"Daughter, is this pitch black delicious?"
Su Yu split the preserved egg in his hand into two. The yolk inside was hard and it looked like it was inedible.
If only the mouth of the jar had been sealed instead of being covered randomly during storage, the preserved eggs could still be eaten today.
"You can't eat these, just throw them away. I'll make them again when the weather changes. I'll let you try them once they're done."
When trying to persuade their daughter, the couple acted indifferently, but they were used to being frugal in the past. There were at least fifty or sixty people in this group, so it would be a pity to throw them away like this. However, looking at the jet-black duck eggs, the two of them really couldn't stop talking, and they could only feel pity in their hearts.
Su Laoer thought that his daughter was not in a good mood, and happened to think that the Gao family's puppy was now more than a month old and should have been weaned.
"Daughter, do you want to come with me to pick up Erhu?"
Su Yu immediately became energetic upon hearing this.
"Go, has Erhu been weaned?"
"When I went there a few days ago, I heard the butcher Gao say that he needed to be weaned. After a few days, he should be weaned."
"Then let's go quickly and be back before noon."
Su Yu thought of Erhu and temporarily forgot about the broken preserved egg. Putting on his straw hat, the father and daughter set off to the butcher Gao's house in the next village.
When he first started raising chickens and ducks, Su Yu planned to raise a dog. However, no family in the village had enough food. There were very few families raising dogs. It was really hard to find puppies. Su Laoer spent a few months looking for them. After finding a puppy to take home, Su Yu almost cried at the sight of it. She has a slight facial control, whether it is towards people or small animals.
The owner of the puppy is also a butcher. The puppy eats all kinds of pigs every day. A native dog is almost as long as a pug, and no matter how fat it is, it is as fat as a pig. The Su fish he just brought back is alive and well, so Mr. Su asks him The second one went to refund the money. In the end, Su Laoer had no choice but to pay twenty cash and refund the money.
Later, Su Laoer learned the lesson. When he was looking for a puppy, he first took his daughter to see it. After she nodded, he took her home. Later, he went to see a Su Yu who didn't like it either. Dogs are still a thing. Look at the edges of your eyes.
Four months passed. Later, Su Lao Er heard that a female dog raised by Gao butcher in the next village had given birth to a litter of puppies, so he took Su Yu to see it. Su Yu immediately took a fancy to one of them. The puppy was all white with only a black hair on its forehead. Su Yu named it Erhu. At that time, the puppy was still young and had not been weaned, so he could only keep it. At Gao Butcher's house.
By the time we reached the next village, it was already half an hour later. Butcher Gao was not at home at the moment, but Butcher Gao's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhao, was at home.
Seeing that only Gao Butcher's wife was at home, Mr. Su thought to himself that it was a good thing that he had brought his daughter with him, otherwise it would be difficult for him to go in alone with only the wife at home.
"Auntie, I heard that Erhu has been weaned. Is it true?"
"It's broken. It was broken two days ago. I was just trying to get someone to bring a message to your house, but I didn't expect you to come over today and take it away just in time."
"Thank you very much, auntie."
The father and daughter were waiting in the yard. Mrs. Zhao went to the kennel to hold the two tigers alone. Su Yu did not dare to go. The two tiger mothers protected the cubs. When they came to see them before, Su Yu still remembered the fierceness of the two tiger mothers. Like this, if it weren't for the rope, he would definitely pounce on her and bite her. Being such a fierce mother, Erhu will definitely be good when he grows up.
There was another reason why Su Yu didn't like the first pup. It didn't matter if he was fat. He would hide with his tail between his legs when he saw people. What's the use of such a dog? It would be better not to raise it.
It didn't take long for Mrs. Zhao to come out, holding the sleeping Erhu in her arms. The little puppy, which was more than a month old, was not big in stature. At this time, she was sleeping soundly. She didn't know that she was not with her mother when she woke up. Will you cry?
When he came, Su Laoer carried a backpack and put Erhu directly into the backpack.
Su Yu took out two hundred coins from his wallet and handed it to Zhao. The price had been negotiated early in the morning.
Mrs. Zhao took it and put it in her arms without counting it. She still believed in the character of the Su family.
"Auntie, let's go back first. When Auntie comes to Yujia Village, remember to come to my house to play."
"I heard that your family raises a lot of chickens and ducks. When I have time, I will go to your house and buy two."
"Then if Auntie comes to buy next time, I will definitely pick a bigger one for you."
When people buy chickens in the village, they don't have to weigh them, but they tell how many they have. When Su Yu said this, Mrs. Zhao felt relieved. At first, I was just casually talking about the fact that there are many families raising chickens in their village. Why go to Su’s house to buy chickens if they don’t buy them from any house? But now I really want to go to Su’s house to buy chickens.
"Auntie, go as soon as possible."
The two left Gao's house and on the way home, Su Yu kept chattering.
"Dad, let Erhu sleep in the same room with me when we get back. Erhu is still young, so I don't feel comfortable sleeping outside. I will move him out when he grows up."
"Okay, listen to my daughter."
Su Laoer is a proper daughter slave, and her daughter will do whatever she says.
"Then when we go back, Dad will make a small nest for Erhu, and get him a small blanket to hold on, and a small basin for eating and drinking water. Erhu has just been weaned and has a weak stomach, so he needs to eat better. Give him two cups of food every day. Come and eat the eggs.”
Su Laoer's eyelids twitched when he heard this, and he envied Erhu on his back. They ate better than him, but Su Yu didn't think it was a big deal.
As soon as the father and daughter arrived home, the couple was ordered around by Su Yu. Su Laoer went to make a doghouse. Su Yu cut a piece of old cotton batting from the house. He was afraid that the two tigers would bite him, so he asked Lian to sew it up. Put the cover on the old cotton wool and lay it in the dog house so that the two tigers will not bite.
The couple also pampered him and made him a doghouse. At this time, Erhu was nestling in Su Yu's arms, looking left and right, not at all panicking about being in a strange environment.
Su Sheng saw this scene when he came home, but he didn't have time to think about it. After drinking water, he went into his room to study. He is now in Class B. His progress could not keep up before. Mr. Yu also gave him a small class and assigned homework. From the beginning, he learned five words a day to now learning thirty words a day. You can imagine it if you think about it. , Su Sheng is so busy every day now, he is either collapsing or on the way to collapse every day.
What made him feel most powerless was his sister. Whether it was five or thirty words, he could learn them at a glance. He really wanted to pry open and see if the brain inside his sister's head was made of gold. They were close friends. Brother and sister, they look different.
Su Yu didn't care about this and enjoyed torturing his brother every day. Su Sheng's hair has become messy these days, his eyes have become darker and darker, and he has lost weight.
Su Yu didn't think there was any problem with this. Compared with the children who go to school in modern times, what Su Sheng learned every day was far behind them. How could this be? Compared with the children who go to school in modern times, Su Sheng had no idea how much blessing he had.
This man, if he doesn't push hard, he doesn't know where his limits are.
