Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children

On the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, the Xu family slaughtered pigs.

Although Xu Shiqin is married, there is no need to hold a banquet here to entertain guests, but he has to prepare some food to entertain relatives from afar.

Besides, don't you have to prepare for the New Year?

The Xu family has been like this for the past few years, killing pigs and celebrating the New Year with excitement.

No matter what age, the slaughter of pigs during the New Year is the most lively.

In the yard, a large iron pot was set up, with dry firewood under it, and the water in the pot was boiling with white flowers.

The pig butcher raised the knife with a sharp knife in his hand, and the big fat pig let out a few desperate screams before falling silent.

Here, the pig blood should be collected. After the pig blood is collected, hot water is poured immediately to remove the hair, open the meat, and then cut the meat into pieces.

Then wash what needs to be washed, cut what needs to be cut, put a pot of meat in the big pot, and cut a big pot of sauerkraut at the other end.

Come to a pot of sauerkraut stewed with big bones, or sauerkraut white meat blood sausage, and it is delicious to have a hot meal.

The Xu family slaughtered a pig for a happy event, and Zhao Jianshe and others stopped what they were doing and came to help.

Xu Shi'an was also there. He was in the provincial capital before passing by. Xu Shi'an, Huang Shengli and others were also familiar with each other and got along well.

The big guys were talking and laughing together, grinning big and so on from time to time, it was lively and interesting.

While busy with work, Xu Shixian, Xu Shide, and Xu Shixiang's family also arrived together.

Needless to say, this must have been an appointment in advance to come back together.

"Yo, is the pig slaughtered at home? It's so lively." Xu Shixian smiled as soon as he entered the gate and saw the scene in the yard.

"Father, mother, the fourth and fifth children and I are back. The sixth younger sister is going out the day after tomorrow. Let's come back and see if there is anything we can do to help?"

The brothers all carried things in their hands. After greeting everyone in the yard, they entered the east room with smiles on their faces.

In the east room, Xu Chenghou was chatting with Zhao Dahai, Yu Shouguang, Zhou Changhe and others.

To slaughter pigs during the New Year, you must invite relatives and friends to come and have fun.

Hearing his son's voice, Xu Chenghou showed a kind smile on his face at the right time, and looked up at the door of the house.

I saw three sons leading their wives and their children, and a dozen people came in from outside.

"Yo, you're back so early? You're still thinking that you have to be home tomorrow.

Are you not busy at work? Is it okay to ask for a long time off? " Xu Chenghou asked with a smile.

"It's okay, seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, who wouldn't take a few days off to make New Year's goods?

Dad, Mom, how are the two elders doing recently? Are you okay? "

Before anyone else could speak, Xue Xiulin was the first to speak. While talking, she put the things in her hand on the table.

"Well, it's almost Chinese New Year, and there are quite a lot of goods sold in the county these days.

Just buy some food for the family, just to save the elders from buying new year's goods. "

"Fourth, fifth, put down the things in your hands, it's strange to carry so many things."

Xue Xiulin winked at her brother-in-law and sister-in-law, telling them to say something and put their things down.

"Father, mother, what sister-in-law said is that we don't come back often, and buy something for the family, and the two elders will keep it and eat slowly."

On the other side, Xu Shixiang and the others came to their senses and quickly put everything on the table.

The three families did buy a lot of things, and the ones on the ground stood aside, and half of the tables were piled up.

"Look, it's not easy for you to go to work and earn that little salary, so why spend so much money?

Your mother and I don't need anything, and the young couple have bought everything they should buy. "

Xu Chenghou didn't even look at the things on the table, he just smiled at the children.

"Jingyi, Jingwen, come, come to grandparents, let grandparents see, is our good granddaughter getting fat again?"

The old man clapped his hands and greeted the two little granddaughters with a smile.

I don't want Xu Jingyi and Xu Jingwen's two babies, but they each hold their mother's thighs, and they don't want to find Xu Chenghou.

Wu Qiuyan and Chen Chunling's expressions changed immediately, and each gave their daughter a push.

"What are you doing? Your grandparents miss you and want to hug you. Why don't you come forward? What the hell are you?"

The two little girls pursed their lips and were about to cry. When Zhou Guilan saw it, she hurried down to the ground, took out a few pieces of candy from her pocket, and distributed them to the two granddaughters.

"Come on, grandma has delicious food here, two yuan per person."

When the two girls saw Tang, they stopped crying immediately and each held Tang in their hands.

"How old is the child? Why do you compete with children?

They come back twice a year, and usually don't look at us, so why not give birth? Just tell them well. "

Zhou Guilan was not very happy, so she glanced at the two daughter-in-laws.

Wu Qiuyan and Chen Chunling each opened their mouths, wanting to speak but didn't know what to say.

Just at this time, Xu Jinfeng and Xu Jinxiu who were next to her came over and hugged Zhou Guilan with smiles on their faces.

"Grandma, we miss you, and you won't go to the county to live for a few days."

Xu Jinfeng is fourteen, the fifteenth year of the new year, Xu Jinxiu eleventh, the twelveth year of the new year.

Both of them are old and sensible, and they both grew up with Zhou Guilan since they were young, so they have feelings after all, and they kiss each other when they meet.

Zhou Guilan smiled when she saw the two granddaughters, "Oh, I haven't seen you for half a year, and the two children have grown up again, and the longer they are, the more handsome they are.

Old Xu, look, our granddaughter has grown into a big girl. "

For the old lady, her grandchildren are her treasures, especially the ones she brought up since she was a child, which really hurts her heart.

"Grandma, and me, why don't you tell me that I've grown into a young man too?"

Xu Haibin jumped out from behind his sister, pouted and said.

"Isn't that right? You are a serious young man.

Oh, looking at you children, me and your grandpa, my heart is beautiful. "

Xu Haibin, who is nine years old this year and will be ten years old next year, has inherited the Xu family's tall genes, so he is indeed not short.

It's just that his personality is eccentric and mischievous, he is definitely a naughty monkey, and he can't wait to go to heaven and earth.

Of course, in the eyes of grandparents, no matter how naughty they are, they are their grandsons, which is rare.

"Hurry up, come here, go to the kang, and grandma will find something delicious for you."

Zhou Guilan dragged the two little girls, Xu Jingwen and Xu Jingyi, and greeted the older ones, and they all went to the kang.

Xu Jinfeng, Xu Jinxiu, and Xu Haibin all came to Grandpa right now.

Xu Haibin beat his grandfather's back, Xu Jinfeng filled his grandfather's cigarette bag, and Xu Jinxiu took a match to light the fire.

The three children wandered around the grandfather, making Xu Chenghou so happy, the wrinkles on their faces deepened a lot.

But only Xu Haiyang, standing beside Xu Shide, neither stepped forward nor spoke to his grandparents, but quietly looked at everyone in the room.

Seeing her son like this, Wu Qiuyan couldn't help being a little angry, so she pushed Xu Haiyang.

"Look at you, you said you missed your grandparents when you were at home, why don't you say a word here?

Hurry up, go talk to your grandparents? "

Xu Haiyang was pushed by his mother, turned to look at Xu Shide, saw his father pouting at him, Xu Haiyang walked to the kang.

"Grandpa, Grandma." He called out in a gentle voice.

"Hey, hey, good, our Haiyang has also grown taller, have you gone to school yet? Is it time for first grade?"

With a thick smile, Xu Cheng pulled Xu Haiyang to him and asked.

"Father, Haiyang hasn't started elementary school yet, go in autumn." Wu Qiuyan explained later.

"Oh, I haven't gone to school yet.

Look at me, I can’t remember clearly when I’m older, Haiyang is eight years old after the Chinese New Year, right?

I thought Yuanyuan was in the second grade, how could Haiyang be in the first grade? "
