Husband and wife are hot on the kang

When it was two o'clock, people came one after another.

The place to eat is in the East Wing. There are four tables, eight dishes, four meat and four vegetarian dishes. If soup and staple food are counted, there are exactly ten.

Because there were so many people and it was cold outside, I didn’t go to the front school to borrow stools. I set up four tables on the kang table, each of which could seat six or seven people. The two gentlemen also invited me to sit with the old village chief and the others. at the first table.

Those who came were all the heads of the families, and their families also received the mutton sent by Yu Juren. Now everyone in the family ate mutton soup, and they ate here.

"Our Shibalipu is considered to be smoking from the ancestral grave." The old village chief took a sip of the wine with a red face, feeling very happy.

This year, he went to the county to report to the county elders, and there was content, and it was very rich. They gave birth to eight children in Shibalipu, and Xiao Juren was rewarded by the court.

What's more, the fields smaller than Juren's family have increased their production again!

Hey, no matter how you look at it, I think Shibalipu has a bright future.

Although they planted more peanuts this year, they can be sold to oil mills even if they are not sold to grain stations. Peanuts can also be squeezed for oil!

"The location of Lao Yu's ancestral grave is better." Lao Ni raised his glass jokingly: "Do you think so?"

"Yeah!" He began to boo, and everyone laughed along with him.

"What's the matter with managing the ancestral graves? It's because people are less capable than juren. There are a lot of rewards here, and people don't eat alone. Give it to us, and let us follow along." Someone looked at the problem from another angle: "I told you about my mutton. Make a meal of dumplings and feed them to the children, so that they can also get a taste of this cleverness."

Everyone knows that the three things designed by Yu Juren have helped a lot, and everyone can farm quickly now.

The corn was no longer rubbed by hand, but was threshed with a thresher. Even when the grain was handed over, the tax official greeted them with a smile on Shibalipu.

"My family made stewed soup, drink it together, and have another meal!"

"I just let my family fry it with scallions, and I also let the children eat it. They will be smart in the future!"

"That's a good idea!"

Someone else inquired: "Where are so many big carts, and they brought food here?"

"Yeah, I heard it's all rice and white flour, so Xiao Ju's family doesn't need to buy grain this year!"

"I heard there is pork?" Old Ni thought for a while, and asked Yu Liangji loudly: "Young Juren, your family has pork. Do you still kill pigs during the Chinese New Year?"

"Kill!" Yu Liangji said with a smile: "The piglets bought at your house have grown so big, if you don't kill the meat, you will grow old."

"Then have you finished eating?" Everyone was worried, the rewarded pork was delivered frozen, they just knew that there was such a thing, and the ones from above must be indispensable.

Plus two pigs, isn't that too much?

"After eating, I've made up my mind. I'll take this opportunity to say hello to everyone. My family slaughters pigs on the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month. That day happens to be the day when I give filial piety to my little nephew. Please come here, sisters-in-law and aunts at home." Do me a favor, and the children will come over to have a meal. I plan to eat all of one pig, and use the rest for the New Year. As for the rewards given above, I will freeze them. Throughout the year, the oil at home is also a large amount." Yu Liangji already had a plan.

Everyone can understand, who doesn't know that less than Juren hires people to plant land, all year round, spring planting and autumn harvest, [-] helpers are fixed, and the wages are high every year, and the treatment is good. Now ten miles and eight villages Who doesn't know?

"That's right, you have a lot of family members, so you need a lot of things." The old village head felt that Yu Juren's words made sense.

To remove the filial piety for the little nephew, you need to treat guests to dinner.

Except for the filial piety, you can socialize normally. Last year, in order to save face for Xiao Juren, when the pig was slaughtered, they didn't braise it in soy sauce.

They are all steamed or cut in vain, and they are all taken care of by Xiao Juren, who has a baby Yu who is still keeping his filial piety. Although the child is small, he has a capable uncle!

"Then my family will be ready on the first day of the twelfth lunar month."

"My family is in the second grade of junior high school, and there is not much oil and water in the house."

"I was in the third grade of junior high school, and I happened to be hungry for two days, that big fat pig."

The big guy took advantage of the situation and arranged the time for killing the pigs until Xiaonian.

They all tacitly avoided taboos. Although they knew that they would give Yu Juren something, they must have given money the same as the last two times.

But the old village chief was there at that time, he was a tight-lipped person, and he didn't say a word about the bonus to his family after he went out.

My family members are smart enough to never ask this question.

The old village head has this attitude, and others dare not speak up. After all, it is too much to inquire about other people's bonuses.

Everyone was talking about Yu Juren's rewards, and Yu Juren also showed things for everyone to see. In fact, they were all things like silk and satin, as well as cattle, sheep and pigs.

Of course, those jade ruyis, jade pendants and the like are also eye-catching. Everyone is talking about these things, and no one talks about the bonus issue.

This meal was very happy, the old village head was full of red, and he walked with vigor, and others were even more so, especially the family of the eight children. You can get the same treatment as Xiao Juren, but as long as you have less than half of the achievements of Juren, you can wake up laughing from a dream!

Yu Juren personally took two jade pendants to the school at night, and gave them to the two gentlemen, one for each of them. The pattern he picked had a good meaning, one fish leaping over the dragon's gate was given to Lin Jie, and the other tiger roaring forest was given to Hong Zetao.

Now that there are no students in the school, the two of them study their own mess all day long.

"If you can pass the mock exam this time, you can go to the government to take the exam next autumn." Yu Juren brought two exam papers for the two of them by the way.

The questions in it are all written by him himself, and let the two of them write them. This kind of mock exam is often held in the Eighteenth Academy.

"Thank you sir for your guidance." The two of them were very respectful, as the saying goes, "the best comes first".

Shi Hongda really had a lot, he brought a sheep over, "Benefit more, winter is the time for nourishment."

Lin Jie smiled lightly, he didn't like mutton very much, no matter how he handled it, he felt it had a fishy smell; Hong Zetao was very happy, he likes mutton!

After seeing the two gentlemen, they went home together and started to prepare for the slaughter of pigs on the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the kitchen had already begun to choose beans, because they needed to prepare sticky bean buns, hot rice cakes, and yellow rice for Laba.

"Should someone send a message to Zhang's family tomorrow?" Yu Juren lay in bed: "It's one thing for me to get a reward, and besides, Laba is about to give filial piety to the children, so even if they don't come , there must be an explanation, right?"

Apart from him, Yu Baobao is the only maternal ancestral family that is related by blood. These years, people have come to visit Yu Baobao.

"On the third day of the twelfth lunar month, ask Liu Wenxi to take the father and son of the Ba family there." Shi Hongda thought for a while: "Just take the sheep you got there, it's a celebration. As for the matter of filial piety, if the weather is cold, don't let people come over, the old man and the old lady can't stand the trouble."

"Yeah." Yu Liangji thought it was good, so he did it.

On the third day of the twelfth lunar month, people went, and when they came back on the fourth day, the three of them brought a sheep, a bag of rice and a bag of flour, and brought back four pairs of pheasants and two pairs of geese.

"The old man originally wanted to come here, but I persuaded him. In this cold weather, we can't stand walking like this. We have to drink a large bowl of ginger syrup when we enter the house. Their old bodies, so don't toss about it, old man Two mouthfuls gave us this, the pheasant made soup for the young master to replenish his body, and the big goose said... that it was used to commemorate the deceased son-in-law." Liu Wenxi's voice was three minutes lower when he said the last sentence.

"It doesn't have to be like this, they can still remember my elder brother, that's what they care about the baby the most." Yu Juren doesn't shy away from these things: "Go down and have a rest, don't catch a cold when you are on the road in this cold weather, remember to spend more time at night. Have some ginger soup."

"Hey!" Liu Wenxi nodded, and then went back in a snowstorm.

After he came back, he went directly to the main room with his things and reported to the little master. He hadn't gone back to change his clothes yet. He was wrapped in a thick cotton robe, and there were also big clothes made of sheepskin outside, which were especially resistant to wind pressure and snow. Well, it was made by Aya for the big guys. On their grasslands, this kind of coat is worn in winter, and it is the most warm.

After he left, Yu Ju sent the things to the kitchen, Chef Huang knew how to do it.

After coming back, I sat on the kang and looked up. The sky was still gloomy. I haven’t seen the sun since the twelfth lunar month. The temperature in the shed can be guaranteed, but the sun can’t be guaranteed. There is no fluorescent lamp at this time Give him an envoy.

"Why are you in a daze?" Shi Hongda came in with two bowls of soup, which was just brought by Mrs. Huang, and what he ate at noon today was watery belly.

A large bowl of soup, which contains haggis and tripe, all shredded, as well as brushed vegetables and vermicelli.

"I'm thinking, it's right not to let them come over. The weather looks very cold." Yu Liangji took a big hot bowl, and the soup bowl was so big that it almost reached his face.

Although the house has been sweeping snow, it has not been swept outside. Although Yu Juren can't go far, the snowdrifts piled up on both sides of the road are higher than others.

"It's going to be crazy this winter, it's so cold to the bone." Shi Hongda gave him a pair of chopsticks, and his own pair of chopsticks, lifted his legs onto the kang, and sat in front of the kang table.

"Yeah, it's so cold, I'm afraid there will be a disaster." In the north, he has only been here for less than three years, and as far as the original owner remembers, the winter has never been so cold.

What's more, in Yu Liangji's previous life, there were many warm winters and few cold winters, which is good, and he almost caught up with the Arctic Village he visited that year.

It is said that it is the coldest village in the country!

He now feels like he is in the coldest village in the whole country!

"Hurry up and drink it while it's hot, so you don't have to dislike it when it gets cold." Shi Hongda tapped the edge of his bowl with the chopsticks: "Some people worry about this kind of thing."

Yu Juren looked disgusted: "If you don't mention it, I won't pay attention to it. If you mention it like this, I still think it's disgusting!"

Shi Hongda: "...!"

In the early morning of Laba, I ate fried bean buns. Since I knew that the young master likes to eat Mrs. Qiao’s fried bean buns, Mrs. Huang learned from Mrs. Qiao for half a month. Yu Liangji's tongue is not that strong, and he can't taste it at all.

For lunch snacks, there is no big bowl of yellow rice and bean rice for one person. You can mix it with lard and fine salt, and you can eat it directly.

The family did not feed the pigs today.

Early in the morning on the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, the sky was still gloomy, and the sun was still not visible.

It was only six o'clock, and Yu Juren got up. After washing and dressing, he went to the baby's room, dug the baby out of the bed, washed his face, brushed his teeth, and dressed him, and then took him out for breakfast.

"You get rid of the filial piety with the baby first, and after you're done, take the children to Che's house to avoid killing." Shi Hongda drank half a bowl of porridge in one gulp: "Don't take the children away if it's too cold, I'll let Ba Duo drive Take your little carriage and pull the children over there."

"Okay, you can do your work at home, and leave the children to me." Yu Liangji picked out a duck egg yolk, put it in a bowl for Yu Baobao, and ate the duck egg white with rice porridge.

He can't do anything else, but he can still take care of the children.
