Northeastern pine is an important building material.

With the development of the economy, the demand for pine wood across the country is increasing, and the supply is simply in short supply. The price of pine wood is naturally rising.

This naturally gave rise to illegal mining and illegal logging.

A piece of pine wood can be sold for dozens of yuan, and more and more people are interested in it.

Sun Guangcai also agreed with Xu Dahai's words, but then smiled and said:

"Compared with stealing other people's money or robbing with a knife, running to the mountains and cutting down trees with a horse saw is much less harmful to society."

Sun Guangcai sent Xu Dahai to Xujiatun.

Chickens and dogs hear each other, children run, and bursts of firecrackers crackle.

Trucks rarely come to the village, and some children turn their heads to chase the trucks. When the trucks stop, they climb on to play.

After getting off the car, he went into the house and sat for a while, drinking a cup of tea to warm himself up. Xu Dahai left him here to eat.

However, considering that it was too late to finish the meal, and Sun Guangcai had to play cards with friends in the evening, he didn't eat.

"Okay, there's no need to send it out. It's cold outside. Go back."

"Yeah, drive slower on the road."

After standing at the gate of the fence and watching the truck rumble away under the brilliant glow, Xu Dahai and his wife Wang Xiuxiu walked inside.

As a result, I just returned to the house.

Grandma came over carrying two baskets. In the basket on the left was freshly baked sticky bean buns and braised sweet potatoes.

In the basket on the right are a dozen frozen pears and frozen persimmons.

"You haven't eaten yet? Then I came just in time."

"Well, grandma, you sit on the kang. It's warm." Xu Dahai smiled and said to Xiao Tingzi:

"What do you have in your mouth, little girl? Rock candy? I'm just here to eat it by myself, so I'll give you too much milk."

"If you don't want to eat, I won't eat... I have bad teeth."

"It's okay, it's rock candy, just keep it in your mouth."

Grandma asked about selling roe deer, and said that her father, Xu Houtian, and her third uncle had been going around digging pits recently. They had been working from dawn to dusk. The day before yesterday, the two of them had spent money together to buy a pair of cotton-padded clothes for her and grandpa.

Grandma smiled and said:

"In your grandpa's words, they really started to hang out after making some money, and even spent money to buy clothes..."

"I'll wear it if I buy it."

"I didn't wear it, so I asked them to return it...it's not good at such an old age.

Besides, I have cotton-padded clothes to wear. What a waste of money?It’s very expensive, and it’s not as warm as our own cotton-padded clothes…”

Grandma and the others all make their own cotton-padded clothes.

Cotton clothes are just cotton plus two layers of cloth, and then they are sewn together with needle and thread.

It does look bloated when worn, like a big fat penguin, but it is also really warm.

Xu Dahai suddenly thought of something.

I went to the West House and picked up a bag. When I opened it, there was white fluff inside:

"This is five kilograms of goose down from the slaughterhouse.

Mom, please help me renew a set of cotton-padded jacket and cotton trousers. Just take apart the original set of cotton-padded jacket and cotton trousers and replace them.

You shouldn't use so much, the rest will go into your and my father's cotton-padded jackets.This stuff is warm, much warmer than cotton. "

In fact, my wife Wang Xiuxiu can also do this.

It’s just that he wants to wear the clothes made by grandma.

On the surface, he is only in his twenties, but on the inside, he is already a little old man who has lived two lifetimes. It is also a blessing to be able to wear clothes made by his grandma.

"Okay, I'll continue it for you."

Grandma was very happy and motivated, and there was a feeling of being needed by her grandson in her heart.

After grandma left with her cotton-padded jacket and trousers and goose down, Xu Dahai's family of three also started eating.

After dinner.

Xu Dahai felt his arms were a little sore, so his wife Wang Xiuxiu rubbed them for him, while Xiao Tingzi changed the channel on the TV.

The big fat cat squatted on Xiao Tingzi's right. I didn't know if he could understand it, but he was looking at the TV anyway.

The TV stations are constantly changing.

"There's nothing good to watch. I've watched the TV series above several times."

The little girl stopped at a random station, and "Blood Doubt" was playing on the TV. She had watched this TV series several times.

After his wife rubbed his arms for a few minutes with moderate strength, Xu Dahai, who was lying on the kang, felt much better and said with a smile:

"Why don't we go hang out? It's still early before going to bed, and there aren't any good TV shows to watch."

"Whose house are you visiting? It's late at night, and everyone else might be asleep."

Wang Xiuxiu continued to massage Xu Dahai's arms.

"How about... go to Xu Yong's house and see that boy Xu Yong is having fun at home."

After getting dressed neatly, the family of three left the house. No need to lock it, just hang the iron gate on the gate.

There were thin clouds floating in the sky, and the moon was blocked. However, the ground, roofs, and fences were all covered with white snow, and the visibility was quite high.

"Wow woof woof~"

A dog barked in the distance. It was vague, and I didn’t know whose silly dog ​​it belonged to.

The family of three walked west after going out, turned south at the second intersection, and walked a few dozen meters further, using the collapsed back garden of Shengli's house to cross diagonally.

It seemed that there were quite a few people walking, and there were trails formed in the snow in the garden behind his house.

"I remember that in autumn, there were several large pumpkins growing in this garden. The largest one weighed over a hundred pounds. I even came to see it."

Wang Xiuxiu smiled.

Xu Dahai responded with a smile: "When I was a child, there were neither houses in the south nor the west. The surrounding areas were all the vegetable gardens of the team, where many vegetables grew.

We, who are about the same age, often come over to pull out carrots and eat them after bathing in the river. We don't wash them, we just pull them out and rub the soil on them and start chewing them. It's so sweet. "

"Pfft, no one is watching the garden?"

"Yes, that old man doesn't have good eyes or ears, so he doesn't care about us."

Soon we arrived at the door of Xu Yong's house. There was a dirt platform in front of his house. Several children nearby often skated here, making the ground slippery.

Xiao Tingzi was about to fall if her feet slipped. Fortunately, Xu Dahai was able to lift her up quickly.

"Yongzi! Yongzi!!"

After shouting a few times, amid the crisp barking of the dogs in the yard, the lights in the main room were turned on, and soon Xu Yong's wife came out in a hurry.

"I thought it was who it was, but it turned out to be your family of three! Come in quickly!"

Xu Yong's wife opened the gate for them with a smile and turned sideways to let them in.

"I had nothing to do after dinner, so I just wanted to come over and visit."

"Come! Come anytime!" Xu Yong's wife, who is also a cheerful person, shouted into the house:

"Yongzi, Brother Dahai is here!"

Xu Yong washed his feet and was sitting on the kang reading the newspaper. He wanted to get off the kang.

But after Xu Dahai entered the house, he saw that the outside of his right calf was wrapped with gauze, so he quickly stopped him:

"Stop getting off the kang. Is your leg injured? How did you fix it?"

"It's nothing serious. I was chasing a roe deer in the morning, but suddenly a roe deer popped out and shot eggs.

Fortunately, I hid quickly, otherwise it would not have been my calf that was injured. "

"The injury is not serious, right?"

"It's not serious, it's just a five or six-inch long cut. It's not deep, it just broke a layer of skin."

Xu Yong asked Xu Dahai to go to the kang, and then asked his wife to get snacks for Xiao Tingzi.

Soon pine nuts, nuts, hazelnuts, frozen persimmons, etc. were brought.

A few people chatted while eating, and Xu Dahai asked about the pig again, but Xu Yong sighed: "It ran away. If you take a shot from me, I'm afraid you won't die."
