The teaching time was over, Dongwang and the others went home, and in winter and spring, Hanjianglou stayed at home to eat, but Hanjianglou politely refused.
"I'm going back first, Nuan Ya." Hanjianglou waved to Dong Nuan and prepared to go home.
In fact, he has been tired for a day, but he still doesn't worry about Dong Nuan. He has to see it before he can go back with confidence.
However, since they have come, Dong Nuan is busy here, so he naturally wants to help.
Seeing Hanjianglou about to leave, Dongnuan trotted to the door and quietly stuffed a small melon into Hanjianglou's hand.
This melon was still secretly produced by Dong Nuan behind his back, and he tasted one first. It was not too big, but very sweet.
The big hand of Hanjiang Tower can probably be covered directly. If the winter is warm, some of it will be exposed.
This melon was very delicate and sweet, and Dong Nuan guessed it was a variety grown by a wealthy family nearby.
Hanjianglou was stuffed with melons. He was stunned for a moment. After reacting, he raised his other hand and touched Dongnuan's head: "Then I'll go back first."
He didn't say anything, like Nuan Ya kept it to eat.
Because there are too many words to say, and the little girl also has her own persistence, she will smile particularly happily and well-behaved when she accepts the winter warmth.
Therefore, Hanjiang Tower has learned well now.
"Yeah." Dong Nuan nodded and watched the other party leave. After a while, he returned home.
After dinner, the Dong Nuan sisters and Dong Wu took turns to go to the makeshift shed in the backyard to take a shower.
Dong Sanchun and Dong Yao didn't have such troubles. Dong Yao even took advantage of his young age to stand naked in the backyard and pour water on himself.
Winter warmth:.
It doesn’t matter whether you watch or not when the winter is warm. What is there for a child to watch?
But this habit is not very good. If you are three or four years old, just leave it naked.
It’s just that Dong Yao is already eight years old!
"Keep yourself safe from now on. If you are seen naked like this, you will definitely be laughed at again." Dong Nuan kindly reminded him as she passed by him.
Dong Yao subconsciously covered herself, looked at Dong Nuan with a horrified look, then turned around and looked around.
It was getting dark now, so I couldn't actually see anything. The kerosene lamp at home couldn't shine very far, so I couldn't see clearly whether there was anyone around.
But Dong Yao felt that there was someone who was watching him secretly.
Thinking of this possibility, Dong Yao rushed home, climbed back on the kang, and never dared to come out again.
The days of autumn harvest actually go by very quickly. Everyone is very busy every day and cannot take any time off.
By mid-October, the autumn harvest was completely over, and after the government took away the taxed grain, Old Man Dong presided over the distribution of the family's grain.
This was already agreed upon when the families were divided, and now it only needs to be divided according to a few percent of the amount for each family.
In winter, spring and winter, Wu went home carrying rations, but the rations were actually not much.
Because the rations are also divided according to the rule of providing 70% to the eldest son in old age.
The remaining 30% of the rations were divided among four families, and I knew that one family would not be able to get much.
However, there is no way. This is the normal process of family separation. Every family goes this way. At the beginning, it will be more difficult for each family, but it will get better gradually.
If Tian is also divided, this cannot be divided into seven parts according to the eldest son.
The imperial court allocated land based on head, and at this time, each family also allocated land based on head.
However, due to the insufficient amount of land, the family was only allocated sixteen acres of land in winter and spring, none of which was of high quality. The whole Dong family did not have a few acres of high quality land, all of which were left to Uncle Dong.
After all, the other party is also responsible for raising the two elders, so it is normal to share some high-quality land.
From winter to spring, families are divided into middle and secondary fields.
But it’s good to have fields now, so don’t choose so many.
New fields have been planted, but now nothing can be planted.
Although the climate in Xiaowan Village is pretty good, it is still very cold in winter, so if you want to grow winter vegetables, conditions do not allow it.
These fields can only wait for the Chinese New Year to be plowed and replanted.
After the autumn harvest, every family is almost free.
Dong Nuan and Dong Yao returned to school again, while Hanjiang Lou began to travel frequently in the village and town.
In order to make walking easier, he also bought a donkey.
Dong Nuan thinks that Hanjiang Tower can ride a donkey by itself, but if there are many people going there, a cart is still needed.
So, that evening, when it was time for teaching again, Dong Nuan leaned close to Hanjianglou and whispered: "I think we can take a taxi."
"Okay." Hanjianglou naturally has no objection. As long as Dongnuan wants, he will be satisfied as much as possible.
"Just in time, the general's case and stools are ready, let's build the truck next." Dong Nuan happened to have some free time here, so she muttered a few words in a low voice.
Dongwang and the others are studying, and now they can build a decent bench or bench.
I'm currently learning how to make a nice-looking table and simple plank bed.
Dong Nuan guided them in a planned way, starting from the simplest steps to learn the structure and assembly.
Dongwang and the others studied very seriously, and everyone was quite happy because they had achieved results.
Recently, there are people at Liao's side who are eager to pay tuition and come to study.
But Dong Nuan's teaching has already begun. It is impossible to repeat it like a wheel every day like Master Liao. In that case, Dong Wang and the others would be dissatisfied.
Therefore, those people who came to test Dong Nuan's attitude were rejected by Dong Nuan on the grounds that the number of students for this period was full and they would not accept them for the time being.
While Dongwang and the others were working hard to study and try, Dongnuan and Hanjianglou started to start a cart.
There is no need to draw pictures or anything like that in the warm winter. Hanjiang Tower has now begun to adapt to the rhythm of the warm winter.
He didn't need to draw, but worked hard to learn how to improve his spatial skills and how to memorize pictures in his mind.
The two simply put branches on the ground, drew some sketches, discussed the structure and size, and then decided how to build the cart.
"It doesn't need to be too big."
"I think so, as long as it can pull two or three people. A donkey is different from a horse. The weight a donkey can pull is small. The cart is too big, which is a burden for it. Once it gets angry, it will probably not want to do it.
Alive."
"So, you still have to buy a horse, or at worst a mule." The last sentence was said by Han Jianglou. At first, he decided to buy a donkey, mainly because it was cheap, easy to feed, and easy to walk.
However, if you want to bring winter warmth and other people, the donkey cart will not be enough.
But as for horses...
It takes a lot of money to raise it for a year.
Donkeys are small, eat less than horses, and are more functional, so Hanjianglou chose them.
Now I feel that the donkey is not very useful.
donkey:?
Dong Nuan thought about it and felt that there was no need to buy a horse now. A similar horse would cost about 20 to 30 taels. The cost was too high, and it would cost a lot to raise a horse for a year.
Therefore, Dong Nuan waved his hand: "Let's do this first, and we'll see later."
Dong Nuan’s current goal is not to buy horses or cars, but to buy land.
