Started as a mute girl? I prospered in the lean years

Jiang Huaixu asked Jiang Zhou, who was sitting on the threshold and didn't know what he was thinking, "Cousin Zhou, why are you here? Where is your father?"

"I was called by Li Zheng early in the morning, and I haven't come back yet." Jiang Zhou said with a depressed expression.

Jiang Huaixu knew what Jiang Zhou was depressed about. Since her last suggestion, Jiang Zhengmao had kept Jiang Zhou and Jiang Erlang together every day, and asked Jiang Erlang to teach him a lot, which was considered a high expectation.

"Oh." Jiang Huaixu responded. After thinking about it again, he finally said, "Uncle may be back. Don't let him catch you running away here."

Jiang Zhou stood up suddenly and looked around in a panic. As he looked, he asked, "Are you lying to me?"

His father didn't know who he was because he listened to someone's slander, so he detained him all day long and kicked his ass whenever he saw him outside.

Mother took away her money, and father became more and more strict. His life was even more miserable than Jiang Sanlang!

"If you don't believe me, I'll throw you away!" Jiang Huaixu said no more to him and turned back the way he came.

I looked at the newly arrived refugees from a distance. There were about a hundred people in this group, and they looked even worse than when they first arrived. It was such a cold day that some of them were even naked, and the children inside were freezing. There were frostbites on his hands and face, and he looked extremely thin. The legs are so thin that they seem to break if you take a step.

Among the refugees, the man who spoke to Li Zheng and Jiang Zhengmao was a young man. He looked poor and thin, but when he spoke, he was neither humble nor arrogant. Just by looking at his appearance, you could tell he was polite.

The new refugees were resettled in the same way as Jiang Huaixu and his party. After Li Zheng left early, it became Jiang Zhengmao's job.

Jiang Huaixu looked at the refugees for a while, then looked at the sky, then didn't stay outside any longer.

"Second cousin, is it going to rain?" Jiang Rong asked Jiang Huaixu in a childish voice.

Jiang Huaixu poked Jiang Rong's cheek and said with a smile: "It's going to snow, not rain. Snow~flower~"

It rarely snowed in Huai'an Prefecture in the past, and Jiang Rong didn't have a clear understanding of snow.

Jiang Rong tilted her head and thought for a while, then ran around happily in the yard, "Let's go to the flowers!"

As I shouted, the snowflakes fell down, and it looked like a heavy snowfall.

Jiang Huaixu took Jiang Rong back to the house, and shouted to Shi Tao and others who were still building the shed: "Uncle Fugui, Brother Shi, it's snowing! We can wait until the weather clears up, and we won't miss it for a day or two!"

"Just a little bit..."

Seeing that everyone was unwilling to leave, Jiang Huaixu had no choice but to say: "I see the snow is heavy. What if the building collapses again? Let's wait and see!"

Jiang Fugui and others thought it was reasonable, so they went home.

After it was completely dark, the carriage that went to the county town came back in the wind and snow, and only Jiang Boliang, Qi Dafu, and Li Ergou were there.

Jiang Boliang patted the fallen snow on his body and said, "Second Grandma and the others are staying in the county. It's snowing heavily, and it's not convenient to come back."

The whole family's worries finally dropped.

"Dad, are you hungry? Liniang has already prepared some food." Jiang Dalang asked.

"What are you hungry for? Not hungry." Jiang Boliang waved his hand and asked, "Why did I see a fire in the empty house in the south? Who came to the village?"

"The dozen or so newly arrived refugee families looked very poor. It started to snow as soon as they arrived. I don't know if they can make it through the night."

Jiang Boliang thought of the scene when this group of people first arrived, and sighed in his heart, "Give them the tattered bedding that our family has put away and don't want. From now on, we are all from the same village. We will not see each other with our heads down. Let's make friends with them first." good."

Jiang Dalang responded and went to work.

Jiang Boliang looked around and asked Jiang Huaixu: "Where is your second brother?"

"Still burning the midnight oil to read!" Jiang Huaixu said, "I took some pancakes and vegetables for dinner and went into the house. It's not an exaggeration to say that he has a cantilever and a thorn in his butt."

She felt a little guilty when she said this. Jiang Erlang studied so hard because of her. Jiang Erlang didn't have a good teacher, so he relied on himself to learn. She had never studied the Four Books, so she could only find some books for him to read in the mall. This Once I read it, I got out of hand.

Jiang Boliang was happy and worried at the same time, "Reading at night won't make you blind."

"Yes, yes, dad, go talk to the second brother."

Jiang Boliang stood up and was about to leave, then suddenly remembered something and said to his little girl: "Dr. Kang asked me to tell you that shopkeeper Pei intends to let you be the sitting doctor of Qingnang Pavilion..."

Speaking of which, Jiang Boliang is quite proud. Whose daughter can be a doctor at the age of nine like hers?

The only one in the world!

"Shopkeeper Pei has been asking him for a long time. He knows that you are busy. He could delay it for a while before, but now he can't delay it anymore so he asked me to ask you. You can think about it for now, and then I will answer him after you think about it."

Jiang Huaixu is still somewhat interested in being a doctor and the like, as she can earn a lot of points. Unfortunately, she is still busy building a shed and trying to grow peppers, potatoes, etc., and she really can't get away.

"Dad, please help me push it first. I won't go to the county town these days, so I will stay at home."

Jiang Boliang didn't ask any questions and walked out of the main room.

"Second cousin, we've all finished washing. When will you teach us how to read?" Jiang Fu poked her head out of the east room.

"Come here."

The heavy snow had been falling for two days and there was still no sign of stopping. Jiang Huaixu stood at the door and looked at the sky, knowing that this must be another natural disaster. She complained to Fu Tuan: [With constant natural disasters, do you want to drive all the people of this era to death? Will you let me dominate the world by myself then? 】

[Host, please don’t accuse me wrongly. The natural disasters in this era were not caused by me, they were just predictions! Foreknowledge! ! 】

【Can't you tell me? 】

Fu Tuan shook the hair on his head into waves, [Absolutely not. 】

Jiang Huaixu sighed and was about to go into the house to warm himself by the fire, but a figure appeared outside the house.

"Ah."

Jiang Yao was frightened and delighted to see Jiang Huaixu, running stumblingly in the thick snow, and handed the things in her hand to Jiang Huaixu.

Jiang Huaixu looked at it and saw that it was the radishes pickled by his aunt. The pickles she made were delicious and she always brought some. As for why the person who brought them was Jiang Yao, needless to say, it was to gain favor.

I don’t know if she is stupid or smart. When Jiang Zhengmao and Zhao Chunfang asked Jiang Yao to deliver the things to her house, Jiang Yao would personally deliver them. If she refused to give them to others, she would have to find her and deliver them to her.

Jiang Huaixu knew what she meant, it was just to cure her mute disease.

She took the small jar of pickled vegetables and said, "Thanks, go back."

The expectant light in Jiang Yao's eyes dimmed instantly, she responded, turned around and prepared to leave.

"It's not impossible to help you."

Jiang Huaixu's words made her stop immediately and look back with longing.

"But there are conditions. Come to me again tomorrow and discuss it in detail with you."

Jiang Yao nodded hurriedly and almost jumped up with excitement.
