Chapter 40: New Year

When Li Bokang came back, he didn't come back with medicine, he only bought the things they had discussed before. Later, he told her that he went to the hospital to ask the doctor, and the doctor said that he didn't need to take the medicine after eating the medicine he had caught before, as long as he took care of his legs.

In addition to incense and candles, there is also a pound of dim sum bought back this time, and Li Bokang also bought two pounds of melon seeds. I didn't buy anything else, after all, there were meat and vegetables at home, and you could catch them in the river at the fish gate.

As for the melon seeds, she took out a lot of pumpkin seeds from the old pumpkin when she dried the pumpkin before, and later after drying, she asked Li Bokang to fry a lot to eat. But then after eating too many pumpkin seeds, she thought of the sunflower seeds she had eaten before, and at that time she casually mentioned that she wanted to eat sunflower seeds and didn't say that she wanted to buy them specifically, who knew that he would buy two catties back this time. She was quite surprised when she saw it at the time, but later she heard him say that she knew that she wanted to eat it and saw it and bought it by the way, and she was quite moved and warm to see the melon seeds he bought.

This year, on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, the two of them also woke up early on the twenty-ninth day. After breakfast, she sat down on the bed, and Li Bokang went to the river to catch fish. Seeing that Li Bokang went out, he took out the rabbit skin boots that he had made before and sat down, and she was lying on the bed, and she couldn't help but think that the rabbit skin that had been nitrated before was not done, so he took it out and tried to see if he could make shoes. Later, I slowly tried to do it, and found that it was still good to make shoes, so I made a pair according to Li Bokang's feet. By now, more than half of it has been made, and only the last one is still a little bit ready.

She didn't let Li Bokang know about making these shoes, she wanted to surprise him, he was so tired this year. It is said that he still asked him to take the rabbit skin at that time, because she couldn't get it if he didn't let her get out of bed at that time, so he asked him to get it for her. But she didn't tell him what she was going to do with it at the time, she just said that she wanted to see what she could do with it later. But it was good that he was very busy all the time, and he didn't have time to watch her all the time, so she had time to do this, and she had her shoes ready by about noon. Soon after the shoes were ready, he came back from catching a fish, and caught two small fish. When she saw him go home, she immediately put away her shoes, and when she saw that his clothes were a little wet, she asked him to change his clothes first, so as not to catch a cold.

After changing his clothes, he began to pack up the fish he caught, and then began to prepare for tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. But then again, since she was injured and lying in bed, his cooking skills have been in a state of skyrocketing, and he doesn't know what to eat tonight. As soon as he thought of this, he came in and said to her, "Sister, can we eat stewed pig's feet today, and then cook a fish and steam a pumpkin slice?" "Yes, but do you want to kill a chicken to stew, let's eat better this year, we have to have a chicken." She listened to his dish and said.

After listening to her words, he said with some hesitation: "But there are only a few chickens in the house, and they are still laying eggs, and we have enough to eat." "Oh, it's okay, it's okay to eat and raise it, originally I raised chickens for food." Besides, this is the first year you've been here, and it's the first year we've spent together, so let's eat better. Besides, if you can't finish eating, you can eat it tomorrow, and now it's not hot, you can put it, but if you're tired, forget it, we can eat it next time. I just saw that you've lost weight lately, and you want to have a good year together, so I ...... "Okay, I'll kill one after I know for a while." ”

Then he went to prepare, but because he decided to kill the chicken and stew the soup, he changed the stewed pig's feet to fried pork slices, and then boiled water to kill the chicken. There was also a funny thing when he killed chickens, he didn't know how to kill chickens, but he didn't say anything, so he went to catch a chicken and came out. But after the chicken was caught, he had a problem, he had dealt with wild boars before, but they were all dead, and now he didn't know how to kill a live chicken. Later, he finally managed to kill the chicken, and let the chicken run away, bleeding all the way. He was afraid that the chickens would run away and ran all the way after the chickens, so there was a scene: a hen was wounded and ran forward, clucking as she ran, and a boy chased after him with a knife.

Inside, she heard a commotion outside and asked, "Bokang, what's wrong, what's wrong?" Li Bokang hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay to be okay immediately." After that, he caught the chicken, and after catching it, he gave it a knife before the chicken died. After killing the chicken, it is very fast, and it takes not long to deal with it after plucking the feathers and breaking the abdomen, and after it is processed, it is directly cut and stewed.

During the afternoon meal, Li Bokang brought the table to the bedside, and before the meal, she said that he would let him pay homage to his parents. This year, she was injured and couldn't get out of bed, so she could only watch him go outside to burn incense and light candles, and then pray in her heart that she would get better soon, and that life would get better and better after next year. However, she still asked Li Bokang to help her burn more paper money, and also help her worship her parents, of course, and the original owner, since she now uses other people's bodies, she has to do corresponding things, such as worshipping her parents.

After the worship, the two began to eat, and during the meal, they discussed next year's affairs by the way. She has been lying in bed for more than two months now, and she has never gotten out of bed, she feels that she can now try to get out of bed slowly, and she really feels that she is about to get sick when she lies in the house every day. So when she was eating, she discussed with Li Bokang and said that she would get out of bed and move after the New Year, and she only injured one leg, even if the injured leg could not be used, but the other leg was good and did not hinder her from moving. However, Li Bokang didn't agree with what she said, but he didn't directly refuse and said that he would go to the hospital for a while to ask Dr. Shi. Seeing that he didn't agree with her, she was a little frustrated, but today was the New Year, so she didn't show it, and said something else.

The next thing is to explain the plan for the next year, first of all, the land at the door, now she can't work and Li Bokang is the only one, and although he can do farming, he doesn't know much about farming. And she was afraid that she would not be able to keep herself busy, but then she thought that she had been lying down for so long, and that she should be well when it was time to plant, so she decided to plant them all, and still plant them as she did last year. In addition, she wants to buy some fields or land at the bottom of the mountain, even if she doesn't grow them herself, she can rent them out and collect the rent, so that she can also save some money to buy food, after all, there are two of them now. But even now she doesn't have so much money in her hands, although she said that she had saved fifty taels at home before, but she still wants to keep some money for backup, in case something happens in the future, she can also have some money to turnover. And I don't know what the current land price is, and how much land can be bought if all the fifty taels are taken out, these are all questions.

But I still have some rough planning, and the most important thing at the moment is to recuperate from the injury, and then the land at the door, as well as the matter of buying land and sending Li Bokang to study. Of course, the first two things are the most important at present, and the last two things are what we need to work on in the future.
