Zhien didn't ask her not to agree, but asked her to change her conditions.

Chunyang didn't receive his signal, so Zhien could only say by himself: "Second uncle, the pigs are not easy to feed, my bran, rice bran and other things have been exchanged for food with the people in the village, and if they are all used to feed the pigs, the food will not be enough." Or I'll give two lambs, not pigs. ”

Relatively speaking, it is easier to feed the sheep, feed the grass crops in winter, and feed a little bran and rice bran every once in a while.

In addition to this consideration, Zhi'en wants to raise sheep and also wants goat milk.

He saw a report in the newspaper that an expert who didn't know what said that children can grow up by drinking more milk, and they don't like to get sick.

Milk is not counted on, and there is still a play in goat's milk.

The village chief immediately said that there was no problem, and asked Zhien whether he wanted a ram or a ewe, and Zhien said honestly: "I want a sheep that can produce milk, and the other one can be arbitrary." ”

The village chief misunderstood, thinking that he wanted a ewe that had just given birth to a baby and was giving milk, so he brought a ewe with a lamb over that day, and told Chunyang to prepare well at home, and not to start school and face a group of children blind.

The dust has settled, and Chunyang is still in the clouds, and I feel incredible in the fog.

A few months ago, she was a junior high school student, and now she is a teacher, and she panicked when she thought that the children in the village would call her Teacher Li in the future, and she faintly regretted agreeing to this.

However, the "salary" was sent to her, and it was too late for her to regret it, so she could only prepare hard.

There is still some time before the start of school, and Chunyang doesn't know what he wants to prepare, but when he has nothing to do, he can read the book and feel more steady.

The books that Zhi'en brought back were all she read in a few days, and there was only the last one she couldn't understand at all.

I can't understand it not because of how profound the content of the book is, but because the book is printed with foreign characters, and I can't understand it at all.

Chunyang asked Zhien why he brought a book full of foreign characters, and Zhien replied in annoyance: "I didn't look carefully when I took it, and I took all the books back when I put them together." If you don't understand it, forget it, when the firewood is burned, I'll take a few more books back when I turn around. ”

As a result, before the book could be burned, Chunyang was stunned to find that his grandmother was reading the book, and she was reading it quite seriously.

The time spent together is not short, and Chunyang knows that grandma is literate. To be honest, there are not many literate people at Grandma's age, anyway, Chunyang only knows Grandma. She once quietly asked about Grandma Zhien, but Zhien said that he didn't know, Cao Peiyu didn't let him ask, and Grandma herself never said it.

Now it seems that grandma not only knows the words of her own country, but also knows the words of foreign countries.

Chunyang cautiously reached it, and knocked on the side: "Grandma, what kind of Chinese character is this?

Grandma smiled: "Where do I know, I don't know." ”

Chunyang could see that grandma was lying.

Because she saw that her grandmother's withered hands were trembling, and her grandmother's somewhat cloudy eyes were full of tears...

Everyone has secrets that they don't want others to know, Chunyang has them at a young age, not to mention grandma.

Chunyang didn't ask much about it, and pulled out other topics to chat with her grandmother, and she coaxed her with her heart, and after a while, her grandmother laughed from the bottom of her heart.

The Spring Festival is approaching, no matter how the upcoming year is, the Spring Festival must be well prepared.

In addition to the easy-to-store vegetables such as radish and cabbage at home, there are also dried beans and eggplants dried in summer, which are usually calculated and eaten.

In addition to dried vegetables, there are pickled sauerkraut and various pickles at home, and Cao Peiyu wants to wrap a dumpling with sauerkraut on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the noodles and sauerkraut are available, only a gar of meat.

Meat is not cheap, if you exchange grain, a small piece of meat will have to be exchanged for a large pot of grain, Cao Peiyu is a little reluctant.

Zhien didn't want her to worry, so he patted his chest and said that he would solve the problem of meat.

After putting down the words, he saw that he took Zhili to the back mountain, and he went for a day, and he didn't say what he was doing when he asked him specifically.

On the afternoon of the twenty-ninth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhien and Zhili came back from the back mountain in a hurry, one carrying a chicken in his hand.

This thing is dexterous, it's not easy to catch at all, these days Zhien took Zhili to make a lot of traps to catch two.

Cao Peiyu really doesn't waste a little material, the chicken dumplings that can be shaved off, the internal organs can be fried and eaten, the chicken skeleton can also be boiled in soup, and even the chicken feathers she has saved up to prepare a feather duster.

During the Chinese New Year, the only thing the family bought was red paper.

Cao Peiyu cut the red paper, set up a small kang table in front of her grandmother, spread the cut red paper on it, and her grandmother used a smooth wooden stick to dip the black ash at the bottom of the pot to write couplets.

When grandma wrote the Spring Festival couplets, Chunyang squatted in front of the stove pit to boil the paste, and the Spring Festival couplets were almost boiled after the paste was written, and Zhien and Zhili were responsible for plastering the paste and pasting the Spring Festival couplets.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Cao Peiyu generously lit two candles, put the panel on the kang, and brought the dumpling filling and basin that had been mixed long ago. She didn't squeak either, and Zhien consciously pulled Zhili to wash her hands and prepare to help.

Chunyang naturally couldn't watch it on the side, so he also went to wash his hands and work together.

Zhili was purely a disservice, and when he was not idle, Cao Peiyu pulled off the dough lump the size of his thumb cover and gave him to play with, not letting him touch anything else.

Zhien is responsible for pressing the agent and rolling the dumpling skin, and the family will eat dumplings for the New Year, so Zhi'en is not skilled in rolling the skin, not to mention slowly, the dumpling skin rolled out is strangely shaped, and the place where it should not be thick is thick and not thin is thin.

Chunyang is not much better, the dumplings wrapped are thin and very ugly, Zhien joked to her: "You can eat the dumplings you wrapped, I can pick out all of your dumplings when they are cooked, it's too embarrassing." ”

It doesn't matter if it's bumpy or not, it's just delicious.

The dumplings that worked hard until midnight were all boiled in the pot, and they couldn't stop eating a dumpling without meat for too long, Cao Peiyu and grandma ate a plate of dumplings, and Chunyang and the three of them ate six plates!

Cao Peiyu was afraid that they would eat too much hurtful food, but grandma smiled and said: "Half-grown children have big appetites, let them eat openly, it's okay." ”

The so-called open eating is not about eating as much as you want, after all, there are so many dumplings, and you can only pull them down after eating.

After cleaning up, when he was lying in the quilt and preparing to sleep, Chunyang touched his round belly and still thought, the dumplings are so delicious, if only they could eat them every day in the future.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, we should pay New Year's greetings.

In previous years, the children of the Guo family did not go to anyone to celebrate the New Year, and this year is no exception, and they all stay at home on the first day of the new year.

Chunyang really didn't expect that they wouldn't go out to pay New Year's greetings to others, but someone came to pay New Year's greetings to Grandma and Cao Peiyu, and it was not from Dongshan Village that came.
