Chapter 1358: New Year's gift
Chapter 1358 New Year's Gift
"You forgot what happened last year?"
"Last year?" Mi Shi recalled for a moment, and was suddenly surprised: "You mean the wolves are going down the mountain?"
Li Zheng nodded: "Yeah, the village was hit by a disaster last year, and everyone didn't buy so much meat back, and every household raised more than half of the chickens, ducks, geese, etc. that were less than this year, so they all led the wolves down from the mountains. "
"Every household has stocked a lot of meat this year, and raised several times more poultry than last year. Most people want to take care of their bodies, and the smell of meat wafts in the house every day. And this year's weather is cold and early, I feel It's colder than last year, and the wolves are probably the same as last year, they can't find food in the forest, so they smell the fragrance and come to the village to forage."
Thinking of some chickens, ducks and geese that she followed to buy, Mrs. Mi couldn't help but mention it, and said with a look of apprehension: "What you said is indeed possible, so what should we do this year?"
Li Zheng shook his head: "I can't do anything right now, if the wolves really come down the mountain, we can only hide in the house like last year, the poultry outside, if they die, they will die, and use them in exchange for our Life is not a bad thing."
Mi's thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "Why don't we go and ask Aran, her black hair is very powerful, I have heard people say that even if a wolf sees a black hair, he must avoid it, and the black hair must be useful. of."
"Didn't you say before that wild beasts use feces to determine their territory? Black hair should be the same. It is convenient for him to surround the village. If other beasts smell it, they will know that it is black hair's territory. In this way, our village Isn't it safe?"
Li Zhengdao said: "I have already thought about this, and I have also looked for A Ran. After all, this is the easiest way, but A Ran is not sure if it will work, and Hei Mao has a limited number of bowel movements a day. It's very big, she can only make Hei Mao try his best. After all, if he can't pull it out, he can't force it. And it has been snowing a lot recently, and it is estimated that it will be covered by snow just after it is finished, and that will not have much effect. "
Mi said: "You're right, why don't you ask Kuro Mao to go around?"
"This..." Li Zheng thought about it for a while, but shook his head: "These are just our guesses. And so far, we haven't heard wolf howls or other beasts at night. It's like a family, and this kind of shadowless thing doesn't bother Heimao anymore. I heard that Heimao is also very afraid of cold, and stays by the charcoal basin in winter, and probably doesn't want to go out, if it hurts, or something else Mistake, Aran will definitely hate me."
Mi's nodded: "You are right, then I will listen to you, and stay put for the time being."
"Um."
For the next few days, the village was still peaceful and nothing dangerous happened.
As New Year's Eve approached, Murong Lingran's family was also full of people. Just like last year, many families gathered to give them New Year's gifts.
The first thing I came to was the New Year's Eve at the Marquis of Ning'an. In addition to the latest designs of silk and satin, precious tea leaves, some famous calligraphy and paintings, and antique jades, there were also some food to eat, either abalone, ginseng, fin belly or bird's nest and fish bones. Cordyceps sinensis, all are extremely precious.
To their surprise, the Hou Mansion had prepared six sets of clothes for each of them, and the workmanship was extremely delicate.
