After waiting for winter to enter, with heavy snowfall, snow-covered sky, and everything in the Northeast coming to a standstill, Lao Zhu's family purchased a total of three hours of land.

In addition to the dozen acres that Zhu Kaishan purchased before the family could acquire land, the old Zhu family's barely scraped family property also exceeded a hundred acres, and they were considered to have entered the class of small landowners.

Although this class is not considered wealthy, when there are no special natural disasters, the family no longer has to worry about going hungry.

With these foundations in place, Lao Zhu's family can slowly purchase and open up more fields.

Considering the size of Fangniugou, it would be quite difficult for Lao Zhu's family to become a fat man in one go.

Most of the villages are homesteaders. If possible, what people don't like to sell the most is their ancestral farmland.

In this era, every family has many children, so when faced with difficulties, most families would rather sell their children than their family fields.

Reality has determined that the remaining people who sell their sons and daughters can still persevere.

If the land is sold, it is easy for the whole family to lose their livelihood.

"Brother, I'm back. The shopkeeper let me go home to rest for a day."

When Zhu Chuanwen was feeding the horses in the courtyard, Chuanjie returned home and saw Zhu Chuanwen in the courtyard and said.

As an apprentice in Chunhesheng, Chuanjie basically had a daily routine of taking a shower every ten days.

During holidays and busy farming seasons such as spring planting and autumn harvest, more rest will be taken. This rest time is not too little.

Although he is just an apprentice in the shop, he has the same rest time as the students in the school, which is humanized in this era.

"Chuanjie, you're back. When you come back, go into the house. Your parents are both here." Zhu Chuanwen looked up and found two tails: "Hey, Chuanjie, take the young master and young lady of Shopkeeper Xia's family,

I brought it back too."

The Xia family's wealth is at least tens of thousands of silver dollars, which is richer than many landowners.

The children in the family are certainly worthy of saying "Master and Miss".

"Brother Chuanwen, Yuqing and I haven't seen much of the village. We wanted to take a look, so we asked Chuanjie to take us back."

Yushu smiled, explained and greeted Zhu Chuanwen.

A pair of children from the Xia family went to school after arriving in Yuanbao Town.

After the Manchu Qing Dynasty was forced to open up, there were still some changes compared to the previous feudalism.

After learning from the West, the new schools built at least accepted female students, and the curriculum was actually more practical.

There are already some prototypes of modern education.

Yushu is considered a female student of the new school. If she wants to, this girl can be knowledgeable and courteous.

It's just that this girl has a happier temperament and is usually more casual.

The Xia family spent the whole day together at Chuanjie, and they could already see some signs of developing into a family.

"Whatever you want to play in the village, just let Chuanjie take you to play. He is very familiar with it."

Zhu Chuanwen replied casually that Yushu had been to the Zhu family several times and was already quite familiar with the Zhu family. When the children came to play, it was not so formal and there was no need to be so polite.

"Brother Chuanwen, I heard from Chuanjie that you went hunting in the mountains and caught pheasants and rabbits. Yuqing and I also want to give it a try."

"It's a bit unlucky that you guys are here. Chuan Wu Gang has already gone to the mountain to set up condoms, otherwise you can still go with him."

In any case, after Chuanwu received a beating and a lesson, although his character did not change, he always gained something and gained some concepts about money.

After everything is fine, I will go to the mountains to set traps and catch some pheasants and rabbits.

Although these things are not very valuable, they can still be considered as making a small contribution to the family.

It's much better than working as an apprentice in a shop, always getting into trouble and having a negative impact on the family.

"Brother, second brother is not here, please take us there. Yushu and Yuqing haven't gone to see the mountains after the snowfall."

The mountains and forests of later generations are dangerous, but the forests of this era are even more primitive.

Of course, it is more dangerous and is a place where parents are prohibited from warning their children to go.

Chuanjie himself is only half-grown, and he still doesn't have the ability to Chuanwu, so he dares to go into the mountains on his own.

In terms of awe, Chuanjie is still much better than Chuanwu.

I have read some more books and they are quite useful.

"Then you wait a moment, I will put on the sledge and take you to the mountains and rivers to fish."

The two children of the Xia family grew up in the prosperous port city of Lushun. They are equivalent to urban children of this era.

Forget about climbing mountains in the snow, I definitely don’t have the ability.

At most, consider that children of this era, who are not as squeamish as they will be in the future, can be taken to the river to break the ice and experience how to catch fish.

"It's okay to fish, but we've never fished ourselves."

Chuanjie wanted to refute something, but before he could say it, Yushu agreed.

Yushu said that he had never been to the village and wanted to come to the village to play. It would be better to say that this girl just wanted to hang out with Chuanjie.

"Xingjie, how are you and the eldest lady of the Xia family doing? Do you need our father to come to the Xia family to help you propose marriage?"

While Yu Shu and Yu Qing came into the room to greet Mr. Zhu Wei, Zhu Chuanwen gave Chuanjie a pestle and joked to Chuanjie.

"Brother, what are you talking about? Yushu and I are just friends who like to play together."

Judging from Chuanjie's serious explanation, it was obvious that he was not yet emotionally enlightened.

"That's because you only think about yourself. Have you considered what Yushu thinks? If a young lady likes to play with a mud-legged guy like you, it can't be because you are so old and like to pee on the bed."

"Brother, didn't you agree not to talk about peeing on the bed?"

Urinating on the bed would make a sensible child of six or seven years old feel ashamed if he did it, let alone a teenager like Chuanjie.

"It's not that big brother likes to ask whether your problem of urinating on the bed has been cured. Big brother should always ask. If it doesn't work, big brother will continue to help you find remedies."

"It still doesn't have any effect." After thinking of the reason, Chuanwu's resentment came up again: "This is the fault of my second brother and Yushu. They are not playing tricks on me, and I will not fall into this problem."

Chuanjie's problem with peeing on the kang comes from Chuanwu and Yushu's prank.

When Chun Hesheng was an apprentice, Chuanjie drank a lot of water. Chuanwu and Yushu took turns giving Chuanjie tea and hawthorn water in the name of caring.

Not to mention anything above, the key point is that Chuanwu has a bad mind, but he has many crooked ideas. He hung red cloth in the men's restroom and disguised it as a women's restroom, so that Chuanjie couldn't find a place to pee.

After finally finding it, Yushu went directly to the door of the toilet and stopped Chuanjie, preventing Chuanjie from entering until Chuanjie could no longer hold back his pants.

After being pranked by two people who cooperated tacitly, Chuanjie fell into the habit of peeing on the bed.

"Don't be afraid. This method doesn't work. Big brother will find another method for you. I guarantee that this little problem of yours can be cured. It won't make you embarrassed to see others all the time."

Zhu Chuanwen's medical skills were not good enough to cure Chuanjie's illness.

This is mainly a psychological problem, which happens to be Zhu Chuanwen's blind spot.

I can only give out some random recipes to give Chuanjie some comfort.

Chuanjie's inner problem of not trusting Zhu Chuanwen's prescription was difficult to solve.

Now all I can do is keep trying and use various excuses to increase trust.

No matter what, it is more effective than the treatment of dancing masters and drinking talisman water.

Feudal superstition is quite serious here, and there has always been belief in immortals and shamans.

In this era, it is no longer easy for ordinary people to take their children to see a doctor. If the doctor cannot cure the child, metaphysical methods are not excluded.

"Brother, can we stop talking about peeing on the bed?"

Regarding the issue of urinals, Chuanjie obviously didn't want to mention it more, and no one else would like it.

"Then let's not talk about the urine bed. Let's talk about it. When you come back this time, do you need to take away an extra set of bedding? It won't be safe if you can't make the bed in time."

"Brother!" Chuanjie jumped to his feet anxiously.

No wonder Chuanwu and Yushu like to tease Chuanjie. Chuanjie is young and acts serious all day long, which indeed makes people want to tease him.

Although Chuanjie is the youngest in the family, he is probably the one who is "bullied" the most.

But this is the child of Lao Zhu's family after all, and there is no possibility of resisting bullying.

After being teased by Zhu Chuanwen and breaking his defense, he became so angry that he bent down and rushed towards Zhu Chuanwen, trying to knock Zhu Chuanwen over.

In this era, it makes sense for most people to advocate the use of force.

The easiest way to achieve various purposes, including shutting up people, is to do it manually.

When you can't convince someone, fists are better to use than words, it's simple, direct and effective.

"Okay, big brother, let's not talk anymore." Chuanjie practiced martial arts with Chuanjie, but he was not very good at it. He wrestled with Zhu Chuanwen, and was bullied one-sidedly. Zhu Chuanwen easily knocked Chuanjie down and continued:

"For such a long time, I haven't had time to chat with you. I just happened to go to the river to play. How about you tell me everything you learned at the Xia Family Warehouse?"

"Let's fight first and then talk."

Chuanjie was unwilling to be thrown down and launched a 'death' sprint towards Zhu Chuanwen.

I still have some childishness and I am rather stubborn.

"Did you spend too much time with your second brother during this period? Your brain is as stiff as your second brother's."
