What do Sichuanese do in winter?

One is MINUS five degrees in the north outdoor, and the other is MINUS five degrees in Sichuan indoor. Which do you think will be colder?

People with knowledge will say that the former is cold, while people with common sense will say that the latter is cold.

If you don't go to Sichuan in winter, you don't know how cold it is here

Northerners go home, take off their cotton-padded clothes, trousers and hats, and run around the house with a short sleeve. When Sichuanese came home, they were still shivering in cotton shoes, socks and trousers, wrapped in a quilt. For Sichuanese wrapped in quilts, the place outside the quilt is the refrigerator, and the place where they reach out will be frozen. Going to the bathroom is like going to the frontier.

Northerners rely on a room for heating in winter, while Sichuanese rely on a healthy atmosphere in winter.

This place in Sichuan is full of strange phenomena in winter, the most interesting of which is the zoo.

If you go to the zoo in winter, you will find that penguins here will line up to keep warm. Some of them are lying down, some are standing, in short, they are circling around the electric heater. So someone joked that penguins think Chengdu is too cold and want to go back to their hometown to keep warm. The truth is: Penguins in Chengdu Zoo are Magellan Penguins and Spotted Ring Penguins. The former comes from the southern tip of South America and the latter from the southern tip of Africa. They are temperate penguins, and their adaptation temperature is 3 degrees to 10 degrees).

For this cold and humid winter, Sichuanese have long had various countermeasures.

A friend told me that every time his hands get cold, he sits down and puts his hand under his ass. Naturally, his hands are numb and not cold. When you begin to regain consciousness slowly, you will feel a warm feeling. He asked me about this discovery. Even if I win the Nobel Prize in Biology, I can apply for a heating patent.

A friend joked that others gain weight in winter and he loses weight in winter. I eat a lot of hot pots, even pots and mutton soup, but I'm not fat. Later, I remembered that he was shivering in the dark (pronounced tou) and kept warm by shivering.

Most urban residents in the north of Qinhuai Line have heating sheets for baking socks and shoes.

As a native southerner, Beipiao has just arrived in Beijing and is curious about the radiator at home. It's nothing. I just like to put something on it. Wet shoes and socks were put on and baked all night, and the whole room smelled of feet. Later, I learned my lesson. I put breakfast on the radiator before going to bed the night before, and I can eat something hot when I wake up.

Every winter, drying clothes in Sichuan is a big problem. Now there are dryers, hair dryers and heaters to dry. A few years ago, we still kept a honeycomb coal stove to bake socks, insoles and underwear every night, but we didn't change them the next day.

The most impressive scene is when the sun comes out in winter. As long as Chengdu comes out? The sun is baking? Everyone comes out to hold the rope pole, and all the quilts and clothes are taken out to hang outside. That posture is like trying to make up for all the missed sunshine in one breath.

Besides drying clothes, sleeping at home in winter in Sichuan is the biggest test of willpower.

First of all, it takes half an hour to iron your feet, otherwise your hands and feet will get cold as soon as you go to bed and you won't be able to sleep for a long time. Some people with poor health have to wear thick cotton socks or even knee pads to sleep, otherwise their feet will be cold all night.

Looking forward to a good night's sleep when you are not fully prepared and easy to fall asleep. When you are wrapped in a thick quilt and dreaming a sweet dream, you are worried that you will not get up the next morning. It is said that Sichuanese are particularly prone to be late for work in winter, probably because they are too cold to get up in the morning. The quilt is like two different worlds inside and outside, one in the snow in Siberia and the other in the Sahara desert.
