The roof is covered with thick snow, and the smoke is rising from the chimney. When people who have traveled long distances from afar see this scene, they feel that their legs that have been completely numb as if they have been filled with lead seem to have regained consciousness.
"There is someone in front!" The person walking in the front shouted hoarsely: "Everyone work harder, we can find a place to rest now!"
The people behind raised their heads and looked forward in a daze. Seeing that houses really appeared under the thick snow cover, and even the smoke representing human habitation, their numb eyes gradually became brighter.
Finally, I finally saw the people! This means that they can find a warm and sheltered place to rest for a while. If they are lucky, maybe the owner will be willing to give them some hot water to warm their bodies.
With hope, there is motivation. A group of people walked forward supporting each other, and suddenly heard the barking of dogs in front of them. Two majestic big dogs stood at the door of the house in front and roared at them in demonstration.
The owner was alarmed, a man wrapped in a thick military coat and a fur hat came out of the house, two big dogs immediately approached him affectionately, the man slapped his head one by one and forced him to Pushed aside: "Go! Don't block the way here! Go back to the den! Get back covered in mud and your flesh will be broken!"
The two big dogs yelled at their master in displeasure, and ran back with their big tails flicking.
"There's a guest!" The man straightened the leather hat on his head with one hand, showing a bold smile: "Sit in the room, it's warm!"
Seeing that the host did not show any disgust towards them, the visitor was also relieved, and hurriedly arranged for the old man and the child to enter the house, and said to the host with a grateful face: "Thank you so much! If I don't meet him again, I will I really don't know what to do!"
"Stop talking nonsense, get in the house!" The bold host pulled everyone in, and the house, which was originally not that big, was filled with these people: "Just make do with it first." Warm and warm, I'll pour hot water for you!"
After all the dozen or so people started to drink a bowl of hot water slowly, the busy master stopped: "Look at you, are you from out of town?"
"Yes, we are from the north." The man in the lead quickly drank the hot water in two or three gulps, feeling a stream of heat flowing down his throat to his limbs and bones, and his whole body became looser: "No way, live We can't go on! The snow is too heavy, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the livestock are freezing to death. We can't go on, so we have no choice but to grit our teeth and go south. Many brothers who came out together were separated when they encountered heavy snow on the road , I don¡¯t know where they are.¡± Whether they are still alive or not, he did not say the latter words in silence.
A woman in the crowd couldn't help sobbing softly.
With such a heavy topic, the host's face couldn't help showing sadness: "This is a ghostly year! You should have come here earlier. Last year was so cold and you haven't learned a lesson? You should move in before the cold winter!"
"Isn't this reluctant to part with our cattle and sheep grassland?" The man sighed, his face full of sorrow: "We are all used to the nomadic life, and it is easy to move inland. What do we live on when we come here?"
"So it's not okay to block the news after the end of the world!" The master slapped his thigh: "It's okay if you don't say anything else, right? There are a lot of jobs in the safe zone, and it's time to employ people. As long as you work hard, No matter how you can find a way to survive!"
Hearing his detailed introduction of the situation in the safe zone, the man suddenly covered his face with his hands and began to cry: "If I had known life would be easier here, I would have brought my family here! It wouldn't be That old man, who is quite old and has that kind of cancer, was afraid of dragging us down, so he jumped into the river while I wasn't paying attention! It's so cold! My whole body was frozen in the river!"
The crowd was crying louder and louder. This journey was difficult. Some people lost relatives and friends. This time he was aroused, and the whole room was filled with crying.
The host didn't know what to say, so he got up and fiddled with the hearth, and took out a few roasted sweet potatoes: "I didn't expect someone to come today, so I didn't bury a few more, so you can eat them separately! There will be patrols coming over from the safe area later, and you will go with them when the time comes, and the safe area will arrange for you, don't worry! Now that you're here, the days ahead will be easier!"
Before dark, the last patrol team in the safety zone came here, and the owner of the house stuck out his head and said hello to them: "I have a dozen brothers and sisters who came from the grassland, you take them back Bar!"
The men on the patrol were soon on skisWhen the people who heard the news rushed over, there was not a single fish scale left.
In just a few days, stewed chicken, couscous, and braised pork These are all prepared in advance, and when the guests come, just heat them on the stove and eat them, which is convenient and trouble-free Hey, it's the turn of the pig's trotters to freeze again today.
"My aunt's newly made tofu, packed a lot and brought back." Qin Sheng took out the tofu from the basket. The freshly made tofu was still warm, but after walking out for a while, it turned into frozen tofu. : "There are also sliced ??cakes, my sister-in-law's parents made them, and they said they were sweet for us during the Chinese New Year!"
This is an absolute local specialty. I heard from Zhang Caiyun that in the past two years, due to the bad year, the ingredients were not available. Her parents haven¡¯t made cakes for a long time.
