I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

This winter, some people in Anzhou have solved the problem of food and clothing, but more refugees have poured in and are short of clothes.

It’s really cold!

Ji Xiaobei has moved last year's big stove into the house.

Fu Jichang is as busy as ever.

But no matter how busy he is, he will go back to Mingyi Lane at night.

That day, Fu Jichang suddenly received an imperial edict summoning him to the palace.

Fu Jichang has already prepared this year's planting summary and next year's planting plan on the West Mountain. After discussing with Lord Cao, he is also preparing to report to the emperor.

At the same time, Ji Xiaobei also received an invitation letter from Princess Qing.

Invite her to the Prince Qing's Mansion to appreciate plum blossoms and play polo.

She was also asked to bring a male and female companion.

Ji Xiaobei: She originally wanted to take Jiaojiao with her. She had little contact with these noble ladies, and it would save her trouble if she took Jiaojiao with her.

There is no male companion!

If it really doesn't work, let Jiaojiao be the male companion.

Jiaojiao curled her lips and said, "I'm a woman. If you want a male partner to play polo, take Fu Jichang with you!"

Ji Xiaobei: Forget it, I won’t play polo anymore, okay?

That night, after Fu Jichang had dinner with Ji Xiaobei, he said, "The day after tomorrow, I will go to the palace. The emperor asked me to bring Miss Ji with me. Prince Yongding mentioned you many times in front of the emperor..."

Ji Xiaobei smiled and said, "I won't go. Princess Qing has asked me to go to appreciate plum blossoms and play polo the day after tomorrow... I want to go to Princess Qing's banquet!"

Fu Jichang: That’s perfect!

"Have you finished reading your book? Lend it to me!" Fu Jichang saw that Ji Xiaobei had changed to a new one.

Ji Xiaobei handed him the book without hesitation: "Here... give it back to me after you finish reading it. I need to review it when I have nothing to do..."

A smile appeared on Fu Jichang's face: Who said Ji Xiaobei doesn't read? Now he is addicted to books!

He took the book proudly and returned to his yard.

Lying on the bed, tossing and turning, can't understand?

Just like a ghost painting a symbol, a few strokes were enough to draw a word...

The next day at noon, during lunch time, he took his book and rode as fast as he could to the South City.

Lian Feng took Fu Jichang's book, read it carefully, and murmured:

A small peasant girl travels through time, and a cold and powerful official washes the sheets every day...

There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, and he flipped through the book to see what was inside.

He sat cross-legged on the bed, watching with great interest.

"Hey, hey, hey, tell me, what is it written?" Fu Jichang asked, pulling his sleeve.

"Don't move, hahaha, wait until I finish reading this part..." Lian Feng laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back.

Fu Jichang was so anxious that his face turned red.

After a while, Lian Feng's smile disappeared and his face turned red.

"Where did you get this book?" he asked.

"What's wrong? Can you tell me what it's written?" Fu Jichang went to grab the book.

"If you promise to lend it to me, I will tell you!" Lian Feng leaned over to block the book.

"Forget it, if you don't want to talk, forget it. I have something else to do!"

Fu Jichang pretended to be annoyed and tried to grab the book again.

Lian Feng smiled and said, "This book is interesting. Both men and women will love to read it. It is much better than a storyteller's book." Lian Feng pulled out a handwritten book from under the pillow. "It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. This is for you to read. Don't lose it. It is Miss Ji's book!"

Fu Jichang gritted his teeth and said: How come Miss Ji's book is here with you and you have put it under your pillow?

Fu Jichang snatched the two books, shook his sleeves and said, "Thank you very much, don't give me away!"

Lian Feng leaned out and shouted, "When you've finished reading it, don't forget to lend it to me!"

……

Fu Jichang returned to the government office without even having dinner. He took out the book that Lian Feng had given him, which turned out to be a simplified and traditional Chinese dictionary.

Fu Jichang was delighted: With this, I can understand it, right?

He was wrong. He needed to learn the corresponding characters first.

Fu Jichang had a strong learning ability and a very good memory. After spending an afternoon flipping through the books, he had almost recognized some simple and commonly used characters.

But I still can't understand Ji Xiaobei's book.

He put it in the drawer and planned to study it when he had time.

He had heard a long time ago that Ji Xiaobei asked Lian Feng to get this dictionary and also taught Ma Xiaoqi to recognize simplified Chinese characters.

I heard that Liang Yuyao also met a lot of them.

Huang Po is a skilled doctor, and I heard that she also read the book brought by Ji Xiaobei.

He secretly made up his mind to learn it.

He wanted to see what Ji Xiaobei's world was like.

It can also educate Guoguo better.

He doesn’t understand any of the new words Guoguo says now.

He couldn't figure out whether there was a generation gap between him and Guoguo, or whether Guoguo had learned new words from that world.

In short, in order to get closer to Ji Xiaobei, learning simplified Chinese is urgent.

At night, he read by lamplight until late at night.

Even when he went to the capital, he carried it with him.

Liang Yuyao knew that Ji Xiaobei was going to the capital, so she went to Mingyi Lane with Mrs. Lin to pick up the children.

After Shitou and Liang Yuyao got married, they used their savings to buy a small courtyard not far from the textile workshop.

This was the first property purchased by the young couple.

Mrs. Lin now lives in their yard.

The two little ones were very happy to see Liang Yuyao. They hadn't seen Mr. Liang for a long time.

"Mr. Liang..." Zheng Zheng shouted.

Liang Yu stroked his little head and asked, "Think about it again, what is Mr. Guan Liang called now?"

Zheng Zheng suddenly remembered: Mother said that now that Mr. and Uncle Shitou are married, he should call her Aunt.

"Aunt!" Zhengzheng and Guoguo called sweetly.

Liang Yuyao took out a butterfly silk flower and put it on Guoguo's head. Guoguo ran around in the yard happily.

She bought a wooden spinning top for Zhengzheng, and Zhengzheng squatted on the ground and had a lot of fun playing with it.

"Yuyao, thank you for your help..."

Ji Xiaobei said while holding Yu Yao's hand.

"Sister, we are all family, what are you saying?" Liang Yu shook her head a little fatter, her face became fuller, and she looked like a little girl.

"How are you? Don't get too tired. Let Dongniu and his wife take care of the textile workshop. Aunt Song is here at the handicraft workshop. Don't work too hard."

Ji Xiaobei said.

"Sister, don't worry, I'm not doing any physical work, I'm just talking, it's not tiring!"

Liang Yu shook his head and laughed.

Ji Xiaobei teased her: "You are now a great contributor to the Ji family. If you get tired, mother will fight me to the death..."

The two of them burst into laughter.

Mrs. Lin tilted her head and said, "You keep running around all day. When are you going to get married?"

Ji Xiaobei: What are you saying to spoil the fun?

Liang Yuyao saw Ji Xiaobei glaring at Mrs. Lin, and said with a smile: "Sister, you know what's going on, mother, don't worry!"

Liang Yuyao took the two children away.

Tonight, Ji Xiaobei was the only one in Mingyi Lane.

Fu Jichang was busy until very late before returning to Mingyi Lane.

He knocked on the door of Ji Xiaobei's yard.

Ji Xiaobei was snuggling in the warm bed and really didn't want to get up to open the door for him.

"Go to bed!"

Ji Xiaobei straightened the window a little and shouted outside.
