062 【First Snow】
Although I don't plan to let Mu Qingxuan become an official in the future, knowledge still has to be learned, and in this closed era, books are the treasure with the most knowledge.
In addition to the national chronicles, there are also geography, travelogues, biographies, etc., as well as a military book.
Guozhi, to understand the development and situation of the country, to be in Tianzhao, to understand Tianzhao is a must, these books are all read by Mu Qingqiu himself for the time being.
Geography, can understand the east, west, north and south framework layout of Tianzhao Kingdom, there are several states, counties, cities, and pools. With geography as a foreshadowing, the travelogue looks much more immersive.
Biography! Of course, it is a legend, and in the few biographies that Mu Qingqiu bought, some of the protagonists are still alive, and there are also historical figures.
The only book of war was picked up by Mu Qingqiu from the pile of dust, and the shopkeeper in the study almost used it to add fuel to the fire.
The first thing Mu Qingqiu read was this book of war, of course, this book of war is not as broad and profound as Sun Tzu's Art of War, but its content is all actual combat experience with the characteristics of the times, and some eye-catching things are still worth absorbing.
Mu Qingqiu took these books as storybooks and told them to Mu Qingqiu.
Every time I finish telling a story, I will pick up a few words from the story and teach Mu Qingxuan to write, Mu Qingxuan is unsteady in holding the pen, writing horizontally and vertically, but very serious, sitting upright, decent.
In the bedroom, there is a set of suitably sized cabinets, which are used to store out-of-season clothes and clothes such as seasonal large items or coats that need to be hung up, but now they are basically empty.
In the corner of the house, in the open space against the wall, there is a large wooden bucket for bathing.
The stove in the new kitchen is a suction stove, and the large air suction outlet can be burned without blowing fire, which is very convenient for cooking.
There is also an earthen oven near the door, this earthen oven is larger than the old kitchen, and the earthen oven in the old kitchen is still in use, and the two are used together, and the baking is much faster.
On the day the house was built, Mu Qingxuan was about to live in a new house, but was stopped by Mu Qingqiu. She saved the scraps of wood and wood chips left over from the carpenter's work, swept a basket and arched it into the kang chamber, lit a fire to the kang, and added enough charcoal to the stove for three days before moving into the new house with her brother.
On the night of moving into the new house, Mu Qingqiu had a dream.
She dreamed that she had arrived in a place full of white, holy heaven, and there was a sense of clarity in the whiteness of her eyes.
Mu Qingqiu walked towards the light, obviously close at hand, but when he walked, it seemed as far away as the edge of the sky.
Suddenly, a warm wind blew straight through the door, and Mu Qingqiu opened his eyes coldly, and saw the small face enlarged in front of him.
"Sister, sister, it's snowing, look, it's snowing......" is Mu Qingxuan, yesterday when he moved into the new house, the little guy was happy and didn't sleep for half the night, but he didn't expect to get up early in the morning and still have more energy.
Mu Qingqiu smiled and rubbed Mu Qingqiu's little head, and looked out of the window that the little guy pushed open, and his eyes were snow-white, thickly covering the whole world, and the hearts of those who watched it were brightened.
It was snowing, Mu Qingqiu immediately opened the wooden box of the kang head, took out the thick cotton clothes that had been prepared a long time ago, dressed neatly, and finished one person with a mink fur scarf, one person with a pair of rabbit fur ear hangs, warm and fluffy very good-looking.
Mu Qingxuan's gloves are sewn on the sleeves of the cotton coat, which can be lifted from the palm of the hand, and the little hand can be stretched out when opened, and the whole little hand can be wrapped when covered, this glove borrows the creativity of the previous life. The little guy likes it very much, and when he first wears it, he can play with his little hands for a long time.
The mink and rabbit fur were all beaten by Mu Qingqiu himself, and he sent them to the fur shop in the town, and gave money to process them, as they were worn in the cold today.
"Sister, it's so warm." Mu Qingxuan's eyes were bright, and the child was easily satisfied, and he had forgotten how uncomfortable it was when his sister and brother were so cold that they couldn't sleep in the previous winter.
Half a foot of snow in the yard looked like it had fallen overnight.
I didn't expect the first snow this winter to be so big, thinking of the new house, Mu Qingqiu smiled very happily, about seven or eight days ago, the weather was colder than a day, but fortunately, it was not below zero, and the house was still built.
It was precisely because of the cold that the craftsmen had accelerated their progress, otherwise the snow might have blocked the house, and their siblings would not be able to live in the new house.
Seeing the excitement of the first snow, the sister and brother couldn't even take care of breakfast, and they were busy running around the yard rolling snowballs, rolling snowballs and building snowmen, and waiting for a white and fat snowman to take shape, it was already more than half an hour later.
I found a carrot as my nose, and I took a pair of walnuts as my eyes, although my eyes were smaller, they were also cute.
Mu Qingqiu was very satisfied with the masterpiece of the two sisters and brothers, Mu Qingqiu, just by looking at him jumping around the snowman, he knew that the little guy was so happy.
When Luo came to knock on the door, Mu Qingqiu suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten something today!
Looking at Mu Qingqiu, Mu Qingqiu smiled a little helplessly, and even forgot to eat when he played. It's so good, only when you are usually full, you won't feel the occasional break!
When the door was opened, Roche was carrying a basket, and the basket cover was still steaming, and it looked like it was food.
Mu Qingqiu's eyes lit up, and he rushed over, grabbed Luo's arm, and said with a smile: "Auntie, Qiu'er loves you to death, she is hungry, and the food is delivered, is Auntie an unknown prophet?" As he spoke, he reached out and lifted the cover on Roche's basket, revealing the food inside.
It was an oil cake, a large piece of gold, two pairs of pleats stacked and placed in a bowl, although there was only one, but the bowl was full, and the weight was worth three or four baked cakes.
Since Mu Qingxuan went to Mu's house with her sister last time, she has become much more lively and bold, and her life is gradually getting better, and the playfulness that the little guy should have has also started.
At this time, he followed suit, followed by running over to hug his legs, the basket that Luo was carrying in the crook of his arm was a little high, he couldn't see it, he was in a hurry to pull Luo Zhi's arm, and shouted anxiously: "Auntie, hungry, hungry, I want to eat." ”
Luo was amused by the appearance of Mu Qingqiu's sister and brother, and at first he took care of the two children because of Mu Chengyi's kindness and pity for the two children, but now he likes it from the bottom of his heart.
Not only does she like it, but many times she thinks that if she has two children who are so sensible, she will be willing to eat with two more mouths!
Think about it at the beginning, when Mu Qingqiu's sister and brother were just kicked out by the Mu family, they dug and ate wild vegetables all day long. Looking at the present, the bright new house is lived, the new jacket made of cotton is worn, and even the fur scarf ear hooks worn by the rich and noble are worn.
Others may not know, but Luo Shi understands in his heart that the qiē that Mu Qingqiu has now is all earned by the girl herself!
Such a young child is really admirable.
The situation at home has improved, she has eaten a full meal, her husband Lin Fuyi has tasted and admired, Mu Qingqiu has the demeanor of her father Mu Chengyi, and she is happy and even looks much better.
Looking back on the past, it seems that a long time has passed, and it has only been more than a month when you calculate it carefully, which is really like a lifetime.
