Chapter 84: Preparing for the Year
With the severe winter of men, women are no longer afraid of the roof being trampled by the snow, as long as the sky is clear, the men will shovel the snow and expose the hut, so that the house will not collapse in the snow.
In the winter of the first year of Taixing, the local chronicles of Linchun County recorded that only a dozen people died in the whole winter, while in previous years, there were more than 1,000 or less than a few hundred, setting a record low.
Ji Rongjin didn't know these data, she didn't know the practical effect of her 'fueling the fire', which not only protected the loss of population, but even gave birth to thousands of people in one winter, laying a solid foundation for the future development of Yidong.
After returning from Beishan, Yan Tao was as busy as before, even if they lived under the same roof and the room was close to the room, the two of them rarely saw each other.
Yan Tao's work and rest are very regular, he gets up early every day to exercise, then eats breakfast, then starts official business, and then eats lunch, there seems to be a lunch break after lunch, but he sometimes goes back to the room and sometimes doesn't go back, Ji Rongjin who doesn't come out of the room is not very clear.
In the afternoon, I still have office work, and there is a period of time before dinner in the evening, listening to Kang Tai say that reading and practicing calligraphy, after Yidong enters October, it will be dark at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, so Yan Tao's afternoon office time will not be long.
As long as Yan Tao doesn't take the initiative to find Ji Rongjin, Ji Rongjin is like a little squirrel with winter eyes, nesting in a small room to eat, drink, read, do yoga, and even eat with Cuifen, cream and mask, anyway, after sleeping until she wakes up naturally, she will find something to kill the day, until it is dark at three or four o'clock and then sleep in the quilt.
From three or four o'clock in the afternoon to eight or nine o'clock the next morning, sleep for up to fourteen to sixteen hours, and the baby has a fight, the strange thing is that she can actually sleep, not only that, except for being awakened by urine, there is no sleep, even if you sleep for so much time, you don't have a sore waist and legs, it's just a god.
Seeing that the Chinese New Year was coming, Ji Rongjin began to get busy, but in fact, she was not busy, mainly because she commanded Cui Fen and Mai Xiaoji and others to buy pigs to kill and prepare for the New Year.
Stained with Yan Tao's light, the food is sufficient, there are no potatoes, sweet potatoes and other alien species, so I have to use mung beans as vermicelli, and prepare the most classic Northeast dish - Chinese cabbage pork vermicelli, and everyone will sit together to have a lively New Year.
In addition to preparing this, how can you miss the blood sausage and red sausage of the Great Northeast, as well as pot-wrapped meat, chicken stewed mushrooms, mutton pot, and spiced sugar smoked rabbit meat
, stewed rabbit meat and radish shredded soup, skin jelly and other dishes, all hurriedly made.
Everyone is in the midst of a busy year.
Because of Yan Tao's identity and status, the location of the busy year did not choose the five-room compound, but chose the two huts where Mr. Situ and Mai Xiaoji lived, and now built a big shed in front of their hut, and all the upper and lower sides were surrounded by grass curtains to block the wind and cold, and dug a stove in the middle of the shed, and directly set up two large iron pots to burn on it.
"Don't worry, every family will bring ingredients over, and they won't eat you in vain." No one in the town froze to death this winter, and everyone's life was better, and he was so happy that he couldn't help but come over to join in the fun.
Of course, eating is one thing, Wu Tingchang mainly wants the whole town to touch the good luck of Xiaofu Niang, and he believes that he will not look at the wrong person.
The people in Dongsheng Town are simple, and the aunts and aunts also helped her a lot when selling fruit wine in the autumn, how could Ji Rongjin refuse, and agreed with a smile, "Okay, listen to the old pavilion chief." ”
She sold the favor of the old pavilion chief, after all, she wants to live, how can she not deal with the people of Dongsheng Town!
Mutual benefit, everyone's good is really good!
