How to survive in poverty: I use a simulator to farm

Chapter 83 The first blizzard this year

Under the help of Chen Yuan, Chen Dazhu's family slowly got on the right track of life.

And with the help of Chen Yuan, a real carpenter, Chen Feiyan built more and more looms.

Before the first snowstorm of the year, Chen Feiyan's family had already handed over their looms to the eight households in the village who had ordered looms.

Because of Chen Yixuan's commitment, he also took his sons and personally went to other people's homes to teach them the crafts of spinning and weaving.

Those people had the mentality of being bastards who did not take advantage of advantages, so they took the whole family, old ladies and a large group of daughters-in-law to find Chen Yixuan to learn from them seriously.

Sometimes, they would even stay with a few of them, including father and son, to have meals at their home.

time flies.

Unknowingly, the cold wind from the northwest started blowing.

Soon, the entire world was covered by a very heavy snowstorm.

How cold is the winter in the north? Chen Feiyan, who was an out-and-out southerner in her previous life, experienced it firsthand for the first time.

Winter in the north without heating is too cold.

The whole family was lying on the kang, not daring to move.

Everyone in the family had already put on cotton-padded clothes, but the temperature outside at about minus [-] degrees still made them shiver from the cold.

"Daddy, why is it so cold outside..."

After Chen Yixuan lay on the warm kang and shivered, he shook his head.

"I don't know why this year, it's colder than in previous years. Our family prepared some firewood, but I feel it's still not enough."

Because they were prepared in advance, the family now calls Chen Yixing, Wang Yingying and their son to sleep in the same room.

I don’t know how cold it will be this year or when spring will start.If the firewood at home runs out early, the family will definitely freeze to death.

This year, they have clothes to wear, enough food to eat, and a warm house to live in. Chen Yixing's family of three and Chen Yixuan's family all feel particularly happy and satisfied.

There was nothing to do during the day, so Chen Feiyan, who was sitting on the kang with the quilt still covering her body, continued to teach a few children embroidery.

The more skills you learn, the more skills you have to survive.

Chen Feiyan was quite pleased to see the eyes of the six children in her family becoming more and more alert.

Children have such a small flaw, as long as they study harder and learn more skills, their lives will not necessarily be worse than those of normal people in the future.

At this moment, Wang Yingying actually couldn't take any time off.

Her heart was heavy and she had a lot of things on her mind.

She didn't know why, but as the weather got colder, she felt more and more pressure to survive.

She really doesn't want to place her hopes on others now.

She now really wants to have her own house and her own fields.She is also in charge of her own affairs.

She doesn't have to live her life looking at other people's eyes like she does now.

Wang Yingying felt dissatisfied and became more devoted to her needlework.

Soon, she embroidered two parallel lotuses.

The needlework is fine and the image of the tied lotus is lifelike, which is particularly beautiful.

Seeing her acupuncture technique, Chen Feiyan suddenly had an idea.

"Sister-in-law, have you ever heard of double-sided embroidery in Jiangnan?"

"Double-sided embroidery? You mean the embroidery method where the front and back are different?" Wang Yingying asked with a frown.

When Chen Feiyan heard this, her eyes lit up and she nodded heavily.

"Yes, yes, that's it! I wonder, sister-in-law, if you can do double-sided embroidery?" Wang Yingying laughed out loud when she heard this, and she started laughing as if she heard something particularly funny. Leaning backward.

"Hahaha, double-sided embroidery is a unique skill! I am from a small family, how can I have such great skills?"

"Besides, the acupuncture technique I taught you is not something that ordinary people can easily learn. If it weren't for the fact that you are my man's brother-in-law, I wouldn't teach it."

Chen Feiyan could hear a little bit of unwillingness and resentment in her tone of voice, and she immediately realized that she might have done something bad and offended her.

So, she immediately gave her a grateful smile.

"Sister-in-law, I understand your acupuncture thing!"

After saying this, she suddenly remembered the experience value of a piece of embroidery she had simulated through the life simulator.

Soon, Chen Feiyan relied on her own feelings and slowly embroidered a little magpie in front of Wang Yingying using the stitches she had discovered.

"..." Wang Yingying saw that she ignored her after just saying that sentence. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.

This winter, we have to rely on their family for food.As the saying goes, people under the eaves have to bow their heads.The three members of her family have bowed their heads for such a long time, and it doesn't matter if she endures it for a few more months.

Bear with a knife on your head.

It's no wonder that when she was young, her father told her that the more tolerant a person is, the stronger their mind will be.

In the cold weather in the north, there are no entertainment activities at all.

Playing cards, mahjong, gambling... Chen Feiyan's family is very poor now, and they don't have the conditions at all.

There are only two or three ways they spend their time now.

Sleep, eat, go to the bathroom.

In the middle of winter, Chen Feiyan and her family lay on the kang and slept in darkness.

When they woke up, they began to eat.

When the first blizzard stopped, the wind outside was not so strong.Chen Feiyan quickly got busy.

He asked his man to help and quickly slaughtered the two pigs at home.

Kill the pig to survive the winter.

Although Chen Yixuan has never killed a pig before, there must be a first time in life.

In order to kill the two pigs in the family, all the men in the family took action.

He boiled water and borrowed a machete from the village chief's house.

Soon, they pressed two castrated boars, which already weighed more than 180 kilograms, onto a bench.

Cut the throat and bleed, and the blood will flow into the washed wooden barrel.

The scene was too bloody.Chen Feiyan, who thought she was brave, did not dare to look further.

After two buckets of pig blood coagulated, there were more than 20 kilograms...

Chen Feiyan divided out two kilograms of pig blood and asked her eldest and second son to deliver it to the village chief's house. After returning the machete, she stewed all the pig blood.

There are eight people in her family, plus her husband and brother's family of three. A total of eleven people can finish all the stewed pig blood in one day.

It was late at night, and the pig blood stewed at Chen Feiyan's house was delicious.The whole village is filled with fragrance.

Many villagers who were frugal in food and clothing were drooling greedily when they smelled the alluring fragrance of pig blood.

Many people are secretly saying, "Why is Shuanzi's family living a better life again? In the past, when his grandfather was around, their family's life was the best. Now, he has climbed up to the aunt who jumped out of nowhere in the county. Now, he is living a prosperous life again?"

There was jealousy and envy in those words.There is also an unspeakable hatred.
