It's almost the New Year, and the pigs should be sold, this sale is another income, and the money owed to the Feng family can also be repaid.

During the period when Youyi was injured, neither he nor Xin'er went out to do anything, and it happened that there was nothing to do at this time, otherwise neither of them would be idle people, how could they stay.

The ointment Feng Yuan brought was really good, and after applying it for three or four days, the bruises on Youyi's back began to disappear, and any movements were not so painful.

After six or seven days, it was almost all gone, leaving no trace.

As soon as they got better, the brother and sister began to move things home again, and the most common thing was firewood.

I don't know what's going on, this year's weather is much colder than last year, as soon as winter comes, the weather drops down all of a sudden, unlike previous years, which have to wait until November or even after the winter solstice to start cooling and getting colder.

Therefore, they also put on padded jackets early, and at the same time, they also found a big problem, their padded clothes were already small, and the padded clothes and pants that could have been worn to the wrists and ankles had already grown a long section on them.

Speaking of which, their cotton clothes were made many years ago, and it has been about four or five or five years now.

In the past, the Wang family made them spring clothes, summer clothes, and even winter clothes specially made a little longer, and they have all been released in the past few years.

Moreover, in the past two years, Youyi and Xin'er are in the growth period, growing fast, and the clothes are even shorter, and this year's cotton clothes are already as long as a card when they are turned out and worn.

You want to say that she can still do it by herself, but she really can't make clothes, she hasn't learned it yet.

Therefore, when she saw that the clothes of the brother and sister were short, Xin'er had no other way but to find a piece of cloth to connect it at the hem of his trousers and sleeves.

Although this is not of much use, as long as you don't look carefully, you can't see that the clothes are short, and it can also be used to shelter from the wind.

However, Xin'er is also thinking about learning to make clothes, you can't do it for every piece of clothing, they always need to make new clothes, the clothes at home are already very worn, and they will break after a long time, and it is imperative to make clothes.

However, this is all for later, now that the siblings are committed to carrying firewood to the house, this year they are not going to make clothes, so they can only rely on firewood for warmth, so they need to prepare firewood.

After the winter solstice, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the two of them are not running up the mountain, except for the one or two hours at noon, the sun is a little useful, and the rest of the time is almost cold and they can't go out.

Not only them, but even the people in the village are the same, it is cold, and there are almost no people who come out to set up the dragon gate array.

There are no more vegetables in the field at home, and they are almost harvested, and there are still two turnips left in the field.

By the way, there are also two pieces of cold beans and broad bean hearts that they bought from the county seat before, and a large number of bean seedlings have grown up these days, and the brother and sister can't help but sigh when they see it, it is really a cold bean, and it can grow so well on such a cold day.

Cold beans and broad beans are planted for the first time, and they don't know how to plant them, so they are planted in the same way as corn, but the interval is closer than that of corn.

Now it seems that the cold beans can be planted more densely, and the spacing of the broad beans is just right, and the two of them can be regarded as having experience.

There is still more than half a month to go before the Chinese New Year, and the pigs of Xin'er's family were also sold to the pig killer, a total of one and a half pigs were sold, and the remaining half were ready to be kept for themselves.

Originally, they wanted to sell the two pigs, and when the time came, they would use the money from the sale plus the money from selling the pigs last year to return to the Feng family.

It's just that they didn't expect that they would go to sell vegetables to earn some money before, and then they accidentally picked up a Ganoderma lucidum and sold it for two taels of silver, plus the two taels put down last year, which is almost enough to repay the Feng family's money.

And their life in the past two years has not been easy, when the two of them are growing up, their nutrition can't keep up, neither of them is very long, for example, Youyi, he is already fourteen years old, but he is not much taller than the eleven-year-old Feng Yu'an, and even thinner than Feng Yu'an.

Xin'er feels sorry for him, and Youyi also feels sorry for his sister, calculate, the money from selling a pig is enough to pay off the money owed, and it doesn't matter if he keeps half of his head, it's a big deal that he will work harder in the future.

In this way, both of them thought of one place in their hearts, and one of them proposed that it was decided so naturally.

This year's pigs are not as good as last year's, but they are still sold for some money, and a half pig was sold for nearly three taels of silver.

After selling the pig and getting money, the brother and sister immediately decided to pay back the money owed to the Feng family.

So, the day after buying the pig, the brother and sister came to Feng's house with meat and money.

"Uncle and aunt, this is the money you lent us when my mother died, and I will return it to you now."

This is a great matter, and it is dealt with righteously.

Youyi got up and took out the money from his arms, carefully placed it on the table in front of Master Feng, and said solemnly.

Master Feng was not particularly surprised by this matter, the two families were neighbors, and he basically knew everything about the Ding family, including income, plus the two brothers and sisters also saved their lives, and he was really not surprised to be able to repay the money in two years.

"I know I'm not wrong, both of you are good, but I also told you, you don't have to be in such a hurry to pay back the money, it's about to be the New Year, you can keep it first, and have a good year, you have suffered a lot in the past two years."

What Master Feng said was sincere, and he also really thought about his brother and sister.

It's just that since the brother and sister have already decided, they won't regret it.

"Uncle, we still have some money at home, it's okay to have a good year this year, and now that we have paid back the money, we can have a happier New Year, I think my uncle can understand."

Of course, Master Feng understands that he is debt-free and light.

"Since you've all decided, I'll take it."

……

Coming out of the Feng family, the brother and sister both felt that their backs were a lot straighter, and the whole person was a lot easier, and both of them thought in their hearts: Debt-free and light, the ancients really said it right.

Although the Feng family had not urged them to repay the money before, and even said that they could pay it back whenever they wanted, they almost didn't explicitly say that they could not do without them, but they still kept feeling that something was pressing them and making them breathless.

Now that the debt has been repaid, there is nothing to hold them down, how can it not make the two of them feel relaxed.

"Brother, let's go back, we can have a good year this year."

"Well, let's go, go home."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked forward in unison.
