There was nothing she could do inside or outside, and she had lost two egg-laying poultry in vain, so Cao Zhaodi finally chose to take a radical approach.
She can only say that harming others will eventually harm yourself.
Because of the second room's affairs, the reunion dinner was much later. It was after noon and it was not yet time for dinner.
At the dinner table, the second couple were not there, and Hu Chunsheng had returned to his usual self.
But the atmosphere is inevitably a bit depressing.
Hu Lin felt relieved only after he saw Cao Zhaodi starting to eat the chicken and duck on the table.
There are thousands of poisons in the world, but this thing has been dead for so long and has been dried and changed color by the wind.
When she saw it, it was either in the pot or had been blanched in water, and no surface features could be seen at all.
So she wasn't sure whether the meat had been poisoned.
Since she dared to eat them, these chickens and ducks were definitely not poisoned.
Unless Cao Zhaodi goes crazy and insists on dragging everyone in the Hu family to death.
But she still didn't eat the meat. After knowing the truth, she felt uncomfortable.
After a quick meal, Hu Lin and his family went back home.
After tonight, it will be a new year.
During the first month of the year, relatives from various families would visit Xiaohe Village from time to time.
Neighbors also visit each other, and if the weather is not so cold, life would be leisurely.
Those who are in debt and those who just meet the quota have a much harder time.
Just have a meal of porridge a day with two sweet potatoes and a hairy taro, and that's it.
I eat half full every day, and only occasionally eat until I am 80% full.
Therefore, these people hate winter the most and look forward to the spring when flowers bloom so that they can go to the fields to earn work points.
If their family did not have the mountain products picked during the autumn harvest and the wild game caught by Hu Lin, their life would be the same as those debtors.
The food ration that Hu Xiaoyi received alone was not enough to feed a family of three.
Fortunately, Hu Lin had foresight and was well prepared.
The two families at the end of the village did not go out during the first month of the year.
I stayed in this small house for two months.
Except when they are taking things out of the cellar or when they are really bored in the house, they can be seen taking a walk under the eaves.
The rest of the time, all you can see is snow piled up under their eaves.
After the spring equinox, the snow melted faster, and by early April, the winter was finally over.
In late March, the village organized the start of the new year's work.
As soon as the autumn wheat is planted, rice seedlings must be raised, and potatoes, corn, sorghum, buckwheat, glutinous rice, oats, millet, hairy taro... and many other crops must be planted.
I also planted seeds bought from the county town in my own private plot.
Such as: sugar radish, coix seed, red beans, green beans, mung beans... and so on, there are many other vegetables.
Li Aihua expanded the private plot behind the house, and now it is as big as the private plot in the Hu family's backyard.
Li Aihua said that some of the crops grown on public land should be planted in private plots.
These are all to supplement their family’s food rations, the more you work, the more you earn.
Fortunately, Lao Zheng's weekly supply of manure can make the land more fertile in the short term, otherwise Li Aihua would not have the idea of opening up new land.
She also resumed her daily exercise in the mountains.
Some of the snow deep in the Daqing Mountains has not melted yet, and the temperature is a few degrees lower.
She had removed all the traps at the beginning of the winter and now she had to set them up again.
After working for half a month, all ten traps were ready.
This time she went deeper because many people went up the mountain to chop firewood in the spring, so she wanted to avoid being discovered.
Arrangements for the children to go to school in the new year are also proceeding in full swing.
Days passed one by one, and one day at noon, Hu Xiaoyi said at the dinner table that she would go to school later.
He just said it would be later but didn't specify the specific time, which is also a bluff.
Hu Lin made up his mind not to go to school, so he didn't argue with Hu Xiaoyi.
Seeing that Hu Lin accepted it so calmly, Hu Xiaoyi felt even more uneasy.
That's not the way you are!
He confirmed it again and again until Hu Lin got annoyed and started to turn his face away and mock him, then he stopped.
From late March to the end of April, the farmers were busy harvesting the spring wheat and planting all the crops.
In early May, after the busy farming season, Hu Lin picked a sunny day and took Li Aihua to Yang's house.
The poultry shed was built during the autumn harvest last year and now we are just waiting for supplies.
I don’t know whether Yang Qing told his parents about what he agreed to.
At the Yang family, only the village chief's wife was at home at this time, as the village chief had gone to inspect the fields.
Seeing the mother and daughter coming, the village chief's wife smiled and welcomed them into the house, pouring each of them a glass of sugar water.
The village chief's wife looked Hu Lin up and down and said, "This girl seems to have grown taller."
"Really?" Li Aihua looked at Hu Lin in surprise.
They lived together every day, but they didn't notice that either of them had grown taller.
"You watch it every day, so it's normal that you didn't notice it." The village chief's wife gave Li Aihua a way out.
Li Aihua smiled somewhat awkwardly.
"Why didn't you go to school?" The village chief's wife paused, but still asked hesitantly.
Jianya is six years old this year and it’s time for her to go to school.
"Uh." Li Aihua was caught off guard by this question and was a little flustered for a moment.
Her daughter's thoughts and the Hu family's thoughts emerged in her mind, but they were obviously not suitable reasons to talk about.
"My dad told me that my grandparents should let me go to school later because I'm still too young."
Seeing Li Aihua's indecisive look, Hu Lin simply threw the old couple out to take the blame.
