The cold winter month.

A heavy snow dyed a large area of ​​Guanzhong white.

The Chang'an City area is covered with silver in the snow and ice, presenting a different kind of beauty.

In previous years, this was definitely not a good thing, after all, charcoal costs money.

To put it bluntly, in winter, rich families can burn charcoal and keep warm, and have good houses to protect against wind and snow, and warm furs. But the poor people not only do not have good houses, but also do not have furs, but also cannot afford charcoal.

Most of them can only bear it.

But today is obviously different.

This year is a good year. Although the snow is falling more heavily than in previous years and the climate is colder than in previous years, it has been a bumper harvest and income has increased. This year, almost every household has surplus money and every household has surplus food.

Not only that, it also made new clothes rare.

If this is not enough, then the promotion of free coal use in winter will make it impossible to be sad this winter.

This also made Li Chengqian breathe a sigh of relief.

The emperor travels, and the prince supervises the country.

On the day his parents left, as the prince, he felt not only worried about his parents' safety, but also heavy pressure.

Because it is cold and winter is coming, this time of year is the most difficult time to get hit, and frostbite and death occur from time to time.

Fortunately, these are all past tense.

Although air conditioners cannot be popularized, heating will only be installed in Da'an Palace, but compared with previous years, everyone has a better foundation in keeping warm.

Have clothes.

Have food.

The houses were basically repaired before the heavy snow in winter.

The most fundamental thing is to have a fire kang and free coal use.

Despite the tight time and the serious shortage of supply of bricks, stone and cement, the military and civilian cooperation and everyone worked together, the kang successfully entered thousands of households.

It’s nothing more than the fact that there is no brick and stone cement and it is replaced by acre bricks.

Coal is now made of honeycomb coal, which is reported in the village at the foot of Mount Li. For this reason, a special coal stove was born, which was very convenient for boiling water and eating a hot pot.

And this situation is not just in Chang'an.

According to reports reported from various places, the situation in the Youshuo generation in the north is also good. Although the people's foundation is not as good as that in Chang'an, the fire kang and free coal still bring enough warmth, which greatly reduces the disaster in this severe winter.

Therefore, the current saying "Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest" is just right.

Compared with previous years, heavy snow this year is auspicious, which can freeze and kill insect egg diseases and ensure a bumper harvest in the coming year.

But whenever he is free, he still can't help but miss his father and mother, silently looking forward to their return.

After all, he is only in his teens.

Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came from the wind and snow: "Report, Your Majesty successfully returned to Chang'an, Report, the Empress successfully returned to Chang'an..."

"What, Your Majesty and the Empress return to Chang'an?"

"That's great. Your Majesty is back, and the Empress is back too!"

“…”

This is Weiyin Township, the coast of the Wei River, and it is also the most advanced productivity of the Tang Dynasty.

From the earliest coking, iron smelting, cement, to later papermaking and printing, almost all of them are here.

Today, Li Chengqian specially led officials to inspect and express condolences.

Therefore, when the news came, the sound of thunder suddenly echoed, not only the workers around were happy, but also the officials.

Li Chengqian could not hide his excitement: "The news is true, is the father and mother really back?"

"Go back to Your Highness, Your Majesty, Empress, and Your Highness, all returned safely. You are now in the village of Mount Li." The young soldier's red smile in the snow looked particularly brilliant.

Li Chengqian was overjoyed: "Okay, everyone, I have something to do here, I will not go back to the city with you for the time being. Come and prepare horses."

After speaking, a group of people rushed into the wind and snow as they said respectfully.

At this time, Mount Li was also filled with joy.

It is popular to use coal for free in the surrounding area of ​​Chang'an City, so the village will naturally not be bad.

The one hundred small buildings completed as required are enough to allow the villagers in the village to have a stronger foundation for cold protection in this cold winter.

Originally, at this time, everyone was working and studying, and they gathered at the stove to chat and soles of their shoes when they were fine. When they heard that the father-in-law and his wife were back, all the staff were dispatched.

"Huh, it's so cold!"

"Long time no see, thank you for your hard work, come, come here, bring some small gifts, everyone chooses it!"

Looking at the excited young and old people around, Chen Yuan was also quite excited. He blew the heat and let people carry out the beautiful shell snails one by one.

Li Chengqian galloped over quickly and saw the lively scene: "Dad, mother..."

The poor baby almost cried with tears in his eyes.

Queen Changsun turned her head and looked over, and soon smiled: "Come on, come here, mother and see."

"Mom..." Li Chengqian quickly stepped forward.

Queen Changsun reached out to touch her and smiled and said, "I've lost weight and become energetic." After that, she took off her down jacket.

Li Er quickly stopped him: "Okay, okay, what can you do? If you suffer from the cold, wouldn't it make our son even more uncomfortable?"

While speaking, she put on Queen Changsun, pulled the zipper, took off her body, exchanged the fur on Li Chengqian, rubbed her hands and smiled: "How about it, boy, isn't it warmer to have a down jacket?"

Li Chengqian wiped his eyes and smiled with red eyes: "Warm, light and warm, but it's better for my father to wear it, my son is fine."

"I know you're fine, I'm fine either!" Li Er laughed, patted Li Chengqian's shoulder, and finally let out a long sigh and asked, "Are they all okay?"

Li Chengqian nodded: "Everything is good."

"That's good, okay. This time I went to the beach, your mother picked up a lot of beautiful shells and conchs. You can also pick a few."

As long as it's all good.

Although there are only two words, it is enough to express everything.

So Li Er patted Li Chengqian on the shoulder again, and then Li Chengqian joined the ranks of selecting gifts.

About half an hour later, the crowd dispersed and the scene returned to peace.

The villa is lived in.

These days when I was away, Liu Zhilan and others have been living here, taking care of themselves and maintaining popularity on the other hand.

It is also comfortable inside. Although there is neither a kang nor heating, it is warm with the air conditioner on.

And at this time, nothing can make people feel more happy than eating a hot pot.

So a group of people came to the restaurant to prepare, and Li Er simply took Queen Changsun to the greenhouse with Chen Yuan.

There are already a lot of vegetables in the greenhouse, including spinach, coriander, Chinese cabbage, and a piece of green.

The cucumber is not healed yet, only as long as the fingers, the tomatoes are not red yet, but they are slightly white in the blue, but they must have eaten them before the New Year.

Li Er laughed and rolled up his sleeves on the spot: "It's great. It's cold and cold, even if you have a dragon's liver and phoenix brain, you're not as happy as eating green with big mouthfuls."

"That's right, but it's really cold. I was diving and surfing by the beach the day before yesterday!" Queen Changsun rubbed her hands and said with a smile.

Chen Yuan laughed: "Sister-in-law is really. If you didn't say you missed home and wanted to come back, maybe we'd be still by the beach now, and now we're talking about this again."

"Where is it?" Queen Changsun glanced at her and said angrily: "Sister-in-law didn't say that. She originally wanted to play for a while, but you just quarreled and insisted on coming back."

Chen Yuan yelled and didn't say anything.

Li Er smiled and said, "Okay, okay, you didn't say anything, you didn't say anything, pick the vegetables quickly, seafood every day, seafood every meal, my mouth is about to bubble!"
