Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields

Li Jinhu was stunned by the thoughtless words of his elder sister. He just asked if there was any rat poison in the house, so why couldn't he think about it?

It creaked last night, the sound was so loud, there must be mice in the house, especially in the house, and then the wooden floor was laid, so don't let the mice gnaw on it.

"Could it be that Jinzhu was poisoned to death?"

Li Haitang was thinking wildly and was not in the mood.

"Sister, what are you talking about, the rat poison is of course poisoning the rats to death, otherwise it will be dispatched at night and people will not be able to sleep well."

No one in the village is afraid of mice, but I heard that mice are rampant, and some will jump on the bed. There is a one-year-old baby in Lijia Village who was bitten by a mouse on the face.

Li Jinhu touched his face, he was going to be an official in the future, if there were scars on his face, he would have no chance of being an official, and it would be useless to pass the Jinshi examination.

Daqi is a country that pursues beauty. Although you can't rely on your face for food, you are good-looking, and you will be looked up to by others when you go out.

Xiao Taohong is an example, a low-ranking actress who is promoted to the sky, singing is all about it, it mainly depends on her looks.

"?Oh."

Li Haitang stared at Xiao Lingchuan awkwardly. Yesterday he used all eighteen martial arts. It was earth-shattering and must have woken up his younger brother Li Jinhu. The so-called rats that were about to be poisoned to death were him and her.

Tonight, Li Haitang is going to show off his skills and get rid of Xiao Lingchuan, a mouse, and eliminate harm for the people.

…

With the sound of firecrackers, the year is gone, and the spring breeze brings warmth into Tusu.

Thousands of households always exchange new peaches for old talismans.

Li Haitang remembers a poem describing New Year's Eve, but in the border town of Lijia Village, although firecrackers were set off in every household and lanterns and Spring Festival couplets were hung up, they could not feel the warmth of the spring breeze.

The snow that fell in the past two days has not melted, and it is still white everywhere, and the wind is howling. Some people even hang pig heads at the door.

Tonight is the time for family reunion. We need to prepare a large table for New Year’s Eve dinner. There are three people in the family, as long as we are comfortable.

"Sister, good luck, make a fortune in the coming year!"

Li Jinhu got up early in the morning, took out good words without any money, and got big red envelopes from Xiao Lingchuan and Li Haitang.

On New Year's Eve, you must say a lot of good auspicious words, and you can't say words such as "death, kill, ghost", otherwise you will be unlucky for the next year. The ancient superstition of personality, when the elders pick up vegetables, even if they eat enough Instead of saying "no", say "yes". ?? There are many taboos, taboo to make loud noises, so as not to wake up the devil; taboo to look in the mirror, so as not to see the "demon"; Cause disasters to follow one after another; the taboo to break utensils means that there will be "bad luck" this year.

The way to rescue is to wrap it in red paper, say auspicious words such as "every year is safe", and put it on the divine table for several days to resolve the disaster.

Li Haitang found it quite interesting, after all, there are not so many talks on New Year's Eve in modern cities, and the atmosphere of the New Year has also faded a lot.

Fireworks and firecrackers are prohibited in the city, and you can only see fireworks across the sky on New Year's Eve. Sometimes there are fire trucks roaring, and you don't know where the fire is.

In the mountains, firecrackers can't be set off at will. The sky is dry and things are dry to avoid mountain fires. Li Jinhu played with the weak flowers in the yard.

Breakfast is simple boiled noodles, served with a plate of fragrant elbow flowers in sauce, pickled spicy cabbage and Chinese sausage.

"???? How are the sausages made? Is there sugar in them? I think the sweet ones are better than the spicy ones."

Li Jinhu sandwiched a piece of sausage, and was full of praise immediately. Since following his sister, he ate and drank, which he had never eaten before.

The sweet?? mouth is Cantonese-style sausage. The fat-to-thin ratio is seven lean meats and three fat meats. Steam a slice and eat it. There are oily flowers inside. If it is dry, it can be stored for a month or two even in summer. It can be sliced ​​and stir-fried, fried potato chips, fried beans, etc. are all delicious.

Li Haitang also saw that there was too much meat in the house a few days ago, so he thought about making some.

"?? It's still spicy. If you eat something spicy in this cold weather, it will warm your stomach."

Li Haitang has different tastes from her younger brother, she desperately needs spicy food to keep out the cold.

On the morning of the thirtieth year, the sky was dark and there were small snowflakes. After dinner, Xiao Lingchuan caught the dying pheasant he had hunted yesterday, and quickly boiled hot water to scald the chicken feathers.

According to the customs of Daqi, killing is not allowed on the first day of the new year. Although there is frozen meat at home, he wants everyone in the family to eat fresh.

"Sister, today is New Year's Eve, the last day of the year. After today, we will be better next year."

Li Jinhu held a piece of peanut cake in his hand, and said while eating.

This year was the most difficult year for the family. His parents passed away one after another, and his sister was sold to the old man Qin Yuanwai. Li Jinhu suffered through pain and despair. Fortunately, in the end, his sister also found her own home.

"Isn't it? It will be fine."

Li Haitang echoed softly, at least, the present days gave her hope.

After Xiao Lingchuan packed the chicken, he started to clean the frozen fish again. After thawing, marinate it with pepper powder, salt and a small amount of vinegar to remove the fishy smell.

Chicken stewed with mushrooms and braised fish are two big dishes on New Year's Eve. In addition, Xiao Lingchuan and Li Haitang discussed with their husband and wife to make fried meatballs, shredded red dates, fried diced meat with bean sprouts and carrots, mapo tofu, scrambled eggs with fungus, garlic beans and shredded cabbage.

Vegetables are limited in the Northland in winter, and Li Haitang used to grow vegetables in a greenhouse in Lucheng before, so it is very rare to be able to put together a table.

"Little brother, let's put up window grilles and couplets together."

Xiao Lingchuan was enough for one person in the kitchen, and Li Haitang dragged his younger brother to arrange the yard to make the house more festive.

"Sister, I only have two relatives, you and brother-in-law."

During the Chinese New Year, you can't say depressing words. Li Jinhu took a deep breath. In the future, if he studies hard, he will definitely let his sister live a better life.

"Then you should grow up earlier, marry a wife and have children, then you will have more relatives."

Li Haitang brushed a layer of paste on the back of the window grille, found the correct position, and pasted it on the Korean paper in the middle of the window, beaming with joy.

"I want the imperial examination. Isn't getting married and having children a waste of time? Why don't you give birth to two little buns, so that I can have more relatives."

Li Jinhu had an idea, and he thought about it. This is a good way. If he wants to have more relatives, he can only rely on his elder sister to have more children. This idea is reliable.

"You brat!"

If it was said a few days ago, Li Haitang might not have felt it yet. The problem is that she and her wild husband have consummated their marriage. Xiao Lingchuan seemed to be starving when he suddenly saw meat and devoured it. Li Haitang was so tormented that he almost fainted a few times past. She couldn't describe that kind of pleasure well. In short, the savage husband is young and energetic, with a good waist and a good kidney.
