Jinbao said he understood and went back to work.
Chi Xingyue went back to the house, washed her face, changed her clothes, and went to the big kitchen to eat.
Today is Double Ninth Festival. Even though we had crabs during the day, we will still have a big meal in the evening.
The old man showed off his off-white wool sweater again. Chi Xingyue even asked, "Grandfather, do you want me to dye it?"
The old man waved his hand: "Wait until I get tired of wearing it!"
Chi Xingyue nodded and concentrated on eating.
I stayed in Rongsiyuan until very late before returning to the house with my parents-in-law and husband.
Baozhu and Erzhu boiled some hot water and brought it to the side room. After a quick wash, the master of Qingfeng Courtyard went to bed.
Chi Xingyue nestled in Ling Jiheng's arms, sinking her consciousness into space.
He took a look at the newly appeared corridor and hall of Nanshan Village Police Station and then left.
As the night deepened, a sudden wind started blowing outside the window. Dark clouds obscured the bright moon, and the sky became gloomy.
The people who were sleeping huddled in their quilts, subconsciously ignoring the creaking of doors and windows beside their ears.
Tiny snowflakes floated in the sky, but the moment they fell to the ground, they were picked up by the wind and blown everywhere.
Chi Xingyue felt that it was particularly cold today. She had fallen asleep but was woken up by the cold.
The key point is that my consciousness has awakened, but my body has not. I want to open my eyelids, but I find that I can't move at all.
Chi Xingyue even suspected that she had been dreaming the entire time. But her feet were so cold that she subconsciously pressed herself against Ling Jiheng.
The icy cold temperature made Ling Jiheng shudder. The usually alert man opened his eyes instantly, only then did he notice the difference.
The temperature has dropped, and it has dropped significantly.
Those who have tiled houses and quilts will at most suffer from the cold, but their lives will not be in danger.
But those who are poor and don’t have a fire are prone to catching colds, and in serious cases they may even freeze to death.
He gently woke Chi Xingyue and asked her to go to the space to rest. Then he got dressed and got out of bed, waking up the sleeping people of the Ling family.
Make a fire and heat the kang. Even if it doesn’t keep you warm tonight, you won’t get cold.
We had stored so much firewood before, wasn't it just for this day? Snowflakes were flying outside, and soon, Ling Jiheng's hair had turned white.
When the old man and the old lady were woken up, they sneezed violently.
The two of them huddled in the quilt, sniffing their noses, thinking that if they weren't woken up, they would probably have a fever by tomorrow.
Ling Jiheng heard the noise in the house and asked Xiaohe to make ginger soup to drive away the cold for the two of them.
Then he took people to the village, beating drums and gongs to wake up those who were sleeping.
"It's snowing, get up, light a fire and put on more clothes. Pay attention to fire prevention and ventilation!" to avoid gas poisoning again.
He knocked from the east end of the village to the west end, and from the south end to the north end, and Erzhu's voice was almost hoarse.
Everyone in Qingshan Village cursed and swore, wondering which bastard had disturbed their sweet dreams.
As soon as he woke up, he found something wrong and hurried out to check.
I found that the originally bright and sparse night sky had disappeared, and was replaced by dark clouds covering the city, with wind and snow drifting.
The wind blew and my body trembled, and goose bumps appeared on my arms.
He hurried to light a fire, wondering: "Is there really such a severe cold?" He couldn't help but regret not listening to the Ling family and stocking up on firewood.
I don’t know when the snow will stop. If it lasts for three to five days, or ten days or half a month, it will be troublesome.
By the way, what did Cao Dashan say? The Ling family was growing vegetables in the house.
People are so rich and are still actively resisting the severe cold. They can't continue to be so bad.
When it gets light, I'll find some wooden planks, nail them together, and use them as flower pots. I'll also sow some vegetable seeds and wait for the harvest.
Ling Jiheng had no idea what these people were thinking. After completing his mission, he was about to go home, but was stopped by Song Lizheng.
"Second son of the Ling family, I wonder if your uncle would be so shameless as to borrow a cow and a person from you?"
"Uncle Village Chief wants to..."
"Go to Dahe Village and Shanghe Village and, if possible, notify the other village heads. The temperature has dropped so dramatically, I'm afraid most people haven't reacted yet."
Ling Jiheng nodded: "Okay, I'll let Ling Yi and Ling San go with you."
Song Lizheng went back to his room, put on a light cotton jacket, and followed the others back to the Ling family mansion. He entered through the back door and didn't disturb the old man and the old lady at all.
The Ling family's servants worked quickly, and soon they had the kang lit. However, since they couldn't sleep tonight, they placed a charcoal brazier in the master's room.
Chi Xingyue originally wanted to go into the space to rest, but Ling Jiheng didn't come back, and she felt insecure.
What if someone knocks on the door or breaks in and she is not in the room? Wouldn’t it be difficult to explain?
So, Chi Xingyue just went into the space, filled a hot water bottle, and came out.
Put the hot water bottle on the soles of your feet. Soon, the soles of your feet will be warm and you won’t feel uncomfortable.
My consciousness sank into space, and I realized it was 3:30 a.m. If it was a sunny day, dawn would be in two hours at most.
But now, I'm afraid it will take until six or seven o'clock before I can see it.
Fortunately, Ling Jiheng came back without her having to wait for long.
He stood at the door, flapping his clothes as if covered in snow, until there was no more snow on his body, and then he stepped into the house.
In stark contrast to the cold wind outside, it wasn't that cold even though there was no fire in the house.
Chi Xingyue lit the oil lamp, got out of bed, and closed the door. He released a basin of warm water from the space for him to wash his hands, and handed him a cup of ginger soup to warm him up.
Ling Jiheng felt warm in his heart. He took care of himself and went to bed after getting rid of the coldness in his body.
Without mentioning anything about the village, he went on a date with Zhou Gong holding the little fairy.
Chi Xingyue closed her eyes for a moment and fell into a deep sleep. This time, she was not woken by the cold, but slept until dawn.
In the early morning, many people came out of their houses feeling dazed.
It was really cold, but there was no snow to be seen, as if everything that happened last night was an illusion.
Careful people found that the cracks in the corners of the wall were moister than usual. This was probably because the ground temperature was not high enough, and the wind blew the snow to the leeward side, where it melted quickly.
The fact that the snow fell without a trace during the Frost Descent was quite miraculous. Many people have increased their faith in the predictions of extreme cold.
The next morning, I went into the mountains to look for yams or collect firewood. In short, I kept myself busy.
Jinbao and the others did the same, setting off right after their morning exercises. The masters hadn't slept well last night, so they hadn't invited them to join them.
In comparison, without the burden of the old man and the old lady, Jinbao and Yinbao can collect more supplies.
Just as they entered the mountains, they killed several sika deer.
It was also because they appeared at an unfortunate time. As soon as they showed their heads, they were seen by Jinbao.
Several people surrounded them quietly and finally arrested the three adults and two children with the most gentle means.
Tie up the limbs and carry it home. Venison is a very nutritious food. You could say that the harvest in just one hour is enough to last two days.
Yinbao knew that Chi Xingyue liked rare things, so he suggested sending the deer to Qingfengyuan to be raised.
Jinbao had no objection, but would the master agree? If he found them too noisy, it would be troublesome. He should go back and ask for clarification.
Chi Xingyue heard a "yo yo" sound in the yard and opened her eyes curiously. She found that the room was not as cold as last night, so she quickly got dressed and got out of bed.
