Chapter 106： difficult

Fei Bai brought two thick quilts and smiled at Mu Yangling: "As soon as our master came back, he asked Xiao to bring it to the girl, saying that even if he is cold, he can't be cold to the girl and Master Bowen. , look, where is the little one for you in this life?"

"Can your master say such a thing?" Mu Yangling glanced at him sideways, "Is he smeared with honey or is he nervous?"

Feibai laughed and did not dare to speak.

Mu Yangling snorted arrogantly, took the quilt in his arms, touched it, it was really thick, only then was he satisfied, "Did you make up the words yourself, or did Fan Zijin teach you to say it?"

"Oh my great aunt, how dare you make up nonsense to deceive you?"

Mu Yangling nodded, "That's what Fan Zijin taught you, hmph, go back and tell them, for the sake of their sincerity, I won't bother with them about kicking my kang, and I'll count them as them. Apologize."

"Yes, yes, the small ones must be brought."

"Then let's go."

Feibai wiped his cold sweat and went out, and as soon as he went out, he spread his feet and ran away on horseback.

This aunt dared to beat and roll on the ground with Fourth Young Master. That slap is enough for him to endure, so it's better not to offend her.

Mu Yangling happily went to find her aunt with the quilt in her arms.

This thatched hut is a real thatched hut. It is built with yellow mud. The house is low and covered with thatch. It is dark in the house.

In the cold night, I don't know if the house is leaking or not. They didn't bring many quilts from the house. I thought about burning the kang after tonight. Tomorrow, Mu Yangling will bring two cousins ​​into the mountains to collect firewood, even if the quilt Not enough, enough firewood, the kang can be heated warmly to survive this winter.

But she can pull off the stones along the edge of the kang with a slap, and Qi Haoran can knock down the kang with one foot. They don't dare to set fire to such a kang at night. What if they accidentally cook someone?

There are five thatched cottages in total, three side by side, one for Mu Shi and his wife, one for Mu Yangling and Xiao Bowen, one for Ma Liu’s grandson and grandson, and one for the left and right, one for the kitchen. , a room for stacking debris.

Such conditions are very advantageous for military households. Now many private houses have been burnt down. Qi Haoran arranged for several families to live in one room. Haoran arranged for people to build houses for everyone before they could live in them.

So Qi Haoran really took good care of the Mu family.

But Shu Wanniang is very worried. In two years, her son will grow old, and she can't sleep with her daughter. There are also Xiuhong and Xiulan. They are a girl's family and they have to have their own room. It's hard to say whether she will be able to eat in the future, so Shu Wanniang sat in the room full of sadness.

Mu Yangling didn't think about it so much. He had hands and feet, great strength, and no lack of wisdom. There was no reason to live on.

Mu Yangling carried a quilt to his aunt and the others, put it together with the previous one, and said, "Auntie, this is what Qi Haoran and the others brought here, you put the old one under it and build the new one, tonight. Stop burning the kang, Qi Haoran can knock down the kang in my room with one foot, who knows if yours will be strong?"

Auntie heard the movement over there long ago, but Qi Haoran and the others were there. She didn't dare to go there. Now that she heard that the kang had collapsed, she hurriedly asked, "Your kang has collapsed, so where do you sleep at night?"

"Let's go to sleep with my mother, don't worry auntie, the kang in my father's house is big."

"What if all of you lie down and collapse?"

"..." Mu Yangling didn't think about this question, and said in amazement, "What should I do then?"

"Come and sleep with us, we are light."

Xiuhong happily stepped forward and took Mu Yangling's hand, "Yes, cousin, sleep with us."

After hesitating for a while, Mu Yangling agreed, took another quilt to Shu Wanniang's place, looked at the twins who were still sleeping, and sighed, "I didn't expect that there are four children in the family, except that I was born with happiness. The rest suffer."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Mother and your father are not worried, what are you worried about?" Shu Wanniang picked up the grass clippings from her hair and said, "And your father is here, as long as you and your brother are happy, it is good."

In Shu Wanniang's heart, her husband is omnipotent.

Mu Yangling is not so optimistic, "Mom, Dad can't farm, and Dad has to go to the camp for training, he is a soldier."

Shu Wanniang's face froze, "Isn't this, you only go to the battlefield during the war?"

"Mother, you think so beautifully. If you don't train normally, will the soldiers still be soldiers in wartime? Training is for sure, and they are still recruits, so they have to practice." Besides, they are still keen on training Qi Haoran Under the hand, it must be practiced to death.

Mushi didn't come back from the camp until it was dark. My aunt had already prepared the food. Seeing him coming back, she hurriedly called Shang Xiuhong to bring the food together.

"How is it?" Shu Wanniang greeted her and asked, "Why did you come back so late?"

"Everyone has just arrived, and everything has to start all over again. It's too late for me to figure out their situation." Mu Shi is a small flag, and the small flag has a hundred people. It is natural to find out the situation of each family before tomorrow. Have to ask family by family.

The whole family sat down to eat together. After the meal, Shu Wanniang asked, "What do we grow on our land?"

Mu Shi said indifferently: "We will plant what others are planting. The seeds will have to wait for two months to arrive. Let's talk about it later. Let's think about how to spend this winter. But what to do after the spring? My meals are handled by the camp, and yours haven't arrived yet."

Mu Yangling said: "Then I'll go to the mountain tomorrow after gathering firewood."

"No," Mu Shi and Shu Wanniang shouted at the same time, Mu Shi looked sharply at his daughter, "What time is it? Going to the mountain to seek death? Dad thinks about a way, if you dare to go into the mountain, I will beat you." It was Mu Shi, Unless forced to, never go into the mountains in heavy snow, let alone beasts who can't find food in the mountains, can't distinguish the direction and the cold may make people stay in the mountains forever and can't get out.

Mu Yangling shrank his neck in response.

Ma Liu saw that they had talked for a long time and still didn't mention the key, so he couldn't help but interjected: "Aren't you going to discuss the sowing in the spring?"

What else is there to discuss? Didn't it say that when people planted what they planted?

The whole family stared blankly at Ma Liu.

Ma Liu sighed, she understood what Mu Shi said at the beginning, if she didn't come, they would really not be able to plant the land.

Ma Liu said: "There are a total of 180 acres of land in the family. Do you think you can plant all of them? Although the court sent oxen, it is uncertain whether it will be our turn. Don't you get tired of cultivating with cattle? You have to choose the fertile ones to farm."

"Before tilling, you have to turn the soil and weed. Whether you are planting wheat or rice, you have to take care of the land before that, and you have to worry about the fertilizer after the spring. All these have to be done before the spring."
