Zilan reminded Cui Hao of this matter, and deliberately took a moment to go to the Grange to find the old lady and discuss the matter secretly.

In the end, the old lady's judgment was that it was very likely that he would go to the mountains to fight, and it was right to take precautions in advance.

But you can't just rely on Zilan, the old lady asked Cui Hao to take the silver money to buy medicinal materials from the mountainous and cold regions in batches and come back for storage, just in case, if it really doesn't work, you can also sell them again, and the storage time of medicinal materials can be much longer than food.

Zilan still had some cotton seeds before, including some kapok seeds, and this time she planned to plant them all, and there was no news of the war at present, so she could take care of it slowly and was not in a hurry.

Let people go and find some seeds and seedlings for healing medicine and come back, plant some, stock some regularly, the warehouse is very large and very insured.

Then slowly find some armor suitable for alpine combat, and go back and plant cotton for people to make cotton clothes and cotton shoes, which must be had.

Even if you don't prepare for a war, it's okay, and you can use it all when you go back to charity, and it's okay to do it at all.

If there are more medicinal materials, they can be sent to the cold areas of the northwest in batches for the soldiers to use, and there will be no waste at all.

She plans to grow less food and go back to brewing some soju, one for disinfection and healing of wounded patients, and the other for heating, which is indispensable in the army.

All aspects of preparation, as long as you can think of it, start to prepare slowly.

When you are tired, you can immerse your consciousness in the space and sleep, and now there is nothing big at home, most of them just eat, sleep, sleep and eat, this little work is nothing at all, but I feel that there is nothing to do.

Now I've picked up the work of the school again, mainly because it's too idle.

There are still some young girls who are in the school, and every day Zilan goes to give them an hour's lesson, including the housekeeper, the illustration and the tea art, and I will tell them all when I think of it.

Now the girls have great respect for her, knowing that she is pregnant and cannot be tired, every day when she goes to the school, there will be a pot of warm water placed there in advance, and her chair is cushioned to make it soft.

Every afternoon, if you have nothing to do, you can also draw, read, and play the piano, the time arrangement is very good, and I am not tired at all.

Cui Hao was relieved to see that she was indeed not so hard. Doctor Lin would regularly come to her home to check her pulse, and she also arranged for a doctor to live at home early just in case.

And I have already contacted Wen Po to give a deposit in advance and agreed to be on call.

It also made people start to prepare for the delivery room, and it was more practical to get it in advance, and to arrange for someone to live in advance, otherwise the empty house would not be popular, and the house would be unusually cold, which was not good for pregnant women.

Although Zilan thought that the preparation was really a bit early, but because of Cui Hao's enthusiasm, he didn't say anything, if he is willing to work hard for his child, let him do it, and the child's affection that he has been looking forward to for a long time is not the same.

The day of raising the baby is especially comfortable, this morning I felt a little cold, I got up to see, and I was suddenly pleasantly surprised, it was snowing heavily, and this time there were still large snowflakes.

"It's snowing."

"Isn't it, the snow that fell in the middle of the night last night has not stopped until now, but it has become heavier and heavier. The coming year should be a good year. ”

"I hope so, let the people in the house go to the porridge and send cotton clothes?"

"Grandma don't worry, I've been working since the cold a few days ago, and I'll have been out a long time ago."

Agarwood stomped her feet before entering the door and rubbed her shoes on the mat at the door.

Zilan pondered for a moment, "In this way, you go to the warehouse to get some medicinal herbs, go and boil some bone broth, ask the doctor, such medicinal materials as wind and cold, and boil a big pot with bone broth, and let people move to the place where the porridge is kept."

Give the poor old people and children a bowl to drink, and the mother-in-law, slaves, and guards who are there also work hard, and give an extra tael of silver every month as a reward.

In addition, the soup is a little thicker, not too light, and the minion guards can drink a bowl even when it is cold. ”

"Yes, the minion will go to the kitchen."

"Well, also, let the doctor sit for a while every day, I will add more consultation fees, and prescribe medicine for those poor people who can't afford to cure the disease.

"Okay, I'll go and pick up the storeroom."

Agarwood answered and hurried to do it.

After a while, the Jiang family asked people to come over and spread the word, "You can't let grandma post money alone and it's hard, our second lady said that since it is in the name of Cui Fu, it should go to the public account, so it's fair."

The expenses and rewards are all in the public account, so you don't shirk. ”

Zilan thought about it for a while, if she didn't agree, it would make people think that the second aunt deliberately took advantage of the juniors, and it wouldn't sound good to say.

"It's still my aunt's thoughtfulness, it's that I think less, my aunt loves me, so just listen to my aunt's arrangement.

You let them change shifts, otherwise they will be very cold and easy to get sick if they stay outside all the time, and another one, it is a good job to have a reward for silver, and I don't care about this, everyone will rotate it. ”

"Okay, listen to grandma."

Mama went back to report, and soon Jiang's arranged it, Zilan said that she would pay for the guard's silver, and Jiang didn't refute it this time.

The guards were guarded in two shifts, mainly for fear of people making noise or stampede accidents, and the minions and mothers-in-law could not cope with it, so they needed to take care of one or two.

The doctor is also very willing to diagnose the pulse of the poor, he is originally a folk doctor, not a high-ranking doctor, and has a deeper understanding of the people's suffering.

Cui Fu was willing to come forward to provide medicinal materials, and the doctor was duty-bound, resolutely resigned from the excess consultation fee, and took the initiative to go to the free clinic.

The old lady came back in the carriage, Zilan hurriedly went to the second gate to greet her, Jiang arrived early, accompanied by Cui Rong and Li.

He and his wife lived in Zhuangzi for more than half a month, and Li's complexion was obviously much better, and there was a smile on his face, and his sorrow was also dispersed a lot, and the whole person looked energetic.

"Grandfather, why did you come back early, the eldest brother and sister-in-law are still on the way."

"Everything was fine, my grandmother was still recuperating in Zhuangzi, so I didn't let her come back.

My grandfather said that he came back to see the snow, and he was worried that the heavy snow would collapse the house, so he planned to go to the palace and ask people to organize and mobilize everyone to clear the snow. ”

"Oh, get inside, don't freeze."

"It doesn't matter, I'm not cold at all."

As soon as Zilan entered the winter, she made frost-proof clothes for the second elder, which were carefully characterized from the inside out, but she was afraid that the old man would be frozen by the wind.

"The second family, have you done the matter of giving porridge and sending cotton clothes? Let the doctor go to the free clinic, the medicinal materials are out of our house, this year's snow is so heavy, I am afraid that many people will be homeless. ”

"It's already done, it's been done a month in advance, Lan'er sent guards to watch, and I'm thinking that the food left is not enough. Jing'an Temple also took in a lot of poor people. ”

"Grandfather, I still can't run out of food here, and there is a lot of it in the Zhuangzi."

Zilan hurriedly spoke.

Cui Rong's eyes showed a confused look, where is there more food, I didn't hear the steward mention it, but he didn't say anything.

He lived in Zhuangzi for more than half a month, helping Zilan to look around, knocking on the steward and seeing that they all made wine, as if there was nothing superfluous.

"Oh, it's your Huangzhuang, don't worry, just go back and let Brother Hao do this."

Old lady Cui turned his face and looked at Zilan, his eyes were deep, and his face was slightly serious.

Zilan lowered her head and didn't dare to say anything, almost revealing her stuffing.
