Poor families have to be careful in their lives.

If you cut all the lean meat, it will be enjoyable when you eat it, but you can eat it after you have eaten it. If you cut back the meat with 30% or even 50% fat, it is the best. Lean meat can be eaten, and fatty meat can be boiled in oil. The remaining oil residue can not only be used to make soup but also stir-fry, which is the most valuable part of the pig.

"Who are you in your Hun family, who are you so easy to be bullied?" Gao stared at the bull's eye like a copper bell, and thundered: "Butcher Hu dare, can't tear his mother-in-law's mouth?" ”

"Yes, yes, Madame is mighty." Zhou Xiucai shrank his head again, and his body suddenly became smaller.

Gao: "However, today, I really want to cut all the lean meat, so that you and the children can eat enough, no, I want to cut four catties of meat." ”

"You're not long gone?" Zhou Zhongying looked at his wife in surprise: "How much does this cost?"

！ ”

"You don't have to worry about money." Gao waved his hand with a big grin: "Master, to tell you the truth, I don't work on the loom anymore, and I have changed to a more profitable business." ”

As she spoke, she exclaimed triumphantly, "Guess how much I get in a month?" ”

"How much?"

"It's three times as good as before, hehe, wait for the spicy food!"

"Ah, so much." Zhou Xiucai was shocked: "Okay, why don't you do it in the weaving workshop...... Where have you been again? ”

"The weaving mill has to work for six or seven hours a day, not to mention tiredness, and there is not much money." Gao smiled: "I have a lot of strength, where can I make money?" To tell you the truth, I went to the erhu master's armory. ”

"What, you went to work under that red-haired man surnamed Wo, bastard!" Zhou Zhongying shouted loudly: "You are a woman and a scholar's wife, so it's just a matter of showing up outside all day long." Now that I have to mix with a group of lowly craftsmen, my old Zhou's face has been lost. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Zhongying shouted in a hurry: "God, the ancestors of the Zhou family, look at it, my Zhou family is going to be finished!" ”

Gao glanced at her husband and shouted: "Say you're fat and panting, don't think that if I call you master, you will treat yourself as a vegetable." I want to stay at home and enjoy the happiness of not leaving the door, but I have to be blessed to enjoy such a piece of waste as you. If you can really feed the whole family, I will naturally stay at home obediently, otherwise, there will be less of your mother's tricks. Even the ancestors shouted, the feng shui of your Zhou family's ancestral tomb is not good, and you were born such a useless thing! ”

"You...... Don't humiliate your ancestors, be disobedient, disobedient! Zhou Zhongying was furious, and threw the book in his hand towards his wife, hitting his wife's face.

Who is Gao, how did he receive this anger, and suddenly the ghost fire surged, and he stretched out a fan-like slap and slapped it lightly on her husband's face, and immediately fanned Zhou Zhongying in a circle.

sneered contemptuously: "If I marry you, a fool who has lost my mind, I will be unlucky for eight lifetimes." If it weren't for the children's face, I would have kicked you out and told you to get out. If you are a man, you have to find a way to support this family, don't stay in the house all day and scold people, what is wrong with the grandson of the marquis, isn't it just that the sky here becomes foggy and the water becomes dark, but the men in the town work in his workshop, and there are always a few taels of silver to get every month, which is not as good as digging in the soil

。 In my opinion, he is a living Bodhisattva, and you still scold the Hou Ye as Cao Cao, do you still have a conscience? ”

"Don't say I don't remind you, curse people in the future, be careful that I continue to whip you." Gao shouted: "I am now working under the Hou Ye, I am his subordinate, and my Gao is also a loyal person." By the way, if you want to revive the husband, it's easy, the imperial court is about to open the imperial examination, why don't you go to take the Jinshi exam and become a magistrate of the county? ”

Zhou Zhongying was so angry that she trembled at his wife's scolding, and at this time she couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted: "I also want to participate in the Spring Festival, but I'm just a showman, not a lifter, and I'm not qualified, what do you know?" ”

"Oh, I forgot, you're just a sour showman." Gao kept teasing her husband: "It seems that my wife's dream can't be realized." That's right...... Now there is an opportunity, since you can't participate in the imperial examination of the imperial court, you can always participate in the imperial examination in Yangzhou Town, right? ”

"Bastard, the imperial examination is a grand ceremony of the imperial court, how can a local prince take the imperial examination, isn't this a rebellion?" Zhou Zhongying slapped the table angrily: "Troubled ministers and thieves, chaotic ministers and thieves!" ”

"Master, you continue to scold, the children are still hungry, I have to hurry to cut the meat." Gao didn't bother to entangle with her husband, packed up her clothes, and strode towards the door.

"By the way......" Behind her, her husband hesitated for a moment and asked, "What is going on with Sun Yuan's imperial examination?" ”

"I'm a woman, and I haven't read Kong Laoer's broken books, I don't know what I know. However, I heard from the people in the workshop that this time Yangzhou Town opened the imperial examination, as long as you are a talent and fame, you can participate. As long as you win, you can become an official immediately. ”

Seeing his wife's high-spirited back, Zhou Zhongying angrily spat on a mouthful of bloody saliva: "Slut, what Kong Er, that's the Holy Master of Dacheng." If I insult the saint again, I will have to take a break......" I thought about it, but my wife couldn't leave it. Otherwise, who will feed themselves? Isn't it a joke to starve to death at home from the seeds of reading.

scolded for a long time, and gradually, his anger subsided. Anyway, I don't know how many times I have been beaten like this in the past 20 years or so, and I have long been used to it.

After sitting in the room for a long time, a kind of eagerness suddenly surged up in my heart: as long as I was selected, I would be able to immediately confer an official position. Moreover, as long as it is a show, you can participate, which ...... Isn't it a good opportunity for me?

No, no, no, Sun Yuan has been revealed, if I go to participate in his imperial examination, I will really win and become an official

。 In the future, he will be crusaded by the imperial court, and I will not be a traitor...... However, Sun Yuan is still the chief military officer of the imperial court, not a thief......

Just thinking about it, my feet slipped, and I sat down.

At this time, Zhou Zhongying came back to her senses and looked fixedly, she didn't know when she had left the house and was walking on the street. His feet slipped and fell to the ground as he stepped into the sewage flowing from the factory next door.

I saw that my hands were covered with black muddy water, and it was really dirty.

He wanted to go home to change into clean clothes, but when he looked up, he saw a small courtyard in front of him, which was the home of his classmates who were taking the college examination in Yangzhou Mansion to pray for the New Year.

This classmate is also a well-off family in Xiting Town, and the year before last, Yangzhou Town requisitioned his family's land by the river to open a weaving factory, and installed more than 100 looms. It is said that the amount of land requisition paid is four times that of normal days.

After Lian Qinian got the silver, his family moved to Yangzhou Prefecture, where he had a sister. It is said that Lian bought land after Yangzhou, and started a business with the compensation money from the Ningxiang Army. His business was somewhat unique, unlike other merchants in Jiangnan who dealt either silk tea or porcelain, but coal.

It is said that he has a little relationship with Yangzhou Town, and after buying coal from Anhui, no matter how many Ningxiang troops want it. Over the past year, life has been smooth, and he has also jumped from a well-off family to a middle class.

It's just that the ancestral tomb of the Lian family can't be moved in Xiting, all, every year when the Spring Festival is approaching, Lian Qi Nian will take his wife and children across the river to worship his ancestors.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and a few days ago, I had already returned to Xiting with my classmates, and I sent someone to invite Zhou Zhongying to come over to eat and talk.

Zhou Zhongying and Lian Qi had a very good relationship before, but since he made a fortune by selling land with his window, Zhou Zhongying didn't like to interact with him very much, and he really couldn't get used to it.

Phew, isn't it just that your piece of land is leaning against the river, and Ning Xiangjun has taken a fancy to it, so what a proud person! If my family's land is also by the river, Lao Tzu will not only die twice as much as compensation, but also six times as much. If that's the case, we're probably enjoying the blessings in Yangzhou City now, and it's your turn to be proud in front of me?

Good luck guys!

At this moment, seeing the courtyard of the Lian family, Zhou Zhongying's heart moved, and said secretly: "Since it is rare for Lian Qi to go back to Xiting in the New Year, it is better to go to him to fight the autumn breeze, who told you to be rich?" In addition, Yangzhou Town can ask about its own imperial examination

。 ”

As soon as he thought of the word imperial examination, he suddenly felt a burst of heat on his body, so he stood up, walked to the door of Lian's courtyard, stretched out his hand and patted the door knocker: "Brother Lian, Brother Lian, you can be at home." ”

Lian Qinian opened the door and saw that Zhou Zhongying was very dirty, and was shocked: "Brother Zhou, why did you do this?" ”

Zhou Zhongying smiled and wiped the sewage on his hand on his robe, and said with a smile: "Brother Lian returned to his hometown a while ago and came to invite me to your house to talk, but unfortunately I have been sick recently and can't see the wind." Today is already very good, so I went to visit him. But I don't want to fall halfway and make it like this, see the laughter, see the laughter. ”

Lian Qinian looked at the sewage flowing on the street, and said with a wry smile: "Our Xiting has been very dirty recently, hurry up and enter the house, don't be cold." ”

hurriedly welcomed Zhou Zhongying into the house, and asked the Hun family to come out with a new cotton robe to change it for him. and told her to quickly tidy up the banquet, saying that she was going to have a drink with her former classmates.

Lian Jianiang said with a smile: "There is no need to rectify the banquet, when Zhou Xianggong came just now, the concubine had already asked Xiaohong to go to the restaurant to order a table of banquets to send it." ”

"Little Red?" Zhou Zhongying was stunned: "Who is Xiaohong?" ”

Lian Qi's rare old face turned red, and he said in a low voice: "The little concubine just accepted is only sixteen years old this year. Old husband and young wife, ashamed, ashamed! ”

This birdman even married a concubine, Zhou Zhongying took a breath of cold air, and his eyes were red with jealousy.

While he was talking, the guy in the restaurant had already carried the burden of sending two steamers of wine and food to Lian's house.

Zhou Zhongying did not shirk and sat down directly.

After sitting down, Lian Qinian and the young concubine Xiaohong and a few children came to visit Uncle Zhou Shi.

is different from the simplicity of the lady of the Lian family, Lian Qinian's concubine Xiaohong is covered in silk and full of bamboo, and several of his children are also dressed as young masters and young masters of rich families.

Thinking of the tattered clothes on her tigress and child, Zhou Zhongying's heart felt sour.

After eating wine for a long time, I saw that it was already afternoon, and snow was falling from the sky.
