Chapter 307 Unity is strength
The children saw the vast white snow in the morning, tentatively stretched out their hands to touch it, and then ran to play in the snow happily.
Even adults who have never seen snow will smile and stand in the snow, stepping on the snow, with a fresh and curious expression on their faces.
But soon I was worried that the children would see it, so I tried my best to keep a straight face and pretended to be nonchalant, but my curious eyes couldn't help but stare at the snow on the roof.
The snow was not heavy. Zhou Yang and Kong Daming ran back and forth to the beginning and end of the village this morning, organizing people to clear the snow to prevent the houses from collapsing and to see if anyone had a headache or fever.
We have just settled down, and we have seen that the Chinese New Year will be celebrated in two days, but nothing can happen, otherwise the people in Taohua Village will find out, and they will definitely feel that they are not doing their job well.
Junji Mountain is far away from Junji Town. There are currently only three villages in this area: Taohua Village, Shangcun and Xiacun.
In order to facilitate the daily shopping of people in upper and lower villages, Taohua Village built two wooden houses at the entrance of the village.
While guarding the gate of the village, it can also function as a canteen, selling some things to people in the upper and lower villages.
Chickens, ducks, fish, meat, grains and vegetables are purchased collectively in these two villages. Not only are the prices favorable, they are the same for every household, so no one will be jealous of the other.
Zhou Yang had been busy all morning. He just returned home and sat down. After drinking half a bowl of hot water, he remembered something and hurried out again.
"Dang Dang Dang."
The familiar bell rang, and people in every household went out happily no matter what they were doing.
Finally it’s time to buy, buy, buy again.
In the open space, some people who arrived early could not help but ask: "Village chief, what are you going to fight for today?"
"Is there any bacon? I regretted not having bacon with everyone last time."
Zhou Yang smiled: "Don't worry, I'll tell you one by one, yes..."
"Little turmeric is the best for warming up. I will order it from Taohua Village soon. If anyone wants to buy it, please come and register."
"I will also buy some sweet potato flour today. The minimum purchase is five kilograms. You should consider whether you want to fight for it or not."
"The salt is still the same. One family can only buy three kilograms."
"You can buy up to ten kilograms of flour and white rice. If there are more than seven people in the family, you can buy an extra five kilograms..."
This is the case in the upper village, and the same is true in the lower village.
"Village chief, are there any mutton today?" The speaker explained awkwardly.
"In my hometown, we have to eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year. I thought that now that life is getting better, I would like to give my children a taste of mutton dumplings."
Kong Daming immediately flipped through the book: "Wait a minute, I'll check."
"Yes, the minimum purchase price of mutton is six pounds. We need to form a group of ten people to see if other villagers want to buy it together."
Upon hearing this, people who wanted to buy mutton immediately started enthusiastically encouraging the people around them.
"Does anyone want to buy mutton with me? It would be so comfortable to drink a bowl of mutton soup on such a cold day..."
"Think about it, guys, you can usually buy pork, but not necessarily mutton. It depends on whether it is in stock."
"It's Chinese New Year, so buy more meat so that you can have a good meal at home."
"On a snowy day, if you eat warmly, you will have the strength to work in the spring."
"Is there anyone with you? Is there anyone?"
Under this person's enthusiastic persuasion, many people raised their hands to express their solidarity, "You are six pounds and I am ten pounds."
Everyone has a lot of money in their hands, and it's the Chinese New Year, so they are naturally willing to eat meat.
Kong Daming saw this, counted about thirty people, and nodded: "Okay, if you can form a group, then I will register you."
"Village chief, can you make meatballs today?"
A woman raised her hand: "My child likes fish balls and mushroom balls."
As soon as these words came out, many women immediately echoed: "Yes, yes, fish cakes are okay, and crab sticks too. My mother-in-law loves crab sticks..." "My children also like to eat meatballs."
< br>
Kong Daming looked at the purchase list and nodded: "Meatballs? Yes, but this time it's a family portrait, and the minimum purchase price is six pounds. See if you want them."
Family portrait means all kinds of meatballs mixed together.
The women who wanted to buy meatballs only hesitated for a second or two before deciding to buy them. When the time came to buy them, there were so many people at home, so they were not afraid of wasting them.
Peach Blossom Village.
The decorated Peach Blossom Village looks like a dreamy fairy tale amidst the falling snow.
After breakfast, Baitao had nothing to do, so he took the children in the village to have a snowball fight.
To be precise, she stood on a half-meter-high wooden stake and directed two waves of children to have a snowball fight.
After all, Baitao is the aunt of Peach Blossom Village. Anyone who dares to disrespect her, even by throwing a snowball, is afraid that she will be hurt, so she becomes the referee.
Baitao was too lazy to run around, and she would never move her legs when she could move her mouth.
So, while holding a thermos cup and drinking tons of ginger juice and milk, she opened her mouth to cheer for both parties.
"Hurry up, they're all exposed."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, my hand speed was a little slower and I didn't hit it."
With the mall here, it was easy for Baitao to determine who was "killed" after being hit, which also attracted exclamations of admiration from the children.
My aunt is so powerful. Even if she didn't see the situation behind the house, she still judged that there was no difference at all.
The 'killed' child squatted obediently on the sidelines, drinking ginger juice and drinking milk. Even if he saw that his side was at a disadvantage, he was anxious and did not dare to speak.
Because 'dead people' cannot speak, otherwise points will be deducted. If the points are deducted too much, your side will automatically fail.
While acting as a referee, Baitao also gave on-site teaching: "You must have a strategy and not act recklessly."
"Use your brain and take advantage of the terrain."
"Counterattack. Remember, offense is the greatest defense."
"Three again and again, three and three are exhausted, this is the truth."
"Morale is very important. Yes, morale must be high at all times. Otherwise, half of the battle will be lost before it is even fought."
"..."
"Red side, you are at a disadvantage now. If you don't find a chance, you will have no choice but to lose to the blue side. Then your big chicken legs will be given to the other side today."
"Hey, not bad, not bad, the red side actually seized the opportunity to counterattack successfully when they were in a weak position."
Baitao praised: "What does this mean? Yes, the importance of being bold and careful, never give up at any time."
Playing snowball fights, with so many tricks, it’s just a white peach.
"...Unity is strength, this strength is iron, strength is steel..."
Baitao's ginger juice and milk were finished, and the children's snowball fight was also finished.
Facing the expectant eyes of the children, Baitao put her hands on her hips and announced in a sweet voice: "Two to two, a draw."
Children are all very competitive.
As soon as she finished speaking, Little Douding immediately begged: "Auntie, it's still early, can we play another game?"
They were almost able to occupy the opponent's position just now.
Come on, come on, here I come
