"It's still early, it's the tenth day of April." Li Qingqing said, blushing involuntarily.
There are still four months to go, so it is indeed too early to tell now.
"I understand, sister Qingqing, don't worry. No matter how busy I am, I will definitely spare a few hours for you." Song Xi didn't look at the calendar and didn't know what day the tenth day of April was.
, and I don’t know if I will be free at that time.
But if you don't have time, you can ask for leave.
"Sister Qingqing, my students are still waiting for me at the entrance of the commune! I have to go find them, otherwise something happens and I can't bear the responsibility, so I will go back first."
After bidding farewell to Li Qingqing, Song Xi went straight to the market outside the commune.
There were already a lot of people in the market at this time. It was almost Chinese New Year, and everyone wanted to come out and see if they could get what they needed.
But the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the prices of many things in the market have increased. However, it can be seen with the naked eye that there are more things in the market this time. Everyone wants to take advantage of this time to make more money.
Song Xi bought one hundred catties of winter bamboo shoots, fifty catties of loach, and seventy catties of eel.
Fifteen pounds of peanuts, three hundred and fifty pounds of sweet potatoes, and seven hundred and twenty pounds of potatoes.
She also bought 1,500 kilograms of corn and fish, including all the fish from several stalls.
She knows that everyone wants to have a good year, and she also has money, so she just wants to be a money-spreading boy!
Song Xi also encountered two live pheasants, five hares, and two hedgehogs, and she captured them all.
But after returning to Ping'an Village, she released the hedgehog because she didn't want to eat it.
She can accept pheasants and hares, but she really can't accept hedgehogs.
Zhou Ping, Mo Jiaxiang, Sheng Jia and the three of them each gave Song Xi twenty yuan, saying that they would take care of the New Year's Eve dinner at home before having it at their house.
Song Xi felt that the New Year's Eve dinner for three people was indeed a bit too deserted and she could let them join in, so she agreed.
Song Xi queued up at the pork stall set up here at the Meat Factory. Since there was no meat, let’s buy offal!
Song Xi directly bought ten pig trotters, thirty-seven kilograms, fifty kilograms of bones, twenty kilograms of pig blood, twenty kilograms of pig liver, twenty kilograms of pig intestines, ten pig heart and lungs, which is almost thirteen
She looks like she's weighing 5 pounds. Anyway, someone will help her wash it, so she can just do it.
After Song Xi finished shopping, she didn't meet the man who bought the red coral necklace last time. It seemed that he didn't have anything in his hand for the time being. Maybe he was blocked by something and couldn't come over.
Song Xi stopped paying attention to this matter. After she bought the things, she went to find some students selling vegetables.
The education she received during this period was not a waste, and the students were not petty. They did not panic when facing strangers, but did quite well. Song Xi stood aside and watched.
Song Xi waited until the vegetables in everyone's baskets were sold out before going over and asked, "How is it? Is it sold out?"
"Teacher Song, we are all sold out." The children all ran over, handed the money to Song Xi, and looked up at Song Xi, as if begging for praise.
"Well, you guys are really great." Song Xi gave each of them one yuan and collected the rest.
I went back and asked the village chief what to do with the money. Should the school keep it or hand it over to the village collective.
Although it's not much, only a few dozen yuan, if word spreads about it, someone will definitely cause trouble. There are a few lazy people in every village who like to mess around.
The children were very happy after getting the money and ran forward happily. In the end, only the three children of Xu Yunying's family, Zhou Xiaoshu, Zhou Xiaohua and Mo Jingxiang were left with Song Xi.
There was nothing to buy, so everyone went to find Xu Yunying and Aunt Li, and then went home together.
When he got home, it was just after 12 noon. Zhou Yi was eating noodles in the kitchen. When he saw Song Xi coming back, he hurriedly asked, "Daughter-in-law, you came back very early today. You haven't eaten yet? I'll cook it for you."
Can I eat noodles?"
"No need, I bought some food and came back." Song Xi put down her backpack, took out two oil paper bags and handed them to Zhou Yi.
Then he took the pig intestines and pig heart and lungs to the well, fetched a bucket of water, and soaked them in a wooden basin.
Through the oil-paper bag, Zhou Yi could feel the temperature inside and knew that there was food inside, so he quickly opened the oil-paper bag.
One is filled with white and soft buns, and the other is filled with fragrant chicken.
He couldn't tell whether it was roasted chicken or roasted chicken.
Zhou Yi cut up the cooked chicken, put it on a plate, and brought it to the table. Song Xi took four packets of instant seaweed and egg drop soup and made a large bowl of soup. Then she sat down opposite Zhou Yi and ate with Zhou Yi.
Song Xi said while eating steamed buns, "I bought a lot of good things at the market today, including fifty kilograms of loach, seventy kilograms of eel, two pheasants, and two hares. I plan to raise the pheasants and hares.
In this way, we can really live a life of eating meat every day."
"It is best to keep this hare alone for a few days, and then raise it with the previous hare after it becomes familiar with it." Rabbits will attack unfamiliar rabbits when they see them.
The attack will not stop unless one leaves or cannot pose a threat to it.
"I know." Song Xi naturally knows these things. Even unfamiliar pet cats will fight to death if they are put together, let alone a powerful hare!
Rabbits' teeth are so powerful that they can break a human hand bone, so they cannot be kept together.
After a while, looking at Zhou Yi who was hesitant to speak, Song Xi stopped chewing the buns and said, "What are you doing? Is there anything that is so difficult to say? Is it possible to think..."
"What are you thinking about?" Zhou Yi gently flicked Song Xi's forehead with his finger. Looking at her joking eyes, he knew that she didn't have anything good in her mind.
He has no plans to change his wife in this life and the next. "This morning, a winter hunting meeting was held in the cafeteria. The village chief selected a total of thirty young adults, including the four of us."
"Is there also winter hunting here?" Song Xi's eyes widened and she looked at Zhou Yi in disbelief.
She had read many historical articles and knew that winter fishing and hunting were popular in the north, but she didn't expect that they were also practiced here. "Is it dangerous?"
"We are not in the north here. There are no big and deadly black bears and tigers. There are wolves, but we have more people and strength, so dealing with wolves is not a big problem."
Zhou Yi said, then moved to Song Xi's side, stretched out his hand to take her into his arms, "Don't worry, your man will come back intact. Just be careful when you are alone at home during these three days.
Just sleep in the flower room!"
When he was at home, Zhou Dazhu dared to come over and take a peek, so when he was not at home, it was inevitable that someone would be thinking.
The one he was most worried about was Song Xi, but they and the other hunting experts had to go. After all, this was related to collective interests.
