Otherworldly Days

Chapter 238

Autumn has gone quietly, and this year's winter has come.

There are classes in the academy, and there are no classes in winter. Anyone who wants to come can come here to listen to the teacher's lectures. No matter if it is a child or an adult, the class is only held for one hour a day.As long as it is not snowing, classes will be held normally, and if it is snowing, classes will be suspended.

The winter study plan was proposed by Cao Xiangnan, and all the people under him went there.There is no work in the fields at this time, and there are many idle people in the village, and some of them follow along to join in the fun. Even adults in neighboring villages send their children over, and many people come to the two classes at once. The children One class, one class for adults.

After discussion, it was decided that Zheng Shubo will not leave the academy for a short period of time in the class where Zheng Shubo takes care of the children. He will stay here as a teacher. It would be best if he takes care of the children in the class. children.As for the adult's class, Cao Wenxuan took it. It happened that he was going to leave Caojia Village after the spring, and there would be a lot of work after the spring, so the adults might not be able to come to class.

Fortunately, the two classrooms in the front are big enough to accommodate so many people. There are tables and benches inside, and blackboards nailed to the walls. This is a simple blackboard made of wooden boards painted with ink. , for writing purposes.

Considering that not everyone will have books in their hands, Cao Xiangnan thought it better to adopt the simplest modern classroom model, brush the blackboard and directly write on it with chalk, so that the people sitting below can know Mr. What are you talking about.

Then I took a little thought and successfully made chalk out of limestone for writing on the blackboard.

Books and paper are still very expensive for many people in this era. For many people, it is better to spend money to buy two catties of pork than to spend money on these things. This is probably what it means.This reminded him of his tossing paper. After the spring of next year, he can put the papermaking on the agenda. If he can produce paper himself, half of the paper for the children in the academy will be solved in the future.

Eight months later, Qi Wanfeng's belly grew as big as a balloon, and he became even fatter.After the winter, his belly was eight to nine months old. In the following days, he often woke up with cramps at night, couldn't sleep well at night, and his energy was poor during the day. Cao Xiangnan didn't dare to leave home, so he could only stay in the The family takes care of Qi Wanfeng and guards this man.

Brothers in this world are also pregnant in October. In fact, it is said that they are pregnant in October. Some people will give birth in more than nine months, but in fact it is similar.

It just so happened that there were not too many patients at Dr. Luo's place at this time, so he went to pick up Dr. Luo to show it to others at home. Fortunately, the land was raised well in the previous period, and the fetal position was also correct. It's better.The latter symptoms are all normal symptoms of pregnancy, Cao Xiangnan can only take care of this person more carefully besides feeling distressed.

After the class started at the academy, Cao Xiangnan went to see it twice. Apart from the chaos at the beginning, order gradually became more orderly later on.

The arithmetic class that he planned to be in charge of was handed over to Liu Baishu. Liu Baishu learned arithmetic from him for a period of time when he came here, and there is no problem with basic arithmetic.Anyway, Liu Baishu is here, he will give Liu Baishu the lessons he prepared, and let Liu Baishu go to the academy to give lectures to everyone.

"I took the children." Aning said.

"Okay." Cao Xiangnan told the children to be obedient, and asked Xiangzi and Xuanxuan to take good care of their younger brothers.Outside the door is Liu Baishu who wants to go there together, Wang Dahu will go there with him, and Sun Bailian is going there with her two children.

Now that he knew Liu Baishu and Wang Dahu's concern, Cao Xiangnan didn't feel any surprise about it, and accepted it very naturally.Anyway, this world is like this, even if the two brothers are together, he may not feel anything strange.

Every day, Aning would take the children to the academy with Sun Bailian and the others. It was cold and it hadn't snowed yet. Just put on clothes. Cao Xiangnan didn't keep the children at home, and there was nothing to worry about if there were adults following him. of.

There was a carriage at home, and he didn't let them drive there. There was no reason for everyone to walk, but your family went to the academy in a carriage. He didn't want to raise the spoiled temperament of the children.Even if life is better now, the food and clothing at home will be better than those outside. It is also based on the standard of food and clothing, and it is not like wearing gold and silver and eating delicacies.

Seeing the children leaving with Liu Baishu and the others, Cao Xiangnan smiled and closed the gate of the yard without leaving the latch behind it, leaving the door open so that people who come back later could easily enter. He took the two dogs back home up.

It was getting colder day by day, the fireplace in the living room was burning, and the room was warm without feeling cold.The sofa is covered with a layer of soft cushions, making it more comfortable to sit on. After these days, what Qi Wanfeng likes most is to lean on the sofa halfway, with the back covered with soft cushions. Sometimes Cao Xiangnan will teach him to read and recognize books. Words, he sometimes sews small clothes by himself, and Cao Xiangnan will chat with him here at this time.

However, this person's spirit is not very good now, and he often falls asleep while talking to him, but he wakes up again after not sleeping for a while.

"Have the children and Aning gone?" Seeing Fulang walk in, Qi Wanfeng asked.

"Well, yes, I've already gone. It's better to go to the academy than to stay at home and make a fuss." Once the children left, the house became much quieter.

There are many people in the academy, and it is very lively there. The children like to go there, whether they study or play together, anyway, Cao Xiangnan doesn't care about them.

Cao Xiangnan took off the overcoat he was wearing, hung it on the back of a chair beside him, put some firewood into the fireplace, and put his hands in front of the fireplace to dry. As soon as he went out, his hands were cold and his body was also chilled.

Fortunately, knowing that the family uses a lot of firewood, I prepared a shed of firewood early, and there may be some land left after using it up this winter.

Qi Wanfeng laughed when he heard this, the children were more lively at home, but he was not used to the quiet walk this time.He covered his mouth and yawned. He didn't sleep well at night and woke up early. He was sleepy after breakfast.

"Are you sleepy, do you want to go back to sleep for a while?" Seeing someone yawning, Cao Xiangnan asked.

"I don't want to sleep yet. I'll sit here for a while. I can't fall asleep even if I lie down." Qi Wanfeng smiled and shook his head. He didn't really want to go back to the house.Sitting on the cushion, looking at Fu Lang, his eyes were full of happy smiles.

He was probably spoiled by his husband, and this body is getting more and more delicate. He was not so delicate when Huai An was in the past.But it may be that not long after An An was born, he went to work in the fields when it was still cold, and fell ill after a while, and her husband was not around at that time, and she brought a little one with her. If you let him do it, you will fall to the root of the disease.

After warming up his hands, he turned his head and saw Qi Wanfeng with a wandering look, "What are you thinking?" Cao Xiangnan asked with an expression that didn't seem like he was thinking of something happy.

"It's nothing." Qi Wanfeng shook his head. Seeing that Fulang was still looking at him with disbelief on his face, he smiled and said, "Thinking of the time when An An was born, the spring was still cold, was he born again at that time?" How long, I like to stick to me the most, I want to carry it during the day, cry when I put it down, and hold it at night when I sleep, and cry when I let it go."

"At that moment, I was thinking, how to raise this little brat who loves to cry, and I was worried again."

So he had to carry the child on his back during the day and sleep with the child in his arms at night. Everything was difficult for the mother and elder brother in the family, and it was also difficult to live in that family.

However, Cao Xiangnan heard bitterness that he didn't know from these words. He knew that Qi Wanfeng was in trouble in that family, and he was not very clear about some details.An An seemed to be born in February, and it was really cold that day.It's cold in the room, with a thin quilt, the child is naturally cold under the cover, and when it is cold on the bed, he will cry and refuse to sleep by himself.

"I'm sorry, I caused you and the child to suffer so much." Even though he was not him at that time, Cao Xiangnan still felt sorry for this person, and wished that he would have come here so that this person would not suffer so much.

Walked over to lean on Qi Wanfeng and sat on the sofa, stretched out his hand to hold his hand, held it in the palm of his hand, and said, "It won't happen anymore" The hardships you suffered before will never happen again.

There is a fireplace in the house to keep warm, and there are enough quilts. Even if the child is born in this cold winter, he is not afraid of the cold. The child does not know how many small clothes, hats and shoes are prepared.

"Yeah." Qi Wanfeng knew.

Cao Xiangnan talked with Qi Wanfeng for a while, fed him some snacks, and drank some warm water, probably because he was tired after eating food in his stomach.Seeing that the person behind was really sleepy, he helped him into the room, and then fell asleep after lying down on the bed.The children are not at home for a while, and there is nothing to do at home, so he also went to bed and slept with him for a while.

As soon as the person in his arms moved, he would wake up, and skillfully touched the person's stomach with his hands, coaxing the child in the belly.This rambunctious little villain made Cao Xiangnan even more determined to give him a spanking when he came out.

Until the person in the arms loosened his brows, knowing that the child in his stomach was making a fuss, Cao Xiangnan didn't take back his hand, but put his lower hand elsewhere to touch.I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that the skin of the person in my arms is becoming more and more delicate, and the touch feels better and better.

He spurned himself in his heart, but he didn't take back that unscrupulous hand. He touched it once and for all, a little distracted, but he couldn't do anything.

The bed was warm, and Cao Xiangnan didn't get up when he woke up, knowing that he slept with this person, he could sleep longer, and he knew that this person would wake up immediately when he got up and left.
