It was already late at night, and there were people walking by the dirt road at the entrance of Xipo Village, sometimes there were villagers who came back late and vendors who came from afar.

Not long after the several travelers in front of him walked over, a ox cart slowly drove up behind him. An old man was sitting in the car and a young man walked in front of the car.

"Aye, you have been sitting for so long, so I should change to sitting." The man in front of the car complained.

The father and son came from a village on the other end of Lishi County. They went out before dawn today. They walked until now and were about to arrive at Xipo Village.

I think my family is well off because I feel sorry for my old cow and refuses to sit in the car at the same time. So I agreed that the two of them will take turns to sit. As a result, they always think that I have been sitting a lot, and his son is most likely walking.

"It's not bad for a while, it's almost here." His father sat in the car steadily and said, "Did you see the light in front of you? That's Luo Sanlang from Xipo Village is studying."

"Aye, am I your biological child?" His son suddenly said.

"If your mother listens to this, she won't break your legs." The old man cursed with a smile.

When the old man was fighting in the north, he was given a discount on his leg. Fortunately, he met a good doctor and this leg was saved. After all, he was not a cripple and only had some root cause. In such a cold weather, the injured leg bones hurt slightly.

He rarely talks about these things at home, and the youngest ones below are not very clear about them. His eldest son and eldest daughter know a little, but the third son is stupid. No one told him, and he didn't see it at all. He even snatched a car with him along the way.

The old man squinted his eyes and looked at the faint light in front of him, looked at the other person's Saburo, and then looked at his stupid son...

Alas, you have to throw away the goods.

·

In the Luo family yard, someone else's Saburo was wrapping a quilt and holding an aluminum lunch box. While shouting in his heart, he was raising beef fried noodles into his mouth in big mouth.

In the past, when Luo Yong was traveling around the country, if he saw something delicious, he would buy more portions to store. His space was much better than a refrigerator or something. He put the hot food in, no matter how long it took, it was still hot when it was taken out.

After eating a few bites of beef fried noodles, the taste buds that had been dormant all day finally came to life. For a good young man in the 21st century who was born under the red flag and grew up in New China, the food of ancient people was too difficult to swallow.

Luo used the second-hand books to read from the space while eating noodles.

Soy sauce and soy sauce are too slow to make, and the market for fermented bean curd is still gradually opening up. If you can't hurry up, let's see if there are any other ways to make money.

Unfortunately, the second-hand books I bought from the university town were so professional that no one could be used after searching for them.

What is "Engineering Mechanics", what is "Advanced Mathematics", what is "University English Volume X", what is "Principles of Computer Components", what is "Biochemistry and Molecular Biology"...

After reading this pile of books, I didn't find anything useful, so I put it away, took another pile from the space and then flipped it, and found a book called "Soil Science". This one seemed to be useful, put it aside and flipped...

A gust of cold wind blew, blowing the half-open window. Luo Yong hurried over and opened some to keep the room ventilated. He was worried that the oil lamp would be blown out, so he pushed it into the corner of the wall again.

It is not easy to eat alone. He is worried that he will eat with the doors and windows. When he wakes up tomorrow morning, the smell will not be dissipated. If the second mother and the others smell it, it will be troublesome. There are also the small ones below, and the noses are all good.

Luo Yong also wanted to improve their food soon. There were a lot of good things in his space, but he couldn't take them out for them to eat directly. It was hard to tell the reason and it would add risks.

After eating a beef fried noodles, Luo Yong took another pancake fruit and then ate it. The pancake was also hot, the grilled rice was crispy, and the sauce was particularly fragrant... The more you ate, the more guilt Luo Yong felt in his heart, it was no good. You must let the dolls next door eat it and drink it spicy as soon as possible.

In the second half of the night, a group of villagers who were going to sell tofu in the city passed by not far outside the wall of Luo's courtyard. Seeing that there seemed to be a light inside the wall, everyone said, "It's already this time, and Sanlang is still studying."

Such a scene is often seen. The villagers say that Luo Sanlang is really a diligent scholar.

·

Luo Sanlang read for two or three days in the night, and finally he found a very practical technology that they urgently needed at present - Panhuo Kang.

This was also what he found out from a bunch of web pages he saved in a smartphone. If it weren't for the fact that there was nothing currently available in the second-hand books, Luo Yong wouldn't be willing to move the electronic products in the space. Although it wouldn't be consumed as long as it was placed in the space, it would definitely have to run out of electricity if it was taken out. The power is limited, and it would be less used once.

Putting the phone back into space, Luo Yong recalled the content he had just read, but was not relieved. He was afraid that he would forget it after sleeping, so he took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, drew two sketches, and noted a few things to pay attention to next to it, so he went to bed with peace of mind.

After breakfast the next day, Luo Yong called his assistant Qiao Junlin to go out to dig soil together. Erniang, Siniang and Wulang were going to go, but Luo Yong didn't let it go. It was snowy and snowy. It would be very cold to take a bath. After that, Erniang had to wash a bunch of clothes for them.

Luo used the two of them to take hoes and dustpans to a red mud slope outside the village. The red mud on this slope is very sticky. The people in Xipo Village built walls and built mud houses, etc. Most of them dug mud from here. Last time they went to the Luo family to practice the yard, they also dug mud from here.

At this moment, the slope was covered with a thick layer of snow, and the soil under the snow was also frozen hard. The north wind blew over the past two days and it was frozen everywhere. The dirt road that I had just walked over was also frozen, so as not to step on the mud.

Two teenagers dug soil on the slope together, and the Luo family had only one hoe. Luo Yong waved the hoe and Qiao Junlin waved the sickle. The two of them worked hard for a long time, but they had not yet dug out two dustpans of soil.

It was not until Lin Wulang heard that they were digging soil here and came to help with hoes that they had improved efficiency.

It turned out that when Lin Wulang and Aunt Luo were cleaning their yard just now, they heard a familiar sound coming from outside. Aunt Luo looked over and saw that it was Luo Siniang and Luo Wulang running wildly with a group of children in the village, and the two little paparazzi were also following behind.

These two brothers have been eating full every day recently and are energetic. No child of this age doesn’t like to play.

"Si Niang Wulang, why don't you help my brother and sister at home? You will know how to run around all day long." Aunt Luo called out to both of them.

"Brother and Qiao Dalang went out to dig soil. They didn't ask us to follow us. My sister said there was nothing wrong at home and asked us to come out for a while." Luo Siniang said with a smile.

"Sanlang and the others dug the soil? What are they for?" Lin Wulang also left the yard at this time.

"I don't know." Luo Siniang shook her head.

Lin Wulang thought about it and found nothing was wrong, so he carried a hoe, carried two dustpans, and went over to help.

Lin Wulang has a good impression of his wife's brother-in-law. Although Aunt Luo is already a married daughter, the recipe for making tofu in the Luo family was not hidden from her. If they want to make tofu now, they can make it at any time.

The two houses above had some thoughts about this matter, mainly because their two sisters-in-law wanted this prescription and gave it to their parents' home. However, Aunt Luo refused to agree to this matter. If she really wanted to do this, she would offend all the people in Xipo Village.

Lin’s father and mother meant this. They still had to gain a foothold in Xipo Village and had to stand in the same camp as the villagers. Although the two houses above were not giving up, they had no choice.

Lin Wulang also knew that he was not as smart as the two brothers above, nor was he loved by the younger brother below. It was really good that Aye had appointed him as a relative. He was happy to help if there was something wrong with the Luo family.

·

"Sanlang, what are you digging the soil in this cold day?" Lin Wulang walked out of the village along the dirt road and walked towards the slope where the villagers used to dig dredge. From a distance, he and the other two were busy working on the slope.

"Brother-in-law is here." Seeing Lin Wulang, Luo Yong also looked happy.

He knew that although the Lin family was rich, the men in the family had to go to the fields. The Lin family's big and white-collar workers were good at work. Even Lin Liulang, Lin's mother's beloved beloved, had to grab a hoe to the ground to pretend during the busy farming season.

People who often do farm work are different. After Goro went down these hoes, he dug a dustpan of yellow mud from the slope, which was much cleaner than the two of them.

When he returned to the yard, Luo Yong told Lin Wulang about his ideas about the kang and showed him the earthen paper. As for where this thing came from, it was naturally what he thought of. He could not push everything to the Shangshang.

Lin Wulang heard the novelty and had nothing to do recently, so he simply put on the kang with Luo Yong. The first kang was chosen to be the thatched house next to the gate of Luo Family Courtyard.

A few days later, Lin Wulang and Luo used them to make adobe plates and fire kangs, and they were very busy.

For this matter, Lin Erlang also said to his wife: "The fifth brother now knows to run to the Luo family all day long, and he also takes all his own molds for the Luo family to use."

As a result, he was scolded by his mother: "Just take care of yourself, you can care about what Lao Wu does, just use the mold when you use it, and it's not that you won't take it back."

Speaking of the Lin family.

Lin’s father and mother originally had six children, but now there are only five left. Lin’s father also hoped that a scholar would be born in the family. When he first named the name, he was also arranged one by one according to the poems, rituals and music of Yishu.

The eldest son Lin Xingyi is already married and has two sons. The second son Lin Xingshu only has one daughter. The third son Lin Shier has been married for more than three years and just got a son last year. Lin’s father and mother love this grandson very much. Not to mention Silang’s death in his early years. Wulang is Luo Sanlang’s brother-in-law. This year, the 19th year, the name is Lin Xingle, and the youngest one below is called Lin Chunqiu.

Although Lin's mother is partial, she is not confused. Goro is also her son. Even if she doesn't pay much attention to it, she still hopes that he will be good.

The Luo family Sanlang has made a lot of noise recently, and he looks like he can stand out. At this time, she naturally hopes that her son can interact with him more. Anyway, in this winter, there is no work in the field, so she is idle at home.

Two more days passed, and Lin Xingle not only brought back his own mold, but also pulled a truck of removed adobe bricks, saying that he wanted to put on a fire kang for Lin's father and mother.

He also said that the kang is a good thing. Several houses in the Luo family were built. When cooking, it was a little hot water. The kang could be warm for a long time. With that thing, they would not use the brazier and stove in the future. The room was warm every day and night.

When Mrs. Lin heard his words, she felt a little disbelief and said no, it was too much trouble. She held the stove every day and didn't feel cold.

So Lin Wulang had to make one in his house first. There were those made adobe bricks, and it was much faster to plate the fire kang. He had plated a few with Luo Yong before, and he had experience, so he didn't need anyone to help. The couple dangled in his house for a long time and then made a fire kang.

After drying this plate of good kang, then burn it on low heat and roast it slowly. After almost all, you can lay a straw mat on top and sit up, and you will never fall in love again.

The first time Lin's mother came back, she sat on the kang for most of the day, and she would come over every day from now on, and asked directly: "When will Wulang come back?"

Her stupid son, when she heard that her mother didn't like to ask for a kang, she took it seriously. She packed the kang in her house and went to the county town with Luo Sanlang the next day. She heard that a city man who went to Luo's family to buy fermented bean curd saw his kang and thought that the thing was very good, so she asked Luo Sanlang to go to his house to help him make some.

"I didn't ask someone to bring a letter back to say that, and someone else would ask them to go to the kang to come back later." Lin's mother asked Goro when he would come back on that day. Aunt Luo felt a little funny. The old lady was so worried about Goro now.

"Oh, it's almost time for the New Year, and you don't feel sorry for it." Luo's mother sighed.

"Then I'll ask the second wife and the others again?" Aunt Luo put down the twine that was rubbing in her hand.

"Go." The old lady waved her hand.

Aunt Luo went there now, and there was also a kang over the Luo family, and she was happy to stay with Er Niang and the others.

Lin Wulang was not at home, and she was very bored when she stayed alone in the large yard of the Lin family. She couldn't tell the same place as the two sisters-in-law.

Not long after Aunt Luo left the yard, her father also walked into the house.

"You come up and warm your legs, too." Lin's mother greeted him.

"I won't go up." The old man who had slept on the kang, and it was not suitable for him to climb up. Mr. Lin didn't go up the kang, so he sat on the edge of the kang: "Oh, it's really warm here."

"You don't know that staying here, even your toes are warm." Lin's mother said to him.

In their era, there were no particularly warm shoes and socks. It was inevitable that I would get frozen on my feet in winter. When I went out, I would wear straw sandals. If I had better conditions, I would have more pairs of linen socks. I would have frozen it for decades. When I was older, my legs would be bad. If I was hot on the kang, it would be so good.

"When will Goro come back?" the old man also asked.

"Who knew." The old lady paused and hummed again: "I just said that at that time, he took it seriously. If it weren't for the fifth child, I would have to think that he had done it."

"How could Goro?" The old man waved his hand and told her not to think about it.
