Yun Jingning has been gone for three days, and Lin Yanniang's house has been burning the kang day and night, so that the house is always warm.

Yun Jingning left quietly early in the morning, and the task of explaining to the family was lost to Lin Yanniang.

Lin Yanniang didn't buy a leg of lamb again, so she said it was snowing, and he went to the town to see if the eldest brother had returned to the customs.

mentioned the eldest brother of the Yun family, and no one thought much about it, when the winter solstice was approaching, it was time to prepare New Year's meat.

The Lin family has always fed pigs, if it was in previous years, they would definitely be reluctant to kill the pigs directly, at most they would share a pig with other people's families, but now they plan to kill both pigs, and eat the meat fresh and smoke the bacon at the same time.

It just so happened that it was cold to look for pigweed outside, so I waited for the next year to feed it.

Lin Yanniang gave birth to a child in February and March after the year, and then she would have to leave the pork of the full moon wine, and then she would enter the customs and go to the capital, so it was naturally difficult to feed it at home.

As the family sat around the kitchen eating, they were discussing these things.

Lin Can and Lin Jie knew that they would follow their sister and brother-in-law to the capital next year to see the world, and the number of archery exercises had decreased recently, and the number of practice endorsements had increased.

At night, the two brothers sat on the kang and shared a kang table to write the memorized books directly.

Although they have never gone to school, under the guidance of their sister, they have long been able to memorize the "Three Character Classic" and "Hundred Family Names", and have recently memorized all the "Thousand Character Texts".

The boxing techniques taught by their brother-in-law are also very practical, and they feel that their sensitivity to the enemy's demolition moves has also improved recently, and they are more comfortable in fighting.

On the day of the winter solstice, the north wind rose again, but fortunately there was no more snow in the end.

The north wind blew the snow like flying flowers swirling on the flat ground, and then blew a curtain of snow and rain in mid-air.

It's just that this scenery is mostly in the mountains and countryside, under the eaves of the roof.

Winter solstice to kill the New Year pig, on this day many people in the village are lively to kill the New Year pig, some people also set off firecrackers to show good luck.

Everyone in the village knows that Lin Ping'an's family is going to kill two pigs this year, which is a pig that has been fed for more than three months, and one is more than 300 catties.

As a result, there are people who do not kill New Year's pigs, and they agreed early to go to their house to divide the New Year's pork.

Originally, Lin Ping'an planned to keep more meat for his own family to eat and smoke, and he could have a rich year this year, but he didn't expect that there were so many people who came to the house to set pork for the New Year......

In the end, he was only willing to give up half of the pig, including two pig's feet at the front and back, a pig's head, and a pair of pig's ears, and divided it among three families.

Early in the morning, the courtyard of the Lin family was busy, and there were still a few hunters who came to help, and when they saw that Yun San hadn't returned yet, they all looked at Lin Yanniang in surprise.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't go out this month?"

"I'm going to find his big brother." Lin Yanniang explained in one sentence.

Killing the pig will find a tooth sacrifice.

The Lin family doesn't have much land to grow vegetables, so when people nearby come to eat, they will take the initiative to bring some Chinese cabbage, white radish or something.

The Lin family has dried bamboo shoots and bean sprouts, and after killing the pig, they added a big iron pot to the yard, burned a blazing fire, put a pig's head and half a pot of pig blood, and kept the pig's water and put it away.

I cut a large piece of meat and made half a pot of braised pork, put dried chili, sweet potato flour, and Chinese cabbage in it, and then fried a pot of tofu and fried two large bowls of capers and meat foam.

So he set up a table in the courtyard, and the dishes were placed on the table, and no one sat at the table, so they stood in the courtyard with a bowl and ate lively.

Today, the New Year's pig is killed in the second room, and the New Year's pig is also killed in the big house, so the old man and they didn't come over, and there are several other families who are also killing New Year's pigs.

There are still a few families in the neighborhood who come to Lin's house, and they have a lively meal.

When I first started eating, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the children immediately ran to the gate of the courtyard to take a look, and shouted that Yunsan was back!

Lin Yanniang was helping in the kitchen, and hurriedly walked out when she heard the shout.

Yun Jingning saw that the courtyard door over there was not open, and when he heard the lively sound, he knew that it was all on the Lin family's side, so he ran directly outside the Lin family's door before dismounting.

Seeing that the yard had already started to eat, I couldn't help laughing: "I'm rushing back!" ”

The two brothers immediately ran over to help him lead the horse, and this time seeing that there was no basket, they led the horse directly back to the stable.

A group of village children followed, all wanting to get on horseback and sit down.

It's a pity that the brother-in-law is not there, Lin Can and Lin Jie didn't dare to let others ride horses, so they hurriedly sent the horses to the stables and drove the children in the village away.

Yun Jingning came back in a hurry this time, and he didn't have time to buy anything in the town.

But today is Lin Xue's fifth birthday, he thought about it, and gave the little girl five cents to save for food in the future.

Lin Xue saw that her brother-in-law remembered that she had returned the money to buy snacks on her birthday, so she happily accepted it.

Lin Xue is wearing a knee-length new cotton robe made by her sister today, new cotton shoes made by her mother, and a hairband made of red embroidery thread on her head.

Her hair is much thicker and longer, but Lin Yanniang still tied two twisted braids for her.

It was tied with four braids, twisted all the way down from both sides, revealing a cute little face that was much rudder and white.

Yun Jingning and Lin Yanniang talked for a while, and then went to drink with everyone.

Although he has lived in Beiguan for many years, he has no experience of killing New Year's pigs, but he has a lot of experience in eating a big pot of meat, eating meat, and drinking wine around the fire.

It's just that where can the people in the village compare to the heroism in the army?

The people in the village saw him coming and going these days, and although he was busy, he still remembered to come back to accompany Lin Yanniang, and they were not surprised for a long time.

There will be no one who will talk about it because he is not at home for a few days, worrying about Lin Yanniang, who is already wealthy.

After the meal, the villagers took their leave.

Lin Erniu and Lin Yueshi took the initiative to stay and help clean up, and helped Lin Ping'an divide the meat into small pieces, and then marinate it in a large clay jar, buckle the cylinder head and press a stone on it.

Lin Ping'an cut a piece of pig intestines, took a pair of pig lungs and filled a bowl of pig blood, and took it home for Lin Erniu, and a child ate urine bubbles that did not wet the bed, and also gave it to him.

With the help of Lin Erniu and Lin Yue's family, Yun Jingning, who had never experienced it, didn't know how to marinate bacon at all, so after helping to carry the meat to the kitchen, he asked Lin Ping'an to rush back to rest.

Lin Yanniang was also driven back by her mother to rest, afraid that she would be tired.

Carrying a pot of hot tea back to the house, Lin Yanniang casually asked him, why did he go for three days, how did things go?

knew that Beimo gave up the princess and relatives, and did not take back Yangcheng, but added an item: ten years of tribute.

Although she didn't know what the content of the tribute was, Lin Yanniang was already surprised.

She already knew that this battle was Dongli's first strike, but the war was deliberately provoked by Bei Mo, and Bei Mo prepared for war silently, and they found out.

Who would have thought that they had spies who smelled the killing machine in the Northern Desert, and that he was a dignified general of the Northern Expeditionary Army would sneak into the Northern Desert City alone and personally inquire about the news?

There were many things later, and his identity was revealed to his daughter-in-law, and he also told her a lot of things and solved her confusion.
