Chapter 7 Make a fire when it's cold
"Where are you going?" Zhao Xiaowan hurriedly asked.
"I brought some firewood back from the mountains and forgot it at the entrance of the town."
The kitchen also ran out of firewood, and in winter, it was essential to make a fire.
Zhao Xiaowan was thin and weak, and she couldn't stand the cold.
Not to mention Li Chen, people are lazy and never do sports, and they are very empty.
If Li Chen woke up from sleep at night, he would inevitably beat them with a wooden stick.
Zhao Xiaoshuang took advantage of the hunting in the mountains to pick up some firewood, but as soon as she came back, she heard that her sister was going to be sold into the Qinglou, so she immediately put down the firewood and ran back.
That's when I remembered.
"Sister! It's dark, I'll go with you. ”
Zhao Xiaowan hurriedly followed out.
"Why bother......"
Li Chen wanted to make a noise to stop them, but the people had already run out of the door.
Every household needs firewood in winter, and Zhao Xiaoshuang has been left outside for so long, she must have been picked up a long time ago.
Li Chen got up and ran to the kitchen to take a look, but there were really only two or three pieces of firewood left.
Back in the main house, a cold wind blew.
poured in from the roof lacking tiles, and Li Chen's nose immediately blew.
This body is so bad that it can't even withstand gusts of wind.
However, the temperature is too low, Li Chen estimates that the temperature should only be a few degrees, and it will only be colder in the middle of the night.
With the thin futon on the bed, I couldn't sleep with my clothes on.
Li Chen was thinking about things in the room.
Gritting his teeth, he also went out.
I can't think of anything when I sit at home.
Relying on his vague memory, Li Chen slowly touched the entrance of the town.
From afar, I heard Zhao Xiaoshuang's scolding.
Her firewood was gone, and she didn't know who took it, so she could only stroll and scold to vent her anger.
"Xiaoshuang, don't scold, it's useless to scold. I'll figure it out that I won't let you get cold. ”
Zhao Xiaoshuang stopped and looked at Li Chen in disbelief.
"Sister, did he fall into the river yesterday and get his head into the water..."
Otherwise, why has it changed so much?
Hearing this, Zhao Xiaowan felt a little more relaxed, she grabbed her sister and said:
"No matter, let's follow him and see, it's better than guessing."
If one or two say that they are abnormal, then he may really be a transsexual.
But Zhao Xiaowan didn't dare to say this idea, or even dare to think about it, for fear that it would be empty again.
Li Chen lowered his head and walked back, followed by the two sisters.
Zhao Xiaowan was puzzled.
He seemed to be looking for something on the ground, but this was in the town, and there was no ready-made firewood on the ground.
"Xianggong, have you lost something?"
Zhao Xiaowan couldn't help but ask in a whisper.
"Well, it's not. Hey! That's it! ”
Li Chen suddenly shouted excitedly, squatting down to pick up something.
The two sisters hurried over to take a look.
Vomit.
In Li Chen's hand, he was holding a piece of stinky dry horse manure.
Hard and disgusting.
"Li Chen!"
Zhao Xiaoshuang drank unceremoniously and pulled Zhao Xiaowan behind her.
"What do you want to do?"
Zhao Xiaowan's body trembled violently, and her hands and feet were cold.
Li Chen in front of her woke her up bad memories.
Once, Li Chen came back drunk in the middle of the night, because he was disgusted that Zhao Xiaowan did not deliver hot water in time, so he dragged her to the yard with the strength of wine, picked up the soil on the ground and stuffed it into her mouth.
Right now, will Li Chen be unable to find a way, so he wants to stuff horse manure into her mouth to vent his anger.
"If you dare to mess around, I will die with you!"
Zhao Xiaoshuang's eyes were full of anger, and she said that she couldn't let the previous scene happen again.
Li Chen was speechless:
"Xiaoshuang, you're just a little girl, don't be so fierce all day long, okay."
As soon as the words fell, Zhao Xiaoshuang pushed his hand hard.
Immediately, the dry horse manure fell to the ground and was crumbled all over the ground.
"Hey."
Seeing this, Li Chen was both distressed and headache.
"It's a good thing, I was counting on it."
In the grassland, horse manure is the most natural fuel, and herders love to use it.
Probably the people here don't know this, Li Chen just walked all the way and found a lot of horse manure on the ground.
Zhao Xiaoshuang sneered:
"yes, you can't abuse my sister anymore."
Li Chen opened his mouth wide, and it took a while to understand.
"Xiaoshuang, you are mistaken, Xiaowan is so beautiful and supple, how could I treat her like that?"
"Phew!" Zhao Xiaoshuang ignored him.
"Xiaowan, don't believe it, don't be afraid."
Li Chen said to Zhao Xiaowan again.
Zhao Xiaowan had a strange feeling, although she was still scared, but she was a little moved.
You must know that Li Chen would never call her 'Xiaowan Xiaowan' before.
will only scold him for being a stinky woman and losing money.
Today, I have always called it that, and my tone is very soft.
Zhao Xiaowan realized that when Li Chen spoke well, his voice was very good.
"I, I'm not afraid. Thank you for not punishing me anymore. ”
Hearing this, Li Chen was embarrassed:
"Do you still need to thank you? It was my mistake before. ”
"Then why did you pick up a pile of horse manure?"
Zhao Xiaoshuang alleviated some of her suspicions, but still called Li Chen very impulsively.
In ancient times, horses were very valuable, and only the rich families in the town had them, but no one knew that horse manure could be used as fuel, so they were just throwing it away.
Li Chen smiled slightly.
Zhao Xiaoshuang's temper is not strange, as long as she doesn't misunderstand herself.
After all, freezing three feet is not a day's cold.
In the past, Li Chen did too much evil, and it was difficult for people to change their views all at once.
"I use it for my own purposes, to light a fire. Let's take a look along the road, there should be quite a few. ”
Li Chen lowered his head and looked everywhere.
"Don't look for it, I know where it is."
Zhao Xiaoshuang stopped him.
Soon, Li Chen followed Zhao Xiaoshuang to a remote hillside, where there were abandoned shantytowns, which were full of horse manure that no one wanted.
The weather is dry in winter, and in recent years, there has been little rain, and the horse manure is quite dry.
Li Chen saw another surprise and a pity.
"So much, why don't you spread fertilizer in the field?"
"What fertilizer?"
This time, Zhao Xiaoshuang and Zhao Xiaowan asked curiously.
They all poked their heads out slightly, and their expressions were similar.
Li Chen didn't know where to start for a while.
Don't know about fertilizer?!
Zhao Xiaoshuang glared at Li Chen with disdain:
"It's disgusting, one moment it says take horse manure to light a fire, and the next time it says put it in the field, put it in the field, will there be a harvest in the field?"
The look in his eyes and tone completely regarded Li Chen as a nonsense piece of wastewood.
"Forget it."
Zhao Xiaowan just wanted to calm things down and persuade her sister in a whisper.
Li Chen's current performance is already very satisfactory to Zhao Xiaowan.
As long as he doesn't go back to being a pure villain, that's fine.
Of course, Li Chen also found out later.
This world is different from the previous life, and the composition of horse manure is also different, so it really cannot be used as fertilizer.
But it's okay to make fuel.
Li Chen asked Zhao Xiaoshuang to go home and bring some containers.
After a while, Zhao Xiaoshuang brought a few large bamboo baskets.
The three of them picked up horse manure and filled four large baskets.
Zhao Xiaoshuang chose the heaviest two baskets and picked them up with a flat pole.
