Chapter 141: Heavy Snow Suppression

Fang Jing, who was bored every day, always wanted to go out and find something to do, but the wind and snow outside made Fang Jing dispel this idea, so she had to nest in the stove or bamboo house to bake the fire, and the whole family gathered together, throwing a small sweet potato or small potato into the fire from time to time, which is also the favorite thing for little dolls to do.

"Cousin, give it to you." Xiao Zhi made a potato and handed it to Fang Jing.

"Xiaozhi, you can eat by yourself, my cousin is too full for breakfast, and he can't eat it." Fang Jing looked at the small potatoes handed over by Xiao Zhi, and the little hands were all black.

On a snowy day, it can only be like now, the family sits together, and can also experience the laughter and laughter of the family, the little dolls are happy at this time, and the adults are also happy, but Fang Jing is not interested.

It's not that Fang Jing doesn't like this feeling, it's not that Fang Jing is starting to get tired of this home, and Fang Jing can't stay at this time, Fang Jing prefers to bask in the sun on the recliner instead of sitting around and roasting the fire together like now, although the form is similar, but for Fang Jing, there is a big difference.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Fang Yuan looked absent-minded, pulled Fang Jing's hand and asked.

"It's okay, my brother just wants to bask in the sun, it hasn't been out of the sun for several days, and it's snowing." Fang Jing had to explain to everyone.

"Jing Wazi, this snow has indeed been falling for several days, and there is no way to do it." Chen Erlin has also had nothing to do in the past two days, only getting some dry straw in the early morning and putting it in the livestock shed for donkeys and horses to eat, and basically staying in the house the rest of the time.

"Little uncle and aunt, there is nothing to do on this snowy day, but I always feel that something is wrong, the snow is strong and the wind is strong, if this goes on like this, I am afraid that this house will be crushed." Fang Jing always felt that the snow was too big, and the roof was prone to snow, which collapsed some houses that were not burdened.

"If this snow really falls like this for a few days, there is a real possibility that the house will collapse, we have to clean it up immediately, otherwise, we will suffer." Chen Erlin remembered his past and nodded in agreement with Fang Jing's statement.

"Then I'll go and clean up the snow on the roof, uncle, you go and inform the village, let everyone clean up the snow on their roofs, you can also go and do a favor, some people don't have anyone." Fang Jing got up and said to Chen Erlin.

Chen Erlin got up and went out to the village house, Fang Jing came to the courtyard, took a long bamboo pole, moved the bamboo ladder to climb up, and began to clear the snow on the roof.

The snow on the roof is indeed very thick, if this is not cleared, Fang Jing is really worried that the bamboo house may be crushed tomorrow, fortunately Fang Jing thinks ahead, otherwise this family will not be able to stay.

Fang Jing's movements were very fast, and the little dolls also wanted to help Fang Jing clean up the snow, but they were all bombarded back into the house by Fang Jing, Fang Jing didn't want the little dolls to freeze on this snowy day, if they had a cold, it would not be easy to get better, otherwise, this cold would come together, and it would be endless, one by one.

In previous years, Fangjia Village had never seen such a heavy snowfall, it had rained for several days, and when he stepped on his feet, he could reach his knees, Fang Jing could think of the northern clan in such a snowy day, and he didn't know if he could survive or not, at least Fang Jing knew that there was never an immortal on a snowy day, even if Fang Jing often froze to death in his previous life, not to mention today's Datang.

Half an hour later, Fang Jing cleaned all the roofs of the house, the snow was still falling, and Fang Jing was about to pile up a snowman, but Fang Jing couldn't care about this, clearing the snow was a big deal.

After cleaning, Fang Jing hurriedly returned to the house and started a fire, his body was a little wet, although Fang Jing didn't feel cold, but after all, he still had to dry his clothes.

The entire Fangjia Village was mobilized, sweeping the snow on their roofs, and everyone was afraid that the heavy snow would collapse their houses, so they really didn't even have a place to live at that time.

In half a day, the roofs of each family were cleared out, and it was also blamed that there was no corresponding ladder in their respective homes, otherwise it would not take half a day, Chen Erlin Hui later told Fang Jing about the situation in the village, but fortunately, Fang Jing reminded in a hurry that at present, there is some damage to the house of a villager, and no greater damage has been caused.

Fang Jing thought to herself whether she should build a brick house, otherwise she would have to be busy in the weather like heavy snow, it would be really tiring enough, Fang Jing didn't know what it took to build a brick house in Datang at this time, but it should be simple to think about it, although you don't understand it, you can also invite some professional people to build it.

"Uncle and uncle, shouldn't our family build a better brick house? In addition to being small, this house is also easy to be crushed by snow, and if something happens, our family will lose a lot. Fang Jing suggested to Chen Erlin and his wife.

"Jing Wazi, it is possible to build a brick house, but if you want to buy bricks from the county, this road is too far, it is not cost-effective, you can only build a stone house, and when the time comes, I will go to the mountains to dig some stones, and it can also be built." Chen Erlin listened to Fang Jing's words, thinking that if he built a brick house or a stone house, then he didn't need to worry about heavy snow.

"Hit the stones? Well, that's okay, but isn't the time too slow, or we can build a brick-burning kiln ourselves, and then invite some knowledgeable people to get it? "Although Fang Jing doesn't know much, he has also seen burning bricks, so it shouldn't be difficult to think about it.

"Jing Wazi, this is not good, the soil in our Fangjia Village is not suitable for burning bricks." Chen Erlin directly rejected Fang Jing's proposal.

"Huh? This dirt can't do it, huh? So what to do? "Fang Jing really didn't know what kind of soil could burn bricks, although he had seen it, but he hadn't learned about it.

"This brick burns to be clay, and the soil in our village doesn't have such soil, so we can only beat some stones now." Chen Erlin told Fang Jing the difference between the soil and the bricks.

Fang Jing was also speechless, there are so many exquisiteness in this brick-burning, Fang Jing thought about whether he would ask the dumb fairy for some books one day, otherwise he would be really illiterate, he didn't understand anything, and he thought that he was a super scientist when he came to this Datang, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even get a brick.

Ancient burning bricks can be said to be the most waste wood, a large amount of coal was used in the Song Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty basically used charcoal as a raw material for fire, burning bricks for heating basically used wood charcoal, which also made a large area of trees cut down in the future Zhenguan year, and coal is also called charcoal, which has not been used in large quantities for the time being.

The heavy snow fell for three days before it began to slow down slowly, Fang Jing didn't know how many people were affected by such heavy snow, let alone how many people were frozen and starved in the wind and snow, but these were not things that Fang Jing needed to consider, Fang Jing only thought that Fangjia Village could live well, and Fang Jing didn't want to be a good person in Datang.

In the following days, the wind and snow finally stopped, and each family began to clean up again, the same is true of Fang Jing's family, large and small families together, the little dolls don't care if they can help, but they can also sweep some snow on the ground.

After clearing the snow in the yard, there were constant water stains in the yard, Fang Jing thought about covering the yard with smooth stones, so that it would not be like this, at least it would snow and rain in the future, and there would be no need to worry about wet shoes.

"Uncle, after a while, I will put some stones and spread them in this courtyard." Fang Jing pointed to a lot of stagnant water in the courtyard and said to Chen Erlin.

"Jing Wazi, this is okay, when the snow melts, I will go up the mountain to fetch some stones." Chen Erlin was also annoyed by the stagnant water, thinking that in the future, the yard would be covered with stones, and it would be better to walk without getting his shoes wet.

At present, there are no rubber shoes, but also no waterproof shoes, in the event of rain and snow, and go out, basically the shoes are all wet, bamboo or wooden umbrellas are available, also called oil paper umbrellas, and there are some silk and linen clothes or straw clothes, and the Zhuang family is basically a straw cloth, and the official family and other families will have a silk linen cloth, at least Fang Jing's family is a straw cloth, which is also a common situation in the Tang Dynasty at present.

Every year, it is the day that the little dolls look forward to the most, of course, Fang Jing is not willing to look forward to it now, Fang Jing remembers that in his previous life, when he was a child, he looked forward to the New Year every year, there were delicious food, new clothes, and New Year's money, these were all things that Fang Jing looked forward to when he was a child.

Early in the morning of the New Year, Chen Erlin and his wife, as well as Fang Jing, had to get up early to prepare for today's food, whether it was eaten by people or livestock, they basically had to be done well.

In the morning, after the village is leading the whole village to worship their ancestors, they are busy after returning to their respective homes, Fang Jing is busy cleaning up the bacon and various ingredients, Chen Erlin is busy cleaning the livestock shed, Zhang Xiaoxia is busy cleaning up the house, and the three older babies also follow to help, only the three little babies hide in front of the stove to burn the fire, which can be regarded as helping Fang Jing cook.

Before breakfast, Fang Jing called Dachu to call Murazheng, Fang Dayong, as well as Qian Shi and Zhong Dahuai to come over for breakfast, which was also Fang Jing's feeling that they should be invited over for breakfast, which could be regarded as a gesture of affection; Qian Shi and Zhong Dahuai had only eaten a bowl of soup cakes at Fang Jing's house, and for the food cooked by Fang Jing's family, they were thinking about Fang Jing's food every day, although the food they ate at the household's house was not bad, but it was more than a little worse than the food they had eaten before.

Breakfast is quite rich, garlic sprouts fried bacon, braised pork ribs, braised pork, potato stewed beef, beans fried eggplant, a fried green vegetables, a plate of salted eggs, everyone is eaten is belly melon round, Qian Shi and Zhong Dahuai really enjoyed the extreme, never ate such a delicious meal, basically did not stop chopsticks at the dinner table, in order to eat more, at this time the two of them have no longer the state when they first came, they are holding their stomachs and panting.

"Jing Wazi's food is really nothing to say, every time I want to come and eat it, but I don't dare to be so thick-skinned." Muramasa also ate too much, looking at the image of the two guards, some deliberately bragged at Fang Jing's cooking level to outsiders.

"Yes, I've been eating at Jing Wazi's house for several months, and the food I eat when I get home is basically unpalatable, but Jing Wazi's food is delicious." Fang Dayong also opened his mouth to praise.

"If you want to eat, come and eat when you have time, although our family is not an official eunuch's family, every day big fish and meat or something, but you can still eat a few bites of meat, this is not the year, you have to eat a few meals, by the way, the village is positive, when will the pigs in the village be killed?" Fang Jing then asked about the pig to the village.

"In two days, when the weather is good, I will ask everyone to kill pigs together, haha, this year is a good year, this pig is almost 150 catties, and every household will be able to eat meat by then." Muramasa was very happy and said with a smile, very satisfied with the current situation.
