The days passed very quickly because of the busyness.

When Yunling got up early that morning, she discovered that the kumquat trees in the yard were covered with a thin layer of white frost and snow, and the air suddenly became a bit colder.

Only then did she remember that today should be a heavy snow day during the 24th solar term.

This winter doesn't seem to be cold at all.

That is to say, it has been a little cooler since the beginning of winter. The Tang family has been traveling south, but it really doesn't feel very cold. Her clothes have thickened little by little. It was only today that she suddenly realized that winter had already begun. .

During breakfast, Mrs. Wu said lovingly to Yun Ling: "It snowed a little last night, and it's much colder today. I'll go to your Aunt Xiang's room and try on the thick coat. If it doesn't suit me, I'll try it again." Change it. If the snow falls in the south, the cold of winter will come, and it will get colder day by day. You need to wear more clothes."

She was running around on the road without paying attention, and suddenly she found that her granddaughter seemed to have a seizure again. Fortunately, when she, Shen Qixiang and Qingdai were making coats for their family in the past few days, Qingdai reminded her, and then she was enlarged again. An inch, otherwise I might not be able to wear it anymore.

Yunling smiled and nodded, then asked: "Grandma, how many things have you made for me?"

"There is not enough time. We are only making one piece for each family member to wear first so as not to freeze. We will make a few more pieces for you later."

Nowadays, there are many people in the family, so it takes some time to just measure the size. In addition, it also takes time to cut and sew the cotton batting.

"Then, can all the clothes on the back of me be made of men's clothes? Don't embroider so many delicate flowers for me. I'm afraid of getting damaged when I run around wearing them." Yunling said coquettishly.

Even though the family's clothes are now made of the most common fabrics, the things Wu, Shen Qixiang and Sister Qingdai made for her are always the most exquisite and beautiful, and also the most time-consuming, which is the piece prepared for her. The handkerchief must be carefully embroidered with flowers on one corner of the handkerchief. If she didn't think it was in the way, Shen Qingdai would have wanted to add beads to her. She really took the trouble to think of various ways to give it to her.

As for the clothes she wore when going up and down the mountain, they would get scratched and damaged by accident. Not only wasting their efforts, but it also made them tired and had to think of ways to repair them without leaving any trace. It was really troublesome.

Mrs. Wu stretched out her hand and tapped her smooth forehead, "They've all gone home, so just let them do their work. What are you, a little girl, doing running around? Are you afraid that your grandmother will be worried at home?"

Today, Yunling has not yet applied yellow powder, and her face is as fair and smooth as a porcelain doll. She really can't bear to let the little girl have no time for this family.

Yunling put her arms around Wu's waist and rubbed her heart, "Grandma, I like to run out and look at the things in our house. I like days like this, and I also want to earn a lot of money... .”

Wu patted her little head and said, "What do you need so much money for? Isn't there a stable job at Mingcui Tower now? We can't starve to death with this, so we don't have to work so hard."

If it didn't work out, she and Shen Qixiang would spend several years embroidering a few large pieces, but Ling'er wouldn't be hungry after all.

Yunling shook her head, "Grandma, you can do many things with money, you can..."

Ms. Cao came out of the kitchen with a pot of steamed buns. When she heard what the two said, she joked: "I can also save a dowry for myself."

Yunling laughed, "I not only want to save mine, but also Fu'er and Sister Qingdai's."

When the word "dowry" was mentioned, she was calm and generous without any embarrassment, and she didn't look like a young girl at all.

Tang Zifu, who was behind Ms. Cao, also nodded and said, "Yes, Sister A and I will save together."

Ms. Cao, who was planning to make a joke, choked.

Come on, these two haven’t figured it out yet!

On the contrary, Mrs. Wu began to feel sad. In a blink of an eye, the children had reached the age of proposing marriage, and they would be one year older after the Chinese New Year.

This dowry should really be prepared.

Yunling pulled her and shook her, "Grandma, grandma, good grandma, please make me some men's clothes."

Tang Zifu listened and shouted for men's clothes. The two of them clung to Wu like monkeys.

Mrs. Cao took the steamed buns to the next door. When she turned around, she heard Yunling saying, "Auntie, it's getting cold. From tomorrow onwards, you can add a pot of radish and bone soup to the food of the clay-tile team."

"okay!"

The workshop next door started work a few days ago.

Originally, the Tang family only had to prepare lunch for the workers, but since the workshop was required to be completed before the Chinese New Year, they were in a hurry. The Hai family and his son led the masonry team to work early every day and did not leave until dark.

Yunling understood that they only had dry food for breakfast when they arrived early in the morning, so she took the initiative to bear the breakfast meal. Later, thinking that they would be hungry and rushing home after dusk, she also contracted the dinner meal.

When the masonry and tile team saw that the Tang family had contracted three meals a day, they actually provided snacks later on and worked even harder. Even after eating in a hurry at night, they had to do more work, which was considered a return favor.

Ms. Cao is the person in your Tang family who takes on the job of delivering food. She is very motivated now because Yunling promised her that as long as she does well, she will buy her a silver bracelet during the Chinese New Year.

She went out with the steaming steamed buns and turned left. When she was about to step into the yard next door, she was suddenly stopped by a group of people.

"Dongyan, what are you doing?"

Ms. Cao is a third-year-old at home, and her maiden name is Dongyan. She has not heard this name for a long time, and she was a little confused for a while.

When he looked up, he saw his elder brother Cao Donghu looking at him with a frown, and his second brother standing behind him.

"Big brother! Second brother!"

Mrs. Cao was a little excited. Since she went to Ruidu, she only came back once during the year to celebrate her father's birthday. It had been a long time since she had seen her parents.

"What are you doing with the steamed buns?" Cao Donghu's face was very ugly.

"Bring breakfast to the masonry team." Ms. Cao answered honestly.

Then he asked: "Brother, why are you here? I was thinking of going to Dabei Village to see you in a few days..."

Before she could finish her words, Cao Donghu sternly interrupted: "Your family didn't hire the eldest brother and the second brother to build a house, but instead hired people from Haizhu Village to do the work? Do you take me and your eldest brother seriously?" "

While he was talking, he happened to catch a glimpse of the Wu family who was going out again, and he sneered again and again: "You don't think you take our Cao family seriously anymore?"

Naturally, this was said to Mrs. Wu.

Logically speaking, Wu's seniority was higher than his own, so he shouldn't have spoken to Wu like that, but he was really angry.

Especially when he knew that the Tang family had hired people from Haizhu Village to build a house, and actually paid a total of eighteen taels of wages, his eyes turned red when he heard about it.

Thinking about beating Tang Yuanzhi and humiliating him that night, I regretted it endlessly.

They were angry at first, but being slapped by other people in the village made the flames ignited, so the two brothers ignored them and came to question them.
