Chapter 883 Snow Dolls
Zhou Guo looked at the old man and frowned, "Master, why do you keep running to the mountains in the snow? We have eaten venison several times this year. Why are you still hunting? There is so much delicious meat during the New Year!"
The old man said, "You are the only one who can eat this meat, and we can't? I didn't hunt it for you alone. I love to eat it, too. Can't I eat it if I like it?"
Zhou Guo shook his head. "Even if the emperor comes, you can't eat. You can't go hunting in the woods in the snow anymore. Besides, if you want to go, you have to bring at least a few people with you. Even if you want to go, I have to accompany you. Why don't you listen?"
The old man didn't say anything, but just kept scooping up the meat and coating it with sesame paste. It was delicious.
It totally goes in one ear and out the other.
The others found this a little funny.
Zhou Dacang also found it funny. He ate the tender venison and said, "It's really delicious!"
Everyone nodded, "Yes, it's delicious."
Zhou Guo said: "No matter how delicious the food is, you can't go into the mountains alone."
The old man said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I get it. You just came back and you can't be quiet for a while. Eat more. Aren't you hungry?"
Although he said that, you could tell from the smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows that he was still very happy.
Others saw through it but didn't say anything, so they didn't say anything. But if he had said something, he would have been in trouble both inside and outside.
No one cared about the master and disciple.
Li asked Zhou Dacang, "How many days can you stay this time? Can you stay until the 15th?"
The whole family looked over.
Zhou Dacang shook his head, "No, I have to leave on the first day of the new year. I won't be able to come out every month next year. I guess I have to go back to Guanshang."
Everyone was very disappointed. "We have to leave so early. Can't we stay one more day?"
Zhou Mi said, "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, so doesn't that mean we have to leave the day after tomorrow? We can only stay at home for one day?"
This is too fast!
Zhou Dacang hasn't celebrated the New Year at home for many years, and everyone wants him to stay at home for a few more days.
Zhou Dacang said helplessly: "I also want to stay at home for a few more days, but I can't leave my family in the military camp. It's great to have these few days of vacation."
Li regretted it so much that she couldn't even stop herself from falling. "If we had known earlier that we should have gone to Huaiyang for the New Year, we could have saved several days of traveling and stayed at home for several days instead of spending most of our time on the road like this."
Zhou Dacang said, "Second sister-in-law, Huaiyang is not home after all. We still have to celebrate the New Year at home. Besides, the villagers can't understand why this whole family doesn't come back for the New Year."
At this time, the Zhou family was only suitable to live quietly, just like usual, and not attract attention.
Li nodded, not quite understanding, "Okay, then let's eat some food. We're all hungry after all this night."
The fresh and tender meats were covered with sesame paste, which whetted people's appetite. Zhou Guo sighed and said, "It's always better to be at home. I was thinking on the way home that I must eat some hot noodles, but I didn't expect there was a hot pot. It's so delicious!"
Wu Ya smiled and said, "Today is the 29th, and tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Everything that needs to be prepared for the New Year has been prepared. Everything is ready, so naturally there are a lot of delicious food."
Everyone nodded.
In fact, there was no news about Zhou Guo these days, and no one in the family was not worried. Even if the delicacies were placed in front of them, they couldn't eat them. No one had ever had a good meal, and they all had no taste for food.
Now Zhou Guo is back, and the family is together. They have no worries at all. Life is getting better day by day, and naturally everything they eat tastes delicious.
I've been busy eating and haven't had a proper meal in recent days.
After the meal, it was already late at night.
Hu Zi and the others went downstairs to sleep.
Zhou Guo also returned to the room, lay on the warm kang, and sighed comfortably.
It's freezing outside, but it's warm inside. I've just eaten. There's nothing important to do tomorrow so I don't have to get up early. The whole family is together. Before I fall asleep, I'm wondering if this life is too good?
I had a dreamless night. I woke up the next day and looked at the dark sky outside. I listened to the rustling sound of snow falling. I buried my head in the quilt. Today is New Year's Eve, so I might as well give myself a day off.
I fell asleep again in a daze.
When I woke up again, it was already daybreak.
Zhou Su and the others were already up outside. From the sounds they were sweeping the snow in the yard. As they were sweeping, they started having a snowball fight. Their laughter made her unable to stay in bed for even a quarter of an hour.
After getting dressed and going out, I saw a group of people in the yard, and Zhou Dacang had also gotten up.
Everyone took a broom and swept the snow that fell last night into a pile.
This courtyard is quite large. It is the courtyard that was originally opened out of the Siheyuan, and it has been preserved intact.
In recent years, there are many wealthy people in the village.
I thought that even if I couldn’t build a house as big as Zhou’s, a three-story building would be fine, right?
As a result, the village head did not allow it, saying that it was against the rules and exceeded the regulations.
Some people were not convinced and blamed the Zhou family, asking how it was possible for the Zhou family to have four courtyards.
The head of the village snorted and said, "You still want to compete with the Zhou family? Don't you see what Zhou Dacang of the Zhou family does? He is a general. A general can build several five-yard courtyards in the village, let alone a four-yard courtyard, surrounding a big house, and no one can say anything!"
Therefore, no one said anything wrong when the Zhou family built such a large house in the village.
Zhou Guo saw this and took a shovel to shovel the snow.
It took only half an hour to clear the snow from such a big yard, and it piled up into a small hill in the corner of the yard.
Zhou Guo said with a smile: "Let's make a snowman and see who makes the best one. Whoever makes the best-looking one will get a few more golden beans as New Year's money."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone agreed.
Even Xiaohua was clamoring to make a snowman.
Wu Ya couldn't stop her, so she had to let her do it.
Everyone started making a snowman, one with a big belly and a small head.
Zhou Guo thought about it, and then came up with an idea when he saw Hei Dadan having fun nearby.
He concentrated on dressing himself up.
"Hey, what is this?!" Zhou Gu's surprised voice rang out.
Everyone raised their heads from their snow dolls.
Seeing Zhou Guo's unusual snow doll, he exclaimed: "Why is the snow doll like this? What is this going to build?"
Zhou Guo looked up and saw that their snow dolls were all the same. He laughed and said, "I want to make something different from yours. Who says a snow doll can only have one belly and one head?"
Then he went back to work.
Everyone looked at her for a while, but couldn't figure out what she was going to do, so they just lowered their heads and did their own things.
After all, Zhou Gu was old enough that even children could make snowmen, but he just made one at random and stopped.
Zhou Da Cang, however, was enjoying the pile. He looked at the one Zhou Gu had casually piled up and laughed at it, "What a pile of shit, it's all crooked, one eye is on the top of the forehead, and the other eye is at the chin. Whose good person looks like this? One part is skinny, and the other part is fat."
