New Year's Eve has arrived.
This year there were no bandits, and those serving labor duties have returned home. The autumn harvest was a bumper crop, and the village has added a water mill factory, allowing many people to earn wages.
In the twelfth month, everyone collectively bought pigs to slaughter, stored them until New Year's Eve, no longer needing to hold back. They brought out the good meat and vegetables, and every household was filled with the aroma of meat, making the children salivate.
Early in the morning, Jinbao and Jinhua came to deliver tofu to Qin Yao's family. He and Mrs. Zhang made it, using soybeans harvested from the fields this year, with an especially rich bean fragrance.
The tofu that Liu Ji previously had Da Lang buy was far inferior to that made at the family compound.
