The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 111 Winter Plan
Before Jing Li could speak, Tie Hua'er stood up excitedly and said, "Ah Li must think it's okay. Then I'll join Ah Li to kill one, and chop two of them together."

The old blacksmith covered his eyes: "Hua'er, sit down quickly, you're making me dizzy."

The fat aunt clapped her hands: "Yes, it's okay even if you are injured. We have Dr. He who can't die."

Dr. Xiao He is very sad. He is really not a miracle doctor who can bring the dead back to life.

Zhu Chengcai started tremblingly: "In times of chaos, killing is out of necessity. Now in peacetime, you are still thinking of killing and robbing. What is the difference between you and bandits?"

Mrs. Ge glared at him and said angrily: "Taiping? Which of your eyes are looking at Taiping? Do you really want Taiping to be replaced in a good place?"

"The big pork ribs in the inn, if we Ali hadn't been alert, you might have eaten them, right?"

"Then the people in the east corner pushed us into a corner. Is it the Taiping people's fault?"

Zhu Chengcai's face turned red as he was squeezed and yelled at by several old ladies, but he had nothing to say.

Jingli had to stand up: "Okay, everyone, listen to me."

"It's different now than on the road. On the road we robbed things, killed people and left. No one recognized us, and there was nowhere to look for us."

"It's different now. We have settled down and are registered with the government. If something happens, the whole village will not be able to run away."

Jing Li continued: "Last month we spent a lot of money because we settled down and bought food reserves until February next year. We also have a lot of things to do. We definitely can't do that this month."

"This winter, making money is very important, and the training of young adults in the village is also a top priority. We can't wait for the horse bandits to come over and catch us blind."

The weather is gradually getting colder, and the people in Jingjia Village are not idle at all. They practice in three groups every day. Some of them follow Guard Shen into the mountains to hunt, and then practice sword skills in the mountains.

Those who stay at home have to weave baskets and straw mats, grow vegetables in greenhouses, learn to prepare medicinal materials from He Ziyu, and learn to process prey skins from Zhao Orion.

There are also people who go out to buy and sell with Wanbaoquan. When they go out, they can't just buy and sell. They also have to learn to inquire about the outside situation and analyze the outside situation.

Many men attended Zhu Chengcai's literacy class in the evening. Many men said that this was the most difficult task, bar none.

This winter, the people of Jingjia Village who have just settled down are really busy.

Five greenhouses have been built in the yard, and they need to be built more on the edge of the yard wall, one at a time, so that food can be guaranteed in the winter.

The charcoal must be burned continuously without stopping, and a charcoal basin must be placed in the greenhouse. Although the north is cold, the frozen soil is not as thick as in the Northeast. It is still possible to burn some charcoal in winter.

The old blacksmith's blacksmith's furnace must also be set up, and more swords and other things must be prepared, and farm tools must be opened for spring use.

The collected herbs must be processed in time, and the fur must be salted as soon as possible. It is business to take these things out and exchange them for money as soon as possible.

At the end of each month, everyone will be assessed on various aspects such as hand and foot skills, trauma treatment, basic pharmacological knowledge, and literacy. The top scorer will receive a prize.

The prize is one tael of silver, and it is open to all men, women, and children.

This tael of silver greatly aroused everyone's enthusiasm. Even the old men and old ladies were eager to try it.

At the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, women began to be busy pickling cabbage and radish strips, pickling sauerkraut, and smoking bacon.Several greenhouses were built at different times. Some are already edible, while others are still small seedlings that continue to make the ground empty.

"We threw away all those big vats in Wuzuishan. Now it would be great if we could use them to pickle sauerkraut!" Mrs. Su and her fat aunt were sitting in the yard, cutting radish strips and chatting.

Hang the cut radish strips directly and slowly dry them, then use them to stew bacon.

"Don't tell me, there are a lot of good things on that mountain. We have to be on our way at that time, otherwise it would be great to move them all back!"

While Mrs. Ge was talking, she and Mrs. Fan cut open the washed Chinese cabbage, sprinkled it with fine salt, and arranged them neatly in the jar layer by layer.

Jing Damei said while hanging radish strips on the rope: "Ah Li Niang, there will be an assessment this month. I guess your A'ye is the best in reading and writing again."

Su Shi responded with a smile: "His second aunt, you said this a little too early. I heard Ah Li say that Dewen and Dalang are also very good at studying, and your two boys are also studying very well with Dr. He. "

Jing Damei curled her lips: "My two idiots, how can they compare with Dalang and the others? That is to say, Dr. He doesn't mind them and taught them more about herbal medicine recognition."

The fat aunt pushed the carrot stick in front of her: "You know how to bury the pillars and locks. I can see that the pillars are ready to follow Dr. He to make medicine. What else do you want?"

"Ouch! That's great. It's so expensive to buy medicine these days. Now that Zhu Zhu has learned it, even if Dr. Xiao He leaves for something, we don't have to ask for help if we have a headache!" Mrs. Fan moved in with difficulty! A stone slab was placed on top of the pickle jar, and water was added to the mouth of the jar.

Jing Damei looked proud: "It's Dr. Xiao He who taught him well. He gave him some basic knowledge, and he can make some simple medicines."

"Sister-in-law Quan, has Quanzi been gone for several days? Isn't it time to come back?" Mrs. Ge pickled the cabbage and went to help cut the radish strips. When she saw Wanbao Quan's sister-in-law coming out to dry out the quilt, she couldn't bear it. Keep asking.

On this trip, Wanbaoquan took the leather they made themselves to Chang'an City to do business with a big fur merchant. After that, they had to go to another county to buy back the cotton for the family and the farm tools needed for spring plowing. ironware.

The old blacksmith's furnace has been built. These days, iron ore and other things are under government control. The only option is to buy some scrap iron and melt it back to make weapons.

Sister-in-law Wan Baoquan hit the quilt with a stick: "I'm supposed to be back today, but it's already noon and there's no movement yet!"

As she was talking, her son Wan Xiaobao's happy voice came from outside: "Second uncle is back! My second uncle is back."

Every time Wanbaoquan came back, he would bring some candy and other snacks to the children at home, and these children would look back and forth at Xiaotupo every time.

As soon as the women in the yard heard that Wanbaoquan was back, they hurriedly dropped what they were doing and hurried out to help unload the truck.

Jing Damei looked at several carts of cotton: "Oh my God! If you buy so much cotton, you'll get a lot of jealousy from people on the road, right?"

Wan Baoquan said while unloading the truck: "It's not that good. There are still refugees who want to rob it. It's thanks to Brother Shen's powerful people, otherwise it's uncertain whether he can come back!"

Sister-in-law Wan Baoquan cursed in a low voice: "You damn god, if you have the ability, go rob the bandits. Why are you robbing poor people like us?"

The last two carts were so heavy that the mules were so tired that they were foaming at the white. The old blacksmith was stunned as soon as he lifted the oilcloth.

"Quanzi, where did you get so much pig iron? Aren't these things under the control of the government?"
