Chapter 21: I Want to Raise Pigs
Xu Guoguang has raised pigs for almost 20 years, and it is not unheard of the little piglets being bought and returned, but a litter of little piglets being returned is really about to make him angry!
He stopped people from entering, and said in a hurry, "Do you think you are buying clothes? You still return and exchange goods with me? I am a pig for you to pick and choose and sell to you for a long time! I don't want you to say it earlier, take it home and feed it for a few days and come to me and tell me no, why are you cheeky!"
There were three fathers and sons in that family, and the eldest son in the middle stood up to speak, probably knowing that he was at a loss, and he was not angry when he heard it, and said with a hippie smile at the door: "Brother, the account is not calculated like this, you said that you lost, then I also said that I lost, and I took it home for a few days to feed you in vain, and I didn't settle the account with you after eating a lot of me, oh, I told you that your pig is too edible! If you can't afford it, I really won't give it back to you." โ
"That's because you didn't calculate it before you bought it, what does it have to do with me? You returned it to me that others don't know and think that I have a problem with my pig, what will I do if it affects my business in the future, anyway, I have this rule, and I won't return it if I sell it!"
The old man had a bad temper and began to get impatient, "Say retreat, I haven't seen a forced buy and sell, anyway, we haven't paid, the pig will be put for you, love or not." Then he beckoned the two sons to open the car bucket and carry the pigs down one by one.
Xu Guo โกโก to pull people, but the ten little piglets under his feet were not tied to the ground and were happy, arching his nose and humming around, he raised pigs for most of his life, and had feelings for the piglets, afraid that they would run away in a daze, and nervously subconsciously rushed to the yard, and when he turned around, he got on the tricycle and ran away as if he had fled for his life.
Xu Guoguang and his wife came back from outside, saw a litter of pigs in the yard, and asked clearly and scolded angrily: "Rotten goods with no eyes for giving birth to a son, and the dog miscellaneous hair pulled out by the animal, don't think about coming to my house to buy pigs in the future......"
Xu Guo fell โกโก his back, but there was no way, the people didn't pay, the family looked like a bad seed, and he couldn't make a fuss when he looked for it.
The two of them took the piglets into the pigsty angrily, who knew that the old sow was eating, and the stupid didn't know their own cubs, so they drove them out angrily, and there was no choice but to close the yard door and scatter the pigs in the yard.
The two of them put aside their worries, and suddenly heard the motorcycle coming over and stopping at the door of his house, Xu Guoguang hurriedly walked out to see, the old lady in the lead was familiar with him!
That day, she brought her grandson to buy pigs, and it took a long time to pick and choose and take one home, and it was a troublesome person at first glance, wouldn't it be to return the pig?
He was scared in his heart, and waved his arms vigorously to drive people away, "Don't come, don't come, the pigs sold will not be returned or replaced!"
Er Meng hurriedly stepped into the door and stopped him from closing the door, "Don't mind, uncle, we're here to see the pigs!
"What??" Grandma Jiang was dissatisfied when she heard it, and said critically: "Who knows if there is anything wrong with the returned pigs, let's spend money to pick a good one, let's not want these few!"
I knew it!
Xu Guoguang couldn't wait to beat his chest! After persuading his wife for a long time, Zhang Yan and the four of them just didn't buy it, he could only take the four people to see the remaining piglets, Xu Guoguang built a row of pigsty in the house, and there were still seven piglets in it that had not been sold.
Zhang Mei didn't understand this very well, standing next to her and not speaking, Er Meng observed outside for a long time, and picked and chose with Grandma Jiang, and found out a total of four of the most spiritual.
Er Meng and Zhang Mei planned to buy two heads, and he discussed with Grandma Jiang Zhang Yan: "Grandma, Yan, just these four heads, let's pick two for our family." โ
Zhang Yan asked him to pick with Zhang Mei first, and after Zhang Mei picked it, there were still five left, Zhang Yan pointed to the two who were not very strong and discussed with Xu Guoguang and his wife, "I don't want these two, if I buy the remaining five, can I give it cheaper?"
Grandma Jiang was startled, and hurriedly persuaded her: "Yan, there is already one at home, let's be the same as Ermeng's family, two more are enough, no matter how much we buy, our family will not have enough food to feed!"
Xu Guoguang was so happy, he looked at Zhang Yan's face with a smile on his face, pointed to the courtyard and said to her: "His sister, it's better to ask for these heads if you want more, I'll give you a cheaper." โ
Grandma Jiang interrupted him angrily: "Why are you like this, let's buy it or not, don't be here to persuade you! You see that these skinny ones are not cheating people when they sell them to us!"
Xu Guoguang smiled and said to Grandma Jiang and Zhang Yan: "Auntie, his sister, I won't hide it from you, these few were returned, but not because my pigs have a problem, it's because their family is feeding them well and suddenly they don't feed, these few evil people have starved my pigs and lied to you, these pigs are the best litter in my family this year, and the bastard was the first to come and pick them away, do you say it's not good?"
"That's it, the folks in the township won't lie to you, these ten pigs give birth to a top strong, maybe eat, the bastard didn't plan to buy it, it's because the piglets are so good that they pick and choose and don't know how to choose all the buyers, don't believe you wait, I'll mix a bucket of pig food, no need to add feed to feed the wheat bran, they are all rushing to eat, looking rare, if it weren't for my family can't feed it, I would be reluctant to buy it!"
Grandma Jiang didn't listen to her flickering, her eyes widened, "My family can't feed it! You are reluctant to come back now, and build a shed to feed it." โ
Xu Guoguang did not give up, and urged her daughter-in-law to quickly mix pig food to feed.
Zhang Yan saw that they did eat fragrantly, probably because a litter was born from childhood to now has not separated, robbed and robbed, and did not attack others, she was a little shaken in her heart, she was most afraid of pigs fighting, these nests are not coaxed, and when they are full, they look better in spirit, and it is not impossible to buy them.
"Uncle, otherwise, if you look at this, you give a real price, if I can accept it, I will buy it, and if I can't accept it, forget it. โ
The more the pigs were returned, the more difficult it was to sell, and the feed money for a day was wasted at home, and it was not impossible to buy it cheaper at a time, Xu Guoguang discussed it with his daughter-in-law, and gave it twenty yuan cheaper per head.
Zhang Yan thought it was okay, so she turned her head and discussed with Grandma Jiang, she really wanted to buy it.
Grandma Jiang was too disgusted, she was not very happy, and she was afraid that she would make her granddaughter-in-law unhappy if she took care of herself too much, so she nodded hesitantly.
Xu Guoguang and his daughter-in-law were happy in their hearts, and the troubles were solved, and they grinned and asked Zhang Mei and Er Meng, "You see you came together, people bought ten of them, and there is one more at home, so you bought all the four little piglets you saw before, right?"
Zhang Mei saw that Zhang Yan bought a lot, and she also wanted to buy it, so she had already made up her mind, and asked Ermeng: "Why don't we have all four heads, right?" Although I can't do it as Yan, she can feed ten heads and I can feed four heads!"
Er Meng laughed at her, when this is a competition, how can it be simple, in case of any illness in his life, it is possible, but Zhang Mei looked at him energetically, looking full of energy, he didn't want to pour cold water, forget it! Anyway, he is also home this year, just buy it!
"Boss, do you want to give it cheaper?"
"Yes, I'll give you ten dollars cheaper for a pig, but there's one that you have to pay first. "Xu Guoguang eats a trench and grows wise, and if he doesn't see a rabbit, he doesn't scatter an eagle.
Zhang Yan didn't have enough money, so she took a car to the town and went to the cooperative to withdraw money to pay the bill.
The little money that Er Meng bought with Zhang Mei was barely enough, he paid first, pulled back Grandma Jiang's Zhang Mei and his own pigs, and then went back to help, and waited for Zhang Yan to pay, and it took two trips to pull ten pigs.
In and out, the neighbors saw that they were running to make trouble, and some people joked to Grandma Jiang, "Old aunt, you are blessed! The grandson is becoming more and more capable of earning a lot of money outside for you to spend, and the granddaughter-in-law she married is good-looking, and she is also capable at a glance, I really envy you!"
There are also those who say sour words, and they are discouraged there, "You can't get together anything, and it's easy to get sick if you raise too many chickens and ducklings, what can you do if so many pigs are sick?"
Waiting for Zhang Yan and Er Meng to pull the last five piglets back, Grandma Jiang was worried there.
"Yan, why do you have a big idea, if you buy clothes and meat for yourself, grandma won't talk about you, you see that you bought ten pigs back with a hot brain, how can this be done, at least you have to discuss it with Jiang Tao!"
Zhang Yan knew that she was worried that she would not be able to raise her money, so she didn't talk back to her, and stood there honestly listening to her nagging.
She has a right idea in her heart, the price of pork will really rise sharply this year, as long as she feeds it well, and when she buys money out of the circle, she is not afraid that Grandma Jiang will be unhappy, she wants to do something, and she also wants to show it well in front of Grandma Jiang, this is still Jiang Tao's idea for her, let her do whatever she wants, and when she succeeds, Grandma Jiang naturally knows that she is capable, and she will ask her for advice if she has something, and if she is willing to listen to her, there will be no disagreement, and she will be less unhappy in the future.
Ermeng was willing to help, so he said: "In order to build a new house and get married, I picked up the old house before, and no one should pile up the old bricks in the old house, your pigsty is too small, and if you don't dislike it, I'll bring the bricks to build a pigsty for you, right?"
Zhang Yan had the heart to ease the atmosphere, so she shook Grandma Jiang's arm and asked her, "Grandma, what do you say?"
Grandma Jiang is old and fine, and she can see that she is soft in disguise, and she is satisfied, and it is good to know that she is wrong!
She held Zhang Yan's hand, "You can't do this in the future, you have to discuss everything with Taozi, how can you live without discussion!"
Seeing Zhang Yan nodding, she turned back to Er Meng and said, "That's okay, the old lady can't take advantage of your young people, I'll pay for you." โ
"Worthless waste, how can I ask for your family's money! I'll go and pull it later, I still have a bag and a half of cement at home, which will be enough to touch. โ
Grandma Jiang insisted on giving money, and even threatened him: "If you don't collect money, I don't want you to help, you don't know, the days of spending money when you give birth to a baby are ahead, grandma can't rely on the old to sell the old and take advantage of you." โ
Ermeng said that she could only agree, and pulled the bricks over with Zhang Mei and Zhang Yan, and Jiang Jiefang and the second grandfather, father and son, also came to help, first vacated the land and smashed the porcelain, and covered the pigsty on the same day as the cement.
The new pigsty is very large, with a wall of the original pigsty, all the way to the gate of the yard, anyway, the fence yard gate is easy to pick up, Zhang Yan and Grandma Jiang unloaded the original door, blocked it with a firewood stick, and reopened a courtyard gate on the left.
Jiang Tao's house still has a pile of wooden planks left, put on a layer of oiled paper cloth to block the rain, and use cement to build a cement trough, connect with the original old trough, and obliquely lead down to the manure pit outside the yard.
Zhang Yan took the time to kill a chicken, went to the market to cut the meat, and Zhang Grandma Zhang arranged a table of meals to entertain them, rural people are real, like this kind of help from the villagers, they are all because of the good way to come voluntarily, it hurts too much to give money, please eat a meal and thank you, and whoever needs it will also go to help.
