"Look, the family's carriage is coming." Caixia said suddenly. Li Xin didn't look at it either, Caixia is a steady person, so naturally she said that it was really here.

Caiyun helped Li Xin get out of the carriage and watched Wenbo and their carriage slowly approach. In fact, it may not be so easy to identify as the carriage, but because Ling Ziye is in front of the team, and Wen Hao is also riding a horse, so it is naturally clear at a glance.

Seeing Li Xin, Wen Hao hurriedly got off the horse. At a young age, the movements are very neat.

"Eldest sister, are you here early?" Wen Hao looked at Li Xin with a smile.

"No, I just arrived." Li Xin re-tied Wen Hao's cloak, "It's still a little cold at this time, you still don't want to ride a horse, it's nothing for such a short distance, but it's not good for the cold wind to blow too much." Let's get in the carriage! If you feel bored, wait until it's warm up before riding! ”

"Well, I know, eldest sister, don't worry!" Wen Hao suddenly hugged Li Xin.

Li Xin patted him on the back, "Be careful along the way, after returning home, if there is anything you can't solve, you can go to the Zheng family, or go to Sister Pei Lan for help." Now Guxian Cheng is already the magistrate of Nanbai County, you must know to protect yourself. ”

"Eldest sister, don't worry too much about us, I'll take care of my younger siblings." Wenbo said with a smile. "But the eldest sister should take care."

"Hmm." Li Xin nodded. After another goodbye, Wenbo took his younger brothers and sisters into the carriage. The guards also got on their horses, and this time they brought a lot of people with them. Li Xin finally felt a little relieved.

Among them, there are several guards arranged by her cousin, and the Ling family's guard kung fu is still good, so she can not worry so much. In fact, there may not be any danger along the way. has always been an official road, and Wenbo is just an ordinary pedestrian, not a caravan, and it stands to reason that no thieves will take risks.

It's just that she still doesn't feel so relieved, mainly because they are still young, and she always feels that they are not capable of protecting themselves.

"Sister, go back! We're leaving. Wenbo waved at Li Xin.

"Goodbye." Li Xin also waved his hand.

Seeing the carriage go away, Li Xin was still stunned. Ling Ziye gently patted her shoulder. "Let's go back! They'll be safe, and you don't have to worry too much. It's that they have returned home, and there is also the Ling family's shop over there. I have already explained to the shopkeeper, and I have also told Wenbo. If something really happens, the people of the Ling family will come forward to help them. ”

"It's always my cousin who cares about our family."

"What does the family say, you are my aunt's child. In my eyes, she is my own sister. Ling Ziye smiled. personally helped Li Xin into the carriage. "As long as you're doing well! I should have been careful. We are a family, don't think about anything, maybe one day! The Ling family needs your help! ”

"Thank you, cousin."

"Silly girl. I'll send you back. Ling Ziye flew on his horse.

"No, there are guards who will protect me. I'm afraid my cousin is not idle, so let's deal with your own affairs earlier! ”

"It's not far, I'll send you back!" Ling Ziye waved his whip as he spoke.

Looking at Ling Ziye's upright figure, Li Xin smiled. In fact, her cousin has always been very good to her, and she also remembers this heart. As long as his cousin needs her help in the future, she will definitely do it with great effort. He always thinks about her in everything. He thought about everything clearly for her.

Such a man! Speaking of the cousin Yushu in the wind, he is in his prime, there should be many people who like him! I don't know why he doesn't like anyone anymore, does he like men?

It seems impossible! He doesn't have a roommate. She really hopes that her cousin can have a good marriage and be happy for the rest of her life.

returned to the corner gate outside the East Garden, Li Xin invited Ling Ziye to come in and sit, he was originally a relative, and there was no reason not to go in and sit. When she entered the house, she found that Yin Yuling was also there, and Yin Yuling was a little embarrassed when she saw that the people who entered the house and Ling Ziye. Although I was looking forward to meeting, it was still a little awkward to meet like this.

"Yuling, you're here! I went to send them off, and my cousin also went, so I invited my cousin to come and sit down. Li Xin said with a smile, and asked the maids to make tea and take melons and fruit snacks.

"Brother Ziye, sit down!" Yin Yuling said with a smile.

The three of them also sat down, and when Li Xin spoke, Yin Yuling and Ling Ziye slowly became less awkward. In fact, they are two people who get along very well! Gradually, I felt like I was feeling it before.

"By the way, I came to my sister-in-law this time because I had something to give to my sister-in-law." Yin Yuling smiled and opened the box she brought. Li Xin looked at the inside of the box, but it was white velvet cotton, which looked very warm and soft, and she took it in her hand and played with it.

In the past, she was looking forward to seeing cotton, after all, it was a good thing!

It's just that she hasn't had a chance, and she doesn't know much about people who go to sea, so it's really not good to rashly find someone to bring things. There were more and more things later, but I slowly forgot about it.

Now that he saw it so suddenly, Li Xin was really surprised. This is the way things are in the world, maybe when you deliberately look for it, you can't find it when you step on the iron shoes, but when it's time to see it, it takes no effort to get it.

"This is a cotton ball, which was returned from the border by Uncle Huang a few years ago, and gave me some, and I forgot about it when I put it in the box. Because I have been rummaging through the previous things for the past two days, I turned them out, and it looks like they are still intact, so I will play with my sister-in-law! I heard that the locals also use it to make quilts and fill pillows! But Uncle Huang didn't bring it back, and I didn't try it. ”

"Uncle Huang? Are you talking about King Xiang? Li Xin asked.

"Yes! It's Uncle Xiaohuang! Uncle Huang always went on expeditions in previous years, and occasionally came back with some border things. ”

"Did he mention that there are more of these things in the local area?"

"Probably not much! It seems that they are all wild, and no one will go out of their way to plant them, so it is impossible to have more. Uncle Huang may think it's fluffy, we girls will like it! Does sister-in-law like it? ”

"I like it." A bright smile bloomed on Li Xin's face. I didn't expect to get cotton under such circumstances! It's just that these cotton have been left for a few years, and the seeds should not sprout. If you really want to grow cotton, you will have to go to the border to collect seeds.

"Since my sister-in-law likes it, let's keep it and play! I still have a few things to do. After Yin Yuling finished speaking, she stood up first and left.

Li Xin personally sent Yin Yuling out, and when he came back, he saw Ling Ziye playing with cotton. "It's really soft and warm, so if it's really made into a quilt or filled with pillows, it should still be very good." Ling Ziye said with a smile.

"My cousin really thinks right, it is indeed very suitable to make a quilt, but it is a little hard to fill the pillow, so it is not as good as Panzhihua. When Panzhihua's pillow is gently patted, the pillow that has been pressed a little solid will swell up again. However, it is very suitable to make quilts, although it may not be able to compare with silk, but if you plant cotton on an acre of land, how much can you harvest! If you plant an acre of mulberry trees to raise silkworms, you can't actually raise much. ”

"How do you know? Have you seen this before? ”

"I haven't seen it, but I've heard of it. It is Yueting's father-in-law, who once went to sea and brought back the cotton cloth from overseas, and I sent it to the Ling family again, cousin, do you remember? It is from this cotton that the cotton cloth is woven. The yield of cotton is very large, and if it is planted in a large area, people throughout the country will no longer have to be afraid of the cold in the future. ”

"Cotton?" Ling Ziye thought about it carefully, "I remembered, there was indeed such a thing, but I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. The cotton cloth is really good, and unlike the satin, the touch is more unique! If it's as you say, it's a good thing. "That's a bit of interest.

The two talked carefully, in his previous life, Li Xin knew cotton very well, so he naturally said that he was the first to speak. also talked about the yield of cotton she had seen, and Ling Ziye was very happy.

In fact, she is also very happy, it is really a unique feeling to see cotton! I haven't touched it for so many years, but she actually misses it very much. I miss cotton, although silk is good, but she still prefers cotton in her heart. Cotton can also be woven into a variety of exquisite fabrics!

In fact, she still feels that cotton cloth is the most comfortable. Linen is too coarse, and satin is too smooth, and it is still very uncomfortable to wear as a close-fitting garment. However, the cotton cloth given by the Zheng family has long been used up by now, and there has been no place to buy it.

"If that's good, you really should look for seeds." Ling Ziye said.

"Cousin is going to have someone look for seeds?" Li Xin's face was excited.

"But I don't know what the cotton tree looks like! This is what it looks like when it blooms, but it would be hard to find when it doesn't! ”

"This is not a flower! Cotton is like a climbing flower, and flowering is not like this. This is when the fruit is bore fruit, and then the fruit explodes. Li Xin said with a grin. Look at the seeds in this, but after a long time, they should be useless. ”

"But I'm afraid it's useless to find the tree, I still want seeds. It's such a long way that you can't bring it back even if you find a tree. It seems that it is only appropriate to wait for the seeds to be ripe. ”

"I can't help with this, so my cousin has to arrange it himself. But! If there is any problem with planting, I can answer it. I know what to grow crops in. (To be continued......)
