Chapter Fourteen The Freya Family
There is no hotel in the town of Covis, so Zhao Huasheng and his group lived in the homes of local residents. Zhao Huasheng lives in the best room conditions in the town. This family has an elderly couple, their daughter, and their granddaughter. It was a cute little girl who was only seven years old.
Perhaps because there were no foreign guests in the town of Covis for too long, Zhao Huasheng and his group were warm and grandly entertained. Almost all the residents of the town came out to welcome the guests. Since the morning, many people were busy, and many wines and food began to gather, and after a moment, they emitted an attractive fragrance.
Zhao Huasheng woke up in the morning sun. The Arctic was in the extreme daylight, and the night in the town of Cowis was extremely short. The sun rose again in less than two hours after it set. Zhao Huasheng looked at the time and found that it was already eight o'clock in the morning, so he got up from the bed.
In this well-insulated room, Zhao Huasheng did not feel any cold. The fatigue after the long journey also made Zhao Huasheng sleep for a good night that he had not had for a long time last night. When he woke up in the early morning, Zhao Huasheng felt much better.
A voice suddenly came from outside the room, which was a young little girl's voice: "Mom, can I go into my uncle's room to wake him up?"
A young woman's voice also came in: "Freia, uncle is a patient, he is sleeping, you shouldn't bother him."
"But I want to give the gift to my uncle as soon as possible." The little girl said.
"Go and prepare breakfast first, and the uncle will wake up later."
At this moment, Zhao Huasheng opened the door of the room, looked at Freia and his daughter who were talking, and greeted them with a smile: "Good morning. Freia, good morning."
"Uncle, you're awake." The little girl ran over cheering, "Uncle, I've prepared a gift for you."
Freia was holding a plasticine in her hand that seemed to be a reindeer, but the production skills were really bad. Not only was the color matching wrong, but the appearance was extremely ugly, and she looked like a black donkey.
The little girl stood on tiptoe with hope, held the thing in her hand, and presented it to Zhao Huasheng. Her mother, the young woman, was a little embarrassed, but she still said to Zhao Huasheng: "Mr. Zhao, this was done by Freia for a little sleep time. I hope you like it."
Zhao Huasheng held the thing in his hand in surprise, tossed and watched it carefully, while marveling: "Freia, did you really make this? Was it given to me? It's so beautiful, I like it very much."
The little girl finally showed a relieved smile on her face. Seeing that Zhao Huasheng liked the gifts she made by herself, it seemed that she was happier than Zhao Huasheng.
"You give me such a precious gift, and I have a gift for you." Zhao Huasheng touched Freya's little head, and took out a pearl necklace from his pocket and hung it around Freya's neck.
"I like it very much, uncle, hug." Freia opened her arms, and Zhao Huasheng hugged Freia. Seeing this scene, the elderly couple and young women all laughed together.
After joking for a while, the few people came to the dining table together. Although it was just breakfast, the preparation was very rich. The unique dishes made Zhao Huasheng have a great appetite and he couldn't eat them until he couldn't eat them.
"At noon today, our town will have a welcome lunch for guests. If Mr. Zhao, please come and attend, please." After breakfast, the young woman said to Zhao Huasheng.
Zhao Huasheng nodded: "Thank you for your hospitality, I will definitely attend."
"Mr. Zhao, are you from a very far place?" asked the young woman.
"Yes, it's very far away." Zhao Huasheng said, "I'm from Hope City, and it will take several hours to get here by plane."
"Uncle, where is the city of hope?" Freia asked.
"Hope City is here in the south... It is the capital city of our Human Alliance, with many people living there." Zhao Huasheng touched Freya's head and said warmly.
"I heard from the town's radio that our capital will move to Equator City in the future. It also said that the equatorial project is being carried out there, and the young people in our town have basically gone there. Now there are basically only some old people left in the town."
"Then why don't you go to Equator City? You can live well there." Zhao Huasheng asked.
The young woman shook her head: "Don't both dad and mom want to go, I want to stay here with them. But I don't know why recently, the weather is getting colder and colder, or in summer, the ice is so thick. When we go down the net to fish, we have to run far away."
"Uncle, do you know why the weather is so cold?" Freia said. "Mom has forbidden me to go out and play."
Zhao Huasheng felt ache in his heart, but his face still had a smile: "That's the sun resting. When the sun rests well, the weather will be warm."
"I always feel like something is different." The young woman said sadly, "The weather is getting colder and fishing is getting harder. If the weather gets colder, we will also go to Equator City."
After hearing the young woman say this, Zhao Huasheng immediately relaxed, "It's really getting colder here. Equator City is very warm and the government has such good policies. You don't have to worry about life when you arrive in Equator City."
"Maybe." The woman nodded.
"Lovesha, we are going to set off." Outside, the voice of an old man came over. Hearing the shout, the woman stood up and said to Zhao Huasheng: "Mr. Zhao, we want to go out first. If you are dull at home, you can go to the church in the center of the town where lunch is being prepared, which is very lively."
"Where are you going?" Zhao Huasheng asked.
"Oh, let's go and collect the net. I got off the net yesterday, and today I'll probably get some harvest. When we bring the fish back, we can eat delicious grilled fish at noon." The woman smiled, "Freia, go to Aunt Vivika's place first, go play with Little John for a while, and we'll be back soon."
"Are you going to take a sled?" Freia asked.
"certainly."
"I want to go too! I want to go too! No, I want to go!" As soon as he heard the word "sled", Freia immediately became excited. The woman hesitated for a moment and finally agreed.
The woman went back to the room and put on thick clothes, and wrapped Freia into a ball by the way. At this time, shouts from outside came in again. The woman smiled apologetically at Zhao Huasheng, then walked out of the house with Freia in her arms. Zhao Huasheng also followed him to the door and saw a sled at the door that had already parked there, and seven or eight big dogs holding the sled were panting.
The old couple had already sat on the sled. The woman hugged Freia and also sat on the sled. Freia turned her head hard and waved to Zhao Huasheng: "Uncle, wait for our hairtail to come back to eat for you!"
"Okay, thank you Freia." Zhao Huasheng nodded with a smile, and then said to the woman: "The weather is not good, you should be careful."
"Thank you, go back to your room to rest first, we will be back soon." The woman waved to Zhao Huasheng, and the old man gave the order. The seven or eight big dogs holding the sled immediately ran and disappeared after a while.
Zhao Huasheng returned to his room, put on heavy cold clothes, and walked out of the yard. The weather was still very cold, but in this small town that was like a paradise, there was a festive smell everywhere. Everyone he met on the road had a sincere smile, and his words were so warm. Zhao Huasheng's mood improved unknowingly.
When they walked to the church door, Zhao Huasheng discovered that Meng Zhuo and the medical and safety team were all here. At this moment, they were preparing lunch with the residents of the town. Even Meng Zhuo, who had always been serious, took action himself.
Seeing Zhao Huasheng coming, Li Wei nodded slightly at him and did not say anything. Zhao Huasheng also smiled back, then walked over, and became busy together.
This busyness has passed for more than two hours. It was almost noon, but the sky became dark without realizing it. After a while, snowflakes fell down again.
"It's snowing." An old man sighed: "The weather is getting weirder."
Zhao Huasheng felt a vague premonition in his heart. Zhao Huasheng walked up and said to the old man: "Freya's family went out to close the Internet. Will they have any surprises in this weather?"
The old man asked, “How long have they been there?”
"It's been about three hours." Zhao Huasheng said solemnly.
The old man frowned and turned to a middle-aged man in his fifties and said, "Jense, go find Freya's family and see why they haven't come back yet."
The middle-aged man named Jens agreed and turned and left. The old man comforted Zhao Huasheng: "Freia's grandfather is the best fisherman in our town. He will definitely not be in trouble. You don't have to worry. It's cold outside, so come to the church to avoid the wind and snow first."
Zhao Huasheng walked into the church with a little uneasy, but couldn't sit still. Zhao Huasheng came to the church door again and found that the snow seemed to be getting heavier and the cold wind began to whimper.
An uneasy mood began to spread in the church. Zhao Huasheng was restless and finally couldn't bear it anymore. He came to the old man again and said, "The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and the Freya family has not come back. I am worried about any accidents they will have. I think we should set out to find them."
The old man pondered for a while and finally nodded: "Okay, let's go find them."

It's another weekend, and it's a new week after 12 o'clock...
This week, Rainbow originally planned to make it to the new book list on the homepage, but unfortunately it didn't make it, but it doesn't matter. After all, we don't have any website recommendations, so it's normal to compete for those who have recommendations.
But we have recommended websites this week, so after 12 pm, in the new week, Rainbow plans to make another new book list. If it can be on the new book list on the homepage, Rainbow will update two more chapters outside the chapter in the early morning, which is a total of three chapters~
Chapter completed!
