Chu Yue raised her delicate eyebrows, "I didn't do anything."
The corners of Lu Xinghe's lips rose, "Yes, you didn't do anything, but you disturbed me."
After hearing this, Chu Yue turned her head to the other side.
"Okay, I won't look at you anymore."
Lu Xinghe smiled and continued reading.
Lu Xingping and Lu Xingan, who were writing on the ground with their heads lowered, looked at each other. They turned their backs to the brazier in unison, and rustled together, muttering something unknown.
After a while, Xiaozhu also approached with curiosity.
Chu Yue glanced in the direction of the three little heads, but did not step forward to ask what they were talking about. After all, she was not interested in children's topics.
…
When I got up the next day, the snow outside was already up to my ankles. Compared with the heavy snowfall last night, the snow today was lighter.
Chu Yueshen stepped on the snow and walked toward the kitchen.
"Ms. sir, do you really want to go to the county seat today? The snow is so deep that the road can't be seen. Is it unsafe?"
Lu Xinghe took out the shovel from the kitchen, "We are already familiar with the road, don't worry."
"I don't know if the snow will stop today." Yun Cuihe, who was making breakfast, turned to look at Lu Xinghe who was shoveling the snow outside the house, "Xinghe, if it still snows today, you can stay in the county town until later. Come back when the snow melts some."
Lu Xinghe nodded.
"I know it well, mother."
After a while, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard, "Aunt Yun, Xinghe, it's me."
Chu Yue stepped forward and opened the door, and saw Lu Dagui standing at the door with Tiedan on his back, "Brother Dagui is here."
Lu Dagui carried Tiedan straight to the kitchen and then put him down.
"It's really cold today."
Yun Cuihe smiled and stuffed a piece of firewood into the stove, "It will be even colder when the snow melts."
"That's what Auntie said." Lu Dagui said, then he took a broom and followed Lu Xinghe to sweep the snow, "Xinghe, we sold this cart of vegetables today, shall we wait until the snow melts next time?"
Lu Xinghe nodded, "Okay."
Lu Dagui glanced at the shovel in Lu Xinghe's hand, and hurriedly stepped forward to exchange tools with Lu Xinghe.
"I'll shovel the snow, don't hurt your back."
Lu Xinghe pursed his lips and said, "Thank you."
Hearing this thank you, Lu Dagui was a little embarrassed, "Which of us will follow whom? There is no need to say thank you from now on."
The two of them cleared the snow in front of the house all the way to the outside of the yard, and breakfast was also ready.
After eating, before leaving, Chu Yue stuffed a clay pot with a charcoal fire into the mule cart to keep Lu Xinghe warm. There was also an insulating wooden board underneath the pot.
"Ms. sir, when you come back, help me bring a few jars for soaking the radishes, so as not to freeze in the fields."
Lu Xinghe nodded, "Okay."
Seeing that Lu Xinghe had lowered the curtain, Lu Dagui drove the mule cart down the mountain.
After going down to the foot of the mountain, I picked up Lu Shoucheng and headed directly to the county town.
Lu Shoucheng sold a basket of vegetables for nearly two taels of silver last time, and today he brought another basket. Taking advantage of the high price of vegetables, he saved his family's rations and earned some money to support his family.
After all, by next spring, the family will be able to grow food again.
…
Chu Yue and Yun Cuihe were not idle at home. One of them picked up a shovel and the other picked up a broom and cleared the snow in front of the house to the foot of the mountain. This morning, they took advantage of the light snow to shovel some. If it continued to snow If it snows, the snow is easy to clean.
If you don't clean it up and the snow accumulates thickly, it will be more difficult to deal with.
After shoveling the snow, most of the morning had passed. Yun Cuihe went to the old house before it was time to eat. When Chu Yue returned to the yard, four children were rolling snowballs in the yard.
She didn't stop her. Playing is a child's nature. This nature should not be taken away early. Otherwise, you will have regrets when you grow up.
"Don't play for too long. Be careful if you catch a cold. Play for a while and then go inside to warm yourself up by the fire."
Several people nodded in agreement.
Chu Yue just sat down in the main room when she heard a knock on the door outside the courtyard, but she was tired from shoveling the snow just now and didn't want to move now.
"Xingping Xingan, go and see who it is."
"Okay, sister-in-law."
The two of them opened the door and frowned when they saw the visitor, "Sister Shanshan, why did you come to my house again?"
Lu Shanshan had a gentle smile on her face, "What's the matter? Who said I can't come?"
The two brothers Lu Xingping looked at each other, then looked at her, "What are you doing here?"
Lu Shanshan glanced into the yard, "I came to see your sister-in-law. Is she at home?"
Lu Xing'an frowned even more tightly, "What are you doing with our sister-in-law?"
Lu Shanshan looked at him funny, "Isn't your sister-in-law a doctor? Of course I came to see her for medical treatment. I'm married now, is it possible that I can still snatch your eldest brother away?"
Lu Xingping snorted coldly, "You won't have a chance even if you want to steal it. My eldest brother is not at home today."
Lu Shanshan was a little surprised, "Where has your eldest brother gone?"
Lu Xingping's nostrils turned upward, "I won't tell you."
Chu Yue, who heard the sound in the room, came out of the room and looked at Lu Shanshan who had a slightly bulging belly outside the courtyard. She raised her beautiful eyebrows slightly and said, "Why did you come to my house with such a big belly? You didn't get any accidents and it's up to us to turn around." On the body."
Lu Shanshan brushed Lu Xingping and Lu Xingan away and walked into the yard. The two Lu Xingping brothers looked at her belly and did not dare to stop them.
"Ms. Chu, you are also a doctor after all. Doctors are said to be benevolent, so why can't you remember me better?"
"Rather than you being a worry-free person, I wouldn't say that, right? Why are you coming to my house?"
"I'm giving a New Year's gift to my parents today. I heard that your medical skills are good, so I thought of coming to see you."
Chu Yue was slightly surprised, "Are you sick?"
Lu Shanshan touched her nose in embarrassment, "It's not me."
Chu Yue looked at her expression and said, "Is that your man?"
Lu Shanshan pulled Chu Yue into the house with some embarrassment, "Could you please lower your voice? There are several children in the yard."
"Why do you have to cover up your illness?" When she came into the room, Chu Yue looked at Lu Shanshan impatiently, "Can we talk about it now?"
The fact that Lu Shanshan was able to seek medical treatment for her husband meant that the two of them got along well, which was exactly what Chu Yue wanted.
As long as their relationship as husband and wife is good, she will no longer think about her husband.
Lu Shanshan cleared her throat and looked around the house. When she saw no one was approaching the main room, she approached Chu Yue and whispered, "My husband-in-law's matter... doesn't seem to be going well."
Chu Yue instantly felt a rush of energy and blood rushing from his heels to the top of his head, and his toes curled up in embarrassment.
"Wouldn't it be better if you asked your husband-in-law to go to the town to see a doctor about this kind of thing? What are you doing with a girl like me?"
