? After dinner, everyone should go to work and take a break. Old man Zhao went to take a rest. Zhao Wentao made tea and sat in the yard with Father Zhao to talk.
"You take the mutton back and you make dumplings to eat. You originally wanted to buy more, but the lamb was too skinny, and it didn't produce much, so it was all robbed." Father Zhao said.
"Father, you can keep it for eating, I can get mutton if I want it." Zhao Wentao said.
"This is for you. I wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't for you." Father Zhao said.
Zhao Wentao knew that his father bought it for his daughter-in-law, so he didn't want to shirk it, so he agreed.
"Father, do pigs still have something to eat?" Zhao Wentao asked about something else.
"Yes, next year, you will raise two more. I heard that the price of pork has risen, and you can earn more by then. In summer, the mountains are full of pigweed. If you put less bran, it will be a meal, and it won't cost much food."
"Okay, but, Dad, I don't eat food, and pigs don't grow fat. Don't worry about food. I'll go and order some tofu dregs." Zhao Wentao said.
"Can the grain be eaten by pigs?" Zhao's father disagreed: "Tofu dregs are good, pigs like to eat this stuff, if there is some wine lees, but it needs to be disposed of."
"Okay, I'll get some when the time comes." Zhao Wentao remembered the winery in the county.
"Also, the sheep you shared will probably have another lamb this year." Father Zhao said very happily.
Last year when we divided the fields and worked alone, Zhao Wentao divided a sheep, which was a lamb. Unexpectedly, a lamb was born this spring, and it was a female. Zhao Wentao did not expect this to be picked up again. Look, it's male and female."
"You're just lucky. The lamb was as thin as a hemp stick when it was divided, and it has grown into a big sheep this year!" Father Zhao was very satisfied when talking about these animals: "If you have time, the sheep pen is a good one. Get it down, I'm afraid it will be born in winter, if it is born in winter, the sheepfold will not work, the lamb will freeze to death, and there are too many things in the house, so I can't put it in."
In the countryside in winter, the lambs are put in the houses where people live, otherwise the lambs will freeze to death. You can imagine what the scene is like. The sheep don¡¯t know how to go outside to defecate, and it¡¯s not just a day or two, they have to stay for a day In winter, wait until the lambs can't be frozen to death in the next spring before getting them out. This winter, all the eating, drinking and laxatives are in the house. The smell, so don't mention it.
In the past, the sheep were concentrated in the production team, and the big guys didn¡¯t have any personal belongings. The production team had a special place for the sheep to lamb, and there was a stove in it. If they did it alone, and the sheep were divided, then lambing is not the only way to go. Enter the house. After all, people gather in one room in winter, let alone a separate room for sheep, which is unrealistic.
Zhao Wentao's sheep are very considerate of their owners, and they gave birth to their lambs just in time for the warmth of spring, so they don't have to harm the owner's house. Then they moved into the rabbit farm, and there is no chance of harming the owner's house.
Zhao Wentao has seen the scene of sheep lambing in the house in the village. The smell is overwhelming, the ground is covered with corn stalks, and there is no place to lay down. He came out after a few seconds, and he couldn't bear it.
The lamb is so considerate of his master, Zhao Wentao will definitely give it a greenhouse for the whole production, besides, other lambs will also be used in the future.
"Okay, Dad, let me see where it is so I can get a heater." Zhao Wentao made a big deal when he said it.
Zhao's father was speechless: "The heating is still on. As a human being, you can ask people to take off some adobe, build a house next to the sheepfold, and put a stove in it. Then, sooner or later, I will light the stove. Put more mud on it, don't worry about it." Use bricks, that thing won't keep you warm."
"Okay!" Zhao Wentao was very obedient.
The father and two talked about the rabbit farm for a while. It was almost night, and Zhao's father and Zhao's mother both urged them to go back. They also brought a child. Don't be too late. The child's eyes are clean, what to do if he sees dirty things.
The little monkey seemed to know that he was going home, so he rushed back. Zhao Wentao saw how dirty it was, so he had no choice but to boil some hot water before leaving, give Tulu a meal, and just wash it. The country is called Tulu, and he sprayed it again. Insect repellent before driving back.
The dumplings I ate at noon were very full, so I made some porridge when I came back in the evening, and then performed the moon worship ceremony every August.
This custom was also brought by Zhao's mother. Zhao's father's family was poor, and his grandparents fled famine to beg for food. When they came here, they often moved. To live a stable life, there is a set of rituals for New Year's Day, such as worshiping the moon on August Festival.
When the moon rises to the mid-heaven, a small table is placed at the door of the house, the watermelon is cut into crescent moons, put there, moon cakes, fruits, and wine are placed, and Sanlu incense is burned, and when it is about the same time, kneel and kowtow, This is the whole process of the ceremony.
Although the family lived separately, Zhao Wentao still inherited Zhao's mother's habits.?, the ceremony was carried out very seriously.
Xiao Baiyang played in the rabbit farm for a day, but he is still very energetic. Looking at the crescent moon on the table, he wants to catch it.
Ye Chuchu quickly hugged him and pointed to the moon for him.
"Little Baiyang, look what it is, the moon, how round the moon is, today is the August Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon is the roundest."
Zhao Wentao sat on the side and said with a smile: "Little Baiyang, there is Chang'e on the moon. Chang'e is so beautiful. When you grow up, you will marry me as a daughter-in-law!"
Ye Chuchu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "The one who wants to marry Chang'e is Zhu Bajie, and you treat your son as Zhu Bajie!"
At this time, the Journey to the West TV series has not yet come out, but the story of Journey to the West is well-known, comic books, comic books, and the county repertory troupe will also perform in the countryside, so the husband and wife are no strangers.
Zhao Wentao laughed and said: "What's wrong with being Zhu Bajie? Sleep when you're full, eat when you're full, and don't worry about anything. How nice! If my son is like Zhu Bajie, he will be blessed! Isn't he? son?"
Little Bai Yang only knows how to be silly.
At that time, the little monkey next to him squeaked.
Ye Chuchu smiled and said, "There's also Brother Monkey here."
"Brother Monkey is miserable!" Zhao Wentao said with a smile, "I am busy saving my master every day, and if I don't do well, I will be chanted a curse! Come on, Brother Monkey, you have worked so hard, let me eat some fruit."
There were some small apples and big pears on the plate. Zhao Wentao gave one to the little monkey, but the little monkey was full and refused to eat. He gave it to little Baiyang. A small front tooth could not be gnawed for a long time, and it was only filled with mouthfuls of saliva. The couple who saw it laughed loudly.
It was almost time for the monthly payment, the two kowtowed, packed up and went back to sleep.
The next day, Zhao Wentao planned to stay at home for a day and knock down the sunflowers. As a result, the helpers from the city came again. Although only five or six came, five or six were enough to knock down the sunflowers.
"Zhao Wentao, we are here to help you, you have to order a good meal for us." (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
