Chen Xi smiled. "I guess so. If Tuantuan wants to make cured meat, then let's do it. It's not like we're busy at home anyway."
It was true they weren't busy at home. Since Tan You usually had to be at the workshop, she had no time to clean the house. So, a group of aunties in the village had spontaneously organized a team to go door-to-door, cleaning for people.
It was like a rudimentary housekeeping service. As long as a household paid a small fee in silver coins, the women would clean the place until it was spotless.
As a result, with no chores to do at home, Tan You and the children had more free time.
So now, the children were busy making cured meat while Tan You carried two large pig heads into the kitchen. She was usually too busy; when would she have had time to make braised dishes?
Now that she finally had some free time, and with the New Year approaching, Tan You decided to make something a little different.
