Many people have been lazy for a while, but now they have suffered disaster.

After living in the village for so many years, he couldn't stand by and watch.

Mr. Tang took a few men from his family with him.Those who left early and returned late helped the families harvest sweet potatoes and potatoes from the snow.

It's just that these sweet potatoes and potatoes have been frostbitten, so they must be eaten quickly, otherwise they will go bad if they melt.

People at home trek through heavy snow every day?

This heavy snow has been falling for a day and a night, and the snow outside is almost knee-deep.

The world seemed to turn white all at once.

Tang Xiaofu was worried that Mr. Tang and the others would be prone to frostbite after being outside for a long time in the ice and snow, so he bought some tubes of chilblain ointment in the space.

It was purposely packed in a small white porcelain bottle, and when the men at home came back, the brothers of Li's group hurriedly boiled a large pot of hot water, and Tang Xiaofu deliberately soaked some mugwort leaves in it to scald everyone's feet.

Tang Xiaofu made a special trip to Chai's house in the heavy snow, and asked Brother Qin for Qu Han's prescription. Every day, he boiled ginger and brown sugar over high fire for Zhao Xiangbei and the others to drink.

Several people sat side by side in the hall soaking their feet, and each of them held a large bowl of ginger and brown sugar water in their hands, sizzling and blushing.

Tang Xiaofu sat by Zhao Xiangbei's lap, looking at the frostbite on his toe, his eyes were slightly red with distress.

"This frostbite needs to be wiped quickly, and more attention should be paid, otherwise it will be so uncomfortable every year."

Zhao Xiangbei couldn't see Tang Xiaofu's slightly red eyes, he quickly pulled him up, and said with a big grin, "This small wound is nothing. It will be fine after two days of treatment. Don't be sad."

Tang Xiaofu until Zhao Xiangbei had always been careless towards himself and didn't care much about these small wounds, so he glared at him angrily.

"Soak it well, and I'll give you medicine in a while."

The fat son hadn't seen his father for a long time. Now that he saw Zhao Xiangbei, he threw himself on Zhao Xiangbei, not to mention kissing the little fat boy.

Zhao Xiangbei lovingly hugged her in his arms, and sat in his heart. The father and son were having so much fun, the room also changed, and the giggles of the children could be heard from time to time, which made people feel happy.

Tang Xiaofu took out a few small porcelain bottles and gave them to the group brother Wang Yi and Li Shi respectively.

"This is some tube of chilblain medicine I bought before. I wanted to save it for winter, but it just happened to be right now. After soaking in hot water, apply a thin layer on the wound and wrap it with a white cloth, and use it for a few days It should be fine."

Now that it is snowing heavily outside, the road leading to the county will not be clear for a while. Neither Tang Xiaofu's shop nor Tang Ji Braised Pork are delivering goods there.

Fortunately, Tang Xiaofu bought a lot of cold clothes and firewood in the empress building.

Tang Xiaofu intentionally let Tang Lao Er build a big heated kang, so that the two brothers surnamed Gu could live a warm enough winter.

Wang Yi carefully took the ointment, and saw that Boss Tang wiped his feet with his hands after soaking, and didn't dislike it, so he took his feet in his arms and applied them carefully.

While painting the frostbite on his feet, he said with distress: "When the village harvests every year, there are always a few families that are dragged to the end and let everyone help him finish it. Only this village has a strong labor force to help those people. Before the family's work, I heard Xue Momo yelling, complaining that the village didn't give them food to survive the winter!"

Mrs. Li also applied chilblain ointment on Mr. Tang's legs, and curled her lips when she heard this.

"Then the one from Xue's family is a lazy eater who fell into the eyes of money. A while ago, he sold a jar of grain in the family, but he got the money and even made a pair of gold hairpins. Don't mention it in the village. Show off. Now that I have been learned, I will cry poor again."

After all, Mr. Tang was getting old, and when Nian walked, he also suffered from some chronic ailments in his legs. It was freezing cold now, and after working for so many days, his legs and feet would inevitably feel uncomfortable.

He kept tapping on his right leg. Seeing Tang Xiaofu, he said with some distress: "Father, your leg has been healed with great difficulty. If you go to the field tomorrow, let the eldest brother, second brother, and Xiang Bei go. You don't want to go there. I'll go to Chai's house tomorrow and ask brother Qin, what can I do for your old cold legs. "

Mr. Tang shook his head cheerfully while holding the cigarette pot.

"They all belong to the folks in the village. How can we just sit idly by and ignore this kind of disaster? I'm not afraid of my legs. Those wolf fur knee pads I brought back from the north last winter are so comfortable to wear."

The old man has always attached great importance to affection, and he has a deep friendship with the village, so Tang Xiaofu can't persuade him.

Boss Tang over there sighed when he heard the old man's words and said: "Father, there are only potatoes left from Li Dezhu's family tomorrow. There are not many. We can finish it with a few of us. You can rest at home. If you can't, you can accompany Fu My brother went up to the mountain to see what happened to the fish pond and fruit trees, and the fish were all frozen to death after the heavy snowfall."

Mr. Tang also knew the seriousness of the matter when he heard the words, so he nodded.

"That's all right, Brother Tomorrow Fu, I'll go up the mountain with you to have a look. After all, it's Captain Xiao's property, the reward of eating the king, and the matter of being loyal to the king."

Tang Xiaofu reacted abruptly when he heard the words. In order to make things logical, he hid it from his family members.

He said that those fruit trees and fish ponds in the back mountain belonged to Xiao Duwei's family, so I can't say much about it.

But following Mr. Tang to the back mountain, it would be good to have someone to take care of him.

Mrs. Li took out some torn white cloth strips from the house, wrapped Mr. Tang's frostbite, and said to Tang Xiaofu: "When cooking these days, I think the wall and the kang are warm. If there are any fruits left on the mountain If you plant a lot, you take it off, let’s slice it and dry it, and eat it in winter, and it will rot in vain when hung on the tree.”

Tang Xiaofu nodded and pointed to the fresh fruits and vegetables, which might not be so delicious after being frozen by the snow. "

Li Shi laughed and stretched out his hand to poke Tang Xiaofu's forehead.

"You've only had a few good days and you've started to go crazy. When you were young, if you could eat a wild fruit from the mountains in winter, even if it was frozen, it would be a good thing. You and your brothers all wanted to eat it. , In the end, your elder brother and second brother let you. You stole a frozen fruit, and it was too cold after eating, and you even had a stomachache."

The whole family burst out laughing when they heard this.

Tang Boss and Tang Lao Er added a few interesting stories about the original owner from time to time.

Tang Xiaofu looked at their faces full of smiles and nostalgia, feeling a little sad in his heart.

Fortunately, the original owner was not replaced by him and disappeared, but exchanged identities with him.

The original owner should also be happy to find a relationship that is equal to each other in the modern age where everyone is equal.

Thinking of this gift, Tang Xiaofu suddenly felt relieved, and smiled. Zhao Xiangbei was always paying attention to his lover's expression, and naturally understood his various sad mood changes. He secretly took Tang Xiaofu's hand, and rubbed it twice in his palm.

"It's all over, and our life will get better and better in the future."

Tang Xiaofu nodded unswervingly that it is getting better and better. Whoever dares to stop his peaceful and beautiful life is his biggest enemy.

Early the next morning, Tang Boss, Tang Lao Er, a native of Henan, went out with the shovel and pickaxe in the house, and a one-person-wide path in front of the Tang house had been cleared out.

Tang Xiaofu and Mr. Tang dressed themselves up to their teeth in the shape of a ball after eating, and went up the mountain from the back door. The fruit trees they passed along the way were all frozen.

Fortunately, during the autumn harvest season, Tang Xiaofu had already anticipated that he would pick a large number of ripe fruits at one time and send them to the shop for a promotion, but it would not cause too much loss, and it would be too distressing.

Most of the rest on the tree now are small ungrown fruits, but Mr. Tang has been farming all his life, and he felt a little distressed when he saw these fruits, so he wanted to go forward and pick them off and put them in the basket behind him.

How dare Tang Xiaofu let Mr. Tang do this kind of work, he hurried forward to pick the fruit.

However, Tang Xiaofu didn't pick all the fruits, but those that were bigger and lower. As for the fruits on the top of the tree, Tang Xiaofu did not climb the tree with any effort.

"Even if these fruits stay on the trees, I'm not afraid. When the snow melts in spring, the fruits will fall to the ground and rot, which is also a kind of nourishment. Next year, these fruit trees will bear better."

Mr. Tang is also an old farmer this year. Although he has never planted fruit trees, he is very familiar with the crops in the field, so he stroked his beard and nodded.

"I remember you still have a lot of winter jujubes on the mountain. Those things are not afraid of freezing. The old man is about to give birth. It's good to pick them back and let him eat some tonic."

Tang Xiaofu nodded and looked around. After confirming the direction, he told Mr. Tang about those winter jujube trees.

"Here, I remember that there should be quite a lot left. In the afternoon, I will send Brother Qin some of our family's cold-dispelling decoctions. He prescribed them all."

Tang Xiaofu now has a small success in health-preserving exercises, and his strength is much stronger than that of ordinary men.

But in front of Mr. Tang, he was always that delicate and soft little brother.

My dear sons, I have far-reaching plans for it.

Although Tang Xiaofu is so old, he is still a baby in the eyes of Mr. Tang.

Mr. Tang took the initiative to take his bamboo basket, and nodded with a smile.

"Let's go, these two bamboo baskets are not heavy, I can carry the old man."

Tang Xiaofu saw that there were not many things in the two bamboo baskets, so he didn't argue with Mr. Tang.

The two of them came to the winter jujube tree and looked at the blue winter jujubes that were fruitful on the tree, which was quite gratifying.

Mr. Tang quickly stepped forward with the bamboo basket in hand, stretched out his hands vigorously, and began to pick the green dates.

"This green jujube is a good thing. It is the most nourishing for nourishing qi and blood."

Tang Xiaofu nodded with a smile, and silently took the heavy basket.

Fortunately, the winter jujube tree was not very tall. Tang Xiaofu used a long stick picked up halfway up the mountain to knock down the high jujubes and put them in bamboo baskets. Since there was thick snow under the tree, he was not worried about the jujubes falling. hurt.

The two of them were happily picking them, Tang Xiaofu moved his ears, and suddenly heard animals whimpering, and the faint howling of wolves.

He stopped frowning, looked around with his hands, and suddenly saw a gray figure behind Mr. Tang, who rushed over quickly, and Tang Xiaofu's heart suddenly rose.
