"What else? Does the magistrate care? " Song Xintong asked in surprise.

Aunt Zhu said, "I don't know. No one dares to go to the county government to sue him. Besides, he is also a village head. He is in charge of many things for us. We can't do it openly."

It's true, just like Wan village head of Taohua village, no matter how hunky Mrs. Zhang is, she doesn't dare to fight against him. What's more, Xu village head of Xinghua village is so hateful. If they are put on small shoes, the villagers have no place to talk.

As soon as they came, they directly picked up the local snake, but she didn't want them. Anyway, if they were not in the village, they couldn't control her. I just hope you don't feel sick when you look at the people in this village.

Soon it was Youshi, and the sun was in the West. Daya came back with a bundle of firewood and a strong fat sheep in her hand.

"Sister, sister, you see we've caught the rabbit again." When the twins lifted the branches from the basket, they could see that there were four or five rabbits nesting in it. "We caught them. We blocked a rabbit hole."

Dabao excitedly said: "we smoke them, smoke them, and they all run into the basket."

Xiaobao also quickly cut in and said: "but there are still a few running from the other hole, we didn't catch them."

"It's great to catch so much." Song Xintong took a wet handkerchief to wipe their faces. "The duck egg and the little chrysanthemum also caught, didn't they?"

Duck's egg and little chrysanthemum are also sweating, but their eyes are bright. They are very happy and nod: "it's better to catch rabbits like this than to dig traps."

Duck egg said: "Dabao Xiaobao, we'll go again tomorrow. I also know that there are some places with that kind of holes, and there must be rabbits in them."

"Good, good." Twins want to catch more rabbits, which will be raised in the rabbit house.

Song Xintong said: "only you children can't go, and you can't play with fire. You must have adults with you."

"I know that without adults, if there is a fire, we can't put it out, it will burn all the trees on the mountain." Xiaobao said.

Dabao nodded: "sister Daya is with us."

"Girl, do you want to roast the sheep or how to make it?" Daya has peeled the big fat sheep, leaving the bloody fresh mutton. It's a ram, especially strong.

"It's all baked." Xiao Bao couldn't help drooling when he thought of the roast mutton he ate last winter.

"There's so much to eat." Looking at such a big sheep, aunt Zhu was very happy. "She has already cooked so many dishes. Just make some soup for Xintong."

"As for the rest, you might as well take it and sell it. It's a rare thing. Maybe you can sell it for a lot of silver." Zhu said.

"Zhu a Nai, do you think anyone in the town is willing to pay for it?" Song Xintong said: "the weather is not long, it's better to stew a soup, then fry another one, and then bake the rest."

Aunt Zhu looked at it and said, "that's not enough."

"You can call some of Zhu's brothers, and then call Zhu's relatives." Now it's so hot that I can't hold it at all. The meat in the well yesterday tastes a little worse today. I'd better cook it all.

At the moment, song Xintong especially missed the relatively cool weather in Taohua village. He could keep the meat in the well for at least two days. Unlike Xinghua village, it was the top of the sky in one day.

"You can call your brother Zhu's family. A few men have gone out to help, just a few women's families. Our family and your aunt's relatives are separated by several villages. If it's a little far away, you don't have to call them." Aunt Zhu looked at the meat and calculated, "that's too much. Put the rest into the well."

"This meat can't be put. It will be broken if it is put. It's better to take two or three Jin back to the masters one by one later, and give some to Mr. Yin Yang in the town, as well as Zhu ainai and his aunt's relatives." Song Xintong thought about it and then said, "one point will be gone."

Aunt Zhu said, "after the division, there will be no food tomorrow."

"It's OK. Daya will go to the mountain tomorrow." Song Xintong can understand aunt Zhu's psychology, but it's not cost-effective to put the meat bad, so it's better to eat it separately. At least after eating it, you can make up your body. "Zhu's milk, and the meat are also made together. It smells a little delicious at noon."

"I should have bought less yesterday. Fortunately, there were only two or three catties left."

"Well." Song Xintong didn't expect that it would break so fast. Ah, it's a waste. It's better to have an ice cellar.

Do what you say.

All the washed sheep's heads, bones and miscellaneous things were put into the pot and cooked. There was no fresh radish this day, but aunt Zhu had sun dried radish strips and bamboo shoots. She put them together and cooked them. In less than half an hour, the fresh flavor of the soup came out.

Daya has already roasted mutton in the yard. It's about 70 or 80 Jin, because it's not the whole lamb. It's all cut into sections, and it won't take long to roast.

Song Xintong can cook and help watch the fire, while Daya goes to the town to invite the gentleman to come with him. Meanwhile, Zhu Dazhu's daughter-in-law also comes back to help cook. When she learns that she is going to send a few kilos of mutton to her mother's house, she is so happy that she doesn't care to wash her hands and feet. She runs to her mother's house several villages apart with the piece.

Zhu's daughter-in-law's family and Zhu's family belong to the same village, so Zhu's daughter-in-law sent them back together.

It was almost dark, and the food was ready. Uncle Zhu and the masons who worked in the cemetery came home slowly. As soon as they entered the house, they smelled the smell of roast mutton, and their saliva began to flow down.

Next to several cheeky women are standing at the door looking inside, "Oh, feed your family what to eat, so fragrant, smell saliva all come."

As soon as song Xintong indicated, aunt Zhu sent a large bowl of mutton soup mixed with mutton to several neighbors living nearby. "This is the song hunter's granddaughter. They bought it back. You have a good mouth. It's specially for you. It's a big bowl full of meat."

Several family members with a bowl of mutton soup are laughing, "this can't be funny?"

"If you're embarrassed, take it." Aunt Zhu said to several people, "in fact, village head Xu was to blame for everything. If it wasn't for them, we might have had a better life."

"It's not true. That family will go to hell in the future." A few women who got the benefit couldn't help saying.

"That's right. We don't have to make trouble for village head Xu and song hunter's family. In the future, we'll ask the young people of our family to apologize. I'll kneel down, elder. It's nothing. Song hunter's granddaughter doesn't have to ask you old women to go, right?" Said Aunt Zhu.

A few women think about it. They are about the same age as song hunter, but their sons should call song hunter. They should say uncle. Originally, the younger should kneel down and the older should, "that's OK. I'll talk to others then."

"Thank you very much."

"What's the matter? What they did was wrong."
