Chapter 137 Radish and Cabbage

The most important thing is that there is no cotton now. People use kapok, hemp and even reed catkins, and the warmth-keeping effect of these things is really not very good.

Of course, the rich wear various furs. Fur coats made of fox, mink, leopard and other animals are light and warm, which is the only choice for the rich in winter.

As soon as the weather turned cold, the General's Mansion, her two senior brothers, and Principal Chu all sent her furs, fearing that she would catch a cold. However, although the furs were good, they were inconvenient to move around in, and there was no air conditioning here. When she was in Qinglian Village, she basically stayed in the house in winter, either on the kang or on the way to the kang, and she rarely moved, so she was naturally not afraid of the cold.

It’s not possible now. Even if Senior Brother Yun sent two more braziers to her room, it would only keep her room warm. She still has to go to school.

I won't talk about the road, the school wasn't warm either. What do people believe nowadays? So when God wants to give a man a great responsibility, he must first make his mind suffer, his muscles and bones tired, his body hungry, his body empty, and his actions frustrated...

What is needed is a firm determination and the power of will overcoming the flesh. She saw some students whose lips were frozen purple, but they still worked hard in reciting and writing.

The weather was too cold and sometimes the ink froze. Fortunately, there was hot water next to the school. In addition to grinding ink, you could also drink a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up when it was too cold.

If some students hadn't had uncontrollable shaking hands while drinking water, Shu Xiaoxiao would have thought they were not cold!

However, the benefits of hot water are mixed. The upside is that at least there is a way to warm up the body. The downside is that if you drink too much water, you will easily go to the toilet. After a trip to the toilet, the heat generated by drinking hot water has basically dissipated, so winter is really hard to endure!

Shu Xiaoxiao quickly researched gloves, hats and other warmth-keeping artifacts. These things are simple and easy to make, but the warmth-keeping effect is excellent. Although it is not convenient to write with gloves on, it is really nice when memorizing!

Especially for the military class, it is inconvenient to bring heaters. With gloves, it is really much more convenient for them. At least their hands will not be so cold that they cannot hold the bow.

As the weather gets colder, it’s time to harvest the vegetables in the fields.

Before, after the sweet potatoes were harvested, the empty land was left. Mr. Chu asked what to plant in the back mountain. If it was wheat, it would be necessary to fertilize in advance and prepare for sowing.

At that time, Shu Xiaoxiao thought that wheat had been planted in the back mountain, and when she thought of the juicy radishes, she casually suggested planting radishes and cabbages.

As a result, all the nearly 50 acres of land in the back mountain, after being fertilized by Mr. Chu, were planted with cabbage and radishes. Shu Xiaoxiao was shocked, but fortunately, cabbage and radishes are hardy.

These dishes can be digested in the academy cafeteria, so Shu Xiaoxiao doesn't worry about not being able to finish them.

Although Shu Xiaoxiao did not spend much effort on growing these cabbages and radishes, with the help of the ginseng treasure and her ability to communicate with plants, these radishes and cabbages grew very well.

The sun has been in a rare good mood these past two days, so Shu Xiaoxiao prepared to harvest the radishes and cabbages to prevent them from snowing and freezing.

After harvesting, I also have to tell Huo Feng that the pork ribs stewed with radish can be served.

The students were not responsible for the harvest this time. Dean Chu disliked their clumsiness and had already found people to come and pull the radishes.

These things may seem like a lot, but Chief Chu only found some good farmers who are used to farm work, so they can work very quickly.

Shu Xiaoxiao took the radish and ate it raw. It tasted tender and refreshing, with a slightly spicy flavor. She became addicted to it.

Shu Xiaoxiao immediately decided to pickle some radish strips and sauerkraut.

Next year, we can basically have free chili peppers, so pickled fish must be prepared! And the crispy and refreshing radish strips must be prepared!
