LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 100 There were also big differences between north and south in ancient times
The news that the Zhao family picked up a group of wild ducks spread throughout the village during dinner.
Most of the villagers' houses have not been repaired. Currently, only the village chief and the Ma family have repaired their houses.
I also specially asked Mr. Zhao to read the almanac and choose a good and auspicious day.
Except for the Zhao family who will live in a new house tonight, the other villagers are still living in sheds in the centralized area.
Zhao Yigui had dinner and took his sister Zhao Yicha out for a walk. As soon as he opened the yard, he saw a crowd of people at the door.
Zhao Yigui was confused, "Aunts, what can I do?"
While Chen Jingzhi was there, the villagers wanted to find the Zhao family, but they didn't dare to knock on the door. Finally, two people came out and quickly stopped them and asked.
"Yi Gui, where did your ducks come from?"
"Is it at the east end of the village or at the back of the mountain?"
"Is there any left?"
Everyone asked questions and wanted to know where the duck came from.
The wild ducks are alert. There are many Zhao family members. If you hurry back, there must be some left.
There was a noise at the door, and Boss Zhao came out to take a look.
When the villagers asked, they didn't hide it.
"I actually saw it in the creek at the east end of the village."
"Wild ducks are often heard calling in the woods opposite. Today, when the children went to the field, they happened to see wild ducks foraging in the stream."
"I was lucky enough to come back."
As soon as he said this, his aunt immediately agreed.
"That's right! When I go to the stream to wash clothes, I often hear the cries of pheasants and wild ducks."
"I don't know how many more there are in the woods across the way!"
After receiving the news, the aunts hurried home.
I have to go back quickly and tell my family that I will go to the stream at the east end of the village more often when I have nothing to do in the future.
Some are even considering going there
Catching in the woods on the other side of the stream.
Zhao Yigui turned around and asked Boss Zhao, "Dad, should we go to the stream to see more in the future?"
Maybe we can still meet him.
Boss Zhao touched Zhao Yigui's head and said, "No need, we are already very lucky."
"Leave something for others."
Zhao Yicha said with a smile, "I have raised so many ducks at home, but I have never raised pheasants or hares!"
"There are many pheasants and hares on the mountain."
"The second uncle and the third uncle are the best at hunting. They will definitely catch a lot."
Zhao Laoer, who was also planning to go out to eat, happened to hear Zhao Yicha's words and burst into laughter.
"Of course, the second uncle and the third uncle are amazing."
"Tomorrow we will go up the mountain to catch pheasants and hares for Cha'er!"
Li Xiuxiu counted the remaining ingredients for today's banquet and prepared them properly. There was not much left.
It will be difficult to walk on the road after heavy snowfall, so I have to go shopping in the town during these few days.
Li Xiuxiu can make cakes. After the strong men who built the house tasted the cakes made by Li Xiuxiu once, they strongly recommended building a stove at home.
The stove is made large, and building an extra stove will not affect it.
It’s much easier to make pastries when you have a stove, and you still have some eggs and flour left.
Li Xiuxiu kneaded the dough early and was waiting to bake some cakes to eat in the evening.
Today is the first day of moving into a new home. In the evening, the family can eat some pastries and chat in the yard.
Zhao Miaomiao put the washed dishes and chopsticks back in an orderly manner.
There are also some borrowed from other people's homes. They have been counted today and will be replaced tomorrow.
He Sutong and Li Yuebai are paying bills and will go to the county for large purchases in the next two days.
The menu and money must be prepared.
Mrs. Zhao helped light the fire in the stove. After the sun went down,
, the night in the village is a bit cold.
Some firewood was burning in the kitchen, it was warm, and Mrs. Zhao smiled contentedly.
Last winter, the Zhao family lived in poverty. Not to mention being like this, they could still make some pastries to eat at night.
Last year, we didn’t have much clothes, not enough cotton-padded clothes, and people were so cold that they didn’t dare to go out, even without a fire.
We didn’t buy enough charcoal fires, so we burned wood for the second half of the winter. It was fine during the day, and we could keep warm in the stove.
I suffered a lot at night. There was no firewood to burn in the room and the smoke was so thick that I couldn't sleep.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhao said: "Buy more charcoal fires this year so that you can burn them to keep warm at night."
Wu Yang was wondering, "The winter here is also cold, why didn't you become an earth dragon?"
"This way you only need to burn one place, and the whole house will be warm."
"Earth dragon?" Li Xiuxiu had never heard of this.
Wu Yang explained, "A fire is lit in the stove and pipes are used to connect the heat to the entire house, so that you can stay warm at night when sleeping."
Li Xiuxiu understood and said, "Oh, how much money does this cost?"
Wu Yang thought about it. He was used to it. Everything in his house was naturally the best. He had never worried about winter issues before.
There is ice in the summer and ground dragons in the winter. It is very comfortable to live in the house all year round.
Li Yuebai remembered a kind of bed that someone had mentioned before.
"I heard that the winter in the north is colder. People can freeze to death without heating at night. No matter how many quilts they put on them, it won't help."
"The bed where people sleep is hollowed out underneath so that they can burn firewood and keep themselves warm while sleeping."
Wu Yang nodded, "The winter in the north is indeed colder. This is my first time coming to Jiangcheng County this year, and I thought the winter in the south won't be that cold."
"I didn't expect this
It hasn't snowed yet, so I have to put on two quilts at night. "
"The kind of bed that Second Auntie mentioned is called a kang. It's really warm when you sleep on it."
Mrs. Zhao added some firewood and thought about the kind of bed Li Yuebai described.
"It's like a pancake? Who's on top, and there's firewood burning below. What if it gets burned?"
Wu Yang sounded a little amused, "Master, of course it won't burn anyone, and it won't cause a particularly strong fever."
Lu Ming was put in a big backpack, and the stove was warm. When the adults were busy, they would put Lu Ming in the backpack and put it under their noses.
Lu Ming thought that it was just a crib. It was said to be a backpack, but it was made bigger.
There is a warm, thick quilt inside, making it very comfortable to lie down on.
Lu Ming slowly turned over and listened to the chatter of the adults in the kitchen.
Thinking about the differences between the north and the south in ancient times, Lu Ming was a southerner in his previous life and had never been to the north.
Listening to what the second aunt said, the place where we are now should also be in the south, and Brother Yang should be from the north.
I had already heard from Brother Nanzhou and Sister Cha that it was going to snow. Lu Ming had never seen snow in his previous life.
It also snows in the south, which is great!
He Sutong said with a smile, "After the Chinese New Year, Chang Rui will be celebrating his second birthday."
Li Xiuxiu glanced at Zhao Changrui, who was sleeping soundly in his backpack.
"This child is sleeping again!"
"I'm almost two years old. How come I still feel so much every day?"
Zhao Changrui has a lot of sleep and doesn't like to move yet. The other children are at this age and have just learned to walk, which is when they become addicted.
Zhao Changrui learns quickly and can walk, but he doesn't like to move. He either sits and plays or lies down to sleep.
It's easy to feed and not noisy, but I still can't stop
Worry about living.
Wu Yang praised: "How good brother Changrui! How well-behaved you are."
"Aunts have never seen my brother, he is too naughty."
"Now I'm two or three years old. It's so noisy that I don't even want to go home."
"He doesn't like to sleep. He makes trouble from day to night every day."
"Sometimes he wakes me up in the middle of the night to play with him."
"It's great that Chang Rui is like this, and Lu Ming is a good baby."
When Wu Yang praised him like this, everyone in the room laughed. Thinking about it, this is also true.
