The Sweet Little Fulang - Chapter 197
After a busy morning, they were killing pigs and meat, and they were catching chickens and ducks for customers. Some people wanted rabbit meat without fur. Shen Yaoqing had to go to the backyard to kill them. Rabbit meat without fur has been sold cheap these two days, only 20 cents a piece, and live rabbits are also cheaper than usual, rounding up the whole number and selling them for 30 cents a piece, which is not unusual for Jixing Town who wants to eat some wild animals. For people, it is still more cost-effective to buy only rabbit meat.
Fortunately, they had a lot of people at the opening today, so they could be busy. The shop in front was crowded with people, so Shen Yan couldn’t stay in front, so he took Ni’er to the backyard to boil water. He had to use hot water to kill rabbits and chickens.
There were a lot of people in front of them, and they were walking around again. Lu Gu had eyesight and was afraid of getting in the way of others’ busyness. , hurried back to the room.
It doesn’t matter if you stir under your feet, Zhao’er might get hurt if she stumbles on the ground, so it’s better to stay in the room.
After coming in, Lu Gu put Zhao’er on the ground and couldn’t help smiling and said, “It’s really heavy.”
“Shen.” When Zhao’er spoke to Lord Aixue recently, she would catch the last word in a sentence and say it.
Lu Gu smiled even more, hugged Brother Ling and said, “Who is sinking?”
Zhao’er is a big kid. He seems to understand that he is sinking. He doesn’t speak anymore. When he hears the excitement outside, he is about to walk out of the house. He can walk now, but his feet are not smooth and stable. Every time he has to be watched by adults. Be prepared to fall.
Lu Gu hurriedly grabbed him and said, “If you don’t go, don’t go, I’m in the room with my little mama and my brother. Let’s play and see what’s on the table?”
Zhao’er’s attention was attracted, and he looked over the table. After seeing the egg, he turned his footsteps and didn’t go out the door. He walked to the table because he couldn’t reach it, so he raised his hand to try it, and then turned to look at Lu Gu. She shouted in a milky voice: “Egg, egg.”
As soon as he spoke, Brother Xiaoling in Lu Gu’s arms also called out twice. Brother Xiaoling was well-dressed and didn’t wrap himself up in swaddling clothes when he woke up in the morning. At this moment, his little arms and calves could move around, and his little fingers pointed at the eggs.
These are a few boiled eggs that Mrs Yan brought in the morning, let them eat it as breakfast, and Zhao’er got up early and ate half of them.
Their family spirits are getting bigger and bigger, Lu Gu frowned, grabbed the baby’s little hand and said with a smile, “You want to eat too? This is an egg, an egg.”
“Ah.” Brother Xiaoling shook his arm and learned to speak to him, but he still didn’t know how to speak.
Lu Gu smiled and shouted outside, “Yanyan, roll the eggs in hot water, and I will peel them for Zhao’er.”
“Hey, here we come.” Shen Yan put down the fire stick in her hand and walked over.
The water in the cauldron was boiling, and when it was hot, she fished it out of the cauldron and brought it back into the room.
Lu Gu was comforting Zhao’er, who was anxious to eat eggs. He put the two children on the bed, took off their shoes, and let them play on the bed.
“Come here, isn’t it?” He carried Zhao’er, who was crawling under the bed, back into the bed, took the bowl in Shen Yan’s hand, and blew the hot eggs and quickly peeled them.
Seeing that Zhao’er was eating eggs, Xiao Linger, who was sitting against the pillow, threw away the small rattle in his hand, screamed in his mouth, and seemed to want to eat when he stretched out his hand.
Lu Gu broke half of the egg whites for Zhao’er to eat. The egg yolks would choke, so he didn’t dare to eat more. Seeing that he was in a hurry, he smiled and said, “You are too young to eat.”
Xiao Lingjun was only in his early six months, and when he was still eating milk fruit, the child kept his mouth open and wanted to eat, so he had to break a little egg white and stuff it into the child’s mouth.
He put the egg bowl next to him and sat down on the bed with Lingjun, who was smashing his mouth. The two milk dolls were next to each other. Lingjun was well-dressed, Zhaoer was chubby. Things are more secure one by one, much easier to carry than before.
Zhao’er took a bite, Lingjun took a small bite, and Lu Gu sat on the bed with a smile and gave them eggs, and ate the yolk himself.
“No more.” After he finished eating, he clapped his hands and showed Zhao’er and Lingjun the empty bowl.
Zhao’er pressed his hand and looked down at the empty bowl, almost burying her face in it. Brother Xiaoling also reached out to press the bowl, and Lu Gu brought the bowl to him and gave him a good look.
Brother Ling also put his face into the bowl, he laughed out loud, with a smile in his eyes, and said, “Okay, okay, no more.”
After eating, Zhao’er crawled around on the bed, Lu Gu hugged Xiaoling and shook the rattle, sometimes teasing Zhao’er, messing up the bed is nothing, just stay in the house.
It wasn’t until mid-morning that the shop in front gradually became quiet.
Yang Xian and his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, were busy with the tavern, so they went back first. After a while, Shen Yan poured tea for everyone, and Mrs. Yan and Wei Lanxiang sat at the table drinking tea and resting, talking with a smile about what happened today. How much was sold.
In the house, Zhao’er and Lingjun were reluctant to sleep. Lu Gu heard that it was not busy outside, so he took them out again.
“Eleven rabbits were sold. The old chickens and ducks were sold at market prices. It wasn’t cheap. We only sold three rabbits.”
Shen Xuanqing brought tea to the elders with a teapot, and said with a smile: “The chickens and ducks are all collected from others, and the market price is paid at the time of collection. If you have capital, you can’t sell them at a loss.”
“This is.” Yan Shi nodded in agreement.
In the future, the shop will be open for a long time. Chickens and ducks raised in the backyard are not afraid of not being able to sell. Besides, they are not in a hurry to sell due to lack of money.
As soon as Lu Gu came out with the two children in his arms, Yan Shi and Wei Lanxiang hurriedly stretched out their hands and took the other one in their arms.
He had been watching the children in the house, not knowing what was going on outside. Hearing Shen Yaoqing say that eleven rabbits were sold, he raised his eyes with a smile, and was smashing into the eyes of Shen Xuanqing who was looking at him with a smile.
Shen Xuanqing poured him a bowl of tea and said, “One of the two pork fans is sold out, and the other is still more than half of it. The pig heart and lungs are sold for seventy-eighty-eight, and there are not many left.”
The two pig ears were kept for Lao Yang’s head, and Yan Shi’s stewed them back, so that Lao Yang’s head could be served as an appetizer.
Lu Gu took the tea bowl, blew it, and took a sip. He looked up at the pork on the wooden shelf. There were also three or two kilograms of pork cut into small pieces on the table.
After a short break, someone in Jixing Town heard that meat was cheap here, so they came to buy a pound or two, and there were intermittent customers.
After being busy for so long, Shen Xuanqing said that he was going to eat at the restaurant on Xixing Street. It opened the day before. Although this butcher shop has pots and pans, it is small and the tables and chairs are crowded even if they can be spread out. With the Yan family, going to a restaurant is the right thing to do.
Yan Shi understands that he only opened, and spends so much money. Besides, Yang Xian is the owner of a tavern. Today, on such a big day, it doesn’t make sense to eat elsewhere, and he just refuses.
Shen Xuanqing knew that she wanted to save money for herself. He did spend a lot of money to open the shop, but the hundreds of taels of silver he had accumulated in three years would not be enough. , I had no choice but to bring pork and rabbits and go to Yang Xian Tavern to help them do it.
When Yang Xian and his daughter-in-law left, he had already cut ten catties of pork, which was for business in the tavern. Yang Xian wanted to give the money, but he pushed it back and didn’t ask for it. The meat they mentioned was enough for them all to eat. .
There are a lot of people today, and the noon meal is important. The butcher’s shop is temporarily closed, and it will be opened in the afternoon.
There were more than a dozen people sitting around a table, eating meat and drinking, and it was very lively.
I have been in Jixing Town for two days. There is so much work at home that I can’t expect Shen Shunwang and Shen Yuping to take care of them. They also have work to do at home.
After returning, Lu Gu packed his things in the room. There were not too many. Linggeer ate eight milk nuts, and the basket was lighter than when he came.
Wei Lanxiang was washing the wet diaper that Xiao Lingjun had just changed in the backyard. She could leave after washing it, saving her a dirty diaper on the way home.
“Remember to take it back at night, in case the wind blows or rains at night. If it’s not dry, it will be exposed to the sun tomorrow.” Lu Gu packed his bags, together with the little mud pigs and little mud dogs he bought on the street yesterday afternoon, Put them in the luggage together, and told Shen Xuanqing who was sitting beside the bed teasing the child.
Shen Xuanqing picked up her son with both hands, kissed Xiaoling brother on the cheek, and said, “I see.”
The mud pig and mud dog were bought for Xiaoling. Children like to play with mud playthings like this. When he saw the fat mud pig being so naive, the mud dog seemed to be barking at people. My son bought two. As for the Jiulianhuan and the big kite that I saw when I was shopping, Lingjun was too young to play.
“My name is Daddy, Daddy.” Shen Xuanqing spoke while holding his Shuangerjiao. Seeing that Lingjun only looked at him curiously with those **** eyes, he said, “You said Daddy, Daddy.”
Lu Gu put the burden in the big bamboo basket and said with a smile, “I can’t tell yet, maybe I will shout in two months.”
Shen Xuanqing wants to see the shop tonight, and doesn’t go home. It’s very rare to hold his son at this time. Since he can’t, he doesn’t bother, and hugs Xiaoling and kisses him again.
Compared to Lu Gu, he is stronger, sometimes the kiss is heavy, and Brother Xiaoling frowns.
“You can’t be lighter.” Of course, Lu Gu is more partial to his own milk doll. She is so small and her face is tender. When she was younger, she was still crying with a beard. It’s pitiful, but now she can’t help frowning and whispering. complain.
Shen Xuanqing looked at his son’s face, and was also said something, and repeatedly responded and begged for mercy: “Okay, be lighter.”
Lu Gu’s brows flattened, and he smiled again.
The borrowed mule cart was temporarily sent to the inn. It was the one I stayed in yesterday. Shen Yaoqing pulled it to the door of the shop just now. In the morning, the inn staff gave him a meal of forage and water, but he gave some money for the forage and the animals would eat it. Run when you are full.
Shen Xuanqing didn’t go back today, and took Linger to send the family to the scooter.
He wants to see the shop selling meat. Today and tomorrow, the price of meat is cheap. There must be more people buying it. He didn’t expect the rabbits to sell so fast. , then parked in the backyard of Yang’s house for him to drive back and forth in the future.
After Lu Gu got on the scooter and sat firmly, Shen Xuanqing gave Ling Geer to him.
“We’re back, you remember to close the doors and windows at night.” Lu Gu urged with the child in his arms.
“Well, I see.” Shen Xuanqing nodded with a smile.
Wei Lanxiang said again: “But be sure to show your tricks. If you are too busy, call your master to come and help.”
Old Yangtou is no longer hunting, and has nothing else to do. Even if Shen Xuanqing doesn’t call, he loves to walk around when he has nothing to do, and he will definitely come around.
Shen Xuanqing smiled and agreed one by one. After speaking, Shen Yaoqing took the mule and walked forward, the wheel of the car rolled over the ground and turned.
Lu Gu sat on the scooter and looked back, getting further and further away from Shen Xuanqing. Seeing Shen Xuanqing raising his hand and waving lightly, he also smiled and raised his hand and waved lightly, until he turned the corner, and he disappeared.
