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

Liu Guilan and his wife worked quickly and finished harvesting the corn in the field early. Now the whole family is peeling corn husks, and Liu's mother is thinking about the ice powder fruits in the mountains.

"Second brother, we've finished harvesting the corn, and the fields are almost done. You two have nothing to do. Why don't you go pick the ice-pink fruits in the mountain col? You can pick one or two hundred kilograms."

"Mom, why do you say it's okay? The corn is still piled up. Peel the shells and dry them early. You will have to pay the tax in a few days." Liu Guilan said while peeling the shells, and the movements were fast, swish, and swish. Just peeled one off.

"That's it. I can do it by myself. I won't delay you from paying taxes. If you don't pick it now, no one else can find it. If the rain comes this time, it will all be ruined." Mother Liu thought about how she had done it in previous years. I went to dig wild vegetables. The mountain col was full of ice-pink fruits, and there were probably a lot of them this year.

If no one picks them, the seeds will fall and grow densely in the next year.

Liu Guilan looked at the small amount of corn in the house and thought, haha, with such a small amount, her mother would probably be gone in two days of peeling it. They had time now, so they would pick it back first.

I have to start work tomorrow, so I won’t have time to pick them. If it’s as much as her mother said, it can be sold for a lot of money.

As for the corn, I guess it's enough to peel it two days ago, and it's almost done if it's left in the sun for two days.

Thinking about it this way, she really couldn't delay paying taxes. After she figured it out, she looked at Su Guangbai and said, "Second brother, what do you think?"

Su Guangbai has a dull temper and doesn't have much to say. Liu Guilan usually makes the decision and he just follows suit.

As a person, the things he said the most and loudest were probably the ones he used to argue with the old man and the old lady when they separated.

"Just make up your mind."

"Then let's go pick ice-pink fruits first," she said, and she found a backpack and took four sacks, thinking that by then the two of them would each pick two sacks, which would probably weigh one or two hundred kilograms.

The two of them took the kettle and two vegetable steamed buns. They didn't plan to come back at noon. They could handle one in the mountains.

The mountain road was a bit far, and most of the people nearby had been wiped out by the children. The two of them didn't stay too long and went directly to the place Liu's mother said.

Liu Guilan had some impression of the place she mentioned. Before she was married, she would often go there to dig wild vegetables in the mountains.

She followed her memory and finally arrived in the mountains near their village an hour later.

The two of them did not enter the village. Mother Liu had been picked up by them anyway, so there was no need to come back to this place.

Liu Guilan took the lead and went straight up the mountain. Su Guangbai followed her. After climbing up a slope, he saw the mountain col.

It's a bit ridiculously big and flat, but it's covered with all kinds of weeds, especially cockleburs and cockleburs, and the rest are white grass, goosegrass, and knotweed.

Along the way, they encountered a lot of fungi. Liu Guilan also accepted them all. Mosquito legs are also meat. After picking the ice powder fruits, they can also go to the mountains to pick up some fungi. If they can, they will sell them.

Entering the mountain col, Su Guangbai walked in front. He held a sickle and chopped down the weeds. Probably because there were fewer people coming, the grass in this mountain col grew particularly fast.

When you reach the middle point, the ice-pink fruits are very obvious. They are big trees. The fruits are ripe and yellow, hanging on them, like small lanterns.

So the name of the lantern fruit comes from this, but the name is different in each place.

Regardless of being pricked, when they saw this piece of ice-pink fruit, the two of them looked at each other, rolled up their sleeves and started working.

First pick it into the backpack, and then put it into the sack when the basket is full. Liu Guilan asked while picking, "Second brother, why do you think their family needs so many ice powder fruits? How do you eat these?"

Su Guangbai shook his head. How could he know? He had never eaten it.

"Don't worry about so many. If her family wants us to pick them, we can still sell them for money."

"Yes, this year's harvest is better than last year. I guess there will be a lot left after paying the taxes. We also have some money in our hands. When the time comes, we can exchange it for grain. Brown rice, corn or buckwheat will do. I guess this year's grain will be almost enough." have eaten."

Liu Guilan was talking, but her hands were not slow at all.

Su Guangbai: "Well, it's almost done. I can still save some money in the next few months, and I can have a good New Year this year. Then I will buy some window grilles, some meat and white noodles, and we will also make dumplings during the New Year."

"Dumplings? In fact, you can also eat vermicelli. Then go buy some vermicelli from Xiaoqing and stew it with pork and cabbage. It will be delicious."

"If you work hard, you will be able to eat everything by the end of the year. From what I see in their family, the workshop is probably going to be expanded. By then, let's work hard. Next year will be better, and it will get better year by year."

Thinking about pork dumplings, vermicelli, and the food at home, the couple talked more and more passionately.

It feels like my whole body is on fire. I am finally looking forward to this day.

Before the family was separated, they couldn't even eat enough. Now, only a few months later, they are already thinking about eating dumplings.

The two of them were very fast. After picking in this mountain col, they filled one and a half sacks. After picking in one place, they moved to another.

They were hungry at noon, so they sat under a tree and ate vegetable steamed buns. There was a lot of cornmeal in the buns, which made them a bit hard and irritated their throats.

After eating, I didn't rest much, so I continued picking. The journey was a bit far, and I was afraid that if I rested for a while, I would be in the dark when I returned.

By the time they were all picked, the sack was already full. Seeing that it was still early, the two of them picked up fungi nearby.

There are relatively few types of fungi here, not as many as in their village. It took the two of them half an hour to pick up half of the basket.

Most of them were miscellaneous bacteria, and there were not many that could be seen on the hands. Liu Guilan sighed, "Let's go back."

Su Guangbai knew what she was thinking. He hugged her shoulders and said, "It's okay. If we can't sell it for money, we can eat it ourselves. The soup made with these mushrooms is also delicious. Besides, we have already picked so many ice powder fruits. It can be sold for a lot of money.”
