What did you say? Am I a pauper again?

Chapter 290 Sweater
"Yinyin, come and sit here. I'll pour you a glass of water." Li Ran put down the oil paper bag in his hand.

Jing Yuanzhi sat on the stool and watched Wumao eating goat milk dumplings.

"What do you think? Are you satisfied with this reason?" Jing Yuanzhi asked Ba Mao in his heart.

"Hmph, it's okay, just barely passable." Ba Mao snorted twice arrogantly.

Jing Yuanzhi had a smile on his face.

Li Ran brought her a glass of water. Jing Yuanzhi took it and took a sip. It had a sweet floral scent.

"With honey?"

"Well, I guessed that you would like sweet food, so I put this for you." Li Ran said with a smile.

"We have a lot of honey at home. Take a jar back with you when you leave later."

"Is it wild? Brother Li Ran is so awesome!" Wild honey tastes very good, Jing Yuanzhi likes it very much.

"If you like, I'll give you more." Li Ran said with a smile.

"Woof woof~" Wumao finished eating the small square of goat's milk and rolled on the ground in satisfaction.

"Brother Li Ran, when did you pick up Wumao?" Jing Yuanzhi asked, looking at the milky Wumao on the ground.

"Two days ago, on my way to town, I saw this little guy hiding in a bush, whimpering and crying, his body was a little cold. I felt sorry for it so I picked it up. I hope it can guard the house in the future." said Li Ran.

"It's very cute." Wumao is a very common local dog, but now it is still chubby and very cute when it is young.

"If you like, take him back." Li Ran said with a smile, so that he could use the five cents as an excuse to go find Yinyin to play with.

"No need." Jing Yuanzhi shook his head.

"Wumao has already recognized Brother Li Ran as his master. Besides, it's not good for me to take away someone else's favor. I can just visit him often in the future. It's not far away." Jing Yuanzhi said while rubbing Wumao's belly.

Li Ran's eyes lit up when he heard this, yes!

This is also good, even better than his idea.

Jing Yuanzhi played with Wumao for a short while and then left. Li Ran took Wumao and sent her home.

Winter soon arrived and the weather was cold.

Not many people in the village walk around outside. Except for unnecessary things, everyone basically stays at home. This way they can save some energy and eat less.

Although the conditions in Huangjia Village are considered good, no family dares to eat wantonly in winter.

Moreover, there are some ferocious beasts in the deep mountains. If they cannot find food, they may come to the village and eat people.

This is also one of the reasons why the house where Jing Yuanzhi and his family live now has been left untouched for so many years, and why few people have set their sights on it.

Huang Dad and his family were naturally aware of the danger, so as early as early winter, they built a fence outside their house and transplanted many thorny shrubs from the mountain to plant next to the fence.

The sheep pens were also repaired with great care. In winter, for the wild beasts in the mountains that could not find food, the goats they raised at home were absolutely attractive to those beasts.

They have no shortage of food for the winter, but they must ensure safety.

Jing Yuanzhi didn't expect the winter here to be so cold. If he had known earlier, he would have asked Huang Die and the others to make a kang.

Now she has two quilts and a thick blanket underneath, but she still feels a little cold when she sleeps at night.

There is thick snow outside, making it inconvenient for people to move around.

Li Ran also doesn't come as often as before.

It was a rare day when the sun came out, but although it was dazzling, it had no warmth at all.

It was still freezing cold when I walked outside.

"Sister Yinyin, come and wash your face." When Jinnian noticed some noise in Jingyuanzhi's room, he poured hot water for her. "Thank you, Jinnian." Jingyuanzhi picked up a towel and washed her face, then brushed her teeth.

The kitchen was already steaming; Mother Jiang and the eldest brother were making breakfast in the kitchen.

Jing Yuanzhi sniffed and said, “There were egg tarts this morning. They smelled delicious!”

There are also pies, with meat filling, red bean filling, and pumpkin porridge.

Very rich!
"Yinyin, head of the household, Chunlei, Jinnian, come and have dinner!" Mother Jiang shouted while standing at the kitchen door.

Jing Yuanzhi finished brushing his teeth and rinsing his mouth in a few seconds, then followed Jinnian in.

Because it is cold in winter, they eat in the kitchen.

There is a fire in the stove, so it is very warm, and the cold food like rice cooks slower.

Jing Yuanzhi took a red bean pie first, and Jinnian had already served her pumpkin porridge and placed it in front of her.

The whole family felt helpless when seeing Jinnian's action. Jinnian was really too diligent.

There is no free time at home. She is always doing this or that. Jiang's mother can't find anything to do.

They also said that at home, she only needed to do the same thing as Yinyin, but Jinnian still couldn't sit still.

However, after hearing what they said, Jinnian felt better, but when she was with Jing Yuanzhi, she still kept doing things for her.

"Thank you, Jinnian. Come, have a pie." Jing Yuanzhi gave Jinnian a meat-filled pie. She liked eating meat very much.

Jinnian took the pie, a faint smile revealed in his calm eyes.

After breakfast, there is nothing to do.

Mother Jiang was knitting a sweater using the method Jingyuanzhi taught her.

These wools are plucked from sheep. Goats have a thick layer of wool on their bodies in winter.

They used a comb to comb the sheep, kept the wool, washed it, and twisted it into thread, which they then used to weave sweaters.

Although the sweater is a bit prickly, it is very warm.

Huang Dad and Jiang Mu were all very surprised. They had originally had insufficient cotton at home, but having the wool solved the problem.

In addition to knitting sweaters, Jiang's mother also knitted wool blankets.

There are many sheep in the family, so it is enough to weave a blanket for everyone.

Jiang's mother couldn't bear to throw away the extra wool, so she knitted some woolen trousers.

Now she was knitting woolen trousers. After cutting the thread and tying the knot, Mother Jiang picked up the trousers and shook them.

"Yinyin, go call your eldest brother and take these two sets of sweaters and trousers to Ran." Li Ran had a very good relationship with them and helped his family a lot. Besides, Ran had no parents and it would definitely not be so comfortable for him to live alone, so Mother Jiang knitted him a sweater and trousers, and she also planned to knit him a blanket.

But the weather is already very cold, so I'll give the sweater and trousers to Li Ran first, let him wear them first, and then give him the blanket later.

"Mom, my brother seems to be in the ice cellar. Let me take him there." Jing Yuanzhi took the sweater and trousers.

"The road is difficult to walk on. If I ask your elder brother to take you there, what if you fall?" Jiang's mother didn't want Jing Yuanzhi to go out.

"Mom, I'm fine. I will be very careful." Jing Yuanzhi has never gone out since it started snowing.

She was almost suffocating at home.

"Okay, but you have to be careful. Let Ran take you back when you come back." Looking at the eager expression on her daughter's face, Jiang's mother finally compromised.

"Well, mom, don't worry, I will be very careful!" Jing Yuanzhi's face suddenly broke into a smile.
