After the villagers took away the pig-killing dishes, the remaining dinner belonged to the Lin family.

Grandpa Lin also invited some of the villagers who had good relations with him to have dinner with him, but when everyone saw that the pig-killing meal was so sumptuous, they felt embarrassed to stay for dinner.

So during dinner, all the people at the Lin family’s dinner table were family members, and of course, several people from my great-grandfather’s family were also considered family members.

Guangdan thought that his great-grandfather's family was really nice. If they were some top-notch relatives, he would have inquired about them a long time ago. Whether it was pickles or braised food, he would have had some ideas about it.

But as far as Guangdan's observation is concerned, this family, at least on the surface, does not seem to have any thoughts. They always stay close to their family as always, but there is a boundary.

Guangdan even thought that the genes of the ancestors of this branch of the Lin family were very good, because the cousins ​​from his great-grandfather's family were not cunning people.

In fact, everyone has tasted Lin’s braised food many times, but this is the first time to try this braised duck.

Guangdan specially asked his mother to show her knife skills, cutting the braised duck into thin slices and arranging them on a plate, so that everyone in the family could taste it.

Because there were so many people, one duck was just enough for a taste. Guangdan felt that he should not have listened to his second sister.

It’s just that my second sister has a strong desire to control poultry, which makes Guangdan helpless.

The braised duck was a success in everyone's mouths, and Guangdan was also very satisfied. He decided to tie up six ducks at night while it was still dark.

It was to be shipped to the county town tomorrow morning along with the pork, and along with it was a can of spicy cabbage. This was only to be sold to my uncle and aunt, because although Guangdan had bought chili powder, it was already winter when he came back from the capital, so there was not enough cabbage at home.

This results in the inability to grow kimchi on a large scale, but it does not prevent Guangdan from making some for his own consumption.

Compared to the spicy taste, this sweet and spicy taste seems to be more popular with everyone, at least the Lin family likes it, especially the little ones.

The next morning was exceptionally cold, but the city had to be visited anyway, so Lin Daniu put on a fur coat and a fur hat to fully arm himself.

Guangdan was drowsy and confused in the ox cart holding the hand warmer. Yes, he was carried onto the ox cart by his old father before he was fully awake.

The father and son went out at dawn. On the way, Lin Daniu took two guests to the town and earned a few cents.

It seems that Lin Daniu is an experienced worker. This surprised Guangdaner. After all, his old father was unwilling to set up a stall, so why would he be willing to be a driver?

Little did he know that these two things were different in Lin Daniu's eyes.

Setting up a stall is setting up a stall, but is being a rickshaw driver the same as being a rickshaw driver?

Of course not!

Being a coachman means we have cows!

At this time, the mountain road was no longer muddy. The cow's feet made a crunching sound on the snow. Guangdan was shaken by the cow and did not wake up until mid-morning.

Lin Daniu wanted to chat with his old father as soon as possible to prevent him from getting sleepy due to fatigue driving, but it turned out that he didn't want to chat at all.

Guangdan: I really want to do this for Xue!!!

(You can’t just say you fed the dog, right?)

It was already afternoon when we arrived at Lijia Village. Second Aunt was still the only one in the yard. From afar, we could see a wisp of smoke rising from the kitchen chimney.

Usually in the afternoon, Cao Lian braises meat in the kitchen, preparing the braised food to be sold at the stall the next day.

The people around have also gotten used to the daily aroma. Cao Lian is not stingy and sometimes gives some of the marinade to the neighbors, saying that it is for the kids to mix with rice and let them taste it.

Hearing some noise in the yard, Cao Lian came out and saw that it was Lin Daniu and Guangdan. She immediately wiped her hands and came to greet them.

He was overjoyed to see Lin Daniu carrying a large side of pork from the ox cart.

"Did your family kill a pig?" Cao Lian said as she reached out to pick up the pork, but was directly rejected by Lin Daniu.

"Well, I killed one and brought the meat to you to make braised meat to sell." Guangdan said with a smile showing his small white teeth.

"That's great. Pork is not cheap at the end of the year! And everyone wants pork, not offal or pig heads! Everyone wants to eat something good during the New Year!"

As Cao Lian spoke, she began to move the duck with its feet tied up into the house in some confusion.

"Guangdan, what are you going to do with these ducks?" Cao Lian asked curiously after settling the six ducks.

So Guangdan told Cao Lian in detail about how they had eaten braised duck last night, which made Cao Lian's eyes light up again.

Their braised food stall was quite popular for a while, but now there are other braised food stalls nearby. She has been racking her brains these days to think of some new ideas!

This braised duck is just fine!

"Then I'll do it this afternoon and braise two to try tomorrow morning?" Cao Lian said excitedly.

"Sure, I'll help you this afternoon. When does your second uncle usually get home?"

"It was evening. Your second uncle was still selling at the same place in the morning. In the afternoon, there were fewer people there, so he moved to another place. He also sold more here than before."

Cao Lian couldn't stop smiling as he spoke, this spirit and energy was incomparable to before!

I have to say that making money makes people happy!!!

But when I think about the temperature of more than ten degrees below zero, the cold wind outside and the occasional snow, I realize that it is really hard to earn this money.

But Guangdan also knew that for the Lin family, hard work is the least they fear. What they fear is not making any money despite working hard.

Now that they finally found a way, Uncle Lin and his wife have completely focused their minds on making money.

Thinking of these bare eggs, I looked at Second Aunt's hands. Sure enough, every finger was red and swollen, and there were cracks, and the flesh inside was faintly visible.

"Aunt, your hands hurt, right? Do you use the frostbite cream I brought you every day?" Guangdan felt his heart ache as he watched.

"I'm using it. It's fine, except that it itches at night!" Cao Lian rubbed her hands embarrassedly and quickly hid her hands.

Fang Cuihua, grandmother, and my aunt Erya all had frostbite on their hands, including my own. But not to the extent of Second Aunt, where the flesh was really cracked.

When Guangdan saw his second uncle, younger uncle, best friend and eldest brother in the evening, his heart ached again.

It has been such a short time since we last saw each other, and the skin on everyone's faces has been frozen, rotten, red, purple, black, and cracked.

Even if you have the best frostbite cream, it won’t heal if you stay outside in the cold every day!
