After being full of wine and food, the daughters-in-law began to lead the children to set up a table in the glass flower room of the old mansion and rub mahjong. Zhang Lan and a few cousins who were not drunk cleaned up the dinner table. After that, he brought some of the leftover cold dishes and stewed hot dishes, and continued to eat and drink.

has already drunk a round, this time according to their preferences, Zhang Lan poured herself a glass of boiled water.

Zhang Hu drank very violently today, he had drunk nearly one bottle after eight rounds before, and this time he picked up another bottle and was about to pour it for himself, but was stopped by the eldest brother Zhang Jialin on the side.

Zhang Jialin snatched the wine bottle from Zhang Hu's hand and said: "Zhang Hu, you have drunk a lot, come and I will pour it for you, don't drink so violently, the eldest brother will drink with you." ”

Zhang Hu and Zhang Jialin are both people who drink a little wine and put the wine bottle down, Zhang Hu's face was flushed, and he silently watched Zhang Jialin put the two wine glasses together, and put down the wine bottle after pouring half a glass each. Zhang Jialin opened his mouth and said: "All your own brothers, don't drink here, come and guess with the eldest brother." ”

After guessing a few punches, Zhang Hu was completely drunk. Zhang Lan, Zhang Jialin and other cousins lifted Zhang Hu to the sofa in the hall, turned up the temperature of the air conditioner, turned on the TV and let a few children watch TV while watching Zhang Hu, and several people returned to the side to continue eating.

Zhang Lan's fourth cousin, Zhang Zhimin, was away all the year round, and after lifting Zhang Hu to the sofa, he returned to the wine table and said, "Zhang Hu, what's going on?" Who will show the face of the New Year's Day? Isn't the money owed more than half settled? ”

Zhang Lan's second cousin, Zhang Hongwei, said faintly: "Who else can you show it, show it to Zhang Lan." Suspect Zhang Lan of losing face to him. ”

Zhang Lan, who was holding a water cup to drink, accidentally choked on a sip, and said while holding a tissue: "Second brother said this." ”

"Isn't what your second brother said right? I took more than 200,000 yuan and didn't even thank you. I should have given you a toast alone today, but I didn't let out a fart. "It was Zhang Lan's third cousin Zhang Hongjie who spoke, and Zhang Hongwei is a brother.

The eldest brother Zhang Jialin hurriedly raised his wine glass and said, "Don't mention Zhang Hu when he's drunk, come and drink and drink." ”

Zhang Lan took a bite of food and asked Zhang Jialin: "Did the eldest brother make money raising pigs this year?" ”

"It's still making money, and if you don't lose money this year, you're a big winner. Pig farming is too difficult to do now, and it is completely different from the past. In the past, it was so troublesome to raise pigs, but now if you don't pay attention to it, the whole circle is gone. Zhang Jialin sighed and continued:

"By the way, Zhang Lan, when you have time, go and show me my pig farm, I always feel that something is wrong with my pig farm. It's been almost two years since I built the pig barn in the east the year before last, and I haven't earned a penny. Year after year, it's all in vain. ”

"Yes. Anytime. Zhang Lan agreed.

"Then you'll go when it's over, right?" Zhang Jialin proposed.

"Wait for the end of the show, let's go now. It's just the four of us, Hongjie, are you still drinking? The second cousin Zhang Hongwei said.

"I don't drink anymore. Let's go to the pig farm first. The third cousin, Zhang Hongjie, stood up.

Zhangjialin's pig farm is in the southwest corner of the village, about two kilometers away from Zhanglan's old house. The four of them crowded into Zhangjialin's old tricycle and swayed to the pig farm.

After getting off the car and entering the pig farm, Zhang Lan walked around the pig farm, and when he walked to the middle of the newly built pig house and the old pig house outside the pig farm, Zhang Lan asked the eldest brother Zhang Jialin: "Big brother, why does your newly built pig house protrude out of the section, not flush with the original old pig house?" ”

Zhang Jialin laughed twice: "I think about moving the yard back, the space will be large, and it will be difficult to enter the car if it is flat." ”

Zhang Lan gave Zhang Jialin a thumbs up speechless and said, "Big brother, have you ever seen that there is an east house in our village that is a little more than the hall house?" Everyone else is afraid of missing a corner, big brother, you are actively missing a corner. ”

Zhang Hongwei and Zhang Hongjie next to him laughed after looking at it, and Zhang Hongwei said: "I remember that the house in the west was also built outward, and it didn't seem to have any impact at that time." A few years ago, the eldest brother raised pigs and earned a lot of money. ”

"The house on the west side has retreated a lot, and the yard has not yet been built, and the west side is used as a mill and a place to live, so that the west side of the pig house can see more sunlight, so it will be built directly until the pig house is exposed." Zhang Jialin opened his mouth to explain.

Zhang Lan looked at the specific situation of the pig farm with his merit and spiritual eyes and Qimen Dunjia, and said to Zhang Jialin: "Big brother, are you not going well raising pigs after the yard is pulled up." ”

"Yes, exactly. After building the pig house in the east, it is not obvious, that is, not long after the courtyard wall was built, a swine fever directly died in eight circles, and only two circles of pigs died, and that time it was a miserable loss. Does this have any effect on the courtyard wall? Zhang Jialin asked.

Zhang Lan thought for a while and said, "Big brother, you have pulled up the courtyard wall, and the three houses are regarded as a whole. In this way, the lack of corners in the northeast and northwest has a great impact from the perspective of feng shui. However, in practice, the gap in the northeast corner and the northwest corner is not well ventilated after pulling up the courtyard wall, and it gathers into a sanitary dead end, which is easy to form germs, which will lead to an increase in the probability of pigs being infected with diseases. ”

"How can we remedy it?"

"It's best to build it, plant trees, and clean and disinfect it often. This thing doesn't mean that it must be its problem, if you raise pigs one by one and lose money, just change the feng shui, and what do those large farms need technicians to do, just worship a feng shui gentleman. The main thing is that you observe carefully and feed carefully, big brother. It's not easy to raise pigs now, and it's not your family. Zhang Lan opened her mouth to explain.

Zhang Jialin said thoughtfully: "This is also true. Is there anything else going on? ”

"There are so many things. Besides, big brother, you just don't make any money, which is mainly related to the market. I can't raise pigs for a year and earn more than one million years with the previous meeting, and that kind of situation is not encountered once in a century. Zhang Lan said with a smile.

After looking at the pig farm, a few people squeezed into a tricycle and returned to the old house, and a few people also set up a small table in the glass flower room to play poker.

In the second year of junior high school, Zhang Lan drove with gifts to take her mother's relatives, aunts and uncles away, and in the third year of junior high school, she walked through several aunts' houses.

After discussing with the two of Qin Yongjun's family, they still took advantage of the Lantern Festival when the Qin family gathered to go to Kyoto one day in advance, and walked through Qin Yongjun's father and mother's house, and relatives and everything were just waiting for the New Year's greetings on the day of the party.

Qin Yongjun is the first year this year, and it stands to reason that every family has to go in person. But considering that Qin Yongjun is now nearly eight months old, this year's relative Zhang Lan is all leaving by herself, and Qin Yongjun can raise the fetus at home with peace of mind.

As Qin Yongjun's delivery day was getting closer and closer, Zhang Lan's mood became more and more anxious day by day. On the fourth day of junior high school, there was no need to leave relatives, Zhang Lan turned out some things stored at home, and began to study how to use merit to make some clothes and jewelry that she usually used to wear.
