Chapter 848： Kill pigs and sheep to welcome the heroes

Chapter 848 Killing pigs and sheep to welcome the heroes

"It must be the Northern Expeditionary Army. My father and adoptive father are back!" Jiayin raised his feet and looked around excitedly.

Mu Jue heard her joy, thought about it, got up and ran away.

After a while, he came back again.

Jiayin looked at him eagerly, with hope in her eyes.

This reminded Mu Jue of a deer he saw in the mountains one time. It also had such big eyes and wet eyes, which made people feel weak.

He smiled and said: "The princess guessed it right, it is indeed the Northern Expeditionary Army. However, it was General Li Yong who led the 200 advance team, and the Marquis and others are still crossing the river."

The good news is not disappointing, as long as everyone in the family returns safely.

Earlier or later, it doesn’t matter.

Sure enough, they waited a little longer and the advance team finally arrived.

Li Yong lost a lot of weight, but became more and more brave. His whole body was like a long sword without a sheath, with a rainbow of momentum and sharp edges.

When Xu saw Jiayin standing at the shaft of the carriage waving her hands, he grinned, stepped forward and said, "Why are you here, Princess?"

"Uncle Dayong, you are back!" Jiayin smiled happily, "I went to the city with my mother for a banquet, and I met you just as I was about to return home."

When Dayong heard the word "go home", his expression became softer and he said: "I have to go to the palace to report the news. The princess will go home early and tell Huiniang for me that I will stay at the dock tomorrow." We can go back to the camp at night.”

“Okay, uncle Dayong, don’t worry, I’ll go home and report the news!” Jiayin smiled and waved his hand, and Li Yong led the advance team to the city.

Most of the people in the advance team had been to Broken Gold Beach, and they saluted the good news when they passed by.

Jiayin greeted with a smile: "Tomorrow we will kill pigs and slaughter sheep in the village. Everyone remember to come back for a celebratory drink!"

“Thank you, Princess!”

“Thank you, Princess, we will definitely go back!”

The soldiers were smiling and cheering loudly.

No matter whether they can have a celebration drink tomorrow or not, these words from the princess will make them feel warm in their hearts.

Watching the advance team enter the city, Jiayin and others quickly returned to Broken Gold Beach.

The village chief and Uncle Zhao saw the smoke from a distance and rushed to the second village to look at the official road from a distance.

Ye Shan quickly announced the good news loudly, which made the village chief and others extremely happy.

“I’m back, I’m finally back!” Uncle Zhao clapped his hands, smiling so hard that his eyes were wrinkled.

The village chief also yelled excitedly, "Hurry up and burn the barbecue house. There has been a lot of fine flour harvested in the Hot Spring Valley recently. Let's bake sesame cakes for the boys who are going home!"

“Over there in the pig pen, the big fat pigs are chosen to be hungry for a day, and their intestines will be clean and easy to clean up tomorrow. I remember that both Dayong and the Fourth General like to eat their fat intestines!

“Also, hurry up and hurry back to those dozen sheep from the mountain. We’ll kill them today and soak them in blood so they can be stewed tomorrow.”

“Otherwise, we’ll be killing pigs and sheep all at once, and we’ll be too busy!”

“Okay, I’ll go catch the sheep!”

“I’m going to the pigsty!”

Uncle Zhao and others agreed one after another and went about their business happily.

The second village was so lively that the women and children wished they could grow wings and fly to the river!

Shui Ling ran to Huiniang's house to deliver the message. Jiayin got off the car and went to grandma to tell her the good news.

As expected, Mrs. Li was also very happy and asked repeatedly: "Why isn't your mother back? She knows best what your father likes to eat, so she quickly prepared all the food in advance.

“By the way, there is still wine. Send people to the city quickly to buy wine. I’m afraid I won’t be able to get it tomorrow!

"And the Marquis's Mansion is also going to report the news. I'm afraid the chief steward is also looking forward to it!"

Hands of good news are not blocked, and grandma is allowed to make arrangements.

The old lady has been looking forward to it for more than half a year. Only by becoming so busy can she relieve her anxiety...

The new and second villages were so lively that they quickly attracted the attention of Dahuaishu and Da and Xiaowangzhuang. Jingli Zheng and others came to inquire. They were also very happy when they heard that the Northern Expeditionary Army had returned victoriously.

Soon after returning to the village, I organized people and sent a lot of winter vegetables, chickens, ducks and geese. Especially in Dahuaishu Village, I always remember that the Li family likes to eat big geese.

When they first settled in Suijintan, Mrs. Li and Tao Hongying went to the village to change.

So, this time Jingli was sending more than ten at one go.

The meat of goose is firm and chewy, much more delicious than chicken or duck.

What’s more important is that the goose produces a lot of meat, and the meat of one can equal the weight of three chickens.

Old Mrs. Li didn't refuse, left all the things from the three villages, and then invited Jing Lizheng and others to come for a celebratory drink tomorrow.

When Tao Hongying came back from the city in a hurry, Huiniang and Sister-in-law Liu were already rolling up their sleeves and leading the women in the village to boil water and remove the goose feathers.

A little maid opened her pockets and smiled while collecting all kinds of fine lint, not wanting to waste any of it.

This is also the custom in the village.

No matter who eats chicken, duck or goose, they will save the down.

If there were two or three taels, they were sent to the Li family.

Jiayin’s needlework in the past two years has mostly consisted of sewing down pants, down jackets, and even down quilts.

The young and old men in the family, from Li Zhensheng to Brother Mao, seem to be wearing thin clothes in winter. In fact, they all have down pants and down vests in their robes. They are not cold at all, and they do not look bulky.

It was a down quilt specially made for Mrs. Li, but it was disliked.

It is said that covering the body is not as practical as a cotton quilt...

Tao Hongying couldn’t hide the joy on her face. She entered the room and spoke a few words to the old lady before joining the busy team.

As a result, Huiniang said: "Sister-in-law, we can do these tasks.

"Go and have a look at the baking room. Xiaocui is leading people to bake sesame cakes. They are not good at it. I heard that a whole plate has been burned!"

Tao Hongying felt sorry for the food when she heard it, and quickly took her maid Xia Qing to the second village...

Jiayin also wants to help, and she even wants to find some delicious food for her father and adoptive father.

In the past two years, the family has been prosperous and prosperous, and she no longer needs to subsidize the family privately.

Therefore, there are very few rabbits, chickens, ducks and geese in the space, and there are only three or four large white pigs. Jiayin treats them more as playmates than their food value.

Just like the three little foxes and the little green snake, they have become an indispensable part of the space.

Most of the fields are planted with medicinal materials, and the rest are vegetables and green corn.

If you think about it, you can pick more fresh fruits.

  Prepare more common things like apples, pears, and oranges for the soldiers.

The other rare bananas and peaches are for my adoptive father and dad to eat freshly in private...

But these are not big jobs, and they will be finished in a short time.

So, she became the king of children again as usual, taking over the stars, Yue Yaer, the twins from Hui's family, the naughty boys from Liu's family, and even the infant Yuanyuan.

The backyard immediately became the children's world.

Playing football, building snowmen, and skipping ropes all made a lot of noise, and also gave the children and women valuable freedom...

Early on the next morning, Mrs. Li rushed to eat quickly, and then the whole family changed into their best clothes, happily got in the car, and headed for the city.

The best private room on the second floor of Cyclamen has been vacated, and tea and snacks have been placed, waiting for the masters to arrive.

Cyclamen Cyclamen is right next to the main street. It is the only way from the city gate to the palace. It is the best place to wait for the Northern Expeditionary Army to return after victory.

The remaining private rooms were also booked at high prices and were crowded with guests, the most numerous of whom were actually women and girls who had not yet left the government!
