"Thank you, Uncle!"
After saying that, Huang Dani looked at Chen Xiaomai.
"Third sister-in-law, it just so happens that your son Asen likes to eat fish heads, and my son Kang likes to eat fish tails."
"Then you can have the fish head; I want the tail!"
"good!"
While everyone in Chijia'ao was having a lively time and preparing for the pig-slaughtering feast the next day, Chi Qiao and the others, who were already on their way back, were suffering terribly.
I don't know what's wrong with the weather these past two days; it's been really strange.
After the freezing rain finally stopped, a strange wind suddenly started blowing.
To Chi Qiao, this wind was no different from a typhoon entering the country.
Each wave was bigger than the last, sweeping across the rooftops of many people.
If it's thatched, you'll wake up to find the house leaning precariously and the roof gone.
If it's a house with blue tile roof, you'll find that all the roof tiles have been swept away.
They either disappear or fall to the ground and shatter into pieces.
In addition, the weather was cold, and without a roof, drafts came in from all directions, causing many people to catch a cold without any precautions.
Even more so, there were those elderly and frail people who, after catching a cold, could not withstand it and eventually passed away.
However, none of this concerned Chi Qiao, as her group was facing difficulties on their return journey.
First, there's the problem of sleeping outdoors, and second, the wind seems to be working against them, always blowing in their faces.
Trees were frequently uprooted and placed horizontally or vertically along the road.
If it takes only two days to travel from Anping County by horse-drawn carriage under normal circumstances, then during the freezing rain, it takes five or six days.
And this strange wind that's acting against us might take ten days, or even longer.
Therefore, by the time the group arrived at Wangwanli, four days had already passed.
Chi Qing, who was still thinking about his future wife, felt a sudden pang of unease as he looked at the dilapidated Wangwan Village, which had been battered by the wind.
Chi Qiao just wants to go back now, so she wants Chi Qing to get to Yuejia's house as quickly as possible.
Seeing him sitting there dumbfounded on the carriage shaft, he said to Ikeno:
"Boss, why don't you go with Aqing and see what's going on?"
If they're still alive, let them pack up and come with us.
The carriage that Chi Qiao was riding in was driven by Chi Ye, and it was filled with cornmeal.
Yes, corn already existed in this dynasty.
However, Chi Yu and Chi Qiao had never met before, and it was rarely sold in Anping County, so the two sisters did not know about it.
After discovering that there was cornmeal, Chi Qiao asked Qiao to exchange it for more.
Therefore, after she returned, her carriage was driven by Chi Ye and Chi Qing in turns.
Seeing Chi Qing sitting there in a daze, she couldn't stand it anymore and finally spoke up, asking Chi Ye to come along.
Coming to his senses, Chi Qing pursed his lips and followed closely behind Chi Ye toward Wang Qiaoya's house.
Besides the five carts from Chijia'ao that were carrying coal down the mountain, there were also twenty horse-drawn carriages present.
Two of these vehicles belonged to the Zheng County Magistrate's Office.
The remaining eighteen vehicles were mostly carrying goods, all of which were needed by the general store.
Or rather, it is what the entire Chijia'ao community needs.
Besides rice, flour, oil, salt, and other necessities, Chi Qiao put her heart into preparing everything she could think of.
They took some cotton, vegetable seeds, and even some dried seafood.
It can be said that when Chi Qiao returned, she was not only penniless, but also owed Qin Mu ten taels of silver.
These ten taels were mainly spent on writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones.
With the teacher now invited back, the matter of the children of Chijia'ao going to school must also be put on the agenda.
Then you can't do without ink, paper, and inkstone.
Not all of them are for the young men, but the teacher must have some for his daily use.
