When they saw this, they rushed up one after another, and with all their hands and feet, they took the goats and wolves from their shoulders, and put them on the ground to skin and cut the flesh, and dispose of the water.

Zhang Jin said excitedly: "We have never had such a big harvest when we go up the mountain to hunt, this is the credit of the young valley master!" ”

"Don't you know, a few years ago, when the Daoxiang Valley was developed, the young valley master led the young people into the deep forest, killed a big python, captured more than ten pheasants, and boiled a pot of dragon and phoenix soup before starting spring planting!" Ai Qing said.

Now, she took the women in the valley to kill chickens and ducks, wash rice and vegetables, Fang Lei saw it and asked, "Cai Juan!" How old is the child! ”

"Back to the young valley master! The child is one year old! Cai Juan replied.

Fang Lei jokingly said: "Ai Liang, this kid! Didn't bully you, did you? ”

Cai Juan said: "He dares? Not only did I take the women to participate in productive labor, but I also kicked the housekeepers, and if I were missing, he would not be able to drink the northwest wind? ”

"You! Haven't I ever done any work at home? Ai Liang heard it and said unconvinced.

Cai Juan smiled: "Cooking and laundry, feeding pigs and chickens, washing dishes and dishes, have you helped with that?" ”

"Cutting pig feed, washing vegetables and drizzling vegetables, didn't I do it? I have to do everything, the three heads and six arms that came! Ai Liang argued.

Fang Lei said: "When the two of you got married, I was a witness, you kid dared to bully her, I won't let you go!" ”

"As the saying goes! It is difficult for a Qing official to decide family affairs, Shaogu Master, let's go to the office and drink two cups of tea! Ai Liang said.

"Okay! Your old man is drunk, Cai Zhengming and I will help you go back to the room to rest, and I will preside over the spring ploughing work tomorrow morning, so that you can work less! Ai Liang said.

Cai Juan picked up a bowl of wine at this time and said: "Ai Liang, Cai Zhengming, Wu Shuyun, this time we will toast the young valley master with a cup, let's drink water and don't forget to dig wells!" ”

The five of them clinked glasses and drank again until midnight, and then the feast ended. (To be continued.) )
