In early December, it snowed again in Wanli City.

In Wang Yi's impression, Wanli City has never experienced such heavy snow.

"Brother Wang! You're back, grandma made hot pot today, she learned it from Wanli Inn, come and eat at my house!"

"I know, go back! Last time I went to the pier to find me in the snow, I almost fell ill, and this time I came out in the heavy snow, I don't think you have taken bitter medicine , I want to try it!"

Wang Yi's threats are of no use to Zhao Erfu, Zhao Erfu has been in good health since he was a child and rarely gets sick, but he understands that Wang Yi cares about him, so he nodded again and again, and replied obediently: "I know I see, Brother Wang is right! I'm going home now, Brother Wang, come quickly!"

After saying that, he turned and ran away.

The two are very close and are neighbors. From Zhao Erfu's house to Wang's house, you can walk a few steps.

Wang Yi looked at Zhao Erfu's back, shook his head and laughed, "It looks like a monkey, who does it look like?"

Zhao Erfu's father is honest, and his mother walks slowly.

Hang the bamboo hat wet by the snow in the corridor outside the house. Wang Yi entered the house and changed into thinner clothes. The pier was windy, so he wore thick clothes. If he was at home, he would wear thick clothes. just hot.

Hot, this word has never appeared in winter before, Wang Yi can't imagine that there will be hot times in winter.

His family is not too poor, at least there is a yard in Wanli City. Wanli City is the county seat. The county seat is large and difficult to live in. His father already has the ability to have a small yard. Later, my brother married his sister-in-law and gave birth to a nephew. He and his grandmother were still alive. The family of seven lived in a small courtyard, which was crowded.

In winter, you need charcoal and firewood for heating. There is a mountain outside Wanli City, but there are mountain bandits and goblins on the mountain. Firewood, firewood in Wanli City is very expensive, charcoal is something that only the eldest man can afford, and where can the common people afford it, so only when the cold can't stand it, will firewood be burned.

Quilts are also expensive. Wang Yi still remembers that it was terribly cold last winter. He added two more quilts and bought more firewood.

This year is different.

Wang took a big step to the door, closed the door, and walked to the next door without locking it. Wanli City is patrolled by serious soldiers, who would dare to steal? Besides, now everyone is not poor.

Blooming, colorful and full of life.

The marinated bacon hangs on the corridor under the eaves, and there is a simple chicken coop in a corner of the yard, raising two hens, which are clucking their eggs.

Pushing open the door of the main room, the heat blowing from his face made Wang Yi shake.

"Brother Wang, close the door quickly, it's really cold outside!" Zhao Erfu, who was wearing a padded jacket outside, only wore a thick single shirt in the room, and he was serving dishes on the round table at the moment , There is a door on the wall between the right side room and the main hall, through which you can smell a burst of fragrance.

The heavy wooden door was closed by Wang Yi, blocking the cold outside. Wang Yi walked up to Zhao Erfu and touched Zhao Erfu's face with a cool hand, "Where's Grandma Zhao?"

"Hey, it's too cold. Brother Wang, go and cover your hands over the heating. You just added coal and it's burning hot." Zhao Erfu took a step back and avoided Wang Yi's hand said, "Grandma is adding charcoal to the hot pot in the kitchen. I'll be here soon."

"Charcoal? What kind of food, do you want to eat charcoal?" ? I slept here at lunch break."

"You'll know when grandma comes out. The kang has already been burned. Brother Wang, you can just go to bed after dinner. I'll call you to work when the time comes."

Zhao Erfu said, pushed open the door of the front room, and went to another room to help. Wang Yi sat on the sofa in the living room and peeled off the small kumquats on the coffee table.

.

The coal block is not expensive, and it is sold in portions, and one portion is only three cents. If someone saves, one portion can be burned for five days.

Even a child can easily earn three cents a day, so the cost of coal will not cause too much pressure on the people.

"Come here!"

As soon as Wang saw this, the two rushed up and took the pot from Grandma Zhao's hand.

"This charcoal is the charcoal of Wanli Inn, and there is no smoke at all. The master told me that two pieces of charcoal are enough, and when you get up, pour some water into it. Hurry up, dog. Put it on the table, don't hold it, pour this dish inside, boil it and you can eat it."

Grandma Zhao urged Wang Yi with a smile, Wang Yi smiled bitterly while holding the pot, "Grandma, don't call me a dog, I have a big name now, Wang Yi, you were there last time I was called a dog outside, and when my subordinates heard it, they laughed at me a lot."

"What's there to joke about? A cheap name is easy to support. I used to think that a cheap name was not good. I didn't give it to Ade. Now I regret it." Set up the table, "It's alright, you're old, grandma can't control you anymore, you can't even call it by your name, and I won't call it in the future."

"You said that again." Wang Yicai didn't believe it. The last time Grandma Zhao, the last time, it was the same rhetoric, and then she called him again.

"Hey, hey hey hey."

"I'm just happy." Zhao Erfu raised his small face, and there was a touch of red on his cheeks, which was accidentally stained with sauce, "I have a home again."

Wang Yi's chopsticks loosened for a moment, and the meat on the chopsticks fell into the pot again, and then he scolded casually, "Stupid, when you go to school in the New Year, you will definitely be scolded by your husband. "

"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid of being scolded."

Being scolded, it shows that someone cares about him, and someone still cares about him. Zhao Erfu is young, but he understands everything and everything.

In one night, his family was destroyed, and he grew up overnight. Fortunately, the world was kind to him.

Grandma Zhao reached out and touched the back of Zhao Erfu's head, thinking of her own children and other grandchildren. If they were still alive, they would have laughed silly like Zhao Erfu.

"Lian'er! Where are you, Lian'er!"

"Husband, I'm here."

In the White Crane Village, a woman wearing a white dress with a particularly charming smile walked out of the house and said to a young man with a long smile. The young man had a red hair on his head, Wearing the same white clothes as the woman and a big cloak, he hurried in from outside with a few snowflakes falling on his shoulders.

"I've found you. I'm wearing so little, so be careful and I'm sick again."

"Thank you husband for your concern." Lian'er lowered her head and blushed a little, she asked suspiciously, "Why is my husband here in such a hurry, what is the important thing?"

"I heard that Wanli City has changed in the hands of Princess Jiaoyang. Even if night falls, the city is still bright as day. There is business with Baiyun City, and it is very lively. You are Wanli City. Do you want to go back to Wanli City?"

As soon as she heard this, Lian'er knew that Baihe was having fun and wanted to go to Wanli City to play.

Back to the old place, Lian'er naturally thinks about it, especially the old place and the princess of the sun. "Whom did your husband hear about Princess Jiaoyang? Who else did you hear about Wanli City?"

"From my concubine, what is her name? It seems to be Feng'er? Yu'er? The first person you see when you come."

Lian'er remembered, "Husband, her name is Shuang'er, and she is your seventeenth concubine, my sister."

"Your human race is really strange, aren't you the only daughter in the family? Where did you get your sister? Besides, you are my wife, didn't you say before that, according to the rules of the human race, you can't spoil a concubine and destroy your wife, but also Do you want to end it from the beginning? I like you, and if you want to end it from the beginning, they can't be your sister."

In Baihe's view, a night of happiness is nothing but your wish. He doesn't like people. For him, his concubine is just a taste of the happiness in the world. The riches and honors fulfilled their request to go up the mountain, which is a fair deal.

Now that he has a wife and is willing to abide by the rules of the human race for his wife, then he will do well.

Seeing the distressed look in Baihe's eyes, Lian'er couldn't help laughing softly. Before she went to Baihe Village, she never thought that the legendary powerful monster Baihe was actually a fifteen-year-old. Liu's youth looks like a demon or a demon, different from people.

But this one is different, Lian Er likes it. Why stick to the mundane?

"The husband said yes."

"Then are you going to Wanli City with me?"

"Alright, revisiting the old place must have a different taste."
