Chapter 51: Winter is Coming, Changing the Bed to Kang (Plus Change)

Lin Zhu prepared the vegetable cellar early, so the vegetables in the vegetable field were collected at the cold pass, Dr. Zhang's family did not dig the vegetable cellar, and his storehouse was not suitable for placing cabbage, so his share of cabbage was also stored in Lin Zhu's vegetable cellar. Every three days, Steward Zhang will come to Lin Zhu to take some, at first he felt that his master was also a little aggrieved to eat these cheap cabbage, and he was also a little resentful of Lin Zhu, but when he also tasted the taste of this cabbage, he completely changed his attitude towards Lin Zhu, and set his sights on Lin Zhu's part, if it wasn't for Lin Zhu's close look, maybe he would be snatched away by him one day, that righteous momentum, so that Lin Zhu had a big headache, worthy of being the housekeeper of Dr. Zhang, and his master, all treat themselves as outsiders.

Not only Mrs. Zhang's family, but also the village chief's family, Mrs. Li made the cabbage given by Lin Zhu for the first time, and after the family tasted the first bite, they were all conquered by the taste of this cabbage. The Wang family is in the same situation, he has many families, many men and all of them are pot-bellied men, and they eat fast, and everyone has asked the Guo family to plant more in the second year. So the Guo family, who had the same plan as Aunt Li, went to Lin Zhu together and asked her where she bought the seeds, and they also wanted to buy some back. didn't expect these cabbages to cause such a big commotion, and for a while, Lin Zhu couldn't think of any excuses, and he couldn't expose the space, so he had to tell them that the little cabbage next year would be provided by her, and the two enthusiastic housewives were sent away.

Not only that, Aunt Li also asked Lin Zhu if she wanted to sell such cabbage. It must be higher than the price of those ordinary cabbages, Lin Zhu thought about it, there are not many dishes this year, forget it, and wait for more next year. Aunt Li also thinks it's better to talk about it next year.

After the weather is cold, the types of vegetables are also less, which makes Lin Zhu miss the previous winter greenhouse very much, but it can't be realized here, she heard that some large families have greenhouses that can grow some vegetables in winter, but the cost of the greenhouses is very high, and other idlers can't afford to use it, let alone her.

Lin Zhu also secretly hated his mistake, it would be good to buy more vegetables and put them in the space when the weather was still warm, but after thinking about it, Ruyu would often come to her, and even Doctor Zhang would suddenly appear from time to time, so they found out that it was definitely inappropriate, so Lin Zhu temporarily dispelled this idea.

The weather is getting colder and colder, Lin Zhu rarely goes out, although the house is burned with a carbon basin, but the bed is still cold, and Lin Zhu does not like the carbon basin very much, the ventilation in the house is not good in winter, and the carbon basin will always produce some smoke, which is very choking. At this time, Lin Zhu missed the dirt pit she had lived in before, so she asked Aunt Li, only to know that most of the people in Ludao Village used to use soil pits, only her family, the Wang family used to think that the soil pit was very dirty, and in order to show her extraordinary origin and distinctiveness, she abandoned it. Lin Zhu doesn't care about those, she thinks that heating is the most important thing at this stage. So I asked Wang Shudun's family to help with the pankang, because the kitchen is at the back of the east house, just open up and then connect the flue, so that you can not only burn the kang for warmth, but also not afraid that when cooking, the smell of oil smoke will enter the inner room.

Lin Zhu made the kang very long, ordered a quarter of the entire east house, from the east wall to the west wall, it was more than three zhang long, and it was no problem to sleep five or six people side by side, and in order to make this kang strong and durable, Lin Zhu spent a lot of money and asked Wang Shudun to help buy some green bricks, so that the kang was not only durable but also cleaner. Because he spent too much money on the kang, Lin Zhu's wish to make a kang cabinet could not be realized for the time being, so he could only use the old box cage.

After the kang plate is ready, it must be burned for a few days before it can dry thoroughly, and people can't sleep on it if they are a little wet. Taking advantage of this time, Lin Zhu bought mats from the village, because the Baihe River flows through Linjia Village, and there are many reeds growing on the riverside, and many families in the village will cut reeds to weave mats, so Lin Zhu is easy to buy and not expensive. After the kang was dried, Lin Zhu laid out the mat and moved the quilt of the mattress used when he lived in the West Winghouse, the bed in the West House was already very old, so Lin Zhu moved it to the wing room, and the bed where Lin Steward and Wang lived was moved to the West House.

And because Lin Zhu's mattress was too small and a little thin, he made a big bed, which was made by Aunt Li with Ruyu and Youqing sisters, as well as Guo's help, Lin Zhu was very grateful to them, plus Wang Shudun didn't ask for a penny for helping Pan Kang, so Lin Zhu invited them to dinner to express his gratitude. No one who was convinced of Lin Zhu's craftsmanship refused.

After entertaining the two families and sending them away, Lin Zhu couldn't wait to get on the kang, the spacious and warm fire kang was covered with a thick mattress, so that Lin Zhu couldn't help but roll on it several times. Covered with a quilt, I slept happily.

Not long after Lin Zhu set up the kang, the first snow she encountered in this world came. The snow is not very large, and the small snowflakes fall whirling under the cold wind, and then melt into the soil and disappear after a while. Lin Zhu stood outside the door, raising her hand slightly, trying to catch the snowflake, but before she could feel the coolness of the snow, it melted. This is also the first snow that Black Bean encountered, it is not afraid of the cold to play outside the house, jumping around trying to catch the snowflakes with its small claws, but it can't catch anything.

The sky was gray, which also made Lin Zhu's mood a little heavy, and coming to the unfamiliar world always made her a little depressed, and now facing the first snow, she slowly released the pressure in her heart. After a while, her hands and feet were a little stiff, and she called Black Beans and returned to the house. It took a while to recover from the hot kang. At this time, her mood is also a lot better, both come and go, everything in the past has passed, only by grasping the present, can she live a better life. Lin Zhu has always had the psychology of being a little rich, in fact, this is not bad, but she is still far from being rich. "Come on! Come on! Lin Zhu encouraged himself and left his negative emotions behind.

Since Lin Zhu moved the house, Black Beans also moved over, but it is still on the ground, Black Beans grow very quickly, it is already a half-grown dog, Lin Zhu thinks it is very smart, get along for a long time, it can understand some simple meanings of Lin Zhu's words, and with Lin Zhu's "help", it loves to be clean, Lin Zhu also specially prepared a basin for it, and often bathed it. For people, bathing often is very comfortable, but for dogs, it is not so beautiful, but Black Beans has developed a good habit of loving bathing, and it can be seen that Lin Zhu has put a lot of pressure on it. The dog is under the eaves and has to bow its head, which is its inner monologue.
