After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 370

 The sky was gloomy all the way out of the village.

 Experienced farmers can tell at a glance that the temperature may drop sharply at night and it will snow in the early morning.

  Unfortunately, there were no serious farmers in the team. Liu Ji felt his body getting colder and colder while driving the carriage, and muttered: "It's really hard for people to suffer on the road in this winter."

 In a daze, I thought about the day when I went to the north to deliver food last year. Suddenly, it was a year ago.

 A year does not seem to be long, but during this year, there was first a plague of locusts, then famine, and everything was in chaos.

Unfortunately, their village is like a paradise. They have set up a stationery factory, built roads, and all the villagers have built big houses. It is simply too good to be true.

 But after leaving the village and gradually heading towards Fucheng, I saw several waves of beggars who went out to beg in the cold wind that could freeze people to death.

 “Madam, you are really the great blessing in our village!”

Liu Ji didn't bring much luggage, just two sets of clothes for a change of clothes. Qin Yao took out a thick gown and threw it out. His temper was really bad.

It seems that every year, the people who work hard to make a living are still unable to live a life of adequate clothing and food.

 The weather was as she expected. By mid-afternoon, the cold was obviously getting worse.

So, at the request of the guest officials, the bathhouse was opened, hot water was poured into the pool, and taking a bath became a matter of course.

 “What?” she asked bluntly.

 After being glared at by Qin Yao, he clenched his fists and restrained himself.

Those thatched shacks have remained the same for ten years without any change.

Liu Ji felt that hundreds of flowers were blooming in front of his eyes, and the warm spring sun suddenly fell on his heart, and the ice melted.

Qi Xianguan got out of the car window, with his scarf, hat and earmuffs still on, revealing only a fair and delicate little face, which looked like a squirrel. Liu Ji laughed at the sight of it.

Qin Yao responded affirmatively. In the apocalypse, various extreme temperatures take turns, and the signs before the arrival are difficult to detect. But later on, after experiencing more, he gradually figured out the rules.

Outside the thick cotton curtain, Liu Ji chuckled, "Madam, please use your noble hands to help me find a thick piece of clothing for my husband. It's really cold outside, and my hands are so cold that I can't feel anything." "

When she returns to the village, there is still the matter of Carpenter Liu withdrawing his shares to deal with. Just thinking of this, Qin Yao wants to just lie down and let it go.

Qin Yao sneered lightly and said, "Next time if you have something to say, just say it. Don't waste my time."

She raised her head and looked at the sky, frowning slightly, "It's past noon, and it's not bright at all, which means the clouds are very thick. In the afternoon, there may be a big drop in temperature, and it may snow tonight." The driver in front heard that Then he looked back and asked politely: "Madam, are you sure it will snow tonight?"

Calculating it this way, we have to stay in Fucheng for at least three days. Counting the round trip, half a month has been wasted.

  But the threshold of five people is equivalent to nothing for nobles with attendants.

Qin Yao said calmly: "It's okay, it's just a light snowfall. It will melt as soon as it gets bright and it won't affect the schedule. But it's best to stay indoors tonight."

"Madam, your word "gun" is the most touching word I've ever heard." Before getting into the carriage, he kept his mouth shut.

Liu Ji didn't know that he had interrupted the tranquility of others. He took off the long gown that covered his head with a charcoal heater, and felt confused.

The cold wind was blowing outside, and the crooked bun on her head was flying wildly beside her face. Liu Ji almost gasped when she looked at it. Qin Yao was as fine as anyone, as if she couldn't feel the cold outside.

Qi Xianguan asked: "Madam, if there is snow at night, will it affect tomorrow's trip?"

With such an obvious omen in front of her, Qin Yao was sure that she would not be wrong.

With the help of the Qi family, Liu Ji and Qin Yao moved into this official inn for the first time, which ordinary people could only watch from a distance and dare not approach.

Now being interrupted by Liu Ji, he became upset. While rummaging through his clothes, he was thinking about the arrangements after arriving in Fucheng.

Qin Yao was so convinced that she shook her head helplessly and laughed. She flicked her whip and sped up. In an instant, she caught up with the Qi family's carriage ahead.

Qi Xianguan breathed a sigh of relief and asked Qin Yao if he was tired. When he received a reply that he was not tired, he ordered the guards not to stop at noon and speed up their journey, so as to reach the Daguanyi station halfway in the evening so that they could cool down tonight.

 Taking a bath is more than just soaking in hot water. The temperature must also be maintained, so hot water needs to be added continuously. It is winter again. If it is just for one person, it would be too extravagant to waste so much firewood.

The house looked like the last time I went to Fucheng to take the exam, and it still looks like this in the cold winter.

 Luckily, everyone successfully arrived at the largest official post in the vicinity before it got dark.

But I don't dare to complain. I can only coax him to avoid the tragic end of being thrown into the wilderness.

Liu Ji put his arms around his younger brother's shoulders and called the inn clerk to ask about the process. The clerk carefully replied:

Because it is the largest inn on the way from Kaiyang County to Fucheng, it not only has luxurious Tianhao rooms, but also a bathhouse where you can take a bath.

As soon as the people in the car lifted the curtain and got out, Liu Ji felt a warm sensation on the back of her head, which was blocked by the hanging cotton cloth. When the cold wind blew, she suddenly felt excited, thinking about what kind of magical life she was living in the car.

Go to see Aunt Qi first, then go to Jiang Wen of Fulong Trading Company to settle the bill, and finally walk around the city for half a day, buy all the gifts the children want, buy some New Year's goods, and return home.

Just when Qi Xianguan was hesitating whether this was too high-profile, Liu Ji had already walked towards the bathroom door. I don't know how he did it. He collected a basket of bath cards and gave one to all the guests in the post house.

"The distinguished guests first go to the entrance of the bathroom in the backyard to get a sign. If there are more than five people, the hot water will be boiled in the kitchen immediately, and the guests can take a sign and take a bath in the bathhouse."

He consciously moved out of the way, leaving a place for Qin Yao.

It was rare to leave the village and have a quiet moment alone. She just wanted to be alone, listening to the whimpering caused by the cold wind outside the window, and immersed in her own loneliness.

Liu Ji watched helplessly as his junior brother decided the matter by himself, and almost bit his gums to pieces - the driver's life was not his life?

But just when his cold hands were about to freeze, Qin Yao pulled him away and took the riding whip, "Get out!"

“Madam, it's not bright at all today, and I don't know what time it is.” Liu Ji asked curiously.

Qin Yao, who was sitting in the car warming himself by the fire and drinking hot tea, suddenly heard such a flattery. It was not deliberate, but it was definitely intentional.

“Teacher, let's take a walk! Put your clothes away and let's take a bath!”

Gong Liangxiao was having dinner in the house. As soon as he stuffed a mouthful of rice into his mouth, Liu Ji was swept away by Liu Ji who was swept by the wind.

After a crackling sound, only a pair of jade chopsticks fell to the ground were left in the room.
