In the evening, after Lin Baoru beckoned the family to soak their feet, they found a few rags and wrapped the stones taken out of the stove.

The stone was roasted and hot at this moment, but it was only through the cloth for a while, and the cold hand slowly became warm.

Cai Ru and Cai He were all around her with a look of surprise and expectation, and when they touched the warm pebble bag, their eyes widened in surprise.

"Eldest sister, it's so warm."

"En, it's more comfortable to touch than the soup woman used by grandma." Caihe hugged the pebble bag stuffed by the eldest sister, and was about to jump up with excitement.

Lin Baoru poked her somewhat red face, and while continuing to wrap the stones, she said, "Go and send two to my mother and Xiaoshan, and then send two to my eldest brother." Let them be stuffed under their feet, but don't use it close to their bodies, lest the stones will be cold for half a night, and then let people catch cold. ”

Although this method can temporarily replace the hot water bag, the key point is that she does not know how long the temperature on the stone will last. Right now, she is thinking about responding to emergencies and getting through the past few days without a new quilt.

I didn't sleep all night, even if the cold wind was awe-inspiring outside, and there were a few warm bags in the bed, I felt warm. In the past, a few people who had cold hands and feet at night also straightened their legs and feet for the first time, especially Xiaoshan, and kicked the quilt a few times hotly.

It was probably a solid and warm sleep, and a few people got up early the next morning, and their complexions were much better. And the mountain that was still confused was still holding the warm bag and dozing off carefully.

Lin Baoru touched the stones in the cloth bag, and after a whole night, it was still warm. But in this way, she doesn't have to worry about Xiaoshan holding a cold.

In the next few days, there were not many trivial matters, but after two days, Aunt Lu and Aunt Ma came to help make a few bedding. The second time she came, Aunt Lu also caught the little wolf dog cubs in the family, but Cai Ru and Cai He were rare, and the two of them surrounded Aunt Lu and talked obediently for a long time, so that a room full of people could not stand up.

After making the futon, Lin Baoru saw that there was more cotton, so she stuffed a handful for each of them. Aunt Lu and Aunt Ma originally refused, after all, in these years, white cotton is a precious object. If they take it, they really can't bear it.

However, Lin Baoru said that the cotton was for them to make a blessed belly pocket for their grandson, but they didn't dare to refuse.

In this way, the two of them happily accepted the object. Even with Lin Mancang, he also sent a small bundle of firewood to the two families, although it was not eye-catching, but it was enough for the two of them to say a few words about the sincerity of the second room of the Lin family when they chatted in the village, and of course they would praise Baoru and Mancang for doing things.

came and went like this, as soon as he arrived on the twenty-fourth or fifth day of the lunar month, everyone in the village knew that Lin Mancang in the second room of the Lin family was not stupid, but his head was clear, but he didn't like words.

Of course, some people didn't believe it, but after seeing the young man's spirit, he remembered Lin Mancang's clever appearance when he was a child.

Lin Baoru is also happy to see these changes outside.

With a new bedding at home to keep warm, Lin Baoru's worries have been solved for the most part.

At present, in addition to making pig pancreatic soap, she is trying to find a way to make pig pancreatic soap easier to use and more beautiful. In the end, she asked her to take advantage of the method of steaming dry food and ordering steamed buns in every household during the New Year, and made the pig pancreas into various festive and pleasing shapes.

Of course, she also knows that if she uses it too many times, the shape will not be maintained for a few days. But she pinched out those shapes, which was a gimmick, and she just wanted people to discover the benefits of pig pancreatic soap after using it.

In a blink of an eye, it is the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, which is also the last episode of Liulin Town. Early in the morning, the Wang family was busy rushing to the market.

Taking advantage of Cairu taking Xiaoshan to wash his face, Lin Baoru combed Caihe's two twisted braids. Xu is able to eat enough in the past few days, and she doesn't have to be angry anymore, so the girl who was shocked and overwhelmed when she met someone came to the door has now grown a lot and has a much more lively temperament.

There is no mirror at home, but it does not prevent Lin Caihe from shaking her braids left and right, and asking her eldest sister if she looks good.

"It's good-looking, my family is wearing a pink new cotton jacket, combing braids, and walking out, it's the most beautiful." Lin Baoru smiled and let people get off the kang, she simply cleaned up by herself, and then went to find a basket to fill her own pig pancreatic soap.

After all this work, she rolled up her sleeves and went to the stove too late. If it is cold today, they have to go through the old way, if they don't eat, I'm afraid that the second half of the day will be difficult. So, no matter what, the family has to eat something and pad the mat before leaving.

"Baoru, my mother has already boiled water, you can wash it directly with a few small ones." While helping Lin Mancang brake the rope that tied Chai He, Wang turned his head and said to Lin Baoru, who was about to add to the fire.

Lin Baoru scooped out some hot water, turned around and said, "I'll boil some hot rice, let's eat some before leaving." ”

When Wang heard this, he remembered that in the past, she and Mancang went to the market, and in order to save time, they always walked on an empty stomach. But it's different today, the three girls and Xiaoshan who are still holding also go to the market to watch the excitement, and they really can't be hungry.

She took the strength of her hand, and said with some guilt: "Mother almost forgot about this stubble, don't just boil porridge, warm some dry food and cut some pickles." We went to sell firewood today, and we also had an income, so we didn't miss a few bites of food. ”

Now that she has been with Lin Baoru for a long time, she has also been affected. If it was put in the past, not to mention pickles, she would have to calculate and eat bud rice noodles.

But now, she has figured it out, and the premise of saving life is that the family has to be fed. Otherwise, even if she saved a tael of silver, what was the use?

Wang doesn't want to be the miser in the girl's story, she is now single-minded, and wants to run her life well with a few children. When you go out of the door in the future, you won't let people look down on you.

A large part of the courtyard was warmed by the light of the fire in the stove, and the fragrance of the pot overflowing also diluted the cold outside.

After Cai Ru wiped Xiaoshan's face, she coaxed him to play with Cai He on the side, while she went to help the eldest sister light the fire.

Caihe and Xiaoshan saw that the eldest sister had started cooking, and they also ran over, and looked around their family to see the hot bud rice porridge in the pot.

"Eldest sister, I smell so good." Caihe hugged Xiaoshan around his eldest sister, and the two of them both sniffled, smiling brighter than the other.

Lin Baoru broke two small mouthfuls of bread and stuffed them into the mouths of the two, and said with a smile: "Aunt Lu still smeared honey on my mouth, I look at your little mouth and say that it is sweet, it will make me happy." ”

Lin Caihe hurriedly swallowed the cake, looked at Lin Baoru with bright eyes, and rubbed to the eldest sister's side with a smile, "I didn't make the eldest sister happy, what I said is true." The second sister also said that the food cooked by the eldest sister was more delicious. ”

As she spoke, she looked at her second sister as if she were confirming.

Of course, Xiaoshan in her arms also wanted to speak, but his mouth was small and his strength was small, and he didn't swallow the cake after chewing it several times, so he could only nod vigorously.

Although I know a few small ones, they probably rely on her too much, so I always feel that she is good everywhere. However, listening to their sincere praise of themselves, Lin Baoru's heart was still soft and beautiful.

Because Taoxi Village is far away from the town, if they want to find a good place to sell firewood, they can only set off in the dark. So even if the meal is ready, the sky is still dark and rumbling.

Lin Baoru found two benches and put them in a warm place in front of the stove, and then beckoned Wang and Lin Mancang to come over for dinner.

At this time, Wang and Lin Mancang also bundled the wheelbarrow they borrowed a day in advance with firewood, and as soon as the two of them heard Lin Baoru speak, they went over and squatted in front of the stove.

Breakfast is a simple bud rice porridge, with a few cakes and pickles. However, because of Cairu and Caihe's elated energy, and Xiaoshan ignorantly speaking childish words, the atmosphere in the courtyard was very good.

Several people were holding a bowl and drinking steaming porridge, and the mood was rare relaxed and cheerful.

Although none of them have brought up the old things again, they can see from their expressions alone that their family really feels that there is hope for the future. Even if that hope is just to collect and sell two more bundles of firewood, or to wash a few more dirty clothes in the future......

After eating, Cai Ru and Cai He went to feed the remaining bud rice porridge in the pot mixed with radish tassels to the dog cubs sent by Aunt Lu. It is also thanks to the fact that the dogs in the mountains are all solid, even if they eat these leftovers, the little wolf dogs are getting stronger and stronger.

"Xiao Hei, you take a good look at the house at home, and we'll be back when we're done." Cai Ru touched the puppy's head and told him, that look was really like an old mother. Of course, Caihe on the side also talked to Xiao Hei for a long time like a decent one.

Lin Baoru smiled and rubbed the top of the two of their heads, and said happily: "Okay, let's go, the eldest brother and his mother are waiting outside." ”

When she was about to go out, Lin Baoru pondered for a moment, and then ran back to the house to take out the basin for washing her face.

Although Lin Mancang didn't understand what kind of basin she was taking, he still tied the basin to the wheelbarrow in distress when he saw her holding the wooden basin and pulling the girl.

"Holding it, it's hard to walk on the road." He was concise and to the point, but it made Lin Baoru's heart soften.

In her previous life, several of her siblings were all born after their parents remarried, so they were not close. Sensei said that she supported her back, but when she met, most of them were also a fuss with open swords and hidden swords, so she never enjoyed the feeling of being protected by her brother or younger siblings.

Sometimes, she also thinks that maybe God thinks that her family affection is too scarce, so he will let her cross over and let her enjoy the warmth of family affection.

Before leaving, Wang was worried about being hungry on a few small roads, so he specially packed a few pieces of covered dry food and brought them. When she went out, when she looked at the three girls who were snuggled together and walking side by side, and the back of Xiaoshan, who was wearing a new cotton jacket and hugging the neck of the eldest girl, the smile on her face deepened, and she even secretly muttered for a while that his father blessed.

She had never imagined that her own children would be so good-looking. In the past, she looked at her son as a worker, and her daughters were thinner than the other, like paper children, for fear that a child would not survive if she was not careful.

But now it seems, where are their children so weak? As soon as they cleaned up and dressed up, one by one they looked like girls who came out of New Year's paintings.

Lin Baoru vaguely looked at Wang's mood as if she was a little depressed, and couldn't help asking, "Mother, what's wrong?" Is there something wrong? ”

She crossed over, and the last time she followed Li Zheng to change the title deed, she rushed to a set. There were still people with her that time, and they weren't as enthusiastic as they are now, so she was naturally a little uncertain.

Wang came back to his senses, smiled with relief, waved his hand and sighed: "It's good, it's good, I just thought, let's go to the market together for the first time." ”

At this time, it was still very dark, so Lin Baoru was holding a girl with one hand. And the youngest hill was held by Wang, and he bumped into it.

Behind a few people, Lin Mancang, who had been listening to the chatter of the girls in front of him, was silently pushing the wheelbarrow. In the night, he looked at the family walking in front of him from time to time, and couldn't help grinning when he listened to those small laughter.

No one saw that Lin Mancang, who had always been silent, pursed his lips and looked red. He thought that in the future, he must chop more firewood and do more work, so that his mother and sister and brother will be so happy every day......
