Lu Qingran walked downstairs and came out of the yard to find something falling from the sky! Lu Qingran turned her palms upward, and a snowflake fell in the middle of her palms!
"Yan Xiu! Yan Xiu, it's snowing!"
Lu Qingran was jumping happily in the courtyard, like a happy bird, enjoying the joy brought by the snowflakes!
"Snowing?" Yan Xiu immediately went downstairs.
"It has never snowed in my hometown! My grandfather also said that he has never seen snow! This weather is so strange!"
Yan Xiu stretched out his hand to pick up a few snowflakes and inspected them. The cold touch in his palms confirmed to him that it was really snowing!
"Stop playing! Let's go to the second grandpa's house and the third grandpa's house to see if they have thick clothes and quilts! The weather is very weird, I'm afraid it will get colder and colder!"
Yan Xiu called Lu Qingran, who was still playing with snowflakes, to stop, and the two of them searched one room at a time.
Lu Qingran walked into a room that looked like a wedding room. Everything in it was new. It should be a new room for wedding!
The house next to the wedding room is full of quilts, pots, pans and other things!
"Yan Xiu! Yan Xiu! Come here!"
A few minutes later, Yan Xiu ran over from another house and asked in a slightly breathy voice:
"What's wrong?"
Lu Qingran: "There are so many new quilts here!"
Yan Xiu was stunned when he saw the room full of things used by newcomers.
"This should be my cousin's dowry! My cousin just got married before the end of the world! My mother came back for a wedding banquet at that time. This new house is my cousin's room. It is customary here that a married woman's room must be decorated before the wedding. ."
"It is also a custom here to give wedding quilts to others! These quilts are given by close relatives when they come to have wedding banquets! My cousin is marrying far away, so she did not bring these quilts with her!"
"Then let's find something else!"
There should be a lot of quilts, but it’s better not to touch other people’s dowries! Lu Qingran wanted to pull Yan Xiu away, but found that he couldn't pull Yan Xiu away after several pulls.
"No need! Just use these! There are so many, it doesn't matter how many we take. My cousin is married far away. Even if she is alive, it will be difficult for her to come back here! What's more, there are so many quilts that she can't use up! Give us an emergency She won’t say anything!”
After Yan Xiu finished speaking, he entered the room and took out four bags containing quilts! Lu Qingran also immediately took two bags.
Yan Xiu went to his cousin's closet again and took out a few coats and some thick base layers!
"These will suit you!"
Yan Xiu briefly compared Lu Qingran from a distance and said with a smile.
Yan Xiu's smile was like a ray of sunshine in winter, penetrating through the clouds and shining into Lu Qingran's heart, making her feel extremely warm.
A faint blush appeared on Lu Qingran's cheeks. It was snowing and cold, but Lu Qingran felt extremely warm at this time!
"It's the twentieth of the twelfth lunar month! The New Year is not far away! Is there anything Qingran wants to eat?"
After preparing all the things to keep out the cold, the two of them took some time to relax! The snow is getting heavier and heavier! Except for occasionally going out to the yard to clear snow, the two of them almost never go out.
"I want to eat glutinous rice cake!"
Glutinous rice cake was the only thing she could eat during the Chinese New Year in the orphanage! Those glutinous rice cakes are all gifts from caring people!
When she grew up, she realized that those glutinous rice cakes were New Year's gifts from various units. They didn't want to eat them, so they gave them to the orphanage.
"Ciba? Made of glutinous rice?"
Yan Xiu thought Lu Qingran would want to eat some delicious food, but he didn't expect it to be glutinous rice cake!
"Yes! Made of glutinous rice!" Lu Qingran nodded.
Yan Xiu: "Okay! I remember there is some glutinous rice in the granary! But I~ can't make it!"
"I'll do it again! I'll do it again!"
After living on campus, she never went back to the orphanage. All her classmates went home during the Chinese New Year. She was often alone in the school. When she felt uncomfortable, she wanted to eat glutinous rice cakes. Later, she studied online by herself!
"Okay! I'll get the glutinous rice!"
Lu Qingran: "I see there are some sesame seeds and peanuts there, let's use some to make stuffing!"
"Okay!" Yan Xiu nodded!
Lu Qingran went into the kitchen and took out a big basin, ready to soak the glutinous rice! To make glutinous rice cake, the glutinous rice must be soaked overnight, otherwise it will not be soft and glutinous!
After soaking the glutinous rice, Lu Qingran ran to clean the mortar left by the old man. There is no choice but to use the ancient method to pound glutinous rice into glutinous rice cakes.
Lu Qingran fried the sesame seeds and peanuts again, broke the peanuts into pieces, and mixed them with the sugar! Simple sesame peanut filling is ready!
Lu Qingran and the two of them, who were happily preparing New Year's goods, didn't know that danger was approaching them step by step.
A few hundred meters away from them, on the roof of the only high-rise building in the town, a man was looking around with a telescope.
When he saw smoke rising from where Lu Qingran and the two were, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face! After confirming again and again that everything is correct, run down!
"Brother! Big brother! Big discovery! There is someone living in the six o'clock direction!"
"Are you sure?" The middle-aged man called Big Brother was wiping the gun in his hand!
"I'm sure, there's smoke there. It doesn't look like a fire. Someone should be cooking or heating!"
Middle-aged man: "It's getting dark! It's not a good time to go out and take risks! Have a good sleep tonight! Go do something big tomorrow!"
"That's right! Let me keep an eye on that old Liu! If you dare to trick me into coming to this inhospitable place... don't let him die easily!!"
"yes, Sir!"
Lu Qingran, who looked excited, didn't know the danger was coming, and kept telling Yan Xiu, who had never eaten glutinous rice cakes, all kinds of delicious glutinous rice cakes!
"We will dry some in the yard tomorrow. The glutinous rice cakes will cool down, harden, and then be grilled over the charcoal fire to eat. It tastes so good~"
As she said this, Lu Qingran's mouth suddenly started to overflow with saliva! It made Yan Xiu laugh!
The next day! As soon as it gets light, Lu Qingran steams it! Then he took the confused Yan Xiu and took the glutinous rice to a mortar while it was still hot.
After pounding the glutinous rice, Lu Qingran made glutinous rice cakes in the yard, while Yan Xiu went up to the second floor to cook breakfast.
"Brother, this is the place! Hmm~ It smells so delicious!"
"Third brother, open the door!" the middle-aged man said to another man in his thirties wearing a black hat.
The man with the black hat stepped forward, his hand on the doorknob. Two seconds later, there was a "pop!" The door lock opens.
"Bang!!"
The middle-aged man kicked hard and the door was kicked open.
"What are you doing? Breaking into a house without permission? Get out!"
Lu Qingran turned around suddenly and saw four men and one woman coming in from the door! He scolded sternly.
"Yo yo~ Big brother has a beautiful girl!!"
The man who entered the door first ignored Lu Qingran's scolding and whistled at Lu Qingran!
"What are you doing?"
Yan Xiu heard the sound and jumped down from the second floor, pulling Lu Qingran behind him.
"Hey~ I have a little brother too~ Big brother! I like this little brother so much~"
The only girl among the group was playing with the dagger in her hand, and her voice was coquettish and she said coquettishly to the middle-aged man!
Middle-aged man: "Did you hear that? Don't break your face later. Do you know that thing? Save it for Jiaojiao to play with!"
"Haha~ It's better for the eldest brother to be kind to others..."
