Xiao Fuyuan held Ah Zhen's hand until they came to the You family's pig pen. Ah Zhen was still in a fugue.
who I am?
where am I?
Why do I have to wander from one pigsty to another?
Pianxiao Fuyuan also asked him: "Little brother, I will raise a baby pig, you will cut the grass and I will feed it, and it will grow into a big fat pig, okay?"
He could only nod and say yes.
In the vast world, under the scorching sun, in the wind and rain, holding a basket in his left hand and holding a knife in his right hand, he squatted on the ground and cut weeds one by one. Behind him, a group of piglets howled with hunger.
The image of a miserable pigherder springs to mind.
A Zhen's face turned dark.
Xiao Fuyuan saw his second sister-in-law standing next to You Qingya, muttering something, and You Qingya looked impatient.
Hey, this second sister-in-law is everywhere. Does she know that she earns her troubles by relying on her ability?
"Xiao Yuanbao, are you coming to see the pigs too?" You Qingya saw Xiao Fuyuan change his smile.
"Yes, Sister Qingya."
Last time, Xiao Fuyuan gave You Qingya two wild geese, which laid eggs every day. You Qingya took them to the town to sell and save money. She had a lot of money in her hands, and she smiled when she saw Xiao Fuyuan.
"Xiao Yuanbao, my sister will sell the pig later and I will buy candies for you with the money she earns." You Qingya said that although the majority of the money was controlled by her parents, she would still have a share of the scraps.
"I have candy, thank you sister." Xiao Fuyuan thanked her sweetly.
Yu Jingui was quite unhappy. The sixth sister was stupid. She was busy trying to please her husband's sister-in-law. Her sister-in-law had nothing to do with their old You family.
Why didn't she say that she would buy candies for her fourth sister and her nephew Sanlang?
Could it be his sixth sister?
You Jingui looked at Bai Sanzhuang, who had just tied up the donkey cart and walked into the yard with Tianmai Miao, and glanced at You Qingya's eyes that instantly went out.
She felt that she must have uncovered the mystery of Liu Mei's emotions.
When You Qingya was talking to Xiao Fuyuan, she paid attention to the movements outside. When she heard Bai Sanzhuang's voice, a little flower suddenly bloomed in her heart.
When he saw the field wheat seedlings beside Bai Sanzhuang, the flower slowly withered again, and he turned and walked towards the pig pen.
Xiao Fuyuan sighed maturely.
My third brother is the most lucky in the Lao Bai family. In the past, he was the apple of shopkeeper Xu, and in the later, the sixth sister of the You family fell in love with him.
There will be more to come.
Fortunately, the third brother has been among thousands of flowers, and he only has sister Mai Miao in his heart.
But Sister Mai Miao has no such thoughts about the third brother now.
Yeah, so sad.
"What is Xiao Yuanbao thinking about?" A Zhen saw Xiao Fuyuan wandering around and tapped her forehead.
"I want to raise a big fat pig." Xiao Fuyuan looked innocent.
A Zhen: "..."
"Qingya, you feed the pig well." Bai Sanzhuang stood in front of the pig pen, glanced at the big fat pig, and praised happily.
You Qingya looked calm and didn't answer.
Ever since her fourth sister Yu Jingui married the second brother of the Bai family without any means, You Qingya felt quite ashamed. This shame became more and more intense as she got older, making her even embarrassed to say hello to Bai Sanzhuang when she met him in the village.
Obviously when they were children, they rolled over haystacks together, went to the mountains to cut firewood together, and went to the river to catch fish together...
A few years ago, Shopkeeper Xu came to recruit Bai Laosan as his son-in-law. The news spread throughout Shenshu Village, but nothing happened later.
You Qingya breathed a sigh of relief.
Now another wheat seedling appears.
She knew that Tian Maimiao's pork shop was opposite Bai Sanzhuang's lacquerware shop. She went to town to sell goose eggs and saw the two of them laughing across the street from a distance.
Heartbroken.
"The pigsty is cleaner than Village Chief Zhao's house." Tian Maimiao looked around and said.
"The pig pen is clean and the pigs are less likely to get sick." You Qingya suppressed the sourness in her heart and continued.
"No, I am a very honest girl. She is the only one in the village who cleans the pig pen twice in the morning and evening. Mai Miao, look at this pig pen. It's cleaner than other people's kitchens." You Jingui held his arms and spoke for the girl.
"How long have you raised this pig? It's quite fat." Tian Maimiao touched the pig and found it was clean and healthy.
"Eight months." You Qingya said.
"How much do you pay for this pig? My pig is fed bean dregs, and the preserved meat tastes better than eating grass." Qian and Dad You came out of the mill, patted the bean dregs on their bodies and squeezed into the crowd of onlookers.
Tian Maimiao straightened up, came out of the pigsty, and said to You Qingya with crooked eyebrows: "You have bought my meat before, and you know that I am a person who doesn't like grinding. Ten taels of silver."
You Qingya nodded, even if it was lower, she could accept it.
It has exceeded expectations.
"Mai Miao, you give ten taels to the village chief's family. The pigs in my house are fed with a mixture of bean dregs and grass. The cost is higher than that of the village chief's family who feed only grass. Ten taels is a bit less."
Xiao Fuyuan shook his head, this second sister-in-law would kick her everywhere.
Bai Sanzhuang had a black line on his face. How could this second sister-in-law have any sense of presence?
This pig is much lighter than the pigs from the village chief's family. It is precisely because Eugene Gui is the second sister-in-law of the Bai family that Tian Maimiao gives the village chief's family a price for the favor.
Why are you so dissatisfied?
"Second sister-in-law, the price offered by Mai Miao is very reasonable. What she feeds has nothing to do with her." Bai Sanzhuang spoke up to defend Tian Mai Miao.
The village chief's wife in the crowd exclaimed, "The third child of the Bai family has now taken a stand."
When You Qingya heard Bai Sanzhuang defending Tian Maimiao, she felt even more sour. She also knew that Sanzhuang was right, so she said to Tian Maimiao: "I raised this pig. I make the decision. The deal is done at ten taels."
You Qingya wanted to tie up the pig quickly and tell Tian Maimiao and Bai Sanzhuang to leave quickly. If she stayed any longer, she was afraid that her sour water would boil out.
"Qingya, you damn girl, our bean dregs don't need money, right?" Qian scolded, "Your parents haven't spoken yet, but you are in charge."
You Qingya was not afraid of Mr. Qian at all, and she felt embarrassed to be scolded in front of Bai Sanzhuang. She raised her face and said: "I dug up the herbs and sold them for money, and I fed them. I have the final say over this pig. "
"Your father and I grind the bean dregs." Qian stamped her feet, "You damn girl, how can you do business like this?"
You Qingya said coldly: "Listen to Fourth Sister. Ask Fourth Sister to give you ten taels of silver. If you say one more word, I will not sell this pig. I will kill it and chop it up to feed the dogs."
Qian: "..."
"Dad, what did you say?" You Qingya asked the You family's father.
Because the father of the You family had seven daughters and no son, he felt that he could not hold his head high in the village. He hid in the mill all day and rarely expressed any opinions.
This time I was asked by my daughter by name. She spread her hands and said, "Ten taels, just ten taels, but as you said, this money must be given to the family and cannot be kept secret."
Seeing that the deal was settled, Tian Maimiao took out the money and handed it to You Qingya, feeling somewhat fond of the good bamboo shoots from this nest of bad bamboos.
You Qingya took the money, jumped into the pigsty, and tied up the pig herself without asking for help.
Miraculously, the pig didn't squeal like the sow at the village chief's house. Instead, it obediently rubbed You Qingya's hand. You Qingya touched its head, and then it lay on the ground obediently and let it go. You Qingya was tied up with a rope.
You Qingya tied up the pig's four legs, tied them with knots, and said to Bai Sanzhuang and Tian Maimiao, "Let's find someone to carry them away."
Xiao Fuyuan stood in front of the pig pen. Seeing You Qingya's red eyes, he felt a little sorry for her. He took out a candy from his pocket, waited for her to jump out of the pig pen, and quietly stuffed it into her.
You Qingya held the warm candy in her hands, feeling even more uncomfortable.
She was really reluctant to let go of the pig she had raised since she was a child.
Bai Sanzhuang called on a few Faxiao who had grown up together and put the tightly tied pigs on Tianmai Miao's donkey cart.
The crowd watching the excitement rushed out and went to Yu Mazi's house next.
You Qingya's pig was carried on the donkey cart to keep company with the village chief's pig. As if he had just predicted the fate of being slaughtered, he let out a sad cry.
The tears that You Qingya had been holding back for a long time finally rolled down.
"Oh, girl, you stepped on my foot."
