The next day, the earth was covered in a layer of white.
Rou'er and Xiaomei's cheerful voices rang out in the courtyard, accompanied by Zhang Mama's laughter and scolding.
Zhen Wanwan struggled to get out of bed, opened a corner of the window, and saw a blanket of white snowflakes. Only then did she realize that it was snowing!
This was the first time she had seen snow since she traveled through time, and she was incredibly excited.
Fortunately, Zhang Mama was worried that she and the child would be cold, so she lit charcoal early in the morning, making it warm when she got up.
She dressed herself, kissed her two sleeping babies, and then carefully left the room and ran into the yard.
"My lady, you're awake! I'll bring you breakfast right away!"
As she spoke, Rou'er skipped and hopped towards the kitchen, carrying the breakfasts that were kept warm in pots into the main room one by one.
Zhen Wanwan childishly stomped her feet in the snow in the yard, leaving a trail of footprints, and said with a smile, "What perfect timing! We just moved into our new house yesterday, and it's already snowing!"
"A timely snow promises a good harvest, so next year's harvest will definitely be good. The New Year is just a month away, so I'm thinking of preparing the New Year's goods in advance, otherwise the prices will be very high before the New Year!"
While sweeping the snow off the ground, Granny Zhang spoke to Zhen Wanwan.
Xiao Mei chimed in, "Granny's right. Prices in Anqing Prefecture weren't this outrageous a few years ago, but last year meat, sugar, and melon seeds were ridiculously expensive!"
"Alas! It's all because of these natural and man-made disasters. With this snow, who knows how many people outside will starve and freeze to death!"
Zhen Wanwan listened quietly from the side, but kept everything in mind.
Thinking about the food stored in the space, it's time to use it.
"Grandma, let's not buy meat this year. I'm going to buy a whole pig, slaughter it, smoke some cured meat, and make some sausages!"
As for fruits and vegetables, there are countless department stores, so why would you be afraid of not being able to buy them?
Granny Zhang responded loudly, saying that she would go around the village later to see whose pigs were for sale.
It got a bit cold after being outside for a while, so Zhen Wanwan turned around and went back inside to have her meal.
After the two children woke up and were fed, Zhen Wanwan finally had time to write the letter.
Not long ago, Xiao Liu wrote to her, saying that he had gone to the army camp as an apprentice, as arranged by her.
Xiao Liu was the boy Feng He adopted, and he also became Zhen Wanwan's apprentice. However, Zhen Wanwan had arranged for him to work in the military camp through her connections.
She was aware of her own limited medical skills and did not blindly keep Xiao Liu by her side to avoid misleading him.
Instead, she took the jade pendant that General Xiao had given her, pulled some strings, and had him bring two boxes of alcohol to the military camp. There, she managed to get rid of the military doctor she had met once before and learn Xiao Liu's skills.
The letter reveals that after Xiao Liu arrived, he was recognized and welcomed by the military doctor, who even wanted Xiao Liu to become his apprentice.
However, despite his young age, Xiao Liu still knew how to be grateful. In his heart, he only had Zhen Wanwan, who was not like a master, and he was unwilling to agree to anything she said.
Fortunately, the military doctors and soldiers in the camp took good care of Xiao Liu because they saw the good things he brought and Zhen Wanwan fed him from time to time.
Zhen Wanwan wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of delivering the letter to let him find out about the situation outside.
In particular, we need to know the dynamics of the various factions and whether any major events have occurred among ordinary people.
She knew that if the Hua Dynasty continued to descend into chaos, only the common people would suffer, driven to desperation, and the country would eventually perish.
When that time comes, foreign tribes will burn, kill, and plunder, and the world will surely be awash in blood.
Putting aside these major events, just considering Anqing Prefecture, where they are currently located, if the world really descends into chaos, Anqing Prefecture will not be able to remain unscathed.
So even if she loathed those princes who treated ordinary people like dirt for the sake of power, she wouldn't stand by and watch helpless old people, women, and children fall into hell.
If she continues to sit idly by, what is she trying to gain by holding onto so much stuff in the space?
However, there are ways to help others. If you can't even protect your own life, how can you talk about protecting your home?
In no time at all, Zhen Wanwan had already written a long and detailed article.
In addition to the letter to Xiao Liu, there were also commonly used first aid methods.
After she finished packing the things she was going to send, Zhuyuan walked over.
They talked a lot yesterday and expressed their feelings for each other; it was the perfect time for them to be deeply in love.
However, Zhu Yuan still followed the rules and did not stay in the guest room that Zhen Wanwan had prepared for him.
"Wan'er!"
Zhen Wanwan led the person in with a smile. When Guaibao and Tianbao saw him coming, they happily raised their little hands.
I want a loving hug from my dad.
Zhu Yuan carefully placed his hands on the charcoal to warm them, and only after the cold air dissipated did he smile and hug the two of them.
Seeing how skillfully he could lift a baby with just one hand, Zhen Wanwan could only admire him secretly.
That's incredibly strong!
"Ah Yuan, when are you planning to leave this time?"
Zhen Wanwan sat in a chair, cracking sunflower seeds, watching Zhu Yuan take care of the child all by himself without any burden.
The man opposite didn't seem to notice anything amiss and continued to patiently coax the child while gently responding to Zhen Wanwan's words.
"I will go out again in three days." He paused for two seconds, then explained, "But this time it will probably take about half a month. If all goes well, I can stay in Anqing Prefecture for a longer period of time to be with you and the child!"
Zhen Wanwan was taken aback upon hearing this, a hint of reluctance on her face: "So soon?"
Zhu Yuan just returned yesterday, why is he leaving again?
The two little ones understood their father's words, and looked at him with pouting lips and tears welling up in their eyes.
Zhu Yuan's heart melted; he wished he could immediately change his mind and stay.
But the matter was too urgent, and he had to leave, so he naturally didn't want to deceive the child.
For some reason, Zhen Wanwan pondered for a moment, then threw away the melon seed shells and ran back to the inner room, fiddling with something.
Zhu Yuan wasn't in a hurry. He patiently sat beside the child and watched, occasionally using toys to amuse him.
Although it has been two months since I last spent time with my two children, the bond of blood ties always evokes a sense of warmth and affection.
The two little ones have early memories, and the father, sons, and daughters get along very well.
When Zhen Wanwan pulled out a bunch of things, Zhu Yuan looked at the strange things on the table in surprise.
She took out a bottle of pills and said solemnly, "You must keep this safe. If you are seriously injured, take it!"
"And these too! This is instant noodles. Just add hot water and you can have a hot meal. It's a must-have for going out into battle! No matter what, we can't let our stomachs suffer. It wouldn't be good to get a stomachache!"
"And this...this...A-Yuan, you must remember what I said, okay?"
