Happy times always pass quickly. Lin Mo has been staying on the warm kang at home for more than a month without going out. Just as Lin Mo finished her breakfast in the space, lit the coal stove, got into the bed on the warm kang in the living room, and took out the storybook she bought from the scrap station from the space, preparing to lie down again, someone knocked on the gate of her house.

Lin Mo quickly got up from the warm bed, put on his cotton shoes, put on a women's military coat, walked out of the warm house and went to open the gate.

"Hmm! It's so cold!" Maybe it was because Lin Mo stayed in the warm room for too long, as soon as he walked out of the door of the main room, Lin Mo shivered unconsciously.

You know, the winter in Heilongjiang Province is indeed much colder than the Liao Province where she lived in her previous life. Even though it is only January now, Lin Mo feels that the temperature today must be at least 20 degrees below zero.

Pulling his military coat together, Lin Mo walked quickly towards the gate of the yard on the snow. He opened the gate and found that it was his aunt Lin Da Nv standing outside. Lin Mo did not ask Lin Da Nv what the matter was. He directly pulled Lin Da Nv in, closed the gate quickly, and then dragged Lin Da Nv into the living room without saying a word.

As for why Lin Mo didn't say hello to Lin Da Nv and let her go into the living room by herself, Lin Mo said that it was so cold and she didn't want to open her mouth to speak because she was afraid of freezing her teeth!

After entering the reception room, Lin Mo felt the warmth in the room and let out a long sigh. He took off his military coat and hung it on the hook at the door.

Then he turned around and smiled and asked Lin Da Niu to sit on the kang: "Aunt, why are you standing? Come and sit on the kang!"

"Okay!" Lin Da Nv, who was originally a little dazed by Lin Mo's series of actions, saw Lin Mo's smiling face and reacted instantly, and replied to Lin Mo with a smile.

After both of them took off their snowy cotton shoes and sat on the heated kang, Lin Mo asked Lin Da Niu, "Aunt, what are you doing here in this cold weather? Come and drink some malted milk to warm yourself up."

As she said that, Lin Mo handed the malted milk that she had just prepared in the enamel jug to Lin Da Nv. Of course, this malted milk was prepared by Lin Mo for Lin Da Nv on the kang. Lin Mo would prepare an enamel jug of hot water and the matching malted milk on her kang cabinet every day.

Although Lin Mo was quite novel about the malted milk of this era and had drunk it for a few days, she still couldn't get used to the malted milk that became sweeter the more she drank it. However, the malted milk in her home could not be wasted!

That's why she came up with this idea. If someone came to visit her house, she would make malted milk for them to drink. Of course, the only people who could come to her house as guests were Lin Da Niu and Liu Pan'er who came to bring delicious food to Lin Mo, and Wang Bo or Wang Jianshe who came to sweep the snow for Lin Mo.

Basically, no one would come to her house as a guest, at least not during the time when Lin Mo came. Even if someone did, Lin Mo would not treat them with malted milk. Besides Lin Mo, the only ones who had the right to enjoy malted milk were Lin Mo's uncle and his family of five (including the little kid Han Bao).

Lin Danniu's eyes turned red with emotion as she held the malted milk in her hand. She thought to herself that it was right for her to treat Momo like this. Look how filial this child is!

Seeing that Lin Da Niu was staring blankly at the malted milk in her hand, Lin Mo quickly reminded her, "Aunt, drink something hot first to warm yourself up! It's so cold today, don't freeze!"

When Lin Da Nv heard what Lin Mo said, she quickly responded to Lin Mo's words with a smile, "Okay, okay," and was very obedient and drank several sips of the malted milk in her hand

Seeing that Lin Da Niu had finished drinking, Lin Mo asked again, "Aunt, what are you doing here today?"

"Ouch! Look, I almost forgot!" When Lin Da Nv heard Lin Mo ask her, she knocked her head with her hand in a reproachful manner, and then continued:

"Momo, I came here today because I have something good to tell you!"

"What good news? Aunt, please tell me quickly?" Lin Mo looked at Lin Danniu's excited expression, and cooperated with her by putting on a curious look and asking Lin Danniu.

Seeing Lin Mo's curious look, Lin Danniu's little vanity was instantly satisfied. She said to Lin Mo with a smile without keeping him in suspense: "Momo, our village is going to kill pigs and distribute pork this afternoon."

"Oh! Is it time to distribute the pork?" Lin Mo cried out in surprise. Although pork can be refreshed in Lin Mo's space every day and she has no shortage of meat to eat, but Lin Mo has never seen a pig being slaughtered?

Although she studied cooking and had seen other people slaughtering pigs in videos, she had never seen anyone slaughtering pigs in person, especially in this era. Her curiosity instantly filled her whole body.

She immediately asked Lin Danniu excitedly: "Aunt, when are we going to slaughter the pig this afternoon? Can I go and watch them slaughter the pig?"

"We'll kill it after lunch in the afternoon, probably around one o'clock!" Lin Da Nv estimated the time and said to Lin Mo. Lin Mo's eyes were shining. Lin Da Nv touched Lin Mo's head with a loving look on her face and continued.

"As for the pig slaughter, of course you can go and watch! But you have to wear more clothes so you don't get cold, and you have to queue up to share the meat after the pig is slaughtered!"

"Share the meat? I shouldn't get any meat, right?" Lin Mo thought about the fact that his family didn't have a single centimeter of meat this year, and lowered his head helplessly
When the village slaughters pigs and distributes the pork, it is based on how many centimeters each person has earned that year. The more centimeters one earns, the more one gets, and the less centimeters one earns, the less one gets. Families that fail to even meet the basic centimeters required by the village are not eligible to get any pork.

Seeing Lin Mo's depressed look, Lin Da Niu quickly spoke to comfort her: "It's okay, Momo. We have a lot of babies this year, so we can share a lot of meat! I'll give you half of it when the time comes. If it's not enough for you, we can buy some more this year. Your cousin will get a salary this year, so our Momo will definitely not be short of meat."

Listening to Lin Daniu's words of comfort, especially the last few words, Lin Mo's eyes lit up instantly. Yes! If I don't have centimeters, I can buy them!

Thinking of this, Lin Mo's mood instantly improved, and he said to Lin Da Nv: "Okay, let's buy more meat this year."

Lin Da Nv talked to Lin Mo for a while at Lin Mo's house, then got up and said goodbye, saying that she had to help clean up. She asked Lin Mo to lie down for a while before going to her house for dinner, and then they would go to watch the pig slaughtering together after dinner.

Lin Mo thought that there was no place for slaughtering pigs in the village in the original owner's memory, and he really needed to go with Lin Danniu and her family, so he nodded and agreed to go to Lin Danniu for lunch at noon. He told Lin Danniu that he would bring a dish over later and asked her not to cook too many dishes.

Lin Danniu wanted to refuse, but when Lin Mo heard that it was already made in the morning and was now in the pot in the kitchen! If it wasn't eaten today, it would be a waste, so he nodded in agreement.
