The whole family traveled through the hidden mountains, and the general always came to get the wool

After winter comes, it snows from time to time in the border town.

On the day when Su's father returned home from the military camp for the first time on leave, the border town had its first heavy snowfall since the beginning of winter.

The heavy snow began to fall in the middle of the night. Overnight, the border town seemed to have turned into a snowy city, with white everywhere.

Seeing that the snow on the ground was almost up to her calf height, Su's mother began to worry whether Su's father would come home today.

Su's mother was feeling conflicted. She was looking forward to Su's father coming home, but she was also worried that he might have an accident on his way home in this weather.

Fortunately, Dad Su did not disappoint Mom Su and returned home safely at noon that day.

Although it was much later than expected, I finally got home safely.

"Daddy, Ningning misses you so much."

As soon as Su's father entered the room, Ningning pounced on him, but Su's father dodged her.

"My dear girl, Daddy is cold, I will hold you later."

Dad Su’s head and clothes are all covered with snow, he’s almost like a snowman.

Then Father Su turned his gaze to Mother Su who was following behind An An and Ning Ning, "Wan Niang, I'm back."

"We're home, let's take off your clothes quickly." Su Maxi then helped Su Ba take off his coat.

But Father Su dodged and said, "No, this is dirty and cold. I'm going to take a shower and change clothes first."

Su's mother immediately arranged for someone to prepare hot water. Fortunately, there was always hot water in the kitchen during the winter. Knowing that Su's father would be back today, Su's mother asked the kitchen to boil more hot water.

Awen also came back with Su's father. Su's mother asked Nanny Sun to arrange bath water and clothes for Awen.

When Dad Su came out of the shower, Mom Su had already arranged lunch.

Considering that Su's father and Awen both like spicy food and the weather is relatively cold.

If the stir-fried dishes are served, they will get cold after a while because they are all solidified lard. What is prepared is a hot pot, which can be eaten with vegetables and meat.

There are few vegetables in the border town in winter. It was only after Su Weixi asked the village head to build a warm shed on the farm before winter that the Su family had fresh green vegetables to eat.

The shed was not big, but it was enough to provide the Su family with vegetables for the winter. Su's mother also asked Butler Sun to send some to the Shen Mansion and the General's Mansion.

At the dinner table, Su's father and Awen were wolfing down the food, leaving everyone stunned.

The dishes originally arranged by Su Ma were not enough for the hot pot, so she asked Sun Ma to go to the kitchen to get some vegetables and also asked her to bring more meat.

When Ah Wen was in the valley, he was used to eating at the same table with the Su family. Su's father and mother always treated him as their godson. Therefore, he was not restrained at all, and he and Su's father ate faster than each other.

"Can't you eat enough in the military camp? You look like you have been hungry for ten days or half a month." Su Ma asked worriedly.

"It can fill you up, but it's not as delicious as the food at home." Dad Su replied while eating.

"What do you usually eat in the barracks?"

“Just cabbage and radish, with two multi-grain steamed buns.” Awen replied.

"How can you be full with just this?" Su's mother felt sorry for Su's father and Awen, and tried to pick up some food for them.

"Hehe, we can eat our fill. We also have those canned meats that ma'am prepared. They taste so delicious when sandwiched between steamed buns." Awen said happily.

"Yes, you don't know, but the people who lived in the same room with me found out and rushed to eat them one after another. They were all eaten up in a few days." Dad Su felt heartbroken when he thought of the canned chili peppers that he had to save to eat slowly.

"Then bring more next time. Awen, eat more, you are still growing." After saying that, she picked up some food for Awen.

"Thank you ma'am."

Everyone was chatting happily at the dinner table, and Ningning kept pestering Su's father to ask about things in the military camp.

Everyone knew that when Su's father first arrived at the military camp, he was also bullied by some troublemakers. After all, Su's father was an airborne soldier.

But in the end they were all defeated by Su's father. It was very simple in the military camp, you just had to use force to conquer people.

After completing a few missions, everyone was conquered by Su's ability again, and with the canned chili that Su's father shared with everyone, they quickly became friends with most people.

After finishing his meal, Awen tactfully left.

Su Weixi also quickly took her younger brother and sister back to her own yard to play, so that she could have some time alone with her parents.

I haven't seen my parents for many days, so I definitely need to express my longing for them.

Ningning was just naive. She couldn't understand the looks in Su's parents' eyes and insisted on continuing to listen to Su's father talking about what happened in the military camp. She was suppressed by her sister with force.

After the two little guys finished their nap, they ran happily to find Dad Su.

An An was rather reserved and only said that she was going to take her homework to have her father Su check it.

Dad Su slept at home for one night and then went to the military camp with Awen.

This time, Su Ma prepared more things for them, including a lot of homemade Lao Gan Ma chili cans, pork jerky, and beef jerky.

Both Su's father and Awen were carrying two large bags full of things.

Su Weixi prepared two felt hats for Su's father and Awen respectively, which she and the embroiderer had made overnight.

When Su's father and the others came back, Su Weixi noticed that the two people's ears were red from the cold. This hat can protect their ears.

In modern times, this hat was once a cotton hat in the military's winter uniform. There are two ways to wear it. When the temperature is high, you can put away the ear protection on both sides; when the wind is strong and the temperature is low, put the ears down to prevent frostbite.

Su Weixi also prepared hand cream, face cream and frostbite cream for Su's father and others, all of which were added with spiritual spring water. The effects were many times better than ordinary ones.

Under the reluctant gazes of several people, Su Dad and Awen returned to the military camp again.

But what no one expected was that three days later, Su's father suddenly came back.

It turned out that the hat worn by Su's father was seen by the quartermaster, who thought it was very convenient and asked how to make it.

Dad Su knows the benefits of this hat and its origin.

But he had no idea how to do it, so the military camp gave him a vacation and asked him to come back and ask his family if they were willing to sell this method to the military camp.

After Su Weixi learned about it, he wrote the method on a piece of paper and gave it to Su's father.

But there is no question of whether to buy or not. The Su family is not short of money, and this is not complicated.

In fact, anyone who has seen this hat can find any embroiderer to make it.

The quartermaster asked this only because he knew that Su's father, the Duke of Zhenguo, and Xiao Yi had a good relationship, so he asked symbolically.

After getting the blueprints, Dad Su returned to the military camp. He came and went in a hurry.

After a while, Su Weixi went out and found that many people on the streets of the border town were also wearing felt hats.

According to Bai Youyou's explanation, the reason was that some people saw some soldiers patrolling near the border town wearing peculiarly shaped hats. Some merchants took notice of this and began to imitate them.

Su Weixi couldn't help but sigh: Whether in modern times or ancient times, businessmen are fast at copying things!

But this is just a small episode. Su Weixi's focus today is to discuss the issue of the potato snack bar with Bai Youyou.

Now that the weather is cold, fried skewers are not as popular, only the hot and sour noodles in the store are still selling well.

Bai Youyou asked Su Weixi to come out to ask her if she had noticed anything.
