Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

Covering yourself with a quilt and sleeping at night is the best way to reduce fever without taking medicine.

Mu Xi's fever was not high. When he took his temperature before going to bed, it was only 38 degrees.

Zhao Yeqing was a little worried. He got up in the middle of the night and went upstairs quietly to confirm whether his fever was too high.

When he walked to the bed, he found that his head was covered with sweat. The sweat was soaked by the cold air and was cold. Zhao Yeqing hurriedly used a towel to wipe his sweat.

There is no need to measure this, it must be a high fever.

There was also strong liquor at home, so I poured some out and wiped his chest, arms, and soles of his feet...

When it was almost morning, Zhao Yeqing went downstairs to sleep in a daze after seeing his breathing gradually calming down.

When Mu Xi woke up, he smelled the faint smell of alcohol in the room. He slept so deeply last night that reality and dreams were mixed together, and he thought he was dreaming.

But sleeping deeply also has its advantages. Last night, the fever probably reached thirty-nine degrees. When I woke up, I felt like a normal person. At most, I felt a little tired after illness.

Zhao Yeqing had two dark circles under his eyes and was very envious of Mu Xi's physical fitness.

Fortunately, it was not transmitted to Zhao Yeqing. One of them did not sleep well, and the other just recovered from a serious illness. After breakfast, Zhao Yeqing went back to her small bunk to catch up on her sleep.

Mu Xi changed all the bedding upstairs. The sheets, quilts and pillows were all covered in sweat from last night.

As soon as I threw the bedding into the washing machine, the sun came out at noon, so I took out the quilt to dry it too.

Now there is no quilt on the bed, replaced by the mattress that was moved back from the tourist area. The two of them also rebuilt the bed frame, reinforced it with several pieces of wood, and added support pillars underneath.

Zhao Yeqing felt that a few beams were enough. Mu Xi gave Zhao Yeqing a meaningful look.

"Not enough."

Fine.

At twelve o'clock at noon, Zhao Yeqing woke up after catching up on his sleep. Mu Xi, who had been outside in the sun for a while, felt lazy all over. After the two of them had something to eat, Zhao Yeqing was pulled by Mu Xi for a walk outside.

"It's sunny today and there's no wind. It's good for your health to get some sunshine."

Zhao Yeqing was a little reluctant at first. He had just woken up and was sore all over. After being dragged out to bask in the sun, the sun shone warmly on his body, which made him even more sore.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I slowly regained my energy.

The two climbed up a gentle slope and sat on the top of a hill looking at the vast meadow in front of them.

The meadow is different in winter this year. The previous winter was cold, but at this time not much grass is left on the meadow. The short turf has just withered a little and was stepped into the mud. Looking at it, Going to the meadow is full of exposed yellow soil.

In the winter of the past two years, the meadow was still green, and the temperature in winter could be above 20 degrees. People who were not familiar with it would not be able to detect the difference between the meadow in winter and summer.

This year is different. Zhao Yeqing has never seen the normal winter meadow before the ground cracking, but she guesses it should be similar to now. The yellow-green turf is mixed with deep and shallow, and a small-scale meadow can be seen in the distance. The deer are feeding.

The sunshine was neither dry nor dazzling. It was so soft that it seemed to shine on the meadow through a layer of milky white mesh. The fragrance of grass and trees penetrated her nose, calm and gentle, and her energy that she had just cheered up gradually weakened.

Zhao Yeqing squinted his eyes and yawned again. His arms were drooped on Mu Xi's shoulders, and half of his body weight was hanging on him.

"Can't walk a little."

Mu Xi, who had just recovered from a serious illness, carried someone and carried a heavy load for one kilometer back home. Zhao Yeqing woke up as soon as she got home. There was no sunlight in the room and the temperature was lower than outside. The unexpected cold made her shiver.

Mu Xi felt that he had completely recovered, and his body's original tiredness had regained its former vitality under the passive exercise just now.

"Do you want to sleep a little longer? I'll go out and check on the condition of the charcoal kiln."

The fired charcoal has been in the brick kiln for three days, and you can open it today to see the results.

Zhao Yeqing didn't feel tired either. He didn't want Mu Xi to have to do so much work just after he recovered from his illness, so he hurried over to help.

The soil that sealed the opening and the cellar door was pulled open, and now the light was shining through, and you could clearly see the completely carbonized black charcoal inside, with a lingering warmth that had not dissipated.

Mu Xi shoveled out the charcoal with a long-handled shovel, and Zhao Yeqing grabbed a piece. The temperature was not scalding, and after turning it over and over, he saw that it was carbonized and there were almost no charcoal heads.

"This is much faster than the earthen kiln. It also takes three days. One furnace of this thing can be as busy as the previous earthen kiln three or four times."

Mu Xi did not expect to be so successful, "You still have a way to burn it this time. According to the current temperature, it is estimated to be enough for us to use for three years."

The charcoal was shoveled into a sack, and the two of them worked together to carry it to the breeding basement.

By the way, I went to see if there was any water seepage in the small tunnel I dug earlier.

I bent down and walked forward. It took only ten minutes to get out of the tunnel. There was no water seepage along the way. At most, I walked to the middle section. I could smell a slightly moist earthy smell, and the exposed skin was also wet. You can feel the slightest chill.

The two of them walked back, and when they were a third of the way there, Zhao Yeqing suddenly stopped.

This was the point where the two of them had to turn a corner when they encountered underground water.

"What's wrong?" Mu Xi paused when he heard the footsteps behind him, and turned around to ask.

Zhao Yeqing looked past Mu Xi and looked forward from the entrance to the basement. When she reached this corner, she would lose sight. She had an idea -

"How about we think differently?"

The two returned to the room. Zhao Yeqing handed Mu Xi her new drawing. After she made her thoughts clear, Mu Xi looked at her in surprise.

"You can't tell, you still have these two hands."

The tunnel renovation plan was launched, but this project was larger than the two men's previous project of digging the entire tunnel, and it took half a month longer to complete.

The temperature during this period has become very stable, with the lowest temperature reaching about 11 degrees. Zhao Yeqing estimates that the temperature will not get any lower. According to the solar term, it is already snowing heavily. Even if the temperature drops again, it will only be after the Little Big Cold.

The cow successfully gave birth to a calf, a little sister, who is strong and strong.

The two of them also successfully drank the soothing hot milk in this cool winter.

Zhao Yeqing stretched out his reddish tongue and licked off a ring of milky white on the side of his mouth. Thinking of the transformed tunnel, his eyes were a little unreasonably excited.

"This time, I will sharpen my spear until it is as sharp as clay!"
