Chapter 125 Caravan
early morning.

Pushing open the door, a gust of cold air hits the face, and a layer of frost hangs on the branches in the yard, like blooming white plum blossoms.

"so cold!"

Fat Miao'er shivered, shrinking her neck, and goose bumps crawled up her cheeks along her fair neck.

"Wear more, don't freeze."

Liu Ye'er ran over, took the jacket and put it on Fat Miao'er.

"Ah!"

As soon as she put her hand down, she sneezed.

Fat Miao'er turned her head and said leisurely: "It's too cold at night."

It was okay during the day, but at night the temperature dropped sharply and the whole room was chilly, so she could only wrap herself up in a ball and slip into Liu Ye'er's arms.

The two cuddled together to keep each other warm.

"Yeah, it's too cold!"

Liu Ye'er nodded in agreement.

Stretching out his hand and rubbing the tip of Xuebai's nose, he said with a wry smile: "The main reason is that the firewood in our house has not been burned properly."

Fat Miao'er and the others have been burning corncobs these days. Compared with corn stalks and wheat stalks, it is still resistant to burning.

But it can only last for an hour or two. In the middle of the night, when the fire is extinguished and the temperature drops sharply, several people will feel uncomfortable.

"I have to tell my elder brother to get some branches from the mountain while the weather is good." Liu Ye'er suggested.

Fat Miao'er nodded: "The thicker the better, it's more resistant to burning."

"Ok!"

The two had a discussion, and they told Li Xiaodao, Compass, and Wei Shu about the matter during the meal.

This has reached their hearts, and the three of them were also deeply troubled. After hearing Liu Ye'er's words, they hit it off immediately.

"The branches are too thin. When the bone soup and steamed buns are sold out at noon, I will take my nerd and my abacus to the mountain to chop some back."

Li Xiaodao thought, if they wanted to keep warm, they would have to burn it all winter, ten bundles or eight bundles would definitely not be enough.

Besides, there are still frogs at home. There are a total of five wooden barrels, and all of them have been moved to their house at the moment.

If it continues like this, I don't know if it will fall into hibernation. If it doesn't work, I can only eat it.

When mentioning this, Li Xiaodao remembered: "How is the tadpole of the old Zhang family?"

The weather was cold, not just their family, but the whole village, Qingyang Town, Yulin County, and even the north.

"It's well maintained."

Fat Miao'er leaned on the table with her arms resting on her chin.

"I just went to see it two days ago. His house was warmed up. I heard from Grandma Zhang that her house gets up in the middle of the night to burn it every day, and it can last until the next morning..."

"That's pretty good. The Zhang family is capable, so they can't go wrong!" Li Xiaodao nodded.

Lao Zhang's frog raising family followed them, and he also hoped that this family could raise frogs.

In this way, not only the old Zhang family can make money, but they can also make money.

Both benefit from this.

After dinner.

Li Xiaodao harnessed the donkey cart, Luo Pan and Wei Shu put the steamed corn bread and boiled bone soup on the cart, and were about to go to the town.

Just at this time, shopkeeper Li led Li Hongzao and her brother Li Hongliang over.

"Yo! Are you going to town too?"

Shopkeeper Li smiled and waved to several people.

"Let's go to the pier."

Li Xiaodao looked at shopkeeper Li, then at Li Hongzao and Li Hongliang and said with a smile: "Uncle Li, you are going to take Hongzao and Hong Liang to the town, do you want me to take you for a while?"

The road to the town and the wharf are actually the same road, but one goes forward at the entrance of the town and the other turns east.

"It's not that I heard that the caravan is coming and will stop in the town for two days to sell goods. The two children, Hong Zao and Hong Liang, are arguing to watch the excitement."

Shopkeeper Li looked at his son and daughter dotingly.

"Let's stop by and ask Fat Miaoer if he wants to go together?"

Fat Miao'er's family lived at the east end of the village, and the shopkeeper Li and the three of them didn't come along the way, so they obviously came here specially to find Fat Miao'er.

"Go, go, I will go too!"

Fat Miao'er heard the sound outside in the courtyard, stepped on her short legs, and ran out.

Immediately rushed to Li Hongzao, took her hand, raised her head and said to shopkeeper Li: "Uncle Li, I will go with Hongzao."

Fat Miao'er is young and full of curiosity about everything. When he hears that a caravan is coming, don't wait to see it.

"Sister, you go too!"

Fat Miao'er shouted into the courtyard, scratching his neck.

"I'm not going."

Liu Ye'er heard the voice and walked to the door, she shook her head at Fat Miao'er,
He warned: "There must be a lot of people in the town right now, so don't run around and follow the elder brother and the second brother."

"Understood!" Fat Miao'er nodded obediently.

"Buy some more cotton!"

Liu Ye'er is going to use her spare time to make a pair of cotton shoes for each of them, and keep them for the winter.

"Okay!" Fat Miao'er nodded and asked, "Do you need anything else?"

"Tear a few more pieces of cloth, and the quilts and mattresses at home will have to be replaced."

Liu Ye'er explained everything she needed to buy.

Fat Miaoer listened carefully and nodded silently.

"I got it!"

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand to Liu Ye'er, and then sat on the donkey cart with Li Hongzao.

The two sat in the back row of the car, one on the left and one on the right, with their short legs dangling in the air, swaying from side to side, and the frequency of their movements was surprisingly consistent.

"Why didn't you catch the car?"

Fat Miaoer remembered that Li Hongzao's house had an ox cart.

"My father said that the town is close. You don't need to drive a car. You can walk there in a few steps. You can also exercise. Unlike you, you have to pull things."

"That's true!"

"..."

The caravan came, and Qingyang Town became lively. When Fat Miao'er and others arrived, villagers from all over the world flocked to the market.

"Don't go in, there are too many people and too crowded, we can just get in here."

Shopkeeper Li called Li Xiaodao to stop, then jumped off the donkey cart, and then changed hands to carry Fat Miao'er and Li Hongzao down.

He urged: "Go to the pier quickly, don't delay the business, earning money is the most important thing."

"Okay!" Li Xiaodao nodded.

"Uncle Li, let's go there first. Fat Miao'er needs to trouble you to take care of me. I'll come over after I deliver these things to the pier."

As Li Xiaodao said, he turned and looked at the compass.

Compass grinned and jumped out of the carriage on his own.

"Brother, you and the second brother can go to the pier, I will accompany Fat Miaoer here."

The pier doesn't need too many people. In the past, when there was something at home, Wei Shu took care of it alone.

"go Go!"

Li Xiaodao glanced at them, they all grew up together, and he could see through the small ninety-nine in Luo Pan's heart at a glance.

To put it bluntly, just like Fat Meow, young, curious and playful.

"Let's go!"

With Li Xiaodao's permission, Luo Pan and Li Hongliang hopped ahead.

They were ten years old and nine years old, and they just happened to be able to play together.

"Have you heard that the caravan that came this time is different from the previous ones. They have not only been to the north, but also to the south, and they have a lot of good goods in their hands."

"More than that! They've even been to Persia!"

"Where is Persia?"

"I don't know, it's quite far anyway. It is said that the person there has yellow hair and blue eyes."

"Yellow hair, blue eyes, that's not a monster!"

"..."

The nearby villagers talked while walking, and their voices came to the ears of Fat Miao'er and others.
