However, even if there is no harvest, fortunately, there is no shortage of grain in their bamboo baskets, and even the places where those who leave are occupied. The harvest is good, at most it is a cold winter with half hunger and half satiety.

"It's so cold!" When Xu Qing came in from the outside, he shivered all over with cold. He took off his shoes and climbed to the Kang.

Li Changting came in from behind with a basket and quickly put down his quilt.

Li Jinmei took the basket in his hand and said, "go and lie on the Kang for a while!"

"It's OK. I'm ok." Li Changting went to the kitchen to wash his hands.

Li Jinmei looked at the potatoes and sweet potatoes in the basket: "this head is almost mature. It's good. You can harvest it."

By the middle of December, it was cold outside.

"Close it quickly. If you don't close it, it will freeze out." Xu Qingdao.

"I'll go in the afternoon and have dinner first. I'll tell the patriarch." With that, Li Jinmei put on a coat and went out.

Since we have decided to harvest, let's harvest together. Although it's far from the time when the crops are fully mature, as Xu Qing said, no matter how cold it gets, the crops won't grow and may freeze. It's better to harvest them now.

After lunch, we took baskets and bamboo baskets to dig potatoes and sweet potatoes in the field. We thought the fruit would be very small, but when we pulled it out, it was quite big!

For a moment, the whole mountain was full of excited, excited voices and shouts, even the surrounding temperature did not feel so piercing.

People transport grain to their caves in baskets, even leaves and sticks. These are edible. Although they taste bad, who cares when they are hungry.

It took us a day and a half to collect all the crops from the top of the mountain into our cave, and we also planed all the soil to avoid any fish from the net.

Xu Qing and Xu Ying moved their grain harvest to Hao Wei's and Xu Ying's cave.

Since winter, because Huier and xiaomeizi are worried about living in a cave, and in order to save firewood, Hao Wei and Xu Ying move to live with Huier and xiaomeizi.

It's just right for four people to sleep on the hot Kang. It's usually convenient for Hao Wei to cook, and the empty cave of Hao Wei's room is just used to put food.

Duanmu Xiang doesn't know how to burn Kang. He lives in a cave by himself. It's either too hot or too cold. He just lives in Xu Qing's space. He usually feeds chickens with all kinds of medicine and occasionally comes out to play mahjong.

Xu Qing and Li Changting are worried that Li Jinmei will not be frightened when they come here occasionally at night, so they have been sleeping in the cave since winter.

If we don't burn the hot Kang at night, we will probably freeze to death when we fall asleep.

the harvest this autumn is very good. We have calculated our own grain reserves, and it will not be a problem until the weather gets warmer tomorrow spring.

They didn't know that the reason why the harvest was good was that Xu Qing continuously watered the Lingquan water every three days for more than a month. In other places where there was no Lingquan water, the harvest in the whole autumn was either strong or miserable.

In the cave.

Hao Wei is preparing dinner, while Li Jinmei and Xu Ying take out unused quilts and change their padded jackets to sew another layer of cotton.

The charcoal in the brazier was red and occasionally crackled. There was a copper pot on it. Soon the water in the pot began to boil.

Xu Qing sits on the Kang, covers his hand stove, and sticks it with Li Changting, waiting for the meal.

Since Maodong, she has completely become a lazy cat who opens her mouth and reaches for her hand. Both tea and rice are delivered to her by Li Changting. She can't get off the Kang without getting off the Kang.

Duanmu Xiang is more than her. He only comes out for lunch every day. He stays in the space at other times. For breakfast and dinner, it is said that he baked a sweet potato by himself. In fact, he cooked delicious food in the space.

He asked Xu Qing to teach him some home-made dishes. There are many dishes in the space, so he can do whatever he likes. Sometimes when Xu Qing makes extra meals for Li Changting, he can also have a meal by the way.

After dinner, Xu Qing and Li Changting go back to their cave. They don't go in and out of the space as often as they used to. The main reason is that it's very cold outside and the temperature difference in the space is too big. People who go in and out frequently are easy to get sick.

They were lying on the Kang and reading in the quilt. One of Yin xianggei's books was about strange people and strange things, which was quite interesting. Xu Qing asked Li Changting to translate classical Chinese for her while reading.

Two people head against head, even breathing are blended together, but a little bit of beautiful mind dare not rise.

"Qing'er, your birthday is coming."

"No, it's far away."

"I'm talking about your birthday here." "You're going to be 18," Li reminded

Xu Qing quickly calculated with his fingers: "there are six days left!"

Li Changting turned his head and looked at her with a faint look.

Xu Qingxin is not flustered, face is not red, she sighed: "if there is no natural disaster, I'll leave it to you, but now or forget, I don't want to be pregnant."

"Life is too hard now, and I don't want you to get pregnant." "But it doesn't have to be the last step," Li saidHe gave a vague reminder and tried carefully. Of course, if Xu Qing could not accept it, he could tolerate it.

Xu Qing instantly understood his meaning. She buried her face in the quilt. After a while, she replied with a smile: "yes."

"Really?"

"You're stupid, you didn't say it earlier!" Xu Qing laughed at him.

Li Changting had a crack in his face. He was a little angry. He put people in his arms and said, "didn't you say you can't do intimate things?"

"Yes." Xu Qing's eyes were flighty, "but if you ask me to be coquettish, can't I refuse you? I just said that I didn't want to get pregnant too early, but I didn't expect that you could even restrain kissing. How could you be so cute... "

Love word has not finished, Xu Qing was opposite the man to kiss sealed, completely blocked the mouth.

One by one, the clothes were thrown out of the quilt. They were rolled by the waves and swayed by the candles. The temperature in the cave rose several degrees. In a moment, it went from cold winter to warm spring.

At noon the next day, Xu Qing climbed down the Kang with trembling legs and said that he would not stay on the Kang!

Although Li Changting didn't make it to the end, he didn't use her politely at all. The man who has been abstinent for a long time is terrible!

"Ah Qing, why are you so red?" Li Jinmei looked at Xu Qing's look, "are you sick?"

Xu Qing is really a little dizzy: "thermometer, I measure."

37.9 degrees, low fever.

"Oh, I have a fever. You are freezing!" Li Jinmei worried, "you wait, I'll cook brown sugar ginger tea for you."

After a while, Xu Qing felt her nose itching, and her head became heavier and heavier. She sucked her nose, and a few noises came from her nose.

Damn, it's really a cold!
