Chen Ruolan gestured to the village butcher and said, "We want these two pieces of land, here and here. Please, Uncle Wang."

The old man was waiting for someone from the Lu family to come. He raised his knife and chopped off the meat along the place where Chen Ruolan pointed. He put it directly into the basket that Chen Ruolan brought without weighing it.

"Okay, take it home."

Chen Ruolan: "Okay, thank you Uncle Wang, we'll go back first."

The old man waved his hand.

Start chopping the whole wild boar into pieces.

These will be mixed together, weighed, and distributed to other people later.

What Chen Ruolan was gesturing for was a piece of pork shoulder and some pork ribs.

"Jiaojiao, how do you know the meat in this area is delicious?"

It was Li Jiaojiao who told her to choose the meat here. In the past, they always shared it with everyone and took whatever they got.

But even if you buy it yourself, you will buy fat and lean ones.

Li Jiaojiao patiently explained: "Because wild boars live in the wild, their meat has a certain gamey and fishy smell, which is not easy to handle."

"But if you grill it, you can solve this problem. And the two pieces we selected are the best places to grill them."

Although her practical ability is not good, her knowledge reserves are good.

Grilling is a very common and simple way of grilling. Just skewer the raw meat with wooden sticks, then put it over the fire and grill it, turning it constantly in your hands until the meat is grilled all over and cooked.

She remembered that there were a lot of fruit wood in the backyard, which was used for barbecue, and it smelled so good.

Fragrant, sizzling barbecue, here I come...

Li Jiaojiao has outdoor barbecue equipment, but she will take it out.

The most outrageous thing she had done so far was taking tea leaves out of her sleeve in front of Lu Liang's master.

She changed the packaging of the tea and asked Old Man Lin to make her many wooden boxes of different sizes for her convenience.

The sleeves are also wide enough for storage.

The only thing she missed was that she and Lu Liang had close contact, so...

On the twenty-seventh day of the lunar year, I went to the big market in town.

Buy some fresh fish, meat, and vegetables as well as some melon seeds, snacks, candies, etc. to have a wonderful New Year, and also buy some things you will need for traveling after the New Year.

It would take about a month to travel from Qingshan Village to the capital by horse carriage if nothing unexpected happened.

Lu Liang will be going on a scientific expedition in February, so they need to set off after the Chinese New Year.

So you need to prepare some things for the journey.

Water bags for storing water, tents, dry food, herbs, etc.

In case you can't make it to the place where supplies are supplied, you may have to spend the night outside.

Qingshan Town.

On the twenty-seventh day of the lunar year, the market became colorful.

There were cloth flowers, spring couplets, and lanterns of various bright colors. People passing by had also changed into clean and festive clothes, and on the children's heads, the same red headbands fluttered in the wind.

The most popular stall at the fair is the one selling chickens dressed as chicken puppets. If you buy a New Year chicken, everything will be auspicious.

When Li Jiaojiao and her friends arrived, there were only a few chickens left in the cages, and they were all sold out in a short while.

The Lu family members all thought of the two old hens that had been laying eggs desperately since they entered the house, so that they could not finish all the eggs every day.

Thinking about slaughtering them for the New Year, everyone drooled with reluctance...

Chen Ruolan bought a string of candied haws for the twins and Li Jiaojiao.

Lu Lin and Lu Lan: "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Li Jiaojiao: “…….”

She doesn’t really want...

Lu Liang looked at Li Jiaojiao's speechless expression, lowered his eyes and smiled softly.

……

People shuttled through the crowded crowd, from one end of the street to the other and then to another street.

Especially the two children, they would go up to take a look at whatever excitement was going on.

Li Jiaojiao suddenly felt a little sad. Walking on the busy street, she felt like she was traveling through her past and present lives.

It seemed like she really couldn't go back.

Lu Liang narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the slender figure in the crowd, his eyes were heavy...

On New Year’s Eve, Qingshan Village finally welcomed the first snow of the new year.

The sky was gray and snowflakes were falling. The mountains not far away were already covered with a layer of white.

When Li Jiaojiao pushed the door open, the snowman made by Lu Lin and Lu Lan in the yard had already taken shape.

Li Jiaojiao was awakened by the sound of firecrackers in the village.

Today she changed into a smoky green dress that Lu Liang bought for her in Baiyun Town. Her long hair was tied up at the back with a headband of the same color.

Li Jiaojiao was particularly happy today because her special powers had finally awakened after more than half a month of slumber.

Looking down at the green grass full of vitality on her wrist, Li Jiaojiao slowly curled the corners of her mouth. It’s so nice.

This was the scene Lu Liang saw when he came out of the kitchen.

The snowflakes all over the sky formed a curtain. On the other side of the curtain, a cool and beautiful lady was standing in the corridor. She lowered her head and smiled slightly. Her hair was gently fluttering in the breeze mixed with snowflakes.

Lu Liang rubbed his fingers hanging in his sleeves, walked over, and handed Li Jiaojiao a hot water bottle, "Warm your hands."

Li Jiaojiao took it with both hands and rubbed it on her cheek: "Thank you."

"Second brother, second sister-in-law, breakfast is ready."

Lu Lan shouted from the corridor of the main hall.

The two of them walked towards the main hall.

There were steaming dumplings and plump white glutinous rice balls on the table.

After breakfast, everyone began to divide the work and prepare the New Year’s Eve dinner.

Li Jiaojiao saw that everyone had work to do, so she rolled up her sleeves and came forward, tilting her head and asking, "Sister-in-law, what can I do?"

Chen Ruolan kept chopping vegetables and replied, "Don't come over. There's no need for so many people. You're weak. Go back to your room and rest."

After a pause, he added, "Ah-Ying, stop working and go back with Jiaojiao. I'll call you later."

Li Jiaojiao: “…….”

Lu Liang put down the firewood in his hand, clapped his hands and stood up, and Bai Ze immediately went over to take over.

"If my sister-in-law asks you to go back, then just go back. You're helping by not causing trouble here." Lu Liang said with a smile.

Li Jiaojiao: “…….”

How did she cause trouble?

Li Jiaojiao looked at the small kitchen and realized there was almost no room to step. Well, it was a bit messy.

"Okay." Li Jiaojiao turned and walked out.

She went back to see what New Year gifts she should prepare for everyone.

Lu Liang also came out of the kitchen, but he just stood in the corridor, watching the falling snow in the yard, and did not go into the house.

Li Jiaojiao returned to the room, looked at the figure in the corridor, and slowly closed the door.

Now that her powers have been restored, she can see clearly into people's hearts...

Li Jiaojiao returned to the room and her consciousness circled the space. She didn't find anything suitable, so she paused, then simply dodged and entered the space.

Just at the moment when Li Jiaojiao disappeared.

The person who was watching the snow in the corridor suddenly had his pupils trembled, and then flew onto the roof.
