I had a lot of food for dinner, but it didn't affect my appetite for winter warmth.
After dinner and cleaning up, everyone went back to their respective rooms to rest.
Dong Sanchun was very tired today, and he didn’t hear any news, so he took a chance and whispered to Dong Nuan: "There is no news today, and there is..."
At the end of the story, Dong Sanchun was a little embarrassed, but he still scratched his head and asked in a low voice: "When do I have to dig?"
This kind of work is really not done by humans in the summer, and it is really unbearable through winter and spring.
Regarding this, Dong Nuan thought for a while and whispered: "Then do you want to dig ditches under the sun in summer, or move stones against the cold wind in winter?"
The Dayue Dynasty had to serve twice a year, once in summer and once in winter, to avoid busy farming and spring planting.
Upon hearing Dong Nuan's question, Dong Sanchun's expression split, then quickly closed it again, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay."
Now that he has taken over the job for the fourth child, the fourth child will have to do the corvee work in the winter.
Thinking about the feeling of the icy cold wind blowing on the body, Dong Sanchun felt that digging ditches was actually quite good.
After a brief exchange, the father and daughter separated again.
Mrs. Dong Wu was particularly happy tonight because Dong Yao had given her a boost.
The more this happened, the more she valued Dong Yao's studies. Now she no longer said unkind words about Dong Nuan. Without Dong Nuan's attention, Dong Yao would not have been able to learn so fast.
"Nuanya, I heard that your uncle brought back a piece of honey some time ago. When I get some back tomorrow, I can make some water for you and Yaobao to drink." Dongwu didn't have anything good in her hand, but she
You can shamelessly go back to your parents' house to beg for some.
Dong Nuan didn't say anything about this, but Dong Yao wanted to clap her hands in agreement, but when she saw Dong Nuan's smiling eyes, she was so scared that she lay back on the kang motionless, for fear that Dong Nuan would ask another question and make him recite it again.
Book once.
Wow, it’s so difficult to endorse!
The family quickly went to bed, but there seemed to be constant noise in Uncle Dong's house downstairs, which even reached Uncle Dong's house next door, and Aunt Dong even cursed a few times.
In the end, Mrs. Dong couldn't stand it anymore and yelled, and the family became calm.
Early the next morning, Dong Nuan got up early.
She made an appointment with Hanjianglou to go up the mountain to pick up tree roots, stumps and the like today.
When the warmth of winter passes, Hanjiang Tower is already ready.
He was carrying a large basket on his back for easy loading when he came back, and in his hand was an oil paper bag containing the breakfast he had brought for Dong Nuan.
There are three soft and soft millet pancakes. Although they are only about the size of a palm, the millet powder is finely ground and the pancakes are very fragrant. Eggs are also mixed into them, making them delicious and soft.
In addition to millet cakes, Hanjianglou also brought two pieces of cheese and a tube of sugar water filled from a bamboo tube.
"Brother, have you eaten?" Dong Nuan felt that it was very polite to call her the eldest brother of the Han family. As she calmly took a breath, she changed her words.
Hanjianglou paused slightly when he was called "big brother", but he quickly came to his senses and said with a smile: "I've eaten."
His breakfast was much simpler, consisting of millet and corn mixed with some mixed beans, and some green vegetables leaves to boil into a small bowl, which completely eliminated his snoring.
Hanjianglou feels that he is a rough guy and can fill his stomach, while Dongnuan is a little girl who has not lived a good life, so she needs to be more refined.
Knowing that Hanjianglou had eaten, Dongnuan nodded, ate one and a half millet pancakes, ate cheese, drank two sips of water, and quickened his pace.
She doesn't have a big appetite originally, but these are enough.
The rest of Hanjianglou was put into the basket, and then he followed her and quickened his pace.
Because the tools still needed three days, the two of them went up the mountain every day to find suitable tree roots during these three days. They even picked peaches for two days in between. After all, some peaches were already ripe and would rot on the trees if they were not picked.
.
After picking them off, Hanjianglou took them to the town to sell them.
Although fruit is not a necessity, rich men are greedy for it and will buy it when they see it.
Therefore, Hanjianglou also sold the peaches during those two days at high prices.
Three days later, the tool came out.
Hanjianglou went to pick it up in the morning, and picked up Dongnuan from school at noon.
In the past two days, Old Man Dong paid close attention to the homework of several children. Dong Chang's head had already healed. He dragged Bu Ai to school, but was frightened by Old Man Dong's cold face and went there with his neck shrunk.
Because Dong Yao is studying well, there is no need for Dong Nuan to stay at home and assist Old Man Dong, so she can go out freely at noon.
"I don't know what a girl can do when she goes out and runs around every day." The second wife has become more and more dissatisfied with the third room recently, especially when she sees Dong Nuan going out every day for nothing, and Hanjiang Tower always gives her food, which makes her angry.
Even more unsatisfactory.
In the past two days, the second aunt had a thought more than once: Why is it not Dong Xing who is engaged to Hanjianglou?
Although she doesn't like Hanjiang Tower's conditions, this man does love people.
"The buns are so good that even the dog misses them!" Looking at Dong Nuan's cheerful figure as she left, Ernie gritted her teeth in anger, but in the end she had to come back and face the reality that she still couldn't memorize books in winter.
Second Auntie felt miserable, even worse than eating coptis.
"Brother." After the winter warmth came over, he called out naturally.
Hanjianglou showed the retrieved tool to Dong Nuan. Dong Nuan took it into his hand and tried the feel, and it seemed to be pretty good.
"Come on, let's get started. Brother, follow me and learn. This thing is not easy. Just get started slowly." Wood carving can be learned in a few months if you are talented, but it can take a few years if you are not talented.
Still feel nothing.
Carving something requires not only dexterity, but also strong spatial imagination.
Because for many things, even if I draw a picture for you, if you don’t have imagination, it will be difficult to carve out the desired direction and items on a piece of wood.
The two of them got started quickly. Dong Nuan didn't carve a big piece just for the sake of feeling, so she carved two small gourds, which looked very small and cute.
After finishing the carving, he looked at Hanjiang Tower again and found that he was still getting used to carving. Dong Nuan also gave him a few words of encouragement.
After the encouragement, Dong Nuan thought of another thing: "By the way, brother, didn't you say you were going to the county for a few days?"
Hearing Dong Nuan ask, Hanjianglou smiled and said, "Something happened to the owner's family, so we won't send the things for the time being."
Having said this, Hanjianglou paused for a moment and then said: "Even if nothing happens, I am not going to go. I raise sheep at home and it is inconvenient to be away from people."
In the past, there were just a few chickens, so it didn't matter. The atmosphere in Xiaowan Village was pretty good, and there were only two people who were careless. If something really happened, they would arrest the people, beat them up, and return the chickens honestly.
Hanjiang Tower has encountered this kind of thing before.
But as for sheep...
Hanjiang Tower is not prepared to take risks.
