Chapter 316: Lost Dog

Several villagers did not hesitate, jumped into the pool, caught a few drinkers and threw them ashore.

The clothes of the drinkers were hanging nearby. They were taken off and wrapped up, and then they were carried out of the valley.

The fat drinker was still shouting at the top of his lungs, but Li Laosi slapped him on the head, and he immediately passed out, scaring the other people into shutting up.

Li Laoer led others to clean up the wine bottles and bones, and finally saluted the other guests with a smile.

"Everyone, our valley is not careful enough. We let such evil guests come in and ruin your elegance. In this way, you can taste the fruits of our valley first and take a good bath in the hot springs. At noon, the family kills the pigs and stews the northern The most authentic local pig-killing dish. If you don’t mind it, come and try it.”

"Mr. 2, you're too polite. It's just a small matter." A regular customer responded, and others nodded.

Li Laoer saluted and apologized again, and then retreated.

Soon, a boy brought a fruit plate.

 There are no particularly rare fruits in the fruit plate, just apples and pears, peeled and cut into pieces, and tied with thin wooden sticks.

But in this season, it is not easy to keep the fruit so fresh.

The guests took one bite and felt it was particularly refreshing and sweet.

Someone laughed and said, "This golden beach is really a bit magical, and I like it more and more."

“Haha, me too. Although people open their doors to welcome guests just to make money, they really do it in a wise way.”

“Yes, I like this confidence. I won’t bully anyone, and I won’t be afraid of anyone.”

“Those idiots just now have lost your master! They didn’t ask who’s property this is before they came here?”

"You saw it just now, that man lifted the big bluestone directly. He was really strong. Why didn't such a man go on an expedition with the Marquis?"

"How do you know you didn't go? That person just now is the fourth son of the Li family. It is said that the Li family saved the life of the Marquis. Previously, the Marquis was seriously injured and was recuperated in the Li family. This time the Marquis went on an expedition, and this fourth master Li was with him. I went, I guess I came back to visit relatives today, and I was caught up by those idiots just now. "

"What a coincidence? Haha, it gave us a lot of fun."

Let's not talk about what's going on in the valley, just say that in the Li family's yard, the meat is divided when the meat needs to be divided, and the fire is lit when the fire needs to be made. It is still busy.

Jiayin was woken up and finally got up with a yawn. When she turned around, she saw that Mrs. Cui was guarding her while doing needlework.

“Senior aunt.” Jiayin called out softly.

“Fu Niu is awake!” Mrs. Cui put down her sewing basket and pushed it far away for fear of pricking the child. Then she hugged Jiayin and kissed her little face gently.

“We are butchering pigs at home. Your grandma and your mother are busy. My aunt will help you wash your face and then eat the meat, okay?”

“Okay, thank you, sister-in-law.” Jiayin smiled and hurriedly got dressed and went to the ground.

After washing up, the whole family went out and saw Mrs. Li standing in front of the big chopping board.

On the chopping board, strips of pork are neatly arranged. Each strip is about the same size, weighing about two kilograms. This is distributed to each family in the village.

There are two extra pieces of five or six kilograms, which are prepared to be sent to the Liu family and Mr. Wen.

Seeing that her granddaughter had woken up, Mrs. Li quickly bent down and picked her up. Then she said to Mrs. Cui, "While you are here, I won't send pork to your village. On the contrary, the Liu family and Mr. Wen's will give it to me." If you have anything, please bring it along with me."

Mrs. Cui blushed. Seeing that there were no outsiders around, she said, "Just in time, I made two pairs of shoes and a gown for my senior brother, and brought them to him together. In addition, from the Liu family, I brought two embroidery books that she likes to my sister-in-law. book."

“Sure, you take care of the arrangements.”

The two were discussing, and when they heard the good news, Cat Brother and the others seemed to be outside the yard, so they struggled to the ground and ran out. It turned out that the naughty boys, Brother Cat, didn't even have time to put down their schoolbags, so they kicked pig urine at the door and made a lot of noise.

Jiayin watched the fun with a smile and had no intention of joining in.

With her small arms and legs, if one of her falls, she will easily become the second ball...

At the time of the excitement, two carriages suddenly came running from the other side of the valley at a very fast speed. The children were startled and hurriedly hid in front of the door.

Jiaan and Jiaxi tucked Brother Cat behind their backs, then hugged their sister and protected them in their arms.

The carriage rushed past almost in the blink of an eye, accidentally crushing the pig's urine bubble, making the naughty boy scream in anger.

It happened that the village chief and Li Laoer came back. Seeing the children like this, they smiled and said, "This is a small matter, don't argue. I will ask your husband to go to the city tomorrow and buy some sheepskin balls. You will have nothing to do from now on." You can play!”

“Seriously?” The boys were so happy that they immediately forgot about the trivial matter.

Li Laosi hugged his daughter and told the village chief and his second brother, "These people are not allowed to make appointments in the future, and they are not allowed to come to our valley again!"

"Don't worry, I'm afraid they won't have the guts to come again." Li Laoer waved his hand, "It's a busy day at home, so let's not talk about it for now. I'll make inquiries later."

Everyone nodded and let it go.

In the kitchen, several women were accompanying Tao Hongying, and they were very busy.

The family still eats pork-killing vegetables and steamed buns with noodles as usual, but Li Laosi and Li Yong have to go back to the dock after dinner, and they always have to bring something to eat for the Marquis and the soldiers and brothers they have become friends with.

So, Tao Hongying made two more basins of noodles and planned to steam 200 steamed buns. It has noodles, meat, and vegetables. It tastes good and is filling.

Soon, Li Yong and his wife came, and Hui Niang also joined the team of making buns.

When the sun rises above the head, the food is ready.

Everyone in the village, young and old, held a large pottery bowl, filled with sauerkraut stewed in bone broth, large slices of meat and blood sausage, and two large steamed buns skewered on chopsticks.

 Find a sunny and sheltered place to squat down, eat, drink and chat, it is extremely satisfying.

Jiayin also joined in the fun and brought a small bowl. In the bowl was the meat picked from the bones by the old lady, and a big soft bun.

She squatted next to her father, eating while listening to her father talk about little things about the military camp on the dock.

Previously, the Marquis used retreat to advance and completely tamed the short-sighted old guys in the court.

Now the military pay is fully paid, the military rations are sufficient, and most of the weapons and equipment have been replaced with new ones, which is enough to support the 20,000-horse expedition for two or three months.

And if everything goes well, when the Marquis returns from the expedition, the corn and potato seedlings will also grow to one foot high.

It will take another three or two months for the barbarians to regain their strength, and it will be autumn, and it will be time for a good harvest of corn and potatoes.

By then, the entire Tianwu will know that with high-yield food, national strength can be quickly restored, and there is absolutely hope for regaining Jiangbei. All the forces from top to bottom will be united, waiting for a counterattack.

Both civil and military officials and emperors, they all paid special attention to several judgments in history books.

Half of Tianwu’s empire was lost in their hands.

If they can be snatched back, they can still save some face, otherwise, in the history books, they will be just lost dogs and incompetent waste!
