Chapter 399: Six Years of Zhenguan

The Western Regions is not a good place for people to live, cold in winter, hot in summer, whether it is cold or hot, it is so special, when it is hot, you can make eggs scrambled, and when it is cold, it is splashed into ice, which is also the main reason why there are many countries in the Western Regions, but the population is limited.

The autumn harvest in September, taking advantage of the last bit of sunshine in October, finished harvesting the cotton, and it was only by the end of October that it had begun to snow.

Fortunately, enough coal was prepared in the past few months, and honeycomb coal was made safe enough for the winter, of course, this enough refers to the Tang Dynasty belonging land that was just changed to Xiyu Road, Gaochang County, and Xijile County by Li Shimin, as for Yanqi and Qiuzi, just provide a part of it to the royal family, anyway, their people don't have a fire kang, as for the people, those who help them go on the expedition, those who farm, and those who work, all of them are given benefits, a few woolen clothes, thin cotton clothes, although they are all defective, but they are much better than their original, for this Feng Daiwen, Li Ke and Li Tai have gained a lot of prestige again.

Feng Daiwen, in the name of Princess Guang'an of the Tang Dynasty, distributed winter benefits to the working people, a bag of salt, a bag of kelp, and a can of canned fruit, which not only made the people of Gaochang quickly return to their hearts, but also thought that this was a return to the roots of the fallen leaves and returned to the motherland, but also made the people of the other two countries who came to work envious. For even the captives they bought were rewarded. Compared with their own country, it is simply a world of difference, and Datang's taxes, benefits, etc. are slowly spreading through these people.

The snow is falling, the white expanse, although the snow scene is good, but no one is in the mood to watch, going out can sink the adults into half of it, and after the heavy snowfall, they are busy cleaning the snow on the roof.

Fortunately, the houses are now all made of bricks and will not be crushed, but the snow on the roof must be removed every day.

Since the fight against the Eastern Turks a few years ago, skis have been passed out from the Tang Army, which is simple to make and quick to learn, whether it is used for travel or play, it is very good, so few people will not use it, which at least allows Feng Daiwen's people to travel.

More than 10 counties in Gaochang have all arranged people to check whether anyone has been affected by the disaster, and it is convenient to rescue in time, after all, most of them are Han people, and their descendants, and it is always good to die less.

There is a coal stove in the greenhouse, and there is finally a harvest, which is an incredible thing in the eyes of the original people in the Western Regions, the only pity is that it cannot be transported out to sell, the snow road, the transportation is difficult, and the cost is too high, which makes the soldiers feast, the easiest to preserve, and the easiest to plant, the best yield of radish, cabbage and kelp, stew on a big pot of yam vermicelli, yak meat although small pieces, but full of oil and gas, put a little ginger onion, mustard greens, everyone is holding a porcelain bowl with a large head, around the stove, eating sweaty.

Feng Daiwen was also accompanying Guang'an to eat hot pot in the house, and the only fly in the ointment was that there were two more light bulbs.

Li Tai took Li Ke and came to smell the fragrance, there was nothing to do in winter, and the two knew that Feng Daiwen liked to make something delicious, because they were in Guang'an, and they even changed their tricks to make delicious food, so as not to have a bad appetite for a few women far from home.

So, as a matter of course, Li Tai and the two lived in to eat and drink, and took care of the eldest sister in the name of beauty, this sentence was said justifiably, but fortunately, Li Ke was relatively thin-skinned and blushed.

"Brother-in-law, the snow in the Western Regions is too heavy in winter!" Li Tai looked out of the glass window and said with a frown.

If you only listen to the talk, you think he is worried about the country and the people, but unfortunately the chopsticks in his hand are still fishing for meat from the pot.

A piece of yak meat is soaked in the hot pot, put it in the mouth, let out a comfortable moan, touch the bulging belly, and wonder whether to continue to eat something.

"Forget it, no one is to be greedy for the desires of the tongue." Li Tai put down his chopsticks with a bitter face and comforted himself.

"Poof!" Feng Daiwen had a mouthful of white water in his mouth and sprayed it directly to the side, he had never seen such a shameless person before, he was simply amused by him, he ate the most, and he actually had the face to say this.

"You...... You...... It's really shameless and invincible! Feng Daiwen nodded Li Tai with his hand, waited for the breath to go down, and said angrily.

"Look at you stingy, it's okay for the fourth brother to eat more if he likes to eat, it's not enough for the cook to do it." Guang'an looked at the fleshy Li Tai and said with a smile.

"Giggles! Cluck! Yaya and Aomei couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

Originally, the two of them were not qualified to eat at the same table with them, but they had a lot of relationships and knew each other very well, so no one cared about them.

"If you don't eat it, you don't eat it, you stay in the house every day, and it will at least grow a lot this winter." Li Tai looked at the meat in the pot, forcibly turned his head away, and waved his hand again and again.

"Hehe, the snow here will not melt until at least March, for such a long time, in order to prevent you from growing too fat and affecting your body, I decided to help you exercise." Feng Daiwen smiled, his hands clenched hard, and his fingers clicked.

"No, no, I know how to exercise, brother-in-law, you should help the third brother exercise, you see that he is taken care of, and there will definitely be a lack of exercise." Li Tai shuddered, and hurriedly pointed to Li Ke, who was looking at Long Yuzhu with a scoundrel face and constantly picking vegetables for himself.

Li Ke was also speechless when he saw Li Tai's troubles, and looked at Long Yuzhu, who was staring at him with affection, and shook his head helplessly.

"Your father has written to ask the Holy One to grant you a marriage, and I guess the Holy One will agree, but before that, you must pay attention to the impact, so that the little girl will not be able to see anyone." Feng Daiwen implicitly admonished the two.

"No, no." Li Ke glanced at the lovely Long Yuzhu, blushed, and hurriedly said.

"Really? The Holy One agrees! Long Yuzhu only heard the first half of the sentence, turned his head, took his eyes off Li Ke rarely, and asked with a smile.

"There should be no problem, seeing that the two of you have a good impression of each other, I will also be an adult, and I will say a few words for you." Feng Daiwen nodded and said.

"Great!" When Long Yuzhu heard this, he immediately hugged Li Ke's arm and screamed, with a happy smile on his face.

"Alas! Today's children really don't know how to be polite, help her say good things, and don't say thank you, it's really a bad world, and people's hearts are not ancient. Feng Daiwen deliberately shook his head and sighed dissatisfied.

"Thank you, brother-in-law!" For Feng Daiwen's teasing, Long Yuzhu reacted and followed Li Ke embarrassedly.

"Since you called your brother-in-law, I won't let you call in vain, so I can follow Aomei to learn the royal etiquette of the Tang Dynasty with peace of mind in the past few months, otherwise it will be easy to be looked down upon by others at that time." Guang'an said softly to Long Yuzhu.

"Thank you, big sister!" When Li Ke heard this, he got up gratefully and bowed his hand.
