Nongmen Jinfeng: Cold-noodled husband and little daughter-in-law

Chapter 980 It’s Snowing in Qingyang County
After paying the wages to everyone and letting them leave, Fang Xiaofu asked his own staff and the two women from last night to continue making sleeves for the children.

Since sleeves are more convenient to use, why not make more for them to use at different times?
I bought some more fabric today, but enough cotton. She meant to use up all the cotton today.Then she made another hat for Fang Ziyuan.

Everyone had hats, and the extras were sent to Fuyuan Restaurant, and left to Fang Zhiyi and his group, so they also wrote to explain the matter, so as not to miss it.

After seeing that everyone was wearing hats, Fang Xiaofu realized that she didn't, and they didn't.Everyone was so busy sewing for others that they forgot about their own.

So I rushed out again overnight.It was late at night after this busy work, and I was exhausted enough, so I fell asleep after a simple grooming.

In the early morning of the next day, it was still a gloomy day, and the cold north wind kept blowing, making everyone feel like their hearts were freezing just by looking at it.Fortunately, there was no frightening wind, otherwise it would be quite dangerous for the carriage to move forward.

Everyone packed up after breakfast and set off.

Both the horse rider and the driver put on elbow pads, knee pads, cuffs, scarves, hats, and cotton shoes. They were warm and comfortable. They didn’t feel how cold it was, and they praised the little girl’s wisdom in her heart. .

The person sitting in the carriage was covered with a quilt, his hands were covered in the armholes, and he wore a hat on his head. He didn't feel cold, but was so warm that he felt drowsy.

Fang Xiaofu also distributed the cloaks he bought last night to those women, Yuan Sanniang, Chunliu, Xia He, Tang Cai, and Tang Xue. Whether they were women or came from the south, they couldn't bear the cold even more.

Then give them the needlework, fabric and two small bags of cotton left over, and let them continue to make baby cotton clothes.

The dozen or so pieces I bought before and some of the ones I rushed to make later were given priority to the youngest children. Now let them make one piece according to their age.

With this close-fitting, warm and easy-to-use cotton coat, it is worth buying two of those cotton coats.And she and her brothers are all put on, ready before going out.

In the morning, when the convoy passed through the town, everyone stopped and everyone ate a bowl of hot soup dumplings, which made it easier to find the toilet.

Because of the cold weather, Fang Xiaofu did not allow the children to settle on the side of the road, lest they get a colder place and freeze their birds.So it is recommended to stop and rest at the right time before going.

At this time, I also met the Twelfth Steward who was rushing south after receiving Fang Zhiyi's order, and only then did I know that it was raining in Taichang County and light snow was already falling in Deyang County, so I had to leave quickly.

And the twelve stewards were also delayed for two days due to weather problems. Knowing from Fang Xiaofu and the others that Fang Zhiyi was already in Xuhuo County, the twelve stewards hurriedly finished their meal and left.

Fang Xiaofu asked them to take the nanny along the way, so as not to arrange for someone to deliver it, and the road ahead would be even more difficult, not to mention it would be a lot of trouble.

The nurse was paid a lot of money, so she fed Tang Ming again and then left with a salute.

Hearing that it was raining in Taichang County and snowing in the north, she felt apprehensive. Although she felt sorry for the child, she also had a small family, so it was better to go back earlier to be safe.

The motorcade also set off in a hurry, drank hot tea at the roadside teahouse at noon, ate two big steamed buns, made some hot tea with steamed buns, fed Tang Ming some, and then continued on their way.

At night, they finally arrived in Taichang County, and the people who went ahead almost cried when they saw them.

Because they stayed in Taiyang for one more day, and it was raining again in Taichang, those who went ahead did not dare to go any further, for fear that everyone would not be able to connect, so they stayed tremblingly.

In the end, it turned out to be an extra day of waiting, one day is nothing, but the one-day fee for the best inn in the city is not a small amount, let alone half a room for a package?
If the masters don't come again, they will really go back crying.

Worried about the continuous rain and the trouble of finding a nanny on the return trip, Fang Xiaofu decided not to take the nanny with him, but just find someone to take Tang Ming with him until the next day.

Last time they passed through Taichang and didn't stay, and stayed in the town, but this time they stayed in Taichang for one night, which made the shopkeeper of Fuyuan Restaurant in Taichang very busy.

However, he also received the news in advance and brought the new wet nurse over, and then stretched out the coir raincoat and bamboo hat.Fang Xiaofu and the others bought only enough for their brothers to use last time. There are so many people accompanying them this time, so of course they need to add more.

And when the weather got colder, the empty and spare carriages were also full. Everyone took turns to ride the horses, and one person was in charge of two horses, so three people could switch back to the shift, so it would always be easier.

But it’s inconvenient when it’s raining. It’s still raining in the winter. You can’t let the shift workers stretch their arms and pull the reins in the rain, right?Their kneepads and sleeves can keep out the cold, but not the rain.

Therefore, at night, Fang Xiaofu suggested that half of the horses should be kept in the canteen, and the extra horses would be taken by car to Deyang County when the rain stopped, and then sent back when the weather was fine.

Anyway, it's not far from Qingyang County here, and it's still a relay, it won't bother them, right?
Everyone agreed after hearing this, so when they set off the next day, all the boys got into the carriage, and only the guards were still riding horses in coir raincoats and bamboo hats.

But the rain still couldn't pick up the speed, they narrowly threw themselves into the inn in the second town, asked the shopkeeper to find a young daughter-in-law to take Tang Ming with them, and added rice soup, which tasted much better than steamed buns made with tea, Tang Ming I fell asleep comfortably after eating.

It was also raining in the small town, and we set off an hour later the next day. As we approached Deyang County, the sky became brighter and the rain lightened up, but there were no flakes of snow.

It seemed that the snow had stopped, Fang Xiaofu opened the window to see the brightening sky, and couldn't help but feel happy.

This road is really tossing enough.She had to be thankful that she had money, otherwise how much hardship would she have suffered along the way?

However, when they entered the small town in Qingyang County three days later, they were dumbfounded when they saw the white frost on the side of the road.

This is not frost, this is obviously just a light snowfall!
At noon, they booked a small restaurant in the town and had a hot meal. It was their first meal back home. It was only when they chatted with the boss that they found out that it was snowing in Qingyang County.

Fang Xiaofu was surprised at first, and finally heaved a sigh. It's been 20 days of walking this way, and it's already the last day of October. It's not unusual for it to snow.

After all, in ancient times, the land was sparsely populated and there were no tall buildings and mansions, factories and cars, and no global warming. It was still in the north, and it was very common for snow to fall at the end of October in the lunar calendar.

Only she, a time traveler, would make such a fuss.

It was only early spring when she came to this world, and it's already winter now. She has been busy making money all year, and she hasn't had a good rest, and she hasn't traveled anywhere.

Next year, we still need to build more businesses, add more production lines, and earn more money.

"Auntie, eat quickly, it's getting cold." Tang Si's voice brought back Fang Xiaofu's thoughts.
