A whole sheep's meat, because Qin Yao, a big eater, was there, the family of six didn't have any leftover.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, the red lanterns were hung up, and everyone lay down on the chairs to eat with their round bellies, and watch the New Year's Eve.

In the middle of the night, there were all kinds of snacks for late night snacks, which made it easy to stay up.

In the middle of the night, Sanlang and Siniang couldn't bear it anymore, so they went back to their room to sleep.

Dalang was in the room practicing the moves Qin Yao had just taught. Erlang and Liu Ji each held a book, both looking hard.

Qin Yao looked at herself holding the soybean plate in her hand, eating fried soybeans while relaxing, and thought seriously for three seconds - should I join them.

Three seconds later, forget it, I have been busy all year and finally have some free time, so I decided to mess it up!
At about three o'clock in the morning, Erlang couldn't bear it and evacuated first.

Dalang, Qin Yao, and Liu Ji were left sitting at the table with big eyes wide open.

Liu Ji's eyes were sore from reading, so he stopped and yawned.

But the year that was not kept last year must be kept this year, otherwise it will be unlucky, just like last year, he was simply in trouble.

Liu Ji was rarely superstitious, so he pinched himself to stay awake when he dozed off. Finally, he waited until the light of day appeared on the horizon. He stood up excitedly and said, "I will definitely have good luck this year!"

After encouraging himself, he yawned and looked back, guessing that Qin Yao and Dalang should be in a similar state to himself.

Unexpectedly, at such a young age, Dalang stayed up all night and was still energetic enough to do morning exercises in the backyard.

Qin Yao drank him up and sent him into the house. The young boy then reluctantly went back to the house to sleep.

"I'm going to take a nap." Qin Yao waved her hand, entered her room, and began to fall asleep.

Liu Jizhao couldn't hold it any longer, so he didn't say anything nonsense when he saw this. He closed the doors and windows, buried the charcoal fire with ashes, and checked the bacon smoked on the porch again. After doing this, he immediately rushed into the room and fell asleep.

The whole family slept until noon. When they woke up, the whole village was extremely quiet. They had been so busy all year, and it seemed that they could just have a chance to sleep in. Every household was locked in their own room with cats.

After the first day of the new year, the village became lively again.

Qin Yao's family had no relatives to leave, so they stayed at home, eating and drinking to spend the entire New Year.

With the New Year, the family of six has become visibly rounder.How else can we talk about gaining weight in winter? It would be strange if we can’t gain weight just by eating.

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, the market arrived, and many people in the village agreed to go to the city.

Mrs. Qiu was also in confinement, so Liu Zhong came over to ask Qin Yao the first day if they wanted to go to the city for the market. If so, they wanted to take a ride.

Knowing that Liu Ji could not make the decision, Liu Zhong asked Qin Yao directly.

Qin Yao asked: "How many people are going?"

"Me, sister-in-law, Jinbao Jinhua, and dad, three adults and two kids."

When the child was one month old, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Liu discussed that it was a rare happy event in the family for many years and planned to hold a full moon party. Mr. Liu Zhong and Mr. He went to the city to buy things.

Old man Liu wants to replace his family's farm tools. There are many styles in the county and the prices are cheaper.

As for the two children, they had to take them with them because they were simply making a fuss.

If Qin Yao doesn't go, Liu Zhong and the others will not take care of their two children.

Qin Yao thought for a while and agreed, "It just so happens that we also want to add another pony, so let's go together."

Liu Zhong was overjoyed and immediately went home to prepare.

Qin Yao and Liu Ji saw Liu Zhong off, and when they turned around, they saw Da Lang standing at the door of the hall looking at them eagerly.

The couple looked at each other: How about bringing them both?
Anyway, the carriage can't accommodate so many people, so I brought four children with me. It happened that the children were riding in the carriage and the adults were walking. If we set off early, we would be able to get back before dark in the evening.The couple nodded together in a rare tacit understanding.

When the four elder brothers saw their parents' reactions, they were so happy that they almost roared.

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, before dawn, the two families got up early to prepare.

After a simple breakfast, Qin Yao and Liu Ji lit torches and led the carriage to the old house to pick up people.

The Dalang brother and sister, four in pairs, poked their heads out of the window. Jinhua Jinbao took a look and couldn't wait to climb into the carriage. The six children were noisy. Qin Yao just wanted to bring earplugs.

Fortunately, the driver was Old Man Liu, not her. Otherwise, her head would have exploded if she had listened to them making trouble at such a close distance.

Contrary to Qin Yao, Old Han Liu liked the excitement as he got older. He drove the carriage unskilledly and asked Qin Yao and Liu Ji cheerfully:

"The second brother came back last night and said that you want to see another horse when you go to the city? Don't you have an old horse at home? What else do you need a horse for? It would be great to buy a cow. It can pull a cart and plow the land."

Liu Ji explained: "Dad, isn't it true that Da Lang and Er Lang are going to study with the Ding clan in February? The journey is too far, so I want to buy a pony for them both, so that it will be more convenient for them to go to school."

"What?" The three adults in Laozhai were all surprised.

Liu Ji's short sentence contains a lot of information.

He went to the Ding clan to learn and ride horses for children. Hearing this, Old Han Liu was stunned for a moment. After he came to his senses, he asked excitedly:
"Can the Ding clan recruit Da Lang and Erlang?"

Liu Ji then remembered that he hadn't had time to tell everyone in the old house about the Ding family, so he nodded and said:

"Yes, my wife and I worked hard and finally got the old lady of the Ding family to agree."

He asked a little excitedly: "What kind of effort have you wasted? Teach me a lesson from my elder brother and sister-in-law. Jinbao is already a grown man. Third brother, you, as an uncle, must not forget your nephew!"

Liu Ji immediately stretched out a hand with his fingers spread wide, "Sister-in-law, if you give me this number, I, as an uncle, will spare my old face and help my nephew find a place!"

He was surprised and asked: "Five hundred coins?"

Before Liu Ji could say the petty 50 taels, Qin Yao said seriously: "[-] taels per person."

Liu Ji's pupils trembled, good boy, she really dared to say that!

The He family took a breath of cold air, "50 taels per person?" She pointed to the carriage, "If Dalang and Erlang add up, isn't that 100 taels?"

When they heard the astronomical figure of 100 taels, neither Old Man Liu nor Liu Zhong and his son dared to breathe.

Qin Yao and his wife nodded together, "Yes!"

They didn't lie, the Mountain Deer and the Hare were quite a lot of money, not to mention a recipe for soap.

The Fang Ziding family took it away and had no intention of putting it into production.

Big families always like to hold these prescriptions in their hands, so as to show their precious value.

They made it themselves and used it to do favors, and the benefits they received far exceeded the amount that money could represent.

When Liu Ji thought about it, he suddenly felt that Qin Yao's 100 taels was too little.

However, even after talking too much, He and others could not imagine that these 100 taels were just enough. They were so frightened that He never mentioned asking Qin Yao and his wife to help again.

In fact, if Mr. Ding was at home, Qin Yao would not scare his sister-in-law like this.

But it happened that the old lady from the Ding family disliked her, and she didn't want to go up and ask for trouble.
