While the dumplings were being steamed, Chen Zixuan put vinegar on them to steam and heat them up.

It feels different at dozens of degrees below zero, everything is solidified.

Even the peanut oil has solidified and can be poured out, but vinegar is a bit difficult.

In about half an hour, Chen Zixuan took out six plates, filled them with dumplings, and each person picked up twenty.

The gay men may have eaten more, so Chen Zixuan took another hundred and kept them indoors, just because he was worried that everyone would not have enough to eat and would freeze to death if he went outside to take them.

"It smells so good. This is my first time eating mutton dumplings."

Some people find it unpleasant when they eat mutton for the first time, it’s too tangy, and some people just love the smell.

Chen Zixuan really likes this smell, but I don't know if Zhang Yunxi likes it. If two people can't eat one piece, how can they cover themselves with the same quilt?

Everyone says that two kinds of people cannot be covered under the same quilt. In fact, there is a certain truth.

Chen Zixuan carefully observed Zhang Yunxi in private and found that she was eating happily.

"Yunxi, is it delicious?"

When asked suddenly, Zhang Yunxi had not yet swallowed the dumpling in her mouth, so she quickly chewed it a few times and then swallowed it.

“It’s delicious, the taste is just right, not salty nor bland, and the mutton smell is not that strong.”

If the smell of mutton is too strong, she won't eat it very much. She can still accept it, but she doesn't like it very much.

"As long as it tastes good, keep making it if you like it next time."

Anyway, he can roll out the dough and make stuffing, but he can't make it. Zhang Yunxi can make it.

"Yeah."

After eating a meal of dumplings, Zhang Yunxi really couldn't eat so many. She only ate ten of each type and shared the rest with Chen Zixuan.

"These are untouched. Let's eat them for you. I can't eat any more."

Zhang Yunxi touched her belly and quickly said, "It's easy to feel full if you eat too much.

After taking it, Chen Zixuan actually had almost eaten, and Lin Jun and Li Jie looked like they could continue eating.

I gave another plate to the two of them. After eating, I was about to put things away when I suddenly heard the captain's voice.

"Today the village will kill pigs and share the pork. Everyone should go to the square to help as soon as possible and wear thick clothes."

Hearing this, Chen Zixuan was a little strange. It was just noon. Isn't it usually the morning when pigs are killed?

"Why kill a pig at noon?"

Chen Zixuan looked at Zhang Yunxi and thought she would know what her father was thinking. Unexpectedly, she also looked confused.

No one is very clear about Zhang Hongguo's decision. She came here very early.

But after thinking about the situation in previous years, it was almost this time, and the pigs were killed on the day before the Little New Year.

It turns out that before she knew it, tomorrow would be the New Year's Eve, and she had forgotten all this time.

Thinking back to the Laba Festival, she seemed to have not eaten Laba porridge yet, and she and Chen Zixuan were not together at that time, but it had already passed.

"What's wrong? You look sad?"

Chen Zixuan seemed to notice that Zhang Yunxi's mood was not quite right, and she seemed to be in a low mood.

I asked out of curiosity, and then I realized that this was what happened.

Isn’t it Laba porridge? Chen Zixuan has never had the habit of celebrating Laba Festival before, so naturally he doesn’t know much about these things.

But since Zhang Yunxi likes it, it doesn't matter. He can actually cook it, so he just divides a lot of whole grains, mixes them together and cooks them slowly.

In addition, Chen Zixuan also has a lot of brown sugar. When paired with brown sugar, it will be cooked into a glutinous rice cake, which is particularly delicious.

"I'll cook it for you tomorrow, okay? Cook more, and I'll celebrate the Laba Festival with you every year from now on."

I don’t know if these words were meant to comfort Zhang Yunxi, which made her feel much better.

Everyone jumped for joy. Seeing her mood improving, Chen Zixuan was also very happy.

He couldn't help but reached out and touched her black hair. Lin Jun and Li Jie looked a little shocked.

But they can still eat some Laba porridge, it's sweet, who doesn't like it.

"Let's go and see how the pigs are slaughtered and the pork divided. I don't know how many work points we can get this year."

In fact, Chen Zixuan is also very clear about his own work points, and he probably can’t divide them much.

Chen Zixuan was lazy at the beginning. Later he went to work in the county. How could he still have enough work points?

It’s already amazing to be able to get two kilograms of pork.

A group of people walked to the square.

I happened to see six pigs being carried out. There were only six pigs raised in the village.

Chen Zixuan was a little curious, could he get so much pork if he raised so many?

He cautiously approached Zhang Yunxi and asked curiously.

But I didn’t expect to see Zhang Yunxi smiling angrily. How could Chen Zixuan be so simple?

"You are thinking too much. We have to divide a part of our food and hand it over to the public, let alone the pork. We all pay one pig and keep one. If we raise six pigs, we have to hand over three pigs."

Give the head to Gongzhong."

It turns out that when raising pigs, you still have to hand over one and keep the other.

This was the first time Chen Zixuan heard about it, and he thought, after all, it was impossible to keep all the pork for himself.

I thought too much about this idea, so I smiled sheepishly.

"I understand. Should your family share more pork? Your brother and your father are both capable of working."

In fact, the grain and pork allocated to Zhang Hong's family are quite small, not as good as those of other families in the village.

Almost everyone in the other families has full work points. Except for the children, some children still have four or five work points when they go to collect pig grass and raise pigs.

Unlike their family, they are tolerant of children, as long as they go to work, no matter how many work points it is.

Then, since their two brothers don’t do farm work, the eldest brother, sister-in-law, and her parents do the work.

Even if everyone has full work points, it won’t be much. The whole family works in the fields.

But this means that you don’t see any money for a year, unlike their family, who have a salary every month.

So why else would everyone be envious of their family? It’s not because of this.

"I understand, that's what it is."

Chen Zixuan almost forgot that the two brothers in Zhang Yunxi's family worked in the commune, and their wages were good.

"I went over to help first."

Chen Zixuan saw Zhang Hongguo struggling to lift the pig up, and quickly went over to help.

Zhang Yunli also drove a tractor over to deliver three of the pigs to the town.

The pigs raised this year are actually quite good, and they are all fat, weighing about 200 kilograms each.

In the past few years, people had lost a lot of weight and were about to be released after weighing more than 100 pounds.
