"Will all the people in the north freeze to death?"
"Ah, this is impossible, right?"
"The emperor is also in the north. If he freezes to death..."
"Shh, don't talk nonsense. If you say the wrong thing, you will be beheaded."
"This cold weather came a little late. If it had come earlier, the crops in the fields wouldn't have been harvested yet, which would have been terrible. Fortunately, God has been kind, and apart from the suffering during these few days, nothing much has happened."
"I heard that several people in the village froze to death, all of them elderly and children. It's so pitiful..."
"It's so cold, I'm afraid many people in other villages have frozen to death, right?"
"We are all lucky to be alive now."
…
That day, Li Fangming came to the Cai family with a few servants.
Liu Shulin was surprised and came over to greet him, "Master Li, why are you here?"
Seeing that they were fine, Li Fangming felt relieved. "I came to visit you. Seeing that you are okay, I feel relieved."
Then he sighed, "This heavy snow has lasted too long and is so cold. I heard that many people have frozen to death, so I'm a little worried about you."
"Fortunately, the snow is over and you are all okay!"
Then, he noticed that Cai Junze was holding a child in his arms, and his eyes flashed, "Brother Junze, this child is... Yang'er?"
He had also heard about Yang'er from Cai Junze.
Cai Junze smiled and said, "Yes! Yang'er is back!"
Then he said to Yang'er, "Call Uncle Fang Ming quickly!"
Yang'er: "Uncle Fang Ming!"
A well-behaved look on his face.
Li Fangming smiled and replied, "Hey!"
"It's still a bit cold outside, let's go inside and talk." Liu Shulin said.
As he spoke, he invited Li Fangming into the house and sat around the charcoal brazier to warm himself.
Cai Junze told Li Fangming about some recent events, including how Yang'er came back.
Li Fangming also congratulated Yang'er on his return.
Cai Junze asked him about the situation at his house, and Li Fangming said everything was fine.
Although the heavy snow was beyond their expectations, there were still sufficient supplies in the mansion.
What's more, the last time he came, he took some charcoal back from the Cai family.
This time, he also brought some supplies to give to the Cai family.
"Mr. Li is too polite." Liu Shulin said with a smile.
"It's just a little token of my appreciation." Li Fangming smiled slightly.
"What's the current situation in the county?" Liu Shulin asked.
"This heavy snow has had a significant impact. It will take more than a month or two for the damaged vitality to recover," said Li Fangming.
"I was thinking of opening a store in the county town, but it seems that it won't be possible in the near future." Liu Shulin said with a smile.
"At least until March. The economy in the city is very bad right now." Li Fangming said gently, "Aunt, when the time comes, you want to open a store in the county town. If you need anything, you can ask me for help."
Liu Shulin nodded: "Then I would like to thank Master Li in advance."
Li Fangming said, "Junze and I are sworn brothers. This means we are like a family. It's only natural that we help each other."
Liu Shulin sighed in her heart that the prodigal son was extremely lucky to have picked up this "brother".
Cai Junze said, "Brother Fang Ming, how do people in the north survive this winter with such heavy snow? It's already so cold here, I'm afraid it will be even colder in the north, right?"
His eyes were filled with curiosity.
