Chapter 23: I want to eat it
After the joint efforts of the family, the Su family's sheepfold was built the next day. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Su Lihua and Su Xinghua ran in and out for a while as if they were celebrating the New Year, and fell on the haystack, saying that their sisters would sleep in a new house here tonight.
Looking at the jubilant little sisters, Su Fang held her forehead and couldn't cry or laugh.
What a fool for two silly girls, although the mud brick wall is much better than their mud house, and the thatched hut is no worse than theirs. But a sheepfold is a sheepfold!
In the end, Su Changning said that there were many mosquitoes in the back, and it was still cold at night, and it was not as dark as before, which made the little sister dispel the idea of sleeping in the sheepfold.
After all, the only way to the back door is through the kitchen, and everyone is asleep in the middle of the night, and it is not clear if there is any movement in the kitchen, let alone they are in the back?
Of course, it was Su Changning who described this sense of crisis that succeeded in scaring the sisters. Still, the sisters played games in the sheepfold until it was dark for dinner.
The family waited in joy, because although the newly built sheepfold was not a closed house, and the environment was spacious and well-ventilated, the new bricks still had to be dried when they were wet.
Three days later, when Su Fang felt that his body was almost able to walk freely, he finally waited for the four sheep that Lin Tianming bought for them.
The four sheep came over in the morning, swaggering all the way through the village, which also attracted the attention of many people, some people came up curiously to ask, and some people laughed and just said that Lin Tianming's son-in-law should be sincere.
Lin Tianming didn't care, just smiled and replied casually, and went all the way to the Su family.
Su Lin had already gotten the news that he would buy sheep today, and he took Su Lihua to cut a lot of new grass when he went down the hillside to cut pigweed early in the morning, but he dried the dew in the yard first, and could not feed the sheep directly.
The little sister waited at the gate of the courtyard after breakfast, and when she saw that her future brother-in-law was really driving the sheep over, she immediately cried out in surprise, but she didn't dare to approach, so she followed from a distance, smiling brightly.
Su Changning also couldn't help but go to the gate of the courtyard with a burning stick, and looked at the four sheep with bright eyes, as if he had seen a few, a dozen, and dozens of lambs crowded into the sheepfold.
Su Fang and the eldest brother quickly cleaned up the things in the kitchen, and then rushed out to see that Lin Tianming had already driven the four sheep into the yard, answering all kinds of curious questions from the younger siblings.
"Brother Tianming, it's hard work! Is it better for this sheep to rush to the back, or is it better to pick up one person and walk faster?" Su Fang saw the four sheep bleating and immediately proposed.
When the four sheep arrived in the new yard, they probably didn't find the familiar sheepfold, so they scattered a little, and the big ewe even turned around and wanted to go out, but was stopped by Lin Tianming with a sheep whip.
The younger siblings also hurriedly blocked the way, their expressions a little nervous.
"Hug it, they're not familiar with it just after changing places, I'm afraid they don't want to go well, don't break the things in the kitchen." Lin Tianming immediately agreed, and handed over the sheep whip to Su Changning to hold and teach him the trick of using the sheep whip.
Su Changning listened carefully, took the sheep whip and gently flicked it in the air a few times, blocking the sheep's way. Su Fang immediately ran over happily and reached out to catch a lamb in his hand.
Lin Tianming was about to catch the sheep, and when he saw that Fang Ya had caught it herself and her hands and feet were so neat, he couldn't help but be stunned, but when he saw her walking quickly towards the kitchen, he hooked his lower lip and stopped wasting time.
"Chang'an, you also catch a small one, don't let it kick you. Lin Tianming hugged the big ram up, and when he saw Su Changan also coming over, he immediately reminded him.
Su Changan was indeed a little worried and didn't know what to do, but after listening to the reminder, he immediately learned from his brother-in-law, picked up the other lamb, and walked to the kitchen with a smile on his face.
He was not afraid of being kicked by the sheep, but afraid of hurting the sheep if he didn't handle it properly, which was a small life of a few taels of silver.
Su Zhengqing and Su Lin were finishing the sheepfold, and when they saw that the children had already brought the sheep, they were also very happy, and opened all the gates of the sheepfold and waited.
It didn't take long for the four sheep to enter the new sheepfold, Su Lin and his little sisters hurriedly fed them grass to eat, and Su Changan went to fetch water and poured it into a cleaned stone trough.
Su Zhengqing closed the gate again, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the four sheep grazing in the sheepfold, his expression was mixed for a while.
Su Lin never thought that one day the family would raise so many sheep, which was ten taels of silver, and she was so excited that she almost wiped her tears.
Su Fang stood beside Lin Tianming, tilted his head to look at him, and saw him looking back, so he smiled and suddenly blinked.
"......" Lin Tianming's expression was stunned, and then he looked away, turned his head and went to talk to Su Changan, who was leaning against the gate on the other side.
This girl actually teased him in front of her parents and siblings, it's really ...... Let his heart skip a beat!
Su Fang looked at Lin Tianming's embarrassed expression and couldn't help but purse her lips and smile. This man dared to tease her behind everyone's back, and he was honest in front of everyone, it was really ...... Will load!
Behind the sanctimony is inseparable from the nature of animals.
She also withdrew her gaze to the sheepfold. These sheep were obviously picked by Lin Tianming, they have a good physique, and the relationship between the big ewe and the big ram is quite good.
Merely...... The image of the whole lamb roasting came to her mind, and the smell of lamb skewers seemed to be on the tip of her nose......
Ah, I want to eat it!
In the past few days, she has been living in a poor family. I still ate a large piece of braised pork with a lot of winter melon slices in that meal last time.
Although there are also fried side dishes in oil these days, in the end it is just the oil for brushing the pot, and there is no oil and water at all, so it is no wonder that the younger brothers and sisters are wilting like bean sprouts, and the nutrition has not kept up.
Seeing the fat sheep walking slowly in the sheepfold, as if he was getting familiar with the new environment, Su Fang couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Lin Tianming couldn't help but be stunned when he caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eyes, and suddenly thought of a reason, and his heart couldn't help but soften. The corners of his lips hooked a chuckle but it was covered by his beard, and others could only see a faint smile in his eyes.
This morning, Lin Tianming has been talking about the trick of how to raise sheep, and the family has listened very carefully, and Su Changning is even more full of admiration: "Brother Tianming, you are so amazing!"
"Hehe, I often walk in the mountains, in order to hunt more wild animals back, I have also explored their habits, sometimes bring live animals back and raise them at home for a few days, and I will know some after a long time. ”
Lin Tianming patiently explained. He only has a quiet mother at home, and he has little contact with his uncle's family, let alone any experience in dealing with children.
But since he came into contact with the Su family, he has had a new experience.
"Hey, what about the people? Zhengqing! Zhengqing's family! Chang'an! Hey, where is the sheepfold? Are you going to raise sheep like Li Si's family?" Suddenly, a warm shout came all the way from the back door of the kitchen.
