Zhao Hui was going to stay for two days, so Mao Xiaosui set the kang in the side room on fire.

He and Zhao Hui were killing rabbits in the side room, and Mao Xiaosui took two rabbits to cook first.

After dinner, the two of them stayed in the side room.

Mao Xiaosui fell asleep with the baby in his arms, and when he woke up, the chicken had been killed.

She woke up the baby, chopped up the chicken and went to the kitchen to cook it.

I'm young these days and don't plan to go to the mountains, so I took some fish and grilled them on the stove.

The woolen pearl came while she was twitching, and she was too wilted to speak.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

Mao Mingzhu said, "I feel a little uncomfortable. I feel dizzy and nauseous."

"Is it cold?"

"I don't know." Mao Mingzhu yawned loudly and asked, "Is Zhao Hui here? I heard the voices talking in the side room."

Mao Xiaosui nodded, "Come and visit."

Mao Mingzhu didn't ask any more questions and went back after sitting until the sun went down.

The chicken soup in the kitchen had been cooked, and the meat was quite rotten because of the time. She called the two people in the side room, washed some mushrooms and cabbage and threw them in to cook.

There was no cooking at night, so several people ate all the vegetables and meat in a pot of chicken soup.

Zhao Hui stayed for two days and helped kill the rabbits for two days. He went back after eating on the morning of the third day.

As previously agreed, Li Yunshan distributed the money to him and gave him two rabbit meats. Mao Xiaosui also picked up some dried beans at home and gave them to him, but no more food was given this time.

After sending him out, Mao Xiaosui went to the side room to clean up the kang. When he lifted the mattress, he found six strings of copper plates underneath, which were given to him by Li Yunshan last night.

Seven strings were given at that time, indicating that Zhao Hui only took one string.

Mao Xiaosui folded the quilt and tidied the floor. When he returned to the house, Li Yunshan was pouring hot water into the basin of rabbit skins.

She shook the six strings of copper coins and said, "Zhao Hui only took one string with him. These six strings were pressed under the mattress. He probably didn't forget them, but kept them on purpose."

Li Yunshan took a look and had no special reaction, "Just keep it for now."

After listening to his words, Mao Xiaosui asked uncertainly, "You mean to put it alone?"

Li Yunshan said "Yeah" and said, "What if he wants it again in the future."

Mao Xiaosui thought about the same reason, so he took out the ones from last time and put them together.

Since Li Yunshan couldn't handle the work alone, she found a brush and started painting.

Li Yunshan brushes the oil from his skin while she washes his hair.

After working hard until noon, Mao Xiaosui made some food, ate it and continued working.

Li Ruyi and Li Ankang were talking inside, and they didn't sound like they were sleeping.

She took the beeswax soap she had made before, brushed what Li Yunshan had brushed a second time, and then brushed it a third time inside and out.

The soap paste in his hand was hard. Mao Xiaosui said, "It's no use planning to make a fortune. In the end, it was Heizi who brought the good life to the family."

Li Yunshan laughed, "Having a skill is better than not having one. In the future, I will really have no other choice but it is still a way to make money."

"Bah, bah, bah..." Mao Xiaosui said, "Don't be so cynical, we won't be forced to such a day."

"But the ones made from beeswax are better and more durable than those made from lard. There is still a lot left, so we can make it for ourselves."

"We can also use colored powder to adjust the color. Anyway, as long as it's not yellow and transparent, it'll be fine."

Li Yunshan nodded and said, "The honey at the bottom of the tank is almost bottoming out. I will go get it again this year."

“Then be careful.

......"

_

The weather had been sunny for more than half a month and the snow on the ground had almost melted, and then it immediately became cloudy again.

The cold wind blew for two days, and it snowed heavily on the third day.

The heavy snow fell on the ground and soon accumulated a layer. After breakfast, Li Ruyi and Li Ankang were playing in the snow in the yard.

Mao Xiaosui was making shoes for them to wear after the spring warmed up. He heard the two playing and shouting, "Be careful of frostbite on your hands."

Neither of the two children responded to her request, so Mao Xiaosui didn't care and settled down to sewing shoes.

Li Yunshan was killing rabbits in the side room again. After a while, she heard the sound of roosters crowing. When she opened the curtain, she saw that the two children were no longer in the yard.

Then there was Li Yunshan's voice calling her, and Mao Xiaosui only heard the bowl.

When she went out with the bowl, she saw Li Yunshan had caught a chicken and wanted to kill it.

Four of the eleven hens were killed off and on during the New Year, plus this was the fifth.

Mao Xiaosui put the bowl on the ground and said, "It's already February, it would be a pity to kill him."

"Your daughter wants to eat it." Li Yunshan said, "She went in and caught it herself."

Mao Xiaosui looked at Li Ruyi, "Did you catch it?"

Li Ruyi nodded proudly, "I caught it, it must be awesome."

"I caught it too." Li Ankang said, "Ruyi and I caught it."

"Awesome." Mao Xiaosui gave a thumbs up.

While Li Yunshan was bleeding, she brought over the sack containing the chicken feathers. Li Ruyi hurriedly said, "Ruyi wants to eat blood noodles."

"I know." Mao Xiaosui entered the room with a bowl in his hand.

There wasn't much chicken blood and she couldn't make much noodles. By the time she finished making the noodles, Li Yunshan was already removing the internal organs.

The pot on the clay stove was too small to cook a chicken, so after Li Yunshan finished cleaning it, she took it to the kitchen to cook it.

It takes an hour to cook a two- or three-year-old hen. Mao Xiaosui put the firewood in the stove and went back to the house.

Children's shoes are quick to make, and by the time the chicken in the pot is cooked, the soles are ready.

She took out the chicken, put sesame oil in the pot next to it and fried the chicken. After frying the chicken, she added some sesame oil to the soup. She added salt, pepper powder and chopped green onion to season it and served it.

He took the meat and soup to the main room, boiled water in a small pot, called the three people in the side room, and went to the kitchen to clean.

The dining table has been set. Li Yunshan is sitting and drinking water. Li Ruyi and Li Ankang are each holding a piece of meat and gnawing on it.

Mao Xiaosui put the meat on the table and said, "Eat the meat first, there's not enough noodles."

Li Yunshan took one and chewed it.

Mao Xiaosui ate the stomach of the chicken and then picked the neck to gnaw on it.

When the noodles are cooked, pour a ladle of hot chicken soup over them, scoop out some salted green onions with chopsticks, and eat.

Li Ruyi and Li Ankang were almost full after eating a few pieces of meat. Mao Xiaosui made Shao some noodles and chicken soup to drink.

She and Li Yunshan settled the rest.

There was still a lot of chicken left, so Li Yunshan ate a few more pieces and said, "It will be warm next month after this snow ends."

"It's time to go to the ground." She sighed.

When I first came here, I had a lot of free time in the winter, but I haven’t had any free time since the year before last. The thought of going to the fields made me feel happy and tired at the same time.

Fortunately, we have Mule and Zhao Hui this year, so we can have less hard work.

She asked, "Are you waiting for Zhao Hui to poop or something?"

"It depends on him sooner or later. I told Brother Ding that he won't sell it to anyone else this year."

"What are you planting?"

Li Yunshan: "We won't be planting millet this year. Let's wait and see. There are three acres of wheat and beans. Mainly, I want to see if wheat can be grown."

"It's up to you." Mao Xiaosui said.
