Chapter 41: Winter

Xia He's clothes are flowing cloud blue, the clothes are embroidered with pink begonias, the embroidery is superb, the begonias are lifelike, as if you can smell the fragrance of flowers when you get close.

The material is also good material.

No matter how rich Bifu is, he will not match the maids in the house with such good clothes.

"This dress was given to you by the eldest lady?" Chunhua didn't pay attention to what Xia He said, and asked thoughtlessly.

"yes." Xia He stroked his sleeve. Then she wanted to put her hand down, but she didn't say anything, but she couldn't be easily changed by Chunhua.

Chunhua took Xia He's hand and rolled up Xia He's sleeve.

Xia He's skin is clear and her wrists are slender with a blue jade bracelet.

"Your eldest lady is really generous to you. I thought that this garment, worth more than fifty taels, was already a generous gift, but look at this. Chunhua chuckled, "I'm afraid I won't be able to change all my net worth." ”

Jade has always been more expensive than gold and silver. Chunhua saw a pair of earrings in the Yu family's gold and silver building, and the pendant was so green, as big as a soybean.

Chunhua looked good-looking, and asked the price, seventy taels and a pair.

The emperor of this dynasty loves elegant things, jade is a gentleman's thing, naturally it is elegant, and the price is also rising.

"I thought I would be able to make a good life for my family now. But I don't know, it turns out that you can't look down on this good day at all. Chunhua said.

Xia He slapped the table: "When you say this, are you saying that I am greedy for vanity?" ”

"Watch out for the bracelet." Chunhua said, "I didn't say that, I was just blaming myself." It's my eldest sister who doesn't take responsibility. ”

"I hate you like this!" Xia He suddenly became angry, his momentum rose, and he suddenly frightened Chunhua.

"Do you think that you are the only one in the family, me, a few younger sisters, and even my mother and grandmother, we can only rely on you to live. We have to listen to you, right? Xia He said.

"I've had enough of you! Yes, I like clothes and jewelry, I like to be served, I like to get what I want, can't I? Do you have to do what you want, marry an honest man, and live a boring life?! ”

Chunhua felt that what Xia He said was wrong, but she didn't say anything to refute her for a while, so she only said coldly: "You just want to marry an honest man, and an honest man may not be able to look down on you." ”

Xia He rarely had the upper hand over Chunhua, and he didn't care about Chunhua's words, so he sat down again.

"How you are, I've never cared about it. I beg you to leave me alone. In the future, if I do, I will come to you. If I am depressed in the future, you don't need to take care of me. Xia He said.

Xia He's idea, Chunhua can't do it.

"Whatever you want. However, you should tell your mother about going to Sioux City. Chunhua walked to the door and stopped.

Xia He walked to her side, and Chunhua shook Xia He's hand: "You take care outside." ”

……………………

Where the enemy is, there is still no eyebrow, but the army has already lost many soldiers.

Those who fled on the way, those who were sick.

Most of the rest have adapted to life in the army.

Late at night, Ge Dongdong found a pond with no one and took a bath indiscriminately, grinning in the cold.

I can bear it now, but what can I do in winter. Do you really want to bathe in the tent with those men?

On weekdays, Ge Dongdong has endured enough of their meat talk, and they still have to touch it when they are fine, saying that they want to compare the size of that thing. Ge Dongdong's strength is great, and they don't need to be strong.

Just taking a bath in the tent, how can this kind of thing be avoided?

"Ge Dong?" Ding Yi's voice came.

"Don't come here, I'm almost ready!" Ge Dongdong replied quickly, and the movements in his hands were faster.

As soon as Ding arrived at the pond, Ge Dongdong was already wearing his belt.

"Haha." Ding Yi smiled a few times, "I knew you were here." Poor and clean! ”

"What's the matter with me? I have to train tomorrow, and the new commander is ruthless, and he won't go back to sleep! Ge Dongdong said.

"Hehe, I'm here to deliver something good for you."

Two white steamed buns. Ding Yi took it out as if offering a treasure.

The day before yesterday, the recruit battalion repelled a small group of bandits, gave them a half-day off, and cooked a good meal.

Although the bandits of the hundred also took the lives of dozens of soldiers.

"I don't like to eat this thing, you eat it for me." Ding Yi said.

In the new camp, Ding and Ge Dongdong were separated, but Ding Yihui often brought food over.

"I've had a good dinner, and now I don't have a stomach." Ge Dongdong took a steamed bun, "You one, I have one." ”

If they all refuse, Ding must not be happy.

The two sat by the river, not a big steamed bun, but they ate it for a long time.

There are not many days left like this.

……………………

Autumn is pitifully short. Especially when the Ge family has no land, they don't have to go to the field to collect grain, and the autumn passes faster.

The first snow came on the first day of November.

A little snow was falling.

There are already two pots of charcoal fire in Granny Ge's house.

After the Ge family had a small fortune, Mrs. Ge's old relatives and friends also came to the door to get close.

Old Lady Ge is also happy to have someone to speak.

"We're pretty good here." Grandma Lu sighed.

It turned out to be an old woman from a poor family who started the conversation and said that this year was not easy.

The rest of the people began to say, what harvest is small, and what young people have been pulled away.

"They said they were in the north, but this year they didn't even have any food. This year, it was cold and early, and I am afraid that I will starve to death, and many people will freeze to death. ”

The crowd sighed a few words and dispersed. When the snow is heavy, it will be difficult to go home.

I'm getting older, and it's not good to go out and walk around often in winter, so today's gathering is probably the last time we get together this year.

The mother-in-law of the Ge family packed up some old cotton jackets from the past and distributed them to a few families who were really poor.

Those people also left after a thousand thanks.

The grandmother of the Lu family has not moved.

"Why, you want to stay for dinner." The mother-in-law of the Ge family did not have a good airway.

"Su Yun said, I have a pair of dishes and chopsticks at home today." Grandma Lu said.

"You've been eating at my house for days. What's the matter, your Lu family lacks this bit of food? ”

Grandma Lu smiled: "You don't know what I lack?" ”

The door opened.

Autumn leaves poked her head out: "Grandma, Grandma Lu, it's time to eat." ”

The food was brought to the mother-in-law of the Ge family.

The mother-in-law of the Ge family has a big room, and there is still room for one more table.

Several members of the Ge family ate in the Ge family's mother-in-law's house.

Chunhua and Erya did not come back.

It may be that the store is also busy, since the quarrel with Chen Suyun, there are few people who eat at home, and they all eat in the store and then come back.

Moreover, Chunhua spent a lot of money to buy a carriage and hired Lu Hu to be a groom. On the way back, safety is also guaranteed.
