Becoming a stepmother of three children gives me space

Chapter 107: The Long Winter, the One You Wait For Appears

The winter in the northwest is particularly long, with endless north winds and heavy snow. Looking around, the world is submerged in silver.

Without modern mechanical snowplows to clear the roads, the dilapidated roads are even worse.

The people were trapped in their homes, unable to go out. Their houses collapsed, they fell sick, and they lacked food and clothing. There was no disaster relief team, so they had to rely on themselves. The only thing they couldn't handle was a new grave in the wilderness.

The most difficult period was from the first month of the lunar year to mid-February. By the end of February, when the weather warmed up and traffic was barely restored, the county government sent runners to escort food to various villages and towns for disaster relief.

The yamen runner who came to Tangjia Village was an acquaintance. He brought Xiao Yunxi a lot of news.

This winter in the northwest is colder than usual, and many people have died, countless of them freezing to death or starving to death. The losses in Luochuan County are very small. Apart from the direct losses caused by the collapse of houses, there are no deaths from freezing or starvation.

"My Lord asked me to lead the people of the entire county to thank Madam Xiao for their help. Without you, I'm afraid this winter would have been difficult."

Xiao Yunxi said:

"That's because Lord Murong is a good official. Otherwise, even if he had money, he wouldn't be able to help the people."

Before winter came, Murong Chen organized his men.

Houses in all villages and towns across the county were inspected, and those that needed reinforcement were reinforced, and those that were uninhabitable were all resettled before winter came, which reduced the losses.

At that time, the county was short of funds.

Xiao Yunxi and Zheng Tianming generously donated a sum of money, but in the final analysis, it was Murong Chen who thought of doing things for the people, and they were just icing on the cake.

At the end of February,

The workshop officially opened. On the first day of work, many people brought vegetables and eggs from home and gave them to Xiao Yunxi as a token of gratitude.

She was confused, and it was Li Lanhua who told her,

People die every winter in the villages around Dongshan Town. However, this year, not only did no one die, but after the winter break, many people gained weight, which was absolutely impossible in the past.

In winter, if you don't do farm work, you will just lie down and reduce your energy consumption, eat less, and you will only lose weight.

This year, Xiao Yunxi's workshop provides jobs for the poorer families in the surrounding area. Now that their family conditions have improved and they have food to eat in the winter, won't they gain weight?

The workers didn't understand the big principles. They just knew that they didn't starve or freeze to death because of Xiao Yunxi. Giving her some vegetables and eggs from home was a token of her kindness. They had to work even harder.

Xiao Yunxi was quite emotional. Most people were simple and worthy of gratitude. Everything she did was worth it.

The village's external traffic has been restored. After staying at home for so long, Xiao Yunxi wants to go out for a walk, otherwise her body will soon become moldy.

Zhou Jin said that there would be a temple fair at Huatang Temple in March, and she decided to take the children there to have some fun so that they wouldn't stay in the laboratory and refuse to go out.

Xiao Yunxi is now like an old mother who discovers her children are addicted to mobile game consoles. She is eager to take them out for a walk to help them develop morally, intellectually, physically, aesthetically, and labor-intensively.

Fucheng,

Linglong Inn,

Butler Luo stood aside, bent over, his face pale. The man in black in front of him covered his face, and his voice was cold and chilling.

"His Highness is very dissatisfied. Considering that you have followed him for many years, I will give you a chance to atone for your sins."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Butler Luo immediately knelt on the ground, tears of gratitude.

Tangjia Village,

Zhou Jin was chopping bamboo. The children needed knives for an experiment. He heard a low whistle. He looked inside the house. Xiao Yunxi was not there. He put down his hatchet and went around to the bamboo forest behind the village.

The secret guards had already been waiting.

"Sir, those people have appeared."

Zhou Jin's face flushed rarely:

"Are you sure it's them?"

"He was in charge of the surveillance on Wednesday. He confirmed it, but those people were very alert and couldn't get close. The number of people is unknown."

"No problem, just take action."

Zhou Jin didn't want evidence, nor did he need a living person. He just needed to confirm that those people were related to the eldest princess. That was enough!
