Yang Huazhong were still busy making tomorrow's 'sleigh'.
I originally thought that Blacksmith Luo would not be able to come back, but he actually came back.
Of course, by the time he got home, he was completely white-headed.
His eyebrows and beard were all white, he wore a bamboo hat on his head, and the bamboo hat on his body was also covered with snow. When he took off his coir raincoat and bamboo hat, the clothes inside were all wet.
"Oh my God, it's snowing so hard. Why don't you come back? There's not a dry patch on your body. I'm really worried that you'll get sick later!"
Wang Cuilian helped him clean up and complained about him, but her words were filled with concern and worry.
Blacksmith Luo chuckled and said: "It's okay, she won't be sick. When the Sun family marries their daughter, I promised Uncle Sun that I must come back for a banquet."
Wang Cuilian said: "The children guessed that you wouldn't be able to come back in time, so they all helped you to say hello to Uncle Sun. They heard about Da'e and they all understood."
"Besides, your name is blacksmith, but your bones are not really made of iron!"
"Hurry up and put on these dry clothes, and then soak your feet in hot water. I'll make you some ginger soup to get rid of the cold!" Wang Cuilian said again.
Blacksmith Luo said: "Don't bother me. I'll just drink a bowl of hot tea. Tang Yazi and Laosan are building a sled? I'll help them wrap the iron sheet!"
Wang Cuilian raised her hand and pressed Blacksmith Luo's shoulder: "Tang Yazi told you not to rush to help, but to warm up first!"
"I'm going to make some ginger soup for you right now, and you can soak your feet for me. I won't see you when I get back home later, and I'm not done with you anymore!"
She glared at him as a warning, then turned and left quickly.
Watching her leave, Blacksmith Luo couldn't help but grin, feeling happy in his heart.
It feels so good to have a woman in pain at home. There are children and grandchildren, and the whole family is bustling. No matter how heavy the wind and snow are, the thought of the whole family will make them have the strength to rush home!
After changing clothes and drinking ginger soup, Blacksmith Luo felt much warmer. He quickly came to the warehouse and joined Luo Fengtang and Yang Huazhong...
In the evening, Dajie came over.
"Sister, my mother sent me over to tell you that you should stop cooking at night and come to my house to eat."
"My mother, Huang Mao, and several aunties from Sunjiagou are all cooking. When I came over just now, I had already gone to say hello to my aunt, and my aunt and the others also came over at night."
Yang Ruoqing nodded readily: "Okay, I'll be there later."
"Oh, by the way, Dajie, how many people are coming from Sunjiagou? Are there people from your uncle's house?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.
Dajie's great-grandfather is Yang Ruoqing's Dagagong, and he is also Lao Suntou's cousin.
Of course, he is Cui'er's grandfather...
The main reason why Yang Ruoqing asked these questions was to know if Cui'er and her daughter had come over...
"Everyone who can come is here. Grandpa didn't come, but uncle and aunt came with cousin Cui'er and brought a lot of mountain products..."
Sure enough, it came.
Yang Ruoqing curled her lips.
Ever since it happened that Cui'er wanted to hook up with Da'an and put medicine in Da'an's tea, Yang Huazhong's family almost fell out with Cui'er's family and stopped moving.
Even when Dagagong celebrated his birthday later, Sun and Yang Huazhong, the niece and nephew-in-law, did not go around. They just asked the eldest Sun to bring a gift.
But the Sun family and Cui'er family still move around, because of Old Sun's head...
But during the holidays, both sides sent Xiaojie's father and Cui'er's father as representatives to visit each other, and Da Gagong never came to Changping Village again.
This time when Xiaojie was getting married, Cui'er's family of three went out to have a banquet with other relatives from the family. Due to etiquette, they couldn't refuse, so they had no choice but to accept them.
But Yang Ruoqing has a good impression of Cui'er, so she should keep a distance from that kind of scheming girl. Anyway, they will stay at Sun's house when they come, and they will go back after the banquet, which will not exceed three days.
"Sister, do you have anything else to tell me?" Dajie's voice brought Yang Ruoqing back from her thoughts.
Only then did she realize that she was distracted.
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, just go about your business!" Yang Ruoqing said quickly.
Dajie nodded, turned and left.
At night, everyone came to Sun's house for dinner.
Good guys, there are three tables for men, two tables for women, and there is also a table for children put together.
It's almost time to get married now and get a wife. It's true that you are poor in the downtown area and no one cares about you, but you are rich in the mountains and have distant relatives.
In Yang Ruoqing's distant memory, when she was a child, her three siblings followed their parents back to Sunjiagou to visit relatives. She had never seen so many relatives in the Sun family.
Nowadays, their family, the Sun family, is getting better and better. The Sun family has more and more relatives, and they are moving around more and more diligently...
Someone touched her elbow lightly. Yang Ruoqing looked and saw Xiaoduo sitting next to her.
"Look, sister, Cui'er is here." Xiaoduo said in a low voice.
Yang Ruoqing looked in the direction indicated by Xiaoduo, and sure enough she saw a young woman in plain clothes coming behind Da Sun and Cui'er.
The black hair is set against the skin as white as snow. Under the eyebrow-length bangs, a soft face with low eyebrows is really like a small white flower in the wind.
