But when you think about the fact that pigs in that era were fed with pig grass and there wasn't as much high-tech as in the future, the comparison is really quite impressive.
“It’s quite impressive.”
When Aunt Li saw a group of them coming, she immediately stretched out her hand and asked them to come and help.
"Xiao Lan and Xiao Tao, go find Xiao Hu and get some more firewood. We'll be making the pig-killing dish later."
"Okay, Aunt Li, we'll go right away." After Song Tanglan said that, she and Su Tao followed the direction Aunt Li said to find Xiaohu. When they saw Xiaohu and a group of boys collecting firewood in the utility room, they immediately went up to help.
"Xiao Hu, where should we put the firewood?"
The two looked at the room full of firewood, and Su Tao couldn't help but ask curiously.
But before Xiaohu could say anything, the little boy next to her answered her question. "Sister Zhiqing, we need to get the firewood onto the cart. Wait a minute, someone will pull it over."
"Yes, Sister Zhiqing, we just need to get enough firewood."
"Aunt Lan, you guys have to be careful. Be careful not to get hit by the firewood." Xiaohu watched their actions and couldn't help but remind them.
"Okay, we will pay attention to it. Thank you for your reminder and concern." After saying that, he took out some fruit candies from his pocket and gave them to the five children.
Several children were very happy to see the candies in their hands. Some of them couldn't help but open them and eat them directly, while others carefully put them in their pockets.
The two of them looked at the children and were afraid that they would feel embarrassed, so they didn't stare at them all the time.
But he also paid attention to their actions. He saw a special child and was reluctant to accept the candy at first. In the end, Xiaohu took the candy and put it in the child's hand, and he carefully put it in his pocket.
Xiaohu had lost his initial restraint and ate one candy directly, intending to take the remaining one back to his sister.
"Thank you, educated youth sister."
Listening to the children's sweet thanks, Song Tanglan gently told them they were welcome, and then they began the work of collecting and carrying firewood.
While they were busy with their work, the two little girls also listened to the children discussing things in the village. They knew a lot of things that their sisters-in-law didn't know, such as which educated youth they saw secretly going up the mountain with whom, which child was particularly crybaby, and which family liked to beat their children.
Although Song Tanglan and Su Tao didn't know who the children they were talking about were, they still listened with great interest, listening to them talk about where there were wild fruits, which educated youth gave them candy, and what delicious food their family had eaten today.
The simplest little things sound so beautiful when told by a group of lively children, and make them feel refreshed physically and mentally while busy.
After picking up the firewood he needed, he followed the uncle pushing the cart to the threshing ground.
It only took them half an hour to collect firewood, and by the time they were in the threshing ground, they had almost finished cleaning up the prey they had hunted, skinning those that needed to be skinned and deboning those that needed to be deboned.
Except for the young ones, no one was idle in the threshing yard. Even the new educated youth were helping to wash vegetables and prepare meat. Song Tanglan saw Zhong Shuyi next to Aunt Li. She was also washing cabbage, but she had a sour expression on her face.
But think about it, they only added a little hot water to the water used to wash the vegetables in the middle of winter, and started washing the vegetables directly when it wasn't too cold. It was obvious that the girl had never done any work.
"Taotao, look who's that next to Aunt Li?"
"Oh my god, isn't that Zhong Zhiqing? Isn't she very arrogant? Why would she be so obediently washing vegetables there?"
When Su Tao saw her, he thought of the scene of fishing that day, and he couldn't help but show his thoughts on his face.
"Look at the aunts next to her."
"Hahaha, I finally understand why she's so well-behaved. With Aunt Li and the aunts from Team Three around, no matter how arrogant she is, she'll be brought into submission."
Su Tao thought about how she felt when she was dominated by her aunts before, and suddenly felt a little sympathy for Zhong Shuyi.
The third team has several powerful aunts. When they talk back to you, they never care who you are. What's more, they are very strong. If they really fight, maybe ten Zhongzhiqing can't beat them.
"Let's not go over there, let's go over there and help peel the white radish!"
"Okay, okay, I don't want to touch water in such a cold day." After saying that, he walked in the other direction.
When they arrived at the place where white radishes and potatoes were peeled, Song Tangcheng was also there helping. Seeing her sitting on the bench and chatting with the aunts in the team, he was about to go up and say hello when he saw her raise her head and say with a bright smile.
"Where have you two been just now? Come and peel radishes together."
"Here I come."
The two came over, and the aunt sitting next to Song Tangcheng made room for them and said jokingly, "You two are really pretty girls. I don't see you very often."
"That's right, I used to hear my mother-in-law talk about you guys, especially Su Zhiqing. She said you've become very capable and she would praise you every day when she got home."
"Yes, yes, if this continues, I will be disliked by my mother-in-law."
