If Shen Zhi says it is a good thing, then it must be a good thing.

Everyone put all the fish into the bucket, put the smallest fish back into the river, and then went home.

"We're going to eat whitebait today!"

Now, everyone is looking forward to the dishes she cooks.

When it's freezing cold, you have to boil water to wash vegetables, which consumes a lot of firewood.

Shen Zhi was busy in the kitchen. When Chu Changfeng and the others came back, hot meals were already placed on the large warm table in the main hall.

A large plate of whitebait fried eggs, a plate of shredded green peppers and potatoes, and a serving of stir-fried green peppers with bacon.

While she was thinking about what soup to eat, she suddenly thought of something and quickly checked in the space.

I saw a field full of red and green fruits.

Shen Zhi was delighted. The fruit had been ripe a long time ago and had been planted for several batches. Now was the perfect time to let everyone taste it.

She picked several and ate one raw, then started making soup.

Everyone had been outside for the whole morning, and their bodies were cold, with numb hands and feet.

So Shen Zhi placed a small stove under the warm table and covered the coffee table with a wide and long blanket that hung down to the ground. The part that hung down over the coffee table was cut and sewn along the edges in every direction.

It is convenient for everyone to sit and also for heat to gather.

As soon as Chu Changfeng and Chu Xiao sat down, they felt the warm temperature under the coffee table.

Then I looked at the delicious food on the table and felt very hungry.

"Have a meal!"

"Zhizhi, what is this?"

Chu Changfeng pointed at the little silver fish and asked.

"This is a silverfish, which is a small fish that is transparent in the river and white when it is caught."

Chu Changfeng was stunned, "Let me try it."

The whitebait omelette is particularly delicious, and the whitebait does not even have a single bone.

Chu Changfeng was surprised, "Delicious!"

"If it tastes good, eat more."

When the others heard this, they quickly picked up their bowls and started eating.

As they ate, they all regretted their meal.

"If I had known that this kind of silverfish is so delicious, why would we have suffered from hunger in the winter before?" Chu Xiao said.

Lin Zheng: "This kind of fish can only be caught with the net made by Shen Zhi. We can't catch it with our bare hands."

After eating a few bites of whitebait, Chu Changfeng started to eat other dishes. Bacon and shredded potatoes were usually his favorites, and they were very delicious!

But today's soup is a little different.

He curiously filled a bowl with egg drops and something red in the soup.

It should be a kind of fruit, but it has been cooked.

"Zhizhi, what is this?"

"This is tomato egg drop soup. It's the one I chose first among the flowers and plants we bought last time. The fruit it produces is sweet and sour and very delicious. In addition to making soup, it can also be used to make many dishes."

Chu Changfeng took a sip of the soup and didn’t think it was very delicious. Maybe it was because of the eggs, it was still very fragrant.

But he felt that the soup would taste better without that fruit.

"How is it? Is it delicious? Are you used to it?"

Chu Changfeng: "It's a little weird, but still drinkable."

"If you haven't eaten this before, you will feel uncomfortable at first, but it will get better later."

He was not used to it, but Chu Xiao and the others liked it very much. They each drank a bowl of hot soup and felt very comfortable.

After finishing their meal, Chu Xiao and Chu Changfeng sat by the fire for a while and then went up the mountain.

Going hunting in the afternoon.

It was still snowing outside, and Shen Zhi was really worried about them going, but they didn't listen to her. They just wanted to get more firewood and prey before the blizzard came.

After they left, Shen Zhi took Lin Zheng to continue fishing, but he couldn't bear to let the children go with them, so he let them stay at home and warm themselves by the fire.

I found out that they went to the river to fish, and some people from the village also came.

But they don't have fishing nets, so it's not easy to catch fish.

You have to spread the bait and catch it.

Not long after, Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang came with Niu Niu.

They carried a large bamboo shelter and some rice.

They certainly won’t catch many this way.

Shen Zhi couldn't bear to see Niu Niu shivering with cold and sniffing his nose.

But the little guy didn't feel sorry for himself. When he saw Shen Zhi, he ran over in surprise, "Aunt! Where are Nian Nian and the others? Didn't they come fishing with you?"

Shen Zhi touched his head, "It's too cold. Why did you come here? Let's go back."

Niu Niu waved his hands, "No! I want to help my parents catch fish, I'm very good at it!"

Seeing that he was starting to have a runny nose again, Shen Zhi sighed. Anyway, they would be going back after hauling the net up, so it would be a good opportunity for them to use it.

"Auntie Zhang, the bamboo nets are too slow for you to use. Why don't you use the fishing nets? I'll give you my fishing nets! We don't need them today."

When Aunt Zhang heard this, she ran over and said, "Oh, thank you, Shen Zhi!"

"You are welcome."

When the fishing net was pulled up, Aunt Zhang was shocked to see all kinds of small silverfish, grass carp and crucian carp inside.

"How... can you catch so much? This net is really useful!"

Shen Zhi and Lin Zheng quickly took the fish down and gave them the fishing net. "You two go fishing. I see Niu Niu's nose is running because of the cold. I'll take him home and warm him up by the fire."

The couple looked at Niu Niu and felt sorry for him. "Okay, thank you for your help."

"It's okay, no trouble!"

Although Niu Niu was wearing a new cotton-padded jacket, it did not contain much cotton and did not feel very thick.

Shen Zhi touched his head, "Niuniu, are you cold?"

The little guy shook his head, "It's not cold! I'm wearing new clothes today! It's very warm!"

Shen Zhi sighed, "Do you burn firewood to keep warm at home?"

"No, my parents said to go to bed when it's cold. The weather this year is definitely very bad, and the snow is getting heavier. Although my father chopped a lot of firewood, it's not enough to use it every day."

"Then if you feel cold in the future, come to my house and call Xiao Shitou, Sanya and Erya. My house is warm."

The newly built house this year is not as drafty as the thatched house.

“Hehehe…Okay…”

back home.

Seeing Niu Niu, the three little ones immediately moved away from the coffee table, "Come on! It's warm here!"

Niu Niu looked at the big table covered with a thick blanket with curiosity. He sat down and instantly felt a strong warmth.

"Why...why is it so warm?!"

he screamed.

Chu Jinnian smirked and pulled the thick blanket open a little, "Because there is a stove underneath, and the stove is surrounded by the blanket and the table, the warmth can't escape, so it's warm!"

Niu Niu bent down to take a look and said excitedly: "This way, everyone sitting here will be warm!"

Shen Zhi brought some dried meat to the little ones and put it on the table. The dried meat was baked with pork and it was spicy and tasty just by chewing.

"So, little Niu Niu, bring the stones and the others with you, so you don't have to suffer from the cold."

"I'll call them tomorrow!"

The kotatsu in their house is big enough, but the little ones are so small that they squeeze together and don’t take up much space at all.

Niu Niu hasn’t been so warm since the snow began. Even when sleeping at night, he feels chilly and it feels like there are drafts everywhere in the house.

But this new house doesn't feel any cold wind at all.

so good.
