Chapter 66

"Ha ha -" Luo Qi said, and the three laughed.

Because of the relocation of the new house, Du Xiaoli called the village head, Shi Dashi, er Qiao Mai and other villagers who often helped him to have a meal together. Everyone was a little strange. When Su Suxin was there, their life was still tight. How suddenly their brother and sister's life suddenly became better. Even the house was repaired in less than a year.

However, seeing that they are doing well, everyone is also happy for them. They are full of wine and food for a meal.

Whether in ancient times or modern times, it is a big event to check in a new house. Li Xueqing also sent a congratulatory gift, along with the gift of the county magistrate!

When the gift was delivered, we were having dinner. We were surprised to learn that it was the gift sent by the Li family, the richest businessman in Zhou county, who was the county magistrate! Even Du Xiaoli didn't know why Sun Zheng gave himself gifts. Only Luo Qi, who has recovered her memory, knows that it depends on Han Mingyi's face.

When Han Mingyi and his family left, Niu Jing said three words to Du Xiaoli about yaowanggu, and then he recovered his memory. At that time, he remembered Han Mingyi's identity - the fifth Prince of Fengming state!

People in the imperial court may not know the people in the Jianghu, but people in the Jianghu know who is in power, so he is not surprised to see sun Zheng's gifts.

No matter what the purpose of sun Zheng's gift giving is, the status of Du Xiaoli family in Du Zhuang is much higher because of this gift. After all, even the county magistrate has given them face!

Du Xiaoli gave the gift givers a red envelope and left them for dinner. Before leaving, he gave them some of the rabbits and pheasants he had developed a while ago. He said they were mountain game and brought them to the county magistrate and the Li family master to taste fresh.

When the gift givers saw Du Xiaoli so, they all left with satisfaction. After leaving, they also lamented that she was so good at doing things at a young age.

They sent off the village head and Shi Da. The three cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks. Du Xiaoli and Du Xiuheng washed the dishes, and Luo Qi cleaned the yard. After they were all cleaned up, Du Xiaoli sent Du Xiuheng away. Because today is not a holiday, but Du Xiuheng specially asked for leave to come back for the relocation of his new house.

Today, she cooked the meals at the two big tables alone. When she sent Du Xiuheng down the mountain, she was tired and was about to lie down.

It seems that the body is still not good! Du Xiaoli sighed!

As early as the beginning of November, the weather had become cold. By the end of the month, the crops and roadside grass were covered with white frost. After entering December, there was even a light snow. Unfortunately, the snow was too small to pile up. But it's not easy to have a light snow in such a warm south.

In addition to occasionally going to the county to see the situation of wine making, Du Xiaoli spent other time preparing pickled new year goods. Because she had lived in Sichuan for a long time and was familiar with the things there, she pickled and smoked meat according to the habit there, and bought pig intestines and meat to fill sausages.

"Can you eat this?" Luo Qi asked, looking at the dirty small intestine in the basin.

"Of course! You'll know when the Chinese New Year comes!" Du Xiaoli said and went to clean the pig's small intestine. It took more than half an hour to clean it with salt and vinegar. Then one end of the pig's small intestine was tied with thin thread, and then the seasoned minced meat was poured into it. It was tied with thin thread when it was about ten centimeters, and then poured down until all the pig's small intestine was used up.

After filling, she washed it again with hot water, and finally dried it with the pickled bacon.

When everything was ready, Du Xiaoli and Luo Qi went to cut some pine branches and came back. They built a high temporary stove outside the yard, hung some sausages and bacon on it, covered it with tarpaulin, lit the fire below, and then put the pine branches in. Because the pine branch was wet, white smoke soon came out of it.

"What's the use of this?" Luo Qi asked, looking at Du Xiaoli's eyes narrowed by white smoke.

"Smoked with pine branches tastes different from naturally dried bacon sausage. You'll know when you eat. Cough..." another white smoke came out from below, and Du Xiaoli's tears flowed down. She quickly got up and ran aside to wipe her tears with her sleeve. Luo Qi had handed over a blue handkerchief.

"Thank you, brother Luo Qi." Du Xiaoli took the handkerchief and wiped his eyes hard before he slowed down.

After about an hour, Du Xiaoli took out the smoked sausage and bacon and hung it with other sausage and bacon for several days.

In addition to Bacon sausage, Du Xiaoli also went to buy a lot of young goods. When they were almost ready, the weather came after the coldest.

During this period of time, Du Xiaoli didn't go out much and stayed in bed all day to practice internal power.

Laba day happened to be Du Xiuheng's eleventh birthday. Du Xiaoli and Luo Qi went to the county before noon and waited outside the school for Du Xiuheng to finish school.

"Brother!" Du Xiaoli saw Du Xiuheng coming out of the school, waved his little hand and shouted at him.

Du Xiuheng and Zhang Rui are going to have dinner together. When they see Du Xiaoli, they come quickly.

"Sister, why are you here?" Du Xiuheng asked.

"Today is your birthday. You can't go back, so we came here. I booked a private room at the same inn, and we'll go there now. Brother Zhang Rui also went to celebrate his brother's birthday." Du Xiaoli went up and took Du Xiuheng's hand and said with a smile.

"It turns out that today is Xiuheng's birthday. I didn't say it in advance, so I didn't prepare at all." Zhang Rui said. "Didn't I forget? I couldn't remember if my sister didn't come." Du Xiuheng scratched his head with some embarrassment. Du Xiaoli smiled and said, "I knew you wouldn't remember. Let's go there." the party came to Tonglai Inn, because Du Xiaoli had promised to come at this time, so the food was ready, and they began to serve as soon as they came. Du Xiuheng saw a table full of dishes and said, "sister, why did you order so many dishes? What a waste of money!" "it's rare to spend your birthday with you." Du Xiaoli said. Others didn't know, but Du Xiuheng understood what she meant. This was her first birthday to him in this world. "You eat first, I'll go down and have a look." Du Xiaoli said and went down. Du Xiuheng and Zhang Rui didn't know what she was going out to do now. After a while, Du Xiaoli came up with a bowl of Sao Zi noodles. She put the noodles in front of Du Xiuheng and said, "Happy Birthday to my brother!" it turned out that she had just gone out to make longevity noodles for herself! Du Xiuheng looked at the noodles in front of him and burst into tears. Then he wiped them off with his sleeve. "Ouch, what are you crying about in a good day!" Zhang Rui said with a smile when he saw Du Xiuheng's appearance.
