Chapter 256 Things Have Changed

After a day of fun, everyone went to bed early after dinner.

The next morning, Bai Yunxi opened her eyes and felt that the house was chilly. Needless to say, the temperature outside must have dropped again.

In fact, the shack she lived in was quite warm, but it was her first time living there, so she lacked a sense of security and would open the window halfway for ventilation every time before going to bed.

When placing charcoal basins in winter, you must also pay attention to ventilation.

"Mom, why don't you sleep a little longer? The weather has changed." Mrs. Du brought a bundle from the backyard and unpacked it, and saw her mother-in-law looking up at the sky.

"It's a habit, and I can't fall asleep even if I lie down. Bai Yunxi looked at Mrs. Du who was still wearing a jacket, her fingers were red from the cold, "It's cold, it's time to wear cotton clothes, you don't have to wait until it snows to wear them."

"I know, mom, it's more convenient to work if you wear thinner clothes. "

Mrs. Du stuffed the firewood into the stove and raised her head.

"Maybe it's because of the red dates and syrup. My wife feels that this year's body is much stronger than in previous years, and she is not as afraid of the cold as before."

As she said this, Mrs. Du clenched her fist to show that she was very strong.

Listening to Mrs. Du's tone, Bai Yunxi curled her lips.

She wasted 30 points to exchange for three bottles of health pills, mixed them in water and gave them to her family. Even Mrs. Du felt that her body was stronger, and the effect was very good.

"Let's make do with this year's cotton clothes. The weather is getting colder and colder. The most important thing for us is to store food. We have enough food to survive the winter safely.

"Wait until the beginning of next spring, and we will work hard for a year. Not only do we have to store enough food, but we also have to wear new cotton-padded jackets and live in a spacious house."

In his spare time, Bai Yunxi had already sorted out the original owner's memories.

Although cotton is not too expensive, it is very common in the countryside to wear a cotton-padded jacket for three years.

Even so, those poor families, every winter, have no extra money to buy cotton, and can only stuff reed fluff and shredded hemp into their cotton-padded clothes.

Because of the relationship with the old scholar, although their family does not have to replace new cotton every year, they always add a layer of new cotton every time they wash and remove the old cotton to make cotton shoe pads.

Almost one-third of the amount is replaced every year, and because of this, their cotton-padded clothes are always warmer than others.

So, even if they don’t replace new cotton this year, it won’t be too cold. Except for the little girl Yaya, whose cotton-padded clothes are brand new cotton, their family all wear last year’s old cotton-padded clothes.

Listening to her mother-in-law’s bold words, Mrs. Du didn’t think Bai Yunxi was bragging at all.

“Daughter-in-law, listen to your mother’s arrangements. Let’s work hard together to live a good life.”

During this period, the mother-in-law has done a lot of practical things with the family and stored a lot of food.

Although it is still far from a winter’s food, it is already heaven compared to the days when they had no food to eat.

"Sister-in-law is right. Even Aunt Song said that if you follow me, you can eat meat."

As she was talking, Li came back from the backyard with a big cabbage in her hand.

"Sister-in-law, the cabbage you asked for."

Bai Yunxi couldn't help laughing at Li's innocent tone. After washing up, she continued to practice her Eight-part Vajra Kung Fu.

Li went to fetch water with a shoulder pole.

Because of the sudden change in the weather, Bai Anyan felt a sense of urgency. On weekdays, he chopped a load of firewood every morning. Today, he had chopped two loads of firewood and came back.

After breakfast, the family took their tools and continued to go into the mountains to look for food.

The weather suddenly turned cold, and Bai Yunxi felt the same urgency, but she couldn't bring the sense of urgency to her family, lest it make people anxious.
