Splendid peasant girl busy farming

After eating the hot meal and hot tea, the whole family felt warm all over.

Although she was still trapped here, still a hundred miles away from Changping Village, Sun was not as panicked as before because of the help of Yu Zhong's family.

Moreover, Yang Huazhong and Yu Zhong's wandering around last morning was not in vain.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. Just spend the night at my house today. I'm afraid the snow won't stop today." Mrs. Yu Zhong followed Mr. Sun to look at the falling snow in the yard outside the house.

"When the snow stops, ask Yu Zhong to go to the village and call the Master. You guys will help shovel the snow on the road. At least we can move forward a little. I heard that there is a post station on the official road ahead."

The inn has guest rooms specially designed to receive these passing officials and big merchants. It is said that the conditions are no worse than the inns in the town.

It’s just that ordinary people don’t have the conditions to enter...

Mrs. Sun nodded and sighed again, "Master wants to keep someone here today. It seems that we can only continue to bother you at your house..."

"What did my sister-in-law say? As long as you don't dislike the humble abode and its simplicity."

"Brothers and sisters, you are so polite. At this moment, you can lend us a tile to shelter from the wind and rain, and a bundle of firewood to sleep on. It would be a great kindness!"

After washing the pots and dishes, Mrs. Sun strongly declined Mrs. Yu Zhong's offer to give up the big bed where the couple and their children slept. So Mrs. Yu Zhong went to the wing on the other side and started setting up a shop for the guests.

As for Yang Huazhong and Yu Zhong, they went out again.

"It's snowing and I can't stand still, these men..."

Mrs. Yu Zhong and Mrs. Sun took down the door of the house together and pieced together a fairly large shop, with several long stools supporting it underneath.

After laying a few more bundles of straw on the wooden board, Mrs. Yu Zhong opened the box and took out two brand-new quilts to cover them.

Mrs. Sun saw the pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water embroidered on the red quilt, "Is this from when you got married? Is it the dowry prepared for Dani?"

Mrs. Yu Zhong blushed and said, "When I got married, there was only one quilt, and it was on the bed in the room next to ours."

"This is the dowry we prepared for Dani... Dani is now thirteen this year, and she is about to marry her husband's family..."

Mrs. Sun would never have imagined that the skinny little girl Dani, who looked even shorter than Feng'er, was already thirteen. The family must have been too busy on weekdays, and the child couldn't grow up because he didn't eat well. It's like the crops are short of nutrients...

"Brother and sister, this is my daughter's dowry. It's brand new. How can you use it for us? It can't be used, it can't be used..."

Mrs. Sun said that she was about to step forward and grab it, "You can just wear it with two sheets of old cotton wool. Your daughter's dowry cannot be touched..."

Mrs. Yu Zhong held down Mrs. Sun's hand and said, "It's okay. The bedding is just for sleeping. You are nobles. It's okay to let my eldest daughter enjoy your nobleness."

At Mrs. Yu Zhong's insistence, a fight began for a bunk where three adults could lie side by side.

Mrs. Yu Zhong found another sleeping bed and built a simpler shop.

"Sister-in-law, my whole family's fortune is on the line, and I can only wrong you tonight."

Mrs. Sun, however, looked touched, "Your arrangement is so appropriate. It can't be better than this. Thank you very much!"

Jun'er felt sleepy after eating. He stopped playing with his brothers and sisters and several other strange brothers and sisters. He just dozed off in Xiaohua's arms.

Xiaohua held Jun'er and stayed in the fire barrel until the shop was set up. Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Yu Zhong came over together and asked Xiaohua to hold Jun'er and sleep on the shop.

Afraid that Jun'er wouldn't be warm enough to sleep alone, Xiaohua simply took off her coat and lay down to take a nap with Jun'er.

Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Yu Zhong made hot tea in the main room and chatted with each other. Feng'er, Dani, Fuwa, Erni and other children were building snowmen in the yard. The children had a great time playing without any worries. Almost... It was dark when Yang Huazhong and Yu Zhong came back from outside.

After entering the house, he drank a bowl of tea to warm his hands, and then Yu Zhong urged his mother-in-law to go to the kitchen to cook.

"There's not much firewood left. Go to the woodshed and pull two bundles."

The woodshed was now occupied by those guards, and it was inconvenient for her as a woman to go there.

Yu Zhong put down his tea bowl and followed Yang Huazhong up and walked out. When he reached the door, his mother-in-law asked him in a low voice: "Where did you go wandering around this whole day? The noble man will freeze to death later."

Yu Zhong said excitedly: "What do you know? My brother Yang San and I are not just fooling around."

"We went to the nearby official road in the morning to inquire about the road conditions. In the afternoon, I took him to visit every household in the village. We have already called a dozen strong men. As long as the snow stops tomorrow, everyone will go to the official road. Shovel the snow, at least make a way for Brother Yang’s house, at least it has to be delivered to the inn in front!"

"It's a good idea, but it's freezing out here. Who doesn't want to lie under the quilt at home?" The woman asked again, "If you don't give me any benefits, how can someone help you for nothing?"

Yu Zhong pulled his mother-in-law towards the kitchen and said in a low voice: "Brother Yang is an honest man. He said he wanted to give money, but I pushed him back!"

"As an upright person, is it possible that I don't even have the right to ask a few people to do something?"

"Then my cheating is in vain! You underestimate me too much!"

"You, if you don't give me money, even if you are forced to be upright, you will still be unable to work hard. I'm afraid you won't be able to shovel two miles of land in one day."

"Impossible. I will take the lead personally. We will shovel snow for our compatriots from my hometown who are officials in the capital. This is our honor!"

"Besides, we live next to this official road. Thanks to the convenience of this official road, it is very convenient for people in the village to go out to catch a market."

"Nowadays, a section of the official road near the village is blocked by heavy snow. Let's go do something good and shovel it to accumulate virtue for our children and grandchildren!"

"Of course, whoever obeys my orders to shovel snow and is willing to work hard will have the first right to fish in our village's fish pond to celebrate the Chinese New Year!"

"I am Li Zheng, I have the final say!"

……

At the same time, in the hall, Mrs. Sun was also curious about what Yang Huazhong was busy with this day.

The snow was falling so hard that every time I went out and came back, I was all covered in white.

Although the horse pulling the cart was led to Yu Zhong's woodshed to keep warm, a carriage full of luggage was still stuck on the official road. Da'an arranged for two groups of guards to take turns guarding the carriage.

As for Mr. Feng'er, who was trapped here, not only was he not in a hurry, he actually had the heart to visit everywhere.

Is it really because I have been in the capital for this year and am unfamiliar with the place, and I am frustrated?

At the moment, Sun was not loyal to Yang Hua, nor was he smiling.

Yang Huazhong said: "I didn't hang around, I went to work on the road."

"Oh? How's it going? When can we leave?"

"When the snow stops, Brother Yu Zhong will call a group of villagers to help shovel the snow,"
