Chapter 41: CH 41

Overnight, the outside turned into a white world, with high and low buildings and mountains. The treetops and grass fields were all put on silver outfits.

Wei Jianwei opened the door and walked in. He was always the first to get up, and he came back with hot water from the boiling room.

He Xiaoyun saw him and excitedly said: "It's snowing!"

"Mn. It's a bit cold today, keep warm."

"Yeah." He Xiaoyun answered, her eyes still staring at the snow outside, quite a bit eager to go outside.

She was a Southerner in her previous life. She only saw a small amount of snow once when she was in her twenties. This was the first time she saw such a large amount of snow, and now, she wanted to run out and have fun.

"Don't play in the snow, you will have frostbite." Wei Jianwei shattered her beautiful thoughts.

He Xiaoyun subconsciously looked at her hands. She still remembered that one year ago, her two little fingers had frostbite. The thought in her heart immediately scattered.

"Okay..." She looked out the window reluctantly, then closed the curtains and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

When Wei Yuanhang got up, he saw the snow and immediately ran over to her and asked in a fuss: "Mom, what's that outside?"

"It's snow."

The child tilted his head and asked, "What is snow?"

He Xiaoyun didn't know what to answer, so she simply said, "It's the ones outside."

Wei Yuanhang frowned, not satisfied with the answer, "Where did the snow come from?"

"It falls from the sky like rain."

After breakfast, Wei Jianwei went to the camp, while Wei Yuanhang stood by the window, looking at the snow outside with curiosity and wonder.

Not long after, Wang Derong ran over, seeing that Wei Jianwei was not at home, he became courageous, and shouted: "Xiaoyuan! Xiaoyuan, let's go down and had a snowball fight!"

Wei Yuanhang slid and was about to run out, He Xiaoyun quickly stopped him, "Don't run out like this. Be careful and don't be silly."

Children have a fast metabolism, high body temperature, and blood vessels that are not easy to freeze. They will go out to play for a while and won't worry much about frostbite. However, He Xiaoyun still found the thickest cotton clothes and put them on him, put on a scarf and gloves, wrapped his whole body tight, before letting him go out.

"I'll be back after a while."

"Got it!" The two children ran away all at once.

He Xiaoyun stood by the window and looked around, she saw that there were already several children downstairs, all dressed like big balls, swayingly running on the snowy ground. If they're not careful, they will throw themselves into the snow, just like a clumsy little penguin, chubby and cute.

He Xiaoyun watched for a while, then turned around and started knitting a scarf. Wei Jianwei and Wei Yuanhang already had one, so she had to knit one for herself.

Before long, Xu Lanxiang finished her housework and came over to talk to her with the sweater half-knitted.

"Looking at the weather, I will start to accumulate sauerkraut in two days. How much are you going to accumulate this year?"

He Xiaoyun was confused, "Huh?"

"Making sauerkraut, why? You didn't make it in previous years?" Xu Lanxiang asked.

He Xiaoyun just remembered that there is indeed a custom of accumulating sauerkraut in the north. Because it's too cold in winter, there are basically no edible vegetables. Unlike in the south, where the fields are green all year round.

"Do you have enough clothes for winter? Do you want to wear another sweater? I was studying knitting with Sister Xu recently." He Xiaoyun asked Wei Jianwei.

When she and Wei Yuanhang arrived, they couldn't bring too much luggage. The winter clothes were packed and mailed, but the cotton-padded clothes worn in the south were not enough to wear in the north. She planned to knit two more sweaters and trousers by herself and wore them.

Wei Jianwei nodded, "It's enough. There are two cloth tickets in the drawer. You and the child can add another cotton coat for yourselves."

He Xiaoyun wanted to say no, but couldn't figure out how cold the winter in the north would be. She's afraid that she wouldn't be well prepared and it would be difficult to get through. Wei Jianwei is a big man, unlike her and her child who are afraid of the cold. 

He Xiaoyun said: "I will ask Sister Xu tomorrow to see if it's necessary."

"Whether you need it or not, you need to be prepared for it." Wei Jianwei said.

He Xiaoyun thought about it for a while. This is indeed the truth. After all, it's their first year to spend the winter here. It's always right to be fully prepared, "Okay, then I will buy it on the street instead."

Wei Yuanhang stared at the sweet potato for a while. Seeing that the scent became stronger and stronger, he couldn't help asking, "Mom, can we eat it now?"

Seeing that he's like a small hungry cat, He Xiaoyun smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, let's check the small one first."

He Xiaoyun touched the sweet potato with her hand. It didn't feel very hot, so she picked it up directly. Unexpectedly, after a second or two, the hotness came from her fingertips. She hissed and put the sweet potato down again, "It's hot."

Wei Jianwei put down his book and held her hand to look at it. (Ehem ehem)

When winter comes, He Xiaoyun has cold hands and feet, but Wei Jianwei's hands remained warm. The warm palms wrap her hands, which is actually quite comfortable, but a little kid is staring at them. He Xiaoyun pulled out her hand uncomfortably, "Nothing, there's no blistering."

Wei Jianwei didn't let her touch the sweet potato anymore, he broke the sweet potato into two halves, let it cool for a while, and divided it between her and the child.

Wei Yuanhang took a bite, it was hot but he's reluctant to vomit it out, and vaguely said, "It's so delicious."

"Eat slowly, don't choke." He Xiaoyun shook her head helplessly, fanning his mouth with her hand.

After eating the sweet potatoes, seeing that it was almost time, she move the child to bed and coaxed him to sleep, and then went back to the stove to read.

Three stools were placed around the stove. Wei Yuanhang was originally sitting in the middle. After he fell asleep, this position became vacant.

Wei Jianwei patted the empty stool beside him and said to her, "Sit here."

He Xiaoyun glanced at him and did not move, "What are you going to do?" (Editor-in-charge: Do you? *dirty snicker*) 

Upon seeing this, Wei Jianwei moved and sat next to her. The chairs were placed a little closer, and as soon as he sat down, the two people were basically leaning together.

Her space suddenly narrowed, and He Xiaoyun moved her legs, "What are you doing being so close to me?"

Wei Jianwei did not answer. Instead, he pulled her free hand and held it in his palm, "Why is your hand so cold?" (Editor-in-charge: Such a smooth operation there, Jianwei ( •̀ ω •́ )✧)

This should be better now... right?
