    Xiangniang and the others went to Master Erdong's house first, and Song Yuzhou took Fang Xi to Brother Liu's house to look after the sheep. They were still far outside the yard. When Aunt Liu saw them both, she greeted them: "Oh, brother and sister-in-law of the Song family are here. You two won't come today!"

"Sister-in-law Liu, happy Chinese New Year" Song Yuzhou greeted Fang Xi and entered the yard.

Sister-in-law Liu got up and pointed to the stools in the yard: "Happy Chinese New Year, Happy New Year, you sit down first. Brother Liu has gone to town, and I'll show you the sheep." Sister-in-law Liu went to the backyard to fetch the sheep

, At this time, a little carrot-headed doll came running over, his little face was scorched red by the fire, his round eyes were wide open, and his voice was crisp: "Who are you looking for?" Fang Xi squatted down with a

smile Lower body, fingertips touched the baby's face: "We are looking for your mother."

The baby wanted to hold Fang Xi's hand: "My mother has gone to the back, I will take you, will you go?"

Fang Xi He and Song Yuzhou both laughed, Fang Xi simply sat with the baby in his arms, touched the peanuts in his pocket that he had just had tea with, took out the peanuts and said, "What's your name? I'll give it to you." Peel the peanuts and eat them or not?"

"Auntie called me Xiaobao, I want to—"

"Baa——"

The sound of the sheep bleating interrupted them, and Mrs. Liu led the goat out. It was not too small, and I guessed It weighs eighty pounds and is covered in brown hair. It is a well-muscled running goat, and its meat must be of good quality. Fang Xi got up holding the doll: "Sister-in-law's doll looks really lucky!"

Sister-in-law Liu: "Oh! What a blessing or not, I'm going to die of skin, let me tell you, I owe him in my previous life."

Fang Xi Xi smiled: "The child's skin is really good." Song Yuzhou had already peeled the peanuts for Xiaobao to eat one by one with puffy cheeks.

Mrs. Liu continued: "Don't talk about it, this baby will follow his father. His father has been jumping up and down since he was a child. It's better for the two of you to look stable. If you give birth to a baby, you will be good babies if you follow him." Song

Yuzhou Smiling: "Then I'm going to follow Ah Xi."

Fang Xi blushed easily, and quickly changed the subject: "This sheep looks really good, Brother Liu must have spent a lot of time hunting it!"

Sister Liu: "That's it, the wind blows The ones that are exposed to the sun can only be obtained by squatting every day. This sheep is good, if the live sheep caught in the trap, they can't live for so long."

Fang Xi: "It's really hard work, let's give you the rest of the money Sister-in-law Liu

: "Well, last time I paid a deposit of 5 taels, our fellow villagers, of course, did not lose you. The seventy-eight catties of lamb, counting your gross weight of twenty-five cents a catty, total ten Nine taels and five, and you can give me fourteen taels and five."

Song Yuzhou took out the money and tied it together: "Okay, we made sauced mutton, and brought some for sister-in-law Xiaobao."

Goats are hard to hunt, Song Yuzhou After buying the whole one, Auntie Liu's family naturally has nothing to spare. Hearing this, Auntie Liu also smiled and said, "Oh, that's really polite. We will kill rabbits tomorrow, and we will bring you rabbit meat to try."

Song Yuzhou: "Okay, then let's take it away first."

Aunt Liu: "Okay, I have to come over to drink tea during the Chinese New Year!" "

Then I will definitely come to pay New Year's greetings." Face, finally said goodbye to Mrs. Liu, and left with the goat.

Fang Xi touched the goat's fur while walking, it felt very soft and soft to the touch, and he was a little stubborn, and Song Yuzhou had to pull it when he walked. Song Yuzhou tugged and said, "It's just right to peel off the fur and make a knee pad for each of us. In winter, wrap it tightly to keep out the cold."

Fang Xi: "Well, let's go back and do it. Let's take it to the cowshed first, Erdong Master will be there soon." "Okay."

Song Yuzhou responded, and suddenly remembered the way Fang Xi was holding Xiaobao just now, and suddenly He took his hand and said to him: "Axi, we will do the same in the future."

"What?" Fang Xi didn't know why.

"We will also be the father of the child, Asang, holding the child and having fun." Song Yuzhou looked at him seriously, with yearning in his eyes.

Fang Xi felt her heart beating again, and she was holding her hand tighter and tighter. Fang Xi avoided his gaze and replied, "Well, good." The two put the goats back and raised them, and locked the yard

. When they arrived at Master Erdong's house, a circle of people had already gathered in their yard. Everyone is wearing coarse smocks, and the big stove in the yard has a whole pot of hot water ready, just waiting for the pigs to be slaughtered.

"You two came just in time, and you just got ready!" Seeing the two of them coming in, Xiangniang hurriedly pulled them over together, and then said, "Didn't your two brothers say that they want to make more New Year's goods, and you two also have to give gifts? Look at this small three hundred catty black-haired pig, I ordered a whole half of it, our family will definitely not be able to finish it, bring the person you want to give as a gift, do you think it is enough?" Song Yuzhou looked at the black-haired pig and said

: "That's enough, not all the bacon, I'll buy some dried fruit to give away."

Xiang Niang: "That's fine."

After they discussed it, Er Dong took the rope and entered the pigsty. Er Dong and his son two The people dragged the pig out of the pigsty by dragging its ears, and then the two brothers and a few big men held the pig down together. They lifted their legs and their heads, and a group of people hurriedly shouted, "Hold it, hold it down!" Together they drove the black-haired pig to the big stool.

The mere sound of the pig's cry had already resounded through half the village. Amidst everyone's laughter, Master Erdong neatly tied the rope to his head, and the two brothers behind him tied his waist with a rope. Xiangniang took the big wooden basin and put it under the pig's neck to catch the blood, and Master Erdong brought the butcher's knife over.

With a knife inserted into the throat, the black-haired pig struggled a few times, and the sound of the blood flowing down gradually became smaller and smaller, and the blood flowed, and soon filled most of the basin. After these are done, start the whole process of boiling water, scalding and shaving.

Er Dongye shaved and asked, "Did I untie half of your pigs for you and you carry them back, or should you take the half back and untie them yourself?" Xiangniang saw it, and she immediately reacted:

" Let's dissect it ourselves, go back and discuss what to do before dividing the meat."

"Okay, then please trouble Er Dongye to cut half of it for us." After speaking, he waved to the two brothers: "You two push the scooter over here, We drag the pork back."
