"By the way, you wait at home. I have to go to the police station to take care of some things now. Let's eat together when I come back for lunch."

"Little sister, please bring me some candied haws later." The little girl started to act coquettishly towards Ding Weidong.

Got it, I'll prepare two more. After saying that, Ding Weidong smiled and walked out of the door.

When he was passing through an unnoticed path, he wrapped two prey (wild boars) weighing more than 100 kilograms each and tied to the back of his bicycle in two sackcloth bags to avoid attracting the curious gazes of passers-by. The two wild boars had already been cleaned into strips of pure meat by Wei Dong using his supernatural powers. Some of their internal organs had also been cleaned very neatly by Wei Dong.

Ding Weidong planned to cook those parts into braised delicacies tonight, such as braised pig heart, large intestine and stomach, which are all types of snacks he likes to taste; he planned to start preparing them as soon as he returned home.

After arriving at the police station, I handed over the two pigs to Officer Zhang and asked them to weigh them.

"The net weight of the prey brought by Deputy Director Weidong is about 220 kilograms. How about the price of one silver dollar per kilogram?" Officer Zhang smiled a little embarrassedly, "This price is indeed a bit low..."

Never mind, it's no problem, let's leave it like this for now, Ding Weidong said with a smile.

"Wait a moment, regarding the sharing of the spoils as welfare, of course you will not be left out with a share." The police officer said with a smile, "I have other tasks to go out on later, so I won't be able to deliver it to you."

Well, why not just give me two pig heads and you can give me the two hundred silver coins. Wei Dong suggested,

"How about this, I'll just pay you 220 yuan, and both pig heads will be yours." The director waved his hand and said, "Let's just settle it. No need to say more. If you get any good items in the future, you can share them with the department."

Ding Weidong returned to his residence with two pig heads. When he arrived at the large courtyard in the old Beijing style, Li Huaide's vehicle just came into view.

As soon as he got off the car, Li Huaide said:

"I was just planning to visit you, Chief Ding. These are the gifts you deserve for the New Year. Please accept them. I won't come to your room." He hastily added, "I still have a lot of work to do..."

"I understand, Director Li, you go and do your own thing. Let's find a chance to get together and have a few drinks after the New Year." Ding Weidong said with a smile.

His assistant Xiao Wang handed a large bag to Ding Weidong. Although he didn't know the specific contents, Ding Weidong accepted it generously.

After watching Li Huaide's car leave, he glanced at his gold watch - it was eleven o'clock. When he pushed the cart full of supplies into the yard, he saw Yan Bugui wandering around the yard.

Yan Bugui opened his eyes wide when he saw that in addition to the pig's head, there were two burlap bags of different shapes and sizes on the car.

He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity, but was stopped by Ding Weidong's eyes. He then remembered that they had a grudge and had not yet reconciled.

Yan Bugui had no choice but to leave in shame.

The large number of people buying festival products in the market today has enabled Yanbugui to get a lot of bargains.

"Brother, how did you get so many good things? Our New Year will surely be very prosperous!" Li Qingyu exclaimed with joy.

“Well, there will be more activities in the afternoon. These pig heads need to be stewed and some salted fish needs to be made.” Ding Weidong said, “And the pig offal needs to be cooked.”

In the cloth bag that Li Huaide brought over, there was a bag of wheat flour weighing 20 kilograms. There was also fresh pork and frozen cod weighing 5 kilograms each. Both were tied with straw ropes, and finally a bag of sugar weighing 2 kilograms.

The child was happily chewing the roasted gourd, her eyes fixed on the delicious food. Her face was filled with happiness.

For lunch, they chose fried buns. Two big pig heads and one small pig head were cut into two halves, and after a simple cleanse, they were put into a big pot and slow-cooked.

"Brother Dong, if you want to go shopping for some other little things, please bring me along." Li Qingyu suggested gently, "I have to watch the fire here!" She added, "We also have to stir-fry the walnuts and chestnuts. I've already bought some sunflower seeds and nut kernels."

Sunflower seeds and nuts were purchased by Li Qingyu and her children at the grain and oil store yesterday.

"Brother, let's go. Come with me to stroll around the streets!" The child responded enthusiastically.

Women love to stroll the streets, regardless of age.

Then Ding Weidong and his little sister stepped out of the door; as soon as they entered the yard, they saw a man with a horse face riding a bicycle.

The man was immediately recognizable as the famous bully named Xu Damao, with his iconic horse face and funny lip moustache.

Xu Damao, who is six feet tall, is as thin as a cutlassfish; however, Ding Weidong, who is the same height, has a completely different body shape.

"Hey... you are the new resident, right?" Xu Damao greeted with a smile: "Hello, I am the announcer Xu Damao who works at the steel mill."

"Hey, Ding Weidong. You also work in this steel mill." Ding Weidong smiled and said, "Just keep busy with your own things. We can get together some other day."

"Okay, I'll live in the back yard. I'll invite you to come over and have a drink in a couple of days." Xu Damao left with a big smile on his face.

Although Xu Damao had just left a while ago, he still knew a little about what had happened in the courtyard in the past few days. It was said that an old soldier who had just returned had a fight with a few old stubborn people and Sha Zhu.

What’s more important is that even the shrewd old lady Jia was taught a lesson, and it turned out that these people had no way to deal with the matter.

Ding Weidong left with the child Xiaoyuer in his arms, while Xu Damao was still observing the various plaques hanging in front of the door of the room.

"Oh, with these things, the momentum is really extraordinary. No wonder Yi Zhonghai didn't dare to say a word." Xu Damao thought secretly in his heart.

"Da Mao, are you back from the factory? Are there any benefits distributed there?" Uncle Yan approached and said, "Wow, look at this sausage, it's really great!"

"It's almost the same as yours, just some flour and pork." Xu Damao shook his head and responded: "Your school affiliated with the steel plant should also receive the same benefits."

"I just went to school this morning and got some. It's just some flour and a little pork." Uncle Yan replied in annoyance: "Hey, Damao, do you think these sausages are good?"

There were dozens of strings of sausages hanging on the handlebars of Xu Damao's car, and there was a huge sack on the back seat.

"Let me put it this way, Third Uncle, you still keep busy with your own things. I'll go back to cook. My wife Lou Xiao'e will be back tonight." With that, Xu Damao hurried away.

Xu Damao was not at home these days because he was out showing movies in the countryside, and his newlywed wife Lou Xiao'e returned to her parents' home. The newlywed Xu Damao was still in the stage of being in love.

Looking at Xu Damao's receding figure, Uncle Yan murmured a few words silently.

Ding Weidong bought a large bamboo basket from a grocery store and put all kinds of snacks and toys in it. He held his baby Xiaoyuer in one hand and the basket in the other.

The young Xiaoyuer held a White Rabbit milk candy in one hand and a ocarina in the other. The ocarina was made of washed clay and then painted with colors after being air-dried.

Along the way home, I heard the sound of an ocarina.

"Brother, why don't you buy firecrackers?" Xiao Yuer took a lot of effort to put down the ocarina. At this time, he saw some other children playing on the road and setting off firecrackers.

"Dad just left, so we can't set off firecrackers to celebrate now." Ding Weidong sighed softly: "You'll understand when you grow up. Aren't you still holding something fun in your hand? There's also a ** there."

"Well, I will just hug this doll before I go to sleep at night." Xiao Yuer's face was filled with a happy smile.

Firecrackers were blasting everywhere, and the air was filled with the strong smell of **. Ding Weidong was on his way home with Xiaoyuer in his arms, and was about to close his door when he saw Yi Zhonghai, Jia Dongxu, Sha Zhu and others walking by with their hands full of year-end supplies.

Because the steel plant will be closed tomorrow, we ended work early in the afternoon.

When Sha Zhu passed by, he paid special attention to the house here, but he did not see the person he had been thinking about day and night - Li Qingyu; he had no choice but to turn around and rush home to see the reply from the deaf woman.

When Sha Zhu stepped into the yard, he found his sister He Ruxue cleaning the room.

"Yu'er, you finally came back. This is a surprise for the New Year!" Sha Zhu put down the things in his hands and said, "Have you prepared the supplies for the New Year..."

"I only make ten yuan a month, don't expect anything from me." He Yuer said calmly, "You two can celebrate the New Year together, I don't like nagging!"

In this era, the ten yuan sent back by He Daqing was not intercepted by Yi Zhonghai. This money was reserved for He Yuer's living expenses. Three years ago, when she was fifteen years old, she saw Sha Zhu helping the Qin family, and she decisively chose to separate from Sha Zhu and personally took charge of her own food book, coal tickets and living subsidies.

Although to others, the two have not really separated, in reality they are almost separated. He Yuer, who will graduate from high school in May or June this year, has already bought some things for the New Year: such as a pound of pork, some braised peanuts, and a koi carp that probably weighs more than a pound. These foods will be prepared into semi-finished products, and they can be easily heated up the next day.

"You can't say that. You're spending the New Year alone..." Sha Zhu responded by shaking his head.

"I don't want to spend the New Year alone like this, but my dad ran off with the widow, and my brother... hehe!" He Yuer shook her head and sighed, "Silly brother, I can't stay here for much longer. Once I get a job, I plan to find a good man to marry and leave here completely."

"You...what you said..." Sha Zhu felt a pang of pain in his heart, but he still remembered the plan that the deaf nanny had made for him before, and hurriedly said, "Then this year, I will spend the New Year with you. But I have to go visit you first."

He Yuer smiled bitterly, but she knew in her heart that after Sha Zhu returned home, he might change his original decision.

Afterwards, Sha Zhu hurried to Yi Zhonghai's house, and soon after he went out, he saw the deaf old lady staying there.

"Mammy, what's going on?" Sha Zhu asked anxiously.

"Alas, Silly Zhu, this thing didn't work out." The deaf old lady smiled bitterly and said, "The other party didn't show any respect to an old man like me. Besides, the two of them are indeed a couple."

"What? They are not brothers and sisters?" Sha Zhu said gritting his teeth.

"What brother and sister? They are not even related by blood. Forget it. I will find you a suitable one after the New Year." The deaf old lady kept shaking her head and said, "Even if they are brother and sister, they won't even look at you."

"Why don't you think highly of me? I have an income of thirty-seven and fifty dollars a month and I own three houses. If one person is well fed, the whole family will be happy." At this time, Sha Zhu raised his neck and shouted.

He Yuer just heard Sha Zhu's words when she reached the door of her house. She couldn't help but feel sad. Tears silently flowed down her face. It was obvious that this big brother named Sha Zhu didn't care about her so-called sister at all.

Whenever possible, He Yuer would avoid going home; this time, she also stayed at a friend's house for a while. However, as the Spring Festival was approaching, it would be unreasonable not to come back. So she had to return here in despair.

Faced with such a situation, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu looked at Sha Zhu with strange eyes; while Old Ear Mama showed a hopeless expression. She had never imagined that Sha Zhu would still be so... too straightforward.

"Okay, okay, stop talking. We'll help you find a partner during the Chinese New Year." Yi Zhonghai suggested, "Go to the kitchen now and prepare some wine and food for us tonight."

"Okay, but I still want to ask, why does Li Qingyu look down on me?" Sha Zhu said angrily: "She is clearly despising me..."

"If you go, I'm afraid Ding Weidong will teach you a lesson without mercy, and he has a legitimate reason to do so." The old woman said indifferently, "He has already explained his relationship with Li Qingyu, and clearly warned others not to harass Li Qingyu again, otherwise he will not be polite."

"Oh, this is really a headache." Liang Man said with a sigh.

"Manzi, bring some meat and noodles tomorrow, and we'll celebrate the New Year together like we did before." Yi Hai said, "I know you've also prepared a lot of New Year ingredients. Take them out and share them with everyone."

"Alas, I have already promised Yu Shui that I will spend the New Year with her." Liang Man said hesitantly.

"Manzi, what do you mean by that?" Yi Hai said to Liang Man, "We should not only care about our own interests and forget about our extended family. We should think more about everyone and not just be happy for ourselves. This is what I always teach you. Have you forgotten it? We should respect our elders and care for children, especially the needs of the elderly!"

"**Are you still going to celebrate the New Year together? Do you still want to spend the New Year with Yu Shui? In fact, you can invite Yu Shui over!"

If Ding Weidong had said this, he would probably have to knock out two or three of Yi Hai's teeth before he would give up, otherwise he would feel sorry for himself.

But Liang Man could only laugh dryly: "Well, old man, you are right. But my sister is very stubborn, there is nothing I can do!"

Qin Chuanru looked at Yi Hai at the door and gave her a wink. She immediately understood what he meant.

Liang Man's house has all kinds of festive food. How can he be allowed to enjoy them alone at home?

Qin Chuanru knew that Liang Man's house contained a small pig's head, several pickled eggs, several skewers of grilled sausages - about five to six kilograms of pork; a large fish, a pair of chickens, and so on.

Considering that they were going to spend New Year's Eve together, Qin Chuanru expected Liang Man to bring these ingredients to the party. Therefore, he did not act rashly, not wanting the party to look too bad.

Now I heard that Liang Man wanted to celebrate the New Year alone with He Yushui. How could this be possible?

"Manzi, we always spend the New Year together. Why is today different? I hope to bring more delicious food." Qin Chuanru said to Liang Man in a gentle manner.

At this moment, Qin Chuanru's eyes looked very charming, and Liang Man felt as if the pain in his heart was touched. He immediately agreed: "Okay, okay, then let's continue to celebrate together."

"Well, that's right. Manzi, bring all the New Year's items as soon as possible." Qin Chuanru said gently, "Your sister has bought some holiday food, so she definitely can't finish it."

"You can invite her to bring all the food and share it together."

She swayed as she spoke. Even though her upper body had begun to sag slightly after giving birth to two children, it became rounder after her third child.

When it shook, the two huge breasts swayed duang duang back and forth, and even wearing thick cloth could not block it.

Few people wore bras in this era. Most people wore bellybands or simply did not wear any bra accessories.

Liang Man almost drooled, his eyes almost fixed on Qin Chuanru's chest. He swallowed hard and said, "Okay, I'll get it right now."

"Dongliang, cook delicious food at our house this year. After it's done, you can just send it directly to Sister Qin's house." Qin Huairu said softly, "Persuade your sister to come and share the delicious food together!"
