first day of the lunar year.

Zhou Li woke up from a deep sleep, feeling an unusually warm blanket that made him reluctant to leave.

Just missing one Tuanzi adult.

Because cats have a slightly higher body temperature than humans, if there is a Tuanzi adult present, the bed will always be warmer. Tuanzi adult is actually a winter artifact.

Nan should sleep extra warm, right?

Zhou Li felt a bit uneasy in his heart.

Ha~

He yawned and decided to get up, but before getting up, he extended one hand out of bed and felt the cool morning air, then knocked on the wooden frame at the head of the bed

Dudu

The presence of the upper bunk compresses the overhead space, resulting in insufficient lighting inside the room. However, Zhou Lifei does not feel suppressed, but instead has an inexplicable sense of security.

A head poked out and stared at him with some dissatisfaction, "What kind of knock? Do you think I slept until now like you? I went out and circled around and came back

Without teleportation, I can't stop your restless heart from wandering around

Nothing can stop it

Is that so? "Zhou Li glanced at the curtains, knowing he must have jumped from the window." I'll install the anti-theft window

I'll dismantle it for you! Let's see if you install it faster or I dismantle it faster

Are you amazing

Zhou Li pulled the blanket over his head, closed his eyes, woke up from drowsiness, and then spoke up again:

How's it going outside

It's quite lively

I have already heard the sound of gongs and drums beating

Not bad, my ears are almost one hundredth of mine

I've learned how to use one hundredth, "Zhou Li pursed his lips and pondered for a moment." One hundredth plus three sevenths plus five nineths, minus two fifths, what's the difference

Bored

Huai Xu's head shrank back.

Zhou Li smiled and lifted the blanket to get up.

Open the curtains and keep the windows wide open, this is the reason why the room temperature is so low.

The world is shrouded in a thick mist. The sound of banging drums and gongs came from a faraway place, so faint that normal people couldn't hear them, and naturally their figures couldn't be seen. But I think it must be a New Year promotion for some shopping mall or real estate project, right? Perhaps this old monster even joined in the fun, wondering if he had received eggs or a stainless steel basin.

The weather forecast says it's a good day today.

The weather in Yancheng is always like this. Most of the winter is shrouded in haze, but there is always sunshine during the Chinese New Year, which makes it warmer.

After coming back and putting on his clothes, there was a computer, several books, a weekly journal, a diary, a pen holder with a few pens inserted, a desk calendar, and a bottle of ink on the desk. Zhou Li picked up the desk calendar and flipped to a new page, glanced at it, couldn't help but smile, and turned to Huai Xu, saying:

This month's lunar and Gregorian dates are synchronized again

Huai Xu turned over upon hearing this, and the wooden bed creaked. He looked at Zhou Li again from the upper bunk:

Is that so

Hmm

Show me

Here

Zhou Li picked up the calendar and handed it to him.

Huai Xu stretched out his hand and took it, his arm slender and fair, and carefully examined it in front of him.

Actually, there's nothing to be proud of. Of course, Zhou Li wouldn't lie to him. No, Zhou Li has lied to him not once or twice, but he wouldn't lie to him about this kind of thing, and it's not fun. He just remembered three years ago like Zhou Li did, and there was also a month when Zhou Li said the same thing.

They had only just met recently at that time.

Huai Xu also finds it interesting.

If you watch it again, it will be even more interesting.

Ten o'clock in the morning.

Zhou Li picked up a box of Maotai and two other gifts, went to Nan Ge's house to pay New Year's greetings, and prepared to also pay New Year's greetings to Mr. Ma.

He has been to Nan Ge's house more than once or twice. Nan Ge's parents are both very good people with straightforward and talkative personalities. Although he himself is a big and rough person, he does not discriminate against quiet scholars. Zhou Li has been very comfortable with them several times. But during the Chinese New Year, Nan Ge has a lot of family members, some of whom he is not very familiar with, and he cannot hide in Nan Ge's room as usual. Therefore, he can only sit awkwardly in the living room and let Nan Ge's brothers, sisters, uncles, and aunts tease him. There are also two invisible monsters beside him watching him laugh.

Even the adults in the little lion's clothes gathered around him, sniffed on him, and then asked him with concern:

Zhou Ni, what's wrong with you

Zhou Li had no choice but to pick her up and vigorously pat her, while shifting his attention and creating a performance of 'I'm focused on petting the cat, don't come to me for chat'.

It didn't get better until the afternoon.

Zhou Li came to Nan Ge's room and found that she had set up a mini bed in the room, which was too small for cats to sleep on, probably for dolls. The decoration was extremely gorgeous, which could cater to the aesthetic preferences of little girls who like to dress up and have princess dreams. Unless it was unexpected, it was the bed of Prince Yu.

It's quite exquisite

Really? I chose it, "Nan Ge proudly said," I ran to several supermarkets

It looks very comfortable

The fabric is also very good, it's so warm. I want to sleep on it, hehe! "Nan Ge smiled twice and teased," Is this year fun

Fun, "Zhou Li said expressionlessly.

Is it really fake? "Nan Ge looked incredulous.

The fireworks were very beautiful last night, but unfortunately only last night, and there haven't been many people setting them off since then

I'll let it go to you later, "Nan said, then blinked at him and joked," What else? Did you have fun today

Fun, "Zhou Li nodded," Mr. Tuanzi's little lion costume is very festive

What else is there

There's nothing left

Two question marks appeared on Nan's forehead, "Isn't I cute? You've already mentioned Tuanzi

Today is not cute

Bang

Zhou Li's heart remained calm, even feeling that she hadn't eaten enough.

Tuanzi walked unsteadily over again. She was dressed like a lion dancing today, wearing a red outfit with a golden tassel hanging from it and a decorative little bell around her neck. As she walked, she swayed all over her clothes, looking extremely cute.

Until she stopped in front of Zhou Li, she lifted her head and looked at him with a pair of deep blue eyes. Crispy, she said, "Zhou Ni, you've been beaten again

Zhou Li's eyes were cuted by her.

……

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, in the evening.

Today is also a good day, with a bright moon hanging in the sky, casting a cold moonlight. The small mountain village is quiet and clear under the moonlight, occasionally with a thin mist drifting in a corner.

A brazier was burning in the hall, bringing some warmth.

Nan Ge and Huai Xu were holding meat skewers in their hands, while Tuan Zi and His Royal Highness Yu Wang were watching without blinking. Zhou Li was holding a shovel to shovel charcoal in his hand, but turned his head to look at the other side. Miss Zheng was lying on a bamboo woven lounge chair covered with blankets, with her eyes closed. Accompanied by Qinghe, she received treatment from Lord Daomin.

Are you almost done? "Huai Xu said.

Bake it a little more, this meat is fat. Fat meat needs to be roasted to taste good, "said Nan Ge.

I'll eat first later, "His Royal Highness Yu Wang said without a doubt.

Your Highness, eat first! Lord Tuanzi comes second! "Tuanzi crisply shouted and then gave her own reason," Because Lord Tuanzi's status is also very prestigious

Cut it

Hehe

Child, add fire! What are you looking at

Oh, oh

Zhou Li quickly withdrew his gaze and added two small pieces of charcoal, controlling its position to prevent it from igniting an open flame.

When he looked towards Miss Xiao Zheng again, Lord Dao Min had already withdrawn his hand and let out a long breath.

Immediately, Miss Zheng opened her eyes

The mist disappeared, and those were a pair of extremely clear eyes, as if emitting light, without any dust in this turbid world.

The first thing that caught her eye was Qinghe, who was closest to her and bent down to look at her, followed by Daomin, who took a step back. Both figures were very clear, as usual. At this moment, the world in her eyes was already different from usual, but she did not immediately come to observe this novel world. Instead, she shifted her gaze to several familiar figures.

These figures are also very clear, except for Zhou Li and Nan Ge's clothes, there is not much difference from usual.

Zhou Li stared at her and stared into her eyes for a long time:

How do you feel

Upon hearing this, Miss Zheng smiled as quietly as usual, but her eyes seemed brighter and her voice was small yet gentle

There is currently no difference

How could that be

Temporarily

Until the others and demons turned around, Miss Zheng looked at them again before withdrawing her gaze and turning her head to look elsewhere.

The charcoal fire turned red, stained with tiny flames that swayed, unreal but textured.

Occasionally, Mars erupts.

The grilled meat sizzled with fine oil bubbles, sprinkled with tiny seasoning powder.

Outside the door is night, it's mountain night.

The night under the moonlight is not a blurry black, it reflects the color of the roof of the mountain village, the shape of the mist, and outlines the undulating contours of the mountains. The cumulus clouds in the valley resemble a large lake, and the moon hanging in the sky is not a blurry light. It has mountains, undulations, and patterns on it.

……

Some of them were seen during a brief exchange of vision with them before, while others were not. Thinking that she would always have such a pair of eyes, she couldn't help but feel a bit unreal

Perhaps it will disappear in a few days like before?

Miss Zheng withdrew her gaze.

Ah! Ah! Ah

The crow flapped its wings and flew by, making a rough sound.

Here, the crow is a symbol of good fortune, not bad luck. This crow is extremely spiritual, perhaps celebrating for Miss Zheng, or perhaps feeling regret that the evil god who brought it wisdom and light to Miss Zheng did not see this scene.
