Chapter 46 Going to the market (1)
Lu Xiaoxiao looked out through the window and found that the yard was covered with heavy snow and it was a vast expanse of whiteness. She thought that yesterday she wanted to build a snowman today, and almost forgot about it.
Lu Xiaoxiao went to the bedroom and put on a down jacket and down pants, a pair of thick cotton shoes and cotton gloves, and wrapped herself tightly so that she would not be frozen.
Lu Xiaoxiao opened the door of the main room and a gust of cool wind blew in. Her neck shrank from the cold, and she realized that she forgot to wear the scarf, so she went back to the house and put the scarf on before going to the yard.
Lu Xiaoxiao saw the depth of her footprints on the ground, probably three to four centimeters deep. It seems that the snow last night was really not small.
Lu Xiaoxiao grabbed a handful of snow and rolled it into a ball, then rolled it on the snow. After a while, a basketball-sized snowball was rolled. Let this be the head of the snowman.
Lu Xiaoxiao rubbed out a small snowball with her hands again, and rolled it on the ground. This time the snowball was three times the size of the first one. She rolled the snowball to the center of the yard, and hugged the small snowball on the ground. Get it up and install it on the big snowball, so that the snowman's frame is ready.
Lu Xiaoxiao went back to the house and found two pieces of charcoal from the stove to make eyes for the snowman, then found two branches from the firewood pile to make hands for the snowman, and finally took out a carrot from the space to make a nose for the snowman.
Lu Xiaoxiao admired the snowman she built and thought it was quite beautiful. When she was about to build another one, she heard someone knocking on the door of the yard. She mentally slandered who would come to her in this snowy day.
When Lu Xiaoxiao opened the courtyard door, she saw Aunt Caihua standing in front of her house, so she hurriedly invited her into the courtyard.
Aunt Caihua saw the little snowman in the yard and said with a smile: "This snowman is round and fat, which is very festive. It means that your children are thinking about making this. If I let the old woman make it, I won't be able to stand the cold."
Lu Xiaoxiao smiled when she heard Aunt Caihua's words, and then she invited Aunt Caihua to sit on the kang in the main room before replying: "I also stayed in the room for a long time and got bored, seeing the thick snow outside Thinking of building a snowman to play with."
After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she turned around and went to the kitchen, took an enamel cup, added some white sugar into the cup, picked up the kettle and poured hot water, then brought it to Aunt Caihua and said, "Drink a cup of hot water to warm up your body first."
Aunt Caihua picked up the cup and took a sip. The water was so sweet that there must be a lot of sugar in it. She felt that it was appropriate, and she said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "You child, we are so wasteful. How can I drink such precious sugar water? , just drink some plain water, and you cant do this next time.
After hearing what Aunt Caihua said, Lu Xiaoxiao just smiled at her and didn't answer.
Aunt Caihua saw Lu Xiaoxiao's expression and said helplessly: "You are a ghost, don't think I don't know what you think."
Seeing that Aunt Cauliflower ruthlessly exposed her little scheme, Lu Xiaoxiao felt her face was a little hot, so she quickly changed the topic and said, "Auntie, what is the purpose of you coming to see me today?"
"I almost forgot if you didn't remind me. I came here today to explain to you that tomorrow people from several nearby villages will gather for a small market. I'm here to ask you if you can go tomorrow."
Lu Xiaoxiao was surprised when she heard Aunt Caihua's words, so she quickly asked: "Isn't private sales not allowed now? How can we still open a market?"
"Hey, isn't there no way to do it? Now everyone's home is in short supply of many things, and there is no ticket and they can't buy things. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Seeing this, the above allows this kind of collection to let everyone exchange what they lack. Its only this time, and it wont work in the future, so Im here to ask you if you want to go.
