"After soaking in it for a long time, I always feel that it is not hot enough. I would like to feel more comfortable if it is hotter."

Fu Jingyou shook his head helplessly and told her what happened at He's house just now.

Lu Miao nodded, "It's okay to let everyone decide for themselves."

It is actually safer for the minority to obey the majority.

"It was dark when you opened the door just now. I saw you came back with a basket. What did Auntie give you?"

"Carrots and Chinese cabbage."

"That one is called 'carrot', not a red radish."

Lu Miao promptly corrected Fu Jingyou.

Fu Jingyou nodded, "Okay, carrot."

Lu Miao added: "The frosted carrots are very sweet, and the soup is delicious. I will kill the chicken in a few days and add some when making the soup."

"Kill tomorrow."

"Not tomorrow. If you eat too densely, it won't taste good."

"Then I'll go to the town tomorrow to take a look. All the brigade and production teams are busy killing New Year pigs these days. There should be a lot of meat sold on the black market."

"There's a lot of food at home, but it's not that big of a bite. If you have to go, be sure to pay attention to safety."

After Fu Jingyou washed up and lay down on the bed, Lu Miao squeezed into his arms.

"Now I'm not alone at home waiting for you, there's also a baby."

"Okay, I'll definitely pay attention."

Fu Jingyou's rough hands ran along the hem of her clothes and touched her warm belly, "Did the baby make trouble for you?"

Lu Miao pinched his hand and corrected him sternly:
"Don't say 'baby', you can say child or baby."

Fu Jingyou was confused, "Aren't they all the same?"

"It's the same everywhere, why can't we talk about children and babies? Calling baby is tacky and ugly!"

She always has a lot after all.

Fu Jingyou shook his head and laughed.

Lu Miao felt a slight vibration in his chest and knew he was smiling. She pouted in squeamish annoyance:
"What are you laughing at? What's so funny?"

"No."

Fu Jingyou shook his head.

It always feels a bit strange to call the baby, and it feels like I can't say it out loud.

He simply changed his words and said, "Did the child make trouble for you?"

"She/he is not much bigger than a soybean in the belly now. Why is it causing trouble?"

"That's all."

"Yeah, so do you understand? It's really not easy to give birth to a little life!"

"Now I know, let's see if we can buy malted milk tomorrow. You are already thin, so don't let your children turn around and steal your nutrition..."

The young couple chatted and leaned closely together to fall asleep.

On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month at the end of the year, after the team handed over the task pig, they began to be busy killing the New Year pig.

A temporary stove was built with adobe and yellow mud in the west threshing floor.

I don't know which house's door panel was removed and used as a chopping board for killing pigs and cutting up the pork.

Lu Miao heard the pig's neighing sound at home, which was very scary.

Lu Miao originally wanted to take a look, but Chen Guifen said that the smell of blood was strong and she couldn't smell it when she was pregnant. She said he would take her there after the blood was drained and the meat was divided.

Lu Miao thought about it and thought it was okay, so she nodded and agreed.

About half an hour after the killing, Chen Guifen came over.

Also coming with him was Tian Guihua, the daughter-in-law of the second wife of the He family.

Lu Miao remembered what Fu Jingyou said that their coal was bought through the relationship of Tian Guihua's family. Tian Guihua also has a two-year-old son.

Lu Miao packed up, took the manuscript and put two dollars in his pocket.

Then I fumbled with the gourd and scooped some dried red dates and fruits.

Chen Guifen was busy helping her lock the door, so she took the things outside the door and handed them to Tian Guihua. "Sister-in-law, take it back and give it to the briquettes. If the child eats more nuts, he will be smarter in the future."

"Ah? Ah!"

Tian Guihua was stunned again and again, and it took her a long time to realize that the briquettes Lu Miao was talking about were her son He Minjie.

I really don’t blame Lu Miao for naming people blindly.

In fact, Fu Jingyou didn't tell her the name of Brother He's child when he came back, he just kept mumbling about it one by one.

Most people in the village think that a nickname makes a living, but Lu Miao really thought that the child of Brother He's family was called Qianqiu.

Tian Guihua held the gourd and gourd and followed Chen Guifen to protect Lu Miao as they headed to the west threshing floor.

No wonder Chen Guifen mobilized the troops, the fall last time really frightened her.

The pampered women in the city are definitely different from the women in the countryside who have been working for many years. In addition, Lu Miao is young, so she has to be more nervous and careful about some things.

Tian Guihua followed, either looking at the white and tender hands held in her mother-in-law's hand, or looking up at Lu Miao's rosy face.

It is said that women in the countryside are busy going to the fields all year round and are exposed to the wind and sun, and their faces and arms get dark. It is true.

But there are also areas of my body that I can’t see the light of.

Sometimes when she takes off her clothes and takes a shower, Tian Guihua also feels that her body is white, but looking at it now, her whiteness is completely different from Lu Miao's.

That's really...

The dough is not even as white as it is. It's white, and it's puffy.

To put it a bit exaggeratedly, Tian Guihua has grown so big. It is the first time I know that people can grow like this.

Just like the Guanyin Empress in the temple...

She is exquisite and good-looking, and according to her father-in-law and mother-in-law, she is quite well-educated.

It's really amazing, no wonder Brother Xiaoliu likes it so much.

In ordinary times, who would dare to think of such a person?
If you can take a wife and hold her in your arms, isn't that something you do willingly?

and……

Tian Guihua lowered her head and looked at the gourd and gourd in her hand.

There are so many of them, probably weighing more than a kilogram.

He is so generous!
Appearances and everything else are all fake.

If you are educated and capable, you will still have trouble...

Tian Guihua thought, probably no one would not love such a person.

Thinking about various things, the three of them have arrived at the west threshing floor.

The team kills the New Year pig, and members of the village do not need meat tickets.

If there are surplus work points, they can directly exchange them for work points.

Those who don’t have work points can use money to buy them later after those who have work points finish their work points.

The pig has been bled, its belly has been disemboweled, and the intestines, liver and other items have been divided into pots.

There is no smell of blood in the air, but the smell of pig manure is a bit strong.

Lu Miao felt uncomfortable and covered her nose. Her chest felt tight and she felt like vomiting.

After the team handed over the task pigs, there were still two pigs left.

Now that they are all slaughtered, each pig is divided into two portions, for a total of four fans of pork.

One of them is placed on the door panel, waiting to be cut at any time, and the other three pork fans are randomly stacked on the ground made of straw on one side.

Fu Jingyou is responsible for helping Brother He and Brother He, and is always ready to share the meat.

The takeaways also keep an eye on the ground to grab a few fans of pork to prevent anyone from stealing the meat.

These are all things that have happened before, and we have to guard against them.

He Hongjin held his granddaughter Minmin in one hand and held his grandson Minjie in the other, watching over him.

The team's horse scorekeeper and accountant set up a small table next to the door panel.

On one side was the work-point book, on the other was the team's expense ledger, and in front of him was an abacus with paint peeled off.

He Hongjin's sharp eyes saw Chen Guifen and his two daughters-in-law coming, and he quickly handed Minmin and Minjie to Tian Guihua. (End of chapter)
