Reborn Nongmen's little lucky wife

Chapter 2274 Firewood is expensive

Gu Jinli immediately shouted into the house: "Erqing, Erqing, don't look for leather clothes yet, go and tell Lu Da that the brick kiln will stop working immediately, and all the firewood will be kept for heating and keeping out the cold. Don't waste a single piece of firewood to burn bricks. If the bricks are not delivered on time, we will lose money!"

Extremely cold weather can freeze people to death at any time. If people want to survive in this kind of weather, they must have enough firewood, so now firewood is the most precious material, much more valuable than green bricks.

"Yes." Er Qing agreed, quickly put on his cloak, and went to the brick kiln.

Before arriving at the brick kiln, he met Lu Da, he saw Er Qing, guessed what, his face showed joy, and asked: "But my lord and madam told me to stop firing the kiln?"

Er Qing nodded: "That's right, madam said, the brick kiln will stop working immediately, don't waste a single firewood."

After hearing this, Lu Da breathed a sigh of relief... He was about to ask his lord and his wife for instructions when this order came.

but……

"After the fire ceased in the brick kiln, the firewood inside hadn't been burned yet. Miss Erqing, please go back and ask your wife for instructions, but do you want every household to come over and collect charcoal fires to keep out the cold?"

On snowy days, firewood is the most expensive, so don't waste it.

Before Erqing could speak, he heard the sound of a gong. It was Xiaoji driving the car. Carambola was beating the gong and shouting: "Madam has an order. Every family will take the iron pot and soybeans to the brick kiln and roast the soybeans as a reserve food!"

As soon as Er Qing left, Gu Jinli asked Xiao Ji and Yang Tao to inform the households to prepare food to keep out the cold.

After hearing this, Lu Da finally felt relieved, this time he was not afraid of wasting firewood.

Dangdang Dangdang!
Yang Tao was still beating the gong and shouting: "Madam has an order. Within two quarters of an hour, each household must take the iron pot and soybeans to the brick kiln to roast the soybeans as a reserve food. If the time expires, a fine of one tael of silver will be imposed. A fine of one tael of silver!"

"What? You will be fined a tael of silver for being late, is your niece and daughter-in-law crazy?!" Widow Xiao and the others were about to have breakfast when they heard this and almost jumped up in anger.

Xiaoji was very angry, stopped the carriage, and said to Xiao's house: "Uncle Madam, our wife is of high class. If you insult Madam, you can be fined or beheaded!"

Take it easy, don't always rely on your status as an elder to scold our little boss.

Widow Xiao hurriedly covered her mouth, and said with a chuckle: "Girl Xiaoji, why are you angry? I didn't mean it, but I just said it casually... I'm going to roast soybeans in two quarters of an hour, so I won't talk nonsense to you." Alright, now let’s roast the soybeans.”

After speaking, he hurried back to the house.

Yang Tao said again: "Madam also said, each household should not waste firewood, wear more clothes inside the house to keep out the cold, and don't take off your clothes to add firewood to the kang!"

"I know, I know, there are so many things." Widow Xiao responded, and after entering the house, she said to the family: "Don't eat, hurry up and get the iron pot and soybeans, and go to the brick kiln. If you are late, you will be fined. One tael of silver!"

"Mother, what do you do with roasting so many soybeans?" Sister Xiao asked, while putting Xiao Qingyun on him with a big jacket, while throwing the clothes to Brother Gui: "Brother Gui, you wear it yourself, and Mother has to take care of it." Your little uncle."

"Oh." Little Gui replied in a childish voice, holding a thick winter coat and putting it on with difficulty.

Widow Xiao replied to Sister Xiao: "Where does my mother know, anyway, I want to roast soybeans, and if I don't roast them, I will be fined... It's not me, your cousin is the smartest, and you will pick money if you see a crack in it!"

Xiao Xiaomei hurried to prepare things, and asked Widow Xiao: "Big brother and second brother are going to report in Duchonggou today. In this weather, will they go?"

Widow Xiao said: "Of course, your second brother is going to be an official, don't say it's snowing, you have to go to the old lady for the knife!"

The family finally became an official, so how could they not go because of a heavy snowfall.

Bang bang bang!
Old Bao's wife came to knock on the door of Xiao's house, and after Xiao Damei came out to open the door, she said: "The brick kiln is too dangerous, don't take your children there, if they are burnt by charcoal fire, they will kill people. Keep them at home, we will Brother Jia Kang will come and take them to school."

"Oh, I see." Sister Xiao replied.

Due to the heavy snowfall, the entire Long Liangwei became busy. Gu Jinli gave many orders, and everyone followed them one by one.

Xiao Yantai's home is in the school, and his father Yan Wenlang has already received news that there are many children today, so there is no need to teach the children to read, just watch the children.

There is also the need to prepare breakfast for the children, and each household is too busy to cook for the children.

"Sister-in-law, go and pick up the children. I'll light the fire." Yantai Niang whispered softly. After a few months of raising her, her health has improved a lot. When she was angry, the sorrow on her face was gone, and there was joy in her eyes.

Yan Wenlang thought for a while, and said, "Sure, but you can only burn the fire, don't touch anything else, it's too cold, your body will be better, if you are shocked by the cold water, you may have another illness."

Yantai Niang nodded: "Well, I see, you should go to work quickly, I heard the cry of the child, and the children of each family are probably coming."

"Hey, then I'm leaving." Yan Wenlang moved the chopped firewood to Yantai Niang's feet, so that she could grab it as soon as she stretched out her hand.

Seeing this, Yantai Niang smiled... Originally, she thought that the life in the guard would be very difficult, but unexpectedly it was very good.

Apart from practicing martial arts, the family spends the rest of their time teaching the children to read. In the afternoon, when the children leave, the family can relax and live a comfortable life.

"Woo, mother, mother, I want mother!" Soon, the school became lively, with the laughter of children, and the cry of children.

"Don't cry, don't cry, your mother went to the brick kiln to roast soybeans to prepare food. Today you will be with Brother Yantai, and Brother Yantai will take care of you." After Dou Chengzi, Xiaoyantai became the king of children, helping Parents take care of the children in the school.

But there were too many children here today, and after he finished coaxing one, the other cried again.

"Don't cry, don't cry, there is sugar to eat." Xiao Yantai took out all the caramel that he had pressed at the bottom of the box, and remembered what Gu Jinli said, children who are too young are easy to choke on caramel, so they took a hammer and smashed the caramel , Give them a small piece of food.

After distributing all the candy at home, including Bao Fukang's candy, the children finally stopped crying.

……

In the brick kiln, Bao Zongqi brought [-] soldiers and built a human wall to block the relatives who were roasting soybeans, shouting: "Stay away from the brick kiln, stay away! Wait until the soldiers line up!" Before and after, the soldiers will put your soybeans together with the iron pot into the brick kiln, don't fight, if you fall into the brick kiln because of fighting, you will die!"

After listening to the relatives of each household, there is no dispute, and they line up honestly. When it is their turn, they pour the soybeans into the iron pot. .

Wang Dayou's daughter-in-law was queuing up. Seeing Lao Bao's daughter-in-law passing by, he took the opportunity to ask her, "Ms. Bao, is there going to be a war? Roasting so many soybeans?"
