The life of farming in ancient times with a system

Chapter 179

"Seeing how well you raise pigs, I also want to raise pigs. After raising them for more than half a year, they can kill and eat meat during the Chinese New Year, and the whole family can have a peaceful and beautiful New Year." Lin Zhou said.

"It won't work this year. We can only wait for next year. Next spring, when the snow outside melts, my uncle will go catch the piglets." Jiang Ya said.

Lin Zhou rolled his eyes and said, "Then what should we do this year?"

"This year?" Jiang Ya didn't seem to understand what he meant, and said flatly: "Young master gave you tens of catties of pork, all of which are lean meats that you like to eat, enough for you to eat until the beginning of spring next year. "

"I should go, come back after you feed the pigs." Lin Zhou gave him a glare, turned and left.

"Why is he so weird?" Wei Shi walked over and said.

"I'm messing with my brain again." Jiang Ya snorted coldly and said with contempt.

"Him?" Wei Shi looked at him in a daze.

"Give him meat, but he still thinks it's too little, and wants a pig. He's the kind of person who never knows enough. If you give him two pigs, he'll die laughing." Jiang Ya said.

The old carpenter came over and interrupted them, saying: "Stop talking, pack up quickly, and go eat up there. It's late, and the food is cold."

Jiang Ya said: "You guys go first, I'll watch over here. When you finish eating, come back and replace me."

Wei Shi shook his head and said, "It's better for you to go, I will guard."

"So many pigs, how do you plan?" Lin Yue tried his best to support his father's style.

He is a man of no ability. When he was young, he saved a rich man named Zhou and arranged a marriage for his son.Seeing that the son was growing up, the family came to the door and withdrew from the marriage. Many years of planning were in vain.Seeing that he couldn't become a rich man, he simply gave up.The family was separated, and they devoted themselves to serving the family's one-acre and three-point land. The two of them were full and the whole family was not hungry.As for the homeless youngest son, let him die.

He never dreamed that the most capable person was the youngest son he despised the most. He was somewhat uncomfortable in front of the youngest son, feeling like he owed the youngest son.

"I have already planned to kill one pig every day and send the meat to the supermarket in the city for sale. According to the steward, the supermarket has a lot of people, and one pig can be sold out very quickly," Lin Shen said.

As soon as Lin Yue heard that there was nothing to do with him, Lin Yue became unhappy: "Sell it all, don't keep two ends, can I eat it at home?"

"Now that the weather is cold, the meat can be preserved. After a year of civilization, the meat cannot be preserved. The remaining meat is enough for the family to eat." Lin Shen said.

"Your aunt also wants to raise pigs." Lin Yue tried his best, not wanting to speak too bluntly.

"When spring begins, I'll take Ah Mo to catch the little piglets." Lin Shen said.

At this time, Qingming stood not far away, looking over from a distance.

"time to eat."

Lin Shen walked over first, and Lin Yue followed behind hesitantly.

Qing Ming couldn't help but look at him more.

Lin Yue and Lin Zhoushi sat together, and the two of them muttered for a while, and their expressions were not very good-looking.

Lin Yue said in a low voice, "Don't mention it anymore, I've already tested it, so it's meaningless for you to mention it again. If you annoy people again, you and I will be embarrassed to come to the door in the future."

"I don't want much, it's just a pig. Even if I have to raise it in the coming year, the piglets must be led by the big pigs to grow well. They are so rich that they don't care about it anymore." Lin Zhou muttered softly, The sound was only audible to the two of them.

Lin Yue frowned slightly, suppressing his impatience and said: "I told you not to talk about it.",

Zhou Zichu craned his neck to eavesdrop.

Lin Bing tugged his clothes, Zhou Zichu sat down on the chair obediently, and said coyly, "I just want to hear what Dad and Ah Mo are talking about."

"If you have the skills, why don't you help me?" Lin Bing raised his chin, motioning Zhou Zichu to look over.Zhou Zichu didn't understand, so he raised his eyes and looked over.Qingming took what was in Xiaotao's hand and was talking to Xiaotao.Zhou Zichu remembered that last year, Xiaotao was still honest with Qingming.

Lin Bing said, "Look at Qingming, he has been busy."

Zhou Zichu was dissatisfied, and argued, "I just finished my work, and you didn't see me while I was working."

Lin He reached out for a plate, and quietly grabbed handfuls of fried peanuts.He did it secretly, thinking that no one would see his little movements, and Lin Yue would see his every move.

Lin Yue threw herself on his knee and said softly, "Father, I want to eat peanuts too."

"What to eat? Get the hell out of here, you can't handle it yourself." Lin He said impatiently.

Lin Yue sat down on the ground with tears welling up in her eyes.

"Yue'er, get up quickly." Qing Ming quickly helped him up, patted the dust off his clothes, and said softly.

Helping Lin Yue to a chair beside him, and grabbed a handful of peanuts for him, Qing Ming said with disapproval: "Yue'er is your own flesh and blood after all, can't you treat him better?"

"Except for eating and crying, there is no use at all. If I knew that I was born with a brother, I should have killed him at that time. The child born by a slut will grow up to be a slut! Just like his aunt, he is a slut It's a thing." Lin He was deeply concerned about Zhang Xiaoke's "betrayal", and when he saw Lin Yue, he either beat or scolded her.

As soon as Jiang Daizhen stepped into the room, he heard Lin He's loud words, and his face immediately fell down.For those who are celebrating the new year, Lin He keeps talking about a slut, who is he scolding?

"Second brother, are you scolding me?"

Lin He was taken aback, and looked at him timidly: "I didn't, I didn't scold you, I scolded Zhang Xiaoke, he is just a bitch, he often speaks ill of me behind my back."

Lin He said to the outside world that he was returning to his hometown in good clothes, and he never mentioned Lin Shen's rescue of him.Zhang Xiaoke was working in the workshop, so Xiaotao and Jiang Ya heard the news, of course he knew the truth, and exposed his lies in one fell swoop, which made him very ashamed.

"This bitch gave birth to you, and you just scold him like this, is your conscience okay?" Jiang Daizhen said angrily.

Lin Zhou opened her mouth, about to speak for Lin He.

Lin Shen said with a displeased face: "Second brother, you are celebrating the new year, can you say something nice?"

"I didn't scold you again. What are you doing? I scolded Zhang Xiaoke. He said bad things about me, so I can't scold him anymore? We are a family, so don't turn your elbows away." Lin He said.

Lin Shen scolded: "Second Brother, the more you talk, the more outrageous you become! According to your opinion, if you kill and set fire outside, should we stand by your side?"

Lin He was not convinced: "Where is this going?"

"If you don't want to kill yourself, don't implicate us." Lin Shen said again.

Lin He wanted to say more, but Zhang Xiaoke covered his mouth and said harshly, "Say less."

Lin He glared at Lin Shen bitterly, and brushed Zhang Xiaoke's hand away vigorously.

"Eat, eat." Lin Bing stood up to smooth things over. He was too stupid to say this.

This method is a bit stupid, but it works.After finishing speaking, the dignified atmosphere in the room really relaxed.

"Yes, eat. The chef's craftsmanship is so good, this food smells delicious." Lin Yue said.

Lin Shen pulled Jiang Daizhen to sit down, and said softly, "Your hands are so cold."

"I'm playing in the snow." Jiang Dai smiled embarrassedly.

Lin Shen picked up a cup of hot tea and stuffed it into his hand, letting him warm up.

Jiang Daizhen smiled sweetly at him.

Lin Shen: "Eat a piece of meat."

Lin Shen took a piece of lean meat, Jiang Daizhen opened his mouth naturally, and bit off the meat affectionately.

Zhou Zichu secretly watched this scene, and his cheeks became slightly hot.

Lin Zhou also saw it, cleared his throat, and glanced at Lin Yue next to him without any trace.

Lin Yue said in a low voice, "It's in broad daylight, how decent it is."

Qingming kept his head down, as if he didn't see the undercurrent on the table.

In fact, he saw it. Before everyone found out, he lowered his head again. No one saw the envy and loss on his face.

He knew that as long as he followed Lin He for a day, he and Lin He would not love each other like Jiang Daizhen and Lin Shen.Even if Lin He is willing to learn from Lin Shen, he will not be Jiang Daizhen, he doesn't like Lin He.For a person like him, love and love are trivial matters, how to live and live well is what he has to consider.

"Qingming, give me a dish."

He ignored Lin He, but Lin He wanted to provoke him.

Qingming raised his eyes, looked at the plate close at hand, and said strangely: "Can't you reach it?"

"If you let me hold you back, you will hold me back." Lin He glanced at Lin Shen and Jiang Daizhen, and he also wanted to show his affection.

Qing Ming sat still: "You can get there by yourself."

"Will you hold me back?" Lin He said angrily.

"I'll hold you back." Qing Ming had no choice but to do as he did.

Lin He shook his head and squinted at Lin Bing and Zhou Zichu.

Zhou Zichu felt the pressure, and tentatively said, "How about I hold a chopstick for you too?"

"No, you eat your own." Lin Bing said, he took a chopsticks dish for Zhou Zichu, put it in the bowl in front of him and said, "This chicken stew is very tasty, you can try it."

Lin Bing is a practical guy, if he has the time to cheat, he might as well hurry up and fill his stomach.

"Qingming, you are so kind to me." Lin He said coquettishly, pulling Qingming's arm.

Qing Ming shivered, pulled out his arm and said, "Don't do this, I've got goosebumps."

Lin He looked at him speechlessly.

Lin Shen cleared his throat, raised his glass first and said, "Happy New Year everyone."

Everyone picked up the cups one after another. The fruit wine in the cups was brewed by themselves. Those who didn't know how to drink used tea instead of wine.

"Happy New Year." Jiang Daizhen said.

"Everything goes well." Lin Bing said.

"Happy family." Qing Ming said.

Mrs. Lin Zhou sipped the wine in the glass, sighed and said, "Unfortunately, my little grandson is not at home."

Lin Yue glared at him, and said in a low voice, "Can't you say something festive about Chinese New Year?"

"Isn't it a happy event to have a baby?" Lin Zhou was not convinced.

"I'm really envious of Zhenzhen, the child is looked after by someone. I thought I wanted Ah Mo to take care of me after I gave birth to Xing Xing, but Ah Mo said he was not in good health and couldn't take care of him. Your elder brother is busy outside every day, so you can rely on me It is too hard for a person to do housework and take care of the children." Zhou Zichu said.

What's the use of holding the child back, and you don't help take care of it.

If Lin Zhou didn't mention this, Zhou Zichu might never say these complaints in his life.

Lin He is eloquent and has a particularly sweet mouth. Lin Yue and Lin Zhou are the most partial.He gave birth before Zhang Xiaoke. Mrs. Lin Zhou came to see the child and left. She didn't like the child at all, let alone shit and pee on the child.When they arrived at Lin Yue's place in Lin Hai's family, Lin Zhou changed his face again, saying that Zhang Xiaoke was not easy, Zhang's family was too busy to make it through, and took care of her for a year. How could Zhou Zichu not be angry?

Lin Zhou's eyeballs almost popped out.

Jiang Daizhen didn't answer, Lin Shen said: "We get the child back, can Ah help take care of it?"

Lin Zhou's heart was blocked, and she said weakly: "I just said that casually, how can our family's conditions compare with Jiang's? Besides, I am clumsy and my child is so delicate, so I can't stand it." toss?"

Taking care of children is exhausting and labor-intensive. There is no benefit in taking good care of children, and you will be blamed if they are not taken care of well.Lin Zhou will not ask for trouble.

"Ama is so clumsy. I remember that Ahma took care of Lin Yue, and Lin Yue grew up in a blink of an eye. Everyone said that she has experience, so she should be better at taking care of children." Zhou Zichu said with a smile.

Lin Zhou shot a knife in the eye, wishing to stab Zhou Zichu to death.

"It's Chinese New Year, can't you say something else?"

What the hell, why bother with this topic?

"I..." Zhou Zichu wanted to say more, but Lin Bing grabbed his hand and signaled him not to say any more with his eyes.

"My child is being looked after, so don't worry about it." Jiang Daigu came out to make a rescue.

Lin Zhou nodded again and again: "Extremely, extremely."

He wished that this topic would be brought to light quickly.

"If you don't tell me, you just won't listen." Lin Yue scolded.

"It's all the old people who turned the small intestines, and turned up some old sesame seeds and rotten millet." Lin Zhou said bitterly.

"The old man is ignorant, so don't mess with him." Lin Yue said sullenly.

After beating Mrs. Lin Zhou, Zhou Zichu was refreshed and even ate half a bowl of rice.

"Really, I want to eat this roast chicken."

"I asked Xiaotao to pack it for you, what else do you want?" Jiang Daizhen said with a smile on his face.

"No more, these are enough." Zhou Zichu wanted to ask for more, but he was a little embarrassed.

"If you don't dislike these dishes, you can take them all away." Jiang Daizhen said.

"Why do you dislike it?" Zhou Zichu was overjoyed.

Seeing that Zhou Zichu had cleaned up all the dishes on the table, Lin He's eyes were very hot. He pulled Qingming's clothes and said, "You want to order something, we can't go back empty-handed."

Qingming was a little cautious: "You still want it, I'm sorry."

"Then there's nothing to be embarrassed about. My sister-in-law has opened her mouth, so you should be thicker." Lin He said.

"Go." Qing Ming pushed Lin He.

Seeing that things were almost gone, Lin He became anxious.

"Sister-in-law, leave some for us."

Zhou Zichu smiled and said, "Okay."

In addition to taking away the leftovers, each family also took away a chicken.The chicken is processed, the hair on the body is plucked, and the internal organs are washed clean.

"That's more or less the same." Mrs. Lin Zhou carried the chicken and walked out with a smile on her face.

Lin Yue held his head high and said, "I'll stew it when I get back."

"I have to thank sister-in-law today, he blocked my wife several times." Xiaotao said while washing the cup.

"Indeed, sister-in-law is very brave today, Ah Mo's face is very exciting." Jiang Daizhen was overjoyed.

"Sister-in-law has resentment, Ah Mo is too partial to Brother Lin." Jiang Ya said.

"This is what happens when a bowl of water is uneven. Fortunately, I didn't expect him to help me, otherwise I would only be disappointed." Jiang Daizhen said with emotion.

Facing Ah Mo like this, it was not easy for Zhou Zichu, and it was hard not to be resentful.

While talking, Jiang Ya put down the things in his hands, stood up and said, "When I'm going to replace Wei, let him come over for dinner too."

"Okay, you go quickly." Jiang Daizhen said.

Jiang En fell asleep, snoring a little while lying on the kang.

Jiang Daizhen picked him up, changed his posture, and let him sleep on his back.

"You and Yu Huai don't plan to have children yet?"

"I am a child myself, so why do I have children? I see that those who want to have children live in dire straits every day. The children howl from morning to night without even a break, and their eyes are blue. How tired the child is. It’s okay for the child to be obedient. If the child is too naughty, he will go up the tree to catch birds, and then go down the river to catch fish, and make the house crazy all day long. Just thinking about it makes my head bigger Several laps." Xiaotao said.

"That's true, if I didn't help me, I don't know how embarrassed I am." Jiang Daizhen said.

"Yu Huai doesn't want it either, he said it depends on me." Xiaotao said.

Speaking of Yu Huai, he came soon and helped Xiaotao finish the conversation, and the couple came to Jiang Daizhen.Jiang Daizhen gave Xiaotao a few days off and asked him to spend a good year at Yu's house.

Xiaotao said, "No need, I'll be here tomorrow. I'd rather stay here than face those relatives of the Yu family."

All the relatives in Yu's family knew who Xiaotao was working for, and they always wanted to come over to make friends, let Xiaotao arrange a job for her, and make Xiaotao very annoyed.

Yu Huai looked at Xiaotao helplessly.

Jiang Daizhen said that he wanted to eat hot pot.

"Can you eat spicy food?" Lin Shen asked.

"Yes, I can eat spicy food very well." Jiang Daizhen said with certainty.

Lin Shen looked at him in disbelief. He still remembered the way Jiang Daizhen ate some spicy food last time, and his eyes were full of tears.

"I make a mandarin duck pot, one pot is clear soup, and the other pot is spicy soup." Lin Shen said.

"Is there such a pot?" Jiang Daizhen said.

"I asked someone to make it, and put a piece of iron in the middle to separate the two kinds of soup." Lin Shen said.

Lin Shen ran to the kitchen to make hot pot, while the cook watched carefully.

Tear the chicken into pieces, and then pour the chicken soup that has been boiled for almost a day to taste the saltiness.Add some salt if you think it is too light, and the clear soup is ready.The spicy soup is even better. Pour some chili oil into the clear soup, then put some dried chili cut in half, cook for a while, and the spicy aroma will come out.

The cook sneezed and said, "This taste is strong enough."

The handyman went to the greenhouse and came back with a lot of vegetables.

Watching Lin Shen put vegetables into the pot, the cook went out and brought something in his hand: "There is also frozen tofu."

There are square cubes of radish floating in the hot pot, as well as frozen tofu cut into small pieces.

Jiang Ya couldn't help taking a deep breath: "It's so fragrant."

The chef's knife skills are excellent. He cut the mutton into thin slices, put it outside for a while, and then it was frozen into mutton rolls.When eating, just throw the mutton roll into the pot.

There are also beef and pork rolls, all neatly stacked on the plate.

Whether you like clear soup or spicy soup, you will be fully satisfied.

Jiang En is young, but he can eat spicy food very well.His lips were hot and red, and he kept drinking boiled water. Jiang Ya asked him to eat something that was not spicy, but Jiang En was still reluctant, so he took the chopsticks to scoop out something from the spicy soup.

"Enen, do you like spicy food or not?" Jiang Daizhen asked.

"Spicy." Jiang En said, pointing to the pot with hot peppers.

"Eat less spicy food, it's easy to get acne." Lin Shen advised.

"Is it this kind of acne?" Jiang Ya pointed to a small bag on his forehead and said.

"Yes, you are on fire, you need to drink more water." Lin Shen said with a glance.

Jiang Ya looked at Jiang Daizhen, and said distressedly: "What should I do?"

Jiang Daizhen said: "I'll take you to see an old Chinese doctor. No disease can trouble him."

"That's great." Jiang Ya smiled.

"I also have to go to a Chinese medicine doctor, and ask him to feel my pulse and help me recuperate my body." Jiang Daizhen said.

Lin Shen smiled and said, "When will you go, I will accompany you."

At the end of the meal, there was no soup in the pot, only some soup base, and the vegetables and meat were eaten clean.

After eating the last piece of meat, Wei Shi burped and said, "It's so delicious, my stomach is full."

Wei Nian also ate a lot, took a break in the middle, and went to the table to continue eating.

In fact, everyone is the same.

Lin Shen bought a lot of fireworks, which attracted all the adults and children in the village.He found an open place to set off fireworks, and after each firework rose into the sky, the children would cheer.

The screams pierced the night, attracting more people to watch the fireworks.

Lin Shen grabbed Jiang Daizhen's hand, Jiang Daizhen shrank his neck in fright, and kept saying, "I can't, I really don't dare."

"It's okay, don't be afraid. After lighting it up, I'll run with you, and the fireworks won't fall on you." Hearing that Jiang Daizhen didn't let off the fireworks, Lin Shen wanted to take him to experience it.

Jiang Daizhen was almost leaning in his arms, and Lin Shen took his hand as far as possible to move forward.There was only a stabbing sound, and the Huozhezi ignited the Huozhezi.

"Let's go." Lin Shen chuckled in his ear, hugged his waist and backed away.

After taking a few steps back, they heard a whoosh, the sound of fireworks rising into the sky.The fireworks rose higher and higher, and exploded at the highest point, scattering into thousands of silver flowers.

"It's so beautiful." Jiang Daizhen raised his head and stared blankly at the sky above the zenith.

He watched the fireworks intently, and Lin Shen looked at him intently.

He withdrew his gaze, and Lin Shen also withdrew his gaze.

After a bunch of fireworks were set off, the children looked at Lin Shen expectantly.

"There's more." Lin Shen said live up to everyone's expectations.

The fireworks were set off in the middle of the night, until Lin Shen said there was no more, and the children followed the adults and left happily.

On the first day of the new year, Lin Xing and Lin Yue came to pay New Year's greetings and received big red envelopes from Lin Shen and Jiang Daizhen respectively.

Back at his home, Zhou Zichu opened the delicate purse, and was taken aback by the money inside: "Why did the third child give so much?"

No wonder it is heavy to lift.

Lin Bing came over, took a look and said, "It's worth five taels."

"Yeah, it's more than Chinese New Year. This five taels of silver is enough for the children to be educated. The third child said that next year, a house will be built and a primary school will be built for the children in the village. Teachers will be specially invited to teach the children." Zhou Zichu Said beamingly.

Lin Bing said: "This idea is good, my brother can also go to school."

Lin He stretched out his hand and said sullenly, "Give me the purse."

Lin Yue hid the little lotus bag behind her back, and said timidly, "This is my new year's money."

"Give it to me! I'm so courageous that I don't even listen to my head, do you?" Lin He's eyes started to spit fire.

Lin Yue dared not speak, and shook her head slightly.

Lin He raised his eyebrows and said, "I tell you to give it to me. If you dare to be disobedient, I will beat you to death."

He pulled Lin Yue into his arms, Lin Yue struggled desperately, her little face wrinkled into a ball, she looked like she was about to cry.

"Go away, you brat still dares to fight with me, you are courting death!"

In the end, Lin He snatched the delicate purse.A stern look flashed across his face, and he pushed Lin Yue to the ground forcefully.

"This is my purse." Lin Yue cried.

"Even you are mine, and your money is mine." Lin He opened his purse.Seeing the shiny little silver cakes, the whole person became ecstatic, and said with a big smile, "It's really generous, this is the benefit of the rich, and a few taels of silver are given out as a new year's money."

"Give it back to me. This is my school money." Lin Yue rushed over, was kicked by Lin He, and fell to the ground again.

Everyone in the village knew that Lin Shen was going to build a house and run a school, and my brother could also go to school, and there was a tuition fee for going to school.Ah Ma taught him that Father is unreliable, he needs to learn how to save money by himself, he wants to read and write, and become a sensible person in the future.

Watching Lin He put the Qian Kuehzi into his arms and throw away the small pouch casually.Lin Yue touched the empty purse, and tears fell down.

Qing Ming came over after hearing the sound, and asked, "Why do you beat the child when it's Chinese New Year?"

"What's wrong with me beating him? If he dares to cry, I'll beat him to death." Lin He kicked Lin Yue with his toe.

"Are you crazy?" Qing Ming didn't have any feelings for this child, he wanted to protect this child to some extent for Zhang Xiaoke's sake.

He rushed over, protected Lin Yue behind him, and said in a cold voice, "Don't you know how to be ashamed as an adult who still robs children of money?"

"Who made me have no money? I asked you for it, but you didn't give it to me. Aren't you rich every month? Where did all your money go?" Lin He said dissatisfied.

Lin He reached out to ask Qingming for money, how could Qingming give it to him?He excused that he bought something and spent it, or lent it to a former friend.

"Didn't I just say that I lent it to Qiao Er. He is sick and needs money to see a doctor, and he has no savings. We have been friends for many years, and I can't just leave it alone." Qing Ming said.

Lin He rolled his eyes: "Forget it, I don't count on you."

"It's going to be another big market soon. I want to buy a few feet of floral cloth to make you a new dress." Qing Ming said.

Lin He reluctantly distributed some money to him, and told him: "You can't borrow money from outsiders anymore, my family is almost dying of poverty."

"Oh." Qing Ming readily agreed.

When Lin He left, he returned the money to Lin Yue, touched his hand and said, "I can only promise you to recover this, you'd better give the money to your aunt for safekeeping, don't let your father find out gone."

Lin Yue nodded with tears in her eyes.

...
