Xie Ling laughed and decided not to tell him about the imperial seal for the time being. "Okay, I know. Don't worry, as long as Gu Wei and I are here, we will never let you and your family fall into danger. By the way, does your sister know about these things in your family?"
Shi Yue shook his head. "Not only my sister, but my mother doesn't know either. Family skills have always been passed down to men, not women."
Xie Ling nodded.
This phenomenon was very common in ancient times.
She didn't say much, so she asked clearly and left.
He walked to the door frame and turned back, "If you have nothing to do, you can go talk to Fengjian Qingli."
Shi Yue was a little stunned, but still nodded stupidly, "Okay."
Xie Ling felt that Shi Yue's personality was a little too isolated and she hoped that he could integrate into the public and have a few friends.
On the way back to the study, Xie Ling kept thinking about the problem.
The conversation with Shi Yue gave her two pieces of information.
First, there were forces within the seven kingdoms that knew of the existence of the Zhou dynasty families and wanted to force these families to serve them.
But it is still unclear who is behind this force and how much information they have on the Zhou Dynasty family.
Therefore, just in case, Fengjian Qingli must bring all his family members over to take care of them!
Second, the rumors about the jade seal are true, and these families are indeed loyal to the jade seal, but Xie Ling’s guess is also true. After so many years, some families must have become disloyal and no longer loyal to the jade seal.
Therefore, the existence of the imperial seal must not be exposed, so as to avoid giving rise to unnecessary clues.
Xie Ling did not dare to rest for a moment and hurried to find Fengjian Qingli and told him about the Shi family.
Feng Jianqingli's face became worse and worse after hearing this. "The thing that grandpa was most worried about has finally happened. Back then, my grandpa told us that we must not leave the mountains and must conceal our identities. Now I know what he meant."
Xie Ling looked solemn.
"To be on the safe side, go find General Wu, bring two hundred elite soldiers and twenty carriages, and bring all your family members here."
"good."
After Fengjian Qingli answered, his tone became more and more anxious, and he wished he could go home right then and there.
Xie Ling comforted:
"Your family has always lived in seclusion in the mountains, and the route to get in is quite complicated, so it should be fine."
Fengjian Qingli sighed.
"I hope so."
That night, Fengjian Qingli led his elite soldiers and left with a carriage carrying dry food.
The weather was very cold, so Xie Ling also prepared a lot of coal for the fleet.
———
In the blink of an eye, it is already mid-October.
Sinan and Canglan's poultry business is developing very well. Now they have no shortage of poultry. Not only that, the chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle and sheep in the fences are all of high quality. They are not only delicious but also have strong survival ability.
The children were provided with an egg a day, and the people could occasionally eat meat.
When she just got up that day, Xie Ling felt that the window was a little bright. There was plenty of light in the house, illuminating the whole room. She covered her eyes with her hands and it took her a while to get used to it.
I opened half of the window and saw that it was snowing.
A dazzling white, scorching, covered the sky and the earth. The courtyard and the eaves were all white. The snowflakes were still falling, like goose feathers, so dense that people's vision was blurred and they could not see clearly what was in the distance.
It snowed in October... There will definitely be a snowstorm this year, and I don’t know how long it will last...
Xie Ling closed the window and quickly entered the space to check her food reserves.
All of these grains were brought from the capital, and their quality was mixed. About one-third of them had been eaten in the past few days. Together with sweet potatoes and potatoes, it would be more than enough to get through the winter.
Xie Ling put on a pair of deerskin waterproof boots, put on a bright red cloak with a fur collar, and walked into the snow holding an umbrella.
As soon as she stepped in, Xie Ling was stunned.
The snow is too thick, it’s almost up to my knees!
I probably stepped on empty air just now and almost fell, but it doesn't hurt since I fell on the snow.
Picking up the broom beside her, Xie Ling swept a path and then slowly walked out.
The snow kept falling and the sky and the earth were covered in white.
The children were happy, some were making snowmen, some were having snowball fights, they were feeling novel and excited, they were running around the streets wearing colorful clothes.
At this time, the school bell had already rung. The teacher who rang the bell stood next to the tall bell, almost like a snowman. After seeing Xie Ling, he shouted across the vast snow and wind, "Master Xie, there are not enough students in class today. Do you still want to have the class?"
Xie Ling trotted over and said, "No, no, it's snowing too hard. Those who are here don't go back, just stay here first. For those who are not here, forget it. Teachers, just take a rest."
It was snowing so heavily that the sound seemed light as a feather to people's ears.
When the students heard that there would be no classes, they were so happy that they almost jumped up and started chatting with each other. Some of them who wanted to have fun even ran out to play in the snow.
The entire Sinan Changshou turned into a vast expanse of white. People in every household opened their doors and windows, looking curiously at the flying snowflakes and the snow-white mountains in the distance.
This was the first time that people saw snowflakes not with fear but with joy.
But it is different in other counties.
The heavy snow blocked the roads, and migrant workers could only sigh as they looked at the white road.
The mountains are difficult to climb and all the animals are hiding. Some people originally wanted to go to the mountains to dig some wild vegetables and hunt game, but now they can only stay at home and cannot go anywhere.
A heavy snowfall made people's already difficult lives even worse.
Except for Sinan and Chang Shou, almost the entire Lingnan was complaining and fearful.
Complaining about God's cruelty and fearing for future survival.
