The weather is getting cooler, the weather here is very extreme, the summer weather is hot, the winter is also snowy, surprisingly cold, November becomes the beginning of winter, two or three months after December, basically snowy weather.

Raisins are not soaked in alkaline water, natural air-drying is the best, but seeing the arrival of November, the weather begins to turn cold, and spring grass can only be soaked in alkaline water to shorten the air-drying time.

You have to prepare firewood at home, and if it starts to snow, you won't be able to survive here without enough firewood. Chuncao basically doesn't have any firewood at home, so he has to start preparing when he is free.

After the two of them had lunch, they began to go to Nanshan. In view of the previous experience of Chuncao going to Nanshan to chop firewood with him, Lu Ziqi originally wanted Chuncao to stay at home, just go by himself, but Chuncao had nothing to do at home, so he just followed.

This time, the two didn't go to the deep mountains, but chopped firewood on the edge of the South Mountain, so it was much closer. Nanshan is far away from the village, not many people come here, but if you see that the winter will soon come, most of the villagers at this time, are preparing firewood for the winter, and occasionally people from the village will come to cut firewood.

Chuncao and the two met two husbands and wives, the middle-aged woman went to the snow village to help, Chuncao had seen it, saw Chuncao and Lu Ziqi go up the mountain to chop wood, and greeted warmly, "Chuncao, come to chop wood?" There's a lot of dry firewood here, so it's cut here. The middle-aged man said hello to Lu Ziqi drinking spring grass, and then continued to chop wood, as for Lu Ziqi, he still had such a wooden face, like a background standing quietly beside spring grass.

Chuncao didn't remember her aunt's name, so she could only greet her with a smile, "Auntie is also here to chop wood, you guys cut it here, let's go over there and cut it a little bit, so that we can cut a little more." “

"No one wants to come to this Nanshan Mountain, there is a lot of firewood, enough to chop, just cut it here and talk, lively, it's far away over there." The aunt warmly retained.

Chuncao thought that if he walked far away, he would be too tired to carry firewood for a while, so he said hello, and the two of them went into the forest on the side. Putting down the back basket in a slightly flat place, Lu Ziqi was worried that Chuncao would fall, so he told Chuncao to chop firewood in the flat place around here, and he took the firewood knife to the more messy woods.

With his own small body, Chuncao didn't plan to go into the forest, so he picked up the dry firewood that fell on the ground in a slightly flat place.

The aunt who was chopping wood next to her also came to the open space on Chuncao's side, and talked to Chuncao while chopping a small dried tree, "Chuncao, I heard that the grapes in the courtyard of the Fang family in Snow Village are in partnership with you, what are you going to do?"

"I tossed out a snack at random, and the shopkeeper in the town thought it was good, so he was ready to produce a little more and try to sell it as a New Year's snack." Chuncao replied with a smile, this is not technical, there is no need to hide it, basically someone asked, Chuncao answered generously and truthfully, even if the people in the village learned, it doesn't matter, business is not something that can be done if you want to, it is a little bit to have capital, and it depends on whether you have that mind and ability.

"Did you make it yourself? What a capability! The aunt couldn't help but sigh, they were blind before, and they thought that this Chuncao was a fool, but now look at it, she is really capable, even if she is married to a poor nerd, she also lives a prosperous life.

Chuncao smiled, "It's just a coincidence, I don't know if I can buy it." Auntie, you can also get a little bit yourself, and it's also good to make snacks for the children in the family during the New Year. ”

"How?" The aunt asked curiously, she didn't expect that the food that Chuncao came up with by herself would tell her like this, so she hurriedly asked. Sure enough, she was still a little girl, and she didn't have any defense, but she didn't think about it, even if she knew? As Chuncao said, did you try it as a snack for children? Or do you want to do a bunch of ready to sell for money? Not to mention whether there is that capital, even if there is a plan to sell it to whom?

"Just air dry like that, and you're good to go. But you have to hurry early, the weather will get cold in the next month, and you won't be able to do it when it's cold. Chuncao explained to her aunt with a smile.

"Alas, there are a bunch of children at home, and there is not enough food to eat, where is there that and spare money to get this thing." Thinking of the children at home, like a pack of hungry wolves, they began to run out of food in March and April, and couldn't help sighing, stopped talking, and began to work.

Chuncao didn't know how to answer, so she lowered her head and silently picked up her dry firewood.

The aunt and his wife chopped the firewood first, said hello to Chuncao and went down the mountain first. Lu Ziqi went to the forest to cut a bundle of firewood and dragged it to this clearing, then he no longer entered the forest, he cut firewood around the clearing, Chuncao picked up a basket of dry matches, and sat tired in the open space and didn't want to move, watching Lu Ziqi chop wood.

Thinking of the aunt just now, Chuncao asked Lu Ziqi, "Nerd, how much does our Xiaowang Village not have enough to eat?" ”

Lu Ziqi glanced up at the spring grass, retracted his gaze and continued to chop wood, and replied, "In most families, as long as there are many children, the food will be a little unavailable in March and April." "I feel that my daughter-in-law is from a foreign country, and I don't know anything about the situation in the village, and I don't even know anyone, and this amnesia is really complete.

This is all without family planning, children are born one after another, and they can't eat enough, let alone others, this is empty quantity and no quality, Chuncao can't help but feel in her heart.

In the past two days, the two of them basically went up the mountain to chop firewood and prepare firewood for the winter. Because Lu Ziqi was out of control that morning, Chuncao drew the line, didn't sleep with Lu Ziqi on a quilt, threw a quilt to Lu Ziqi alone, wrapped a quilt by himself, and rolled to sleep by the wall.

Lu Ziqi was not happy, he insisted on drilling into the quilt of Chuncao, Chuncao kicked over, Lu Ziqi was injured, covering his lower body only in a cold sweat, Chuncao saw Lu Ziqi's appearance, a little worried, and a little embarrassed, it seemed that he had kicked the wrong place, Lu Ziqi slowed down for a while, and then raised his head and looked at Chuncao with an aggrieved face.

It was the first time Chuncao saw Lu Ziqi with such an expression, and as soon as this expression came out, the cold image in Chuncao's heart collapsed instantly, "Poof! Chuncao felt that Lu Ziqi was so funny like this.

"You still laugh when you kicked me?" failed to sell cuteness, as soon as Lu Ziqi spoke, he instantly recovered his cold expression, and reached out to scoop up the spring grass that couldn't bear to laugh, "Sleep." ”

Chuncao struggled twice, did not break free, and finally compromised, seeing that he had just kicked him lightly, it should not be like what he did to himself, plus he was really tired of chopping wood, so he quietly lay down in Lu Ziqi's arms and slept.

Holding the spring grass in his arms, Lu Ziqi smiled with satisfaction, and soon fell asleep after a day's hard work.

In the blink of an eye, the five-day appointment with the shopkeeper of the ten-mile long pavilion is coming, Chuncao got up early in the morning, used halogen, boiled half a pot of brine, put an altar with a wine jar, and was ready to set off after breakfast, Lu Ziqi must not worry about Chuncao going alone, this girl, when she is smart, she is stupid, and she didn't even know where she was before, he didn't worry that she would go out alone, or watch it by herself.

On the way, Chuncao remembered the name of the Ten Mile Long Pavilion, so he said to Lu Ziqi, "You read me the poem about the Ten Mile Long Pavilion." ”

"The verses of the Ten Mile Long Pavilion? No. Lu Ziqi replied to Chuncao, "The word Ten Mile Pavilion is just the name of a restaurant." ”

"Hasn't anyone ever written a poem or a book about the Ten Mile Pavilion?" Chuncao asked, this is not scientific, in the present many poets, lyricists love to use the ten-mile long pavilion, here is actually the name of a simple restaurant.

"Nope." Lu Ziqi's answer is very affirmative, for so many years, his only hobby is reading, which is still very confident, but he has never seen a book or poem about the Ten Mile Long Pavilion.

"It's not scientific." Chuncao shook her head, muttering.

"What is science?" Lu Ziqi asked Chuncao curiously, he didn't just hear some strange words from Chuncao's mouth once that he didn't even understand.

Hearing Lu Ziqi's question, how to explain this to her? Lu Ziqi first frowned when he saw Chuncao, then raised his head seriously and told himself, "I don't know what science is. ”

Lu Ziqi was speechless, he didn't know what science was, how did he say it? Seeing Chuncao's serious face, don't you want to say it? He was not entangled, and took Chuncao's hand and quickened his pace. As everyone knows, Chuncao is not reluctant to say it, but really doesn't know how to explain to Lu Ziqi what science is.

The two of them first went to Daddy Fang's house in Snow Village, and went to the old house of the shopkeeper Fang with Daddy Fang, and looked at the situation of the grapes, everything was fine.

Chuncao is very lucky, there is no rain in this place in September and October, the weather is particularly good, otherwise so many grapes, just like this in the open air in the yard, a rain can be all wasted, but Chuncao thinks, just in case, to be dehydrated almost, or move into the room to dry, this with alkaline water soaked, after four or five days, you can be put into the house.

After that, he borrowed Daddy Fang's ox cart and hurried to the town.

It was almost noon when I arrived at the ten-mile long pavilion, and Chuncao stepped into the store, the hall was as empty, and there was not even a little two today, only vaguely heard that there seemed to be a voice in the private room upstairs.

"Anyone?" Seeing that there was no one in this hall, Chuncao had no choice but to speak.

After the sound of knocking upstairs, a head popped up at the top of the stairs, it was really the little young master from last time.

"Ah, you're finally here, if you don't come again, I'll have to leave tomorrow, and I'll never be able to eat such delicious meat again." The little young master ran downstairs with a bang, went downstairs with some excitement, grabbed Chuncao's arm and said.

Lu Ziqi had a cold light in his eyes, broke the little master's hand, pulled Chuncao to his side, hugged Chuncao's waist, and brought it to the side, not wanting Chuncao to get too close to this kid.

"Who are you?" The little young master opened his mouth very dissatisfied.

"I'm her father-in-law." Lu Ziqi said coldly.
