Chapter 59 The sudden change of weather
Linen, it doesn't feel good to the touch, and it's uncomfortable to touch.

Compared with modern cotton and linen, it is far behind.

"The linen is five cents a foot, it's cheap." The cloth seller looked at Lin Guyu's expression, and responded lightly.

Even though it costs five cents a foot, the cloth is really uncomfortable. She has always been wearing cotton cloth given by someone who married her. She no longer wears the old clothes she used to wear.

I bought eighteen feet of cloth for Chi Hang, thinking that I would have to stuff goose feathers into it, and it would definitely be more than I used to use.

She pulled fifteen feet of cloth for herself, picked grass green and light blue, and chose sapphire blue and light green cloth for the bean paste.

I also pulled some white cotton cloth, thinking that I would put it inside the clothes as a lining, making a total of 45 feet.

Chi Hang stared at Lin Guyu dumbfounded, and watched the cloth seller help her cut the cloth with a smile. These must cost a lot of money.

"How much is it in total?" Lin Guyu watched the waiter fold all the fabrics and put them aside, and then said, "We sold so much, it's cheaper."

The cloth buyer glanced at the cloth in front of Lin Guyu, picked up the abacus on the side and tapped it a few times, then raised his face and looked at Lin Guyu with a smile, "These are 880 characters in total. How about it? Just give it 850."

Lin Guyu did some calculations, and he gave thirty Wen, which is equivalent to three feet of cotton cloth, so he asked the cloth seller to tidy up the cloth, directly picked up his money bag, and took out a tael of silver from it. Pass it to the person, and wait for the person to find the money before leaving with Chi Hang.

It is estimated that Chi Hang's clothes will use seven or eight feet of cloth, and cotton cloth will be used as a lining inside, and goose feathers will be stuffed inside. After such calculations, a whole suit of clothes must use seventeen or eight feet of cloth.

Lin Guyu asked for some linen, and directly put the cloth on. These things were not heavy, and he carried them directly on his back.

Seeing Lin Guyu's happy look, Chi Hang couldn't help curling his lips, and then followed Lin Guyu towards home.

As long as she's happy, it's fine.

When they got home, Lin Guyu hurriedly put away all these cloths. There were still some cloths that her family brought over when they got married. They were all cotton cloths, which could be made into pajamas.

After dinner, Lin Guyu took Dou Sha's previous clothes and thought about cutting the cloth.

Just holding the scissors in his hands, when Lin Guyu wanted to do something, he didn't know how to start.

Lin Guyu found out Chi Hang's thick clothes, and with an oil lamp lit in the room, he prepared to wash them all.

"You understand that you still have to go to the hospital during the day, don't be too tired, go to sleep." Chi Hang took the clothes from Lin Guyu's hands. His clothes had been worn all winter and hadn't been washed. There was a smell on them. taste.

"It happens to be out in the sun tomorrow morning after washing. When we come back at night, it will be dry. I can also cut out the clothes according to this pattern, and stuff some goose feathers for you by the way." Lin Guyu touched Chi Hang's cotton-padded clothes were frowning slightly. The clothes were thick to the touch, but why were they so hard?

Chi Hang couldn't hold back Lin Guyu, holding a branch in one hand and a dagger in the other, he began to cut arrows.

Lin Guyu carefully cut open the gaps in Chi Hang's clothes. To wash this kind of clothes, you only need to wash the outer cloth, and the cotton inside can be dried before wearing.

When Lin Guyu cut the cotton coat, the expression on Lin Guyu's face became even uglier.

There is nothing in it, except a little bit of cotton, and a pile of straw.

Lin Guyu silently threw those things on the ground in disgust.

Not to mention the smell of the clothes, and what's inside are filled with something.

Chi Hang listened to Lin Guyu throwing things away, raised his eyes to watch Lin Guyu take out all the things, and said in a low voice, "I'm going to do the laundry."

"I'll be fine." Lin Guyu finally took out all the things in the clothes, and turned his head to look at Chi Hang, "Do you have any other clothes?"

Chi Hang shook his head lightly, "Not anymore."

Lin Guyu didn't understand why he was so angry. The man in front of him didn't show any expression when he saw the things inside the cotton coat.

"You are busy with your work, I'll just wash it." Lin Guyu said, walked to the side of the stove, poured out the water in the wooden barrel, put the clothes in the basin and started washing.

Chi Hang got up and took the broom beside him, and silently swept out the weeds. The clothes were made for him by Dousha's mother.

In the past few days, Chi Hang sent Lin Guyu and Dou Sha to the clinic in the morning, and went to the mountain by himself with a bow and arrow.

In the evening, after Chi Hang disposed of the prey in his hand, he went to the medical hall to pick up Lin Guyu.

Because of the payment of the population tax, the whole village seemed lifeless. In addition to working in the fields, many people went directly to the mountains to pick wild vegetables.

The sky is getting colder and the ground is full of golden yellow leaves.

When Lin Guyu woke up in the morning, he felt very cold and couldn't help shivering. He hurriedly put on an extra layer of clothes and put on a small vest for Dou Sha.

Chi Hang also put on some more clothes. Looking at the clothes Lin Guyu wore for Dou Sha, he couldn't help reaching out to touch them.

It turned out that when the weather was not hot, it didn't feel much to touch the clothes, but now that he stretched his hands into the clothes, Chi Hang only felt extremely warm.

"These clothes are really nice." Chi Hang couldn't help but said to Lin Guyu who was cooking breakfast.

"It's very warm." Lin Guyu said, thinking of the duck feathers and goose feathers that were only a few dozen catties, he sighed helplessly, "I wanted to charge more, but I didn't expect it to be so little in the end."

After breakfast, when Chi Hang was about to send Lin Guyu and Dou Sha to the town, he saw a little boy standing at the door, leading a little girl, and each of them was carrying a burden.

"Sister?" The little boy took a step forward and handed his burden to Lin Guyu, "Goose Feather."

Lin Guyu reached out and took the package from the man's hand, then went into the room and took out the scale.

"Five catties, 25 Wen." As soon as Lin Guyu finished speaking, he saw the little boy take off the package from the little girl behind him and hand it to Lin Guyu.

"There are more here."

Lin Guyu took it over and took a look. It should be full of goose feathers, "Three catties, fifteen cash."

"It's a total of forty Wen." Lin Guyu said, untied the money bag at his waist, took out forty Wen and handed it to the little boy.

"Thank you." The little boy happily responded, took his sister's hand and ran away.

In fact, those goose feathers add up to only six catties. Lin Guyu said more, because for the sake of the two children, it was not easy for the two of them.

There was nothing to do in the medical clinic. Lu Ziyu saw that there were not many patients, so after thinking about it, he assigned them directly, four doctors, two people in a group, for fifteen days, and the other two doctors could rest at home.

But wages will still be given, one tael per person.

Because there were too many patients some time ago, the medical center gave everyone two taels of silver.

Lin Guyu is in the first half of the month, and after fifteen days, he can rest.

When Lin Guyu was free, she practiced handwriting directly on the table with a brush dipped in water. She learned it very quickly. As long as she didn't write quickly, she could still show the handwriting to others.

"Mother." Dou Sha dragged Lin Guyu towards the backyard and shouted excitedly, "I know a lot of medicine."

Lin Guyu/The corners of his lips slowly curled up, and then he followed Dou Sha to the backyard, "How much do you know?"

"Peony." Dou Sha pointed to the medicinal materials on one pole, and then to the medicinal materials on the other side, "Forsythia, lily seeds, honeysuckle and cinnamon!"

Xiao Si, who has been taking care of Dou Sha very much, said with a smile, "Doctor Lin, Dou Sha is learning quickly, as long as you let him read more, he can remember everything."

"It's a pity that Dou Sha is too young," Lin Guyu couldn't help sighing, "Otherwise I'd just send him to a private school."

Now Dousha is more than one year old, and it is quite possible to call out the names of some medicinal materials.

Lin Guyu touched Dou Sha's hand carefully, felt his hand was warm, and then withdrew it, "Do you know how old is the youngest person who goes to private school?"

"Five years old." Xiaosi said with a smile, reaching out to touch the bean paste, "In two years, you can send him there."

In modern times, many children are sent directly to kindergartens when they are one or two years old.

In fact, it is not true that Dou Sha studies, but he just thinks that if he goes to a private school, he can learn something more or less.

But now it seems not feasible.

In the evening, Chi Hangfeng Chen stood at the door and saw Lin Guyu pulling Dou Sha out, "Go back."

As he said that, Chi Hang squatted down and hugged Dou Sha up, and turned his head to look at Lin Guyu, "It looks much colder today, and it feels like it was cold earlier this year."

Hearing what Chi Hang said, Lin Guyu was slightly taken aback, as if the original body didn't seem to be that cold in his memory, "When did it start to be cold in previous years?"

"It's only the beginning of October." Chi Hang frowned slightly, and couldn't help but said, "But it's much colder than usual. In the past two days, when I went to the mountain, I didn't see many animals."

It was so cold this year, Lin Guyu couldn't help shivering when he thought about it, and looked up at Chi Hang, "Why don't we prepare more firewood when I don't come to the medical center?"

"En." Chi Hang nodded in agreement, thought for a while, and then said, "I'll pick some up these days too."

Lin Guyu nodded, lowered his head a little disappointed, originally thinking about selling down jackets this winter, but he didn't receive many duck feathers and goose feathers.

"It seems that we have to buy more food and put it at home in winter, so that we don't have to go out in winter." Lin Guyu couldn't help but sighed, in this ancient times without heating, she wondered if she could adapt.

Looking at Dou Sha's face, Lin Guyu raised his eyes and looked at Chi Hang with a smile, "In winter, I'll teach my children to read at home."

Listening to Lin Guyu's words, Chi Hang paused, and looked at Lin Guyu with complicated eyes.
