While Xiao Yun was busy preparing for autumn and winter, all the young and old in the village were not idle, they were all raising the walls of their own courtyards. You need to heighten your yard and thicken the gate, otherwise, if you do it again, the livestock in the yard will be gone.

Regardless of other people's homes, Xiao Yun and Tie Han were busy with their own affairs. When the first autumn rain came, the weather became obviously colder. At this time, Xiao Yun was a little anxious, afraid that Tie Dan would be affected by the weather. Liang is sick, after all, this child is fragile at any time.

In order to keep the child warm in the future, he immediately asked Tie Han to go to the town with him to buy some cotton. He wanted to make winter clothes for the whole family, and it was the first time he spent the winter in this place. He was also afraid that he would not be able to stand the temperature. Although when he came, there were enough things in the space for him to spend the winter, but he had better not get too derailed from this era.

I told Tie San to look after the house, and he and Tie Han left. This time, Tie Yi and Tie Er were also there. It is said that Tie Han made it a few days ago. Sex is driven back by car, and they will not come when there is nothing to do. They will start the autumn harvest, and the family has a lot of land, so it will take some time to harvest.

When they arrived in the town, they did things separately. Tie Han and Xiao Yun went directly to the cloth shop and picked up soft cotton cloth inside. I bought cotton. The cotton here is really expensive. It is even more expensive than animal skins. Most people probably can't afford it. If they didn't have money, they probably wouldn't be able to afford it.

When it was time to settle the accounts, Xiao Yun couldn't help being amazed, these things would cost more than [-] taels, if the money could catch up with a year's income in an ordinary family, and the family would not eat or drink, the rest would be of.

After leaving the cloth shop, Xiao Yun thought for a while and asked, "Brother Tie, do we have wool thread here?"

Tie Han thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what the woolen thread was, but he understood the word wool, "There is no woolen thread, but there is wool, but no one wants that thing. At the border, the people there killed After the sheep, except for making sheepskin jackets, the wool is kept, and the rest of the wool is simply burned, but the sheepskin will be left to make boots or animal skin ropes.”

Xiao Yun was taken aback, this prodigal stuff, "Where do you have that thing? Let's buy it, it can make a lot of money."

Tie Han saw Xiao Yun's careful look, so he believed it. Since this person came to their house, their life has been booming. It can be said that he has never thought of a comfortable life since he came to Daqinggou. This person has more and more ideas, which shows that this person has a wide range of knowledge. If he marries him, his family's ancestral grave will be smoked. . . . .

After shopping, the two of them went to the grocery store and bought some daily necessities, especially salt. The family was pickling vegetables recently, so naturally they used more salt. Recently, he also wanted to pickle a few jars of sauerkraut. , the winter here is very cold, and the chance of eating fresh vegetables is zero, so the only way is to prepare a lot of vegetables for winter, after all, there are a bunch of young people at home!

After buying enough things, the family gathered at the entrance of the town, and then went home in a carriage. On the way, they saw some disabled people on the road or in a car from time to time, or walked with a little numbness on a difficult walk.

Puzzled, Xiao Yun asked Tie Han beside him: "Brother Tie, what's going on?"

Tie Han looked at the wounded soldiers along the way, shook his head and said sullenly: "Now it's the time for the wounded soldiers to return to their hometowns once a year. These people are all wounded soldiers who have to return home because their military service has expired. I feel sorry for them, so I will give them some money to return to their hometown, but even if they return to their hometown, it will be hard to live, how can the family raise a useless person for nothing, hey!"

Xiao Yun looked at these remnant soldiers, with the sadness in their eyes, they probably knew in their hearts that they would die if they went back!

"Brother Tie, if we recruit these wounded soldiers to work for us, provide them with food, clothing and housing, and pay back their wages, do you think the imperial court will allow it?" Xiao Yun touched his chin and said.

"Can you support these people?" Tie Han thought for a while and said.

"Of course, I have seen the injuries of these people. Except for those who are missing arms and legs, the rest are useful, such as those with only one eye or one ear, or those with scars on their faces. We can ask them to give us plant Well, they are not really useless people, and those who have one arm left, we simply let them take care of our livestock for us, originally I thought I would talk about this after the autumn harvest at home for a while, now look Let’s talk about this is the right time. Now our family is short of people, and it happens to be used now. How good it is. By then, there will be more and more residents in our Daqinggou, and it will be much more lively. By then During the Chinese New Year, we bought a Zhuangzi to cultivate the land, and there are quite a few people who use it, and these remnant soldiers will have a way to survive, what do you think?"

"Okay, I'll go back and write a letter to Wang Xian to discuss it, and if it's okay, let's do it this way."

Xiao Yun nodded after hearing this, he can only do this step, either his heart is so kind, or he pities these 'homeless' people, originally he went to serve in the military for the sake of his family, but finally Yi Yi came back alive from the battlefield, but was neglected and disgusted by his family because of his disability. Such a family might as well not return, and just settle in their Daqinggou. When the time comes, he will think of a way to open some shops, and then let They have a job to make a living, and Tie Han understands that no matter what he becomes in the future, he, Xiao Yun, will never dislike him.

When he got home, Xiao Yun began to prepare winter and autumn clothes for the child. The main reason was that when he came, the clothes in the storage ring were all summer, which had nothing to do with winter, but it did not hinder Xiao Yun's enthusiasm for making clothes. He doesn't reject it at all, on the contrary, he likes it. For a period of time, when he lived here, he just revolved around the iron egg and the pot. Han is a person who knows the cold and the hot, and loves him very much, that's enough.

Tie Han packed up the things he bought, and when he entered the room, he saw Tie Dan asleep on the kang, Xiao Yun was cutting cloth there with scissors, so he walked over: "Don't do it, let's talk about it tomorrow, you have been tired all day too gone."

Xiao Yun kept his hands on: "It's okay, just a little work, I'll finish it in a while." Then he finished the work with a few scissors.Then I picked up the manual sewing machine beside me.

Tie Han looked at the little thing, Xiao Yun finished a piece of clothing in less than half an hour, his eyes were straightened, and he couldn't help touching it carefully with his hands.

"Xiao Yun, what is this?" Tie Han saw Xiao Yun using something for the first time. He knew that Xiao Yun had always had some little secrets, so he would come up with a novelty from time to time.

Xiao Yun nailed the newly made mahogany buttons to the little clothes, and said to Tie Han: "Oh, this is called a sewing machine, faster than the needle and thread in your hand."

Tie Han nodded, and then pondered over the principle of this thing. If he is interested in leading troops to fight, it is better to say that he is interested in organs and carpentry. This is all thanks to his grandfather, who taught him various carpentry since he was a child. Craftsmanship is said to be the foundation of their family. It will be useful in the future when the world is peaceful, but the old man will not be blessed when the world is peaceful.

Tie Han studied this thing enough, so he said to Xiao Yun: "Xiao Yun, can this thing be drawn?"

Xiao Yun thought for a while: "It would be even better if you can make it. It's bigger than this one, and it's that kind of pedal. It doesn't need..." Electricity is good!

After getting Xiao Yun's promise, Tie Han went out to cook, and today he wanted to cook something good for Xiao Yun. This person has lost weight recently, so he needs to make up for it!

The next night, Tie Han received a letter from Wang Xian, in which he thanked Tie Han and his wife for being able to recruit wounded soldiers, and immediately sent a group of retired soldiers who did not want to go home, but none of them He is a man with a good heart, and he doesn't have so many thoughts. At that time, Tie Han and his wife will be easy to manipulate, otherwise, someone with a bad nature may bring trouble to the two of them.

Xiao Yun is also very satisfied with this arrangement. After all, he is a foreigner, and he can really integrate with this world only in the village of Daqinggou. , or his own man reassures him.

Because the machine is handy, it took only two days to make the autumn clothes for the family. As for the winter clothes, we have to wait. After all, the family will harvest beans tomorrow, or else it will be rainy in a few days. It sucks in geography.

After finishing the farm tools, the family went to the field. As for Tie Dan, Xiao Yun sent him to the old village head's house, asked the village head's wife to help him, and promised to pay for the child.

On the way, Xiao Yun thought for a while, "Brother Tie, our family is hiring a nanny, ah, just hire a nanny for Tie Dan, you know, our family is all male, if there is no female No, at least the two of us are old men, and Xiao Wu and the others are also, saying that there is no woman who has experience in raising children, and in order to avoid suspicion, she has to be a little older, too young and inexperienced."

Originally Xiao Yun's words stunned Tie Han somewhat, but when he heard Xiao Yun's words, he felt right and was very happy. Does this mean that he wants to let go of the family and become the house husband?After all, he doesn't like Xiao Yun who is a good boy who spends all day by this hotpot. He hopes that Xiao Yun will also live a few days that he likes.

Xiao Yun didn't know what Tie Han was thinking. Seeing that Tie Han agreed, he stopped talking too much. A few people came to the edge of the field and started cutting the soybeans in the field. After all, this is what their family will eat this winter. of.

A few people started to cut soybeans after dividing the ridges. It turned out to be fine at first, but after 10 minutes, Xiao Yun fell further and further behind. When everyone else had reached the end of the field, he was still busy in the middle of the field. .

Tie Han slapped his forehead, and suddenly remembered that this Xiao Yun used to be served by others, and he had never done farm work at all, so how could he let him work with him? I really forgot about it.

Although Xiao Yun also wanted to do it quickly, but he had never done farm work before. At the beginning, he stayed at his grandfather's house in the countryside for a while, but he was only five years old at that time, so he had no chance to do it at all. It became obvious that there was a gap between him and those who were used to farm work.

Those few people looked at their lord when they saw this, and Tie Han thought for a while: "Let's finish cutting quickly, let him do it slowly, and let him go back when the ridge is over, so that he will no longer be brave. , Last night I told him to bring the iron egg at home, but he insisted on coming, and when he gets tired this time, he won't come tomorrow."

But he still misjudged Xiao Yun's tenacity, even though he was tired enough now, he didn't say anything, he just thought about one thing, why didn't he draw a sickle long ago, a long one would save him tiredness He couldn't even lift his waist. At this time, he missed the current harvester very much. Such a small piece would only take half a day to harvest.

When he finally reached the end of the field, he stood up and looked behind him, and couldn't help frowning in his heart. The skills of these guys are really good. He only finished one ridge, but the two ridges were almost finished. Thinking of this, he He didn't want to cut the land at all, he just went to the side and picked up the four-toothed iron fork, loaded the soybeans they had cut, directly into the car, and then prepared to deliver the soybeans home. He felt that this job was more suitable for him.

Tie Han saw that he was busy there, so he didn't stop him, let him toss around, he honestly took the lead in cutting the land, and the few people behind saw Xiao Yun tossing around, so Tie San walked over to help him After loading the car, and then helping him to send the soybeans back, Xiao Yun was relieved, finally he was no longer a waste, and he was able to help the family with some farm work!
