From the original day and night to the current "meeting around every day", the relationship between the two is still the same as before, without the excitement after reunited after a long time, nor without the rusty that has not been seen for a long time.

Xu Ning was satisfied, and Xie Zheng was naturally relieved.

In the following several exams, Xu Ning's grades were firmly ranked first in the class and top ten in the grade. Zhang Meng gradually improved slightly under the guidance of Xu Ning. In the latest exam, she finally entered the top ten in the class, which made Teacher Xue, who had never seen a smile, look a hint of relief.

Autumn goes and winter comes, fallen leaves leave the branches, and many trees have only bare branches, and it is getting closer and closer to the Spring Festival this year.

The little dumpling at home has grown a lot, and she is babbling all day long in his crib, making the originally peaceful Xu family look particularly lively.

This year, the Xu family only raised one pig, and they did not intend to sell it. They just waited to kill it and split the pig with the next door.

After eating pork raised by the old lady, Grandma Gao always felt that the taste was not good. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but she often came to Xu’s house to visit. She saw Yu Chunhua feeding pigs too many times, and she ate them all the time, and it was not special. Why is this meat very delicious?

I don’t understand Gao Xiulan and didn’t think deeply. It only attributes it to the exquisiteness of raising pigs in spring flowers.

As time entered the twelfth lunar month, all households began to work hard. Qin Zhao still bought a lot of things this year and asked someone to bring them from the Demon City. There were new clothes for the family of five, especially the clothes for the small dumplings. Qin Zhao bought six or seven sets directly, without the duplicate ones. It made the old lady and daughter-in-law laugh and cry.

These little clothes cannot be worn for him now, and he can only wait until this little guy can walk for the full moon. Now he is still wearing small clothes hand-sewn with fabric carefully selected by the old lady, which is soft and comfortable.

In the final exam of the first half of the third year of junior high school, Xu Ning was still the first in the class, but his academic year scores rose to fourth in the grade, which made Teacher Xue like it very much. When he saw the transcript in the office, the lines on his face became particularly soft.

Hearing Zhou Yan’s praise next to him, Teacher Xue felt that he could have a good New Year this year.

The winter vacation is approaching, and Xu Ning delivers a bowl of vegetable balls to the next door at noon.

"Grandpa Jiang, has Brother Zheng not come back yet?"

"He will be taking the college entrance examination next year, and it's not a few months away from the exam, so it will be a bit late this year, about twenty-six." Grandpa Jiang chopped firewood in the courtyard, "Ning Ning has achieved good results this year."

"Well, it's all my things that Brother Zheng usually teaches me, and I want to go to the university in the imperial capital in the future."

"Then the relationship is good. I heard from Xiao Zheng that you want to study medicine and have a promising future." Grandpa Jiang gave Xu Ning a thumbs up, "In the future, grandpa will go to see you for treatment when he is sick."

"Then I hope there will never be a chance. Grandma Gao and you must be healthy."

After chatting with the old man for a few words, Xu Ning went back with a little disappointment. However, thinking that at least he could have the New Year's Eve dinner together, Xu Ning felt a little relieved.

On the day of Xie Zheng's holiday, the cold storm was raging, and thick snow was piled up on the ground. Because no one cleaned it up, it was difficult to walk.

There was no way to ride a bicycle, so he could only put things on the bicycle with his classmates in the same village and pushed the car to rush home.

In such weather, the bus is also stopped, with visibility and attitude, and the snow is too thick.

Many of the classmates were picked up by elders at home, but Xie Zheng did not call home because of the two elderly people at home, at least there was someone talking on the way.

"We are really unlucky. It's just that the snow is so heavy on holiday, at least not windy."

"There's nothing to do about this." Even though Xie Zheng was a tough guy, he couldn't withstand the changes in the weather.

In fact, it is not too cold when it snows simply, but if the bitter northwest wind is added, it will make people unable to withstand it. No matter how much you wear, the cold wind that whistles like a knife will penetrate into your body.

It usually takes more than forty minutes to ride a bicycle quickly, but now it has to walk for at least two hours.

However, even so, I can't resist the urgency and desire to go home. No matter how difficult it is on the road, everything will be fine when I get home.

If it is cold, you can think of the hot kang.

"Xie Zheng, where are you going to take the exam?"

"Imperial capital, I want to join the army." Xie Zheng said.

"I'm not interested in being a soldier, I just want to go to a university, and find a job with a diploma in the future. I almost haven't been able to endure the past six months. I think I'm going to have a college entrance examination in just a few months after the New Year, and I feel like I'm going to be in a big way." His study was not good in the class, and at most it was at a medium level, let alone the entire school year.

But Xie Zheng is different. He has always been the first in the grade. He is unwilling to accept this. He suspects that his mind is different from Xie Zheng and the structure inside it.

The two of them chatted tremblingly, and continued to tremble and rush.

From 1:30 pm to 4 o'clock, I didn't go home. The main reason was that it was too difficult to walk on the road. In the end, my shoes were soaked, and my feet simply lost consciousness, and I just walked so numbly.

When he got home, Gao Xiulan was almost frightened. He quickly got a basin of water for Xie Zheng to soak in it. At first it was cold water, and then poured hot water into it bit by bit to make his feet gradually adapt. During this period, he kept rubbing it. It took more than half an hour before Xie Zheng's feet recovered.

"Tell me, there is so much snow outside, can you come back tomorrow? You have to rush back in the snow." Gao Xiulan muttered for half an hour, and Xie Zheng could only keep pleasing and laughing, and did not dare to refute a word.

"Grandma, I can't stay in school today for lunch, so I just want to come back early to reunite with you. Don't be angry anymore."

"Shut up." Gao Xiulan glared at her grandson angrily. She held her feet before and almost jumped up coldly. She was just two pieces of ice. It was also a blessing for the young man to be very angry, otherwise he would have been frozen?

Even if you want to come back and put a plastic bag on your feet, at least you don’t have to be wet. It would be a blessing if you didn’t freeze your shoes into ice.

Xie Zheng closed his mouth tactfully and stuffed his feet under the quilt to warm it.

After dinner, Gao Xiulan went out and probably went to chat next door.

Then Xu Ning came over slowly, and when he entered the room, he saw Xie Zheng, and sighed, "You almost made Grandma Gao angry."

"Why, Ningning is here to talk to me too?" Xie Zheng patted the seat beside him and asked Xu Ning to sit over, "Are you little girl worried about me?"

"I will definitely worry about you. What if my feet are frozen." She looked at the hippie-smiling Xie Zheng helplessly, took out a bottle of hand cream from her pocket, and "stretched her feet out."

How could Xie Zheng ask Xu Ning's white and tender little hand to apply it to him? He snatched it directly, dug out some of it himself, and applied his feet.

"I am a big man, so I don't have to be so particular. Besides, I've been relieved now, it's okay."

"You are not a doctor, how can you know it's okay? Don't do this again in the future, let your family worry." He turned around and fed him a basin of water, and asked Xie Zheng to wash his hands.

Looking at the virtuous little girl, he really wished he could hold it in his arms and rub it.

This year's Spring Festival is the 12th. Because they are about to face the college entrance examination, they have to return to school on the eighth day of the lunar month. They don't have much time to stay at home and still have a break on Sundays.

The college entrance examination was in June, so there were only four months left to work hard. He was actually at ease, but he had to rely on time at school.

"You are going to study medicine. I will leave my health to you in the future." Xie Zheng said with a smile.

Thanks to the fact that my grandparents were not at home, the old man probably went to chat with other old men in the village.

Xu Ning nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, come to me if you are sick."

"As long as you don't refuse me." Xie Zheng's heart trembled. He thought about what to do when he went to Fanlulu's place. He was sick now, but he didn't dare to ask the little girl in front of him to treat him, so he could only continue to endure it first.

Xu Ning didn't notice that the brother next door in front of him was holding a scarlet-eyed wolf in his heart, "No."

Xie Zheng looked out the window, then looked at the closed door, thinking that he should be able to try it!?

"Why didn't Ningning take off her shoes and go to the kang to warm up?" Gao Xiulan came in outside with a bamboo basket. The peanuts she peeled inside were prepared to be fried in the pot tomorrow and kept for the New Year.

Brother Zheng: "..." You are really my dear grandma.

"No need, I'm going home now." Xu Ning said to Xie Zheng with a gentle voice: "Brother Zheng should not forget to run outside these days, so that his feet can be slow in the house."

"I understand, it's snowy outside, so be careful when walking." Xie Zheng was almost bleeding inside, but the surface was still calm.

"good."

Gao Xiulan didn't know that she had ruined the beautiful thoughts in her grandson's mind. She grabbed a handful of peanuts and stuffed them to Xie Zheng. She also held one handful and sat cross-legged on the kang watching TV.

"This year, let's go to the next door to watch. The day after tomorrow, you will slaughter pigs at grandma's house and stew the pig bones for you during the Chinese New Year."

"Yes!" He nodded depressedly.

Gao Xiulan glanced at her grandson and said, "If you are sleepy? If you are sleepy, go to bed quickly. I stuffed three warm water bags into your quilt and put two under your feet."

"...I know, then I'll go to bed." Xie Zheng rushed to his house, not knowing if he wanted to do something before going to bed.

The Xu family originally wanted to kill pigs at Twenty-six, but a heavy snowfall could only delay it.

Twenty-eight On that morning, the pig was slaughtered.

Then I guess I was irritated by the miserable noise before the pig died. The pig was screaming outside and the little dumpling inside cried. It was so lively.

Qin Xuejuan coaxed her in the room for a while, and then the little guy stopped crying and was hugged by his mother in peace, holding her mother's breasts and breasts with satisfaction.

Old Mrs. Xu didn't know how to clean up pig's heads, so she simply gave it to Grandpa Jiang. The old man said that when he packed half of the house, he could still eat some pig's head meat during the Chinese New Year.

At noon, Xu Ning cleaned up pig blood, pig liver, pig intestines, etc., added tofu, pork, cabbage, vermicelli, etc., squatted a large pot of pig-killing vegetables, and delivered a large bowl to the next door. The family sat together and ate it so much that they were very satisfied. Even the little guy asked the old lady to use steamed buns to dip the soup in order to order it, so she smiled and danced.

"Ruirui is the more she looks like a lucky baby in the New Year painting as she grows. "The old lady hugged her grandson, shook her gently to let him fall asleep after feeding her, and then sent her to her house.

"Grandma is saying he is fat." Xu Ning joked.

The old lady smiled and nodded, "No, it's white and fat, just like the big steamed buns we just steamed."

Qin Xuejuan laughed and said, "I just said that it was a doll in the New Year painting, but it turned into a big steamed bun in a blink of an eye. This gap..."

After killing the New Year pig, New Year's Eve is also coming in the busyness of people.

This year is even more lively than last year, mainly because there is a little baby at home.

At the New Year's Eve dinner table, Xu Ning picked out the fish bones, then pounded them in the bowl, and fed them little by little to his younger brother.

The little guy ate complementary food in six months. It was basically Qin Zhao bought it from the Demon Capital and sent it. All of them were foreign goods. I'm afraid this guy is the best food in the entire city. I guess he's probably the one who eats the best in their entire city.

After eating a little, Xiao Tuanzi was arrogant and opened her head. It was obvious that she was full.

Seeing this, Qin Xuejuan hugged her son in her arms and said to Xu Ning: "Eat quickly, Xiao Zheng will come over later."

"Um!"

Not long after dinner, Grandpa Jiang's family came over with melon seeds and candies, and Xie Zheng followed slowly.

After entering the door, Gao Xiulan held Xiao Tuanzi and was still intimate. After the intimacy was over, Xie Zheng hugged the little guy in his arms and talked to Xu Ning in the main hall. Several adults were still setting up a table to play mahjong in the old lady's room.

Their TV is placed in the main hall, and I don’t want Grandpa Jiang’s TV to be placed in the sleeping room next door, so I still have to come out when watching the Spring Festival Gala later.

However, the coal stove was lit in the main hall, and the room was very warm.
