"With a pig this big, there must be some leftovers!"
The two uncles were delighted: "Uncle is just saying hello to you. I'll get my knife ready later. Pick out the fattest ones and cut them two for me!"
"OK."
Fu Jingyou agreed readily.
There was a lot of commotion in front of the Fu family's house.
Many people in the village saw it and came over to join in the fun to see what was going on.
As soon as they saw Fu Jingyou and his men carrying a pig with its hooves tied up out of the pigpen, those who came to watch knew what was going on.
"Killing the pig now? Isn't it too early? There are still 20 or 30 days until the Chinese New Year!"
"It's a little early, but it's getting cold, so the meat won't spoil."
Some people think it's too early to slaughter pigs.
Some people also think that there is nothing strange about this.
Lu Miao has woken up from his doze.
Many people came to the door. In addition to those who came to watch the pig being slaughtered, there were also people who kept looking into the house.
The curtains were not drawn, and Lu Miao didn't know how many times he had seen a shadowy figure peeking into the room from the window.
Lu Miao was a little unhappy.
What's so good about looking at other people's wives and children sleeping?
Unable to lie down any longer, Lu Miao sat up and prepared to put on his clothes.
Just then, Fu Jingyou came in with a white knife and took out a red knife, stabbing it into the neck of the big white pig. Blood gushed out into the basin, and the pig was still kicking and screaming.
The screaming sound startled Lu Miao.
It was okay that Dabao was leaning against her. The boy was sleeping soundly and was not affected much. He moved a few times and continued to sleep.
Erbao's rocking bed was close to the window. He was originally fast asleep, but the sound of slaughtering a pig startled him and he started to shiver.
Erbao groaned twice and started crying.
"Xia Xia, don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
Lu Miao quickly carried Erbao to the bed, kissed Erbao's soft little face, and patted him gently to coax him:
"Mom is here, Mom is here..."
"Mom, Mom..."
Erbao felt very aggrieved and snuggled into Lu Miao's arms with his little mouth.
"Mom is here."
Lu Miao pulled the quilt over and wrapped Erbao up.
After finally coaxing Erbao, I suddenly felt a chill on my back.
A cold wind blew and Lu Miao shivered.
I glanced back and saw a unfamiliar face at the door.
"Oh my, it's already this late, and Xiaoliu's wife hasn't woken up yet! She really knows how to enjoy herself."
"There's a stove in the room, no wonder it's so warm."
As the two young wives talked, they pushed the door open a little wider, and it seemed that they wanted to come into the room.
There is a big temperature difference between indoors and outdoors. Even though the room is warm because of the stove, Fu Jingyou and his friends are usually very careful when entering and exiting and opening the door.
If you are not careful and the door is opened a little wider, the stove may have burned for several hours in vain.
Besides, Lu Miao had just woken up and hadn't had time to put on his clothes, so he was still wearing the thin jacket he wore to sleep.
The door was open wide and the cold wind made her shiver.
The second baby in her arms was also shivering, and his little face was so cold that he kept pressing against her chest.
"Mom, Mom."
Children don’t know what cold is, and they will only call for their mothers whether they are comfortable or not.
Lu Miao pulled the quilt over Dabao and Erbao to cover them tightly. Then he turned around and his expression suddenly turned cold:
"Do you have any manners?"
"Is this your home? Do you knock before entering? You can enter any house!"
"Hey, how can you talk like that? Isn't that how people in the village talk when they visit each other?"
The two young wives didn't know how to write the word "embarrassment". They were unhappy about what was said and started to shoot at the door:
"Why, just because you're from the city you're special and noble, right? If you're so special and noble, why would you marry a country man? Just marry someone from the city!"
“Get out!”
Lu Miao got angry and started throwing things at people.
There was a lot of noise outside the door, and Fu Jingyou didn't pay attention to what was happening inside the house for a while.
The enamel pot fell to the ground with a clang clang clang sound.
Fu Jingyou felt something was wrong, so he called a young man to help hold the pig down. He walked into the house with blood all over his face.
Seeing that there were two female comrades from the team standing at the door, they thought that Lu Miao had gotten up and was chatting with them.
As he approached and heard something strange, Fu Jingyou frowned deeply:
"What are you doing here?"
"Hey, Comrade Xiaoliu, aren't you slaughtering a pig today? We're all from the same village, and we're here to help."
"No help here."
Fu Jingyou said firmly.
Why don’t you help me work outside and come into the room?
Are you sure you're not here to cause trouble for his wife?
Are you sick?
There was blood on his hands, and the other party was a female comrade. Fu Jingyou didn't want to fight with them, so he directly called Chen Guifen over.
As soon as Chen Guifen came over, without Fu Jingyou's explanation, she directly pulled the two people blocking the door out:
"If you're thirsty, there's water on the table in the main hall. If you're free, there's plenty of work to do outside!"
"There's an adult nursing a child inside, and there are grown men outside. You're also a young wife... and you can't think of anything?"
“…This, this…”
The two young daughters-in-law stammered and were pulled out of the door by Chen Guifen.
He Hongjin was the team leader of the production team. No matter how powerful the two young wives were, they did not dare to challenge Chen Guifen.
Fu Jingyou entered the room and closed the door with his foot, "Wife."
Lu Miao glared at him angrily, "If anyone opens this door again today, I will never let you go!"
"Definitely not."
Fu Jingyou raised his hand, wanting to get closer and kiss her.
Lu Miao glared at him and cursed, "Get away from me! You reek of pig!"
Fu Jingyou chuckled softly: "Then I'll go do my work first, and come back after I'm done and clean up."
Lu Miao pouting, held Erbao in his arms and rocked him gently, ignoring him.
Fu Jingyou left the room, closed the door, and dragged the washstand on the side of the main hall door to block the door of the room.
In the room, Lu Miao got out of bed and bolted the door from the inside.
Most of the people in the countryside are simple and honest, but there are indeed some people with poor quality.
Lu Miao was really surprised by people coming to someone's house to challenge him like today.
I have never seen such an uneducated person.
Lu Miao was so angry that he let out a deep breath.
The second baby on the bed arched his back in the quilt and poked out his little head.
"Mom, Mom, come here~"
Erbao patted the bed.
A chubby little face and a babyish voice.
It immediately healed Lu Miao's mood.
"Mom is here."
Lu Miao walked closer to the bed, put on the second baby's clothes first, and then took out the first baby.
The sound of slaughtering pigs in front of the Fu family's door attracted more villagers.
The educated youth from the educated youth camp also came to join in the fun.
Lu Miao folded the quilt and made the bed neatly.
There were many people walking around outside the door, so for the time being, we couldn't let the eldest and second babies play in the fence while the stove was burning in the main room as before.
Lu Miao dressed the two little ones and put them on the bed without letting them get down.
The educated youth came to join in the fun, and Lu Miao directly called Gu Ying and Ren Bingxin in at the window.
Yang Xiaojing was wearing thin clothes and was very cold outside, so she came in to join in the fun.
Lu Miao asked the three of them to help look after the child temporarily, and quickly packed up and went to the backyard to wash up.
Geng Xiaoyun was helping outside the door.
She is physically strong and warm-hearted.
While her uncles were slaughtering pigs and cutting meat, she was helping out.
