Chapter 254. Handwarmer
When Lin Qing He said that, she received a bitter glance from Zhou Qing Bai.
"Be good. I'm doing this for the next generation of your old Zhou family. It will be the reputation of your old Zhou family if they became successful in the future." Lin Qing He touched his handsome face and leaned forward to pluck a peck.
Must say, she fed her family Qing Bai family very well.
Although he came back from the army and faced manual hardship under the sun, he didn't become old meat that can't be chewed on or can't bear to take a bite. Still very manly and attractive to her.Zhou Qing Bai's expression became soft when he was kissed by his wife.
"Go for a walk this afternoon." Zhou Qing Bai nodded and confirmed.
It was twenty-ninth. Tomorrow was New Year's Eve. It will be a hectic day.
Unfortunately, when they got up from their nap at two, it started to snow.
"Can't go out." Lin Qing He stated.
Zhou Qing Bai felt powerless. This snowy weather can really choose the time.
"What do you want to eat?" Lin Qing He asked."You." Zhou Qing Bai stared at her with glowing eyes.
Lin Qing He's aunt came the past few days. Except for having a good time during the period she came back, Zhou Qing Bai can only touch to soothe his addiction these few days.
"Second Brother, what do you want to eat?" San Wa's voice sounded from the room.
When Lin Qing He felt these words were so familiar, she heard Er Wa's low voice: "You!"
All at once, Lin Qing He's face became flushed.
Zhou Qing Bai said: "Zhou Xuan, Zhou Gui Lai, get out and train at once!"
Zhou Xuan was Er Wa, Zhou Gui Lai was San Wa.
Initially, the two brothers were mimicing in the room, but now they shuddered. Then they came out and entered a squat stance together. Both brothers were suffering.
Zhou Kai came back from outside with two pheasants.
This was what he caught when he went out with others about the same age in the village with the net.
The gain was bountiful, so everyone evenly divided it. Zhou Kai received two. Seeing his two younger brothers in a squat, he knew that they must have provoked their father.
"Mother, I picked up two pheasants and came back. Fry one tonight?" Zhou Kai said.
"Okay." Lin Qing He paid no heed to the two young ones. They deserved it. Daring to parrot and tease their parents, they should be punished.
Zhou Qing Bai sent his eldest son to tidy up the pheasants.
Lin Qing He grabbed a handful of mushrooms and soaked them. Stewing pheasant with mushrooms was delicious.
She set aside the feet and wings to stew a chicken soup. Although there were only a few pieces, the soup was very flavorful. Adding corn mantou and pickled veg with fish dish, it was complete.
In the afternoon, the snow fell endlessly. It didn't stop until 7 o'clock in the evening. After a while, it started to fall again.
It was freezing enough.
"There is no kang in the school, how freezing will you be?" Mother Zhou couldn't help think about it.
"I heard that the heating system is about to be installed. Don't know if it can make it in time to be used." Lin Qing He said.
It was certainly cold. Of course, if one didn't get out of bed. It was okay when hiding in the bed. Once out of bed, one can't stand it.
For this reason, Lin Qing He planned to wait for this summer and store two boxes of tomatoes in the space. The air was too dry. She was worried about getting nosebleeds!
Zhou Qing Bai only listened. There was no snow the next morning, so he went out early. It was unknown what he went to do. He didn't come back until about lunch.
He had a handwarmer when he came back.
By the stove, Lin Qing He's eyes lit up. This was used by major household in the past to warm their hands by holding it!
"This is handy. After the new year, take it with you." Zhou Qing Bai said.
It was really convenient. Just pour in hot water. When the water is cold, one can pour it out and replace it with new hot water. No problem at all.
"Father, what about me?" Zhou Kai asked.
Mother Zhou also nodded: "Why didn't you buy one for Da Wa?"
"It wasn't bought. It's not sold outside. There's just this one." Zhou Qing Bai stated.
This one was the one he requested his comrades to find. If not, it won't be easy to obtain.
"Be good. You are full of youthful vigor and your vitality is enough to keep out the cold. It doesn't matter if you don't use it." Lin Qing He comforted without sincerity.
She had already poured hot water in to test it.
"Mother, usually, shouldn't it be giving it to their own son the first that comes to a mother's mind?" Zhou Kai asked.
"Mother is different from other mothers. The first person I think of when I get a good thing is your father." Lin Qing He answered.
Zhou Qing Bai's eye carried a hint of a smile.
The three sons couldn't stand it anymore. They were fed a handful of dog food without warning and retreated quickly.
Mother Zhou grinned and said nothing.
Lin Qing He held the handwarmer in her hand. It was so cozy and easy to use.
Back in the room, Lin Qing He talked with Zhou Qing Bai: "You went out in the morning, just for this?"
"En." Zhou Qing Bai responded. He didn't know if he could get it, so he didn't bring it up.
Lin Qing He sat in his arms and looked at her own man. He never said anything caring. At most just a few sentences a day. Still, he always kept her matters in his heart.
He didn't speak much yesterday. And today, he rode out after eating breakfast and got her this handwarmer back.
"Qing Bai." Lin Qing He's heart was warmed and called out to her own man.
Zhou Qing Bai hugged his wife and didn't speak. It was obvious that he enjoyed his wife showing him such a soft side.
The couple soaked in the gentleness for a while before Lin Qing He got up to fry the pheasant.
One pheasant was left from yesterday. They can have it now, right? All was fried with pickled veg residue. There was a shrimp soup. Then they were eaten with bean flour mantou.
Today was New Year's Eve. At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Third Brother Lin came over with two pheasants.
He picked up four of them.
It was called picking, but in truth, it was hunting. It's just that the opinions vary from place to place.
Because she knew that he still had two more, Lin Qing He had no reservation. She poured him a large cup of brown sugar and ginger soup. Only then, his complexion improved.
Then she passed him a pack of white rabbit candy to take back and said, "Bring the children over for New Year's greetings tomorrow. I will prepare delicious food for them."
"Okay." Third Brother Lin smiled and took the remaining two pheasants and a bag of white rabbit candy back.
"Did you go to Third Sister's place?" As soon as she saw this packet of white rabbit candy, Third Sister-in-law Lin said.
"I did. My sister told us to visit tomorrow." Third Brother Lin nodded.
"Why did you bring two back and not leave one for Third Sister?" Third Sister-in-law asked when she saw two pheasants.
"I gave two. I was lucky today and picked up four." Third Brother Lin explained.
Third Sister-in-law Lin revealed a smile on her face. With these two pheasants, some leftover meat from the previous distribution, the numerous chickens they raised, and accumulated eggs, this year's New Year will be a good one.
