Xue Dafu, Liu Guixia, and Li Hehua went as well, but they would be back earlier today. That was because they had to come back to kill the chicken.
In the morning, the family had already asked the person who went to town today to buy meat, but that person had not come back yet. He would probably be back in the afternoon, so there would naturally be more vegetables in the evening than in the afternoon.
Yu Hongyan carried a basket of vegetable stems to the pig pen at the back to feed the pigs. The vegetables were picked by Li Hehua in the wild when she left in the morning. The two sisters-in-law liked this little pig very much and wanted to raise it until it was big and fat so that they could celebrate New Year with it.
Xue Yifu was still working and making something under the shed.
Jiang Yue wanted to take an afternoon nap, but she didn't feel like sleeping, so she continued to sit on the threshold with Xue Yan.
