This blizzard was more serious than expected. It fell for three days and three nights in a row, and the snow covered up to my waist when I went out.

In recent decades, there has been no such heavy snowfall in Beijing.

Many of the houses in Fujiazhuang are old houses, the ridges and walls are not so strong, many houses were crushed, and the two thatched huts built by Gu Chenzhi and Lin Yi also collapsed.

A lot of livestock sheds collapsed, and many cattle, sheep and horses were crushed to death.

The Gu family's ancestral house has been around for a while.However, when the house was first built, it was the time when the Gu family was at its most prosperous. The beams were made of the best wood, and they were well maintained, with almost no collapse.

"...When the snow stops, build another room." Lin Yi felt sorry for his thatched hut, went to see it once, and it was all buried by the snow.He looked very reluctant, and turned to Gu Chenzhi.

Gu Chenzhi laughed: "Recover it? After a few months, it's time to go back..."

Lin Yi was slightly silent.

Gu Chenzhi saw the clue and asked him: "Do you want to stay here?"

Lin Yi didn't answer immediately, but he responded with a smile.

Gu Chenzhi thought of Doctor Ling.

With Dr. Ling's death, there is not even a barefoot doctor in the ten miles and eight towns around Fujiazhuang.When the common people are sick, besides carrying it on their own, they just pray to gods and worship Buddha...

Lin Yi wanted to stay and be a barefoot doctor to relieve the sufferings of the common people, Gu Chenzhi agreed very much.

He felt sorry again.

Lin Yi is a good teacher and helpful friend, and Gu Chenzhi respects him very much.When Gu Chenzhi returns to the city, he will definitely open a pharmacy again. If Lin Yi can come and help, Gu Chenzhi will be very grateful.

But Lin Yi stayed.It is also beneficial to the people, so Gu Chenzhi's words did not go deep.

The goose feathers are flying heavily above the head, and the snow is everywhere, and I don't know when it will stop.

The two brothers walked back, but within a few steps they arrived at the Gu family's ancestral house.

Entering the inner courtyard, I saw that the main house had been burned and the stove was burned.

A brocade quilt was spread on the hot kang, and Zhu Zhongjun, who had not recovered from his leg injury, was half lying on the kang, looking at Gu Jinzhi with tender eyes.And Gu Jinzhi.I was doing needlework with the maids, and I kept talking to Zhu Zhongjun.

Anyone can see that Zhu Zhongjun loves Gu Jinzhi very much.

Gu Chenzhi and Lin Yi smiled at each other and entered the room.

When Gu Jinzhi heard footsteps, he quickly put down his needle and thread, and took the maid to scoop up the hot water himself.Wash Gu Chenzhi and Lin Yi's face.

"Has the thatched shed collapsed?" Gu Jinzhi asked the elder brother.

Gu Chenzhi smiled and said: "It's snowing so much, and the thatched shed has no beams, can it not fall? Fortunately, we don't have anything in it, only a few tables and benches. When the snow stops, we can see if we can move it out... "

How can there be half the tone of the eldest son of the Marquis Mansion?Like a small farmer in the countryside, he cherishes things so much.

Gu Jinzhi couldn't help laughing.He laughed and said, "Brother lives so frugally, uncle, aunt and sister-in-law know about it. I'm afraid it will feel sad."

"Every grain is bought with your hands. If you can save it, save as much as you can. It's not shameful." Gu Chenzhi smiled, "My father knows, I'm only happy..."

Zhu Zhongjun also laughed.

He felt that a yamen with Gu Chenzhi's status could run amok in the capital.Who would have thought that Gu Chenzhi lived in a thatched hut in the countryside.Simple tea and light meals, and a few tables and chairs are also distressed?

Lin Yi glanced at Gu Chenzhi.With a smile on his face.

After washing her face, the maid Qiu Yu brought tea.

Gu Chenzhi and Lin Yi sat on the grand teacher's chair, and asked Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun: "What did you talk about just now?"

"...there is so much snow in the capital, I'm afraid it will be even bigger in Saibei. This year there will be cattle, horses and sheep that will freeze to death. The people outside the Great Wall don't have five elements. They only raise some cattle, sheep and horses to trade with us. If the livestock are frozen to death, they have no There is no way to survive, and they have to enter the pass to rob. Besides, the dragon turned over not long ago at Juyongguan, and I don’t know if the fortifications have been built, and whether they can be Mongols.” Gu Jinzhi told Gu Chenzhi and Lin Yi about the topic between her and Zhu Zhongjun.

When she finished speaking, Gu Chenzhi's face was already heavy.

Gu Jinzhi's words hit everyone's concerns.

This year is really unlucky.

"An Nanguo won the battle, and it was when the morale was boosted. I don't think there is anything to worry about." Seeing that Gu Chenzhi and Lin Yi had nothing to say to Gu Jinzhi, Zhu Zhongjun helped smooth things over.

Lin Yi smiled.

Gu Chenzhi sighed.

Just when the little maid came in, it was time for lunch.

After everyone had lunch, Lin Yi and Gu Chenzhi were invited outside.

Someone at the west end of Zhuangzi was hit by a falling beam. A sharp wooden stake was driven into his shoulder, and blood spurted out as soon as he pulled it out. The family members had nothing to do.

Lin Yi heard that he hurriedly carried the medicine box with Gu Chenzhi and went out.

"In the past two days, people have always been injured in Zhuangzi." Gu Jinzhi sighed, "I don't know when this snow will stop..."

While she was talking, another servant girl came in and said that the city sent a carriage, and there was a boy waiting outside, who wanted to come in to greet the princess.

"Who is it?" Gu Jinzhi asked.

"It's Si Jian." The little maid replied.

Gu Jinzhi is too busy to ask me to come in.

After a while, Si Jian walked in quickly.He was wearing a bamboo hat and a coir raincoat, but on his feet were a pair of long boots, even though they were already soaked.

He knelt down to salute Gu Jinzhi, and explained the purpose of his visit: "With such heavy snow, Madam was afraid that there would not be enough rice, grain and vegetables in the countryside, so she brought some here. The carriage has already parked in the outer courtyard..."

Gu Jinzhi was overjoyed.

"How much did you give?" She asked Si Jian.

"Half a carload of cabbage, two pieces of pork, twenty live chickens, twenty live ducks, five wild pheasants, and a large piece of wild pork." Si Jian answered one by one, articulate and without stuttering , exceptionally fluent, "There is also a cart of rice and noodles, and a cart of charcoal."

Gu Jinzhi nodded with a smile, and said with a smile: "Thanks for your hard work, I brought it here in the snow." Then he asked, "Is everything all right at home?"

"Master Eleven has a cold and cough, but everything else is fine." Si Jian replied.

Xiao Shiyi has been weak and sickly since she was a child.

When the weather changed, Little Eleven would catch a cold, and Gu Jinzhi didn't take it to heart.

She nodded, and called Haitang: "Go and get some broken silver, and give it to Si Jian and the boys who passed by for a drink."

Begonia said yes.

Si Jian hurriedly knelt down and thanked: "I will thank the princess for the reward on behalf of the boys."

Gu Jinzhi waved his hand.Get him up.

Haitang quickly took out the money.

She first handed a piece of two taels of broken silver to Si Jian, and said with a smile: "For these two taels of silver, you can buy some wine, buy some catties of cooked chicken and cooked meat, and give it to the boys. , drink and eat yourself."

Si Jian thanked Sister Haitang, and thanked Hui Jinzhi again.

Gu Jinzhi said: "Unload the things, you go back earlier, so as not to worry Madam. Greet us, and say that the prince and I are well. I will return to the city in a few days, Madam, don't worry about it."

Si Jian wrote down one by one.

He turned away.

After Si Jian left, Zhu Zhongjun said with a smile: "When this kid was in the pharmacy, I thought he was good. Now it's even better. Is he your companion?"

Gu Jinzhi nodded: "Yes."

"When I arrive in Luzhou, how about you give me orders?" Zhu Zhongjun asked.

"Okay." Gu Jinzhi said with a smile, "Jiqi from Luzhou. You give me orders..."

Zhu Zhongjun laughed.

Gu Jinzhi's tone seemed jealous, which made Zhu Zhongjun very happy.

Then, he said sternly: "That Jiqi has an unclean background. Keep it by your side, and you deal with her. Isn't it annoying? Leave it to me."

Gu Jinzhi made a straight face on purpose, and said, "Is this reluctance?"

"En." Zhu Zhongjun nodded.Laughing, "I can't bear to worry about you..."

Gu Jinzhi laughed.

She raised her eyebrows and smiled, as if the sun was shining on her face, and Zhu Zhongjun's heart was also warm and bright like the scorching sun.

He thought he would never see Gu Jinzhi smile like this again.

Thinking of this, the eyes are hot.

When encountering Gu Jinzhi's problems, he would be sentimental.

He rolled his eyes slightly.Converge your emotions.

In the middle of the afternoon, the snow finally stopped.

Aunt Li came in with her daughter-in-law and girl.He said he would go back and tidy up the house, and see if he could make a small grass shed to live in first.

Gu Jinzhi pretended to be displeased, and said: "You are too polite. I was here in the spring, and you often sent me some vegetables, and I didn't pretend to be false to you. Now you are so polite, it is obvious that you are so polite. You underestimated me and thought I was cold-faced and cold-hearted. It’s even colder when the snow melts, so how do you live in thatched shed? Wouldn’t it freeze people to death?

If you still remember the past friendship, you can live in peace of mind and wait until the snow melts and the house is repaired before going back.My lord and I are going back to the city for the New Year, but the young master and Mr. Lin want to stay.You all celebrate the New Year together, the two of them, someone will prepare hot dishes and hot meals, and have a reunion dinner. It is also convenient for you, and you can kill two birds with one stone, why not do it? "

Gu Jinzhi wants to stay with Aunt Li's family until the New Year.

Seeing that she was very sincere, Aunt Li said such a thing again, and it seemed false to refuse again.

The family really had no place to live.

Aunt Li took her daughter-in-law and daughters, kowtowed to Gu Jinzhi, and thanked Gu Jinzhi for his kindness.

"You cook delicious food, and the prince likes it. We are here, and you will cook for us for a few days. The prince and I are very grateful." Gu Jinzhi said again.

Aunt Li quickly said yes.

She is equivalent to working in the Gu family's ancestral home.

Gu Jinzhi didn't mention her salary.

After agreeing, Aunt Li took the children out.

Gu Jinzhi went back to the back room.

She planned to sit down and do some sewing with Haitang and Qiuyu, but it was too cold, and seeing that the kang was very warm, she also wanted to go to the kang.

"Haitang, pay attention outside, someone has come in and said." Gu Jinzhi said to Haitang.

After all, the countryside is different from when they were in Gu's house. It was always a little wrong for the couple to sit opposite each other on the kang during the day.

Begonia said yes.

Gu Jinzhi got into the brocade quilt on the kang.

She sat on the other side to keep warm.

Haitang asked her: "What book does the princess want to read?" When Haitang came from home, she brought over the two medical records that Gu Jinzhi had left beside the bed.

Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "It doesn't matter which one you give me..."

Haitang gave her the book.

Zhu Zhongjun fell asleep while sitting.

The house was quiet.

"...Princess, it's the first quarter of the year, is the meal set?" Haitang suddenly spoke, breaking the silence in the room.

Gu Jinzhi raised his head and saw the bright light coming in from the closed window, he thought it was still early.Hearing what Haitang said, he thought that there was snow outside, reflected on the window paper, which made it so bright.

"It's so late, have Eldest Young Master and Mr. Lin come back?" Gu Jinzhi asked.

Haitang shook her head and said, "Outside said there is no..."

Gu Jinzhi frowned.
