"What is this for?"

"I don't know either. My father and I just caught a goose. She was sitting on a small stool and watching it well. When we tied the goose's wings and feet with straw, her father took out a kitchen knife and she suddenly

She screamed, then rushed over and hugged the goose's neck. Fortunately, I was wearing gloves to hold its head, otherwise I would have just bitten her."

Ye Yaodong looked inexplicably as he watched Ye Xiaoxi continue to hug the goose's neck and cry and scream, with tears already covering his face.

"You can't kill Bai Bai~my Bai Bai~"

"When did her relationship with Big White Goose become so good?"

Lin Xiuqing also felt confused, "I don't know either."

The old lady said cheerfully: "I guess she chased the goose back to its nest after me every day and drove out the relationship. I couldn't bear to let it be killed."

"Bai Bai~555~Don't kill~"

"Hurry up and take her away..." Father Ye held the knife and was at a loss as to what to do, with a face full of laughter and tears. "If these other children should be shouting happily that they have meat to eat, this girl's movie is quite funny."

"No, no~"

Ye Xiaoxi held the big goose's neck with one hand, and tried to hit Ye's father with the other hand, but couldn't reach it, so he could only wave it in mid-air several times, with tears on his face. It was funny no matter how you looked at it.

The adults nearby also laughed.

Lin Xiuqing reached out to hug him, but she held the goose's neck tightly with both hands and refused to let go.

"Stop making trouble, I'll kill him and stew the meat for you tonight."

"Don't eat in vain~Don't eat, it will harm others (bad people)..."

She stretched out her hand to hit Lin Xiuqing again.

Everyone looked helpless and funny at the same time.

"Take it away, just don't let her see it..."

"No~no~" Ye Xiaoxi screamed again heartbreakingly.

Ye Yaodong had a headache just looking at it, "How can we kill it? Otherwise, kill the chicken? The ducks have all gone to the beach. It's hard to catch them before they return to their nests at night."

"No, my cock~ducky~"

"You are a girl and you don't have a penis." Ye Chengyang said from the side.

"My cock!"

"You can't kill anyone?"

Ye Xiaoxi was still holding the big goose with tears in her eyes. She looked up at Ye Yaodong and nodded, "Can't kill."

"Then what should I do? If I don't kill, there will be no meat to eat at night."

"Can't kill~"

Ye Yaodong looked at Lin Xiuqing and asked her what to do.

"Why are you looking at me? I have no idea. Who asked you to kill her in front of her?"

"I didn't know she would be like this. She would cry like this after killing a goose. I don't know if I would cry like this after I die."

"I don't know if she would cry like this after she died. Anyway, when the green chick Chenghu raised last year died, she cried profusely. They even found a place to bury it and inserted it.

Three sticks of incense, save your own snacks and return them to it as an offering. Whether to kill or not is up to you."

Ye Yaodong looked at Ye Chenghu, who also smiled and said, "Dad, you..."

"Shut up, I didn't ask you anything."

He had already anticipated what Ye Chenghu was going to say, so he interrupted him in advance, and then looked at Ye Xiaoxi.

"Then let's not kill him. Is it okay to kill someone else's family?"

Ye Xiaoxi nodded quickly with tears in her eyes.

"Then let go."

Only then did she let go of her hand willingly, but she still stood there and watched vigilantly.

"Then can I lock it up first and let you play with it for a while?"

She nodded.

"Then wipe your tears and nose, it's so dirty."

She quickly stretched out her arms and wiped the tears and snot from her face on her sleeves. Lin Xiuqing didn't have time to stop her, so she just looked at her shiny sleeves with a look of disgust on her face.

"Can't you give her a wipe?"

"How can I have so many hands? Am I still holding on to the big white goose? If I let go, the big white goose will bite me."

Father Ye looked at him speechlessly, "Then we really don't want to kill him? What are we going to eat tonight? We won't kill chickens or ducks. They will be spoiled by you. If they are so little old, you won't kill them if you say they won't kill them."

, when she gets older and wants stars, you can also climb up to the sky and pick them for her."

"Ahem!" Ye Yaodong winked at his father.

Delaying things! Father Ye glanced at him angrily, then glanced at Xiao Xiao, who was eyeing him eagerly, so he had no choice but to go into the house first with the knife in hand.

Ye Xiaoxi was still staring at the spot. He also obeyed her wishes, took the bamboo basket on the side and directly covered the goose under it.

"Is this okay?"

Ye Xiaoxi nodded with satisfaction, "Okay."

He shook his head and went into the house first, and then said to Father Ye: "We'll kill her later when she's not paying attention or when she goes out to play."

"Um."

Lin Xiuqing also entered the room and continued working.

Ye Yaodong came to her side and watched as she took the kitchen knife and started to chop the fish meat, "Are you making fish balls?"

"Yes, Ah Cai brought two big mackerels over in the morning, so I just thought about fishing pellets and making a pot that I could eat for a few days, so as not to eat them all after cooking them at night and not go out to sea for the next few days.

If there is no fish to eat, you can chop it up if you have nothing to do."

"Alright."

Ye Xiaoxi felt relieved when she saw that the big white goose was fine, and then she squatted in front of it and muttered, not knowing what to say, and patted the bamboo basket from time to time.

It was almost Chinese New Year, and the old lady was the most idle in the family, so she sat at the door and looked at her.

It wasn't until she heard the sound of firecrackers set off by children outside that she was attracted, got up and ran outside, and then joined in the crazy running.

The old lady quickly knocked on the window to tell the news, "Hurry up, hurry up, Xiaojiu ran out to play. If you want to kill the goose, kill it quickly."

Ye Yaodong immediately wiped off the fish paste on the knife surface, wiped it with a rag, and then came out with the knife. He and Ye's father quickly took the basket away, and then killed the goose neatly and bled it.

During this period, the old lady stood outside the courtyard gate to relax, looking at Ye Xiaoxi.

It's obviously the Chinese New Year, and it's normal to kill chickens, ducks, and geese. Every household does this. But his family acted like thieves. They had to kill the children when they weren't around, and someone had to watch at the door.

"Be smart, the water in the pot is ready." The old lady stretched her neck and looked into the wind, urging the father and son in the yard.

Father Ye muttered helplessly, "It's like killing someone else's goose. Why don't you eat it as usual when it's served at night? Maybe it tastes better than anyone else's."

"That's different. If you don't see it, you don't know what kind of meat it is. When you come back later and see it's gone, take her to the back door to see. There are three more at the back door."

"Hurry up and scald it with boiling water to pluck it out. It will take a while to pluck out the hair for such a big one. Don't let her see it, otherwise it will roll on the floor crying."

The father and son really acted like thieves. They even plucking the hair together and quickly killed the enemy. They also kept their ears open to listen to what was going on outside.

Fortunately, their house has a small courtyard enclosed, so the inside cannot be seen from the outside.

By the time Ye Xiaoxi was tired from running outside and wanted to come back to find her mother, the father and son had already finished cleaning the battlefield, and the goose had also been stripped of its feathers and placed in a bucket. It was then carried to the table to ensure that she could not see any shadow.

"Where's Bai Bai?"

"My Baibai?"

"A Tai, where is Bai Bai?"

Ye Xiaoxi rummaged around the yard, searching everywhere. He searched every basket, even the dog's kennel. He grabbed the little black dogs inside and pulled them out by the dog's head, then put his head in to look for them.

"It's at the back door, put it at the back door." The old lady smiled and slowly stepped forward to lead her, "I'll take you to see it."

Ye Xiaoxi followed the old lady to the back door with doubtful eyes.

Ye Yaodong sat on a chair with his legs crossed and watched TV, watching her being cheated with a smile on his face.

She saw several big geese strolling leisurely by the back door, and she was indeed satisfied. After taking a look, she ran out to play again, not knowing that one was missing.

It wasn't until the New Year's Eve dinner was served in the afternoon, when Ye Chenghu said that goose meat was delicious, that she burst into tears again.

"No, Bai Bai is here."

"We have five in our family. Dad killed one a few days ago and another one today."

"No~" Ye Xiaoxi retorted stubbornly with tears in her eyes.

Ye Yaodong glared at his eldest son, "I can't even stop your mouth with food. Which of your eyes saw us killing the goose?"

"Really, I saw the goose feathers you picked up. The pot on the table is goose meat."
