Kang Xiaoqiao looked at Kang Daqiao's flushed face and rubbed her hands. She couldn't help but feel that her face was on fire. She coughed awkwardly and said, "Ahem, sis, what are you thinking about? I, I just met him today."
"My car broke down on the way. He came to pick me up--"
"Ah?"
Kang Daqiao was surprised at first, but then her smile disappeared and replaced with a sigh.
"Little sister, you're not lying to me, right?"
Kang Xiaoqiao immediately lowered her head and ate her noodles without answering. Kang Daqiao continued to frown and said, "Really?"
"This, this, I clearly saw my brother-in-law holding your hand, and you guys actually..."
"Hey, I'm still waiting to hug my little nephew."
After saying that, Kang Daqiao pulled Kang Xiaoqiao's hand and said, "Little sister, why don't I go? Didn't you say that you went to the factory this time? How is it? Is it going well? If it's done, I'll go over."
"Because I'm here, brother-in-law doesn't come home every day. If he doesn't come back, when can I hug my little nephew?"
Kang Xiaoqiao quickly pulled her hand back and said while eating, "Well, it's already decided. Second brother is cleaning up over there. When it's almost done, I'll bring you over. No rush, no rush--"
"Well, sister, I'm so hungry. Can you get me another bowl--"
...
Kang Xiaoqiao was truly helpless. Other families were all mothers-in-law urging them to carry their grandchildren. She had never seen an aunt who was in such a hurry to carry her nephew. Tell me, was it easy for her? Was it easy? Eh--
Time passed in the blink of an eye. In the blink of an eye, more than two months had passed quietly.
The cold winter had arrived. It had snowed heavily last night. This morning, it was covered in silvery light.
Kang Xiaoqiao struggled to get out of the warm blanket. When she saw that it was snowing outside, she shouted happily, "Sis, sis--"
Kang Daqiao hurriedly opened the door from the kitchen next door and entered the house. "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
The moment she entered the house, she saw Kang Xiaoqiao lifting the blanket and quickly putting on her clothes. As she put on her clothes, she said excitedly, "Sis, it's snowing outside. Look, it's snowing so heavily--"
Upon hearing this, Kang Daqiao let out a huge sigh and said, "I thought what happened? It's just snowing. You, eh, eh, eh, cover it up, cover it up. After the snow passes, the weather will be cold. Don't catch a cold."
Upon hearing this, Kang Xiaoqiao chuckled and said, "Sis, it's not cold. The house is hot. It's not cold anywhere."
"No, I have to wear it quickly. I'm going out to build a snowman."
Kang Daqiao looked at her younger sister who had the temperament of a child. She shook her head and said, "I know you like it. I didn't sweep the snow in the morning. I kept it all for you."
"I'll go get water for you. I'll go after washing your face and eating breakfast."
Kang Xiaoqiao nodded immediately. Then, she folded the quilt and went down to wash up.
Because of the cold weather, the kitchen had been moved back to the big house. Kang Daqiao was used to cooking with a big pot. She even cooked with the kang, killing two birds with one stone.
It was also convenient to cook. There was no heating at this time, and every family was burning a stove. It was also convenient for Kang Xiaoqiao to cook with a small pot on the stove.
Because of the cold weather, the stove fire never broke, and it was much more convenient to boil water.
Kang Xiaoqiao quickly washed up with warm water, and Kang Daqiao had already put the breakfast on the table.
At this moment, the door opened, and a tall figure appeared behind the curtain. With the cold wind, he quickly entered the room.
Kang Xiaoqiao was blown by the cold wind, and she shouted and ran back to the kang. "Aiya, it's so cold--"
Kang Daqiao saw the situation and quickly said, "Brother-in-law, you're back. It's time for breakfast."
Then she looked at Kang Xiaoqiao and said, "You know it's cold, right? Remember to wear more clothes later."
Kang Xiaoqiao hurriedly nodded. Then, she picked up the feather duster, ran to the edge of the kang, and patted Lu Yichen's body. "I'll sweep the snow for you. The snow yesterday was really heavy. It feels like it's more than a foot thick."
Lu Yichen took off his coat and took Kang Xiaoqiao's feather duster. He patted it twice and said, "That's our courtyard. Some places are even thicker than this. It's probably three feet thick."
Kang Xiaoqiao said in surprise, "What? Three feet?"
Kang Xiaoqiao's little head quickly calculated. This one foot was equivalent to more than 30 centimeters. That was up to the calf. Wouldn't this three feet be one meter thick?
Lu Yichen looked at Kang Xiaoqiao's shocked expression. He could not help but scratch her little nose and said, "What's wrong? Are you scared? Let me tell you, you have to be careful when you go out. If you're not careful, you might be buried alive by the snow. So, don't go out and run around randomly."
Kang Xiaoqiao covered her nose and pouted. "Why did I run around randomly?"
"Oh, right. Yichen, let's go build a snowman later. With such a thick snow, we can definitely build a big snowman. Yes, just, just put it there--"
"Put it in front of our window. I can see it every day when I wake up."
Hearing that, Lu Yichen glanced at the window. Then, his eyes moved and he said, "Then aren't you afraid that you can see it every day at night? There's a tall--"
"AH--"
Before Lu Yichen could finish speaking, Kang Xiaoqiao glared at him angrily and said, "Lu -- Yi -- Chen, you're so annoying, hmph."
After shouting, she ignored him. Meanwhile, the corners of Lu Yichen's mouth curled up. This darn girl was not afraid of anything but ghosts at night. As expected, once he said that, she was so scared that she showed her claws.
At this moment, Kang Daqiao also carried the food into the house. Now that the weather was getting colder, almost all the tables in the house were on the kang table.
This morning, they had a sumptuous breakfast. They made Kang Xiaoqiao's favorite food. Fragrant soft corn pancakes, millet nutritious porridge, and a few meat pies, steamed milk and chicken cake, as well as their own pickled vegetables.
Kang Daqiao's steamed milk and chicken cake could be said to be one of a kind. It was like Jelly, very delicious and smooth. Kang Xiaoqiao liked it very much. Of course, Lu Yichen also liked to eat it.
After breakfast, Kang Xiaoqiao began to get fully armed. She wore a split down jacket and down pants. The large and high collar covered half of her face. The big hat and the fur collar on the hat were very beautiful. The thick snow shoes... She was like a chubby little elf. Not only did she not look clumsy, but she looked cute and adorable instead. It did not affect her movements at all.
Today, she did not pull up her hair. Instead, she braided two braids on both sides because she wanted to wear a hat. Then, she put on a pair of thick gloves and set off fully armed.
The moment Kang Xiaoqiao pushed the door open, the dazzling sunlight made it so that she could not open her eyes. After she got used to it, she looked around and saw a snow-white scene. This mountain was white, the trees were white, and the houses were also white--
Kang Xiaoqiao revealed a brilliant smile. Under the sunlight, her eight teeth reflected a pure white light. Her big eyes blinked slightly. This small appearance was no one else. Lu Yichen, who was looking at the snow, was completely stunned.
