Chapter 198 A Heartfelt Proposal (Happy Holidays to Everyone)

The sound of the wind and snow outside was so loud that Qi Ruying and Yuan Hongying could still hear it inside the house, which meant that something happened there.

Yun Jingjing could not care about arguing with Han Li for the time being, and stretched out her hand to gently push him and said.

"It has been snowing heavily for two days in a row. Could it be that there is something wrong with the house in the Youth League? There are only three male Youth League members here now, why don't you go out and take a look."

Han Li: "I will listen to you, but the snow outside is already knee-deep. I will go out alone to take a look. You two should stay in the house and don't go out. If you catch a cold, it will be heartbreaking."

Han Li's words were a little too much, but Yun Jingjing felt a little relieved when she heard it.

"Wrap yourself up and go quickly. I will go and wake up my little sister to prevent other things from happening."

Han Li put on the coat handed to him by Yun Jingjing and went out. Considering the road conditions outside, he also picked up a shovel.

A lot of snow was blown in by the wind at the street gate and piled up here, making the corner of the gate much thicker than other places.

Seeing this, Han Li picked up a shovel and started to clear the snow at the door. When he stood completely on the street, he saw Qi Ruying and Yuan Hongying shouting at the door of Hao Hongmin, who was closest to the Youth House.

"Comrade Qi, Comrade Yuan, I came out when I heard your voices. It's snowing so hard. Do you have any urgent matters?"

Qi Ruying: "Comrade Han, it's great that you came out. We were planning to call Xiuying and the others and then call you."

Yuan Hongying: "We woke up this morning and found that the cellar of the Youth House was collapsed by the heavy snow. In such cold weather, many vegetables may have been frozen. But the two of us can't clean the cellar out, so we came out to ask for help."

"Okay, don't shout at the female educated youths in such a heavy snow. I'll clear a way out first, and you can call the other male educated youths."

As soon as Han Li said this, Qi Ruying and Yuan Hongying opposite him showed disgust on their faces.

Qi Ruying said angrily: "Thank you, Comrade Han. We will go and call Zhang Xiangjun right away, but we can't invite Zhou Guoqing."

Yuan Hongying: "Zhou Guoqing said that there are only a few potatoes and cabbages in the cellar. Even if they are frozen, he can continue to eat. But there are not many vegetables for the two of us. In addition to the little we exchanged from the villagers, there is only Sister Jiang who gave us her share before leaving. But the vegetables of others are in there. If we can't rescue them, what will we say when everyone comes back, so."

Han Li cursed in his heart when he heard it, but he just wanted to do his part, so he waved his hand and continued to shovel snow.

Qi Ruying and Yuan Hongying walked to the door of Zhang Xiangjun's house with one foot high and one foot high in the thick snow, and then knocked on his street door.

But just when Han Li was bending down to clear the snow, the street door of Hao Hongmin's house opened, and the two of them wrapped themselves tightly and walked out in the snow.

Hao Hongmin: "Han Li, were you also called out by Qi Ruying and Yuan Hongying?"

"In this weather, I heard their voices and was worried that something might happen, so I ran out to see. They said that the cellar of the Youth House was collapsed by the snow, and they wanted to ask everyone to help get the vegetables out."

Yang Xiuying: "I knew Han Li was still so enthusiastic, but your alcohol tolerance is really not that good."

"Haha, you are as brave as a man, and your beauty is better than a man. I definitely admit that you are better than him in drinking."

While they were talking, Zhang Xiangjun followed Qi Ruying and Yuan Hongying.

The two of them shoveled snow and soon came to the cellar of the Youth House. Maybe the wind blew all the snow over, and the collapsed cellar was almost filled up at this time. Han Li looked at the situation in front of him and said.

"The cellar has become a snow pit. It's a bit difficult to deal with this situation."

"Isn't it? I thought we could just build a roof with tree poles. Now we can only dig out the vegetables and move them to another place. It's not easy to dig them even if there's such a heavy snow now."

"It's hard to dig, but we have to dig. Let's go down the ladder and clean it up little by little. You female comrades, find a rope and a big basket. When it gets deep, you can lift the snow up."

Han Li and Zhang Xiangjun cleaned down little by little. When the shovel couldn't swing open, they used the hanging basket to pull it up.

At this time, the Yun sisters, He Mi, Qi Zhaodi, Wu Lili and others came over. Even if they couldn't help, they had to come over to take a look. Only Zhou Guoqing was still hiding in the house without moving.

When the women were chatting upstairs, they said loudly that the wind and snow here were really strong, and whispered that Zhou Guoqing was not good. In addition, the fact that Han Li couldn't drink was once again known to everyone.

This news made Wu Lili, who had been unable to get a word in, smile disdainfully, and a glimmer of unknown light flashed in her eyes.

Zhang Xiangjun laughed and said after hearing what he said: "Were you fine when we drank a bottle? But your alcohol tolerance is getting lower and lower now?"

Han Li smiled and said nothing after hearing what Zhang Xiangjun said. In his opinion, not being able to drink liquor was not a shameful thing.

However, Han Li gestured with his hands to measure the height of the two people, which made Zhang Xiangjun, who was 1.7 meters tall, roll his eyes.

Finally, they used a hanging basket to get the vegetables in the cellar up little by little, but these vegetables were basically all frozen.

Han Li didn't pay attention to these when he was underground, but when he came out and looked at the frozen potatoes, he frowned and said.

"These potatoes are very perishable once thawed, so they must be eaten as soon as possible. Also, if the potatoes turn black and ooze black water after thawing, do not eat them, because the cost of treating the disease is much more expensive than these potatoes."

Han Li told the most serious situation among them. As for the loss of nutrients in potatoes after being frozen, he didn't mention it at all, because no one would care if he did.

Qi Ruying and Yuan Hongying expressed a series of thanks to everyone, but everyone's hands and faces were red from the cold, and the violent storm and snow in the sky still showed no sign of weakening. Now that the matter has been resolved, they all wanted to go home to warm up, so feel free to be polite. They dispersed after a few words.

When Han Li and the others went home to warm up, Xiong Xianxian, who had left the Educated Youth Home, was busy with others near the [Golden Ancient Road].

(I won’t write the detailed address.)

In any era, there is no shortage of people who dare to take risks or are blinded by money. Xiong Xianjin happens to have this heritage, and those people have a certain amount of power in their hands. This is the last time Xiong Xianjin was able to return to the world without incident. Kawamura's reasons.

However, due to the current special situation, they only dare to toss in winter for a while.

But it is not so easy to pan for gold in winter. These people, including Xiong Xian, have suffered enough.

Everyone's fingers were as frozen as radishes, but the harvest was far less than they imagined. This situation made them extremely irritable, so Xiong Xianxian not only had to work more, but he might even get punched by these people if he didn't do it. Hitting and kicking as a punching bag.

After Han Li returned home, Yun Yingying found cotton shoes and cotton pants for him to change into, and then he took a few sips of the tea that Yun Jingjing had brewed.

"Ah, I've finally recovered. The weather here is so pleasant. No wonder everyone calls this period Cat Winter."

Yun Yingying: "Isn't it? We can't accept it even after we adapt little by little. I really want to know what will happen when those new educated youths come in two days?"

Yun Jingjing: "Compared to us working in the fields as soon as we arrived, they have caught up in a good time."

Han Li had long forgotten about the new educated youth, but when he heard what the sisters said, he suddenly had an idea in his mind.

"Well, I have an idea here, how about we put it together?"

"Brother Li, what do you think?"

"This cat winter has just begun. I'm thinking that we should move in together like yesterday, so that you don't have to travel back and forth every day. Moreover, there will be a group of new educated youth coming later. You can just take advantage of it. Take this opportunity to sell the house, otherwise it will be cheaper for the village branch. "

Yun Jingjing was not happy when she heard this. Wouldn't moving in together make her suffer that kind of torture every day?

"This is absolutely not possible. Although we have a clear conscience, you two are not married after all. We need to prevent others from gossiping. It is not every day that there is a violent storm and snow that prevents people from going out. If this is used to talk about other people, things will change. It can be big or small, it’s not appropriate.”

Han Li: "Can we choose to get married now?"

"You are not old enough, and your parents don't know about this yet."

Han Li chuckled after hearing this, and then he said seriously.

"Let's not talk about the distant ones. Just say that more than half of the people in Shanghe Village have never even seen a marriage certificate, because they don't need a marriage certificate at all. Getting married is just setting up a few tables of wine and inviting a few people with good relationships to sit together. Just be the witness."

Han Li paused briefly after saying this, but he continued before Yun Jingjing could speak.

"I have no other intention in doing this. I just want to take better care of you. Although I don't have to work in the fields during Cat Winter, this winter will eventually pass.

I am now the only health worker in the village, and I can legitimately not participate in ordinary labor. Moreover, when spring comes, the health worker will need to go into the mountains to dig up medicinal materials to make up for the current lack of medicines.

However, going into the mountains to collect herbs will lead to various situations, such as climbing cliffs and trees. These are tasks that cannot be done by one person, so I have every reason to ask the village branch to find an assistant for me.

If Yingying and I have a treat to announce our marriage, she can naturally become my assistant, and you two sisters can't tell who is who, so you two sisters can just use this excuse to take turns to rest. "

Yun Jingjing couldn't refute Han Li's words, but she always felt like something was wrong.
