Before the official arrival of spring, the forty-nine-day ban on slaughtering was finally lifted.
Candidates can finally eat a non-vegetarian meal before entering the examination room.
Qin Yao waved her hand, "Awang, go buy a whole pig!"
"Can't you finish it, master?" Yin Le asked in shock.
Awang doesn't care about this, and his wife will never go east to west.
He took away the stones that were sunbathing in the courtyard and used them as strong men. He then hitched up a cart and headed out of the city.
As soon as the butcher's stalls in the city come out, they are robbed by ladies and daughters-in-law who want to get a whole pig, which is something you can't even think about in the city these days.
So I can only go outside the city and buy it from a merchant who specializes in raising pigs.
It also depends on luck, you may not be able to buy it.
After not eating meat for two months, the eyes of the people in the city glowed green when they saw living things.
Qi Xianguan couldn't think about the braised pork, braised pork, steamed fish, roast chicken, and boiled chicken made by Awang, and his mouth would water when he thought about it again!
Turning to look at Qin Yao, who was lying on a bamboo mat under the shade of a tree, drinking milk tea from a straw, she asked:
"Is Madam planning to deliver meat to the candidates in the Qin Mansion?"
Qin Yao gave him a look of admiration that was smart like yours, and nodded lightly:
"I will be admitted the day after tomorrow. I am not allowed to leave the examination room for three consecutive days. How can I survive without eating some meat?"
"Ale, Ma Yang will be back soon. Remember to ask him to wait for Awang and the others to come back and get the meat before going back."
After Liu Ji retreated, Ma Yang seemed to have a sense of crisis and offered to move to Yongtongfang to avoid running back and forth between the two sides.
Moreover, there will be another wave of candidates there after the new year, and the learning atmosphere is good, so he is also preparing for the final sprint.
Since Dalang left, Liu Ji, a noisy man, has been shutting himself up in the study every day.
Qin Yao felt that the house was not as lively as before.
Fortunately, Yin Le, Liu Fei, Qi Xianguan and others were able to gather at a table to play Pai Gow, otherwise this life would have been really boring.
But now most shops have reopened, and after spring, there will be fewer people at home.
Erlang's temper is becoming more and more dull now, as if nothing can arouse his interest except reading.
Sanlang and Siniang are still lively and cute.
But the child now has a new playmate and no longer clings to his father and mother.
Looking at the white clouds floating in the sky, Qin Yao took a sip of the cool goat milk tea, and suddenly had the illusion that at the age of twenty-three, she had entered the daily routine of retirement in advance.
Sure enough, you can't be too idle.
Qin Yao looked around.
Qi Xianguan was playing chess with himself.
Yin Le went out to chat with the old lady of the Wang family.
Liu Fei went out early in the morning to clean up the shop, preparing to reopen it after spring.
So, she is the only one who is very free?
Qin Yao suddenly got up from the mat, passed by Qi Xianguan, who was fascinated by her chess game, and came to the door of the study.
The door was closed and the window was wide open.
Qin Yao walked slowly to the window, and when she raised her eyes, she could see Liu Ji with his head hanging on his head and his thorns in his buttocks.
Who said he was useless?
Isn't this quite hard work?
The people in the room seemed to have devoted themselves to the world in the book. Qin Yao stood in front of the window for a full quarter of an hour without even raising his head.
It wasn't until Qin Yao couldn't hold it in anymore and coughed twice that the person in the window suddenly raised his head.
"Lady?"
Liu Ji's eyes lit up little by little, and his movements were a bit large.
Qin Yao watched helplessly as the awl was nailed to the chair and quickly approached him.
"Alas~" Qin Yao sighed silently, quickly stretched out her hand, and pulled Liu Ji up who was leaning on the awl.
There was a table between the two of them, staring at each other with big eyes.
Qin Yao glanced up and down at the people in front of her, her brows gradually furrowed. The dark eye circles, messy hair, thin cheeks, and scrawled beard are all ugly.
Qin Yao let go of her hand, leaned on the window sill, and reached out to fiddle with the books on the table.
Not good looking, not interesting.
He stopped holding his hand angrily and asked, "Aren't you ready to leave seclusion yet?"
Liu Ji chuckled and said, "Since my wife came to call me, she must leave the seclusion."
The corners of Qin Yao's lips curled up with satisfaction, and she pointed at his messed up beard and hair in the room, "Take care of it, I'll treat you to a big dinner tonight."
Liu Ji: "Okay!"
Qin Yao glanced at him again, tsked and shook her head, not seeing him for a month, and evolved directly in the direction of the savage.
Liu Ji said earnestly: "Madam, let me see you off!"
As soon as he took a step forward, his scalp was pulled by the hemp rope tied around his head.
Immediately, screams like slaughtering pigs came from the house.
Qin Yao holds her forehead.
Afraid of losing my hearing, I pushed open the door, walked in, and freed someone's hair from the hemp rope.
"This retreat was very hard, but don't be so isolated next time."
Qin Yao finished speaking earnestly and went to the kitchen.
She first boiled the hot water, sharpened the knife, and then killed the pig when Awang came back.
Awang is still reliable in his work.
Within an hour of going out, he brought back the big fat pig that Qin Yao wanted.
Two big men, Shitou and Awang, pressed the pig against the door panel. Qin Yao held a knife. The white knife went in and the red knife came out. The fat pig died peacefully.
After receiving a large basin of pig blood, Qin Yao divided out half of it and half a fan of pork, asking Ma Yang to take it to Yongtongfang.
The rest is sorted, the best meat is selected, and the family makes pig-killing vegetables for consumption.
Liu Ji, who was on a vegetarian diet and in solitary confinement, abstaining from oral **** for a full month, cleaned himself up and came to the kitchen, his eyes glowed green just by looking at the raw pork.
When the tender pork stewed in the pot was served to the table, I just wanted to plunge my head into it.
Top-quality ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods.
The soup base is made from pork bones, and thick and evenly cut pork legs are placed in it. It is boiled over high heat, with tofu and vegetables, and rice. Qin Yao can eat five bowls in one sitting.
No one spoke at all at the dinner table.
Adults and children ate hard.
It had been a long time since he opened his stomach to eat meat, and Saburo's happy tears fell uncontrollably from the corners of his mouth.
After finishing a pig-killing meal, I moved onto a chair and went to the courtyard to enjoy some fresh air and eat. There was no need to chat or think about anything. It was completely relaxing, not to mention how comfortable it was.
The tense atmosphere surrounding the scientific examination did not affect Liu Ji at all.
After eating and drinking well and having a good night's sleep, I woke up and started packing the things I wanted to bring into the examination room.
Qin Yao didn't need to worry about this kind of thing. Liu Fei had already asked about the 'three-day comfortable living guide in the examination room'.
There are three magic weapons.
First: a toilet with a large capacity and excellent sealing, and a stack of soft and comfortable toilet paper.
It allows a candidate to be in a clean and fresh environment throughout the three-day exam, increasing the probability of extraordinary performance.
Second: A delicious and easy-to-storage dry food can not only satisfy the candidates' appetite during the scientific examination, but also save the candidates' time for cooking, allowing them to focus all their time on answering questions.
Third: A robe that is large and comfortable, can be worn and used as a quilt, directly determines the candidate's high-quality mental state during these three days.
"With these three magic weapons, third brother, just concentrate on answering the questions!"
At the end of Yinshi (around 4:40 in the morning), before entering the examination room.
Liu Fei solemnly handed the prepared magic weapon to Liu Ji. (End of chapter)
