There are no years in the mountains, but there are thousands of years in the world.

Sujia Village has changed a lot.

Every household built a red brick and tile house.

Every household has a deep well in its yard.

Every household dug two large cellars indoors and outdoors.

There was a whole cellar full of grain stored in the indoor cellar, all of which was refined rice.

The outdoor cellar stores vegetables that can be stored for a long time, such as radishes, carrots, cabbage, potatoes, and sweet potatoes.

Of course, if there is not enough food, potatoes and sweet potatoes can still be used as staple food.

This is the result of the joint efforts of Su Qingshi's family.

So, older ginger is spiciest.

After Su Qingshi knew Su Xiaoya's worries, he didn't say anything, but asked the villagers to dig a deep well in the yard.

Then, he asked the villagers to dig a large cellar in the yard and under the storage room.

Then they began to stockpile food and vegetables in a blatant manner.

People all have a herd mentality.

When the villagers earned enough money, they naturally learned from Su Qingshi - digging wells, digging cellars, and storing food.

It's that simple.

Su Xiaoya only had a big "admirer".

Of course, the Su family also bought a lot of food from other towns and provincial capitals for the several caves chosen by Su Xiaoya.

In addition to sufficient reserves, every household in Sujia Village has another thing - animal meat.

Cured wild boar meat, cured sausage, cured pheasant, cured yellow lamb leg, smoked wild boar meat, smoked sausage, smoked roe deer meat...

As the twelfth lunar month approaches, Sujia Village closes the mountain.

The person who was most touched in the whole Sujia Village was Old Lady Zhao. Her health and spirit were getting better day by day, which showed that she had encountered great fortune.

In this life, everything is different.

She shouldn't make the same mistake again. A faint hope rose in Mrs. Zhao's heart.

Sujia Village is different now.

Due to the last time bandits broke into the village and robbed, every household in Sujia Village now has a red brick and tile house, and a large circle of stone walls were built in the village.

It is fifteen feet high and ten feet wide.

All these stones were mined by villagers from the mountains.

When building the wall, the young and strong people were responsible for laying the wall, while the old men, women and children were responsible for carrying the stones.

There are two-story turrets at the four corners of the wall, with four walls 1.5 meters high and a 2.5-meter-high ceiling made of logs. There are bamboo curtains hanging down to block wind, rain and snow.

The second floor of the corner tower is obviously used as a sentry tower, while the first floor is used to store long sticks.

The public is not allowed to stockpile knives, guns, swords, halberds or other weapons or iron tools.

There is no restriction on iron pots, kitchen knives, spatulas, shovels, hoes, sickles, etc.

There are only two gates left in the wall, one at the entrance of the village, connected to the main road to the town, and one at the back of the village, connected to the mountains.

The gate was made of a row of wooden mortise and tenon joints that were as thick as a man's arms. No one except the Su family could move it.

Sujia Village is really different now.

Every day, the clan leader and village chief would climb up the "wall" along the slope to inspect it, then stroll to the second floor of the corner tower and stand on the watchtower to look out into the distance.

This feeling is so wonderful.

Of course, the most impressive thing in Sujia Village, besides Su Qingshi's house, is the school.

The Su family studies this, this has been the dream that the clan leader and the village chief have been dreaming of for decades.

The classrooms are decorated with a long row of blue bricks and black tiles, and each classroom has large floor-to-ceiling mahogany windows on both the north and south sides. If it weren't for the ability to cut down three-meter-long mahogany in the mountains, it would be impossible to make such magnificent floor-to-ceiling windows.

Su Xiaoya also dug up many bamboos from the deep mountains and planted them in clusters outside the north window, making it look particularly quiet and peaceful.

It is better to eat without meat than to live without bamboo.

The favorite thing for scholars is bamboo.

Outside the south window, two banana trees are planted in a corner, and cannas of different colors are planted at different heights around them.

Su Xiaoya could not forget the poetic and picturesque scene of rain hitting banana leaves, and she would certainly try to replicate it if she had the chance.
