Chapter 367： If it doesn’t snow this year

Chapter 367 If it doesn’t snow this year

From building and drying the house to the time when the children actually came to check in for school and move in, it was already mid-to-early June. At that time, the house that belonged to the Huo family had already reached the final stage of roofing and roofing.

The new house was built, spacious and elegant. No matter whether it was the uncles, sisters-in-law or daughters-in-law who came over to look at it, there was no one who did not praise it and show envy in their eyes.

Originally, Huo Lang wanted Si Ningning to come over and have a look and witness, but unexpectedly, he clashed with the literacy class and Si Ningning didn't come.

The Zhao couple also seemed to have made an appointment. One was at the literacy class, accompanying Si Ningning and Jiang Yue, assisting the captain and family members who came. After explaining everything clearly, they took out With the team's seal, Si Ningning wrote a note and then stamped it.

The other one came to Horang.

Although the house has been built, it is empty without furniture, and there are a lot of broken bricks, rotten tiles and other small debris on the ground.

Holang gathered the bricks and tiles together randomly, shoveled them all with a shovel, and piled them on one side outside the door.

He doesn't plan to throw away these things. He will tidy up the courtyard after cleaning them up in two days. Then he will use the broken bricks and tiles to pave a path in the courtyard.

This prevents Si Ningning’s shoes from being stained by subsequent rains, and also prevents her from accidentally falling due to slippery ground.

Horang cleaned up these rough and large items, while Chen Lianmi was responsible for cleaning the dust in every corner of the house and the dry lime bulges on the floor.

There was no one else around. Chen Lianmi was cleaning while chatting with Huo Lang:

“I introduced you before, but I didn’t say I didn’t want it. Finally, I found someone you liked, so I told you to hurry up, but you said you didn’t have a suitable place to live, so it was hard to ask.”

“It’s good now, and the house is completed. When will you and Si Zhiqing’s affairs be settled?”

Huo Lang's elbow muscles bulged, he gripped the handle of the shovel and inserted it hard into the pile of rubble. He shoveled out a large shovel and poured it into the basket on one side. He chuckled heartily, "It's not urgent, wait for me first." Clean up and buy some big things for the house.”

After saying that, he said with a funny smile: "If you are really in such a hurry, just get it done. When Ningning comes back, there won't be any place to lie down."

Chen Lianmi sighed after hearing this, but what Huo Lang said made sense.

Chen Lianmi couldn't refute, so she stamped her feet helplessly and said: "It's not urgent yet. If you're not in a hurry, your uncle is almost dying of it!"

Huo Lang raised a gentle smile on his thin lips, glanced up at Chen Lianmi, and then continued working with his head down, "Why are you so anxious, uncle? If you are anxious, you are also anxious about Baokang. I will definitely do this sooner or later."

Chen Lianmi didn't take it seriously. It could be seen that Huo Lang's expression was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and she was very anxious.

You say that this man is a big boss, and he has such a good girl in front of him. Why are he still bothering here if he doesn't get the matter done quickly?

Then we have to wait until the child is born in the future, and the babies of the same age will be able to go out to make soy sauce?

Chen Lianmi softened her tone and told Huo Lang seriously: "Don't blame my aunt for not reminding you. Everyone in the team has seen how good a girl Si Zhiqing is, and your uncle can't even read a few Chinese characters. Do you think he can do this?" What are you doing squatting in the literacy class?"

The people in the team did not dare to compete with Huo Lang, but it was different for outsiders.

Huo Lang vaguely understood something. He slowed down his movements, arched his eyebrows and looked at Chen Lianmi with a hint of seriousness.

 Chen Lianmi knew that he had heard her, but it was not enough just to hear it in her heart. She had to make him anxious, worry about his wife being snatched away, and then quickly get everything done smoothly.

So Chen Lianmi continued to add:

"You may not know that you have been busy building a house these days. The literacy class was expanded earlier, and the young guys from the production teams next door came to work. Their conditions may not be as good as yours, but they are also young and energetic. Master, I’m not afraid of hitting a wall and suffering.”

“Si Zhiqing is beautiful, well-educated, and friendly to others. Many young men and women are staring at her.”

Chen Lianmi is telling the truth.

After all, another year of busy farming is around the corner. Which production team doesn’t have a lot of work in the field?

Even if we are sending children to school, a few production team captains are enough.

If you are afraid of something happening on the road, it would be enough to pick a few strong laborers to protect you all the way. But look who are all here today?

One by one, it is not an exaggeration to say that Si Ningning has three aunts and six wives.

 Chen Lianmi has been looking for a wife for Huo Lang for so many years, and she knows it very well.

What else can it be used for?

In the guise of sending the children here to learn knowledge, I came here to see my daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law.

Having said all this, if Huo Lang still doesn't understand, then Chen Lianmi will really be anxious. Fortunately, Huo Lang did not disappoint her. As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a "chua" sound.

Holang stuck the shovel on the pile of rubble, took a long step, and walked out with a meteoric stride.

 Chen Lianmi felt happy and very pleased, but thinking that there were many young men coming today, she hurriedly threw away the broom in her hand and chased out the door and said:

"Be polite! Just let them see that Si Zhiqing is your wife. Don't hit them!"

The words "Don't hit anyone" were told by Chen Lianmi three or four times in a row.

Horang is a tall man, and he has been a soldier, so he has some training in martial arts. If he gets angry and punches him, why should he smash half of his head?

That is not necessary.

Thinking about it, Chen Lianmi felt a little confused. She packed up hastily and quickly put her things down, closed the door of Huo's house and followed her to the team.

On the other side, Si Ningning was immersed in writing at the table amidst the noisy conversation. There was a sudden "click" in front of her. Her eyes staring at the tip of the pen moved up slightly, and she saw a slender and rough hand that was only found in men. Support on the table.

Turning his eyes back to the tip of the pen, Si Ningning neatly wrote down the date of enrollment and the name of the child. He also briefly wrote down the location of the literacy class and the student's home address. In order to avoid quarrels in the future, Si Ningning wrote very clearly.

“Comrade, please wait a moment. The receipt will be written soon. Please take this to our captain for stamping later.”

She was talking to herself without raising her head, and she didn't feel surprised that she didn't wait for the other person's response after she finished speaking. It wasn't until she finished writing all the information, raised her head and handed the note out, that she was suddenly startled when she saw the person coming.

"How did you come?"

"Auntie said there are a lot of people here and it's very lively, so I came over to take a look." Si Ningning showed a bright smile, and from the corner of her eye she saw several young people lining up behind her. She put her hand on Huo Lang's wrist and pulled her Huo Lang stood beside him and continued to repeat the previous work.

The only difference from her seriousness just now is that she would occasionally smile and tilt her head to say a word or two to Huo Lang.

“Everyone in the house is doing well?”

“Well, just clean it a little more and remove the dust and that’s it.”

There were only a few children in total, but many family members came. Si Ningning did not expect this. She just thought that these young men were here to help her brothers and sisters register for school. She was friendly and formulaic. He asked for the child's name and family information, and then wrote it down neatly on the note.

Huo Lang stood beside her, with a calm look on one side and a warm voice as he responded. On the other side, a pair of deep peach blossom eyes were filled with cold light. He raised his jaw slightly and stared at those people who were sizing him up and down secretly with some displeasure and contempt. A young man from Ningning.

Si Ningning is very good, and Huo Lang doesn't mind her showing her excellence, nor does he mind others admiring her or liking her, but this doesn't mean that he doesn't mind blatantly coveting her.

Huo Lang's sharp eyes made the young men feel puzzled at first. However, as they heard the conversation between Si Ningning and Huo Lang, as well as the intimate and natural movements during their interaction, the young men gradually understood some subtle things.

The girl in front of me, who was laughing and talking freely, found someone.

The person was standing next to me at the moment, really looking at them with that look...

At that moment, disappointment and shame surged up. Except for the young man who was receiving and questioning Si Ningning, everyone else backed away. You pushed me. I pushed you out of the room. After a while, the person who came in again to write a note turned out to be the middle-aged sister-in-law.

Si Ningning was busy, and Huo Lang was quietly on the side. Si Ningning occasionally asked questions, and Huo Lang answered truthfully. Until almost an hour later, everyone got the note, and no one came in to look for it again. Si Ningning was chatting with Zhao Hongbing outside. Only then did they officially start chatting.

“The news about Gaiwa came out in the morning, and it was finished so quickly? Don’t lie to me.”

Si Ningning simply cleared the table and teased Huo Lang with a smile.

When he was asking questions and writing notes to those **** men just now, she could see the look on Huo Lang's face that was like the king of hell.

I thought that besides being serious about official matters, Huo Lang was kind to her and her relatives and friends, but I didn't expect that he had such an unhuman side.

Si Ningning put her fist to her lips and laughed softly. Before Huo Lang opened his mouth to defend, she blinked her eyes and asked in a quirky and playful way: "Are you jealous?"

Huo Lang thought that the ghostly girl knew what she was asking, but he sighed slightly, raised his slender index finger and lightly scratched the tip of Si Ningning's nose, and said, "I'm jealous, but so what?"

"Um?"

Si Ningning looked blank, but Huo Lang said with a smile: "I am the only one who is lucky enough to see the flowers bloom, and that's enough."

This sentence was very ambiguous. Si Ningning took a moment to react before scolding him as "unfair".

Huo Lang hummed and smiled happily. He slid his big hand down and played with Si Ningning's braid twice. "Are you done with your work? You haven't done it in the morning. Come to my place for dinner at noon? I'll cook."

Si Ningning laughed, "You? Can you do it?"

“Why not?” Huo Lang disagreed and answered calmly:

“What do you want to eat? If I don’t know how, just command me and I’ll do it.”

Si Ningning tidied the table and locked the ruler and paper in the drawer. She put the pen on her backpack and stood up, walking side by side with Huo Lang. She raised her chin arrogantly, "What do you mean? I remember it."

It's hot during this period, so pork can't be stored. In addition, Holang is busy finishing up the house these days and doesn't go out much. There is no fresh pork at home, but there is still bacon that is heavily salted on the edge. Some.

Horang cut off a palm-sized piece of bacon, which was fat and thin, and soaked it in water. He rubbed it to remove the ash that fell on it, and then soaked it to remove the salt on the surface.

After Huo Lang and Si Ningning got together, the family rarely ate other whole grains except sweet potatoes. They mostly ate noodles and rice, and soaked the bacon. He then changed hands and finished the work of washing and steaming the rice, and then wiped it clean. Went to the backyard to collect green garlic.

There are very few off-season vegetables in this era. Firstly, there are no such conditions, and secondly, there is no time. The simple farmers at the grassroots level will choose to grow some seasonal vegetables and fruits with a certain yield.

It's June now, which is not the season for growing green garlic, but Si Ningning can't help but think too much. She came to Chen's house to cook before and saw several intact bamboo tubes piled in the corner, so she filled half of the tubes with water. , randomly placed a few small branches and stuffed them in to ensure that the garlic would not fall, and then placed a few garlic on top.

Perceiving Si Ningning’s intention at that time, Huo Lang also joked that Si Ningning’s idea was fanciful and it was impossible to grow green garlic this season.

Si Ningning also replied to him, emphasizing that it was hydroponics.

Horang had a rough understanding of the principle, and vaguely felt that it made sense, but he still felt that it was impossible.

However, what is the final fact?

Huo Lang pulled out a bunch of green fresh garlic from the bamboo tube on the steps of the backyard. While picking off the yellowed and withered top of the leaves, he washed it with well water. After washing, he carried the garlic and walked into the house with a soft voice. He asked Si Ningning happily:

"The green garlic looks good. I'll fry some bacon with the green garlic at noon. Oops, I forgot to pick the chive flowers. Don't you like to eat mixed rice with steamed eggs with chive flowers? I forgot to pick it this time, so I'll make do with an ordinary steamed one. Eggs okay?”

“Okay, I can eat anything, don’t make it sound like I’m picky, okay?”

“Hmph…Okay, okay.”

After lunch at noon, Huo Lang washed the dishes and took advantage of Sanmiao Hegu's nap to take Si Ningning to see the new house. According to his previous plan, he asked Si Ningning what he meant:

“The doors and windows are all installed. You can live here just by moving things here. Do you have any other ideas? For example, where should I put the bed and where should I put the cabinets?”

"It's very good as you said before." Si Ningning shook her head, looked around, and then looked back at Huo Lang, "You don't have to wait for me in this house... You should move here anyway. The light here is bright during the day. The house is also dry. If you come here early, you and Sanae Hegu will be able to live more comfortably."

"Okay." Huo Lang nodded and took a breath. He took Si Ningning's hand and climbed up the wooden stairs to the attic. He said hesitantly:

“What about the matter between the two of us?”

He said this aside, fearing that Si Ningning would misunderstand that he was urging her, so he hurriedly explained:

“I’m not rushing you, nor am I in a hurry, just, that’s it.”

Huo Lang turned around and looked at Si Ningning with some resentment, "The probability of snow in the south is not as good as that in the north. It didn't snow last year. Now the houses are built. What if it doesn't snow again this year?"

It’s the end of the month, please ask for a monthly pass!

If you babies still have monthly votes, don’t forget to vote for Ayao~
