Whose farming family has the male protagonist giving three piglets as a gift at the beginning?

In mid-June it started to rain again.

Since yesterday, we haven't set up a stall in Shan'ao, and we haven't even made tofu.

Just as the focus was on making sweet potato flour, Su Ziling specifically asked Liu Guilan, his wife, and Ji Yunchu if they wanted to come over to work, which was also ten cents a day.

Originally, no one wanted to go out on a rainy day like this. They all liked to light a fire pot at home, roast sweet potatoes, sleep in, etc. But when they heard that there was money available, they came anyway.

In fact, as long as Su Ziling says something, they will come even if they don't have money to help.

The sweet potatoes were washed and piled in a corner of the yard, but because of the rain, some muddy water splashed on the sweet potatoes, so they still had to be washed again.

Because of the foot-operated pestle and mortar, you don’t have to chop the sweet potatoes into too small pieces.

Ji Yunchu and Liu Guilan were responsible for cleaning, while Su Guangbai and Su Mubaiwei were responsible for chopping the sweet potatoes into pieces.

The remaining people are responsible for pounding the rice, while Su Ziling and Su Zizhong are responsible for filtering the powder.

After making sweet potato flour last time, Mr. Su felt that the pot at home was not enough, and it felt very small. It looked like it filled a yard, but in fact, the pot was too small to hold much.

Later, he worked whenever he had free time and made several large basins and several large buckets that were similar to bathtubs.

Now that the pot is big, it is much easier to filter out the powder.

It moves very quickly when there are so many people, but the place is too narrow and it’s a bit difficult to move around.

They cook for three hours every day, and spend the rest of the time sitting together over the fire, roasting sweet potatoes. Su Ziling will also make some snacks, make some corn cakes, or fry some dried mushrooms.

The crispy fried mushrooms are sprinkled with sesame pepper and Sichuan peppercorns. It is spicy, fragrant and crispy, and everyone loves it.

Liu Guilan also said that when she had free time, she would ask her mother to pick up some gray mushrooms and firewood mushrooms to cook. These mushrooms can not only be used for cooking, but can also be made into snacks that both adults and children will like to eat.

After three days of cooking, all the sweet potatoes were finished. Looking at the filtered flour, Su Ziling thought that she would have to ask if anyone could sell them.

Such a small amount cannot be sold for a few days, let alone made into dry powder.

The sweet potato residue was left to dry. Mother Su was reluctant to feed the cows, and even the pigs only fed a little bit, mixed with pig grass.

Su Ziling cooked brown rice, sweet potato, and cornmeal rice every day. Mother Su felt very distressed when she looked at the sweet potato residue.

It's not that Su Ziling doesn't make sweet potato dregs to eat, but when she makes sweet potato dregs, she usually makes sweet potato pancakes. It's delicious, but it wastes oil and eggs. It's okay to eat it occasionally, but it can't be tolerated every day.

Then Su’s mother stopped letting her cook and asked her to rest. Su’s mother cooked corn mush with sweet potato dregs every day, which made everyone’s faces look the color of sweet potatoes.

I felt nauseated when I saw the sweet potato dregs. The sweet potato dregs had no flour and sweetness, and tasted just tasteless and soft.

"Mom, do you think our piglets have lost weight?" Su Ziling couldn't eat anymore, so she poked at the sweet potato residue with chopsticks.

"Is there any?" Mother Su paused for a moment while looking at the sweet potato dregs in the bowl, then picked up a chopstick and mixed the fungus sauce before eating it.

To be honest, the delicious taste of fungus sauce cannot save the sweet potato residue.

"Yes, if you don't believe me, ask Axiu!" Su Ziling pointed to Axiu who had only eaten one bite of sweet potato dregs after eating for a long time.

Those three piglets were always fed by Axiu. Regardless of wind or rain, Axiu Lei could not help but feed the pigs on time.

The three piglets are growing very fast, but they probably haven't grown much because their food supply has dropped in the past two days.

Axiu nodded heavily, "Well, my belly is not very round, and my hair is not smooth anymore. It's all exploded.'???`"

There were Axiu and Sua feeding pigs, but Mother Su didn't even visit them. She really didn't know the situation. When she heard that the piglets were losing weight, she frowned and asked, "Why are they losing weight? Are they sick? Or else Looking for someone to take a look at?"

Before Su Ziling could speak, Axiu said. She looked at Su's mother seriously, "Second aunt, it's because Piggy has less sweet potato residue and eats less."

Mother Su: "..."

Su Ziling saw that everyone had eaten enough. It would be okay if they ate sweet potatoes every day. The sweet potatoes were sweet and pink, but the tasteless ones now were really not delicious.

She asked cautiously: "Mom, do we have to eat this sweet potato dregs?"

Mother Su was still arrogant, "I thought it would be a waste not to eat it, and this sweet potato residue is much more delicious than those banana roots and the like..."

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, her voice became weaker and weaker, and her confidence became less and less.

She looked at the sweet potato residue in the bowl, took two big bites, and swallowed it whole, thinking that this was not bad!

But seeing that no one wanted to eat it, she asked weakly: "Is it really so unpalatable?"

Everyone nodded and said in unison: "It tastes bad!"

"I think... it's okay?" Su's mother was not confident enough. She raised the bowl, but she couldn't open her mouth for the third bite.

"Forget it, forget it!" She put down the bowl and gave up, "If you don't want to eat it, let's feed it to the pigs and the cows. The cows just have calves, so you can eat more."

She brought a swill bucket and poured all the sweet potato dregs into it. "These are just for feeding the cows!"

"Qing'er, do whatever you want to do quickly, just do whatever you want to deal with it and eat it!"

After pouring out all the sweet potato residue, she found that everyone was looking at her with confused expressions.

"The cow has a calf? When did it happen?"

"Yes, I just bought this a few days ago, and I haven't seen it hit the market yet!"

"A match for when you go out to herd cattle?"

"That's not right, there are no bulls in our village either?"

Mother Su looked at Su Ziling, "You didn't tell them?"

Su Ziling looked confused. She shook her head, "I thought you said that."

After all, Mother Su couldn't hold back this kind of good news.

Unexpectedly, the corners of Su's mother's mouth twitched, "I thought you told them."

She has always wondered why these people are so calm. It turns out they don't know yet!

Su Ziling told her what she found when she bought the cow again, but everyone still couldn't believe it.

"Is this... accurate?" Mr. Su asked.

Su Ziling shook her head and nodded, "When I first bought it, I thought I was 70-80% sure, but now I'm 100% sure!"

Seeing that everyone still didn't understand, she explained: "I've been observing over the past two days and my breasts have begun to swell. I estimate that I will give birth in ten and a half days."

This is what she just discovered the day before yesterday. The cow has begun to swell, and the hind udder has begun to swell. It is about the size of a table tennis ball. When I went to see it today, it was a little bigger. It is estimated that the baby was born in late June or early July.

"So soon? Didn't we prepare anything?" Father Su was excited when he thought that a calf was about to be born at home, but when he thought that they had no experience and didn't know what to prepare, he looked sad.

This face is like a chameleon, changing back and forth.
