Rebirth of Shuangshu

Chapter 20
Huangyun Wanli is full of wind, white waves and nine snow-capped mountains.

Snowing.

The Hot Spring Villa private school is closed.Lin Xiaoxiao gave the children a holiday.

It was snowing heavily outside.

The main hall was so warm and fuzzy that people drowsy.

Energy storage electric heaters are much easier to use than charcoal basins.

There are piles of medicinal herbs on the table, and the bamboo basket at the corner of the table is also full of medicinal herbs.

Some of these herbs came from the Little Kunlun Mountains, and some were traded from other savage villages.

Lin Xiaoxiao sat in front of the desk, holding a copy of "Compendium of Materia Medica" in her hand, and compared and identified these herbs.

Erya sat beside her, responsible for recording and organizing.

A small couch was added near the electric heater.Sanya and Xiao Siwo slept soundly on it.

Xiao Si is the fourth son of the public loser, and the big name is the public loser.It was given by Lin Xiaoxiao.

Xiaosi is less than two years old, and originally lived with Gongshu and his wife, but was sent to the hot spring villa in the past few days.

Speaking of public losers, the past two years have also changed a lot.

Referring to Lin Xiaoxiao's bicycle, Gongshugou made a wooden bicycle.

Through the connections of the village head, Gong Shugou donated his bicycle to the nobles in the city, and obtained the status of a Chinese.

Now Gongshu and his wife live in the city and also run a woodware shop.

At the end of the year, he took over a big job, called Da Ya into the city to help, and changed Er Ya to follow Lin Xiaoxiao.

Because there is no one to take care of the children, Sanya and Xiaosi are also sent to the hot spring villa.

After sitting for almost an hour, Lin Xiaoxiao got up and stretched her arms and legs.

Seeing that Erya was still recording, Lin Xiaoxiao persuaded: "Don't sit for a long time, get up and move around, otherwise you will easily get sick."

Erya is more introverted than Daya, not so talkative, but she is diligent and obedient.

Erya put down the herb, imitated Lin Xiaoxiao's example, stood up, kicked her legs and shook her arms.

Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered that Gongshugou asked someone to give something to Erya yesterday, so she chatted with Erya in a low voice.

"Was the helper from your woodware shop yesterday?"

"It's not a helper, it's my father's new apprentice."

"Did he say anything new in town?"

"My father has taken on a new job. The store may be busy until the New Year. If no one comes to pick us up, let us celebrate the New Year in the villa."

"Do you miss home?"

"No, I like to follow Shannv."

"Then why do you look unhappy?"

"A notice was put up in the city, saying that the former conscripts are coming back."

"Zheng Guo agrees to let him go back to Hu State?"

"That's what the notice says."

"It's a good thing, why are you worried?"

"Aunt Jiang's family."

Aunt Jiang's husband and son both joined the army, but the death notice was issued the year before last.

"Are you worried that Mrs. Jiang will be sad if she finds out?"

"When I was young, Brother Jiang often told stories to a group of us children. Both Uncle Jiang and Brother Jiang are good people."

Swords and guns have no eyes on the battlefield, so there is no good guy or bad guy.

Jiang's father and son took the initiative to join the army and risked their lives for the future.This was their choice, and the ending was unsatisfactory, but it was not what outsiders praised.

Bereavement cannot be persuaded.

"The dead are gone, and so are the living. If Aunt Jiang is willing, I can help her hold a funeral ceremony."

Ancient sacrifices were very particular, and Lin Xiaoxiao didn't know if it was appropriate.

Aunt Jiang was much calmer than expected.

"Thank you Shannv for your kindness, but their father and son have passed away for many years, so don't bother them if there is nothing to do."

It snowed heavily for three days in a row. Since the children were on vacation, Lin Xiaoxiao only took people to clean up the snow inside the villa, leaving the roads outside alone.

There are a few little snowmen piled up in the yard of the hot spring villa.Everyone in the main hall is playing games.

Outdoor sports are not easy to do now.Lin Xiaoxiao took the feather shuttlecock and table tennis balls out to do some indoor sports.

One morning, everyone did some exercise, and their complexion improved a lot, and the depression that had been stuffy in the house for several days also dissipated.

It was almost time to cook, so Aunt Jiang and Erya went to the kitchen.Sanya was a little tired, lying on the couch to play with Xiaosi.

Lin Xiaoxiao was sweating all over, took clean underwear and went to the hot spring pool.She is used to taking a bath after exercising.

Lin Xiaoxiao doesn't take a long bath during the day, she just soaks in the hot spring for a few minutes and then comes out.

At noon, I ate stewed pork vermicelli, millet cake and mushroom egg drop soup.The pork is fresh meat from the warehouse, and the vermicelli is Pueraria vermicelli exchanged from other savage villages, with yellow sprouts added.Some mushrooms are picked by Xiao Kunlun, and some are exchanged.

Lin Xiaoxiao once thought about planting mushrooms artificially.

It turns out that there are a lot of mushrooms in the wild resources, and it is impossible to eat them all.

There is no need for labor, as long as it is picked on many mountains, and then dried in the sun after returning, or put directly into the warehouse to keep fresh.

Pueraria lobata is an official medicine here, not only can be used as medicine, but also can be used to make linen fabrics.

Ge Guan regularly purchases Ge Gen on behalf of the government every year.There are savage villages that specialize in growing kudzu root and make a living from it.

The cotton robe that Lin Xiaoxiao is wearing now is made of kudzu hemp woven from kudzu root.

By the way, cotton hadn't been used in this era, and probably hadn't even been discovered yet.

The so-called cotton robe is just Lin Xiaoxiao's personal habit of calling it.This kind of robe is filled with catkins and reed flowers.Under Lin Xiaoxiao's suggestion, now everyone also uses duck feathers and chicken feathers.

There is also a cotton gown with animal fur as the inner layer.This cost is more expensive.

In the afternoon, Lin Xiaoxiao and Erya were still sitting in front of the desk looking through herbs.

Lin Xiaoxiao's father was a "barefoot doctor" in the village when he was young. There are many books on traditional Chinese medicine at home, such as "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Shen Nong's Materia Medica", "Huang Di Nei Jing", "Qian Jin Fang", "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" "etc.

Lin Xiaoxiao was not interested in these before, but now she can only learn and sell by herself.

There is no way, there are too few doctors here, and people always have headaches.

Sanya and Xiaosi fell asleep on the couch again.Aunt Jiang was sitting beside her doing needlework.

The main hall was quiet, occasionally Lin Xiaoxiao and Erya's whispered conversation could be heard.

Suddenly, human voices and noisy running sounds came from the yard.

"Shannu, it's not good," Mei Ya rushed into the main hall from the outside, "The owner of the hot spring villa is here, and he is at the village chief's house now. The village chief asked me to come over and tell Shannu to make some preparations quickly."

Lin Xiaoxiao was stunned for a while before she realized, and jumped up from the stool.

Wu Yong also rushed in from the outside.The two came together, and he drove Meiya on a wooden bicycle.

"Shannv, the village head asked me to bring a sign to enter the city. If necessary, the village head asked me to take you into the city immediately to hide for a while."

Why did the owner of the hot spring villa come here?Is it still snowing outside?

Lin Xiaoxiao stomped a few steps back and forth, and said to everyone in the main hall: "Remove things first, and remove all the things in the power supply room."

Lin Xiaoxiao feels that the most important thing in her hands is the solar power supply system, and no matter what, she cannot let others take it away.

Lin Xiaoxiao immediately took Wu Yong and others to the roof to remove the solar panels, and then removed all the electrical wires and other electrical appliances in the villa, and put them all into the warehouse.
