When the father and son were talking, Lin Jiayin happened to walk to the dam.

Along the way, she also listened to some people's discussions, and roughly knew why Zhu Yanping and Liao Juzhi were fighting.

It's just that she doesn't know about killing cows yet.

In this era, killing cattle is a big deal, Lin Jiayin asked: "Dad, did you say that Butcher Zhang killed cattle today?" ”

Jiang Haiyang nodded and said, "If the price is right, it is estimated that it will be killed." ”

Lin Jiayin couldn't help but snort, she also knew that the big buffalo with broken horns had a gentle temperament, and she couldn't bear it when she thought of being killed.

Jiang Xiaobai shook his head, he couldn't care about other people's affairs.

Eventually, the buffalo with the broken horn was killed.

Jiang Shan wanted to see the excitement, but Jiang Xiaobai felt that the scene of killing cattle was too bloody and didn't let her watch it.

Jiang Xiaolei went to see it.

"You don't know, but the big buffalo shed a lot of tears when he was tied to the crooked-necked tree."

"Kneeling on two feet, the wail that came out, I couldn't bear to hear it."

"But Butcher Zhang is ruthless, and as soon as the cattle killing knife goes down from the cow's head, the big buffalo will fall to the ground."

“……”

When he came back, he spoke eloquently and eloquently.

Jiang Shan listened to him talk about the process of killing the cow, and she cried so much that Cilihuala cried.

"Baba, why do adults want to kill the big buffalo?"

"It's so pathetic!"

Jiang Xiaobai is really hard to answer her daughter's question.

Not to mention Xiao Jiangshan, even when he heard the mooing of the big buffalo before he died, he felt uncomfortable.

But this society is like this, human beings are at the top of the food chain, and cattle have no choice.

Farmers raise cattle and feed cattle, no matter how much they care for them, it is all for the cattle to plow the fields. But once the cow loses its value, it can only become a dish on people's tables.

"Dad, when the cow is finished, let's go buy a few catties of beef."

Jiang Xiaolei said excitedly.

In 83, the ploughing ox would not be killed unless it died of old age, or, like this buffalo with broken horns, was injured and could no longer plough the field.

In addition, people in rural areas generally have little opportunity to eat beef.

Jiang Haiyang was also a little moved, for most of the past half a month, after the family finished the work in the field every day, everyone was cutting bamboo sticks, everyone almost had twenty or thirty yuan, and the family of four had a total of more than 100 yuan.

This is not counting Jiang Xiaolei and Jiang Xiaoyu's two children.

The price of different parts of beef ranges from more than 2 to more than 3 pieces.

Weigh a few pounds and still afford it.

"Grandpa, let's not eat the big buffalo, okay?"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Shan had not yet recovered from the grief of the killing of the big buffalo, and said pitifully begging.

"The big buffalo has been killed, why don't you eat meat."

Jiang Xiaolei replied, patted his chest generously and said, "Wait for Ha to buy beef, I'll pay." ”

The price of cutting bamboo skewers was the highest Jiang Xiaobai gave him, and he had almost 100 yuan in his hand.

"Then wait for you, go buy a few catties."

Wang Xiuju always felt that it was not good for children to have too much money in their hands, so she asked Jiang Xiaolei to give her the money several times, but Jiang Xiaolei didn't give it.

At this time, it was rare for Jiang Xiaolei to take the initiative to use his money to buy beef, and Wang Xiuju immediately agreed.

"Hehe, there's beef to eat at night."

Jiang Xiaolei cheered excitedly.

"Bad, eat cow cow!" Jiang Shan turned her head away, ran to Jiang Xiaobai, threw herself into his arms, and said unhappily.

Jiang Xiaolei was a young man, and said proudly: "Shanshan, when you have dinner in the evening, you will know that the beef is delicious." ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

He's only heard that beef is delicious, but he hasn't really eaten it.

Jiang Xiaobai shook his head, comforted his daughter a few words, and asked Jiang Haiyang, "Dad, is Brother Xiaozhou still fishing?" ”

Jiang Haiyang said: "The fifth class buys beef, let your mother burn a wind pot, and you still buy fish to make it." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he changed his words again: "Forget it, it's still up to you to get it." ”

Ever since he ate Jiang Xiaobai's roasted dishes, he felt that his son's cooking was better than that of his mother-in-law.

"What's boring? You can't eat the food I made, huh? ”

Wang Xiuju said dissatisfiedly on the side: "The second child was doing business in the city for a day, and it was so hard, he finally came back to rest, and you still want him to cook." ”

said to Jiang Xiaobai again: "Second child, you don't care about him, you don't like to eat or not." ”

Parents quarreled, but Jiang Xiaobai didn't dare to answer.

However, such a scene made him feel warm.

There are some disputes in the plain, and there is family affection between laughter and scolding.

This is what it feels like to be at home.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled and said, "Mom, it's okay, I'll cook at night." ”

After finishing, he continued to say to Jiang Haiyang: "Dad, I buy fish because a customer needs it, is there any fishing over there Brother Xiaozhou?" ”

Jiang Haiyang said: "He still fights from time to time, I don't know if he has gone down the river for two days?" ”

didn't get any definite news, Jiang Xiaobai said, "Then I'll take a look." ”

After speaking, he shook Jiang Shan in his arms and said, "Shanshan, let's go to the second uncle's house to sell fish, okay?" ”

Jiang Xiaozhou is Jiang Haitian's second son, so Jiang Shan wants to call the second uncle.

In fact, in the countryside, a person may have more than one second uncle.

That's because there are too many peers in a family, so basically no one calls the whole family in rank, but ranks the eldest and youngest in a small family.

"Okay!"

The little one immediately happily agreed.

"Walk ......"

Jiang Xiaobai lifted Jiang Shan above her head, then parted her two calves and let her sit on her neck.

This is also called in the countryside, called beating horses.

Many children like to be carried by adults like this, like riding a horse.

Jiang Shan was also happy, her two little legs swayed, and she shouted happily: "Oh, ride a horse." ”

The daughter's laughter infected Jiang Xiaobai, grabbed her two ankles, turned her body away, and trotted up, making the little guy smile coquettishly.

"Hey, he's a big person, like a small baby."

Jiang Haiyang shook his head and muttered.

Wang Xiuju seemed to be still angry before, and said: "He teased Shanshan, you also said, you just said that you are used to Shi Da." ”

Lin Jiayin watched Jiang Xiaobai make Jiang Shan happy, and her beautiful face couldn't help but show a happy smile.

It's good to be like this Jiang Xiaobai.

She likes this kind of atmosphere, and she likes Jiang Xiaobai like this.

Jiang Ting on the side was also envious when she saw it, and said to Jiang Xiaofeng in a glutinous voice: "Baba, I also want to beat the horse." ”

When Jiang Xiaolei heard this, he immediately said: "Tingting, I'm going to give you a horse." ”

"Nope! I'm going to poop! ”

Jiang Ting didn't agree, "My sister was beaten by him, and I want to beat it too." ”

Jiang Xiaolei was a little disappointed that he was actually disliked.

looked at the back of the second brother who was far away, he didn't want to continue to stay in the field, and with the second brother, maybe he could go to the river to play ha.

With a roll of his eyes, he squatted down and said to Jiang Ting: "Tingting, I am faster than you, come, I will beat you with a horse, and we will catch up with Shanshan." ”

"No, I'm going to poop and beat the horses."

Jiang Ting was young, but her temperament was stubborn, she bypassed Jiang Xiaolei and ran directly in front of Jiang Xiaofeng.

"Okay, let's fight the horses too."

Jiang Xiaofeng couldn't help it, so he had to smile and pick up his daughter and put it around his neck.

Jiang Xiaolei was speechless for a while, waved his hand and said, "I'll go and see if the cow has been killed." ”

As he spoke, he ran away like a gust of wind.
