, this is your business, and we have no say in it, but this is our territory, and we don't welcome you! You'd better leave quickly. Keep talking, and you'll lose all face. Before you even enter the ne...After years of hard work, the five mu of land have now been harvested.
Dozens of sacks of potatoes were tossed directly into the storeroom.
The corn kernels had all formed, some even ground into cornmeal.
The mere thought of sweet corn cakes makes Jia Yin's mouth water.
But no, this cornmeal is for all those mouths in the courtyard; there's none for her!
Four little piglets, who weren't well-fed in their daily lives, were mostly given a few cabbage leaves to eat.
So, they don't grow quickly.
Half a year has passed, and it's only gained 80 to 90 pounds, which is very pitiful.
With corn noodles, I could finally put on some weight.
However, you can't eat meat.
Four piglets, when buying them, I specially chose two males and two females.
From the local farmers' market in my hometown, all the pigs are raised by villagers nearby.
Unlike those specially bred pigs raised for fast growth, they are not as quickly grown but have more flavorful meat.
Even the boars have not been touched, and they have remained fertile.
Jia Yin just hopes to wait another two years before she gets better.
These two young pigs will fall in love and have children.
If she has children and grandchildren, she will have an endless supply of pork to eat.
It's so exciting just thinking about it!
The four little pigs didn't know that because of their fertility, they had dodged a swift and brutal fate...
Those ducks and geese are pretty good too.
He roams around all day, finding himself some snacks. A few leaves are enough to satisfy him.
One egg a day, sometimes two.
A group of model workers has already filled two salted duck egg jars at Li's house.
But those little chicks, they are the happiest of all.
Two roosters, each with seven or eight hens in their harems, boasted that they could half-fly thanks to their wings. They frequently sneaked into the back fields to steal corn, gobbling it down slickly and leaving nothing behind.
It's just the beginning of spring, and a hen has already laid over twenty eggs and is resting.
In less than a month, there were dozens of fluffy little chicks in the small courtyard.
This is also why Jia Yin endured the temptation to eat chicken. Besides giving her mother tonic on their journey of fleeing, she had never once considered killing a chicken.
In the long run, sustainable development is the unchanging goal of our courtyard.
Now I'm just waiting to plant at home, planting three acres of sorghum, one acre of potatoes, and one acre of corn.
Sorghum supplements the family income, while field production focuses on potatoes and corn to feed chickens and pigs.
Cornstalks and corn cobs can both be used as fuel.
By then, it will be useful for cooking a cooked meal for the pig.
In addition to these, Jia Yin also gave herself a big task, which was to find stones around the five-mu plot of land. She even moved all the stones from the back wall of her courtyard.
She cleaned the stones and placed them in the middle of the courtyard. In the most visible and accessible position.
This was her self-defense measure, but unfortunately, she hadn't had a chance to practice it yet.
Otherwise, she wanted to try if she could move these stones away.
It is best to appear at a height of ten or so meters and aim accurately before dropping.
Not to mention humans, even a cow could be instantly killed.
To be honest, Wu Erdog's secret trip to the casino with her before left a shadow in her heart.
That helpless fear, she didn't want to experience it again...
Time is a magical thing. Before it was still cold winds that could cut your face, freezing your hands off.
But after the New Year, just a month or so later, the weather changed dramatically.
The cold wind softened, and the sun became brighter and warmer.
On the slopes and across the land, snow melted rapidly, returning the earth to its original colors with a hint of burgeoning life.
The boys were forbidden to go to the riverbank, and those who disobeyed were often pulled by their mothers' ears, beaten until they cried out in pain.
The Li family wouldn't do that, because the lesson from Jia Xi Jia An was too profound; they learned their lesson well.
The ten mu of land that the Li family bought had been abandoned for two years and was overgrown with weeds.
Li Jia's several brothers, early in the morning, took their tools to the field to cut grass and burn it as wasteland.
Jiārén has already gone back to school, bringing the food prepared by his family, as well as three months' worth of spring semester allowance and some spending money.
Jia Yi was taken away by Liu Biāotou before the first month even ended.
I heard that this trip isn't far, and you can make a round trip in a month.
Jia Huan followed his mother Zhao Yuru and aunt Tao Hongying out to the kitchen twice more.
He is now a qualified assistant chef, skilled at chopping and preparing vegetables.
After discussing with Zhao Yuru, Tao Hongying often let Jiahuan cook at home.
Never mind if it's good or bad, we are all family. No one picks and chooses.
In this way, there weren't many people who could work in the fields. Only Li Lao Er and his younger brothers, Lao San and Lao Si, were left, along with two boys, Jia Xi and Jia An.
Fortunately, the Li family only bought ten acres of land.
There was a man named Li Laosi who was born with superhuman strength, able to handle the work of three people on his own. He managed to keep up despite being busy.
The villagers weren't in a hurry at first, but seeing the Li family getting to work, they all became busy as well.
Jia Yin was rolling around anxiously on the kang in the room, she was incredibly bored.
She wants to go out!
The weather outside was still too cold for a little baby like her.
Lao Li was on high alert, absolutely not allowing her granddaughter to leave her sight for a moment, not even Tao Hongying.
Even breastfeeding had to be done indoors, and Tao Hongying was happy that way.
It has to be said that the whole family is still haunted by the loss of the child.
Jia Yin is helpless and can only try her best to practice crawling.
But who would tell her why she had to kick her legs like a frog to hop farther when she stood up.
This pose is too unsightly, it's not suitable for such a beautiful girl!
Jiāxǐ jiā'ān ran into the house from outside. Seeing her little sister flushed with exhaustion, she couldn't help but come forward and tease her.
"Haha, sister looks like a big toad."
"Little sister, give it your all, yes, kick your legs, kick your legs!"
When Old Mrs. Li saw her granddaughter stop moving, she guessed that she was angry, so she quickly called out to her grandsons.
"Aren't you all back from working in the fields Look at you, dirty as mud monkeys, go wash up!"
Jiā xǐ jiā ān gǎn jǐn fēng pǎo chū qù, biān pǎo biān dǎ nào, táo qì de bù chéng xíng zhàng. **Translated:**Family joy family peace quickly ran out, while running and playing, naughty appearance.
Li Laotai hugged her granddaughter and coaxed her.
"Funiu'er isn't angry, grandma will take you outside to get some sun."
Jia Yin immediately became happy and danced with joy.
She has been cooped up in the house for a month, and I'm going crazy!
When Li Laotai had wrapped Jia Yin in cotton wool-like warmth, Li Lao'er who had gone into the city also returned.
He hitched a ride in the village head's donkey cart, laughing as he called out loudly.
"Mother, I bought sorghum seeds and millet. There are many more people in the city than before, everyone is busy planting."
Li Laotai stepped forward to take a look, and also smiled.
"Everyone is busy preparing for the coming year. The success of the year depends on spring, so nobody dares to slack off."
Jia Yin stared intently at the bags of grain on the donkey cart, her eyes shining with excitement.
Her courtyard's field hasn't been planted with sorghum seeds yet.
I guess I have to be a thief again.
Li Lao'er carried the seeds into the warehouse and was just about to return the donkey cart.
Grandma Li went through her household supplies and kept what she wanted.
Taking this opportunity, Jia Yin stretched out her hand and put the bag of good seeds into her spatial pouch.
Li Laotai turned around and was startled by the empty floor.
Where are the grain bags
She looked all around, but it was nowhere to be found.
Looking at the beaming granddaughter, what else is there not to understand.
She lowered her voice and whispered to her granddaughter, "Funiuer, do you need seeds"
"Ah," Jia Yin responded.
"Is this enough, or should I have your second uncle buy some more"
"Ah, ah."
"What about the wheat and the rapeseed Do those need to be harvested too"
The grandfather and grandson were having a lively question-and-answer session, but Li La Er went back and forth.
He shouted in the courtyard, “Mother, the village head and several elder uncles have arrived.”
Old Mrs. Li quickly took Jia Yin out, and sure enough, the village head and several old men from next door were in the courtyard.
This is definitely something to say!icken egg. It was hungry but also wanted to play. Its fox face was full of struggle, making everyone in the house laugh.As soon as the dishes were served, Li Lao'er hurried back."Gee, why is the secon...
