During this time, Xiao Kun suddenly became very busy. He often got up in the middle of the night, cooked and warmed the food, and did not come back for lunch. He stayed busy until very late after dark.

Sometimes late at night.

Ten days and a half later, I suddenly bought a horse. Now that I have a cart and a horse, it is more convenient to carry things.

Xi Rong has become accustomed to this kind of relationship with him. The house he designed slowly began to be built, and sometimes Xiao Kun even learned how to read from him.

That winter life suddenly got better.

The tasks of the production team are not so heavy in winter, because it is very cold here and it is easy to freeze to death if you stay outside for too long. A fire at home will keep you warmer.

There is no kang in Xi Rong's room. He has a separate room. In Xiao Kun's house, the whole family used to sleep on the same kang. Recently, Xiao Kun has been too busy. He spent a lot of time building the outer wall and building fences for the family's livestock. With little effort, there is no time to make an extra kang. Recently, he has been leaving early and coming back late, and he has very little time at home.

There is half a cellar of Chinese cabbage stored in the cellar at home. The family bought an old hen and two roosters, and also bought two ducks to raise. The old hen can lay at least one egg a day. Xiao Kun also bought half a fan. pork, and hunted a stag in the mountains.

We just returned from hunting the deer that day. When the north wind blew, it suddenly started snowing.

Xi Rong Xiao Kun has recently learned how to take the prey home secretly without letting anyone in the village know about it, lest everyone share some of it.

There are two people in his family now, and they don't even have enough to eat, so they can't share it with their family at all.

Fortunately, the high fence was repaired. He put the deer in the yard and went about doing housework. He peeked out of the small window in the yard and saw Xi Rong writing seriously.

Now that I had some spare money, I was no longer frugal when I bought kerosene lamps. I lit several of them together to avoid Xi Rong's eyesight being damaged.

The manuscript of the building has been finalized, because he wants to learn to write, so Xi Rong teaches him reading and arithmetic when he has nothing to do. Xiao Kun already knows dozens of commonly used characters, and he can add and subtract within a hundred.

Xi Rong also said that he would write some articles and send them to newspapers for submission. Xiao Kun didn't know so many words, but he just thought Xi Rong was awesome.

Now he is still writing seriously, which is much better than doing menial work outside.

The kerosene lamp was warm, and Xi Rong's beautiful face looked particularly gentle under the warm yellow light. Xiao Kun took one look at it and then went to handle the venison with a satisfied smile.

The weather is cold, and the newly hunted deer has already frozen stiff in just a short time. I can eat several meals of fresh deer meat in the past few days, and the rest will be marinated and made into bacon, which can be eaten for a long time.

There are meat, eggs, and vegetables at home. Xiao Kun feels a little relieved. He plans to buy two more sheep to raise next spring.

However, sheep are not allowed to be raised in the village. When the cabins in Daxinganling are built, the sheep will be raised there.

Tonight's dish is deer head and large bone soup, marinated with spices and wine. I dug some wild vegetables and washed two Chinese cabbages for later use, preparing to eat the freshest vegetables for the first meal.
