Chapter 26 It’s Snowing (please collect and recommend)
Li Hongbin took away half a fan of pork. He took out the money to buy the pork and handed it to Zhang Jianguo. Zhang Jianguo said nothing but confiscated it.
He said he would give it to his godson, but he didn’t take it in the end anyway.
Unexpectedly, Li Hongbin came to the countryside again this morning.
As soon as I arrived, I pulled Zhang An to the grain drying field because this guy brought a big refrigerator.
The feeling is that the pork family confiscated his money yesterday. He saw that Zhang An’s house did not have a refrigerator, so he directly bought a refrigerator and sent it to Zhang An’s house.
I originally didn’t want to accept it, but Zhang Jianguo also refused, but people said that if I didn’t accept it, I would be treating him as an outsider.
"Uncle, just accept it. I hope you always give me half a pig. If you don't, I will buy you a refrigerator. Take it now, otherwise you won't regard us as your own." ”
In the end I couldn’t refuse, so I accepted it.
Zhang An also thought clearly, this money is just a drop of money to Li Dahu, and he treats it as a wealthy family.
Now the word spread in the village, everyone said that Zhang An met a rich man and gave someone half a fan of pork the first day, and the next day they returned a large refrigerator.
The words are sour.
After dividing the more than 100 kilograms of pork that Li Hongbin brought back among his several foremen, there was still a lot left.
They kept these for themselves. After all, they had just eaten it and they knew that the meat was much better than the meat outside.
. . .
Unconsciously, winter has been here for a long time, and it is getting colder and colder. It is estimated that it will snow in the next two days.
There was a lot of pork left at home to be used for bacon, so after Zhang An got up that day, he had to go up the mountain to collect firewood and bring it back to smoke the bacon.
There are a lot of people collecting firewood in the mountains now, because every household has to smoke it.
Some people are more particular about it, so they go to the mountains to cut arborvitae branches and smoke them. People who are not very particular about it just burn whatever they encounter.
The difference is that the meat smoked by Platycladus arborvitae not only has a fragrance, but also looks golden on the surface.
In fact, pine trees can also be used, but the smoked pine branches will make it a little darker and not so pretty.
Other dry firewood is more common, but now the smoked meat is eaten at home and will not be sold unless given away, so I don’t care that much.
Zhang An followed Zhang Jianguo up the mountain for a walk and cut a bunch of arborvitae strips early in the morning and carried them back.
Zhang An was very insensitive to the process of smoking meat. He was unwilling to stay by the fire pit and watch the bacon because the smoke was too smoky.
But my father didn’t seem to have any feelings about these cigarettes, so in the end the project was handed over to his old man, and Zhang An was lazy.
Since the weather has gotten colder and colder, the ducks have not gone to the river again.
They all stayed at home obediently. Wang Fang would feed them every day anyway.
Only the big dark horse in the circle is not adaptable, because it originally had two roommates. After Zhang An took it out for a trip that day, he came back only to find that his roommates were gone.
As expected, the two-legged beast is not that easy to mess with. You must be obedient and try your best when working in the future, otherwise it would be terrible if one day he suddenly disappears like your roommate.
There is no grass in winter, so Zhang An naturally has no excuse to bring the grass out of the space for the big dark horse to enjoy.
But Wang Fang liked the big dark horse's performance at home this year. Not only did he carry a lot of horses, but he was also obedient.
So after winter came, Wang Fang was not stingy and ate her corn every day.
Although corn is not as fragrant as the grass in the space, some are good to eat. Big Dark Horse still knows it well and is not picky.
What it doesn’t know is that in other people’s homes, the animals eat straw in winter, so there is no food to feed them.
That night, white snowflakes floated in the sky.
Of course at this time Zhang An was already dreaming in bed.
When I woke up the next day, it was already snowy white outside. The entire mountain forest was completely uniform, and there was still heavy snowfall.
It’s better now, the snowflakes are so clean now.
Although it snows every winter in my hometown in later generations, it is not so heavy, and the number of snowfalls is getting fewer and fewer. It is just empty ice.
The children in the village all ran outside to play in the snow, but they were quickly punished by the adults at home.
Because each of them doesn't have much clothes now, and they have to change their clothes and pants when they get wet while playing in the snow, for fear of catching a cold.
Zhang An also became more playful, picked up the shovel and started playing in the yard.
For most of the day, I built a big snowman half as tall as myself.
This was seen by Zhang Tie who came to Zhang An's house to play. He always envied his eldest brother for playing in the snow, and his uncle and aunt didn't even tell him.
The heavy snow fell continuously for one day and two nights, and finally stopped during the day the next day.
Going down further, the road is blocked.
Although the crops in the fields are covered with heavy snow, the farmers are very happy.
As the auspicious snow heralds a good year, next year will be another good one.
When the accumulated snow melts, it will penetrate into the ground, adding not only water content to the ground, but also some trace elements in the snow.
Most importantly, the freezing snow will freeze pests on crops to death.
That’s why there is a saying that auspicious snow heralds a good harvest.
"Brother An, what are you doing? If nothing happens, let's go to the mountain to find rabbits."
Zhang An was already bored, but now Zhang Bin from his second uncle's family came and called, that's for sure Can't sit still.
After finding the tools, the brothers walked towards the mountains.
Zhang Tie is definitely indispensable. This guy can't stay at home and likes to hang out outside.
It snowed so hard that the road on the mountain was no longer visible, and some short prickly pear pods were buried under the heavy snow.
However, in such an environment, it is easier for everyone to find traces of hares.
Of course, the three tigers at home are indispensable. They have usually caught a lot of hares and brought them home. After all, chasing dogs and hunting rabbits is considered orthodox.
Zhang An found several places where hares were active and began to lay traps.
Most of the hares in the mountains have gray fur, and sometimes it’s hard to spot them in the white snow.
After taking advantage of several traps, Zhang An did not continue.
I don’t know if it was during the day or for some other reason, but I found rabbit footprints in several places, but I never saw them.
On the contrary, the two brothers Zhang Bin actually picked up a frozen rabbit. They were so hard that they must have been frozen to death last night.
The further you walked into the mountains, the more footprints you saw. Zhang An even saw traces of mountain deer. The footprints were somewhat blurry as they went all the way into the mountains, but Zhang An did not pursue them.
Suddenly, Zhang An heard a noise, looked for the sound and went over to see the three tigers making an attack gesture under a huge rock.
Zhang An walked over and took a look, and saw a small mountain deer lying under the stone, letting out a fragile whine.
Zhang An probably fell behind when the deer herd was moving.
The body is too small, about the same size as a local dog, but the legs are longer. It should be a newly born fawn.
Zhang An calmed the big dogs at home, and then walked up to check on the little deer. His body was a little cold. If he hadn't been discovered by the three tigers, he would have frozen to death soon.
There was no one around. Based on the principle that saving the deer's life was better than building a seven-level pagoda, Zhang An directly took the deer into the space.
