The cold wind made Zuo Shaoyang shudder and hurriedly closed it. After waiting for a while, he slowly opened the door. Looking out, he saw a narrow alley outside the door passing through the door. It was dark and it was hard to see clearly on both sides. However, there was white snow on the ground, and with the reflection of the snow, he could see the vicinity clearly. Opposite the alley was a high blue brick wall, which was about two meters high, so I couldn't figure out who was behind.

Zuo Shaoyang turned around and placed the oil lamp on the stove, carefully opened the door. He didn't want to make a sound, but the wooden door still creaked and made a sour sound. After listening, the inner room did not respond, he felt relieved, and walked out of the back door sideways and slowly pulled the door up.

Standing outside the door, I suddenly felt a chill on my face. I stretched out my hand and found that it was snowflakes. I guess the snow was still falling. I looked up and saw that there were snowflakes falling in the dim night sky. The snow in the alley was shining with white light. Zuo Shaoyang shrank his sleeves and his neck, looked left and right, and walked to the right.

The snow on the ground made the pedestrians step on ice, which was a bit slippery. He could only hold the cold blue brick wall with one hand and walk forward slowly.

Not long after walking, the high wall disappeared, turned into a wooden wall, and the house was much shorter. After walking forward for a while, a smell of shit and urine came from a small corner that was concave. I looked at it and seemed to be a toilet. I quickly slap my nose. I accelerated my pace and walked forward for a while, and then I arrived at the intersection of the alley. The dark and dark lights were so dark that I didn't know where to go. It was quiet around me, and I guess it was almost two o'clock. I didn't dare to walk away, so I turned around and walked back, walked through the back door of my medicine shop, and continued to move forward. Some of the high and low houses along the way were still on. Occasionally, I could hear the crying, talking, and barking of dogs in the houses on both sides of the alley.

When he reached the front, there was a T-shaped alley. He stood there and looked around. The two alleys were dark, as if the eyes of monsters in the darkness were not only a little scared, but he quickly turned around and touched the wall and returned to the back door of the medicine shop, pushed the door into the house, and inserted the door.

His body was cold and his nostrils were itchy again. He sneezed several times. He was afraid of waking up his parents, so he covered his mouth and slapped him even more uncomfortable. He hugged his shoulders and stomped off the snow slag on his feet. He found that the shoulders were cold. He reached out and touched them and found that they were all snowflakes. In just a short while, his body was covered with snowflakes, and it seemed that it was snowing a lot.

He groped and returned to the house and climbed up the stairs. He thought that the ancient nights were really boring, working from sunrise to sunset, there was no nightlife, nor did he have to save money on the Internet cafes, computers, TV and movies at home. He had to save money on oil lamps, and he didn't have the conditions to read some books. It was boring, so he could only sleep.

Zuo Shaoyang knelt on the bed and took off his robe. There was only a set of close-fitting clothes inside. He shivered and covered the robe on the quilt. The other end of the bed was leaning against the window lattice. A cold wind poured in through the crack of the window, so sleeping upside down can ensure that his head was not affected by the wind. He blew out the light, climbed to the other end and crawled in, his whole body curled, curled into a ball, and shivered in the quilt.

He thought that it would soon become warm when he was huddled in the quilt, but after a while, he found that the quilt was still as cold as an ice cave, and his nose began to flow clear and itchy. He couldn't help but sneeze several times with "A snee".

The sneeze caused a stomachache. I guess I had just gone out for a walk, and my stomach might have caught a cold and felt very uncomfortable. I still couldn't sleep for a while. My stomach hurt more and more. I had to go to the toilet, so I had to get up and put on a geese jacket to go to the toilet. I just found the location of the toilet, right in the alley behind. I was about to go down the stairs, but suddenly I remembered what aftermath should I use after going to the toilet? Don't expect toilet paper, use a small stick of branches? It's disgusting to think about it. He subconsciously touched around with his hands, touched the man Zuo Gui's handwritten medical book on the partition, and was delighted, so he used it. This thing is full of errors. The things he remembers in his stomach are a hundred times stronger than it, and it's useless to keep it. This paper is very soft rice paper, which is just right for toilet paper.

I took a book and pulled off a few of them, kneaded them into a ball, touched the stairs, and then reached the kitchen, opened the back door, and walked along the alley to the toilet. I opened the wooden door and locked the door. I was about to untied my clothes, but I realized that it was too troublesome to go to the toilet when I went to the toilet. After a long time of struggle, I finally understood why the ancients called entering the toilet changing. This robe and long skirt were really inconvenient to go to the toilet, so I had to change my short shirt.

On the night of the cold winter twelfth month, it is convenient to be in the ancient toilets with wind leaks everywhere. This taste is really uncomfortable.

After finally finishing it, I finished it and put on my robe and touched the darkness. When I was frozen with my bare butt, I felt even more uncomfortable. I couldn't help but sneezes in a series, which was particularly loud in the quiet night. I hurriedly covered my mouth with my hands, touched my back into the stairs, took off my robe and got into the quilt, and curled up into the quilt. My teeth kept fighting, my nose was flowing, and my sneezes sounded one after another.

He felt a chill all over his body, and his nose was not even circulating. He felt a pulse like driftwood. He had a cold and had a heart to get up and find some medicine to take, but the medicines in ancient times were almost all decocted and taken. When he was sick of cold, he could not move.

At this moment, the door below was pushed open with a creaking sound. Liang stood at the door with an oil lamp: "Zhong'er, what's wrong with you? It's cold? It must be that it was shaking outside on the snowy day just now. It's frozen!" As he said that, he slowly climbed up the stairs.

Zuo Shaoyang poked his head out of the quilt: "I'm fine... Ah snee! Ah snee!" His snot was full of saliva, and he hurriedly said: "Is there any paper? I'll wipe my snot!"

"How can I wipe it with paper!" Liang took a handkerchief from his armpit and handed it to Zuo Shaoyang, "Here, wipe it!"

Zuo Shaoyang trembled and got up, reached out to take the handkerchief and blow his nose with his bare arms.

When Liang saw this, he exclaimed: "Oh! Why did you take off your robe? No wonder you caught a cold, so why don't you put on your clothes quickly! Mom is going to make ginger soup for you!" After that, he took the oil lamp and went down the stairs.

Only then did Zuo Shaoyang realize that there was no cotton in the Tang Dynasty, and poor families had no money to buy silk quilts, so they could not keep warm in the cold winter, so they could only sleep like a blouse. They took off their coats and quilts, and no wonder they didn't keep warm. They quickly got up and put on the robe and curled up into the quilt. Although it was still very cold now, it felt better than before.

I heard Zuo Gui's voice in the main hall again, "He was suffering from a cold, and the ginger soup is useless, so use Mahuang soup!"

Zuo Shaoyang stuck out his head and said, "My nose is blocked, so I can leave my nose clear, and add some Xanthium and Xinyi!"

"What do you know!" Zuo Gui raised his voice, "Cover the quilt quickly!"

Liang asked: "Would you like to add Cangaroozi and Xinyi?"

Zuo Gui paused, and then whispered: "Plus!"

"oh."

After a while, he saw the oil lamp coming in again. Liang put the oil lamp on the cooking stove, slowly climbed up the stairs with a large bowl, and said to Zuo Shaoyang: "Zhong'er, come on, drink the medicine, your father prescribed it for you, take the medicine, and just have a good sleep."

Zuo Shaoyang trembled all over, got up, took the steaming medicine, and drank it all in one breath.

I heard Zuo Gui's voice coming from the door below: "Cover the quilt with him, cover him and sweat!"

Zuo Shaoyang looked down and saw Zuo Gui hunching his back slightly, holding a quilt in his hand, looking at him with his head tilted. The cold wind that came in from somewhere blowing his gray goat beard. Under the swaying oil lamp, it floated and lit up, a bit like an old god in the painting.

Looking at their concerned expressions, Zuo Shaoyang remembered that he was sick when he was a child, and his parents also sat on the head of the bed, watching him take medicine. Not only did his nose feel sore, but his eyes were filled with tears, and he finally choked and said, "Dad! Mom! I'm fine!"

Liang smiled slightly, took the medicine bowl from him, and said softly: "Lear down quickly! Cover and sweat, just sleep!"

"Yes!" Zuo Shaoyang retracted into the quilt, and soon, he felt a heavier weight on his body, and felt that Liang was spreading the quilt on him. He suddenly felt warm, not knowing whether it was because of the quilt or the warmth of family affection.

Listening to Liang's ladder, he could not hear the sound of closing the door for a moment. Zuo Shaoyang couldn't help but stick his head out. Seeing that the two elders were still looking up at him, his face was full of concern, he said in a hoarse voice: "Dad! Mom! You guys hurry up and go to bed, be careful of catching a cold. I'm fine."

"Okay!" Liang said, "If you feel uncomfortable, just call us!"

"Um!"

The door closed and the darkness returned to the room.
