Soon, Qin Ziheng's figure disappeared......

Chen Youyi ran tremblingly to find the half basket of firewood and ran quickly down the mountain, for fear of encountering wild boars and the like again.

When she returned to the thatched hut, it was completely dark, and there was snow outside, but it was colder inside than outside......

Chen Youyi shivered and wanted to make a fire to keep warm, but found that there were no lighters in the grass shed......

Looking back at the bed that was even more disgusting than a pig's nest, Chen Youyi had to admire the original owner's super adaptability and survival ability in her heart!

In desperation, Chen Youyi knocked on the door of Uncle Qin Xianzhi's house......

She knocked for a long time before Zeng opened the door with an impatient face, and when she saw Chen Youyi, a pair of triangular eyes were erected, "What are you yelling there when you don't sleep at night?" The princess idler doesn't have to do anything, but we still have to work. ”

Chen Youyi was not annoyed when she was ridiculed, pursed her lips and said: "It's really cold that there is no fire in my house, can my aunt borrow me a fire to make a fire?" ”

When Zeng heard this, he looked at Chen Youyi in surprise, and his face was also a little disdainful, "You will make a fire, don't burn that thatched hut!" At this time, haystacks are worth a few dollars, so don't make any moths! ”

Chen Youyi frowned, rubbed his fingers that were almost frozen and said, "I will make a fire, it's too cold this day, how can I sleep at night without a fire?" ”

When Zeng's heard her words, he sneered and said, "When your uncle was going to build a kang for you that day, you didn't want to do this, but today you are afraid of the cold?" Besides, the flesh on your body is very good, but it is not to resist the cold and hunger, so let it go over like this tonight, and talk about it tomorrow! ”

As he spoke, Zeng closed the door with a "bang".

Looking at the closed door, Chen Youyi rubbed her arms and sighed helplessly, sighing again in her heart that the original owner was really capable, why didn't he even want a kang......

She was about to turn around and go back to the thatched hut, but she found that there was still a faint light in a hut next to Qin Xianzhi's yard, and she couldn't help but feel happy, and hurriedly turned around and walked there.

The house was lived by the sister-in-law of the Lin family, and her husband was also conscripted into the army, but he was not as lucky as Qin Ziheng and died on the battlefield, leaving the sister-in-law of the Lin family and the one-year-old orphan and widow.

Sister-in-law Lin is a weak and kind character, when the original owner first came to the village, she took care of the original owner for a long time, but then the original owner became more and more excessive, very picky and arrogant, Sister-in-law Lin was afraid, so she didn't dare to negotiate with Chen Youyi anymore.

Chen Youyi knocked on the door lightly twice, and her soft voice came from inside the door: "Who is it?" ”

"It's me, I'm ...... I'm Chen Youyi. ”

After being silent for a long time, the back door was opened with a three-finger-wide slit, and Sister-in-law Lin said timidly through the slit: "Gong...... What does a princess do? ”

Seeing that she looked like she was afraid of herself, Chen Youyi couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and said after coughing dryly: "That...... I want to make a fire, but I don't have a fire fold, and I want to borrow it from you and return it to you tomorrow. ”

Sister-in-law Lin heard her say that she wanted to make a fire, but she had the same surprised expression as Zeng's, but she was weak, so she only glanced at Chen Youyi and said softly: "Wait, I'll find it for you." ”

Chen Youyi nodded hurriedly, and after a while, Sister-in-law Lin brought a fire fold and handed it to her, and explained to Chen Youyi in detail how to use the fire fold.

Chen Youyi couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, and after thanking her, she said, "Isn't my sister-in-law asleep yet?" ”

Sister-in-law Lin pursed her lips a little embarrassed and smiled: "Recently...... A little tight, I wanted to embroider a few handkerchiefs while the tiger was sleeping and sell them as subsidies. ”

As a widow, Sister-in-law Lin can go to the village every month to receive ten catties of rice grain and 100 silver coins, which should be enough, but Chen Youyi often comes to eat and drink these days, so she doesn't even have enough of her own......

As the culprit, Chen Youyi's face couldn't help but heat up a little, and only said: "That sister-in-law rests early, embroidering things at night hurts her eyes, and I will send the fire fold back to my sister-in-law tomorrow." ”

With that, he walked away with his head bowed.

She didn't know that Sister-in-law Lin behind her was stunned for a while when she heard Chen Youyi's concerned words before she shook her head and chuckled, then closed the door and continued to embroider the veil.

Chen Youyi returned to the thatched hut, finally dried the half-dried firewood, and curled up by the fire with difficulty and fell asleep in a daze.

When he woke up, the fire had been completely extinguished, and the room was so cold again that Chen Youyi shivered, but the sky outside was not yet bright. Chen Youyi had already woken up from freezing, so she simply got up and started tidying up the house.

She has always lived alone in her previous life, so her ability to take care of herself is still quite high, and she soon tidied up the house, and then Chen Youyi washed all the dirty clothes and bedding of the original owner and dried them in the yard.

Chen Youyi wanted to make a fire and bake it for a while, but found that most of the firewood she picked up yesterday had been used, leaving only some wet and hard-to-light firewood.

Recalling the location of the dry firewood he found on the mountain yesterday and the location of the wild boar, Chen Youyi decided to go up the mountain again to pick up some firewood and come back, so as to deal with the cold winter in the past few days, and make specific plans in the future.

Chen Youyi picked up firewood much faster this time, and after a while, she picked up most of the baskets of firewood, and she also found that there are some edible wild vegetables in this mountain.

Knowing that she didn't have to keep her stomach empty, Chen Youyi even picked up firewood a lot more briskly, and before she knew it, the basket had been filled with firewood and wild vegetables.

Chen Youyi looked at the basket, thinking that she would not be able to carry it if she picked it up again, so she was about to turn around and go down the mountain, but when she swept her eyes, she saw a trembling white ball behind the tree on the left.

Chen Youyi couldn't help but slow down her steps, but when she got closer, she found that it was a rabbit, probably injured, and when she saw Chen Youyi approaching, she just dragged a lame leg and jumped forward.

If she had seen this scene in her previous life, Chen Youyi might have rubbed the little rabbit distressedly, but now this rabbit is a big meal in Chen Youyi's eyes, and she has involuntarily begun to secrete saliva in her mouth.

Chen Youyi strode forward and grabbed the rabbit in just one click. The rabbit struggled faintly when it was caught, but it could also have been frozen for a long time, and after a while it stopped struggling.

Chen Youyi hurriedly put it in the basket, gently covered it with wild vegetables, and then walked quickly down the mountain. She had to hurry back and make food, she was so hungry!

It's just that she just got home and found that half of the clothes she had been hanging in the yard were missing.

Zeng was sitting on the pier at the door peeling peanuts, and saw Chen Youyi coming back with firewood on his back with obvious ridicule on his face. "Yo, our princess will not only make a fire to do laundry, but also go to collect firewood? Don't you want to make some moth want to trick us Qin Da back, right? ”

Chen Youyi only glanced at her lightly, but did not speak, put the basket into the room and walked up to Zeng again: "Auntie, where are my clothes?" ”
