There is very little snow in winter, only cold rain, damp and wet.

Yun Jianqiang leaned on the edge of the fire and couldn't stop shivering, Yun Zheng put on all the things that could keep him warm at home, this child was still shivering, fortunately, there was no fever, if he got sick with a fever in this ghost place, Yun Zheng simply didn't know what to do, there was no hospital, no doctor, no medicine, except for Xiangshang day prayers, there was no way, and the nearest Chinese medicine shop was also fifteen miles away from Doushaguan.

Maybe it's the reason why the orphan is taken care of, it's been three months since he came to this shijie, and neither of them has ever been sick, especially Yun Zheng, after three months of training in chopping wood, he is now no different from the stick boy of the Cang'er family, with an authentic local accent, which makes the old patriarch very satisfied, in his opinion, this is a baby in the village.

The rain in winter is really a sin, and the simple bamboo building can't stop the invasion of humid air at all, even if Yun Zheng burns the fire pit to no avail.

The little yellow dog got into Yun Jianqiang's quilt, holding the puppy may be warmer, this dog has grown up a lot, and has become a half-sized yellow dog, although it is only a soil dog, but it is the lifeblood of Yun Jianqiang, the Yun family has only two people, Yun Da, and Yun Er, this is how the people in the village call the Yun family brothers, and the little yellow dog naturally became Yun San.

"Be strong, wrap the quilt tightly, don't breathe the wind, sleep when you want to, we can't do anything today." Yun Zheng put down the book in his hand and whispered.

There was a sound from the clay pot hanging on the fire pit, and the ginger tea that Yun Zheng had boiled was finally burned, and poured a little into the strong bowl, seeing that he was still reluctant to drink it with a bitter face, Yun Zheng shook his head and came to the wall and cut a small piece of beehive from the hook and soaked it into the strong bowl, where there was honey, and with honey, the ginger tea was not so bitter.

This is a gift from nature, of course Yun Zheng knows that for this hive, he was stung by a wasp on his back with two large bags of eggs, and it will slowly go down after three days.

At this time next year, an adobe house must be built, although the adobe house cannot withstand the erosion of heavy rain, Yun Zheng plans to do the same, and the bamboo building is really not a habit that his brother can live in.

Yun Zheng poured out a money bag from a thick bamboo tube, in fact, he didn't need to count it, he knew that there were one hundred and thirty-one cents in it, took it out and looked at it, stuffed it again, and plugged it with a stopper.

"Big brother, we didn't have anything to do when we came, but I remember you still have a mobile phone. Sell it and our house will be gone. ”

"Don't think about it, the phone was smashed by me, leaving only a mobile phone pendant, although the mobile phone pendant can be worth some money, but it can't be moved, that's what I prepared for you, in case you get sick, I need to exchange it for money to see you, it doesn't matter, next year I will definitely be able to earn enough money to build a house for us, maybe it's a blue brick house."

We built a big kang in the house, and in winter we burned the kang warm, telling you that the hot kang is too much than the heating haode, we put a small red clay stove on the kang table, stew a pot of sauerkraut and white meat, and even eat the soup instead of meat, not to mention how enjoyable it is. “

Yun Jianqiang drooled and smirked, as if he had seen such days, Yun Zheng slapped him lightly on the head, and then picked up the book and continued to read.

The little yellow dog's ears suddenly stood up, Yun Zheng glanced at the little yellow dog, took the book and pushed open the door of his house to look out, the light rain outside was still endless, and the village seemed to be shrouded in a green mist. A group of officials suddenly came out of the green mist, Yun Zheng felt very ridiculous, and a group of officials was riding on a horse that was not much bigger than a donkey, and both feet were about to touch the ground, so he raised his head and roared loudly: "Old cangtou, you old dog listen to me, the official family wants to rectify the city defense of Dousha Pass, and every household must produce a strong man, and if there is one less, you will take your old dog to the top." ”

The old man came out of the bamboo building with a smile and said with a smile: "Liu Dutou, what kind of wind has blown you over, go upstairs quickly, drink two bowls of light wine to get rid of the cold, and you have to work hard in such weather, which is really evil." ”

Liu Du got off the horse as soon as he turned his legs, handed the horse whip in his hand to the servant, and scolded and followed the old man upstairs, Yun Zheng put down the book in his hand, and told Yun Jian to keep himself warm and come when he went.

Yun Zheng went up to the bamboo building of Cang's family's house, and saw Cang'er and his mice shrinking in the corner, and three women stayed in the back room and didn't dare to come out, only Cang Lao accompanied the five officials to roast and drink.

Seeing Yun Zheng walking up, the old man hurriedly took Yun Zheng's hand and said to Liu Dutou: "Look at it, this is the treasure in our village, I have been studying with Mr. outside a few years ago, and I will take the county exam this year, so I will return to my hometown." Look at it, he is a scholar, his body is thin, you see that the coolie child can't stand it in this cold weather, so you raise your noble hand and let this child go. ”

Listening to the old man's words, Yun Zheng stepped forward and arched his hand towards Liu Dutou and said: "The kindness of the elders, the kid has it, but the establishment of a household is determined by the law of the country, grandpa, you are embarrassed by Liu Dutou." ”

Liu Dutou looked at Yun Zheng playfully, he found that this child had a calmness that other children did not have, even if he was now facing the hardships of serving in the cold winter, he still said that he was neither humble nor arrogant.

"Now that you know that this is the law of the country, you should also know that you can take next year's Xia Fu after taking office, this is not a bad thing, since you have already established a household, the head of the capital has to treat you as an adult."

The old man is in a hurry, there is labor in the winter every year, those jobs are either moving stones, or carrying the earth and cushioning the city is definitely not a small body like Yun Zheng can stand down, just about to speak, I saw Liu Dutou take out a thin account book from his arms, and give it to Yun Zheng and said: "It is inevitable to go out to work, no one can help you, but what work to do on the construction site, Ben Dutou can adjust one or two, since you are a scholar, the dynasty has always treated scholars preferentially, not to mention that our Mianzhou is a remote place, and there are few readers. As long as you can check this account book in one hour, Bendu Tou will ask you to take care of the food account book on the construction site, and you don't have to work on the construction site, and you will also be counted as having completed your labor, what do you think? ”

Yun Zheng took the account book handed over by Liu Dutou, opened it and looked at it, and immediately had the bottom in his heart, he originally thought that it would be the legendary four-pillar inventory, that need to know the old management and income, only knowing the actual amount and subtracting the expenditure is a complete account book, and now what he is holding in his hand is just a running account, which is also full of fallacies such as 3728, these must be evidence of corruption, Yun Zheng chuckled, and began to mentally calculate these simple accounts in the old man's worried eyes.
