After being exiled, Lucky Zaizai took his whole family to farm.

Chapter 56 Lack of cotton-padded clothes
  After finishing the painting, she first put on her own warm clothes, then a cotton coat, and then went to the other three rooms to provide warmth.

My parents are older, so of course I go to their room first.

When Fang Yuerong saw that it was such a cold day and her daughter came running over in the middle of the night, she immediately became worried, "What's wrong? Is it too cold? Why don't you sleep with your mother tonight?"

As for the husband?

He is an adult now, so of course he sleeps by himself.

"No, it's warm in my room. I was afraid you would be cold, so I came here to give you something."

Seeing that her daughter's hands were empty, Fang Yuerong guessed that this thing was still in the painting.

"Come inside quickly, it's cold outside."

Qin Huaiyi had already put on his coat and sat at the small table. He coughed a few times and said, "Jiajia, why are you here wearing so little?"

"Don't worry, Mom and Dad. I won't catch anyone who gets cold. I'll put your things away first. I have to go to my brother and sister's place later."

Afraid of wasting Qin Jia's time and letting her get cold outside, the two of them didn't talk to her again.

Qin Jia quickly cashed in the things.

When the stove came out, there were also a few briquettes. She lit them while teaching Fang Yuerong how to use them.

The wooden house had gaps and windows, so she wasn't afraid that they would be suffocated.

Along with the small stove, there is also a kettle for boiling water, which is the old iron one with a long spout.

"Mom, you can boil some hot water to warm it up. If you get up at night, you can drink some.

Also, I just heard my father cough. If he coughs badly, remember to come to me to get medicine.

Forget it, I'll bring it over when I go back and finish the painting later. You guys go to bed early. If it's not warm enough, just tell me and I'll find a way. "Qin Jia's tone was full of worry.

Fortunately, she has access to modern medicines, otherwise a fever or something like that might take away the lives of her family members.

"No, dad just woke up and his throat is dry. No need to bring medicine. You go back to the house and go to sleep." Qin Huaiyi was also worried about his daughter.

In this kind of weather, it's so cold outside if you don't stay in bed.

However, Qin Jia had her own ideas. After telling the two of them to put on warm pajamas before sleeping, she left.

Then he went to Qin Lin's room.

Qin Lin, who had just gotten up and was looking for quilts to make her bed, immediately opened the door for her.

Qin Jia gave her a copy of everything and taught her how to use it before going to Qin Lie and Qin Hao's room.

Qin Lie burst into tears of gratitude for his sister's warmth, "Sister, it's a good thing you're here, brother is so cold!"

"Where's Haohao? Is it frozen? Have you laid out a quilt?"

"It's been made, how dare I get him cold? It's just that he slept too hard, and he seemed to be coughing a little just after putting it on."

Qin Jia entered the room and took a look. Sure enough, Qin Hao was tightly wrapped in quilt, a little depressed, and occasionally coughed twice.

She frowned, put the things away, and said to Qin Lie, "Brother, help him change his clothes first. I'll go back to the house and draw some medicine."

"Well, you should wear more clothes and don't get too cold."

Listening to his brother coughing, Qin Lie was worried and felt a little guilty.

It's all his fault, he was too tired from practicing martial arts today, and it wasn't hot tonight, so he slept soundly.

When he woke up from the cold, Haohao had almost curled up into a ball next to him.

At night, I was covered with a thin quilt.

***
  Qin Jia did not go back to the house immediately to draw medicines. Instead, he drew two sets of cotton-padded clothes and sent them to Si Qi and Zhishu.

Before, they each had a thin quilt and a cotton quilt in their room, but they didn't have cotton-padded clothes, so these will be sent to them.

Otherwise, they might not have any cotton-padded clothes to wear tomorrow.

When asked where it came from, she could explain that her mother had taken apart the quilt and made it.

After all, they had asked for a lot of quilts when exchanging supplies with the territory.

A few beds were also allocated to the Zhao and Wen families, but they gave them money. Now that the three families live independently, they naturally have to settle the accounts. And now that they have money in their hands, they no longer need to take advantage of the Qin family.

They also went to the territory to buy cotton-padded clothes, and with the preparations they made before coming to Higurashi, it was just enough to change them.

Therefore, Qin Jia was not worried about the other two families. After delivering cotton-padded clothes to Zhishu and the others, Qin Jia went back to the house to draw medicines.

Cough syrup for coughs, antipyretics for children and antipyretics for adults if you are afraid of having a fever at night.

After giving two portions of syrup to Qin Huaiyi and Qin Hao respectively, she could finally sleep.

Alas, in the past, surviving on the island was basically a subordinate who followed orders.

Now that life is better, she is becoming more and more like an old mother.

I'm afraid someone will be sick, hungry, or cold.

However, Qin Jia was still happy in her heart. It was better to have relatives who cared about her than to be alone in this world.

At dawn the next day, many people woke up feeling groggy.

When the people who were reluctant to give up the money to rent cotton-padded clothes last night took the money to the big wooden house today, they were told that the cotton-padded clothes were gone.

Those families were devastated.

"Young gentlemen, why are there no cotton-padded clothes? How can we survive in such a cold weather without cotton-padded clothes?"

"That's right, several children started to have runny noses and coughs this morning."

"Gentlemen, we don't rent anymore, we buy. Please sell us two pieces!"

"Yes, yes, if you don't have cotton-padded clothes, a cotton-padded quilt will do."

Although they looked pitiful shivering in the cold wind, Gongsun Wuming and the other three were helpless.

Lin Yuan's expression was even a little impatient, "If they say it's gone, then it must be gone.

Didn’t I say that when I asked someone to call you last night? First come, first served, and those who don’t have one behind can find their own way to keep out the cold. "

Anyway, it only takes a few days. After a few days, the team that went out to purchase goods from their territory will come back.

As for these days, they really have no choice.

He was really annoyed by these people. He worked hard to call them last night, but none of them wanted to pay. He thought that the territory would be given away for free, so he waited until today.

If you ask him, he deserves to die in the cold.

One of the elderly ladies felt a little uncomfortable, "Sir, can't you really move one or two of our quilts? We took them apart to make cotton clothes..."

"You can think of it, but others can't think of it?

Last night, our boss took pity on you because you didn't have enough money and wanted to rent it to you.

But a few of them were smarter and bought them directly with money. They mixed some cotton with old cotton clothes, so they had both quilts and cotton clothes. "

You must know that there are still many people in the territory who have some money.

Most of the money rewarded by the grassland convicts during their previous invasions was still kept in the homes of men with sons.

Especially those where someone died and received a lot of pension.

Only those who have no adult male in their family, or who have no one in their family to stand up to defend their territory, are truly poor.

For these people, let’s be honest. As a manager, if you have to make a choice between these.

Gongsun Wuming naturally chose those who had strong labor at home and were willing to stand up to defend the territory.

So for those who are really in trouble, they have given up.

Because of the territory, I really can’t afford any extra quilts and coats.

This is a scarce commodity, something that cannot be delivered outside.

Otherwise, why would the prisoners in Higurashi Island not survive very long?
