After Li Yunshan went to the market, Mao Xiaosui also started to pack the meat at home.

The oil in the pot was left untreated after making aspic, so she dug it out with a shovel and put it into a basin.

Use a knife to trim the meat from the bone and cut into thick slices. Cut while frying.

The aroma of meat overflowed and soon the courtyard door rang.

Ding Wenxiu slapped the door and shouted, "Mao Xiaosui, open the door..."

She came as soon as Li Yunshan left. It was a good time to be stuck.

Heizi ignored her in the haystack at the door. He didn't even say a word. Mao Xiaosui didn't pay attention to her. She was already so old. She couldn't have slapped her in anger. Although she started making a fuss, she scolded Ding Wenxiu for being partial. There are so many people, it is inevitable that there will be people saying that she did something to the old man.

And she didn't want to make trouble with Ding Wenxiu.

There's no point in making trouble. When she was bullied in the past, she would curse a few times in her mind, but now that her life is over, she doesn't even bother to talk to her anymore.

The pig was not a small one, with a lot of meat removed from the bones. She fried it into dozens or twenty slices at first. After frying it for three or four pots and finding it too troublesome, she cut a pot and poured it in for frying.

She needed something to put the meat in when it was fried, and after much thought, she decided that a water tank or a grain tank were most suitable.

The water tank needed to be stocked with water, but it didn't matter if the grain tank wasn't in use, so she simply scrubbed the empty grain tank.

The grain tank is as big as half a water tank, and is almost just full.

Li Yunshan came back after dinner, and he didn't fry much meat. When he came in, he said, "I can smell the aroma of meat even at the intersection of Lujia Road."

"Come and eat." Mao Xiaosui greeted him.

She had just poured it into the pot, and the pot was still hot.

Li Yunshan was also hungry, so he tied the dog to the door and went straight to the kitchen.

Mao Xiaosui dug out a bowl for him with a spoon. Li Yunshan started eating after holding it. After a few mouthfuls, he asked, "Have Ruyi and Ankang slept?"

"It's time to go to bed." Mao Xiaosui said, "I ate all morning. Ruyi ate too much and even vomited."

Li Yunshan started eating again. Mao Xiaosui put his hand on the brazier to roast it, and said to him, "After you finish eating, wash your hands and help me cut it. The meat is too frozen. My hands hurt from the cold." "

"Did you save it for making steamed buns?"

"Forgot." Mao Xiaosui said, "Then cut a big piece and keep it."

Li Yunshan nodded and talked about today's visit to Ding's house. "Brother Ding asked Ruyi and asked me to pick a day to go there and identify him."

Mao Xiaosui was amused, "What else did you say?"

Li Yunshan shook his head, seeing that she kept smiling, and asked in confusion, "Why are you laughing?"

"Brother Ding said during the Chinese New Year that he would arrange a baby marriage for Ruyi and Pingsui."

Li Yunshan didn't think there was anything wrong with this. He just said, "My Ruyi family is prettier than Pingsui."

Children grow up quickly, and Mao Xiaosui doesn't know what Ding Pingsui will look like, so he might as well just follow Ding Azhuang. At least Ding Azhuang is tall and not ugly.

She said, "Don't accept this kind of thing easily. I mean it depends on Ruyi's intentions in the future. It's okay to take her over to recognize her first, just in case the two of them can play together."

Li Yunshan nodded, "I think it's good. It's better to find a good-looking girl than to find a good-looking one. The children of my sister-in-law and Brother Ding will definitely be good, at least they won't be wronged by Ruyi. What happens in the future, we can easily talk about it." You can discuss it, it’s better than others.”

Mao Xiaosui knew what he said was reasonable, but he still said, "Let's see how he grows up. Children may not follow their parents, so don't accept it yet."

Seeing that he didn't speak, Mao Xiaosui asked again, "Did you hear that?"

Li Yunshan nodded "I understand."

After eating, Li Yunshan cut the meat, took the bones to the grain house, went to the backyard, tied the dog, then blocked the door and returned to the house.

Mao Xiaosui thought he was sleeping, but when he returned to the house to drink water, he discovered that he was washing rabbit skin.

A pig has been busy all day, and the sun has set when he is done.

She poured the last pot of suet into the pot and simmered it over low heat. She went back to the house to cook a mushroom egg soup, and said to Li Yunshan, "Get some plant ash to make soap. There isn't much left in the side room."

Li Yunshan immediately stood up and went out.

Mao Xiaosui boiled the soup and poured it into a basin. He also washed the pot and let the two children drink while he carried the bowl to the kitchen.

After smelling the smell of meat all day, she didn't feel hungry at all. After drinking the soup, she was almost done with suet. She stood at the door and asked the three people in the room, "Do you want to eat meat?"

"If you don't want to eat, don't eat..." Li Ruyi shouted back to her.

Mao Xiaosui could even hear the avoidance in her words, and immediately felt funny, and deliberately asked, "Can Mommy make a bowl of meat for Ruyi?"

"No, no, no." Li Ruyi ran out and threw herself into her arms, shaking her head. "Ruyi won't eat."

"Okay, okay." She pushed Li Ruyi out of her arms and turned around. "Go back to the house. Mom will be fine soon."

Li Ruyi turned around as he walked and said, "Ruyi doesn't eat meat."

Li Yunshan and Li Ankang didn't eat either. Mao Xiaosui took out the fire in the stove, took the soup bowl, closed the door and went back to the house.

Li Yunshan had already boiled the gray water, and when he saw her coming in, he said, "It's ready."

Mao Xiaosui nodded and drank the last bit of soup in the basin.

I didn't feel so uncomfortable now that I couldn't smell the meat anymore. I put the bowl away, went into the side room and took a cabbage to the kitchen.

Remove the oil residue, pour the oil into a basin to settle, and stir-fry cabbage in the pan.

Half a basin of cabbage was fried and brought into the house. By the time she finished cleaning the kitchen, it was already dark.

The lard that had settled in the basin was brought into the house. The gray water had also settled. Li Yunshan brought a basin and a spoon to scoop out the oil. Mao Xiaosui went to the kitchen to get something for beating pollen.

Li Yunshan was responsible for stirring, and she was responsible for beating.

Li Ruyi and Ankang looked on curiously. Mao Xiaosui gave them a shushing gesture and said, "This is our family's secret. No one can tell that they know it?"

The two children tilted their heads, showing doubts, but nodded.

After a busy day, both of them were tired. Mao Xiaosui looked at the rabbit skin soaked in the corner and said, "How many times have you washed it?"

"Twice." Li Yunshan yawned. "Tomorrow I will deal with the rabbit skin first. I plan to go to the county again before the end of the year."

"Should I still sell it to a salesman?"

He nodded, "I asked last time in the town, and there were only two companies that accepted it, and they didn't give much money. After all, they said they would take it, so it saves me the hassle of running around asking questions."

He looked hesitant.

Mao Xiaosui saw it and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm thinking about taking a look at the county next door. I heard it's more prosperous than ours."

Mao Xiaosui: "Is it far?"

"I don't know if it takes more than a day by car, but it may take three or four days by walking."

"It's too far." Mao Xiaosui said, "When the weather clears up in spring, you can ride a mule and save yourself the trouble of walking."

Li Yunshan just thought about it casually. After hearing what she said, he suddenly made up his mind and nodded, "Okay, I'll go take a look in the spring."
