Jiang Tian got up early that morning. Without him, it was too hot inside the house. This was the first time he woke up from the heat in winter.
While he was washing up, his grandfather was already cooking in the kitchen.
"Why did you get up so early?" Grandpa asked.
"It's too hot. I wonder if we should turn off the stove?" Jiang Tian asked.
Grandpa's voice came from the kitchen, "What I also feel is that the stove is burning too hot and the heat is too high. The room is extremely hot. The humidifier you bought has been running all day, and it still feels like the room is still hot. It¡¯s very hard, this kind of environment is not very good, it will have an impact on the body, so I specially cooked some millet porridge and will drink more later.¡±
After Jiang Tian washed up, he went to look at the stove. There was still a little coal in it. He didn't add any more. He just waited until it was burned out. After using it for a whole winter, it was pretty good.
"Speaking of which, it's spring. It's early this year." Jiang Tian said.
"Yeah, it's spring before I know it. Time flies too fast. I don't even feel it yet. It's here in the blink of an eye. However, this year I always feel that something is not quite right, as if something is missing. "Grandpa was very confused. After thinking about it, he didn't know where it was missing.
Jiang Tian thought for a while, "I know, it's missing Xue Xue!"
"Yes!" Grandpa walked out of the kitchen and looked up, as if he wanted to look at the sky through the plastic shed.
"It's also strange. In previous years, it snowed heavily during the Chinese New Year. I remember one time it snowed very heavily. The radio even reported that it was a heavy snowfall that only happens once in fifty years. At that time, the snowflakes were just like goose feathers. The snow drifted down, and the ground was soon covered with a thick layer. The yards and roofs of every house were covered with snow, making it impossible to go out.
Even if you want to go out, you have to go deep and shallow. Children will not see anyone when they go out. Every household is sitting around the stove at home, eating sweets and drinking hot water. That's pretty good. "
Grandpa¡¯s words are full of nostalgia. Without snow this winter, it¡¯s like eating noodles without garlic. It¡¯s edible, but the taste is not enough.
"Besides, snow is also very beneficial. It falls on the crops and freezes the bugs to death. Otherwise, the bugs will not die. When the weather warms up, it will have a serious impact on the crops. It will be very serious." There is a probability of a reduction in production. Now we are not allowed to burn corn stalks, and those insects cannot die. No crops can stand being buried in the ground for such a long time."
Grandpa took out his dry cigarettes, rolled one and smoked it, with a worried expression on his face. There is a saying that goes well: in the winter, you will have a three-layer wheat quilt, and you will sleep with a steamed bun on your pillow next year. Otherwise, why would there be a saying that auspicious snow heralds a good harvest? head.
This snow is particularly important in winter. The next snow is not only good for crops, but also can bring down the pollutants in the air, making the air quality better.
Thinking about it now, it seems like there won¡¯t be any snow this winter.
Jiang Tian nodded, "Yes, it's nice to have snow."
For Jiang Tian, ??when it snows heavily, it¡¯s more about playing. When it snows, he goes out with a few friends to have snowball fights and build snowmen. It¡¯s particularly interesting. The snowmen are piled big, using carrots as noses, and plastic The bucket is placed on the head as a hat, and a broom is inserted as the snowman's hands.
Some children will take out unused scarves at home and put them on the snowman, which looks very nice.
Especially when it snows, it often lasts for several days, and then the snow becomes colder. During the days when the snow melts, the temperature will drop sharply. The snowman does not have to worry about melting until then. It was still there when I was fifteen.
"It's really strange. It doesn't snow in the winter, so something is missing." Jiang Tian said, looking at the plastic shed.
It¡¯s already the beginning of spring, and there¡¯s no sign of snow in the weather forecast. It seems like this year is over.
Grandpa took a puff of dry cigarette, blew out the smoke ring, nodded and said: "If it doesn't snow, you can light a fire when you reclaim those wastelands. As long as you keep an eye on it, there won't be any problems, otherwise there will be no problems in those wastelands." There are so many bugs, and they have been very hungry this winter. After you sow the seeds, all the seeds have become their food."
"Okay, I understand." Jiang Tian said.
Reclaiming wasteland is simple. He is the village chief himself. He only needs to report it in the documents, and then pay attention to setting aside some land for the villagers. After all, if they want to plant it, they won't be able to find it. The land is planted.
Thinking now??, in fact, I still have a lot of things to do in this new year. The buildings I designed in the village have not been completed yet. There is also the place of Miaojia'ao, which is the top priority, absolutely. Can't be careless.
"Let's eat!" Grandpa said.
The two people entered the house. The charcoal fire in the stove gradually burned out, and the pipes gradually cooled down. However, they did not feel how cold it was. After all, it was spring.
After eating and clearing away the dishes, Jiang Tian and his grandfather went to feed the pigs. When they came back, they happened to run into Xue Chengdong.
"I'm going to feed the pigs. I've just finished feeding them. These pigs are eating too much. They look fat and big-eared one by one, so they almost pull them out to be sold. When will we start harvesting them?" Pig?" Xue Chengdong asked.
Jiang Tian, ??"It should be in the past few days. As long as the pigs are out of the market, they can be taken away."
Xue Chengdong smiled, "I'm looking forward to it now. Anyway, as long as the restaurant comes to collect the pigs, they will definitely be able to sell them at a good price. The price of pork on the market is not high now. This is all thanks to you. Otherwise, my pig will also be You have to lose money.¡±
"All in all, my pigs are ready for slaughter, and a few sows have given birth to a lot of piglets. A few days ago, I thought about expanding the scale and raising more piglets. I went to the pig farm to look around and ordered more than thirty piglets."
"I have discussed it with my parents these days. I am not in a hurry to buy a house in the city. I plan to save a few more years and then go to first-tier cities to buy it. After all, education, medical care, transportation and so on are all there." It's much better than in the village. Actually, I don't care. Life in the village is quite comfortable. The main thing is to think about future generations and pave the way for them first so that they won't be so difficult when the time comes."
Jiang Tian smiled and said: "Brother Dongzi, you don't even have a partner yet, so you are thinking about future generations?" (Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel.com
