She kept one bottle of the ointment she bought yesterday, and gave the rest to her mother, eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, Shufeng, and one bottle shared by Shuduo and Paner. She gave three bottles of the frostbite ointment to her eldest brother's family, two bottles to her second brother's family, kept two bottles for herself, and divided the remaining five bottles among Xingfu Meiman and the three farmhands in the family.
The few people who received the frostbite ointment were overjoyed, even happier than receiving their wages. Last time when Chunxiao distributed money to the manor, she also gave Xingfu and Meiman three taels of silver each, and now she gave them the frostbite ointment again. The two didn't know how to repay him, so they could only work harder.
Chunxiao saw that the weather was good and wanted to try the shampoo and bath cream he bought yesterday, so the two of them helped to boil water. This money-making stuff was extraordinary. He could smell the fragrance of osmanthus before he even started washing.
"Miss, it smells so good."
"It smells good, but it's useless. What's most useful is something that can remove oil and clean the hair."
After washing it, she did feel her hair was much fresher. It seems that the saying "expensive products are good" is true.
After washing her hair, she went to the bathroom in the backyard to take a shower. Xingfu Meiman wanted to help her, but Chunxiao firmly disagreed at first. It was not for any other reason, but she felt embarrassed. Finally, after being rubbed twice by the two of them, she felt that a layer of mud on her body had fallen off. It was really comfortable. If she was not afraid of catching a cold after washing for too long, she really wanted to wash for a while longer.
After coming out, I smelled fragrant all over, and when I put on my newly bought winter clothes, I felt like an extraordinary person.
Xingfu and Meiman helped her scrub her body, and their sleeves were wet. Chunxiao asked them to boil water and take a bath as well. In this way, everyone took a bath.
When Shufeng came and saw Chunxiao's clothes, her eyes were exaggerated. "Aunt, when did you buy these clothes? They are so beautiful. You look like a fairy when you wear them." She circled around her and said, "Aunt, you smell so good. You bought new clothes and perfume. Why does your perfume smell different from mine?"
"I just took a shower and used some bath cream. You little girl, you only know how to say nice things to make your aunt happy."
"I'm not lying. I'm telling the truth." She puffed out her cheeks. "I like your dress. Where did you buy it? I want my mother to buy me one too."
Chun Xiao smiled, "You're rich, aren't you? Why do you need your mother to buy it for you? I bought it at the embroidery shop in town. It's really beautiful."
Shufeng nodded repeatedly, "It looks very beautiful." She said it very seriously, indicating that she was telling the truth.
Chunxiao tapped her nose and said, "Okay, if you like it, you don't need your mother. We can go there with Shuduo and Pan'er some other day, and Auntie will buy one for each of you."
Shufeng nodded her index fingers in confusion, "But mother said that auntie can't spend money on things." She was a little conflicted. She didn't want to spend her auntie's money, but she couldn't touch her own money. Besides, everything her auntie bought was good. Otherwise, she should ask mother for help. After figuring this out, she smiled and said, "No need for you to buy it, auntie. I know the place and I'll take my mother to buy it. It's better to buy a few sets."
This, I'm afraid that Tian Shi will be lucky enough to buy a set after hearing the price. The two sat in the yard and basked in the sun. "Why did you ask me to do this today?"
"Grandma said that our family is going to slaughter a pig soon and also catch piglets. They plan to stop raising pigs at home and keep four on the farm. She wanted to ask you if Lu Village wants to raise a few pigs as well. If so, she can go and order piglets."
Chunxiao thought this was a good idea. They just needed to build a pigpen. There were people over there with so many vegetable plots, so they wouldn't have to worry about meat in the future. "Tell your grandma to catch four pigs for me too."
Shufeng looked at her and said, "Aunt, why don't you come with me? You are dressed so beautifully today. It would be a shame for you to stay at home alone and not go out to let others see you."
"Don't let your mother hear you say this. If she does, she'll scold you. Women shouldn't show off. I dress like this because I like it, just to please myself, not to get compliments from others. Remember this in the future."
Shufeng nodded in agreement. She always listened to her aunt.
Now the chickens at home and in the farm have grown up. The farm can collect hundreds of eggs every day. Chunxiao and her family can bring some back every once in a while. Now the family no longer needs to collect eggs from the village. She also told Wang Shiwen to remember to eat eggs when there are plenty of them. As a result, Wang Shiwen took the leftover eggs to the town to sell them. Naturally, the money from the sales was put into the public account. Chunxiao could do nothing about this.
On the 10th, Chunxiao had just delivered a few old hens to Zhuangzi when it started snowing.
Yan Bangfa and his men have been out for five days. It's snowing today, and no one knows how many days it will last. It will definitely become increasingly inconvenient for them to be outside. Fortunately, they have a lot of silver on them, so they should be able to take care of themselves.
The snow fell very heavily and lasted for four days. The snow outside the yard was almost half a person's height, but there was no trace of snow inside the yard. Happiness and Meiman cleaned the snow in the front and back yards every day.
It was the first time for Chunxiao to see such heavy snow, so looking at the white snow outside, he felt an urge to go out and play.
This action scared Xingfu and Meiman. "Miss, don't take the risk. The snow is so deep. If you fall in accidentally, you won't be able to find yourself and you won't be able to get up. It's so dangerous. You might as well look at the chickens in the chicken coop. Our grass is thick, and they have all hidden in the grass. Look at the cows, they also like to lie motionless in the grass." He tried every means to divert her attention.
"I have to find something to do, otherwise I'll start to have wild thoughts when I think of my dad and my older brother."
"They will all be fine, miss. How about this? I will teach you how to braid your hair. I know several kinds of hair styles. After I teach you, you will be able to do it yourself when you go out in the future." There is no need to simply wrap your hair around and let it down.
