Jiang Ling said to everyone: "This is coarse salt. I met a foreign businessman in Yecheng a while ago. He said that this stuff can melt the snow quickly. I was worried that we would have heavy snow in winter, so I bought some. , I didn’t expect it to come in handy today!”

"It's good for everyone to sprinkle this thing evenly on the snow, but you have to pay attention that although this thing is called coarse salt, it is different from the salt we cook and cook. Don't secretly take it back to cook, or I will not be responsible for poisoning! "Jiang Ling exhorted everyone.

Most of the people were still very obedient, they all took snow-sweeping tools and put the deicing agent in the snow little by little, only Mrs. Lu and Lu Youren curled their lips.

"Tsk, this little whore really has so much money recently that she is so extravagant to use salt to melt snow?" Mrs. Lu, who was in the crowd, grabbed a handful of coarse salt and put it in her pocket while Jiang Ling was not paying attention. son muttered.

"Yes, yes, although the salt is a bit big, it is enough for our whole family to take the millstone when we go back and read it!" Lu Youren imitated his mother's appearance and secretly grabbed several handfuls of salt and put them in his trouser pockets. inside.

While pretending to melt the snow, the mother and son secretly stuffed salt into their pockets, not taking Jiang Ling's words to heart at all.

With the action of the snow melting agent, the surrounding snow melted very quickly. After a while, most of the snow had been cleared away. Jiang Ling and the village chief took a look at the snow wall blocking the entrance of the village, and then looked at the remaining snow. Not much deicing agent.

Jiang Ling hesitated for a moment and said: "Village Chief, I don't think it will snow again recently. Everyone is tired from work today, why not work tomorrow!"

The village head is also a little tired this time, after all, it is still a bit cumbersome to work in thick winter clothes, but he is the village head of Lujia Village after all, how can he open his mouth and shout tired, so he can only bear it silently.

Hearing Jiang Ling's proposal, he quickly nodded and agreed: "Yes, everyone is probably exhausted, and the snow should be cleaned up by the day after tomorrow at the latest!"

Jiang Ling nodded and said to the crowd: "Everyone stop what you are doing, everyone is tired today, so let's stop here for now! Everyone go back and take a rest, come to my house in half an hour, I will prepare for you Serving some dumplings is a reward for everyone!"

Jiang Ling's words immediately made everyone cheer. There were a few people who were tired of working and wanted to complain. After hearing Jiang Ling's words, their fatigue was swept away. Jiang Ling was the only ones in the crowd, Mrs. Lu and Lu Youren.

As soon as the two heard that they didn't need to work, they hurriedly carried their tools and carefully left the crowd. Although they were interested in dumplings, their guilty conscience could only make them slip away quietly.

As soon as they got home, Lu Youren and Mrs. Lu took out all the coarse salt in their pockets. Widow Wang, who was taking care of the children at home, couldn't help asking a little strangely when she saw this scene: "Mother, Mrs. Lu, what is this?"

"Didn't you go to sweep the snow just now? Jiang's little whore is really burning with a lot of money. She even asked us to throw this fine salt in the snow and use it to melt the snow. I bought some, I can't bear to throw such a rare and precious thing into the snowdrift!" Mrs. Lu complained while looking at the mountain of coarse salt on the table.

Widow Wang frowned after hearing this, since the last time she gave birth to Jiang Ling and saved her, she had an inexplicable apology to Jiang Ling, and now she heard her mother-in-law say that, she couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

But since Lu Youren is still here, he can't say anything.

Mrs. Lu glanced at Widow Wang and said impatiently: "Put the child there quickly, and come out with me to grind salt! It will be bad if the salt tide comes!"

Although Widow Wang wanted to refuse, but looking at Lu Youren's displeased eyes, she could only sigh helplessly. She even regretted it. She was probably bewitched by Lu Youren at the beginning, or else she was blind and could see Lu Youren's eyes. guy.

She took a deep breath and walked in front of Mrs. Lu, and began to push the nearly [-]-jin millstone, while Mrs. Lu carefully put coarse salt on it.

After a while, the coarse salt turned into fine salt with white crystals. Mrs. Lu carefully took out several pockets from the house, and put the fine salt in the pockets like a few treasures.

"Well, it's good that the extra bag can be sold in the town!" Mrs. Lu said triumphantly.

"Mother... reselling private salt is against the law! If the county magistrate finds out, he will go to prison!" Widow Wang couldn't help reminding Mrs. Lu when she heard Mrs. Lu muttering to herself.

After being reminded like this, Mrs. Lu was obviously very unhappy. She rolled her eyes at Widow Wang and cursed angrily, "You just opened your mouth, didn't you! If I find out about this matter, I'll cut off your tongue !"

After saying that, he gave Widow Wang a vicious look.

Widow Wang felt wronged, but she knew that Lu Youren would not stand by her at all, so she could only swallow her anger and go back to her room with a dark face and continue to take care of the child.

After Mrs. Lu carefully put away the salt, she took a look around again, and after confirming that there was no one there, she coughed lightly at Lu Youren and said, "Let's go, let's go to that little whore's house to get dumplings!"

Dumplings, of course, are quick-frozen ones bought from the mall. Anyway, these people can't eat them because they have the same shape and taste.

Jiang Ling distributed according to the head, ten dumplings per person, although ten dumplings would not be enough to eat, but the advantage is that the courtesy is light and the affection is heavy, at least everyone will express their gratitude to Jiang Ling.

After putting a dumpling in Mrs. Lu's bag, Mrs. Lu smacked her lips and said angrily, "That's all? How about sending the beggar?"

The voice was somewhat familiar, Jiang Ling looked up, her face collapsed immediately, she snatched the bag from Mrs Lu's hand and said, "Don't eat if you think it's too little! I'm eating it for the people who are building Lujia Village, isn't it Give food to beggars!"

The voice of this sentence is not loud, but all the people around can hear it clearly. Even those refugees who have been here for a long time have heard something about Jiang Ling's past. They can't figure it out. The same Jiang Ling was bullied like this before.

The eyes of the people around immediately focused on Mrs. Lu, and Mrs. Lu knew she was wrong, and quickly snatched the bag from Jiang Ling's hand and ran away without a trace.

Even if Lu Youren behind wanted to make a mistake, seeing the scene in front of him, he could only obediently left Jiang Ling's house with the dumplings.

Dinner was some leftover quick-frozen dumplings, and the children ate their stomachs again. Nian Chi touched his stomach and asked, "Mom, when did you make so many dumplings?"

Jiang Ling knew it was difficult to explain, so she said quickly, "Oh, earlier, mother was not worried that we would have nothing to eat in winter, so she made a lot of dumplings and put them outside to freeze at night."

Although this reason is lame, fortunately none of the children's thoughts fell on the source of the dumplings, but this incident reminded Jiang Ling that the children will not be easy to deceive in the future when they grow up.

In the early morning of the next day, Jiang Ling brought two large buckets of snow melting agent and put them at the entrance of the village. Mrs. Lu and Lu Youren's eyes began to light up when they saw the white flowers and coarse salt.
