It was too cold when the snow was melting, and the sky was gloomy outside, and the lead clouds were low, and it was almost pressing onto the ground. Lewen Novels |

In this weather, everyone tried their best to cat at home. In the past, when there was no kang, everyone would have a pond at home, and then a group of people squeezed together to cook the fire, and chatted along the way.

At this time, it is also the best time to reflect who has a good relationship with others. If the fire pit of a family is full of people, the owner of the family must be a person with good personal relationships and can speak. If the family has a good relationship with others, the family will inevitably be neglected. Those families with strong fires must generally be families with more children and diligent families.

To roast the fire, you have to burn a lot of firewood. Even if firewood in the countryside is not expensive, you have to take your strength.

But this year is different.

This winter, most of the villagers in Zhangjiagou found work in the Zhang family. Even the old men, old ladies and children who did not do work for the Zhang family no longer stay at home.

The steaming room of Zhang's family has become the best place to go. There are many large stoves that keep cooking and steaming pasta every day. Everyone brings some needles and threads, sits in front of the stove, and can cook the fire while chatting, and then puts in the soles of shoes to sew clothes and so on.

I didn’t even have to go home at noon, so I brought a few nests. When it was almost time to eat, I put them on the stove and heated them in the kitchen to make two free bone soup. This meal was so beautiful. It was said that the Zhang family and son were really nice and generous.

Everyone came to the steaming room to roast the fire, and they would not stop them. They even provided everyone with free bone soup, which would be enough. Moreover, after steaming the pastry in the steaming room every day, everyone would take the hot water from the big pot home at will.

The little kids in the village no longer have to turn blue in winter and have long snot.

Zhang Chao also likes the lively steam room, which is much more comfortable than staying alone in the cave kang. It is too lonely to stay alone in the cave, without broadband or wifi, and there is nothing left. There is no TV signal, no radio signal, and the laptop and mobile phone are out of power.

Although Zhang Chao also has a solar charger, it is too slow to charge and it is inconvenient to be discovered. Especially these days, it is often rainy or even rainy and snowy, so it is difficult to charge it.

It is even difficult for Zhang Chao to read a book, but Zhangjiagou can't find a book at all.

Others can beat children on rainy days, but they are idle. Zhang Chao has no children and can't beat them even if they want to. At night, it's long night, others can blow the lights and make people feel intimate with their wife, but Zhang Chao has no wife either.

Later generations often say that the Internet makes people alienate themselves.

Zhang Chao now thinks this is very correct. With the Internet, people are immersed in the Internet. Make friends online. The Internet is becoming more and more developed. People can meet almost all needs online, whether it is socializing or anything else.

But in the Tang Dynasty, without wifi, it was equivalent to losing the entire world.

Zhang Chao can only return to this real society. If he doesn't communicate with others, he will become the loneliest person.

However, I was chatting with a group of old men and kids all day long, and I really had nothing in common.

"Lian'er, let's play cards!"

The stove was very hot, and it was very comfortable to roast, but it was also boring. Zhang Chao smiled at the Lianer sister beside him and said, although Qi Niang had not passed the door, the six rituals had completed the five rituals and the days were settled. Only after the new cellar was built, the wedding was officially welcomed.

Therefore, now the two girls of Lian'er and Lan'er are Zhang Chao's sisters.

The two girls' lives are much better now than before. They no longer have to follow their mother to help their lives in the village, nor do they have to wash dishes and do things. They are dressed much better. The two girls are now just making a female lover every day, which is also a preparation for getting married. An excellent girl must be better than a female lover.

However, the two girls seemed to be not talented in this regard. They embroidered a pillowcase and a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water, but they embroidered them into two fat ducks fighting.

"What are you playing? Are you going to run away faster or are you called a landlord?" Lan'er is younger, so she still loves to play. When she heard about playing cards, she immediately put down the needle and thread in her hand.

"Call the landlord, it happens to be the three of us."

Yesterday, Zhang Chaoxian was bored and made a deck of playing cards with thin wood chips. He pulled his two sisters to play for a long time. The two girls had learned it and both fell in love with this game.

"Brother has caught the flop. Do you want to call the landlord?" Lan'er looked at the good hand of cards in her hand and looked at Zhang Chao with a smile.

Zhang Chao looked at the card in his hand. He didn't have a single card, nor did he have a big or small landlord, but only a few straights, and it was interrupted. This is definitely not something that can be called.

"Don't call."

When Lan Niang heard this, she couldn't wait and said, "Call the landlord."

Lian'er looked at the cards in her hand and said, "There is a big landlord, one-on-two, three bears and one pair of leopards, a good card."

"Grab the landlord."

Lan Niang glared at her sister unhappily, then pouted, "I'll grab it again."

"Okay, you got it." Zhang Chao said to Lan'er with a smile. The landlord can call him three times, and now it is undoubtedly Lan'er has successfully grabbed the landlord.

Three trump cards are opened, one and two, two wolves, and a pretty good card.

The cards Zhang Chao made were actually similar to playing cards, but they had made some changes. In ancient China, cards were found, but they were just leaves. They were more complicated, with various animals and animals. It is said that they had them as early as the Spring and Autumn Period. After changes in previous dynasties, there were dozens of cards in a deck.

However, Zhang Chao thought that the card was more complicated and it was easier to play cards, so he directly made the cards, but he also made some changes.

The King of Big and Big has been changed to the Landlord of Big and Big.

jqk was changed to a wolf, leopard, and the original Zhang Chao wanted to use it, but thinking about it, the dragon could not be used randomly. The tiger was just a taboo, and Li Yuan's grandfather was called Li Hu. After Li Yuan became the emperor, he avoided various taboos. In the future, Hulao Pass would be changed to Wulao Pass, and Huben Lang would be changed to Wuben Lang General. Even tigers would be changed to big insects among the people. This is like after Li Shimin became emperor, there would be no Ministry of Civil Affairs, but the Ministry of Revenue.

Although the word "tiger" has not been completely avoided yet, Zhang Chao thinks it is better to avoid it in advance.

In ancient times, taboo avoidance was very strict. You had to avoid taboos for the emperor and your parents' names. When writing the names of the emperor or father, you had to write less or write a false word.

Even the tiger has to be called a big insect instead. The tiger must feel it is unfair and is innocently caught in the shooting.

Even the toilet is very innocent. The original name is Hu Zi, but because of the taboo, it was changed to Ma Zi. Later, it simply changed to a toilet.

Hu Zi initially had a chamber pot with a long mouth. When a man got up at night, he could directly face the mouth. Later, he changed to Ma Zi, and later, everyone called his girlfriend Ma Zi.

Holding the grass, Zhang Chao suddenly realized that the word Ma Zi originated like this and looks so good.

In short, the word "Tiger" was a taboo in the Tang Dynasty, so it must be avoided as much as possible.

Zhang Chao didn't plan to get a big worm on his playing cards. Then he would say, "A pair of leopards, someone else would say a pair of big worms to kill him." Oh, it's too inappropriate."

I went to Dragon and Tiger and changed it to Bear, Leopard and Wolf.

As for the big king, little king, big ghost, little ghost, they were directly changed to big landlords and small landlords.

The others are the same, and there are four colors such as square plum blossoms, including two, three, four, and five.

Even the rules of Doudizhu are the same, but the Doudizhu is no longer called Doudizhu.

Zhang Chao and the Lianlan sisters competed for landlords, and brought money. The bottom was a penny, and then it was multiple. The grab was doubled once, and the blow was doubled. Even the following three trump cards were doubled. If there was a landlord, it would have to doubled, and the flush and so on would have to doubled.

In short, playing this card tests arithmetic ability.

The old men and women are not very interested in this, but the children like to watch it very much. I have to say that people are smart, especially those children, who have never read books. But after only two days of watching Zhang Chao playing cards, he was able to recognize all the Arabic numerals from 2 to 10, and all four styles. He even learned the rules of Landlord.

When playing cards, these children always like to point fingers and give advice.

"Try it and eat her."

Zhang Chao followed the words of the military advisor beside him and made a second move, but Lan'er immediately threw away two cards.

"King Blast."

"Oh, the Rockets took off."

"Sanlang, what are the Rockets?"

"It's just an arrow with a fire."

"Then why are the two places mainly called Wangbo?"

"No reason."

Zhang Chao was furious by these naughty kids, and he really had a headache.

"Who can calculate how much I want to pay for this just now, then I will reward him with a penny!"

"I know, Brother Sanlang pays eight cents for this deal, and Sister Lan'er is a landlord. This deal doubles, and he will pay ten cents for this deal."

"Wrong, the trump card is all plum blossoms, and the flush should be doubled."

A group of kids were very active there.

"Goudan, tell me, how much do I want to pay?"

Goudan is a seven-year-old child, but he is the smartest among these children and has a very talented math.

"The bottom is divided into two texts. Sister Lan called the landlord once, and then robbed it twice, and robbed it twice, and robbed it twice, and robbed it twice, and then the trump card is doubled twice, which is eight times. Sister Lan has a king, and doubled it again, which is a total of sixteen times. The bottom is divided into two texts. Brother Sanlang will pay thirty-two texts, Sister Lian will also pay thirty-two texts, and Sister Lan will pay 64 cents."

Zhang Chao nodded with satisfaction. This dog is so smart. He has never read a book in a day, but he just gave me some advice. He is so genius.

Zhang Chao counted 32 cents for Lan'er, and then threw a penny to Goudan, "As a right answer, there is a prize."

"Thank you, Brother Sanlang."

Seeing his cheerful look, Zhang Chao couldn't help but think that there were many young children in the village. These children were not as old as being a child laborer in the workshop, but they were already sensible. They also had to help work in the fields during busy farming, and were responsible for taking care of their younger brothers and sisters in their spare time.

It’s a pity that you are like this and don’t study every day. When you grow up, you’re blind again. A child as smart as Goudan, who is talented in mathematics will definitely be buried in the future.

There is not even a private school in Zhangjiagou, or even Bailu Township.

Maybe I should pay some money to build a private school to give the children in Bailu Township a chance to read and read? When the private school is built, I can also train my child laborers. Workers who don’t know a single word will always be deficient.

As soon as this idea arose, it began to sprout.
