18. The snow disaster is coming

"I swear I'll never look down on ribs again."

After a gust of wind and clouds, Qin Zheng held his stomach and spread out on the wooden chair of the Shen family without any image, burping.

The six dishes in front of the table were eaten cleanly, even the soup of the braised pork was not spared, and the rice in the pot was also dried by him three bowls.

Shen Xingluo looked at the scene in front of him and fell silent, his family's dishes and chopsticks had never been so shining......

"This pork bone is meatless and ugly, how do you make it so fragrant?"

Qin Zheng smashed his mouth and savored, as for the Qin family's upbringing over the years - that is a divine horse? Nothing matters in front of the food!

"Xingluo, sister-in-law is really not the descendant of the imperial kitchen?"

"You've eaten all the world's delicacies, do you know any imperial chef who can make the same taste?"

"Yes."

That's even weirder!

Qin Zheng couldn't figure it out, Qin Zheng didn't understand.

However, the biggest advantage of this baby is that it can't be seen more seriously, and it is quickly forgotten after not getting an answer.

"You said you lived well in Fucheng, why did you move to the countryside?"

"Pure."

“......”

Qin Zheng was successfully choked by these two words, and his gaze stayed on his friend's side face for a long time.

"Don't worry, leave this matter to me, with my Qin family's connections, can I still find a miracle doctor who can remove scars?"

Shen Xingluo glanced at him lightly, "Can you represent the Qin family?" ”

“...... Hey, can you talk well, how to say that I also have a lifetime of silver! ”

There must be brave men under the heavy reward, do you understand?

After this classmate was disabled, his temper became worse than before, and he poked people's hearts in one mouth.

Although Shen Xingluo was not easy to get along with, Qin Zheng still didn't plan to leave, and dragged it until the sun went down, and then he got on his luxury mount.

"Will I be able to come more often in the future?"

“......”

Shen Xingluo looked at the last big man reluctantly, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

"The old people in the village said that there is a risk of snowstorm this year, and remember to prepare more food when they go back, so as not to starve themselves to death."

"My Qin family has a grain shop, don't worry."

"Then pull it to the house."

"Are you serious?"

"It's up to you whether you listen or not."

In his previous life, he only learned about Qin Zheng later.

When the snow disaster came, the people in Lin'an Mansion were hungry and rushed many grain shops, and the Qin family, as an imperial merchant, was not spared.

The gangsters who infiltrated the Qin Mansion at night were burned by a fire, and Qin Zheng had a whim to play in the snow that day to escape and become the only survivor of the Qin family's third room.

I have to say that this fool is a bit lucky.

"Listen to you, when I get home, I'll tell the shopkeeper to bring more rice and noodles."

The Qin family's carriage quickly disappeared into Shenjia Village, and the inhumane carriage in the trench under the fiery red sunset emitted a dazzling light, and there was a faint exclamation from someone in the car.

Shen Xingluo: "......"

***

After a few busy days, the construction of the Shen family's small courtyard was completed.

The ondols in the three bedrooms have been dried, and they will soon heat up if you put firewood in the stove.

An iron furnace was also installed in the living room in the middle, and Cheng Xi used his innate divine power to dig a round hole in the north wall to connect the iron pipe out, and there was no smell of smoke in the house.

All the paper windows in the North House were sealed, and in addition to that, a simple version of the sliding window was made of wooden planks, which could be pulled up at any time to protect against wind and snow if the window broke.

The cellar in the yard was full of vegetables, enough for them to eat for a year.

The chicken and duck coop was built with a thick layer of red bricks, and a thick layer of sun-dried straw was used on top of it, and several chickens and ducks inside reported to dawn on time every morning.

There are 5,000 catties of grain neatly placed in the cellar under the wooden board in the kitchen, and there are 200 catties of rice noodles that Cheng Xi has bought back one after another in recent days.

The earthen wall on the periphery of the small courtyard has been raised to two and a half meters, and ordinary people can't see the inside from the outside.

This small farmhouse courtyard with a small area has become an iron wall, which can be said to be armed to the teeth.

Inside the North House.

Shen Xingluo opened the iron furnace door with an iron hook and added a few pieces of charcoal, and the thinner part of the iron sheet was burned red.

"It's so warm~"

Shen Xingqi stared at the iron pimple for a long time, but still couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes.

"In the past, I was shivering from the cold in the winter, but my home has never been so warm!"

What are you wearing now?

A dress that you often wear when you go out in the spring!

And now she can feel sweat whenever she moves, and her home is even warmer than spring!

"Sister-in-law, this iron stove is much better than a brazier, how did you come up with it?"

It is true that charcoal can keep out the cold when the brazier is placed, but the windows must be kept open to keep the room ventilated, so that when it is hot here, the cold wind will blow the cold wind and doubt life.

Where is it like now, the whole body exudes warmth.

At this moment, Shen Xingqi completely fell in love with winter.

"Just use your brain."

Cheng Xi by the window quietly withdrew the thermometer, it was already minus 8 degrees.

"People come up with all the solutions."

"To solve the problem, we must first find the problem, and then analyze it in all aspects, list all the possibilities, remove a few impossibilities, find the key to bold assumptions, and finally verify them one by one, and the problem will be solved."

“......”

Shen Xingqi looked ignorant.

Cheng Xi patted her little brain, "For example, when you see the brazier, don't you wonder if it can provide heat but still make you feel cold?" ”

"But that's how everyone came here?"

“......”

It was she who lost.

The influence of feudal ideology is deep-rooted, and it cannot be broken in a moment.

Shen Xingluo, who had been silent, glanced at her sharply, and then lowered his eyes to hide his deep thoughts.

Her way of thinking has come into its own.

It seems simple but full of endless wisdom, just a few words fit in everything, down to the brazier to the court to solve the problem, and it all comes down to her words.

In fact, what the world lacks is not the brain to solve the problem, but the eye to find the problem.

Just like Xingqi now.

"Bang bang!"

"Is Xingluo here?!"

There was a knock on the gate of the courtyard, breaking the contemplation and conversation of the trio.

Shen Xingluo put on a thick cotton coat and pushed the door out, the north wind outside was cold and biting, scraping his face like a knife.

He opened the door, and a familiar figure appeared in the doorway.

"Uncle Bolt?"

The person who came was a carpenter from the village, holding a few wooden things, and smiled when he saw Shen Xingluo.

"Xingluo, I'll deliver something to your family."

Cheng Xi heard the sound and heeled.

"Uncle Bolt, is the wooden trough ready?"

"Ah yes, I sent it before it was done...... Oops, why did it start snowing? ”

The two looked up at the sky, and the snowflakes fell in large pieces, and the drops on their faces quickly melted.

Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi glanced at each other, their eyes solemn.

The snow storm is coming.
