Early in the morning, just after dinner, Qi Feng and Guan Qidong packed up their things and came to Canghai's living room and waited.

Canghai had just finished cleaning the ward, and as soon as he returned to the living room, he saw that the two of them had already set up a chess game and started to kill. One was shy and thought deeply, and the other frowned and was undecisive, with a very picture-like posture.

Seeing Canghai coming, Guan Qidong hung in the air with the chess piece in his hand. He was about to ask something, but Qi Feng spoke.

"I said Brother Guan, you are leaving now. I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Qi Feng complained, and when he looked up, he saw Cang Hai coming back, he immediately asked, "Are you leaving?"

"Yes, go?" Guan Qidong also asked.

Cang Hai was confused, so he scratched his head: "Why are you playing chess and ask me if I want to leave? I know if you want to leave."

Guan Qidong immediately said: "We are not talking about whether to play chess or not, but about whether we are going to go to winter swimming now. When we came back yesterday, Yueyue told us that she dug a very large pool for us to make it comfortable to swim!"

Cang Hai did not think about exposing Qi Yue's behavior of robbing merits, but instead said to the two of them: "What are you anxious about? The things are not ready yet! Let's leave when you are ready."

"What are you going to prepare for? Isn't it just a pair of swimming trunks?" Qi Feng said.

"If someone brings these, we can't show our characteristics. I'm going to bring some other things. You two are waiting to see! Even if they are envious of them, they won't take them to play!" Cang Hai said mysteriously.

Seeing Cang Hai's appearance, Qi Feng smiled and said to Guan Qidong, "Then let's continue playing chess?"

"Let's get off, what else can we do? The two old guys can neither get a car nor drive a car. We can only listen to others' mercy!" Guan Qidong smiled and dropped the chess piece in his hand.

Qi Feng said: "You are an old guy. I am so talented that I am not like you in middle age! We have a generation gap!"

"It's just seven or eight years younger than me," Guan Qidong said dissatisfiedly.

Qi Feng said: "Even if you are a month younger, you will be younger, let alone seven or eight years old! I am young and strong now, and I am different from you."

"Let's not say this, maybe who is ahead?" Guan Qidongdao.

Qi Feng said: "Then let's go and see!"

"Let's just go and see! General! Alas, I don't know when you will go, but I know that your chess is a dead end," Guan Qidong said proudly.

Through the conversation between the two, Cang Hai knew that these two people had become good friends. Although they were a little older, the generation gap in their era was not as big as that in the future. Unlike later, three years later, there was a generation gap, and technology was developing rapidly. Their generation was about ten years apart and would have many common childhood memories to talk about.

Qi Feng wrinkled his face and looked at it for a while, but he didn't find any way to break the situation. So he reached out and threw the chess piece in his hand: "You're going to take advantage of this, and I won when I'm not paying attention!"

"Is it a pity?" Guan Qidong showed a disdainful expression on his face, and he was posing as a chess piece while fighting with Qi Feng.

Qi Feng was about to retort when he suddenly saw Cang Hai standing next to him, so he reached out and slapped the table: "Hey, you are not going to prepare yet, what are you watching for chess!"

Guan Qidong said: "If you embarrass yourself, don't vent your anger on your children. The old guy is not at all cunning. We are going to collapse in front of us at this age without changing our faces!"

"I'm a few years younger than you. You're an old guy, I'm not!" Qi Feng said.

"How old are you! You are still painted with green onions - pretend to be tender!"

"No matter how old I am, I am several years younger than you. You are old and I am middle-aged!" Qi Feng grabbed his little Guan Qidong tightly and transferred him to the past to sprinkle salt on Guan Qidong's heart.

When Cang Hai saw that the two old men were not sure that they could perform the full martial arts immediately, he immediately turned his face and applied oil to the soles of his feet, slipping away before they pulled themselves as referees.

Back in the kitchen, Canghai picked up Lanzi and went to the greenhouse. After picking some vegetables, she washed the bait and cut it into small pieces, placed it on a plate, and then put it in a picnic basket. As for meat, it is naturally impossible to lose it. In short, a whole picnic basket was filled with a full load, and Canghai was ready to finish it.

At this time, Shi Wei had already sent the two children and Mengmeng to the east end of the village together. Since Qi Feng and Guan Qidong and the old couple, Shi Zhenbang and Wang Zhenzhen moved to the east end of the village to join in the fun. It was not enough to stay with their daughter and son-in-law. The old man liked the fun at this time, and for them there was nothing more lively than being with a group of people of their age.

As for why only two middle-aged people came today, it was because Shi Zhenbang said he was unwilling to go to the lake in winter. He thought life was more important, and it would be better to stay in the heating room at home honestly.

"I'll go and catch a livestock?" Shi Wei went into the house and saw that everything was ready, so she asked.

Canghai said: "I'll go, you don't know which one is half set."

"The ugly donkey is not here?" Shi Wei asked in surprise.

Canghai replied with a smile: "With Qi Yue, you think the ugly donkey can be our turn? She has been trapped by her, and it was Ping An who helped me in the morning!"

"That's the same!" Shi Wei nodded with a smile.

Cang Hai wiped his hands, picked up his coat and put it on his body, and walked towards the cattle shed. When he arrived at the cattle shed, he found that not only the few horses were gone, but even the original old mules were gone.

It is obvious that they were either taken away by Qi Yue and the people, or they were trapped by the villagers. What is more likely that the villagers went to the market or went to the relatives.

Now there are only pregnant mares left in the cattle shed, and the foals that were not available for just one year.

It cannot be said that it is a foal, a mixed donkey and horse, the mother is a Western pack horse, the father is an ugly donkey, a strange donkey head and horse body, and a small ear, which looks very inconsistent.

Standing in the livestock railing, Cang Hai thought for a while, and didn't know if it was better to use a mare or a small mule. Use a mare. Now the mares have second children, so it seems bad to use a small mule. The little mule is only one year old. Although it is still good, it seems a bit inappropriate to use it now.

But soon Cang Hai understood a truth, that is, if he stood here to pretend to be the Virgin, he might not have to pull the sledge in person in the end!

When he thought of this, it was very good to decide. Canghai chose the strongest mule from the livestock railing, and opened the door and walked in with his bridle.

The mule was very happy to see Canghai coming in, but when she saw the bridle in Canghai's hand, she was immediately a little unhappy. She kept hiding back and hid her ugly head, just because she didn't want Canghai to put the bridle on his head.

"What are you doing? Sooner or later, there will be such a day!" Cang Hai scolded the mule.

Originally, Canghai wanted to tell the mule with politeness and emotion, but after chatting for a while, Shi Wei's voice came from his ears.

Shi Wei was standing on the platform at this time, holding her hands in front of her mouth and shouting loudly: "Canghai, have you put on the car?"

"Okay, okay!" Cang Hai replied, raised his foot directly and kicked the ugly mule's butt: "Hurry up, don't waste time!"

The ugly mule could not have thought that the style suddenly changed. She turned around and looked at Canghai, a donkey, and her face was full of melancholy.

"What are you doing? Shooting a bitter scene! I told you that your acting skills can't fool me, so you are just a little better than the young and handsome guys on TV! It's still a thousand miles away from Xiaojinren. Hurry up, I have no time anymore, haven't heard anyone called me just now?"

Cang Hai said as he raised his feet and prepared to kick the ugly mule.

The ugly mule can't do it! It can resist others, or even make things easier, and it can be discouraged or something.

It dared not to Canghai. It did not have the courage to resist, and there was no sense of resistance at all, let alone kicking someone. So it had to stand honestly, standing still with reluctance, and its two big eyes were tearful, as if I was very aggrieved.

Waiting for Canghai to put the bridle on the ugly mule, the dejected ugly mule was then pulled out by Canghai and put on a sledge.

He returned to the door with the ugly mule. When Shi Wei saw Cang Hai coming back with a small mule, she asked, "Why do you want to get a small mule? What about other things?"

"If there is something else, why should I do it? It's either a mare or this, how do you ask me to choose? It's not a lot of effort. There are only a few of us, and it's okay to pull it up, and it won't hurt its physical development," Cang Hai said.

Since it's all like this, don't say anything, just move things on the sledge. Wait until the things are done, Shi Wei called the two out.

"Hey, why did you get such a small mule to pull the sled? There are no available animals in the village?" Qi Feng asked curiously.

Canghai had to explain the matter again.

The two old men got on the sledge and looked at the small wooden boxes on the sledge: "What is this?"

Canghai smiled mysteriously: "You will know later!"

Say! Drive!

With a shout, the ugly mule pulled the sled and started jogging. He walked out of the village along the downhill winding road and came to the small riverbed at the entrance of the village, and ran along the small riverbed towards the lake.

As they ran, the clown mule was intrigued and accelerated unconsciously, causing the mane to flutter in the wind. In the past, he followed their mother to pull the cart, but when did he spread his four hooves? Now, although he was pulling a sled when he ran, the feeling was still very different from before.

Guan Qidong opened his mouth when he saw this and said, "This mule seems to be more stable than sitting on a horse when we came!"

Shi Wei nodded: "Well, you have to be steady. If I hadn't seen the little mule, I would have thought it was an ugly donkey pulling a cart."

Canghai also felt that the clown mule's footwork was worse than that of an ugly donkey, but because of its height advantage, it was a little taller than its father's ugly donkey, so all strides were naturally larger.

In other words, the ugly mule naturally has less ups and downs at the same distance, so the sledge is relatively smoother than the ugly donkey, that is, it is more comfortable and more stable.

However, there are advantages and disadvantages, that is, the power of this mule does not seem to fully inherit the invincible power of the ugly donkey. Although it is better than the mother of a pack horse, it is more than the ugly donkey. This can be clearly felt from the slope just now.

But in general, this thing is still a successful breeding variety.

As the ugly mule approached the lake quickly, bursts of laughter came from Canghai and others' ears. As they got closer, the laughter became louder and louder.

While waiting for the sledge to turn over the foot of the mountain and facing the lake, Canghai saw a group of colorful women, and naked men running on the ice, and some people playing in the water.

"It seems that it's not very cold!" Guan Qidong was a little eager to try.

With the emergence of Canghai's sled, the originally playful people slowly became quiet, because these people either knew Qi Yue or Guan Qidong. For example, Gu Han was directly a student of Guan Qidong. He had always been a little afraid of Guan Qidong. He always felt that the old man was too serious and failed the exam, which made him take two or three of the retrieval exams.

The pools Qi Yue dug for Canghai were very big, almost as big as Canghai required, but they were not close to the pool where Qi Yue and his group played. They looked almost seventy or eighty meters long. You could tell at a glance that they were dug up.

Okay, these people also know how to respect the elderly and helped build two pretty good ice and ice houses. They could change clothes at a glance.
