After unloading the piglets, Old Man Li unloaded the cow's frame and said to Li Yan, "You two take a break first. I'll take the cow out to eat some grass!"
Old man Li walked around the village with the calf in full spirit. Soon, all the villagers in Lijia Village knew that the old Li family had bought a cow.
Originally, the patriarch's family in Lijia Village had only one old yellow cow. Now, Old Man Li's family raised a young and strong calf, and this matter caused an uproar in the village.
Farming is a strenuous job. With this cow, plowing and harrowing the fields can save a lot of effort.
Most people in the village just felt envious, and a few were even jealous!
After Mr. Li left, Li Yan told her eldest cousin what had happened at home during this period.
Li Jianmin took a long time to digest it before he re-examined the little cousin in front of him. Since when did the family gradually get better? It seemed that it was all thanks to the cousin in front of him!
Li Yan and Li Jianmin returned home. When the little cousin Maomao saw his elder brother, he happily jumped into Li Jianmin's arms.
Mrs. Wu and her aunt hadn't seen their eldest grandson for a long time, so they gathered around him and talked for a long time!
After the few people exchanged greetings, Wu asked Li Yan, "I only heard you say you were going to look at the livestock this morning. Why did you buy all this at once?"
Li Yan told Wu what happened today. When her aunt heard that the piglet was given to her for free, she felt very regretful. She said that if she had known earlier, she would not have divided the family. Now these good things have nothing to do with her. Liu felt very upset.
Li Jianmin just sat at home for a while, ate a bowl of egg noodles made with his own milk, and then hurried to the town.
Before leaving, he made an appointment with Li Yan that starting from tomorrow, he would let Mr. Zhao go to Piaoxianglou to get leftovers.
Li Yan returned home, found two large wooden barrels, and went down the mountain again.
At this time, Old Man Zhao and his family were busy preparing fodder for pigs and sheep.
In just half a day, the originally empty courtyard was filled with the breath of life.
Old Man Zhao's mood was different from yesterday. At this moment, he felt extremely at ease!
From what he inquired, he learned that Miss Li's father was not only a scholar, but also worked for the county magistrate in the county government office.
With Miss Li, my whole family will no longer have to wander around, suffer from hunger, and have no idea where to eat!
When Mr. Zhao saw Li Yan coming, he stopped what he was doing and asked respectfully, "Miss Li, do you have any instructions?"
Li Yan smiled and said, "Uncle Zhao, tomorrow I'll have to trouble you and Uncle Zhao to drive the ox cart to Piaoxiang Restaurant in town. I've already made an agreement with the restaurant owner. You'll go and bring back the restaurant's leftovers to feed the pigs!"
Old Man Zhao perked up immediately after hearing this. These ten piglets had a lot of appetite. He had just instructed his granddaughters to go to the mountain to collect pig grass. However, even if both of his granddaughters went up the mountain to collect pig grass every day, it might not be enough for the ten piglets!
Now after hearing what Li Yan said, Old Man Zhao nodded in agreement hurriedly.
Li Yan gave a few more instructions before returning home.
Mrs. Lin looked at her daughter who had been busy all day and said distressedly, "You've been running around all day and haven't eaten a single bite. Are you hungry? Mommy will roll some noodles for you!"
Li Yan was indeed hungry at this time, so she quickly nodded in agreement.
After finishing a large bowl of hand-rolled noodles, Lin said to her daughter, "Mother knows you are doing this for the good of the family, but it's a pity that I can't help you!"
Li Yan: "Mom, if you believe in your daughter and the decisions she makes, that will be the greatest help to me!"
Mrs. Lin looked at her tired daughter and finally didn't say the words of refusal.
