Chapter 123 The long snow day
After a week of continuous snow, everything outside was covered in white and the sky was not clear yet. Even though he loved to enjoy the snow, Qin Zijin was a little tired of it.
The goods in the county had to be delivered. Logically speaking, the goods that went to Fucheng should also have news of their return, so she had to go and have a look.
Looking at how it started to snow here in winter, she had to buy more winter items.
Qin Zijin stood at the door of the kitchen, looking at the snowflakes still flying outside, with a sad look on his face.
Qin Wen came over from the main room and when she saw Qin Zijin, she scolded him, "What's the cold wind blowing while you're standing at the door? Go inside quickly and don't stare at the snow, it's bad for your eyes."
Qin Zijin sighed, turned around and asked, "Grandma, when will it snow?"
Qin Wenshi sighed, "Who knows, it's snowing late this year, and I'm afraid it won't stop for a while."
Qin Zijin responded, "What should I do? I still have to go out."
Qin Wenshi asked in confusion, "What are you doing out in this cold weather?"
Qin Zijin sighed and replied, "There is still business in the county, so I have to go and see it."
Qin Wenshi ignored it. Hearing Qin Zijin talk about it, he responded, "I forgot about this. I don't know when the weather will be fine. Didn't your eldest brother buy a bullock cart? Wait.
If it doesn't snow on any day, ask your elder brother to take it to your county in an ox cart."
Qin Zijin's eyes lit up, "Yes, I'll go to eldest brother's house to have a look."
However, Qin Wenshi caught him in time, "I'm not looking at you, wait until it stops."
Qin Zijin had no choice but to enter the stove room first and sit next to the fire, thinking that it would be very cold if she went out in the snow, so she should wear more clothes.
Then Qin Zijin thought of the hand stove and the muff, and raised his head and looked at Qin Wenshi, "Grandma, do we have a hand stove at home?"
Qin Wenshi shook her head and sighed, "Things from wealthy people, how can we have such precious things in our house?"
Qin Zijin was wondering, isn't the hand stove just like Tang Pozi? What kind of precious thing is it?
But Qin Wenshi said no, so she could only continue to ask, "What about the muff?"
Qin Wenshi thought for a while and responded, "How about you? I'll sew one for you."
It seems that there is none. Qin Zijin shook his head and said, "I will do it myself."
Anyway, it was okay. Qin Zijin decided to do the work on his own, so he found a relatively small foot warmer Tang Pozi and washed it. Then he took out the braiding rope and started gesticulating with Tang Pozi.
But she felt that it would be easy to knit with rope, so she gave up without even thinking twice. She went to find some cloth and cotton, and sewed a piece of clothing for him according to Yubazi's size.
She was gifted with a pair of skillful hands, and although she had never sewed before, she could still find small items like this at her fingertips.
Qin Zijin proudly held it in his hand and shook it. Lu couldn't help but smile and praised, "Your mind is really flexible. When you are so naughty, who knew you were filled with Mrs. Tang, who is even better than that?"
The hand stove looks much more expensive."
Qin Zijin's eyes lit up, and he seemed to smell a business opportunity in this small hand stove, so he asked, "What kind of hand stove have you seen?"
Lu thought for a while and responded, "I only saw it once on the street in the county town. It's so small that you can't see it clearly when you hold it in your hand."
Qin Zijin tilted his head and looked at Bai Yunge next to him, and asked in a low voice, "Aren't the people wearing clothes on the stove outside?"
Bai Yunge was stunned for a moment, then realized the meaning of wearing clothes, and then responded in a low voice, "If you go to the county town, go to the shop selling hand stoves and you will know."
Then Qin Zijin made a muff according to the size of the hand stove, then stuffed the hand stove into the muff, put his two hands into the muff, and said with satisfaction, "Not bad."
Qin Zijin thought that if he put some thought into this aspect, it might be a good business in winter.
Thinking like this, Qin Zijin couldn't wait. When the snow stopped falling outside in the afternoon, she wrapped herself in a thick cotton jacket, took her newly made hand warmer and muff, and followed Bai Yunge out.
Door.
Halfway through, Qin Zijin suddenly asked out of curiosity, "Where are your secret guards staying in such a freezing and snowy environment?"
Bai Yunge responded, "I asked them to go to the inn in the town."
Qin Zijin nodded and said, "That's good."
If you stay outside in this weather, you won't freeze to death, and in such a cold weather, no one would be able to think of trouble Bai Yunge at this time.
As soon as they passed by, Bai Yunge was pulled to the main room by Qin Xuedong, while Qin Zijin was pulled by Qin Baoli to sit next to the charcoal brazier in the side room and talk, "You guys moved over there. Why is it that it's snowing now to feel isolated from the world? You
If you don’t come, I will go find you.”
Qin Zijin smiled and asked, "Do you have a problem with me?"
Qin Baoli responded, "We have prepared two hundred pieces of goods. When do you plan to deliver them?"
Qin Zijin responded, "I'm here for this too. Have you delivered tofu to the county in the past few days?"
Qin Baoli sighed, "It's a trip every two days. It's difficult to drive an ox cart in this snowy day. It can't be pulled too heavy, but the goods in the county have to be supplied. Going back and forth every two days makes my brother very tired."
At this time, Qin Baozhen also came over and answered, "I thought, running back and forth like this is not an option. I happened to rent the location of the restaurant. Why not move there in advance to avoid running back and forth like this every day? Zijin, what do you think?
Woolen cloth."
Qin Zijin agreed and said, "This is a good idea. Have you discussed it with my eldest brother?"
Qin Baozhen responded, "He was so busy running back and forth that I didn't even have time to mention it to him. He should be back soon, so I'll tell him."
Qin Zijin responded, "Then it's a coincidence that I'm here. I happen to be looking for my eldest brother."
At this time, Zhao Wan, Wu Ying and Qin Chen also came over. Zhao Wan saw the muff on Qin Zijin's hand at a glance and said with a smile, "Your muff is quite nice."
Qin Zijin responded with a smile, "It's not good enough. It would be better to make it out of fur to keep it warm, but I have thought of a way."
As he said this, Qin Zijin took out the hand warmer hidden in the hand cage.
Qin Baoli looked curious and reached out to take it. Her eyes lit up when she felt the warmth, "What do you have in this? It's so warm?"
Qin Zijin smiled and said, "Mr. Tang."
Qin Baoli exclaimed, "You really know how to think."
Wu Ying on the side agreed, "I really don't know how you got such a smart brain."
Qin Zijin replied proudly, "Not bad, I plan to sell this set in a store and try it out."
Zhao Wan nodded in agreement, "It's cold now, you can try it."
