Chapter 160
"I know." Zhang Jiling impatiently put the cold-resistance talisman into the cotton coat. Zhang Jiling's cotton coat was an old piece of clothing, or an old piece given by his relative. A hole was broken and Xiao Daidi sewed it.
Nowadays, few children in rural areas wear patched clothes. Xiao Daidi embroidered a flower with a piece of cloth, making the clothes look less like they had patches. However, the clothes are originally cheaper street stalls, and they are not down, but asbestos, and the warmth effect is very poor.
Therefore, even after wearing a cotton coat, Zhang Jiling still felt very cold. Her small lips were black and her hands were covered with frostbite, and her nose kept jumping out of her nostrils. Zhang Jiling liked to clean and kept wiped clean with rough toilet paper. The inferior toilet paper was very rough, making her nose hurt.
Zhang Jiling put on the cotton coat with the cold talisman, and after a while, he felt warm and winter seemed to be driven away.
"Huh? It's so warm! The cold-resistance talisman is really effective!" Zhang Jiling said happily.
When your body is warm, the excess heat will spread to all parts of your body. Your feet, which are a little numb to the cold, will gradually become hot. You can warm up without stomping your feet hard. It really feels like roasting fire.
In winter, when the fire is roasted, it always comes to the front and cannot be roasted at the back. The children want to stay in the fire cabinet and cover their whole body. However, the cold seems to be everywhere, and they cannot completely block the cold wherever they hide.
Zhang Jiling was surprised that his younger brother gave her the cold talisman, but did not put it in his own clothes. He asked quickly: "Brother, why don't you put the cold talisman in your own clothes?"
"I have practiced the body protection technique, and even evil energy cannot enter the body. What is a little cold energy?" Zhang Jidong said.
"Then why are you trembling?" Zhang Jiling said.
"The body protection technique is to shake your body from time to time, and you will soon stop feeling cold." Zhang Jidong said.
Zhang Jidong would not say that he had not yet mastered his kung fu. Although he had a dream at night, the old Taoist priest taught him the authentic body protection technique, and Zhang Jidong also found the trick. However, the body protection technique can be practiced from time to time. If the body protection technique fails, Zhang Jidong's body is not much stronger than that of ordinary people.
Luo Chengxuan did not allow Zhang Jidong to use the cold talisman for himself, so Zhang Jidong could only hold on to the cold. But he secretly hid the cold talisman from the clothes he gave to his grandparents.
As the Chinese New Year is getting closer, more and more people are getting married and having weddings in the village. Every day, you can hear the sound of firecrackers everywhere.
Zhang Dashuan is busy preparing various supplies every day. Entering the fire and raising the beam is one of the major events in his life for people in his country. It is as important as getting married and having children. Such happy events are naturally to be done.
Zhang Dashuan was about to kill a pig, so he called Zhou Ganquan over to help kill the pig.
Zhou Ganquan stood at the door of the pig pen and looked inside: "This pig must weigh two or three hundred kilograms, right? Uncle Dashuan, is it still going to sell some such a big pig? Half a pig on the beam should be enough."
"I won't sell it anymore. Half a pig on the beam is enough, but it's still time for the New Year!" Zhang Dashuan said.
"Then your family will have a lively year. I heard that the Hongbing and his wife will come back for the Chinese New Year today. The couple has been out for so many years and should have made a lot of money." Zhou Ganquan said.
"I don't expect them to make a fortune. If I can come back, I'm looking forward to it." Zhang Dashuan said.
"That's right. Now uncle earns more money at home than young people working outside." Zhou Ganquan said.
Zhang Jiling and Zhang Jidong were very happy when they killed pigs. They would eat meat after killing them. Grandpa agreed that this pig would not sell meat. Except for the ones left to use, the rest were smoked with bacon. So much meat is enough for the whole family to eat for a long time. This year is really going to have a lively New Year.
Zhang Dashuan had already made an appointment with Zhang Hongyu. The two brothers and sisters of Zhang Hongyu and Zhang Hongbing happened to enter the house on the day of killing pigs. When Zhang Jidong and Zhang Jiling were sitting in front of the firewood stove and cooking a large pot of boiling water, Zhang Hongbing and Zhang Hongyu and Zhang Hongyu entered the house with lots of things.
"Dad!" Zhang Hongbing walked to Zhang Dashuan, a little nervous.
"You bastard! You bastard!" Zhang Dashuan looked at Zhang Hongbing and kept repeating this sentence.
Xiao Daidi also stopped her work, rushed to Zhang Hongbing, and patted Zhang Hongbing a few times: "Where have you been going for so many years? Where have you gone?"
Liu Chuntao looked at the two siblings who were burning fire. The things in his hands fell to the ground, and some candies rolled out of the bag.
"Ji...Ji Ling, Ji Dong." Liu Chuntao was in tears.
Zhang Jiling and Zhang Jidong were a little confused. When Liu Chuntao and Zhang Hongbing left them, they were too young. Their impression of their parents was completely fantasized by them. They were not as good as real parents at all. The two siblings looked at Liu Chuntao blankly, feeling a little familiar, but they were so strange.
"Silly kid, call me mom! This is mom!" Zhang Hongyu walked over and pushed the two siblings.
The two siblings were a little afraid of being in front of the "stranger", and they couldn't even say "mom".
"Silly boy, have you been looking forward to your mother coming back? Now that your mother is back, why don't you call me?" Zhang Hongyu said.
Liu Chuntao hurriedly picked up the candy that fell to the ground and handed it over sadly.
"Jiling, Jidong, mom has bought you a lot of candies, you can eat them quickly." Liu Chuntao stuffed the candy into Zhang Jidong and Zhang Jiling's two siblings.
Zhang Jiling and Zhang Jidong dodged and did not take the candies they usually greedy for. The mother was too unfamiliar and was too far from their fantasy mothers. It was difficult for them to overlap their real mothers with their fantasies at once.
"Ji Dong, Ji Ling." Zhang Hongbing walked over and wanted to pick up his children.
But Zhang Jidong and Zhang Jiling quickly ran into the room, slammed the door, and then secretly opened a crack, looking out in horror.
"Who told you not to come back for so many years? Now the children dare not recognize you. Don't worry. Let the children adapt first. When they get familiar with you, they will recognize you." Zhang Hongyu said.
"Then I'll go and help first." Zhang Hongbing hurriedly went to help kill the pig.
However, Liu Chuntao really wanted to stay with his daughter and son, so he took out all the new clothes, toys and snacks he bought for the two siblings when he came back.
"Jidong, do you think this is really a mom and dad?" Zhang Jiling asked.
"How can I know?" Zhang Jidong stared at the ate, thinking in his heart whether he would admit it first.
