Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 220 It's Snowing
Snowing!The biggest snowfall after entering winter is finally here!

Xue Lang had just had the cotton-padded jacket for the saint made and sent out, and after making two mattresses, heavy snow came!Overnight, the world seemed to be painted white.

In the morning, Xue Lang woke up by himself, neither Lamei nor Dongzhi came to call him.However, Xue Lang doesn't know the time. After traveling for so long, he still doesn't know how to count the time by the color of the sky.Wrapped in a cashmere quilt, with a burning charcoal pot in the room, he didn't feel cold. Thinking of the winter solstice and winter solstice that hadn't come to call him, Xue Lang jumped up, wrapped himself in a fur, and ran out to knock on the door one by one——

It's so cold, don't wake me up for fear of accidents.

Xue Lang treats his servants very generously as long as he does not make mistakes and abides by his rules.Since selling ice in the summer to make money, I have paid for many woolen quilts, as well as woolen blankets, sheepskins, etc. I also used ordinary wood to make beds for the servants, and spread them with sheepskins and woolen blankets. Incidents of people freezing to death occurred.

Most of the people these days are malnourished and have poor body resistance, and people freeze to death every year.In order to survive the winter, Xue Lang was well prepared.Therefore, no one had any accidents in Tingfengyuan.

The doctor Su next door, Xue Lang, was about to call Jiang Lin to wake him up, but the doctor Su knocked on the door in good spirits: "Wanfu, Wanfu! It's snowing heavily, hurry up and wake your master up, don't freeze!"

Xue Lang said loudly: "Thank you, Dr. Su, we were going to wake you up too, and you got up!"

Su Han said: "I grew up in the mountains with my family teacher since I was a child, and I am used to the cold. The cold here is far worse than that in the mountains, and I don't feel cold."

All right!Save a mattress!
Probably because people who practice martial arts are in better health than ordinary people, and Jiang Lin doesn't feel cold. Xue Lang even put on thermal underwear and other clothes in furs. Jiang Lin only wore a thick robe, and then added a sheepskin Jacket will be done.

Su Han was also dressed in the same way. Seeing that all the people in the Tingfeng Institute had already woken up, he said, "Since Xue Zhizhi is fine with you, I will take my leave first and go to the doctor's office to have a look."

Xue Lang persuaded: "It's snowing so hard, and the weather is cold, I'll ask Ah Tu to make some hot noodle soup first, eat a bowl before going."

Su Han said without hesitation: "It's too late. Yesterday, the hospital sent a patient who was injured by a fall while riding a horse. It's such a cold weather. I'm afraid the condition will change. I have to go and see."

After finishing speaking, he couldn't help licking his lips, and said: "Ah Tu's craftsmanship is getting more and more difficult to let go, Ah Tu remember to leave food for me."

After giving instructions, he put on the bamboo hat and coir raincoat and went to the doctor's office.

Xue Lang laughed. Although Su Han is a bit off-line at times, he has excellent medical ethics and superb medical skills. He is a good doctor.

Dr. Su has already gone to perform his duties, and Xue Lang can't be idle, so he ordered Ah Tu to go to the kitchen to light a fire and make hot noodle soup for everyone.However, Jiang Lin couldn't wait any longer, put on his clothes, took his stick and went to the barracks.In the end, only Xue Lang could enjoy the hot noodle soup.

After eating the noodle soup, I asked Wanfu to bring the horse, and rode directly to the farm to check——

In this kind of weather, you can only ride a horse, not a carriage.Fortunately, after traveling for more than half a year, Xue Lang finally learned how to ride a horse. The horse presented by Her Royal Highness was extremely docile. No accidents.

This time it was snowing, Xue Lang finally didn't need to wear his sneakers anymore, Dr. Su would tan the fur, the deer sent by Dou Kou, after peeling and tanning, they all made leather boots, not only warm in winter, but also don't have to worry about the shoes Wet with melted snow.

Xue Lang had two pairs of moccasin boots, Jiang Lin had two pairs, and Dr. Su had two pairs.There were few people in Xue Lang's courtyard, and the servants moved around a lot. Xue Lang bought sheepskins and made two pairs for each of them, so there was no delay in doing things.

The farm has already made preparations for cold protection before winter. A lot of thatch was cut on the mountain, and the pig house and poultry house were paved.Therefore, the farm did not suffer any major losses, except that two chickens froze to death and were directly given to the people in the farm for tooth sacrifice.

After inspecting the farm, when returning home, I happened to meet Her Highness the Princess who had just returned from the military camp. Seeing that Xue Lang was wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, and came back in snow, he asked, "Has Youyang gone to the farm?"

Xue Lang: "Returning to Your Highness, I just went to the farm for a run. Fortunately, the cold protection measures are in place, but two chickens were frozen to death, and there is no other major loss."

Her Royal Highness did not hide her displeasure at all, and said disapprovingly: "This matter makes people go for a trip, why do you need to go in person? You Yang is so disrespectful to his body, it makes people feel very unhappy."

Jiong Xue Lang, could it be that his body is very weak in the eyes of Her Royal Highness?Xue Lang felt that this required a good theory.So he said: "Your Highness, although this subordinate does not know martial arts, his health is not bad."

Her Royal Highness directly retorted: "If you are in good health, why did you faint outside Weize Pass?"

All right!Speaking of this, there is no reason to refute it. It cannot be said that it is because of time travel!

Seeing that Xue Lang had nothing to say, Her Royal Highness directly ordered: "Go back home, drink a bowl of ginger soup to drive away the cold, so as not to catch the wind and cold."

Xue Lang didn't even have any room to object, he was taken back to the mansion directly, Tingfengyuan couldn't go back, so he could only follow behind the stern-faced Princess, to her office, waiting to be poured ginger soup.

So, when the princess went to the backyard to change clothes, Xue Lang was fed ginger soup, which made his face turn green——

There is no sugar in this ginger soup!

Xue Lang directly asked Chuxue who was next to him: "Miss Chuxue, Your Highness just came back from outside, so you should also drink ginger soup, right?"

Chuxue smiled "puchi" and said, "Xue Jianyi can rest assured, the lady's ginger soup has sugar in it."

Xue Lang couldn't believe it: "Could it be that my ginger soup is the only one without sugar?"

Miss Chuxue smiled slightly and stopped talking.

Xue Lang: "..."

It's a pity that there was no trade union in the Tang Dynasty, and there was no place to sue the princess for abusing employees!What about Corporal Lixian?
Just when she was sad, Her Royal Highness came out, wearing a padded jacket.However, the leather of the padded jacket is a layer of dark silk, which is very beautiful.Walking out with his head upright, he said calmly: "Looking at Youyang's complexion, you have obviously learned a lesson. If you don't cherish yourself like this in the future, I will ask someone to make a very strong ginger soup for Youyang to take."

Fuck!How can there be such an open threat!However, Xue Lang had no choice but to accept this threat. Who made the bowl of ginger soup just now so impressive and unforgettable for a lifetime!Therefore, Xue Lang could only respond politely: "Here!"

Only then was Princess Pingyang satisfied, and she turned to say: "The team that bought grain from Chang'an arrived in Weize County yesterday. They wanted to transport it back overnight, but were blocked by heavy snow, so they had to delay for a few days. In a few days, the food raised has exceeded our needs, although it is all old food, but it has exceeded expectations, and the difficulty of military food has finally been solved."

Xue Lang said: "I planned to come to His Highness to ask His Highness about transporting grain after returning from the farm. Now that we can transport it back before the river freezes, my subordinates are relieved."

Princess Pingyang looked up at the snowflakes still falling outside the house, and said: "There is so much snow in the pass, I don't know how it is outside the pass? The outside of the pass has always been colder than the inside of the pass. I think the snow should be heavier. Our army should be ready for the Turks to go south."

According to historical records, the Turkic famine occurred only after the snow disaster.It is better for Her Royal Highness to make her own judgment based on the weather than for Xue Lang to be a magic stick, otherwise he would still have a headache to imply that the Turks were suffering from a snow disaster.

Xue Lang said solemnly: "Hunger will make people crazy! Even if we know that our army has powerful weapons to defend the pass, driven by hunger, I am afraid that someone will knock on the pass. If you don't want to starve to death, you can only attack fiercely. If you break through Weize Pass, Turkic will be able to If you drive straight in, you will definitely be starved to death than if you fight hard and maybe you can break through the level, the latter must be more hopeful. Please pay attention to it, Your Highness!"

Princess Pingyang said solemnly: "I know it well!"
