After drinking a few sips, the heat on his body rose, and Wen Xu didn't feel that it was as cold as before, or maybe he drank a little too much, and suddenly forgot about the cold outside.

The three of them were just in the small courtyard, surrounded by Wangwang's ceramic stove, chatting while sipping meat and drinking wine. It made Wen Xu feel that he suddenly felt like a hero in Liangshan.

After the three of them ate here for more than half an hour, Mr. Chi's voice sounded out of voice at the gate of the yard: "Oh, it's so lively."

As soon as Wen Xu looked up and saw Mr. Chi, he immediately stood up: "When did you come back?"

"Just arrived home, I heard the excitement in your yard and came over to take a look. Who knew that you were so interested in learning from the past and imitating the virtuous, and drinking in the snow." Mr. Chi finished with a smile, took a step back, and turned around. He turned his head to the road outside the door and shouted: "Old Jia, Lao Jia, put your things down, we have enough for lunch today."

Upon hearing this, Wen Xu said with a smile: "Hey, what you said, let others think that I don't know how stingy I am."

While talking, Wen Xu was about to turn around and go to the room to fetch chopsticks for the two old men.

Qin Zhuangping immediately raised his hand and said, "Brother Xu, sit with me and get it!"

After speaking, he took Xiao Pao into the house.

Wen Xu didn't greet him either, so she stood beside the couch and waited for Mr. Jia to come in.

After Mr. Chi beckoned, he walked in first, and without being polite to everyone, he just took off his shoes when he got to the edge of the couch, sat cross-legged on the couch, and then moved his buttocks two steps to the small table Beside him, he focused on the dishes on the table.

"Oh, not bad, there are both meat and vegetables." Mr. Chi looked at the fish fillets on the table, and then looked at the milk cabbage, green vegetables, mushrooms and so on on the bed and said.

The big guys have been eating for a while, and the fish fillets are almost gone, Wen Nuan followed Mr. Chi's eyes and said, wow! I have to go into the house to get fish fillets.

"You sit down first, and I'll go in and peel the fish fillets!" Wen Xu stood up after speaking.

Hearing this, old man Chi immediately said: "Don't peel it in the house, just bring it over here, let's eat it while peeling it, and if there is any mutton, take out a little bit, and tell you that I want to kill the mutton at home. ".

Just at this moment, the figure of Mr. Jia appeared at the gate of the yard, saw that Mr. Chi had already got on the couch and sat cross-legged, so he said with a smile: "You old man, you can't go over and help I?"

Old Master Chi said: "I do my own thing, why should I help you!"

As he spoke, he took the chopsticks from Qin Zhuangping's hand, took the big glass, and picked up the wine bottle on the other side. After picking it up, he felt that the bottle was lighter. Not knowing what he was talking about, he picked up a new bottle of wine, opened it, and filled it up for himself.

Ziliu! After taking a sip of the wine, he let out a contented sound, and then took out a chicken foot from the pot and started to chew on it.

Wen Xu ignored Mr. Chi's relaxed manner of eating, his eyes fell on Mr. Jia, and asked curiously: "You two elders are so interesting. The old Linzi who went in together, one of them was still considered glamorous when he came out. How did the other dress up? Like begging for food?"

Not to mention the clothes of Mr. Jia who entered the door, he could hardly see the original color. His beard was also long, and the hair on his head, which was not much before, was now in clumps.

"The old woods don't use anything, such as washing powder with natural ingredients, just wash with clean water, saying that those things hurt the woods. After squatting in the old woods like this for two or three months, if it stays bright, it will be fine. You have to put him on the altar for worship!"

After finishing speaking, Old Master Chi said to his old friend: "Old Jia, hurry up, Wen Xu's craftsmanship has improved again, have you seen this fish fillet, it looks transparent, this sword skill!"

Wen Xu signaled to Qin Zhuangping to put Mr. Jia's cup and chopsticks on the table.

He himself went into the house and took the fish, a big fish weighing seven catties, Wen Xu killed it directly, then scaled and removed the internal organs, then put it in a plastic basin, and along the way, put the half fish that hadn't been put in before. The chicken was also brought out.

Added the ingredients again, added fire again, Wen Xu took off the fish head with two knives at the side, then separated the fish head and broke it into two parts and threw it into the pot. Slice fish fillets with a sharp knife and quick hands. While slicing the fish quickly, he chatted with the two old men.

"When will you two come back this time?" Wen Xu asked.

Mr. Chi said: "There is nothing serious here, just wait for the beginning of spring to go in. Old Jia may have to celebrate the New Year in the old forest."

"How do you say it?" Old Qin picked up his cup and touched it with Mr. Jia, asking curiously.

Mr. Jia said: "The Americans are going to shoot a documentary, and I want to follow. I'm a little worried about these people!"

"What documentary?" Wen Xu asked curiously, but the work in hand did not stop. Slices of fish fillets as thin as wings were sliced ​​off from the fish by Wen Xu, and placed on an empty plate, layer by layer. It's like fish scales.

"Bbbc," Mr. Chi said.

"Isn't that from England?" Wen Nu was a little suspicious.

Mr. Chi explained: "It's true that it's from the UK, but it's Americans who are dealing with us... Forget it, I won't talk to you about it, anyway, the BBC is going to come to us to shoot a documentary about Bawangxiu. It's going to be red!"

"Then congratulations to Professor Jia, it's going to be on TV soon!" As soon as he heard that it was popular, Old Qin thought that Professor Jia was going to be on domestic TV, so he immediately congratulated Professor Jia.

Professor Jia said: "It doesn't matter if you don't get on TV, I'm just afraid that these guys will come to our place to film randomly!"

"Why are you worried about this? They still need to communicate with each other," said Mr. Chi.

Wen Xu said: "They should be professional. It's not the first time they have made this kind of film. BBC documentaries are so famous."

"I hope!" Mr. Jia dropped a sentence directly, and had a sip with Lao Qintou, and he took a sip, and directly poured a drink or two into his stomach.

"Whose horse is that sick horse outside the door?" Mr. Jia was worthy of being engaged in animal research, and he kept his three words close to his profession.

Old Qintou said: "Mine, I bought it, six hundred yuan!"

"Then you're at a loss. This horse won't live for more than two weeks and is dying. I advise you to bury it directly and save some fodder." Mr. Jia wiped the wine sticking to his beard under his mouth and said.

When Lao Qintou heard this, he smiled and did not respond, and took a sip of his wine in a self-contained manner.

Seeing Old Qin's appearance, Mr. Jia couldn't understand why he was so proud, so he immediately asked curiously, "Can you cure this disease?"

"What disease?" Old Master Chi interjected curiously.

"Shh!" Old Master Jia waved his hand at Old Master Chi, then stared at the silent Old Qin with piercing eyes.

Old Qintou is a little embarrassing now. Even a learned person like a university professor doesn't know how to cure the horse's disease, but he knows it himself. This makes the uneducated old Qintou very satisfied now.

After waiting for a while, Mr. Jia immediately urged: "You damn old Qin, you are talking, if you can't cure it, tell me!"

"Since I bought it, it will be cured!" Old Qin said in a long voice.

After Mr. Jia thought for a while, he shook his head: "I don't believe it!"

"Do you want to gamble?" Old Qin smiled and glanced at Professor Jia.

Professor Jia was unambiguous: "What do you want to bet?"

Lao Qin said: "Let's do it this way. If I cure the horse, you will take care of my week's old wine. If I can't cure it, I will take care of your week's old wine. Is that okay?"

"No problem, it's settled!" Mr. Jia clapped his hands to seal the bet, and said to the people sitting around: "Everyone heard clearly, give us a certificate!"

"Mr. Jia, I think you're going to lose!" Wen Xu said bluntly. At this time, Wen Xu had already sliced ​​a whole fish, and now the plastic basin was full of fish bones, and Wen Xu didn't pick the meat on it. , Throwing it directly into the yard, after a while, the snow sculpture standing on the tree jumped down, put the fish bone on the branch and began to peck at the fish meat on it.

"I'm willing to lose or lose. Veterinarians don't have any good solutions for this disease. Usually, euthanasia is found. By the way, Lao Qin, how are you going to treat it?" Mr. Jia smiled and moved to Lao Qin's side, smiling asked.

At this moment, Old Qin's expression immediately became embarrassing. He is always the kind of person who wants to dig a hole to hide if he has a good thing. He is not willing to tell Lao Jia how he handles horses.

However, Mr. Jia is still a person who doesn't know much about world affairs. Now he is blinking his old eyes solemnly, and looking at Old Qintou with a rather longing look.

Old Qintou had no choice but to say directly: "I can't tell others about this. I promised my master not to tell anyone except my children and grandchildren."

When Mr. Jia heard it, he understood: "It's a pity!"

"Drink, drink!" Mr. Chi immediately interrupted.

It was the first time for Wen Xu to hear from Old Qintou that he still had a master. He looked at Old Qintou curiously and then put the question behind him.

The five people gathered around the porcelain stove and started the second round. The content of the conversation this time was mainly about the two old men in the old forest.

"...Let me tell you, the snow fell and woke everyone up in the middle of the night, and then we started to light all the fires that could be lit! No matter men, women, old or young, all crowded together, Only then did we resist until dawn. Who would have thought that there would be such a heavy snow in the Jiangnan border, but fortunately, we had enough preparations there, or we brought a lot of things. When we came together the next morning, everyone was stunned. What's the name of that beautiful little girl, her hands are swollen like peaches from the cold." Mr. Chi said with a sigh when talking about the heavy snowfall last time.

"Has the snow in the forest melted now?" Wen Xu asked after taking a couple of mouthfuls of fish head from a fish head.

"No, it's too difficult to get out on two legs. We took the wind and came out with comrades from the army," said old man Chi.

"We are alright, but we don't know how the animals in this old forest survived. There is such a heavy snow and it can't be melted. If it comes to spring next year, I don't know how many animals, big and small, will be killed by the snow." Chi After the old man finished speaking, he continued to sigh.

What Wen Xu didn't expect was that Mr. Jia was very open-minded. While eating his vegetables, he replied: "As long as we humans don't intervene, animals can always find a way. This is how nature is. Survival of the fittest. Although Many died, but the smartest and strongest animals that survived will pass on their genes, so that the survival of the fittest is the way to go.”

Wen Xu didn't care about the survival of the fittest, he really cared about the Overlords he released, so he opened his mouth and asked, "How about the Overlords you studied?"

"It's a pretty good life. The best thing about this winter is that it's much easier to observe them than before. They are covered in black skin. It's easy to spot them if you walk on the snow," Mr. Jia said.

Hearing that she is doing well, Wen Xu feels relieved here.

Just drinking one cup at a time, in order to fight against the weather, Wen Xu's side can no longer be as careful as before, and there is no one to serve wine, so if you want to drink, you can find someone to touch it, and if you don't want to drink, you can put down the glass and chat. In such a free atmosphere, Wen Nu overwhelmed herself.

After eating and drinking, and seeing off everyone, Wen Xu couldn't stand it any longer, and went straight into the room, fell down with a slap, and fell asleep.
