After resting at home, Yang Xue sighed: Fortunately, I have gained a little more strength in the past two months, otherwise I don't know if I can carry things back, and I can't do it like this time in the future. This time, I went to the town and had about 20 pounds.

She felt soreness and didn't want to move at all, but she was hungry and the things she bought hadn't been cleaned up, so she tried to get up again. I lit the fire first, and then went to the river to wash the pot and boil the water to roast the steamed buns, and then I ate breakfast with the steamed buns and water and began to clean up.

Take out all the contents of the basket and sort them out; The grain was placed on the shelves, the cotton cloth and cotton clothes were placed on the bed, a bag of cotton was placed on the ground, and the cotton thread cloth head given by the cloth shop owner was also placed on the bed. The bucket was set aside and ready to be picked up for a while. After cleaning all this, she found a very serious problem, that is, she forgot to buy scissors, she has cotton cloth, cotton and cotton thread, but she doesn't have scissors, and then she can't make quilts and clothes. In the end, she decided that tomorrow in the next mountain, before winter came, the quilt must be ready.

However, she counted the money she still had left, and after removing the used, there was only a piece of broken silver and two strings of twenty wen, which was almost five hundred and twenty wen. Since it was still early, she began to clean up the things that had been added to the house after the autumn arrived. a basket of sand fruits, a basket of prickly pears, a basket of dried persimmons, and a basket of dried mushrooms; and half an air-dried pheasant and one air-dried hare; There is also a basket of yam eggs, a basket of chestnuts, and a basket of walnuts. This walnut is not a pickled walnut from the previous life, but an iron walnut, a particularly hard one. However, no matter how few mosquitoes are, it is also meat, and eating more walnuts is also good for the body. In addition, there are about 20 eggs, a basket of dried wild vegetables, and a bag of wild raisins. The bags of dried mushrooms here are not the same as those of dried mushrooms, the larger bags of dried mushrooms are the hemp bags that cost two pennies when I bought salt, and the ones that contain raisins are small sacks of three pennies that sell grain. This time, I bought food for a penny. Finally, there are some sun-dried peppercorns, not a lot of them found a pepper tree sun-dried, maybe only about a pound of it, also in a small sack. There are also a few Ganoderma lucidum that she found, maybe no one has come to collect them yet, so there are quite a lot, but she only picked a few big ones and came back to dry. With all this, plus the food she bought herself, she should be able to survive this winter.

The next day, she went down the mountain with the rest of the money and a bag of dried mushrooms.

She first went to the grocery store and sold the dried mushrooms, which sold for two hundred and forty yuan. She went to buy scissors and a small hoe again, she was mainly thinking about the yams she had found before and the open space at the door, and there were no fresh vegetables at home, so she bought a hoe, which cost a total of one hundred and twenty yuan. Then I went to the seed shop and bought some radish seeds, and on the way I saw someone selling Chinese cabbage and cowpeas and bought some each. In the end, she went to the grain store to buy a few catties of grain, went to the salt store to buy two catties of salt, bought a small jar of some dried chili peppers from the grocery store, bought ten steamed buns from the bun shop, and went home.

After returning home, I boiled a pot of boiling water, cooled, added chili peppers, and peppercorns to make a jar of brine for soaking cowpeas and cabbage. However, I didn't soak all of them, only half of them were soaked, and the rest was used to eat fresh.

She spent the rest of the day making quilts. Actually, she didn't, she just watched TV and heard others say how to wadd, so it took her a long time to make the quilt. Fortunately, she bought a set of cotton clothes before, so it wouldn't be very cold at night.

In fact, the steps of the quilt are very simple: that is, tear the cotton into an even thin layer of overlap, of course, you must first plan the size of the quilt you want to make. Finally, the cotton thread is used to fix the stacked cotton. Yang Xue used this simple method to sew the cotton layer in cheesecloth first, and finally made a quilt cover. But although the steps are simple, it is still difficult for her to never do it before. For this quilt, in addition to eating, drinking, Lassa, and washing every day, she did this from dawn in the morning to dark in the evening, and it took nearly half a month to make the quilt.

After the quilt was ready, it took another day to make a sheet, and luckily she had done some needlework before. Although at most it is some cross-stitch and sewing and patching, it is not very good, but it will not be good, right?

It took more than half of the cotton to make the quilt, and the cotton was about six catties. Later, when I saw that the grass was spread on the bed and the quilt sheets did not match very well, I made the grass into a straw mat. Then she slowly made a thin bed of cotton wool out of cotton, but this time she used it to cushion the bed. After doing this, there are still about two catties of cotton left, and she wants to make them into a thin cotton clothes, although there is not much cotton, but she is not tall and a little thin, so she can still make a thin cotton clothes. I used the muslin I bought to make two modern vest underwear, and the few sets of clothes I bought before did not have underwear, and it was not particularly comfortable to wear on the body, this time she specially bought ten feet of muslin cloth to make underwear.

When she was done with all this, it was almost winter, and she had to stock up on firewood for the winter. But before stockpiling firewood, she leveled a piece of the ground in front of the door and planted the radish seeds she had bought, although she didn't know if it would grow.

Stockpiling firewood is quick, after all, there is no shortage in the mountains, just move them from the woods to the doorway and then repair them. After stockpiling up enough firewood, she had nothing to do, and the turnips in the field grew, not very well, but she was satisfied.

Winter is coming, and she wants to pack up the river and the way down the mountain slowly, so that it won't take so much time to go down the mountain in the future. The winter in the mountains is not as cold as outside, but she only cleaned up in the first month of winter, and they were all the kind of packing up for half a day and resting for half a day. In a month, she packed up almost one-tenth of the road and came out, the road was about more than one meter wide, and she cut a lot of firewood to open the road, and she didn't need to find firewood for half a year next year.

In winter, many pheasants and hares come out to feed, and she can see pheasants and hares running in the woods almost every day, but she rarely catches them. But she caught them this winter, and in one winter she caught three pheasants and four hares. This should be considered a good result, for a ten-year-old who can't hunt, and it's still a girl.

In the winter, she also made two pairs of shoes, using cloth heads and cheesecloth given by the cloth shop owner. She also used the hoe she bought to dig up yams and He Shou Wu, and the hoe was cut down by herself. The yam is dug to make vegetables and grain to eat, as for He Shou Wu, she plans to dig some home and dry it, and the next time she goes down the mountain, she will take it to the pharmacy in the town with the lingzhi she picked up before to see if she can buy money. In her previous life, her father often dug He Shou Wu to buy it, and the income was higher than the family's income from farming. But I don't know if the people here will accept it.

In this way, Yang Xue came here in the first winter in a semi-busy state.
