Continued 9
It snowed heavily all night and stopped the next day, with only scattered snow particles blown up by the wind.
The road was covered with thick snow. Xu Jin was wrapped like a cotton ball, with a velvet hat, scarf, gloves and earmuffs neatly arranged, and his cotton shoes squeaked on the snow.
Xu Shi'an followed behind him unhappily. He felt that he looked ugly dressed as a fat man and did not want to put on his cotton trousers. Jiang He gave him a rough beating before he got dressed honestly.
When he arrived at school, Xiaoxiao also wore thick clothes and little bunny-shaped earmuffs. He became happy and went over to pinch Xiaoxiao's bunny ears.
"Did that guy bully you again?" Xu Shi'an was very loyal and did not forget A Qing.
"there is none left."
Ah Qing shook his head and secretly looked at Xu Jin in front of him. If he didn't secretly do so, he would have been beaten by Xu Jin. He had no doubts about Xu Jin's ability to do what he said.
Although he was wrapped in cotton clothes like a little meatball, his beautiful face after taking off his hat and scarf made him a little dazed.
Good feelings always sprout inadvertently. When you have an advantage that is noticed, you will find that everyone likes you when you look at it.
At a young age, I didn’t know what liking was, but I just couldn’t help but look at her...
It wasn't until Xu Jin and Xiaoxiao turned around and glared at these two people that Xu Shi'an and A Qing pretended to open the book and prepare for morning reading.
The snow came late this year. After the snow, the winter vacation is not far away.
Xu Jin liked the winter vacation very much, but Xu Shian was both sad and happy.
The joy is that I am on vacation, but the pain is that I have been unable to go back to the old house with Xiaoxiao for a long time to play, eat together, and then go to school together after lunch break.
After these two offset each other, there are still several "Happy Winter Vacation" books, which means the pain is greater than the pleasure.
"Why do we call it a happy winter vacation when we are obviously happy without it?"
Xu Shi'an was very sad after getting these books of Happy Winter Vacation. He really wanted to ask the person who asked the question if there was something wrong with him. If he changed it to "Painful Winter Vacation", it would make people feel better. At least he wouldn't have to worry about the consequences.
Calling painful things happiness is a spiritual resistance.
"It's so thick." Xu Qing exclaimed. He didn't know if he remembered it wrong. Anyway, he felt that his winter vacation homework when he was a child was thicker than this.
Seeing Xu Shi'an's pitiful look, he couldn't help but sympathize with his son, but this was all an indispensable part of childhood.
"Here, let me help you make it thinner." Xu Qing stretched out his hand.
Xu Shi'an raised his head in surprise and ran over with his winter vacation homework in hand.
Then Xu Qing tore up the answer at the end.
Don't tell me, it's really thin, about one-fifth of the thickness.
Ignoring her son's tears welling up in his eyes, Xu Qing felt miraculous at Xu Jin's behavior of lying next to him and watching the musical with him.
"Do you like watching this?" he asked.
"I don't like it." Xu Jin shook his head.
"oh."
Xu Qing didn't ask anymore. He didn't look at this to cultivate any sentiments. At first, it was just to get familiar with French. Later, he found that these things were quite interesting. If he calmed down and read them, he would gradually realize the fun of it, just like someone who likes it.
It's like listening to a play.
People can do anything when they are free. Jiang He doesn't like this thing. If she has this time, she might as well study more about flowers and pretend to be awesome on the forum. After all, she is also a veteran of flower cultivation for so many years.
The two of them had already discussed the plan to take the siblings out to play during the winter vacation. Although they didn't know exactly whether they were taking Jiang He to play or taking the children to play, it was the same. When the whole family went out, they still had to seek their opinions.
"Should we go to the capital to climb the Great Wall, or go to Chang'an for fun?" Xu Qing asked the siblings to make up their minds. He and Jiang He decided on two places, and the siblings then chose one of the two. This is called democracy.
Anyway, there are palaces in both places. Take Jiang He to see the palace in the capital and climb the Great Wall to have a look. You can also go to Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty. After all, this bumpkin has never been there, and I told him about the imaginary Chang'an.
The city is prosperous.
"Go to the Great Wall!"
"Go to Chang'an!"
The two little guys had different opinions. Let them handle it on their own. Just don't fight anyway. Xu Qing took the little turtle and handed it over to Xu Wenbin and the others to help take care of it.
There is heating at home, so we don’t let it hibernate. A few years later, the little turtle is now as big as a palm, crawling around alone in its own territory. When it needs to eat and sleep, Jiang He helps it find food.
I got a female turtle, but she wasn’t too popular with the beetles.
Xu Wenbin really liked helping to take care of the turtle. He asked carefully about the precautions on what to feed, and waved his hand to indicate that he could get out.
"Dad, you really don't want to go together? Let's go out as a family. You travel a lot on business, and my mother never travels far." Xu Qing also wanted to persuade the old couple.
"Take your mother with you. I don't have time, and I don't like running around." Xu Wenbin waved his hand and poked the turtle shell with his fingers. He was not interested in traveling far away.
"I'm not going either, why are you running around in the middle of winter?"
Zhou Suzhi pouted her sleeves and went all the way to play for a few days. She might as well stay at home to warm up and play mahjong.
The so-called travel is to go from a place where you are tired of staying to a place where others are tired of staying...
If Jiang He hadn't been taken to see the Imperial Palace and Chang'an, which she had only heard of and never seen before, and the two children would go out more often to see different scenery, Xu Qing would also prefer to stay at home. This might be genetic.
"Dad, if you need some oil, go and bake it. If my mother doesn't give you money, come to me."
Holding the hot water and blowing a breath, Xu Qing looked at his father's hair and said, "Black hair makes you look younger. Look at how energetic I, Uncle Qin, am."
"He loves bad virtues..."
Xu Wenbin was disdainful, because the old man just loved beauty. When he was older, he loved to dance in the square and flirt with the old lady.
Pooh.
Without staying much, Xu Qing went downstairs and left. On the way, he met Qin Maocai. His hair was neatly combed, shiny and smooth, and he looked about ten years younger than Xu Wenbin.
Now that they have become grandfathers, they are already full of love. Xu Qing and Qin Hao both suspect that this old man is growing up in reverse.
Maybe it's because he got his wish. The old man who was always irritable when Qin Hao wasn't married is now happy every day and doesn't care about anything.
"Didn't Xiaojin and the others come together?" Qin Maocai greeted him, and the hot air from his mouth turned into cold mist and drifted away.
"No, come here to do something."
Xu Qing responded casually, got into the car and started the car.
The sky was a little cloudy and the sun was out. I drove back to the old house and turned off the water and electricity. Uncle Zhao was warming up under the sun in the security booth. He will retire next year. This is the last winter in which he will shine at his job.
"Uncle Zhao, smoking less is good for your health!"
"I just rely on it to survive."
Uncle Zhao chuckled, as usual, except that his temples were already gray.
Xu Qing left him a jar of scented tea made from dried ginger. Although he rarely comes here to drink tea, the siblings go to elementary school here and come over at noon, so they usually take care of it.
Xu Jin and Xu Jin were fighting with someone that day. If those two boys had come a little closer and let Uncle Zhao see them, he would definitely come out with his hands on his hips, yell at the little bastards, and protect the three of them behind him.
The familiar environment is good, the neighbors and the warmth of people are hard to feel in the new house. Xu Qing cherishes it very much.
When they returned home, the siblings had already discussed where to go. Shi'an helped Xu Jin write ten pages of winter vacation homework in exchange for her vote to support climbing the Great Wall. Chang'an City was put off for a later date.
