There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 965
[Chapter 965 Chapter 965, One Hundred Thousand Whys]
Daohua take out half of the sweet potatoes that Li Xingnian brought and put them in Zhuangzi for breeding, and the other half was planted in the space, ready to start planting next year.
“Why is it so hot this year?”
After mid-June, the temperature in Liangdu became hotter day by day. The ground was scorching hot. Water was sprinkled on the ground, but it evaporated in a short time. Everyone was so hot that they didn’t want to move.
Daohua was worried about her son’s heat stroke, so she could only forcibly restrain him in the house and not let him go out. Fortunately, there were many toys in the toy room, and the little guy was noisy at first, but then it stopped.
It was not until mid-August that the temperature began to drop.
But this time the temperature difference dropped a bit. It was originally a breezy autumn, but it made people feel chilly.
Some experienced old people showed their worries: “This year’s weather is a bit abnormal, hurry up and harvest the crops in the field.”
Master Wang also had this worry, and immediately reported it to Xiao Yeyang.
After hearing this, Xiao Yeyang asked some farming veterans to inquire, but all the results were the same, so he ordered the guards to harvest the crops in the field in advance.
Sure enough, it was September, and there were frosts in several guards in Xiliang, and some crops that were too late to harvest were frostbitten on a large scale.
“This winter may be very cold, so we need to prepare more winter supplies.”
Xiao Yeyang talked to Daohua after returning home.
Daohua nodded: “I also feel it. Xiliang also started to get cold in September last year, but it’s not as cold as this year. Some servants in the mansion who are not in good health have put on cotton-padded clothes.
” Yeyang: “I have already sent people to Ganzhou Wei, and I will bring more coal over to store it. If there is a disaster, we can deal with it in time.”
Daohua said ‘hmm’: “I know how to prepare , you just worry about the outside world.”
Xiao Yeyang said again: “Fortunately, you taught everyone how to knit sweaters this year. The Military Supplies Department has prepared tens of thousands of sweaters and wool trousers. Twelve military towns are divided into one point. The patrolling soldiers should be able to distribute one set to each of them. ”
As for ordinary people, there are many herdsmen in Xiliang, and wool is not hard to come by. If you save a little, every family should be able to get something to wear.”
In October, it snowed like goose feathers in many places in Xiliang.
In less than half a month, many guards reported that snow disasters had occurred in the jurisdiction of the capital.
After that, Xiao Yeyang was busier than before, leaving early and returning late, and Daozi kept yelling that he hadn’t seen his father for a long time.
Thanks to the reconstruction of the official roads in all the guards this year, the roads have been improved a lot. Under Xiao Yeyang’s strong intervention, the winter supplies were transported to the disaster area in time, and there were no large numbers of frostbite deaths and frostbite.
Wangjia Village.
The head of the Wang clan, with a cane, went from house to house to inspect the situation of the clansmen, fearing that some clansmen would freeze to death or starve to death.
Fortunately, after turning around, this situation did not happen. The lonely old people in the clan, with the clothes and food donated by the clan, can still survive this winter.
Although the lives of the clansmen are not rich now, they can still live on.
The patriarch tightened his cotton coat, and he was wearing a sweater and wool trousers under the coat. It wasn’t very cold to walk in the snow. If in previous years, he only had a cotton coat to keep out the cold, he would not dare to go out at this time.
In other words, the woolen sweater, woolen pants, gloves, and socks are really warm. Next year, he will see if the family will buy more sheep to raise.
Without this sweater and wool trousers, some elderly people in the clan might not be able to survive the cold this winter.
In the past, wool was not very valuable, but now everyone knows how to knit sweaters and trousers, and the wool in the hands of herdsmen is unwilling to sell.
Some businessmen are buying wool in large quantities. Sweaters and trousers are so warm. These businessmen see business opportunities and plan to weave them into sweaters and trousers for sale in other provinces.
If the clan also raises sheep, in addition to being used by the clan, maybe they can earn some money to supplement the family.
It started to snow again in the sky, the patriarch shrank his neck and hurried home.
After being busy until the end of the year, Xiao Yeyang finally got free.
Daozi hadn’t seen his father for two or three months, when he suddenly saw Xiao Yeyang while having breakfast, he was stunned.
“You brat, have you forgotten your father?”
Seeing his son looking at him in confusion, Xiao Yeyang smiled and rubbed his head.
Daozi thought of what his mother had said to him, and immediately asked loudly: “Daddy, are you done?”
Xiao Yeyang’s eyes lit up: “I haven’t been with you for a few months, and I will ask questions? My son is amazing.”
Seeing Daohua Xiao Yeyang looked proud, and was a little speechless: “You are not busy now, spend more time with the little guy, just to feel the 100,000 whys of my son.”
Xiao Yeyang was puzzled: “What ten thousand whys?” Why?”
Daohua smiled: “You will know soon.” As he spoke, he talked about the New Year’s ceremony, “This year, Xiliang is snowing heavily and the roads are difficult to walk. The New Year’s ceremony in the capital may It will be delivered later.”
Xiao Yeyang said with a smile: “For these irresistible external factors, I will make it clear to my father, father-in-law and mother-in-law, and they will understand.”
Daohua: “Of course I know this. Is there any annual gift for Uncle Huang? If it is delivered after the new year, I am worried that Uncle Huang will not like it.”
Xiao Yeyang: “No way, Uncle Huang is not so stingy.”
Daohua: “You said that, Then I’m relieved.”
The New Year’s gift to the emperor was nothing, just some good leathers that Xiao Yeyang led the army to hunt, and various sweaters, waistcoats and other items made of various wool threads that were newly released this year. Talk about expressing your feelings.
Prince Ping’s and Yan’s are similar.
After dinner, Daohua went to help the house, and directly threw her son to Xiao Yeyang.
The weather was cold and he couldn’t go out. Rice was confined in the house and became obsessed with painting.
“Daddy, you can draw with me.”
“Okay!”
Daozi took Xiao Yeyang to the toy room, found the drawing paper bound by his mother, and watercolor pens, and then took Xiao Yeyang to sit down. on his little table.
Xiao Yeyang curiously took his son’s watercolor pen, and after looking at it, he said with a smile: “Your mother has taken great pains for you.” The
son is young, so let him paint with paint, and he probably won’t be able to do it once or twice when he comes down from the house. read.
You know, paint can be washed a lot.
Rice picked up the red watercolor pen and began to draw on the paper.
Xiao Yeyang originally thought that it would be enough to just sit aside and guide his son to draw, but after a while, his son looked at him with wide-eyed eyes.
“Daddy, why are dogs only black?”
Xiao Yeyang: “…Because dogs are black.”
Daozi pouted: “But I like red dogs.” Saying that, he held up the drawing paper , and handed the red puppy I drew to Xiao Yeyang.
Xiao Yeyang: “.”
After a while, Daozi asked again: “Daddy, grandma said that I picked it up, is it true?”
Xiao Yeyang immediately said: “Of course not, you were born by your father and mother. ”
Daozi’s eyes widened suddenly: “How did it happen?”
Xiao Yeyang: “.” This question is a bit difficult.
Seeing that Xiao Yeyang couldn’t answer, Daozi seemed a little disgusted: “Daddy, why does the old hen lay eggs?”
“Daddy, why does it snow in the sky?”
“Daddy, why does it get cold when it snows?” “Daddy, why does the
old hen lay eggs?” Why do the flowers in the ancestor’s yard die when they are pulled out?”
At noon, Xiao Yeyang hugged his son and went to the dining room in a dazed state. They all started to eat, and he was still thinking about why his son was doing it.
What he didn’t expect was that during the Chinese New Year this year, his son’s thirst for knowledge was overwhelming, and he would ask questions everywhere he went, which made his head dizzy.
