Chapter 297: Stealing Half a Day's Leisure

Hearing the more the samurai said such a Zen words, the first picture is the admiration of the heart, if he is to do something to be stopped, he will be so angry that he will blush and have a thick neck to reason with others, but the more the samurai is different, he can listen to the persuasion of others, and he can be regarded as a child who can be taught.

Xiantu applauded and exclaimed: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it, I didn't expect that Brother Wu would have such a profound realm, it seems that I will let my sister enlighten more in the future, so that the day of Brother Wu's Buddhahood will not be far away." ”

Hearing Xiantu say this, everyone laughed, but the stupid rabbit was still stupidly gnawing on the wild grass, and I really didn't know what kind of taste it could chew.

The group walked back with a smile and a smile, and the rows of footprints on the road were deeply sunk in the snow, leaving people with endless imagination.

Halfway through noon, Wang Maosheng yawned, rubbed his confused eyes, shook his neck with a bit of a stiff neck and stood up, stretched his waist, only to find that Rengui was still sleeping so sweetly, and most of the fire in the stove had been extinguished, but even so, this closed hut was still so warm as spring.

Maybe Rengui hasn't slept so comfortably for some days, this sleep he is like a long sleep, Maosheng looked at Rengui who was immersed in a sweet dream, shook his head and smiled, he didn't bear to wake Rengui, just tiptoed to the fire, with the remaining sparks, put some flammable hay, and after a while, he heard the inside 'snort' burning, taking advantage of the strong fire, quickly added some wooden pieces into it, and the room soon became warmer.

Seeing that it was not early, Mao Sheng wondered why this woman hadn't come back to prepare lunch. Didn't you see another family that slaughtered pigs and sheep, waiting to get some cheap blood tribute back, and thought of this. Mao Sheng smiled and shook his head, for marrying such a good daughter-in-law who can live, Mao Sheng is content from the bottom of his heart.

Speaking of which, let's take a look at the blood tribute, the so-called blood tribute is made of pig blood, sheep blood, chicken blood, and duck blood, which generally refers to pig blood, in ancient times. Whenever it is time for the Chinese New Year, it is indispensable for every household to kill pigs and sheep.

Usually, those who feed livestock at home come to kill them during the Chinese New Year. They would invite three or five relatives and friends, beat gongs and drums to tie the pig's four legs, and then put it on the cauldron that had been prepared, and the first step in killing the pig was to kill it. At this time, a big man or the kind of person who stares at him with horizontal eyebrows will come out. Raise the knife and give the pig a moment without even blinking an eye.

At this time, there will be a piercing scream that cuts your eardrums, and the timid may be directly frightened into a coma by this terrible sound, while the bold ones will quietly look at the dying and struggling fat pig, and let out a cheer from time to time.

But at this time, the screaming and struggling have long been meaningless, no matter how the tied fat pig tosses, it can't stop the speed of blood flowing out of the body, and after a while you will see blood 'ticking' out of the pig's neck. The blood that just came out was black and purple, and that could not be kept. I had to wait for the color of the blood to gradually turn dark red, and then put the pots and pots that had been prepared under the fat pig, and then began to collect the blood tribute.

Of course, it is also wrong to collect it in this way, only to see that every extra liter of pig blood will be sprinkled with a handful of coarse salt, this cold day provides the advantage of quick freezing, and after a while you will see jelly-like blood collected in the bucket, which is hot and soft to the touch.

This outflow of blood tribute is also called blood Wang, people have long understood that blood can greatly replenish the body, even if it is pig blood, it is also the best tonic, for those poor people who can't even eat pork and pig water, whenever there is the sound of gongs and drums, they will hold a basket or carry a basket, waiting early next to the cauldron, for fear that it will be too late to be robbed of others, in this era when the material is not abundant, people have long understood what is called the first strike is strong.

The afternoon sun is always so pleasant, Mao Sheng pushed open the door of the house, walked out with a small bench made of wood, pushed open the door, took a breath of fresh air, and suddenly felt very refreshed.

But in such a beautiful and comfortable time, there are always some unhappy things happening, it is just after noon, and the stomach is rumbling loudly, and the noisy Maosheng is not able to swallow and spit.

I wanted to sit outside the house and drink tea, bask in the sun, enjoy this beautiful and enchanting snow scene, and enjoy the life of stealing half a day's leisure, but at this time, my stomach is so weak, and the gurgling resistance is getting louder and louder, Mao Sheng endured hunger and walked into the house, rummaging around the kitchen for something to eat in his mouth.

But except for the hard nest head, I couldn't find anything to swallow, and I couldn't help but be a little angry, secretly scolding how my mother-in-law was in this family, and I couldn't starve him to death, in fact, I thought about it in my heart, he didn't have the courage to say it.

was complaining, only to hear the door creak and be pushed open, Mao Sheng was overjoyed, thinking that his mother-in-law was back, thinking that hunger was about to be relieved, he opened the curtain and ran out excitedly.

At this time, a tall and burly young man in front of him stood at the door of the house, the warm sunlight shone on the young man's body, looking at the long back, Mao Sheng said, "Brother, you are awake." ”

Rengui turned around, stretched his waist, and replied with a smile: "Well, wake up big brother, these days have been bumpy and wandering, and I haven't slept so comfortably for a long time. ”

Mao Sheng walked out with the wooden bench in his hand, put it outside the door and let Rengui sit down, basking in the warm sun, if you say enjoyment, the cool breeze in summer and the warm sun in winter are as intoxicating.

The two just sat together and talked about each other, from the country's macro politics to the people living and working in peace and contentment, as long as there is, they are all talked about more or less, which makes people sound interesting.

"Big brother, I heard that the emperor has been recruiting new recruits recently, haven't you ever thought about going to the battlefield to show your ambitions?"

"Brother Xue, the eldest brother is so old, what ambition is there, the eldest brother just wants to sell tofu and live a lifetime with your sister-in-law, this is a pleasure that many people can't ask for."

"Maybe the eldest brother is really old, and my brother and I have empty skills, if I don't join the army to serve the country, I really feel that my life will be wasted, and my life will become boring."

Hearing Rengui's words, Mao Sheng thought to himself: "If it's really as the lady said, this Xue brother is really not a thing in the pool, and it is a matter of time before he soars." (To be continued......)
