Chapter 84
Thousands of people were wiped out in the snow, and it was -30 degrees below zero in Yidong. Almost all the nearly primitive houses were trapped in the deep layer of snow. With the severe winter of men, women no longer feared that their roofs would be trampled by snow, as long as they
As soon as the weather clears, the men will shovel away the snow to expose the hut so that it will not collapse in the snow.
In the winter of the first year of Taixing, the local chronicle of Linchun County recorded that only a dozen people died throughout the winter, compared with thousands or hundreds in previous years, setting a record low.
Ji Rongjin didn't know these data. She didn't know the real-life effects of her "fueling the flames", which not only protected the loss of population, but even gave birth to thousands of people in one winter, laying a solid foundation for the future development of Yidong.
.
After returning from Beishan, Yan Tao was as busy as before. Even though they lived under the same roof with rooms next to each other, the two of them rarely saw each other.
Yan Tao has a very regular schedule. He gets up early every day to exercise, then has breakfast, then starts working, and then has lunch. There seems to be a lunch break after lunch, but sometimes he goes back to his room and sometimes he doesn't. Ji Rongjin, who stays in his room and doesn't come out, doesn't know very well.
I still worked on my work in the afternoon, and for some time before dinner in the evening, I heard Kang Tai talk about reading and practicing calligraphy. After Yidong entered October, it would get dark at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, so Yan Tao could not work for a long time in the afternoon.
As long as Yan Tao doesn't take the initiative to come to Ji Rongjin, Ji Rongjin will be like a little squirrel with winter eyes, sitting in a small room eating, drinking, doing yoga, and even playing with Cuifen about eating, applying creams and masks, and sleeping until he wakes up naturally.
She would find something to kill the day, until it got dark at three or four o'clock, then she would lie under the quilt and sleep.
From 3 or 4 in the afternoon to 8 or 9 in the next morning, she slept for 14 to 16 hours, which was as good as that of a baby. The strange thing was that she could also sleep. Not only that, except for being
I wake up after urinating and I can't fall asleep. Even if I sleep for so long, my waist doesn't hurt and my legs don't hurt when I wake up. It's amazing.
Seeing that the New Year was coming, Ji Rongjin started to get busy. In fact, it was not her who was busy, but mainly that she directed Cuifen, Mai Xiaoji and others to buy and kill pigs to prepare for the New Year.
Thanks to Yan Tao's glory, there is sufficient food, and there are no foreign species such as potatoes and sweet potatoes. So we have to use mung beans to make vermicelli and prepare the most classic Northeastern dish - Chinese cabbage and pork vermicelli. Let's all sit together and have a lively New Year.
In addition to preparing this, how can we miss the blood sausage and red sausage from the Northeast, as well as pot meat, chicken stewed with mushrooms, mutton pot, and spiced sugar smoked rabbit?
, stewed rabbit meat and shredded radish soup, skin jelly and other dishes were quickly made.
Everyone has entered into the joy of a busy year.
Because of Yan Tao's identity and status, the location of the busy year was not chosen in the five-room compound, but in the two huts where Mr. Situ and Mai Xiaoji lived. A large shed was built in front of their huts, with all the surroundings above and below.
They surrounded it with a straw curtain to keep out the wind and cold, dug a stove in the middle of the shed, and set up two large iron pots to cook on it. It was so lively that even Chief Wu Pavilion came over to discuss allowing the whole town to participate.
"Don't worry, every household will bring ingredients and they won't eat your food in vain." No one froze to death in the town this winter, and everyone's life was better. He was so happy that he couldn't help but come over to join in the fun.
Of course, eating is one thing. Chief Wu Ting mainly wants to let the whole town enjoy the good luck of Xiao Fu Niang. He believes that he will not misjudge the person.
The people in Dongsheng Town are simple, and the aunties also helped her a lot when selling fruit wine in the autumn. How could Ji Rongjin refuse? She smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll listen to the old pavilion chief."
She sold the favor of the old pavilion chief. After all, she wanted to live, so how could she not have good dealings with the people in Dongsheng Town!
