In the first night, Fox Dayou and Wei Sanniang also discussed how to have less contact with Xiang's family, but on the second day, Xiang's family came over.

“…… His uncle happened to have a good relationship with Wang Fatzi, and told us about the situation of our family, and the child's uncle had brought a letter over, saying that Wang Fatzi would come to collect the pork in the morning, didn't you say yesterday that the pigs at home had not been sold? Do you want to sell it to Wang Fatzi with our family today? The tone was very concerned.

Wei Sanniang suddenly felt guilty, suppressed the alienation of her heart, and invited Xiang's into the house to sit, Xiang's only stood in the courtyard for a while, and didn't sit, and told her when she left: "If you don't see when Wang Fatzi enters the village, listen to the sound of pigs and prepare." ”

After Xiang's left, Wei Sanniang felt depressed for a while. When I turned around, I saw that Hu Xiaomei was standing under the eaves and looked at her with a smile, and frowned: "What are you laughing at?" ”

Hu Xiaomei smiled again and said, "Actually, Aunt Xiang is very good-hearted. ”

Wei Sanniang sighed helplessly: "Yes, such a life is too bitter." ”

Seeing that Wei Sanniang's eyebrows were about to twist into a river, Hu Xiaomei stepped forward to hold her hand and said softly: "Mother, you don't have to worry so much, what happened to us before, and what happened now, our family and theirs didn't have anything to do before." Daddy's consideration is right, it's better to do this, let's take less of their road in the future, if she has something to help in the future, we can help, if we can't help, forget it. "In this village, their family is considered to be benevolent, if this matter is known by others, I am afraid that even the door will not be allowed to the Xiang family.

When it was almost noon, Hu Xiaomei saw Wang Fatzi who was heading towards Xiang's house at the door, she turned around and went back to the courtyard and told Wei Sanniang. The fox fence incense was called, and the mother and daughter released the pig out of the pigsty. Fox Dayou and Thirteen went to the market to sell bean curd, and they could only rely on Fox Xiaomei and Fox Lixiang to assist Wei Sanniang.

This morning, Wei Sanniang deliberately postponed the pig food for an hour, many people are like this, and the fat pigs are fed before selling the pigs, so that they can increase some weight.

At this time, the big fat pig had just eaten for a while, and Wei Sanniang drove it out with a pole for a while. Finally drove the fat pig out, and as soon as it came out of the yard, it lay down in the yard and began to bask in the sun.

Wei Sanniang didn't care, and found a thick hemp rope. Pigs were already screaming from the other side of the village. After a while, the sound stopped. Wei Sanniang stood outside the door, and after a while, she saw Wang Fatzi driving a fat pig over. He was followed by Xiang's.

Arrive at the gate of the hospital. Wei Sanniang greeted Wang Fatzi, Wang Fatzi gave the stick to Xiang's, let Xiang's look at the fat pig, and he followed Wei Sanniang into the yard.

I don't know if this fat man has a murderous aura or how to drop it. I saw Wang Fatzi walking into the courtyard. The fat pig, who was still lying on the ground basking in the sun, immediately staggered to his feet. Wang Fatzi took the hemp rope to set the fat pig, and Wei Sanniang and the three of them helped intercept it in the other three directions. But how could the two little girls, Fox Xiaomei and Fox Lixiang, have the strength to control a fat pig, but fortunately, Wei Qingbao, who passed by, came in to help. Five people together, it took a lot of effort to restrain this fat pig, and Hu Xiaomei was even more tired and sweating, this pig can really toss. Fox Fence Xiang was also a little gasping.

Even the fat man Wang had a fine sweat on his forehead, he wiped his forehead, and said to Wei Sanniang with a smile: "Your pig is well raised, at least one hundred and eighty or ninety pounds." ”

In ancient times, people had little time to eat meat, and they liked to eat fatty meat. There is a lot of oil and water.

With these words, it means that Wang Fatzi is very satisfied with this pig, Wei Sanniang's heart is also a little lighter, several people tied up the pig fat in twos and threes, and Wang Fatzi took out a big pole and said that it was hooked. Weighing a fat pig is a hard work, and two people have to lift their heads, and the third person moves to weigh the pig.

Wang Fatzi raised his head, Wei Sanniang and Wei Qingbao raised their heads together, Hu Xiaomei looked at the number of scales on the weighing rod, and helped to move the scale, waiting for the weight to remain level, and the three of them put the pig down.

Wang Fatzi took the weighing rod and looked at it carefully, Hu Xiaomei already had a number in her heart, so she said: "It should be one hundred and eighty-nine catties." ”

Wang Fatzi, who was looking at it carefully, looked up in surprise, looked at the petite fox Xiaomei, and praised: "Yo, this girl is amazing." looked at Wei Sanniang's constant praise: "Your girl is so smart, many adults can't understand my title, you girl can recognize it at a glance, and she can say it accurately." He nodded: "It is indeed one hundred and eighty-nine catties." ”

Compared to being able to make a down jacket, Wei Sanniang didn't feel anything at all, but this fat pig was almost 200 catties, which made her very happy, and she hurriedly asked Wang Fatzi: "How much is this woolly pork?" ”

Wang Fatzi stretched out three fingers.

Three copper plates a catty, Wei Sanniang immediately smiled, people came to collect pork, and the pork should be collected, Wang Fatzi still has a conscience, and the price of meat has not dropped.

One hundred and eighty-nine catties, then it should be five hundred and sixty-seven copper plates, Wei Sanniang happily accepted the silver. This year's New Year's Festival is probably the smoothest in decades. ‘

When Wang Fatzi drove the fat pig away, Wei Sanniang turned around and gave Hu Xiaomei and Hu Lixiang five copper plates each.

"Ming'er, I'm going to gather you to buy some delicious food." He said to Wei Qingbao on the side: "Qingbao helps our family a lot on weekdays, and Ming'er will also go and let them entertain you to eat chaos." ”

"It's okay to go to the market. Forget about chaos. Wei Qingbao said with a smile, his eyes involuntarily flashing towards the fox.

Fox Lixiang and Wei Sanniang both paid attention to his small movements, Hu Xiaomei took out the two copper plates in the purse and counted them together, and was carefully putting the copper plates in the bag, but she didn't see Wei Qingbao's expression, Wei Qingbao was slightly disappointed.

Hu Xiaomei raised her head and looked at Wei Sanniang unhappily: "Mother, how many copper plates have you just given, four copper plates for a bowl of chaos, and my sister and I only have ten copper plates, don't invite Brother Qingbao to eat chaos at that time, but let him give money." ”

Wei Qingbao's heart immediately seemed to be filled with honey, and he hurriedly said: "What's this, I'm not the same." He wished that Fox Xiaomei could follow him to eat chaos every day.

"I know, I'll give you another money when Ming'er leaves." Wei Sanniang said, picked up a broom and began to sweep the yard, and the fat pig kicked a lot of mud in the yard. A puff of dust kicked up in the yard.

Hu Xiaomei swept in front of her with her hand, and walked out of the yard with her purse, and Wei Qingbao immediately followed. Fox Fence paused at her feet, and finally did not follow, but turned and entered the house.

As soon as Hu Xiaomei got out of the yard, she walked towards the entrance of the village, and after walking a distance, she found that Wei Qingbao had been following her.

"Brother Qingbao is not going back?" Fox Xiaomei didn't look back, she kept walking out of the village, and there was no end in sight on the long path, and there was no figure of Fox Dayou and Thirteen.

"It's still early." Wei Qingbao stood behind Hu Xiaomei, looking at the slender back with complicated eyes.

Fox Xiaomei found a stone to sit on it, it was almost noon, and Fox Dayou should be back soon. The person behind her didn't say anything again for a long time, so long that she thought Wei Qingbao was gone.

After a while, I heard Wei Qingbao in the back say again: "My father is looking for someone to match me everywhere." The voice was soft and low, and a little dull.

Hu Xiaomei was stunned for a moment, turned her head to look at him, and said with a smile: "Brother Qingbao is so good, he must be able to find an excellent sister-in-law." She told the truth, Wei Qingbao has a good temper, he has followed Wei Shiming to work hard since he was a child, and he also has some brains in business, and whoever follows him in the future will definitely not have to worry about food and clothing.

On weekdays, Wei Qingbao is good to her, and Hu Xiaomei sees it in her eyes, she is not a wooden person, so she can naturally feel a little bit, but this kind of thing does not mean that whoever is good to whom will definitely be able to be together, and you have to talk about feelings. Hu Xiaomei is a modern person in the 21st century, and it is really difficult for her to marry someone she doesn't like just by relying on the words of the matchmaker like the ancients.

Even if Wei Qingbao didn't mention this matter to her today, Hu Xiaomei was ready to find an opportunity to let Wei Qingbao understand her mind. Naturally, saying such things will make Wei Qingbao sad.

Sure enough, Wei Qingbao's eyes flashed with disappointment, and the expression on his face was a little stiff, he thought that he grew up with Hu Xiaomei, even if he didn't fall in love, he was a childhood sweetheart. It's a pity that when Hu Xiaomei heard that she was going to say kiss, she only smiled and congratulated him. She refused so tactfully and obviously.

Wei Qingbao felt like someone had punched him in the chest, and the stuffy pain made him very uncomfortable.

He tugged at the corners of his mouth, forced out a smile, and wanted to follow the fox Xiaomei's words, "I hope the other party can think like you." "I can't spit out the words when they come to my mouth. He wanted to ask Hu Xiaomei again: "Since I'm so good, why don't you like it?" ”

He didn't dare to ask, he was afraid that once he pierced that layer of paper, Hu Xiaomei would completely alienate him in the future.

Hesitation and irritability shone on Wei Qingbao, he frowned, barely showed it, he had to go back and calm down, otherwise he didn't know if he would be unable to hold back and ask Hu Xiaomei.

"It's not early, there are still things at home, I'll go back first."

"Hmm." Hu Xiaomei smiled and nodded, and waved at him: "Then Brother Qingbao slow down." ”

Wei Qingbao nodded, took a few steps, but still couldn't help but turned his head to Hu Xiaomei and said, "It's cold, you better go home and wait for your uncle." After speaking, without waiting for Hu Xiaomei to reply, she strode into the village.

The smile on Hu Xiaomei's face slowly faded, and she exhaled, a little impatient.

Fox Dayou and Thirteen soon returned, and the three of them talked and laughed and returned home, specifically, Fox Xiaomei and Fox Dayou. Thirteen is a man of few words.

Hearing that the fat pig at home was finally sold, Fox Dayou was also a lot more relaxed: "We must make plans early next year, or we will buy a little pig after the New Year." ”

"Okay." Fox Xiaomei said happily and proposed to Fox Dayou: "Dad, if we start the down jacket business next year, why don't we raise a fat pig and eat it ourselves?" "That way, they can eat meat all year round!

A fat pig can sell a maximum of 200 catties, so a fat pig can sell a maximum of 600 copper plates, which is a lot of income. But after all these years, the family has finally changed a little, and he really wants to improve the lives of the three children in the family, so after thinking about it, he said, "Okay." However, it's a pity to eat all the fat pigs, otherwise, let's choose to buy a piglet in a few days, raise it until the second half of the year, sell it and then buy a piglet, and keep it for us to eat. ”

Thirteen on the side looked at Hu Xiaomei and said, "I can do the work of cutting pigweed." (To be continued......)
