v4 Chapter 6: That valley, pleasant winter
As long as you pass through this hidden path, you will immediately find a whole vast valley, with a stream flowing through it. The far end of the stream is a waterfall. The neighborhood is very cool, and there is water mist splashing from time to time.
Dong Yi carefully inspected the valley. There is a circle of peaks around the valley. This valley is a relatively complete flat land. The valley is long and narrow. , There is only one entrance in the whole valley, so there is almost no trace of anyone here. If you want to build a village here, the entrance must be handled well, and here you have to imitate the Qin family and the Zuo family. Surrounded by high walls, or who knows if there will be beasts rushing down from the mountain?
Fortunately, this place was only built as a retreat. If you want to live here for a long time, I am afraid that more preventive measures must be taken.
After staying in the valley for a day, Dong Yi just left. This time the target is Linchuan County. From here to Linchuan County, I don’t know how many mountains to climb, especially the mountain The problem, he has to go around the same way, there is no way to do it like Yongjia County, and it will not be a problem to forcibly turn over.
It will be three days after Dong Yi leaves this mountain range. Looking at his embarrassment, Dong Yi smiles bitterly in his heart.
When he finally entered a small town, he found out after many inquiries that it was still ten days away from the county seat. Hearing that, Dong Yi frowned and had no choice but to buy a horse , leave quickly.
According to the principle of proximity, to buy that valley should just go to the county seat.
Unfortunately, after Dong Yi arrived at the county office after all the hard work, he entered the county office in the name of buying a mountain. He didn't even see the valley in the county office's geographic map, but went to the surrounding area. The county government did not find out, so Dong Yi had no choice but to buy the nearest mountain. Because it is remote, inaccessible, and the mountains are steep, it is impossible to build houses or cultivate fields, so the price is not expensive. Dong Yi only paid eight or nine hundred taels to buy a mountain peak. He went to three county offices and bought all the nearby mountains. Only then did Dong Yi realize that the valley seemed to be a deserted place. The known area is generally, or the entrance there is too hidden, so it does not appear on the geographical map.
Oh, I didn't expect him to have such luck to find such a valley.
Because of this knowledge, Dong Yi couldn't sit still, worried that others would find it there, and took those tasteless mountain deeds to return quickly, and he must prepare the materials for building the house this year After the year, he will transport these things and start to build the village. At that time, I am afraid that he will have to bring a few people there. Otherwise, he alone does not know that it will take until the year of the monkey and the horse to build the village, but before... Dong Chenghu said that this is the last retreat for the Dong family. I'm afraid that they have to choose a reliable person to come, and I don't know how to choose.
Dong Yi sighed, and went directly across Qingping Mountain from this valley to Cuizhu Mountain. In this way, it would definitely take only one month of effort to reach Cuizhu Mountain. , As for things like danger, Dong Yi, who has been walking outside all the year round, has long been taken seriously.
Thick curtains have been hung on the doors of all the houses in Dong's house to keep the wind and snow out. The little babies, one is Dong Qinyan, who is just one year old, and the other is Dong Yunlan's eight-month-old son Yang Zixuan. This child was taken care of by Mrs. Mi when she was born, and Dong Yunlan didn't need to worry about it. Because Mrs. Mi didn't come to Dong's house often, Therefore, Gu Shuixiu rarely sees this child. Now that winter is here, Mrs. Mi is not feeling well, so the child will be taken care of by Dong Yunlan.
Gu Shuixiu was worried that she would be busy teaching embroidery by herself, serving her mother-in-law, and taking care of her son. If she was too busy, she asked Dong Yunlan to bring her child and put her with Dong Qinyan Keeping up, the two children are also more lively together.
But after the two children were put together, Gu Shuixiu finally realized that something was wrong. Compared with Yang Zixuan, Dong Qinyan seemed like an adult, not that she did something out of the ordinary. It's because she has been quiet all the time. Gu Shuixiu puts a gadget in front of them, and Yang Zixuan will immediately reach out to grab it and play with interest for most of the day.
Dong Qinyan was expressionless, not interested in these things. She will grab it, and at this time Dong Qinyan will obediently give him the toy. You must know that Dong Qinyan is four months older than Yang Zixuan, Yang Zixuan still can't climb, and Dong Qinyan can already tremble. Walk by yourself.
With such a big gap, to say that Dong Qinyan was afraid of Yang Zixuan, Gu Shuixiu would not believe it if she was beaten to death. It is precisely because of this that Gu Shuixiu thought of Dong Qinyan more and more, and she did not know the character of this child. With whom?
Dong Yunlan has been surprised from the beginning, and now she is accustomed to it, and she does not know what she thinks. Sometimes Dong Qinyan walks around them with small toys, and Dong Yunlan will tease them. Little guy, let her help with something, every time Dong Qinyan can put the right thing in front of Dong Qinyan, which amazes everyone.
Gu Shuixiu made some snacks for everyone in the kitchen, made glutinous rice cakes with glutinous rice and sesame powder, mixed with icing sugar, and made some sweets with pickled sweet-scented osmanthus syrup Porridge is the afternoon tea for everyone. This is the most enjoyable time for Dong Yunlan and others.
Before eating, no matter how hardworking Dong Yunlan is, she has to put down her work and greet Dong Qingqing and Dong Youyou to come and eat together.
Gu Shuixiu fed Dong Qinyan and Yang Zixuan one bite at a time with sweet porridge.
Dong Yunlan said with a look of enjoyment: "Sister-in-law, you can eat it yourself, isn't there Cuixi and the others! Every time you do it yourself, you can see how many Cuixi and the others are standing there. Awkward!"
Dong Yulan motioned Gu Shuixiu to look at Cuixi and Jingjing, and sure enough, the two of them were on the verge of speaking, Gu Shuixiu said with a smile, "There's still a lot left in the kitchen, let's go eat first, After eating, come over to help me take care of the children, and also ask Cuifu to give some to Yang Yi, Qi, Dongshan and the others to eat, and everyone will have a little bit of it, so just try it."
