Chapter 232 Mother is enjoying the good life with my daughter
Li Xiuxiu saw that her daughter looked lost and thought she was angry.
She looked at her daughter nervously, gently stroked her daughter's soft hair, and called softly: "My dear daughter, don't be angry. I know my daughter is filial.
However, you girls have delicate bodies and need to be well cared for. You are still young, and you will need to use these things every month for decades to come.
I have been using this cloth bag for more than ten years and I am already used to it. If I suddenly change it to something better, I will feel uncomfortable. So I will leave this to you. "
Yun Duo came back to her senses and looked at her mother's reluctant expression as she wanted to leave all the good things to her. She smiled and put the things in her hand back into Li Xiuxiu's hands.
"Mom, feel free to use it. The things in the space are enough for us mother and daughter to use for a lifetime. Just be careful. Used things need to be wrapped in the outer packaging and buried in the ground. Don't let anyone find it. Please keep these two bags safe. Don't be reluctant to give them away. If you don't have enough, ask me for more."
Li Xiuxiu looked at her sensible daughter and smiled with relief. "Okay, I'll listen to my daughter. I'm going to enjoy the happiness with my daughter."
Yun Duo looked at Li Xiuxiu's satisfied expression and suddenly remembered something. She took out another roll of toilet paper from the space.
"Mom, use this to wipe when you go to the toilet. It's soft and won't hurt your skin."
It wasn't that she was reluctant to take out toilet paper for her mother to use, but since she came to the ancient times, she had never used ancient toilets, so she completely forgot that there was no toilet paper here.
At this moment, she suddenly realized that she had no idea what her family members usually used to go to the toilet.
She suddenly remembered a novel she had read, which mentioned that poor families in ancient times usually used leaves or small wooden sticks to go to the toilet, while families with slightly better financial conditions would use straw paper similar to the yellow paper used when visiting graves. This kind of paper was very rough.
If used for visiting graves, the ancients would place the purchased yellow paper under a wooden hammer and an iron coin mold, and knock the shape of the money onto the paper before burning it for their deceased relatives.
Li Xiuxiu stroked the soft, white toilet paper her daughter handed to her, and couldn't help but sigh, "Duo'er, isn't it a pity to use such good paper to wipe your butt?"
Yun Duo glanced down at the snow-white toilet paper in her hand and thought to herself, it was just as her mother said, such paper was too conspicuous and would arouse suspicion if seen by others.
She thought about it, then sent the toilet paper back to the space, and then took out a roll of bamboo pulp natural paper from it. This kind of paper is darker in color, and even if it is discovered by others, it will not attract too much attention.
Yun Duo smiled and said to her mother, "Mom, try this. It's darker in color, like straw paper, but just as soft as the white one. Don't worry about wasting it. I still have a lot in my space."
Yun Duo made Li Xiuxiu another packet of Motherwort granules. After taking the medicine, Li Xiuxiu's stomach pain was relieved and she no longer had to worry about side leakage. She slept very soundly that night.
Just as the people were anxiously waiting, good news came from the city gate. The people who had just arrived outside Zhongzhou Prefecture or had been stranded for a few days happily lined up to enter the city.
When the people in Zhongzhou heard that the city gates were opened, many of them were ready to leave the city.
Both inside and outside the city were very busy. There were soldiers and runners at the city gate, checking and verifying the household registration and travel permits of the people entering the city. Those who passed the inspection would be allowed to pass directly without paying an entrance fee. The only condition for entering the city was that one could not delay or stay in the city.
The people did not want to stay, for fear of any trouble.
There were only a few inconspicuous shops open in the city, all with clearance sale signs hanging on them. The prices were very cheap, and passers-by who needed urgent items would buy some, but most of them did not stop as they were in a hurry.
Occasionally there are some steamed bun shops that are still open, and passers-by who don’t have enough dry food will buy some to eat on the road, but the price is several times more expensive.
Since the people from Yunjia Village only arrived here yesterday, there were already many people who had arrived earlier in front of them, so they could only line up at the back of the team entering the city.
They did not rush to line up, but followed the advice of the village chief and decided to use the stoves that had not yet been pulled out to make more dry food, preferably enough to last for two or three days. In this way, even if they encountered an emergency after entering the city and could not leave the city, they would have enough food reserves.
At the same time, the village chief also asked them to bring enough water for three or four days in case the city gate was closed when they entered the city and they could not get to the well in time.
The city does not allow so many people to set up temporary stoves to cook. If there is not enough water and food, they will starve. It’s okay for adults, but the elderly and children may not be able to survive.
After everything was ready, the village heads of several villages organized the queue.
Yunjia Village was in front, Tongshu Village was behind, with several other villages in the middle. The villagers lined up in a long line on the road outside the city gate.
In order to prevent others from cutting in line and considering the limited space in the queue, the people from these villages simply ate some dry food and did not set up tents again.
Due to the large number of people queuing in front of them, they were unable to enter the city before the city gates closed today.
At night, the family gathered together, sat on the ground, leaned on each other, and took a short nap.
It was not until the afternoon of the second day after the city gates were opened that it was their turn to enter the city. After several villages had all entered the city, the city gates were closed again. They had no way to leave the city, so they could only park on the side of the road to rest without affecting the passage of others.
The Cheng family and the Yun family were arranged by Cheng Yuheng to live in Jinkelai, an inn next to Jinxianglou.
Because Dongzhou Prefecture is now strictly prohibited from entering and leaving, the people in the industries affiliated with the Golden Palace of Dongzhou Prefecture were unable to evacuate in time. The shopkeepers, shop assistants and their families from Beizhou Prefecture, Zhongzhou Prefecture and Beining County were only allowed to enter the city yesterday.
Today, they received a notice to evacuate, and all of them left during the day. Now, both Jinkelai and Jinxianglou are empty.
Cheng Yuheng asked Butler Cheng to arrange for everyone to rest, let them use whatever was left here, and then left with Yun Duo.
