Hide ice in winter, take ice in summer, some nobles will make their own cellars to hide ice, Chu Ying doesn't know if there will be a summer market to buy it, but it should be very expensive, not something that ordinary people can hope for.

"It must have been hard. I didn't go out much this winter. ”

"I know, you are already weak, it is better to go out less, and you have to take medicine if you have a cold, this is the caramel I bought for you, you can eat some when you take medicine, then it will not be too bitter." Chu Ying took a few pieces of **white sugar wrapped in paper by Wang Yuyuan.

"Thank you so much." Wang Qiyuan looked at Chu Ying's happy appearance, and finally he didn't work for so long in vain, although there was some silver money at home, Wang Qiyuan wanted to use his own money to buy things for Chu Ying, and he touched the silver bracelet in his pocket and didn't know how to speak.

"March 3rd, are you going to play at the lake? You're too young to go, so it's okay if you don't go and have a look. Chu Ying knew that this March 3 was Valentine's Day in ancient times, and it was a festival for young men and women to contact and date, and this ancient woman would be punished if she didn't get married after 17, but she didn't know how old the threshold of the older leftover women here was, and she didn't know what the specific criminal law was.

"Okay, I'll go when I have time, I don't know how to play, if I go, I'll have to trouble you to take me there." Chu Ying put the sugar in the kitchen and put it away, the starch sugar asked for 30 wen a pound last time, and these sugars are still very valuable.

"Okay, you slowly recuperate, if you have something, you can find me, and follow the rumor." Chu Ying sent Wang Qiyuan away, and then decocted the medicine for the night.

Chu Ying really didn't want to drink even a sip of Chinese medicine anymore, she really wanted to drink and vomit, but there was no way, she had to take advantage of the early spring to take care of her body, and she had to be busy with things when spring started.

Chu Ying pinched her nose and drank all the medicine, and ate a little bit of broken sugar knocked down, if she didn't have this sugar, she didn't know how to stick to it. Although I know that the medicine is bitter, it still takes a lot of effort to actually drink it.

Chu Ying asked Aunt Wang to borrow a hoe and a rake in the past few days, or she was afraid that she would not be able to borrow it in a few days of spring ploughing, so Chu Ying turned over the soil in the open space in the yard, because it was not a lot, Chu Ying rejected Wang Yuyuan's kindness, after all, she still had to move more.

Chu Ying put a few furrows out of the cultivated land, and did all the preparations, so that he could sow seeds and would not panic, Chu Ying removed the grass on the vegetable field, and the hard-working farmers could not tolerate a single grass in their eyes, they could only be regarded as junior farmers, and they could only use diligence to make up for it.

Chu Ying also hoeed the wheat field to maintain soil moisture, except for overwintering weeds, because the weather was still relatively cold, Chu Ying did not water, afraid that the cold watering water would make the soil freeze and compact.

The yard was almost done, Chu Ying slowly made the adobe bricks, the shed built before was already full of adobe bricks, Chu Ying went to the woods behind to see 4 small trees, although they were small trees, they were still as thick as their thighs, but the thighs of their own children's body were not very thick.

Chu Ying dug a deep pit in the ground, then buried the 4 tree trunks in it, stepped on it with her feet, and then measured the distance between the two trunks, cut some at the same height on the trunk, and then slowly bent the trunk, and the other three trunks did the same.

Then put the 4 curved trunks on top of each other, and put one end on the other to the bent place, so that without ropes, a single trunk can build a wooden frame by itself, and Chu Ying put branches on it and spread some reeds on it, so that you can continue to put adobe bricks underneath.

This method is relatively fast, but it is not as strong as the previous method to build a house, but I only do it to shade the adobe bricks from the rain, which is not too good, and the reeds on it can also be used as a sundeck to dry things.

Chu Ying soaked the ramie seeds in water for a night and then took them out and put them in the wet mud, just like Qin Zhong said, step by step, he had never done it before, he could only listen to Qin Zhong, and after repeatedly confirming the correctness of his operation, he sowed the ramie seeds, and then covered the soil with branches.

Chu Ying looked at the vegetable field at home only green onions, ginger and garlic, mustard greens and leeks, there was really nothing to choose, now that she could grow a lot of vegetables in the spring, she could go to Qin Zhong to see if there was anything to plant.

But a few days later, it rained in the spring, and he could only try to make a raincoat with straw at home, these straws were used by Wang Jiyuan to mend the roof after the last autumn harvest, and there were a lot of Chu Ying's words, Chu Ying hung the straw on a rope one by one, and when enough straw was hung, Chu Ying tied the rope to his shoulder, and looked at the part of his shoulder that was covered, but the straw on his back was scattered.

Chu Ying took it off and fixed the straw below with a rope, and then added straw into it, so that tying a section and adding straw can make the raincoat tighter, and it can also make the raincoat bigger from top to bottom, Chu Ying made the straw raincoat to the ankles, and when it was tied, it felt very heavy, but as long as it could keep out the rain, it would be fine.

Chu Ying first made a bottomless conical shape with a reed knot, put it on the head to see the right size, and then added straw to the outside of the straw hat, and when it was done, there was only one word to describe it, that is, ugly, Chu Ying stuffed the straw more neatly, and wrapped it with a cloth strip at the brim of the hat, so that it would not look hairy.

When the rain hat and raincoat were ready, Chu Ying put it on, and then dragged the wooden slippers to the house, and walked around in the rain for a while before returning to the house, looking at the shoulders were still a little wet, Chu Ying reworked again, added more straw, and the wet raincoat would be heavier, Chu Ying went out again to try it to see that it was safer and did not get wet again, so she took off the raincoat and hung it on the beam.

Chu Ying made a few hooks with hardwood, so that you don't have to always try to hang things on the beams, you can directly tie them to the beams with ropes, and then hang S-shaped hooks on the ropes. And some small things, Chu Ying, hung them directly on the shelves made before with hooks.

When the weather clears, Chu Ying went to the back woods to collect the pine resin he scraped, Chu Ying chose adult pine trees, fortunately, most of them are adults, scraping pine resin requires cutting the skin of the pine tree, which will destroy the transmission of pine nutrients, so you should choose an adult.

On the pine tree, a knife on the left and a knife on the right are cut into a V-shape, so that the pine resin will flow along the cut marks to the bottom of the V-shape, Chu Ying uses a long bamboo knot against the pine tree, the upper part of the bamboo is cut off half of the bamboo pieces, and the lower part is a bamboo that is opened, which is convenient for storing the pine resin that flows down.

Chu Ying cut 3 pine trees, took the newly made bamboo knots to replace the bamboo knots filled with pine resin, Chu Ying went home first with the three bamboo knots, feeling the humid air in the woods, thinking that some fungi on the mountain should have grown, and when he was free, he could go to the foot of the mountain to have a look.
