The Sweet Little Fulang - Chapter 194
Lu Gu went home alone, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard brother Xiaoling crying in the room.
Shen Yan was standing at the door of the kitchen to peel a wilted pear. There were two soft, rotten black spots on the pear. They were not very big. She took the knife and cut them out. When she heard the child crying, she quickly put it down. Lu Gu came back from outside, so he smiled and said, “Brother Guzi, then you go, I got juice on my hands.”
The last time I bought a lot of pears, they either wilted or developed black scars after a long time. These days they were peeled and gouged out, so this is the only one left to eat.
“Well, you’re busy.” Lu Gu hurriedly walked into the room, took Xiao Lingjun out of the bed, and with a little probing, he felt wet on the doll’s pants and wet the bed again.
“It’s a lot of water.” He first hugged the child and coaxed him in his arms. He reached out and took the clean pants and diapers from the chair next to the bed, and laughed and joked with Xiao Linger, saying, “It’s a shame. Mu and Dad are not on the bed, or they will run away for you.”
Brother Xiaoling couldn’t understand, so the cry a few times gradually stopped.
Lu Gu took out the child’s wet diaper and saw that he was no longer crying, so he put it on the bed and changed clothes. Seeing that the hem of his shirt was also wet, he simply took it off and wiped Xiaoling with his shirt. buttocks and legs, and then quickly dressed.
“I urinated again.” Shen Yan walked in while nibbling on the pears. Looking at the quilt that was lifted, she said vaguely: “Fortunately, today is a good day. I washed it for a day, and it will be dry in time for tomorrow.”
“That’s not it.” Lu Gu smiled and saw that she was eating pears, so he didn’t let him hug her. He put Brother Xiaoling in the wooden cradle beside the bed and let him lie down first, and then he took off the bed.
Thanks to their many mattresses, there are at least two thick cotton mattresses in a room, and two or three thin cotton mattresses each. This was something that Lu Gu never dared to think about before. He only had one broken quilt, let alone changing it , it would be nice to have a wrap in winter.
He opened the box and took out the quilts that were dried last time and spread them one by one. Shen Yan was lying on the wooden cradle and playing with Xiaolingjun. She was holding a pear in her hand. The arm wants to grab.
“This.” Shen Yan shook the pear in her hand, her tongue pressed against her upper jaw and made a squeak. She laughed, “You can’t eat it, you can only watch my aunt eat it.”
Lu Gu was making the bed when he heard a smile and said, “You can be greedy for him, I don’t care if you cry later, you can coax yourself.”
Children are like this, no matter Zhao’er or Lingjun, they can’t see adults’ mouths move. Once adults eat, they want to eat, and they cry if they don’t. I have had Zhao’er’s experience first, and Ji Qiuyue can’t eat a milk baby. When it comes to eating snacks, he always carries Zhao’er on his back, and Lu Gu doesn’t eat in front of Lingjun much now.
“Forget it. The two of them are better than the other. I can’t coax me when I cry.” After the two nephews were crying, Shen Yan was smart. Eat it, and don’t let Xiaoling see it.
After nibbling on the remaining pears, she went outside to wash the milk fruit for Brother Xiaoling.
Lu Gu made the bed, and turned to see the little Linger in the wooden cradle lying obediently and playing by himself, babbling in his mouth, his fleshy right hand scratching the air in the air, and the left hand grabbed the wrist. The red rope tied to it was obtained by Wei Lanxiang in the temple, and Zhao’er and he had both.
“Whose little paw is this?” Lu Gu picked up his son, kissed Lingjun’s little hand lightly, and shouted outside, “Yanyan, take a basin of warm water.”
“Okay.” Shen Yan agreed, and after a while, she brought in the milk fruit and the wooden basin, and helped Lu Gu to wipe Xiao Linger’s hands and face with a towel.
The two of them took their children and washed clothes at home. Ji Qiuyue came back to cook with Zhao’er on her back at noon. Today, Shen Yaoqing and Shen Xuanqing were not there, and only the four of them and their two children were there for lunch and dinner.
As the sun went down to the west, there were fewer pedestrians, and they all rushed home before dark.
A mule cart walked out of the entrance of Wangli Village, and a long shadow was reflected on the ground. Shen Xuanqing waved his whip and made a sound in the air, and the mule walked faster.
Running all the way back from the official road, he didn’t rush the mule to continue running, anyway, let him take a break, and they all arrived at Wangli Village.
When the two of them were far away from Wang Li Village, Shen Yaoqing, who was sitting in the back of the car, said, “I heard people say that Wang Anzi takes pigs at his house for two or five dollars.”
Shen Xuanqing sat in front, heard the words and said with a smile: “It doesn’t matter, Wang Anzi is a native of their village, and it’s reasonable to say that it is cheaper than us. When the piglets in our family grow up, we won’t have to buy them with Li Zhuzi. “
“Twenty-six dollars, it’s not too expensive, as long as the meat is sold out, we can earn it.”
Shen Yaoqing nodded and said, “That’s right, it’s just one dollar for every penny. I’ll leave it to Changnan Village to inquire later. If it’s two or two to five dollars, we’ll go there next time to buy it. If it’s all at this price, It’s better to drop by Wang Li Village.”
The butcher shop mainly sells rabbits, but pork is also sold. On the day of opening, a pig is slaughtered, and the price is cheaper. If it is cold today, the meat is easy to buy and go home, and it is not afraid of stinky and rancid, so the price of meat is higher. The price of pork is between 18 and 20 cents per pound. The two discussed it on the way back. Two days before the opening, pork was sold for 15 cents per pound.
It is not uncommon for a shop that has just opened to sell things cheaply, but it cannot be done after the first two days, otherwise the market will be ruined.
Because the piglets have only been raised at home for half a year, before slaughtering, they can only buy one or two pigs from a pig farmer, and start the business first.
After a big pig is slaughtered, it can usually be sold for about three taels of silver. The price of meat is less than three taels. If you raise it yourself, it is more cost-effective. It is just grass and wheat bran and bran. There is no other cost, except for buying piglets. Two money is a net income of more than two taels, which is already very good for the country people.
Today, I went to Li Zhuzi’s house to see the pigs, and said that one head is 226 yuan. If I sell it at 1820 yuan, I can make a net profit of 34000 yuan. But this is the first time it opened, and he is not greedy for more. The capital of the money is sold back, and it would be better if you can earn one or two dollars in the end.
After the two of them were talking, Shen Xuanqing thought about it and said, “I forgot about it today. Next time, I will find Li Zhuzi to buy pigs, and buy a few piglets with him. Of the four in the family, one is going to be a breeding pig. In the second half of the year, only three can sell meat, which is not enough. If I go back next time, I will buy piglets and big pigs, and see if the big pigs can get a little cheaper.”
Shen Yaoqing followed his words and thought for a while, and said, “It’s true, even if you slaughter one pig every two months, you will get six big pigs a year.”
“But in half a year, Huahua will be able to breed. This year is too late, so we can only have one litter. From next year, we don’t ask for too much in one year. The next two litters will be completed, and there will be seven or eight ten in one litter. , you won’t have to buy pigs with others in the future.”
Shen Xuanqing drove the mule cart around the fork and headed towards Qingxi Village. Hearing this, he couldn’t help laughing.
Huahua is the sow with two black flowers on her butt. Because Shen Yao is watching the house in the big house at night, Ji Qiuyue often lives there with Zhaoer recently. She has been feeding the pigs for a long time, and sometimes she is bored in the same circle. The pig talked, and later called the sow Heihuahua jokingly.
The whole family knows that the sow will have a lot of piglets for their family in the future, and they don’t dare to delay the food, drink and water. Pigs are different.
Three words are a bit too many, these days Ji Qiuyue and Shen Yaoqing have become Huahua.
Shen Xuanqing only found it funny, but didn’t say a word, thinking that now even the pigs in the family have names, but think about it, the dogs at home are the heroes of hunting and housekeeping, and everyone has a name. In the future, the piglets will also be heroes. , it makes sense to give it a name.
The two of them rushed back all the way. The sun had already set. Ji Qiuyue and Zhao’er were at the big house. She had already eaten. Shen Xuanqing and Shen Yaoqing unloaded the cart and took the mule to the backyard.
“You two go, I’ll fetch the water.” She asked Shen Yaoqing to carry Zhao’er over, pour water and grass for the mule, and someone had to watch the child, otherwise it would accidentally fall and be touched, and if it didn’t matter if she cried, she was afraid of injury. with child.
The two of them had lunch at Yang’s house in the afternoon, and they drove back in the middle of the afternoon. They didn’t stop when they passed through Fenggu Town on the way. They were all hungry now.
After returning home, Shen Yan saw them enter the door first, and went to the kitchen to serve meals. Lu Gu came out of the room with Xiao Linger in his arms. Shen Xuanqing scooped up water and washed his hands. He found a chair and sat down.
“Come on, I’ll hold it, you go wash.” Wei Lanxiang lit the candle and took Zhao’er into her arms.
Zhao’er didn’t look at her, she turned her face to look at Dad in the yard.
“This **** is still holding grudges against your grandma.” Wei Lanxiang scolded with a smile.
When Ji Qiuyue was here just now, Zhao’er grabbed the milk fruit in Brother Xiaoling’s hand, twisted his body and cried, and was beaten by Wei Lanxiang, he became angry and awkward. Ji Qiuyue didn’t take it away, so he saved The skin monkey robs his younger brother of milk fruit, which is disgusting.
This is how children are taught, and they are taught slowly. Besides, he still remembers to eat and not to fight. Wei Lanxiang broke a small piece of sesame shortcake for him. Zhaoer took it in his hand and ate it, and immediately laughed.
“Give it to Brother Ling, will it work?” Wei Lanxiang was amused by hugging her eldest grandson.
Zhao’er knew who her younger brother was and who Linger was. Hearing that, she scratched her face with her little hand and thought for a while, before she took down a little pastry and handed it to Lu Gu.
“Stingy!” Wei Lanxiang tapped his forehead, smiling so hard that he couldn’t close his mouth, this little thing, just a little bit, sticking a small piece on the finger, it’s not enough for Xiaoling to stick between his teeth .
“It’s too generous.” Lu Gu was also teasing next to him, too happy, Shen Xuanqing came in after washing, stood in front of him and bent over to tease Xiao Lingjun, and then sat down to eat.
Wei Lanxiang smiled and pushed Zhao’er’s hand back, and said with disgust: “Your hands are dirty, our Linger won’t eat it, you eat it yourself.”
Shen Yaoqing washed his face and hands and came in to eat. Seeing his son was making a joke, he couldn’t help but flick his son’s forehead. It was really stingy to eat that much for his brother.
Because they were having dinner, Lu Gu carried Xiao Lingjun back to the room.
By the time Shen Xuanqing entered the room and lay down, the night was already dark.
He relaxed his hands and feet without disturbing his sleeping son. After lying down comfortably, he whispered to Lu Gu about today’s affairs.
“I was eating at Master’s side at noon. Brother Yang Xian said that he met Dai Yongsheng from the casino two days ago, and he said hello to the shop. No worries, he went to the blacksmith after cooking the stove and asked him to make four iron The hooks, a few knives, and the cauldron for the stove have been bought and put in Master’s house first.”
“When I come back, I set a big pig at Li Zhuzi’s house…”
He narrated in a low voice, Lu Gu listened carefully, the moonlight outside was accompanied by a breeze, and even dreaming was gentle.
