Chapter 183 I Cried After Receiving the Letter

Yun Yingying felt her hands were warm at this time, and then she took the spatula from Han Li's hand while flipping the pine nuts.

"Brother Li, what do you want to eat for breakfast?"

"Don't you have a lot of stewed spine from your sister yesterday? Just heat it up and make steamed buns."

"Brother Li, who do you think cooks the best donkey meat, my sister or Sister He?"

Han Li: "Hehe. I think they both cook very well, better than mine. By the way, why do you think of asking this question?"

Yun Yingying: "This is the first time I see my sister competing with others in cooking. I guess Sister He also has this idea, otherwise they would have gone crazy yesterday and cooked so much meat."

"Oh, so that's the reason. I said something seemed a little wrong last night."

Not long after, Yun Jingjing pushed the door in, and the two of them immediately changed the topic.

Han Li: "If there is nothing to do at the clinic today, I plan to help you catch a squirrel."

Yun Yingying: "Forget it, it's not easy to walk on the mountain now because of the snow."

"The snow on the mountain will only get deeper and deeper, and it will melt little by little after next spring. When the snow is thicker, we can go for a walk. If we are lucky enough to encounter wild rabbits, they can't run fast at all."

Although Han Li's words are not nonsense, the chance of encountering such a thing is about the same as waiting for a rabbit. The reason for saying this is to pave the way for Yun Yingying to be a super-large hot water bag for two days in the future.

The three of them finished breakfast quickly, and Yun Jingjing continued to practice calligraphy after packing up in the house.

Han Li and Yun Yingying came to the clinic, opened the door, lit the stove, and the two played chess on the table.

Not long after, people began to come to the clinic, and the sisters-in-law and aunts came with needlework baskets.

"You two little friends are actually playing chess, that's great. You should find some fun for yourself during the winter, otherwise you will be bored to death."

"Aunt, this is easy to learn, how about I teach you?"

"I can't learn it at all with my eyes open. Besides, even if I learn it, I have nowhere to go. My husband is just like me, he can't even write his own name."

"Then wait for Aunt to learn it and go home to teach Uncle, or if Uncle doesn't go out one day, let Brother Li teach him."

"No, it will cost money to buy chess pieces."

Han Li: "Aunt, I actually have a simple Nine Dragons chess here. You can play it by picking up a few small wooden sticks or small stones. How about I teach you guys?"

Nine Dragons chess: Draw three squares from the inside to the outside, from small to large, on a plane, and connect the four sides in the middle.

Two people play against each other, and the chess pieces are small wooden sticks or small stones. Each person holds nine. Whoever connects his three pieces in a line first is a dragon, and can eat any chess piece of the opponent that has not become a dragon. Finally, the opponent's chess pieces are reduced to a certain number and cannot become a dragon.

For a more complicated game, you can also connect the four corners of the three squares. This game is called Twelve Dragons.

Although it looks simple, it is not easy to play. You have to try to make yourself a dragon, and you have to guard against the opponent's three connected.

This is no less fun than chess. The key is that you can use local materials, it is simple and easy to understand, and you can easily get started whether you can read or not.

After Han Li and Yun Yingying taught the sisters-in-law and aunts in the room how to play, they no longer cared about making shoe soles, and gathered in pairs to play Kowloon chess.

Those who couldn't find an opponent acted as military advisors on the side, and the sound of pointing out the situation and regretting chess could be heard from time to time in the room.

Han Li thought that if he could provide tea, this would be a chess and card room.

At this time, the wind outside suddenly became stronger, and the whistling wind made the doors and windows bang.

Han Li quickly stood up and propped the door with a wooden stick. At this time, an aunt Zhao Wu in the room said.

"It was very cloudy when I came here just now, and now the wind is getting stronger. It is estimated that it will snow heavily in the next few days."

"Who said it wasn't? The weather looks like it will change drastically. Fifth aunt, how is your daughter doing this year?"

"Don't mention it. At first, the matchmaker said she was pretty good, but later I found out that she was nothing."

"What happened?"

"The six brothers and sisters in their family are a bit poor, but as long as the child can stand up, a little poverty is acceptable. After all, there are not many villages like ours. Who knew that the child was a softie at home. All the brothers and sisters, regardless of age, can control him, and he doesn't even dare to fart. If my daughter marries such a man who can't stand up, won't she suffer for the rest of her life?"

Then there was a lot of discussion in the house. Han Li and Yun Yingying were playing chess on the table, listening to the various discussions of the sisters-in-law and aunts. At this time, a crisp bicycle bell came from outside the door, followed by the bright voice of the postman.

"Han Li, Hao Hongmin, Yang Xiuying, Wu Lili, Zhang Xiangjun, Qi Zhaodi, all come out to pick up your mail."

Han Li and Yun Yingying were the first to come out, and the others came out from their homes soon after.

"Comrade, you've worked hard. You've made a trip in such a cold weather."

Postman: "Hahaha, why is it so hard to serve the people? When the snow is too thick, unless there's a registered letter or a telegram, it'll probably take me a long time to come over. Don't blame me then."

Han Li only had two letters this time. Yun Jingjing didn't come out when she didn't hear her name being called, but Yun Yingying looked a little unhappy.

Han Li: "It's too cold today, postman, come in and have a cup of hot water to warm up."

"Thank you for your kindness, Comrade Han. I still have more than a dozen villages to run today. I dare not rest in one place. I'll wait until I'm not busy. Let's go."

After the postman left, several people except Qi Zhaodi followed Han Li to the clinic.

When they saw the elder sister-in-law and the aunt fighting on the chessboard, several people immediately gathered together.

Some of them knew how to play and some didn't, but after they understood the rules, they all found a good place to start drawing the chessboard.

Han Li looked a little speechless. It would be great if you could go back home to the warm kang. Why do you want to play chess here? Is it just for the crowds and the excitement? But it seems to be true.

However, at this time, it was most important to make Yun Yingying happy first, so Han Li said some intimate words to Yun Yingying, which made the depression on her face disappear, and was replaced by a faint blush.

However, at this time, Qi Zhaodi, who received a letter from home for the first time, was crying in He Mi's arms. He Mi patted Qi Zhaodi on the shoulder and said.

"What are you afraid of? I and your brother Han are here, it's okay."
