I don't know since when, taking a walk after meals has become a must for the Shen family.
After eating the hot stuffed fish balls, the three of them felt warm. Even in the snowy yard, they did not feel a hint of coldness. Instead, they felt refreshed because of the fresh air.
If you put this kind of life in other people's homes, you would never dare to think about it.
The entire central and northern region of the Great Yan Dynasty was in the grip of a snowstorm. Not to mention the people who had their hometowns destroyed and chose to migrate long distances, even Lin'an Prefecture, which was the least affected, lost their lives.
Shenjia Village saved food because they received the warning in advance, but it was also difficult to have enough to eat.
"Fortunately, our family lives near the village."
Shen Xingqi suddenly sighed, feeling sad in her heart.
Otherwise, if the fragrance is released every day, the villagers will have objections. This is not an appropriate way to attract hatred!
She never expected that the snowstorm would allow her to live a prosperous life that she had not experienced in more than ten years.
Is this true?
If it weren't for the fact that her stomach was still so full, she would have suspected that she was dreaming!
Thinking of the two little handkerchiefs who complained that they could only live on porridge at home during the day, Shen Xingqi touched her belly in fear.
Ah~the fish balls are so delicious!
How about going to the river tomorrow?
Cheng Xi, who was taking a walk, didn't realize that her sister-in-law's thinking had been led further and further away, and she suddenly stopped after taking two steps.
Look up at the sky.
"Did you hear anything?"
Today is the 27th of the twelfth lunar month and it is the end of the year. There is nothing in the sky except for the snowflakes that fall from time to time. It is as dark as a black hole.
The snowflakes fell lightly without any weight, and something seemed to be howling crazily around the originally silent place.
Shen Xingluo, who was walking in front, also stopped and listened attentively.
"It's the wind."
He seemed to remember something, and his black eyes suddenly darkened.
"Go inside first, the sky is going to change."
The sky is going to change?
It's been like this today, how can it change?
Cheng Xi was puzzled. Seeing his serious face, she realized something was wrong, so she took the little girl's hand and walked away.
However, before the two of them entered the door, they felt the snowflakes falling on them getting bigger.
"Eh?"
Shen Xingqi pinched a big piece of her shoulder with her hands, and then said "Ouch".
"Such heavy snow. Isn't this snow?"
"It's hail!"
How could hail fall in the winter?
Cheng Xi was horrified and pushed the person beside him into the door. His shoulder, which was left outside, was hit hard by something from the sky.
pain!
This is really cruel!
Cheng Xi pinched the shoulder that was hit hard by the acceleration, causing a tingling sensation.
Fist-sized hailstones fell one after another. They were not dense at first, but they fell into pieces in a matter of seconds.
The hail is getting bigger and bigger!
Shen Xingluo reacted quickly. While opening the other door, he wrapped his left arm around him and directly brought the person next to him into the north room.
"Are you okay?"
A low voice rang in his ears, and Cheng Xi felt the scene in front of him flash into the room, and his whole body was surrounded by the warm air in the room.
She looked up, but because the two were so close and their noses touched each other's chest, a chill suddenly hit her.
"."
The nose is going to fall off!
Why is this man so tall?
Only then did Cheng Xi realize that the cheap husband was a whole head taller than her, and even if she stood up straight, she could only reach his neck.
"Sorry, how are your shoulders?"
Due to his height advantage, Shen Xingluo could see her condition just by lowering his head.
But he still asked.
"It's okay. Fortunately, I hid quickly."
He was hit a little bit, and he will be fine after a while.
Cheng Xi calmly stepped back to widen the distance between the two.
"Bang-bang-bang-"
The fist-sized rainstorm hit things in the yard with a loud noise, which frightened the animals in the chicken and duck pens and screamed, and rattling sounds came one after another.
"Will the poultry be okay?"
"Probably not. The fence was built with red bricks and a thick layer of thatch was laid on top."
In fact, Shen Xingluo was not very sure.
In my memory, hail also fell a year ago. I don't remember the specific day. I just remember that the weather became colder after the hail. Many people's houses collapsed and their lives were lost that night due to the sudden drop in temperature.
Shenjiacun is no exception.
The hailstones hit the ground and the objects in the yard with a loud sound, and then the north wind blew wildly, making a humming sound when it encountered obstacles.
"The wind is stronger than before."
I heard something coming from far away just now, but I didn't expect it to come so fast!
Cheng Xi looked out through the window and saw that the thatch on the chicken and duck pen was blown everywhere and soon fell to the ground.
The hailstones that were smashed to pieces on the ground were also blown by the sudden strong wind, and crackled against the wall.
"Bang——"
The oil paper on the window made a rattling sound, and hailstones flew into the house.
If there is one, then there are two, but in the blink of an eye, several adjacent windows were smashed, and small particles of hail flew all over the floor.
"?!"
Damn it, this is a rhythm that no one can live with!
Cheng Xi was so shocked that he even forgot to react. Fortunately, Shen Xingluo reacted quickly and pulled down the wooden board on the window to block the wind and snow outside.
Almost all the windows in the north room had holes smashed out, and the oil paper was blown by the wind. A loud sound could be heard even through the wooden boards.
Shen Xingqi took a breath of cold air.
"Fortunately, there is another layer of wood inside the window."
Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to spend this night peacefully!
The little girl patted her chest and looked at her brother and sister-in-law with subconscious admiration.
How could they be so prescient!
No one would think that there would be hail one day in the winter, right?
It can even penetrate the window paper!
Alas, the Little Handkerchief family is probably going to suffer again.
Shen Xingqi opened the iron stove and added a few pieces of charcoal to it. The iron sheet was immediately burned red, adding some heat to the room.
And the coolness that originally spread due to the hail was gradually driven away.
Although nothing major happened to the Shen family, the three of them were in extremely heavy moods. They had almost digested their evening meal and gathered around the stove to do something.
Embroidery for embroidery, reading for reading.
In a daze. Continue in a daze.
Just as the three of them had worried, there were bursts of exclamations from every household in Shenjia Village.
The hail came so quickly that everyone didn't have time to react before it fell from the sky, catching everyone off guard.
The villagers hurriedly closed the door when they heard the sound, and the windows were smashed before they could even take a breath. The house that had finally gathered some heat suddenly became freezing!
"Oh my god, God is going to kill us!"
"What should we do now?"
"Oops, block the windows quickly, hail is coming in!"
