Chapter 677 Crazy New Year Ceremony [5]
Therefore, General Huaqi told Xiao Tao Xiaoqi: "Pick up the New Year gifts and leave thirteen cars of food, clothing and use. The remaining fifty cars will be sent back to General Liang and sent back in the name of our Lang Qianhu."
They are soldiers of Lang Qianhu, so such a long-faced thing will naturally be reported to Shangguan.
"Yes!" Xiao Tao Xiaoqi under his command went to do it immediately, and was so happy that they finally had a fat New Year this year.
Not only can we celebrate the New Year, but a few days later, the Qin family also gave each of them a large bowl of cabbage meat dumplings and a bowl of mutton soup.
Mr. Hua said he would not accept it, but Grandpa Qin said, "It's all cooked. If you don't eat it, where can I finish these dozens of dumplings?"
General Huaqi: "In winter, it's okay to freeze cooked dumplings for half a month, how could it be impossible to finish them?"
Grandpa Qin was angry: "If you don't eat it, I'll take it and pour it out."
this?
General Huaqi had no choice but to accept it.
In the evening of that day, the soldiers ate a bite of big dumplings and then drank a sip of warm mutton soup, which was so beautiful.
General Huaqi remembered Lang Qianhu and the others: "It's still frozen in the mountains. I don't know if I can have a meal of meat?"
Xiao Tao Xiaoqi: "Yes, my uncle didn't eat the dumplings from the Winter Solstice last year. I've been thinking about it for a year, and I don't know if I can eat it this year? If I don't eat it, I have to nag it for the whole year."
Tao Baihu is his uncle.
Mr. Hua nodded: "If your uncle can't eat the food for the festival on the solar term that day, he will not be able to do anything even if someone pays him to eat."
Hua Zongqi and the others were talking about Lang Qianhu, Tao Baihu and others in the mountains, and the Qin family was also talking about Jiang Dalang and Qin Erun.
"I haven't come out of the mountain yet after the winter solstice. If I don't come out again, the mountain will be blocked with heavy snow. How can they go out of the mountain to go home for the New Year?" Grandma Qin was very worried.
On snowy days, you can still walk on the road outside the mountain. If you want to walk from the mountain to the outside of the mountain, you have to bear the risk of sudden death at any time.
Aunt Qin was also a little worried, mainly because she was worried about Qin Zhuang's broken hand... As soon as it snowed, Qin Zhuang's broken hand would hurt. It was an extremely sore and extremely uncomfortable.
Qin Xiaomi said: "Grandma, don't worry, this Northeast Prefecture is not that cold. I'm afraid it won't snow until the twelfth lunar month. Maybe they will come back at the end of the month."
Seeing Aunt Xu and the others coming with dumplings and mutton soup, she hurriedly said, "The dumplings are cooked, grandma hurry up and start the meal. We all want to eat dumplings."
Jiang Xiaozhu immediately said, "Yeah, yeah, we want to eat dumplings, and mutton soup, we love to eat... I pick mutton offals for Miss Xiaomi, and Miss Xiaomi loves to eat mutton offals."
The ancients here also liked to eat water... They even ate grass roots when they escaped from famine, so how could they not eat water? As long as you eat it, you won’t have a stomachache, everyone will eat it.
Grandma Qin smiled and said to Qin Xiaomi, "Look at how considerate Xiaozhu is to you."
What I mean is that if Xiaozhu loves your sister-in-law like this, just marry the Jiang family and wait to enjoy your happiness!
"..." Qin Xiaomi grabbed Jiang Xiaozhu and Qin Xiaomai, and called Qin Xiaogu and Xiao Jiang Erlang: "Kids stay away, don't hit mutton soup."
"Don't worry, Miss Xiaomi, Xiaogu and I are good at it, so we can avoid it." After the bandits slaughtered the village, Xiao Jiang Erlang was very confident in his skills, and it would be fine to beat ten Xiaogu!
Qin Xiaomi glanced at him and smiled, "Oh, so Erlang is very capable, so add some studies... and start to study the scriptures."
"Cultivation of Books!" Xiao Jiang Erlang shook, and he felt that Miss Xiaomi was even more terrifying than his elder brother: "But I haven't even finished memorizing the Four Books, so I can't manage Books."
The scriptures for tutoring are to study the Four Books and Five Books.
He hasn't started to learn the Five Classics, so where can he cure it? He has no such ability at all!
Qin Xiaomi smiled: "Then you don't work hard yet. Once your brother doesn't stare at you, you start to treat yourself as a small worker. The children of our families don't need to be small worker, do you understand?"
Xiao Jiang Erlang is a bit weird... but he is very easy to satisfy, and he has reached the point where he can eat as long as he has enough food.
But how can you not strive for progress?
She lay down because she had brought several families to a prosperous stage, and her mission was considered to be completed. But these juniors can’t lie down, they all have to rush for her!
They rushed out of the future and she would be able to lie more peacefully in the second half of her life.
Grandma Qin was shocked when she saw that Jiang Erlang was young and hurriedly said, "It's a big holiday, don't scare Erlang, let him have a good winter solstice first."
Grandpa Qin nodded: "Your grandma is right, let's have a meal."
Qin Xiaogu said, "Don't worry, Miss Xiaomi, I will take Erlang to study... Erlang is very smart and will be able to read the Four Books and Five Classics next year."
Xiao Jiang Erlang: “…”
You are talking about you?
But I am me, I can’t study!
Xiao Jiang Erlang was so anxious that he wanted to scratch his head, and remembered his elder brother's teachings, saying that he should behave properly, and if he dares to scratch his head at any time, he will punish him!
"Second brother, sit down and eat dumplings." Jiang Xiaozhu called Xiao Jiang Erlang in a daze, and pushed a bowl of sharp mutton soup to Qin Xiaomi: "Miss Xiaomi eats it and I have picked a lot of mutton soup."
"Dumplings, hot big meat dumplings, eat them Grandma Qin."
"Grandpa Qin..."
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
Jiang Xiaozhu was almost busy and took care of everyone in the family.
Grandma Qin was so happy that she hugged Jiang Xiaozhu and said, "You can eat too, eat more dumplings and mutton to keep your body well so that you won't get sick next year. This is what you, Miss Xiaomi, said."
The mutton is warm and nourishing, and their families have escaped the famine and are weak, so Qin Xiaomi often advises the family not to search and buy more mutton and chicken, which will not be lost.
Therefore, even the stingy Qin Liu's family has a good meal, at least they can eat eggs every day.
If he didn't even give him eggs, Qin Mei would go to Qin Xiaomi to sue Qin Liupo.
...
On the third day after the winter solstice, the pig dealer and the sheep dealer drove another batch of pigs and sheep to Xinda Street, and came to meet the Qin family in person.
Grandpa Qin had been waiting for a long time. After receiving the news, he hurriedly took people out to see the goods.
At the livestock stalls outside Xinda Street, a pile of pigs were offering sand piles in temporary fences.
"Old man, look at this batch of New Year pigs. It's so fat and strong. The lightest one is more than 230 kilograms. I went to five towns to pick it for you. We didn't even come." Zhu Pig dealer pointed at the thirty pigs and praised him, and said, "You always pick it first. After you always pick it, we will send the rest to the Silifang."
In the second half of the sentence, he spoke very quietly.
Grandpa Qin smiled and asked first: "How to sell it?"
Zhu Zhu Zhu soldier said, "Everything is done by pounding and heading... I will calculate the discount price for your family. A pig is five taels and two cents of silver, and a pound of twenty-three cents per pound."
Now that the price of pork has increased, the fatty meat from the pork stall in the town has been sold for 35 cents per pound, which is a full five cents more expensive than when the Qin family first settled down!
Grandpa Qin said, "I'm going to buy it for the first time."
The smallest pig is 230 kilograms, the largest pig... Grandpa Qin looked at it and said that the fattest pig was at least 250 kilograms.
"Finish, let's sell it to you. You always go in and choose a fat pig." The pig dealer was also readily and agreed in one go.
Grandpa Qin took Qin Eryong, Qin Dashi and Qin Dayan into the fence and began to pick New Year pigs.
The batch of New Year pigs sent by Zhu pig dealers are very good. Grandpa Qin quickly picked out fifteen Year pigs: "Just these fifteen."
When Zhu Zhu Zhu soldier saw it, he felt even more happy and bowed and said, "You are kind-hearted, thank you."
