Chapter 67: Winter

From that day on, Hajran's life became busy, reading, writing, riding and shooting a lot. As long as you practice the big characters carefully, you can see the progress, Hajran puts more energy on practicing the characters, and the adult soul strengthens her control, if you want to write, she already has a good look, and the big characters written are already quite good. Mr. Guo is very satisfied with this, and has built yƬ that she can start practicing Xiaokai.

Reading should pay attention to understanding, Manchurian and Mongolian literature, and Sinology are all compulsory subjects, which can torture people enough. In the process of learning, Hajlan found that after crossing over, probably because he became a child, so his memory was much better, and he memorized the poems twice in general, and his impression deepened a lot after reading many books. The trouble is that Manmengwen is full, Hajlan has no advantage at all, and he has learned step by step from scratch.

Riding and archery is a learning project that depends on talent and understanding, and it is not something that can be learned well by practicing hard. Hajlan couldn't help but bow his head and be ashamed when he saw Erruri's riding and archery results, and when he looked at Qi Buchen, he felt that it was really good to have a companion.

At this time, Eruri was already the best among the official boys in Chahar City, but in his own opinion, he felt that his sister was better than him in learning. There are many articles, and my sister can read the general meaning by herself, but he can't understand it until he listens to his husband's explanation, and he is very depressed. So Eruri studied more diligently, and even increased the time to practice calligraphy for a full hour, vowing to surpass his sister and defend his brother's dignity!

Hajlan looked at the little boy Eruri, who studied diligently every day, and admired it in his heart!

Nalan felt sorry for the hard work of his son and daughter, and selected a few maids for the three Eruri brothers and sisters to take care of their daily life, deal with daily chores, and so on.

As the days passed, since the beginning of autumn in Chahar, there has been a strong wind, the leaves are rustling in the wind, and suddenly the fallen leaves are falling, winter is coming, the weather is gradually getting colder, and the wind blowing in the winter night is especially biting.

One night, in a daze, Hajlan felt a little cold, rolled up the quilt on his body, but the coldness still could not be eliminated, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a white light outside the tent. It turned out that it was already dawn! She was startled and was about to get up, but as soon as she left the bed, she couldn't help but shiver.

With a squeak, the door opened, and Mama Geffohe walked in, and when she saw Hajlan getting up, she hurriedly asked the little girl ring with the things behind her to put down her things, and then ordered the finch to go to the closet and take out a thick coat, and said gently: "Gege is up?" ā€

"Why is it so cold?" Hajran asked in a trembling voice.

"Gegechai?" The finch with the thick clothes squeezed his eyes and helped Hajlan change his clothes, "Hint: it's still early, but it's very bright outside." ā€

"It's snowing?" Hajran was pleasantly surprised. Hurriedly dressed, ignoring the shouts behind him, he rushed out of the room.

Sure enough, there was a large expanse of white land outside, and the sky was obviously dark, but it was lined with snow as if it were day. The snow had stopped, and the snow on the ground was half a foot smaller, and it was almost filling the hallway. The small trees in the courtyard were covered with snow, and the branches were pressed low.

Hajlan saw the beautiful snow, and before he could sigh, he sneezed and rushed back to the room. The finch whispered: "Called Gege and didn't listen to Mama, go out, it's cold, right?" I'm so cold this morning that I sneezed six times in a row, it's snowing, you have to be careful of catching a cold, the snow can't melt for a while, and it's not too late to go out to see when you wear a thick one...... Mama, huh?"

Hajlan found out that what Mama Gefhe had asked the little girl to bring in was a charcoal tray, which was already burning at this time: "Why is it burning now, I still have to go to the upper room to eat, and it is not too late to go back to the room to burn again." ā€

Ge Fohe said: "My little aunt, look at yourself, you haven't washed your face and combed your hair, this can take half an hour's effort, and it won't burn at this time, but I'm afraid that you will catch a cold when you turn around." ā€

Mama Gefohe put the charcoal tray, and just as Jing'er brought in a copper pot of water, put it on the charcoal tray and heated it for a while, then poured it into the face tray, brought a towel, and waited with the finch for Hajlan to wash his face.

Hajlan left them to fiddle, but he was thinking about something else. This is the first snow since the beginning of winter, and it seems that next year's harvest will be good. It's just that the snow is so heavy, and the weather is much colder, so you have to think of some ways to warm up this winter, and it is best to be convenient and not bothersome and expensive.

After freshening up and coming to the upper room, Nalan was gathering everyone to command. Let people take out all the big quilts and put them up, the kang has already begun to burn, and they have to distribute the charcoal basins to each room, and let them take out all the big woolen clothes and cotton jackets for later use, and send people to buy more firewood and charcoal.

After everyone listened to the instructions, they all got busy, and Nalan turned his head to see Hajlan, gently took Hajlan's hand, and said, "Hajlan, go to breakfast with Eniang." ā€

In the dining room, breakfast was already on the table, and because it was cold, all the food was hot. Hajlan said goodbye, and after sitting down, he drank a bowl of hot soy milk first. This is something that has only recently appeared in the city, it is made after the soybean harvest, the soybean flavor is very strong, and honey is added, which is much stronger than the thin soy milk mixed with water that is drunk in modern times, this is a healthy food!

Nalan also drank a bowl, took the wowotou and broke it into a few pieces, added it to the Erluli bowl, turned his head to Qi Shi and said: "I just asked someone to take out your pair of cowhide boots, as well as the sheepskin coat, and asked people to find a sturdy oil-paper umbrella, and also explained that a stove was put in the car. ā€

Qi Shi nodded: "You should also be careful at home, burn the stove in the house for heating, and remember to open the window to ventilate." Nalan answered.

After eating the nest, Erluli interjected: "Mr. has something to do today, no need to go to class, my son goes back to his own room to study, I just practiced calligraphy in the study for a while, the two big windows are open, blowing all over the room with a loud sound, close the window, and sullen, dark, and cold, it is better to warm up in the room." ā€

Qi Shi agreed: "It's okay, the study is colder than other rooms, but I'm afraid that the ink is not good, and it is difficult to write." ā€

Hajranti said: "It's better to let my brother and sister come to the upper room with me, we can read and write in the right room, it won't disturb Eniang, and we can also save a stove." ā€

Qi Shi Nalan clan is called a great good, Qi Buchen nodded again and again, Erluli smiled happily, it is better to have someone to accompany than to be alone, not to mention that the upper room is the warmest place in the whole house.
