As it got colder, the daily opening time of the butcher shop was pushed back by half an hour, and changed to Sishi.

The business is still very good, and because Li Qingshan is never short of catties and taels when selling meat, he can cut whatever piece he wants, no matter whether it is the person or the meat case, he has always been clean, and now people who buy meat from him There are quite a lot.

The most obvious thing is that selling two pigs a day is no longer as long as it took to sell all the pigs when the shop first opened.

At the end of the day, Li Qingshan finished work, cleaned the shop and went to the rice shop to buy two buckets of rice and a few buns to fill his stomach, and then went to Zhuzhuang.

At this time, the sun is sunny, it is warm outside, and it is slack season. There are many people chatting, playing chess and doing needlework on both sides of Zhuangzhong Avenue near the wall.

As soon as they saw him enter the farm, many people chatted with him enthusiastically, "Butcher Li is here? Do you want to accept pigs?" "

What's the price of pigs now? Will the price of pigs increase at the end of the year?"

Li Qingshan answered one by one, waiting for him to leave Now, many women and their husbands gathered together and said with a smile: "This Li Tuzi is really good-looking.

" This is such a great situation, the big horse mule has been bought, and the shop has also opened."

Others saw that she praised Li Qingshan without reason, and laughed and said that she might have taken a fancy to Li Qingshan.

The chubby woman was not annoyed, she threw the soles of her shoes into the sewing basket, said with her hands on her hips, "If this Li Tuzi can take a fancy to me, I will immediately kick Tiedan daddy and run with him!" It was Li

Tuzi My son's husband is very good-looking, how can I fall in love with her?

The others also knew that what she said was a joke, so they had a good laugh, and changed the topic again, "Hey, have you heard about Lai Tuzi?"

"What's the matter? Tell me."

"He gambled a lot! His family's wealth was folded!" "

Oh, no wonder I haven't seen him come to collect pigs for a long time."

"I can see that this married man is poor for a while It doesn't matter if you are rich for a while, you have to know how to make progress!"

"No way!"

...

In autumn, when the new cotton came out, Liu Yu, Cong Chunhua and Mrs. Guan set up several sets for the baby who was about to be born at home. A small hug quilt, the quilt is embroidered with willow fish, there is a majestic little tiger, there is a cute little white rabbit, and there is a naive little piglet and so on.

They are all cute little animal patterns, which can be used by both boys and girls. The quilt, small clothes, small bellyband, tiger-toed shoes and diapers all add up to a big box.

The sun was good at noon, so Cong Chunhua excitedly took out the box, washed her hands, and then carefully took out these things one by one to dry.

Liu Yu, who was sitting in the yard basking in the sun, looked at the rope-filled necessities, with a happy smile on his face.

"This sheep is good and produces a lot of milk."

Liuyu has been pregnant for eight months. Counting the days, it will be the twelfth lunar month or the beginning of the next year, but no one can say which day it will be. Therefore, at the beginning of this month, Li Qingshan bought back the ewes that will feed his children.

The old lady Guan went to feed it just now, and squeezed some goat milk by the way.

Cong Chunhua finished drying Zai Zai's clothes, took a closer look, and praised: "It's really a lot." The

milk production of this ewe is also divided into periods. At least the person who specializes in milk-producing ewes has explained to them that this sheep The milk produced within half a month after taking home is not allowed to be imported.

It has been more than half a month now, seeing that the milk in this earthenware pot is more than a catty, such a good thing, it can't be watered anymore, Cong Chunhua took the earthenware pot, and said to Liu Yu: "I'll cook more A few times, I will cook a goat's milk stewed egg for you later."

At that time in June, Brother Tong gave birth to a little brother named Mingjin. Brother Xiaojin was also fed with goat milk. At that time, the goat was in the peak period of milk production, and it could squeeze out five or six catties of milk a day. My brother can't drink it all.

So, Liu Guiying sent some to Liu Yu who was pregnant every day to replenish her body.

Drinking it every day will inevitably make you feel tired, so Cong Chunhua used goat's milk to make some custards, milk cakes, fragrant cakes and crispy cheese for the willow fish. Therefore, she is already familiar with handling this freshly squeezed fresh milk.

Boil repeatedly on high heat, filter repeatedly with silk cloth, and then add water.

The goat milk stewed eggs produced in this way do not have a strong smell, and the taste is tender and delicate, with a strong goat milk fragrance and sweetness. Because it is sprinkled with some chopped candied fruit, it is sour, and the willow fish likes it very much.

There was a catty of milk, and she could squeeze it again at night, so Cong Chunhua made more, and gave her and Mrs. Guan a taste. But to be honest, the two of them really can't get used to that taste.

In winter, when it is warm outside, it is only for a short while. When the sun is westward and it is a little cool, Liu Yu will return to the big kang in the side hall.

Cong Chunhua took back the clothes that were drying outside, and Liu Yu was in charge of folding them. Just at this moment, there was the sound of wheels creaking outside. Hearing the sound, it should be that Li Qingshan had returned. Cong Chunhua put down the clothes and went to open the door. Then happily opened the window beside the Kang.

Sure enough, when he opened the door, he saw Li Qingshan's handsome smiling face.

"Why did you come back at this hour?" If you had dinner in Zhu Xing, you probably wouldn't be able to come back at this hour, so after Li Qingshan unloaded the cart, tied up his mule, changed into clean clothes and went back to the house, Liuyu went to the house. ask.

But at this moment, Li Qingshan threw all his heart into the unfolded clothes on the kang bed, "Why did you find out all our children's things?" Although

Li Qingshan had seen these things countless times, but Every time I see it, I still can't hide my excitement.

Seeing him being so careful, as if he was afraid that his big rough hands would scratch his child's clothes, Liu Yu couldn't help laughing, and said: "The sun is good at noon, and my mother said it would be more sunny." It's comfortable to use when it's in the sun."

After struggling for more than seven months, Li Qingshan, a father, turned over the book today and went to the village with a book to ask some knowledgeable people in the next day. up.

If he is a young man, he will be called Li Che. Li Qingshan and Liu Yu don't want him to become rich and powerful, but only hope that his mind will be as clear and bright as water, and he will be happy for the rest of his life; The name is Li Mian, first, it sounds like a gentle little brother, and second, it symbolizes the love between him and Liu Yu. But now I don't know if it's a little brother or a little man, so I can only scream.

Hearing this, Li Qingshan put down the clothes in his hands, lay down in front of Liu Yu's stomach, gently stroked Liu Yu's belly, and asked him: "Did Zai Zai trouble you today?" "No." Speaking of children, Liu

Yu The corners of Yumei's eyes were full of smiles, and he said quite playfully: "Baby's father taught me a lesson this morning, and I have been obedient all day long."

Li Qingshan's heart softened and swelled when he said this cute and lovely sentence. Ignoring the unfinished clothes on the kang bed, he moaned and moved to the place where Liuyu was leaning on the kang head to hug him, "Miss me?"

Every day as soon as Li Qingshan comes back, Cong Chunhua and Mrs. Guan will go out to do this and that tacitly, in order to leave some alone time for the young couple who haven't seen each other for a long time, let them talk for a while, so hug them now, Not afraid of being seen.

They are all soon to be fathers, and they still want to act like a baby with their husband when they get home, Liu Yu pursed her lips and suppressed a smile, looked up at Li Qingshan but just didn't say what Li Qingshan wanted to hear.

Li Qingshan was dissatisfied, and pretended to be aggressive, "Say it!"

If Li Qingshan had scratched his hands in the morning, but now he didn't dare, and could only show what he thought was a powerful expression.

Liu Yu didn't hold back, broke his power in an instant, smiled for a long time, then looked at the handsome man in front of him very gently, and said sweetly: "Think."

Li Qingshan's expression that he thought he was very powerful could not be maintained live.

"It's more or less the same." The corners of Li Qingshan's lips curled up uncontrollably. His husband doted on him, so he wanted to act like a baby even more. He hummed and lowered his head and rubbed Liu Yu's with the tip of his nose, but he was about to kiss Liu Yu just now. The child in the belly of the fish kicked it.

"Ah." Liu Yu exclaimed, it didn't hurt at all, but it was unavoidable to be shocked when it came so suddenly.

Li Qingshan was also busy, leaning over to Liuyu's belly again, poking into Liuyu's clothes, as usual, gently stroking Liuyu's belly, comforting their cubs, lest he move too much and make Liuyu's stomach hurt.

"Ghost spirit!" Li Qingshan rebuked his child angrily and laughingly while comforting him, "Always fight against daddy!"

But how could the child understand at this time, he thought his daddy was playing with him, Li Qingshan caressed him, and he moved, very naughty.

Looking at the father and son having a great time, Liu Yu smiled very softly and beautifully.

After a while, Zai Zai stopped moving, and Liu Yu asked him why he came back so early.

Only then did Li Qingshan remember what Zhu Xingyou asked him, "How dare I eat that meal!"

Li Qingshan moved his body back, and while massaging Liu Yu's swollen legs, he said to him: "He looks It's time to go to the eldest sister!"

It turned out that during the busy farming season in May, Wang Youcai's mother, Mrs. Liang, collapsed from exhaustion, and Wang Youcai could no longer pretend to be sick, so Wang Youcai's brother-in-law beat him off the bed with a stick and drove him into the field to harvest wheat.

After only one day of mowing, he complained and complained, but when he returned home, he saw that it was a cold pot and a cold stove, and tears almost fell down.

So, the next day, when Li Qingshan and Cong Chunhua were not in the shop, they cried and cried, turned right and wrong, tried to use the public opinion around them to put pressure on Li Suzhi, and wanted Li Suzhi to go back with him.

Although Li Suzhi has been working in the shop for some time, she has seen a little of the world, but whether it is eloquence or the ability to turn right and wrong, she is no match for Wang Youcai.

Everyone pointed at Li Suzhi for a while, and when Li Suzhi was holding back her eyes with tears in her eyes and unable to speak, Zhu Xingyou who came to the shop to buy something cooked and cut it back to add another dish saw her.

Zhu Xingyou was so easy to provoke, without further ado, he picked up Wang Youcai and slapped Wang Youcai twice, and then turned Wang Youcai's bottom upside down.

That day, the news that a man with a broken leg was carried to Huancai Pavilion to ask for someone was spread throughout the county. Everyone didn't expect that Wang Youcai was the one who divorced his wife for the sake of Fengyue woman. They felt deceived for a moment, filled with righteous indignation, and rushed forward, punching and kicking Wang Youcai.

It was also because Wang Youcai was so fragile that he broke a bone again.

So later on, when Li Qingshan and Li Qinghe reckoned that Wang Youcai's leg would be ready and prepared to put a sack on him to tell him to break his leg a second time, they still wondered why Wang Youcai had a broken bone before they did anything.

Could it be that God opened his eyes?

"So, he fell in love with eldest sister at first sight?" Neither Liu Yu nor Li Qingshan had heard Li Suzhi mention this matter, Liu Yu reckoned that she was afraid of trouble, so she probably never told anyone in the family.

"That's not true." The massage can't be too long, Li Qingshan stopped and pinched Liu Yu's feet instead, "According to what he told me, he got in touch with the elder sister a lot later, and thought that the elder sister was a nice person, so one day he would pick peaches When I was a younger sister, I saw my elder sister sitting in front of the door combing sister Tao's hair, so I suddenly had this idea."

After Li Qingshan finished speaking, he slapped his thigh angrily, "No wonder!"

At some point, Zhu Xing I often put Sister Tao in their shop to play with Sister Qiao under the pretext of going to the county to do business, which was the original idea.

This scheming swineherd!

Originally, Liu Yu thought that Zhu Xingyou just wanted to find a kind stepmother for his girl, and she was still secretly unhappy about this matter. But now listening to what Li Qingshan said, combined with what he heard about Zhu Xing from Li Qingshan before, I feel that he also has some affection for the eldest sister.

But Liu Yu still said: "I don't think it is very likely that the elder sister will agree."

First, as this year, from the fifteenth to March of the first lunar month, Li Suzhi can dig wild vegetables to earn money; Working in the village, there are 700 cash a month; before and after Frost's Descent, I can cut slivers and sell them, and in the rest of the time, I can weave at home, and I can exchange them for money.

Secondly, after the marriage with Wang Youcai, Li Suzhi was afraid that her heart would die, she just wanted to raise her sister Qiao well, and she was not willing to think about her own affairs at all.

"That's right." Li Qingshan nodded and agreed with what Liu Yu said, but Zhu Xing knew this person, he was indeed a person worthy of entrusting his life, Li Qingshan said: "You should talk to Eldest Sister another day, let her do it by herself Make up your mind."

Liu Yu nodded, moved her left foot to signal Li Qingshan to pinch that foot.

"Huh!" Li Qingshan said "dissatisfied", but actually changed his seat to the other side with a gentle face, and saddled him.
