Chapter 1307 Heavy Snow

After Qin Sanlang heard this, he immediately apologized to the elders present.

The third grandma felt distressed and said: "It's not too late, it's only the Youshi hour. Brother Cheng, Qingxi, and Guiniu have all eaten a lot of barbecue and soup, so they are not hungry."

As he spoke, he brought a plate of cut roast mutton and stuffed it to Qin Sanlang: "Are you hungry? It's just roasted and it's still hot. Eat it quickly."

Then he looked at Gu Jinli: "Little fish girl, what are you doing in a daze? Sanlang likes grilled fish the most. Go and grill a few for him and let him eat."

Gu Jinli: "..."

I am just a tool person!

But she felt sorry for Qin Sanlang and ran to cook grilled fish for him.

The fish was killed by Lao Zhu's wife early in the morning. She mixed the sauce and started grilling it. Not long after, a plate of grilled fish was served: "There are four more, just bake them again."

Seeing that Brother Cheng was idle, he grabbed his back collar and said, "Let's go to the kitchen to help grill the fish."

Brother Cheng was dragged away by her, and he quickly waved to Gu Jinan: "Brother, save me."

But Gu Jinan was busy lighting the lanterns hanging on the corridor and had no time to pay attention to him. Brother Cheng could only ask Gu Jinxiu for help: "Sister, the second sister is bullying me again. As the boss, you have to take care of it."

Gu Jinxiu smiled and said: "But the eldest sister can't beat your second sister. Be obedient and help cook the grilled fish."

Gu Jinli smiled and said, "It's useless to ask for help. Just accept your fate. It's time for you to grow up."

What she said was a pun. Da Chu was defeated, and there would be a big change next. This change might affect all of them. In the past, they could pamper Brother Cheng, but now they can't. They have to let him grow up.

Brother Cheng said angrily: "Second sister, you are too fierce, be careful that Brother Sanlang doesn't want you."

Gu Jinli smiled: "This is impossible."

It gets dark quickly on the winter solstice, but in the blink of an eye, it's completely dark.

"Grandma, third grandma, uncle, it's snowing, it's snowing." Gui Niu was watching Gu Jin'an light the lamp in the corridor. When the lamp was turned on, she saw white snowflakes falling, and she ran back to the house in surprise. Talk to the adults.

"It's snowing?" Mr. Qin was surprised when he heard this. It's warmer in the south, and the moon usually starts to fall in the twelfth lunar month. It's only early November now, so why is it snowing?

It seems that this year is colder than previous years.

With this kind of weather, coupled with many events this year, I wonder how many people will freeze to death?

What Mr. Qin is most worried about is the Rong people's threshing of grass in the valley. The colder the weather, the more often the soldiers plow grass and valleys. The great Chu is in danger!

Qin Sanlang was also shocked. He put down the plate, stood up and walked out. He stood in the yard and raised his hand to catch the falling snowflakes. His hands were cold, with a biting pain... very cold, much colder than in previous years.

It is so cold in the south, but it will only be colder in the northwest and northeast.

He remembered what the old men in the army had said about the great cold wave. In such weather, if the Rong people launched a large-scale attack, even if the emperor gathered another million-strong army, they might not be able to stop them.

The Rong land was severely cold, and the Rong people resisted the cold. However, many soldiers died in the battle to the north of Zhongzhou in Dachu. If we wanted to recruit more troops, we could only start from the south.

Southerners are not resistant to freezing. They have never seen a scene of thousands of miles of ice. They have no idea how to survive in a land of ice and snow. If they go to the battlefield, let alone fight, they may freeze to death before reaching the place.

Gu Jinan looked at Luoxue, then at Qin Sanlang, and asked, "Is it serious?"

Qin Sanlang nodded, but didn't say much. Instead, he walked back into the house and said to everyone with a smile: "It's really snowing."

Today was the holiday and he should be happy. He didn't want to look so sullen and ruin the mood of several families.

After hearing this, Gu Dewang was so happy that he rushed to the yard with Gu Qingxi and the others, shouting: "Oh, it's really snowing. Qingxi, hurry up and get a basin to catch some snow. The teacher said, use snow water Making tea is the best, let’s learn from it today and be elegant!”

"Hey, I'll get it right now." Gu Qingxi was very happy and ran to get the basin happily, but couldn't get it.

Gu Jinli said, "Do you know what those snowflakes are made of?"

"What did it become? Does Sister Xiaoyu know?" Gu Qingxi asked curiously, waiting for the answer expectantly.

Gu Jinli said: "Do you know about the smelly pond at the junction of our village and Lianghe Village? And do you know about the open-air huts in our village, Lianghe Village, and nearby villages?"

Brother Cheng was helping grill the fish, but he couldn't stand listening anymore and said: "Second sister, stop talking, it's almost time to eat. When you talk about the latrine, do you want us to vomit?"

Gu Jinli: "Hey, I don't mean to disgust you, I'm just trying to spread common sense to you. Do you understand common sense?"

Brother Cheng ran away immediately after hearing this, and turned around and said, "Then tell Qingxi, I won't listen."

From the beginning, he knew it was a big trap, so he had better run away.

Gu Qingxi's face turned bitter, and he looked at Gu Jinli carefully and said, "Sister Xiaoyu, don't say anything too disgusting."

"Don't worry, it's not disgusting." Gu Jinli nodded in agreement, and then said with a smile: "All rain, hoarfrost, and snowflakes are all changed by water vapor. Water vapor is the sun shining on the earth. When the water on the ground reaches the sky, Something formed by condensation. And the water on the ground is the water in the pond, the water in the hut, and..."

"Sister Xiaoyu, stop talking, we won't take the snowflakes to make tea!" Gu Qingxi almost vomited and quickly interrupted Gu Jinli.

Gu Jinli smiled with a gentle look on his face: "Hey, don't give up in a hurry. It's okay if you want to catch snowflakes and make tea. After all, many literati like to do this. But I don't know how to drink it. You can drink it." Just be happy."

Gu Qingxi was about to cry and said hurriedly: "We won't drink either!"

After saying that, he hurriedly ran away to tell Gu Dewang what Gu Jinli said.

Gu Dewang couldn't bear to be dirty, but he also felt sick when he heard this. He ran down the corridor, found a cotton towel and patted the snowflakes on his body, spat twice, and said, "It's so disgusting."

Suddenly he burst out laughing again, ran into the room, and said to the people in the room: "It turns out that the tea those literati and crazy people drink is just urine!"

Everyone in the room was stunned. The third grandmother was so angry that she picked up the broom and started beating her: "Brother Wang, what are you talking about? You're almost done eating. You're talking about shit and urine. Do you want to be beaten?"

Gu Dewang hurriedly ran to hide behind Gu Dafu: "Uncle, save me, I didn't say nonsense."

"Sister-in-law, please stop fighting. I'll teach him a lesson when I get home after dinner." Gu Dafu hurriedly begged.

The wealthy couple were looking at the workshop in the city. They didn't come back this winter solstice, so he had to take care of Brother Wang and Brother Fa.

However, this fuss made Grandpa Qin's heavy mood feel better.

"It's time to eat, it's time to eat." Mrs. Cui, along with Lao Zhu's wife, Dalei's wife, Xu Wang and Wang Ma, brought the food up and greeted everyone to eat.

After the food was prepared, Lao Zhu's wife and the others went home to have a winter solstice meal with their family.
