Chapter 57 - Chapter 57: The Unchanged Purpose of the Small Courtyard

After years of unremitting efforts, five acres of land have now been harvested.

  The potatoes were packed into more than a dozen sacks and thrown directly into the warehouse.

  Corn is also turned into corn kernels, and some are even ground into corn meal.

  Just thinking about the sweet corn tortillas will make you hungry.

  But no, this corn flour is prepared for so many mouths in the small courtyard, and it doesn't belong to her at all!

  The four little piglets are not well fed on weekdays. Most of the time, they are thrown in a few cabbages to deal with them.

  So, they don't grow very fast.

  Half a year later, I am still only eighty or ninety pounds, which is very pitiful.

  In the future, with cornmeal, we can actually gain weight.

  However, if you want to eat meat, you can't.

  There were four little piglets. When I bought them, I specially picked two males and two females.

  Daji, who comes from the countryside of his hometown, are all native pigs raised by fellow villagers nearby.

  Not as fast as those specially bred for fattening pigs, but the meat is more fragrant.

  Even the boar has not been bred and has maintained its fertility.

  I look forward to good news and take good care of him for another two years.

  The two young piglets will fall in love and have children.

  If her children have more children, she will have endless pork to eat.

  Just thinking about it makes me excited!

  The four little pigs didn't know that because of their fertility, they escaped the fate of being knifed soon...

  Those ducks and geese were also pretty good.

  I run around every day, find myself some snacks to eat, and I am satisfied with some vegetables and leaves.

  One egg a day, and occasionally one egg every two days.

  A group of model workers have already filled the Li family's salted egg jar with two.

  It was the chicks who lived the happiest life.

  The two roosters, each with a harem of seven or eight hens, could half fly with their wings. They often ran to the fields behind to steal corn to eat, and each ate smoothly.

  It was only the beginning of spring, and already some hens had laid down more than twenty eggs.

  It's hard to believe that within a month, there will be dozens of fluffy chicks in the courtyard.

  This is why Jiayin held back her saliva and never thought of killing chickens except to replenish her mother's health on the way to escape.

  Long-term planning and sustainable development are the courtyard's unchanging purpose.

  Now I am just waiting for my family to start planting land, and then I will plant three acres of sorghum, one acre of potatoes, and one acre of corn.

  Sorghum supplements the family's field output, and potatoes and corn are used to feed chickens and pigs.

  Corn stalks and corn husks can both make fire.

  It will come in handy when the time comes to cook cooked food for the pigs.

  In addition to these, Jiayin also added a big job to himself, which was to find stones around the five acres of land, and even removed all the stones for the courtyard wall behind.

  She cleaned all the stones and placed them in the middle of the yard. The most conspicuous location is also the most accessible location.

  This is the self-protection method she prepared for herself, but unfortunately, she hasn't had the chance to practice it now.

  Otherwise, she wanted to try to see if she could move the stones out.

  It's best to appear at an altitude of more than ten meters and land on the target.

  Not to mention a human, a cow can be killed immediately.

  I have to say that Wu Ergou secretly took her to the casino, which still left a shadow on her heart.

  She didn't want to experience that powerless fear again...

  Season is a magical thing. A few years ago, the cold wind cut her face and she was too cold to hold it.

  But as soon as the New Year is over, within a month, the weather changes drastically.

  The cold wind is gentler and the sun is brighter and warmer.

  On the hillside and on the ground, the snow melted rapidly, returning the original color of the sky and the earth, faintly filled with vitality.

  The boys were not allowed to go to the river. From time to time, those who were disobedient would have their ears picked up and beaten until they screamed.

  The Li family doesn't have to do this, because the lessons learned by Jiaxi and Jiaan are so profound that they have a long memory.

  The ten acres of land purchased by the Li family had been abandoned for two years and had a lot of weeds growing on it.

  The brothers of the Li family had taken some work early and went to the fields to cut grass and burn wasteland.

  Jiaren has already started school, and he has brought the food prepared by his family, as well as the change for the three months of spring training and food.

  Jiayi was taken away by Liu Biaotou before the first month of the year.

  I heard it's not far this time, and you can make a round trip in a month.    

  Jia Huan followed her mother Zhao Yuru and aunt Tao Hongying and went out to cook the stove twice more.

  He is now a qualified kitchen helper, a good hand at chopping and preparing vegetables.

  After Tao Hongying discussed with Zhao Yuru, Jia Huan often started cooking at home.

  Don't worry about whether it tastes good or not, it's all our own, no one picks it.

  Calculating this, there are not many people who can work in the fields. Only the second child, the third child, and the fourth child were left, along with the two boys Jiaxi and Jiaan.

  Fortunately, the Li family only bought ten acres of land.

  With the innate power of Li Laosi, one person can stand up to three people, so he is quite busy.

  The people in the village were not in a hurry at first, but when they saw the Li family taking action, they all became busy.

  Jiayin was rolling around in the room anxiously, it was so boring.

  She wants to go out!

  But the weather outside was still too cold for a little baby like her.

  Mrs. Li was very guarded and would never let her granddaughter leave her eyes for a moment, not even Tao Hongying.

  Even breastfeeding has to be done in the house, and Tao Hongying is happy with this.

  I have to say that the loss of the child left a shadow on the family.

  Jiayin had no choice but to practice crawling hard.

  But who will tell her why she has to climb up like a frog and kick her legs hard to run farther?

  This posture is too ugly and not suitable for a beautiful girl like her!

  Jiaxi Jiaan ran in from outside. Seeing that her sister was flushed with exhaustion, she couldn't help but step forward to tease her.

  "Haha, sister is like a big toad."

  "Sister, work harder, yes, kick your legs, kick your legs!"

  Seeing that her granddaughter turned over and became motionless, Mrs. Li guessed that she was angry, so she quickly yelled at her grandchildren.

  "Are you following me to the fields? You are as dirty as mud monkeys, why don't you go and wash yourself!"

  Jiaxi Jiaan ran out in a hurry, making noises and being extremely naughty.

  Mrs. Li hugged her granddaughter and coaxed her.

  "Fu Niu'er, don't be angry. Grandma will take you out to bask in the sun."

  Jiayin immediately became happy and danced.

  She has been trapped in the house for a month, but she is suffocating her to death.

  After Mrs. Li wrapped the good news into a cotton ball, Mr. Li, who had entered the city, also came back.

  He drove the village chief's donkey cart and said loudly with a smile.

  "Mom, I bought sorghum seeds and millet. There are many more people in the city than before, and everyone is busy farming."

  Mrs. Li stepped forward to take a look and smiled.

  "As the days pass, people are starting to get busy. Whether this year will be good or not depends on spring. No one dares to be lazy."

  Jiayin looked straight at the bags of grain and seeds on the donkey cart, her eyes shining brightly.

  There are no sorghum seeds in the fields in her small courtyard.

  It's hard to say that I will become a thief again.

  Li Laoer carried the seeds into the warehouse and was about to return the donkey cart.

  Mrs. Li checked the inventory at home and kept it.

  Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiayin stretched out her little hand and put the bag of fine seeds into the space.

  Mrs. Li turned around and was startled by the empty ground.

  Where are the grain bags?

  She looked around but couldn't find it anywhere.

  Looking at the smiling granddaughter, there is nothing else I don't understand.

  She lowered her voice and asked her granddaughter secretly, "Fu Niu'er, do you want the seeds to be useful?"

  "Ah." Jiayin responded.

  "Are these enough? Do you want your second uncle to buy more?"

  "Ah, ah."

  "What about the millet and vegetable seeds? Do you want them too?"

  The grandfather and grandson were busy answering questions, but Li Lao Er was busy. Go and come back.

  He shouted in the courtyard, "Mom, the village chief and some old men are here."

  Mrs. Li quickly took Jiayin and went out. Sure enough, the village chief and some old men next door were all in the yard.

  This is obviously something to say!
