As a Northeasterner, why was he frozen like a "dog" in the South?

What is your least favorite season of the year? Xiaohui’s answer must be winter, no other answer!

Xiao Hui is a girl born and raised in the Northeast. Thinking about it, she has experienced nearly 20 years of cold winters in the Northeast, with temperatures ranging from 20 to 30 degrees below zero. After going to college somewhere in the south, she fully understood what it was like to be defeated by the cold. Even though she had been here for almost 10 years, she was still dominated by the unbearable cold every winter.

In the first year of college, it was also the first winter Xiaohui spent in Shanghai. There was a local, a Yunnanese and an Anhui native in the dormitory. As a Northeastern person, Xiao Hui firmly believes that she must be the one who is least afraid of the cold. When she heard from the locals that the coldest time in winter is minus 5 degrees Celsius, Xiao Hui became even more complacent.

Southerners are very curious and surprised about the winter in the Northeast, which is around minus 30 degrees Celsius. Some ignorant people even ask Xiao Hui: I heard that the winter in your place can freeze people’s ears off. Is that true? ?

Xiaohui didn’t know how to answer for a moment: It’s not a problem, because there is a heater at home, it is very warm, and you can wear half-sleeves at home; if you must go out, then arm yourself and wear Just wear a down jacket, a hat and a scarf and you’ll be fine, no problem at all! Then the friends started asking questions about the "heater", a cold-resistant weapon, and everyone was chatting lively.

Over time, Xiaohui had the illusion that "because she is from the Northeast, she is not afraid of the cold." However, it was not long before she was slapped in the face by the coldness of winter in the south. Only then did she realize It turns out that I am the one who is most afraid of the cold.

There is no such thing as a heater in the south, and there was no air conditioning in the dormitory at that time. This resulted in the temperature inside and outside the house being the same. At least there was some sunshine outside at noon. But the room has always been cold and cold; if it is a rainy day, it will be even more difficult, and it will feel colder inside than outside.

In bed at night, her feet were always cold and she couldn't get over it. She couldn't sleep well every day. In order to cope with such a harsh environment, Xiaohui had to take various measures.

Lay several layers of quilts on the bed, then lay a layer of plush blankets, replace the quilt covering the body with an extra-thick one, then lay a layer of blankets on top, and use a hot water bottle to keep the baby warm. This way, finally It could be warmer. Compared with other roommates in the dormitory, Xiaohui's bunk is like a mountain, which is exaggerated, but there's nothing I can do about it, it's really cold!

After Xiaohui’s hard work, getting into bed every day is like going to heaven, so comfortable! However, when you get up in the morning, the feeling of coming out of the warm quilt and the freezing cold feeling in the room makes life worse than death!

After no classes in the afternoon, I couldn’t bear to stay in the dormitory for ten minutes. I felt like the wind was blowing from all directions and it was cold from the inside out. Every time at this time, Xiaohui would go for a walk outside. Although it is equally cold outside, walking around will warm you up, which is better than staying quietly in the dormitory and freezing into an "ice man". So, Xiao Hui endured the winter of his fourth year of college like a warrior.

After graduating from college, Xiaohui rented a house by himself. One of the benefits was that he could finally have air conditioning, which made Xiaohui's life easier in the winter. Be more comfortable. After experiencing the winter in Shanghai, Xiaohui naturally has his own set of measures to prevent the cold. Winter hasn't officially entered yet, so as long as she can feel a little bit of coldness, Xiao Hui has already put on her autumn pants early. It is absolutely impossible to expose her thighs and ankles.

Compared with other colleagues, she is still the one who is most afraid of the cold. I remember one winter when it was very cold. Xiaohui found the box-bottomed down jacket she wore in the Northeast and put it on. Like a little bear, Xiao Hui is really envious of the graceful figures of the white-collar workers wearing elegant coats on the street. However, for his body that is afraid of the cold, in such weather, he wants style rather than warmth. , it can really kill people!

There is an eldest sister in Xiaohui Company. She is almost 40 years old and a native of Shanghai. On the coldest day, she only wore one pair of jeans! Looking at Xiao Hui again, she was already wearing thick long johns and jeans at that time. She asked her eldest sister: Aren't you cold? The eldest sister said: It's not cold, just get used to it. This is how I come here all the time in winter. Seeing the eldest sister's calm and composed expression, which didn't look like she was pretending, Xiao Hui was convinced that she was really not afraid of the cold! !

Xiaohui, who has lived in Shanghai for 10 years, still has not adapted to the cold here. Although he has skated and played in the weather of more than minus 20 degrees in the Northeast, It snows, but I still can’t walk around in a decent coat wearing a decent coat in Shanghai’s minus 5 degree weather; although when I was a child, I often looked forward to spending the winter happily in the southern sun, but I was still frozen to tears by the pattering of light snow in the southern winter. , and finally understood some of the jokes on the Internet: "I am a wolf from the north who froze into a dog in the south", "Northerners rely on heating to survive the winter, and southerners rely on righteousness to survive the winter"...

Someone on the Internet explained: The north is dry and cold, which is a physical attack, so just wear more clothes; the south is wet and cold, which is a magic attack. No matter how much you wear, it is useless.

One thing Xiaohui still can't accept is the need to hold an umbrella when it snows. However, because the snow in Shanghai is always mixed with rain, even if it is pure snow, it will melt in a while and fall. My body was wet, so I still held an umbrella.

Whenever it snows, Xiaohui always thinks of the snow in his hometown. It is very heavy. It feels like it is falling from a basin. It is very refreshing. It falls on the body and falls away.

The sound of crunching feet in the snow is common in the Northeast. Snow has reached the knees. Snow has become a source of happiness for children. It is a paradise of ice and snow.

Winter is coming and the cold is coming. No matter you are in the south or the north, you must keep warm, because having a good body is the most important thing. I also hope that in such an "unfriendly" season Here, you can harvest your own warmth, giving winter a special meaning.
