Dinner is no longer made by Zhang Xiaoxia, Fang Jing is in charge, everyone also knows that if Fang Jing is there, whoever is in charge of the spoon is a blow, it is better to let Fang Jing take the spoon, and the food cooked by Fang Jing is a pleasure to eat.

The antelope I hunted yesterday was pickled by my aunt, but there is not much salt at home, this Datang salt is ridiculously expensive, not that Fang Jing can't afford it, but Fang Jing doesn't like this kind of coarse salt, and it has a bit of bitterness, it is really a little unpalatable.

After dinner, Fang Jing felt that it was time to take a bath for the little babies, the clothes were ready, and it was time to change, and besides, she had washed herself, and she had rolled in the ditch several times, Fang Yuan hadn't completely washed it, but today Fang Yuan's face and hands were very clean, it was estimated that her aunt should have scrubbed her little sister yesterday, otherwise it wouldn't be so clean today.

"Let's go, little babies, brother will take you to the bath, bring your new clothes and shoes, don't fall to the ground." Fang Jing shouted to a group of little dolls, Fang Jing was going to take the group of little beggars to the bottom of the ditch, where there was a small pool the size of a square circle, enough to bathe the little babies.

Carrying a towel made of gray cloth, he also carried his clothes and pants, and carried a basket, ready to wash the changed clothes and bring them back after washing them for a while.

Take the little babies to the edge of the small pool, secretly asked the fairy for a piece of soap and made it in half, handed half to Dachu, let Dachu wash Daying first, stripped his little sister naked, like a piglet, hugged and put it into the water, the pool is not deep, the deepest part is less than one meter, wet the little sister's hair, wash her hair, the little sister looked at the white thing in her brother's hand, but I don't know what it is.

"Brother, it's so fragrant, what is this?" Fang Yuan felt that it was fragrant, maybe he should be able to eat it.

"This is a soap, and I take it for bathing and laundry. Don't move yet, I'll wash your little pig first. "When Fang Jing bathed her little sister, her little sister was always moving around, and she was a little afraid of itching when she thought about it; Fortunately, the weather is summer now, although it is not the hottest time, but it is also able to go down to the river to bathe, a few days ago when I went down to the river to catch fish, Fang Jing felt that the water temperature was no problem, and today I thought about taking a bath and changing clothes for the little babies.

After washing the little sister and then washing Xiaozhi, this description may not be very good, but for the current Fang Jing, the two broken children at the moment, in his eyes, can only be expressed in the most appropriate way, the little broken child who is stripped naked, isn't it like a little pig?

Xiao Zhi was a little embarrassed, her mother washed her when she used to take a bath, and her cousin washed her, but she was embarrassed, and she kept hiding, so she finally helped Xiao Zhi finish washing, change her clothes, and let the three little girls go home first, and she and Da Chu were stripped naked and washed in the small pool.

Fang Jing hadn't really taken a bath for a long time, but now it was comfortable, after lying in the pool and soaking for a while, he started to wash, after washing, he tied up his long hair, and began to apply all the clothes he had changed into soap, and slowly rubbed them, the clothes were dirty, so that Fang Jing wanted to throw them away, this was the third time he had applied soap, it was all dirty like this, and the water in the pool was a small piece of black.

Fang Jing carried the basket with the washed clothes, and hung all the clothes on the fence, the shoes of Daying Xiaozhi were all thrown away, only the little sister's shoes were washed, it was not that Fang Jing wanted to throw them, it was really impossible to wash them, they were all rags, what else to wear, just throw them away to save trouble, Chen Erlin and his wife looked at Fang Jing drying clothes, feeling like a person who has been doing this kind of thing all year round, Fang Da would have gone home long ago after they had eaten and rested, otherwise he would be very curious, why did Fang Jing even do the work done by these women so smoothly.

In the hearts of Chen Erlin and his wife, they don't know how to describe Fang Jing anymore, they feel that they can do anything, maybe this is the child of the poor family, originally bathing and washing the little babies should be done by her aunt, but Fang Jing feels that her cousin and cousin, and everyone is still a child, it doesn't matter, and they are all a family, there are no taboos, Zhang Xiaoxia will follow Fang Jing.

"Little uncle and aunt, see if our family should get a big bucket, you can't go to the ditch and river to take a bath this winter, you can boil some water at home to wash, tomorrow I will go into the mountains to cut a tree and come back, and then make a wooden bucket." Fang Jing put forward her own opinion and wanted to ask her little uncle how he was.

"Jing Wazi, this is okay, my aunt didn't think of it." Zhang Xiaoxia has been making clothes and bedding for the past few days, but she really hasn't paid attention to it.

"Uncle, I'm fine, whoever thinks that it's the same, do it in advance, just to prepare for winter." Fang Jing didn't care.

"By the way, aunt, you have to get some bamboo leaves in this futon when the time comes, otherwise it won't work this winter, you can ask Aunt Xiu when you have time, I don't know much about the specifics." Fang Jing reminded her aunt, afraid that her aunt would not be very clear.

"I said that there is no flocculent here, it turns out that it is made of bamboo leaves, so okay, I have to ask for it." Zhang Xiaoxia responded to Fang Jing.

"Uncle, today I asked the village by the way, if you want to settle down in Fangjia Village, it's okay, but because it's from outside, there is no land to give, what do I mean, it's okay not to grant land, we can open a few acres of land ourselves, or buy a few acres of land, what do you think, uncle?" Although Fang Jing is not good at farming, she knows how to figure it out, mainly because there is no field to plant.

"Jing Wazi, what should I do if I don't give the field? You can't keep hunting, it's dangerous, what if you get hurt, you can't afford to buy a field, or you can open some fields yourself. Chen Erlin was in a hurry, he didn't want to hunt all the time, it was too expensive to buy land, it was not impossible to open up the wasteland, the main reason was that there were not so many people, and it would be slow when the time came, and the output of the newly opened fields was low.

"Uncle, then I have time to open the fields, it is still very fast to open two or three acres of fields, our family does not need so many fields, just open a few acres, and then these fields will only pay a little tax, enough for our family to eat." Fang Jing knows that there are a lot of fields in Fangjia Village, and the yield per mu of rice is only a few dozen catties, one is that the rice seed is not good enough, the other is that the fertility is not enough, and the management is not rooted, one person gives nearly 100 acres of land, although there are nearly 100 acres, half of it is considered good, and compared with Fang Jing's field in his previous life, it is only a little more than half an acre, the planting technology is backward, the output is relatively low, and the taxes are also high, and there is basically not much left for his own family to eat.

For example, Aunt Xiu's family, according to the regulations, should be granted 120 acres of land, Fang Dayong is disabled, 60 acres of land, and the woman is granted 30 acres of land, but the actual Xiu's family is only 40 acres of land, according to the yield of 80 catties per mu, at most no more than 3,200 catties of grain, which also has to pay two stones of Ding tax, and one stone per person has to pay a poll tax. The land tax belongs to Yicang, that is, the spare grain, and the total number of acres is forty acres, and it is necessary to pay nearly two stones.

Ding tax plus poll tax plus land tax, this is going to go to six stones, the poll tax is only an adult poll tax, then the grain tax, Aunt Xiu's family will eventually only have 2,600 catties of rice left, then you have to pay the silk cloth and hemp tax, this is a big head, things are not enough to use money, money is not enough to use food, just like last year, Aunt Xiu's family used nearly ten stone of grain to pay, this is not the last family left 1,600 catties of rice, with the rice rate of this era, the family is less than 1,000 catties of rice, the family of five, how can it be enough to eat, this is still good, It's as good as the village house, like there are no men in the village, or there are few adults in the family, and it's basically impossible to have much left.

Pingli County belongs to Shannan Road, so the rice is only planted for one season, which depends on the day to eat, if God is not happy, let alone drink a bowl of porridge, even the water has to drink.

Fang Jing felt that he would open two or three acres of land, and only pay a little tax at that time, that would be good, regardless of his other tax systems, I didn't grant land, why don't you love it, wait until she is an adult, maybe my uncle will be able to grant land at that time, now, that's it.

"Jing Wazi, that's the only way to do it for now, and when you can give you the field, you can also grow more fields, so that you can also produce more food." Chen Erlin was quite uncomfortable with not granting land, but there was no way to do it now, so he could only wait for later.

"Uncle, aunt, we can also open up some more land, plant some vegetables or something, and when the time comes, we can also sell some vegetables in winter, but there are no donkeys and cows, and it is inconvenient to sell, but it doesn't matter, buy a donkey or cow back then." Fang Jing felt that planting vegetables in greenhouses in winter could earn some copper money, otherwise how could she survive without vegetables in winter, and there would be no wild vegetables to dig in winter.

"Jing Wazi, you can't grow vegetables in winter, and the vegetables you grow in winter will freeze to death." Zhang Xiaoxia listened to Fang Jing say that selling vegetables in winter is basically impossible to achieve, unless it is a god.

"Uncle, you will know when the time comes, you can also grow vegetables in winter, but you have to go to the county seat to buy some green vegetable seeds at that time." Although Fang Jing doesn't know much about growing vegetables in greenhouses, she still knows a little about the knowledge of her previous life, although she doesn't know much, but she still knows the basics, it's nothing more than the temperature, wetland and sunshine, it shouldn't be too difficult.

"By the way, how's the little goat? Not dead, right? Fang Jing came back for so long before she remembered the little antelope, and she didn't know if she was dead or alive.

"Jing Wazi, it's not dead, it's okay, in that bamboo shed, I will go to cut some grass and feed it every day at the beginning of the day." Chen Erlin pointed to the bamboo shed and said to Fang Jing.

"Oh, Dachu, add a bowl of water to it every day, put a little salt for it to drink, otherwise it will be easy to get sick after a long time, and all animals must eat salt, just like us." Fang Jing commanded Da Chu, who was sitting next to her uncle.

"Okay, cousin, I remember." Dachu nodded in response to his cousin's instructions, although Dachu said to his cousin to put some salt, I always felt that it shouldn't be, salt is precious.

"Dachu, don't worry about salt, just buy some when you run out of salt, I still expect this little goat to grow up and change money." Fang Jing didn't think that salt was expensive, mainly because he didn't know much about it, although he bought coarse salt, which had a bit of bitterness, but he had a god to help, so he didn't have much salt.

After everyone chatted for a long time, they all went to sleep, mainly because the mosquitoes began to increase, and everyone couldn't stand it, Fang Jing had burned the knotweed in the bamboo house for a long time, and the mosquitoes had already been smoked away, so they would go into the house to sleep, and they didn't have to worry about mosquito bites.

At dawn the next day, Fang Jing's family got up, and everyone didn't have the habit of eating breakfast, two meals a day, and they worked when they got up, there were no chickens, ducks and cows at home, only a little goat, and a bear two, and Xiong Er who could make noise to eat.

Da Chu is a half-grown child, and he is also the most sensible, after getting up, he went to cut the grass to feed the lamb, and then led Xiong Er to dig bamboo shoots for Xiong Er to eat, although Xiong Er wanted to eat the food cooked by Fang Jing, but he also knew that this would not be the time to eat, so he had to eat some bamboo shoots to pad his stomach first.

Fang Jing took a broken knife and went to the mountains and forests to cut down a tree and came back, peeled the skin, and put it on the edge of the yard to dry, and when it was almost sunburned, it could make a big wooden barrel.
