A month or two later, the road was finally repaired.

In order to celebrate the completion of the highway, Ji Sanzhuan asked Ji Qianqian early to find a bluestone tablet to make a road sign, which was engraved with the four characters of 'Ansan Highway'.

On the same day, Ji Sanzhuan also asked the skillful women to cut flower balls out of red paper, and then invited the leaders of the commune to participate in the 'ribbon-cutting' ceremony, and the whole day was lively.

Ji Sanzhuo is a little regretful that now because of the "four olds", firecrackers cannot be set off, otherwise it will definitely be more lively if you get a firecracker and put it on.

......

After the road was repaired, the members were in a hurry to send the pigs to the food purchase station, and now it is the wax moon, and there is no pigweed in the field, and there is nothing for the pigs to eat.

And in the previous days, the pigs have been eating grass, or too thin, in order to be able to sell at a higher price, after the grain distribution, the members have been using sweet potato and potato scraps, as well as rice bran, corn bran to feed the pigs, just to fatten the pigs.

After feeding for a month or two, the pig has grown dozens of catties, and it is estimated that it will not grow much if it is fed again, so it is better to sell it early, so as not to waste food.

In the days since, the brigade has always heard the sound of pigs "whoop~boil~" from morning to night, and the sound is extremely miserable.

The mules of the Ansan Brigade are collective, so if anyone wants to use mules, they have to give the mules forage, in order to save forage, many people are several partners to borrow mules, Ji Sanzhuan also has the same idea, so he asked Ji Mingzhu to partner with his family.

said that it was a partnership, but in fact, Ji Sanzhuan took care of Ji Mingzhu, no, early in the morning, Ji Sanzhuo brought six children and grandchildren to help Ji Mingzhu catch pigs.

Ji Mingzhu and Ji Mingyu had been waiting at the door for a long time, and when they saw Ji Sanzhuo coming, they shouted: "Third grandfather, uncle, second uncle... Brother in the lobby, brother in the second cousin early.

"Morning~"

took a few people to the pigsty, looking at the pigs in the pigsty, several members of the Ji family were surprised.

"Yo, I'm afraid this pig weighs more than 300 pounds, right?" Ji Qianqian asked.

"Uncle, I don't know," Ji Mingzhu shook her head, she really didn't know very well, and thought it was only more than two hundred catties!

"Yuejin, what do you see?" He wasn't sure, so Ji Qianjin asked his second brother Ji Yuejin.

"It should be about the same!" Ji Yuejin is also not sure, who can be sure of this kind of thing.

"It's pretty much the same, there must be," Ji Minjin took the words of the two elder brothers, and he was very sure, he was sharp-eyed.

As for Ji Kuaijin, he is already looking at the pig with bright eyes, such a fat pig must be delicious!

Ji Mingfeng and Ji Mingshui, who are the younger generation, were also staring at the pigs, and when they heard the words of their respective fathers, they really admired Ji Mingzhu.
