Chapter 357: The Villagers' Speculation

Just woke up, his brain was not clear enough, and Bai Mengdie didn't notice the affection in Chen Ziqian's eyes at all.

She glanced out the window, and immediately said angrily, "You won't wake me up when you get to town." Then he got out of the car.

Chen Ziqian also followed her out of the car.

The two went to the market and bought a big rooster that crooked and a big carp with a red tail.

In their country, there is an edible red carp, this red carp is delicious, and anyone who wants to be lucky will buy one of these red carp to cook.

Especially during the Chinese New Year, this red carp is the most popular, and the dish of "more than every year" made with this red carp also means that the coming year will be prosperous, and the color is quite good.

Thinking that the old man especially liked to eat pork belly and pig, Bai Mengdie bought two catties of pork belly and pork liver, and then drove back to the village with Chen Ziqian.

This is the second time that Chen Ziqian has driven his small truck back to the old man's house with Bai Mengdie, which has caused a lot of discussion among the villagers.

They no longer believe in the Bai family's rhetoric, Chen Ziqian and Bai Mengdie just have a very good relationship with classmates.

To say that Chen Ziqian helped Bai Mengdie's family pull goods once before, it was for the sake of the friendship of his classmates, and he reluctantly said it.

But within two days, he accompanied Bai Mengdie back to Bai's house, which is definitely not a classmate relationship.

No matter how good the relationship between classmates is, they will not accompany Bai Mengdie back to Bai's house so often, it is estimated that the handsome young man is chasing Bai Mengdie.

Many people found it unbelievable, but they had to believe it, and they were very surprised that Chen Ziqian took a fancy to Bai Mengdie.

Some people analyzed that in addition to being fat, Bai Mengdie's facial features are still quite delicate, and she looks white and tender, like a boiled egg with a shell, it is not impossible for Chen Ziqian to take a fancy to her, in fact, boys still like girls who are fleshy and smart.

Many villagers are deeply convinced by this analysis, and in the past month or so, Bai Mengdie has become thinner and thinner, and she is getting better and better-looking, and it is very likely to transform into a beautiful girl.

After all, her mother is the factory flower of a large factory with thousands of people, and her father is also handsome and tall, where will she be to the bottom?

The snow leopard was bored sitting in the yard watching the house, and when he heard movement outside, he ran out and saw Chen Ziqian who had just gotten out of the car, and immediately wagged his tail at him happily.

Bai Mengdie also got out of the car, and couldn't help but laugh when she saw that the snow leopard was not only no longer afraid of Chen Ziqian, but also so friendly with him.

This guy was completely taken down by Chen Ziqian with a few pieces of braised pork, and she didn't think that those pieces of braised pork were all from her family.

She pretended to be angry and said to the snow leopard: "Betraying the master so soon? ”

When the snow leopard heard this, he hurriedly ran to her feet and circled around her, and then looked at Chen Ziqian who was not as enthusiastic as he was just now.

Chen Ziqian pursed his lips and smiled, in the end, she is a little girl, no matter how she pretends to be a royal sister, she also has the childish side of a little girl.

On the last day before the college entrance examination, the school holiday allows students to check and fill in the gaps at home, and relax and take the college entrance examination tomorrow in the best condition.

So when Bai Mengdie and Chen Ziqian returned to Old Man Bai's house, Shi Lei was studying in the room.

Hearing Bai Mengdie's voice, Shi Lei came out of the room quickly, not only saw Bai Mengdie, but also saw Chen Ziqian who was following Bai Mengdie, his face was slightly gloomy.

When he saw Chen Ziqian before, he didn't like him, because he didn't want the cabbage he treated as a treasure to be arched by his rich pig.

But since he eavesdropped on the conversation between the old man and the old man, his mood has changed, and when he sees Chen Ziqian and Bai Mengdie together, his heart will be sour.

Bai Mengdie also saw Shi Lei, and pointed out to him the red carp and big rooster that Chen Ziqian was carrying: "Brother, I bought a red-tailed carp and a big rooster and came back, and I will make you two dishes, Fish Leaping Dragon Gate and Blockbuster, please a good fortune, brother will definitely be able to be admitted to the university of your choice in the college entrance examination." ”

The old lady also smiled and said: "Yesterday, your grandfather specially sent a small soft-shelled turtle weighing more than a catty, so that you should stop selling that little soft-shelled turtle, and cook a dish for your brother no matter what, and ask for good luck." ”

Bai Mengdie's voice responded crisply: "Okay." ”

Shi Lei had a smile on his face, asked how the food stall was doing, and then went into the room to continue to work hard.

The old lady asked Bai Mengdie: "Are you going to take the greens and crayfish with you when you come back this time?" ”

Bai Mengdie asked Chen Ziqian to throw the rooster with his wings and feet tied on the ground, and put the red carp in the basin: "No, as long as the crayfish, the greens are gone."

Dad went to the nearby vegetable wholesale market at six o'clock this morning to inquire about the price, and the wholesale price of a large number of greens on the market, such as eggplant and beans, was only two cents a catty, which was lower than the price of vegetables in the countryside.

So our family discussed not to buy vegetables in the countryside in the future, this time the eldest brother and the second brother caught the crayfish back to the city in a small truck, and let the second aunt's family send two hundred catties of crayfish to our family every day, but don't send it in heavy rain, our family can't set up a stall in heavy rain.

I also asked my grandmother's family and my eldest brother's grandmother's family to take turns to send 200 catties of crayfish to our family every day, so that Chen Ziqian would not need to drive a small truck to help us pull goods in the future. ”

Chen Ziqian listened to it on the side, and hurriedly said, "I don't mind pulling goods for you." ”

Bai Mengdie smiled at her aunt: "I know you take good care of our family, but we don't want to go, we use your car, and we let you pay for gas."

Besides, pulling back so many goods at one time, there is no place to put your feet at home, and it is not convenient to work, so I let my eldest brother deliver it every day. ”

The old lady also helped on the side: "How can I always let you help my family haul the goods." ”

Although Chen Ziqian repeatedly said that it didn't matter, Bai Mengdie's ancestors and grandchildren insisted on refusing.

Chen Ziqian had no choice but to give up, feeling a little uncomfortable, Bai Mengdie was still very external to him, and refused to let him continue to help.

The old lady turned her head and said to Bai Mengdie solemnly: "Isn't it good to let your second uncle's family and your uncle's family send two hundred catties of crayfish to your family every day, why do you want to give some crayfish to your second aunt's family?" ”

Bai Mengdie didn't realize the intention of the old lady's words at all, and said with big watery eyes: "Didn't you and your mother say that you have rich relatives to earn it together?"

And now it's busy farming, my uncle's family has a lot of fields, so letting them send crayfish every day will delay the farm work, and it won't affect anything every other day, and there will be additional income. ”

Seeing that Chen Ziqian was present, the old lady had some things that she couldn't say, so she muttered: "How can it be cost-effective to sell crayfish in farming!" ”

Her voice was too quiet, and Bai Mengdie was drinking water again, so she didn't hear it at all.

Chen Ziqian heard it, and quickly understood what the old lady meant, and leaned close to Bai Mengdie's ear and said: "Grandma means that fat and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, and if you have money, of course, you must make it by your own people first, little fool!" ”

Bai Mengdie was stunned, looked at Chen Ziqian, and then looked at the old lady.

The old lady looked at her with a gaze of "outsiders know better than you".

Bai Mengdie pondered in her heart, although Li Yuhuan's maiden family and her family are also relatives, they actually belong to the kind that can't be beaten by eight poles, and she really doesn't need to help them so much.

Anyway, there are only a few of them at home now, and it is still too late for her to regret it.

Bai Mengdie looked at the old lady and said, "Then let my grandmother's family and my second uncle's family each send two hundred catties of crayfish to my family every day." ”

Seeing that she had figured it out, the old lady nodded with satisfaction: "You can arrange it this way." ”

Bai Mengdie thought to herself that she didn't arrange it at the beginning, because she was alone in her previous life, and she had no concept of relatives, so she would have to pay attention in the future.

Seeing that the old lady was about to go out with an empty basket in her right hand, Bai Mengdie asked with concern, "Grandma, is your arm better?" ”

The old man had a fracture, and the recovery was very slow, but the old lady didn't want Bai Mengdie to worry, so she smiled and said, "It's much better." Then he went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables, and by the way, he called the two Bai Sheng brothers back to catch crayfish.

Bai Mengdie sent the small cloth bag she was carrying into her room and put it away, went into the kitchen to boil a pot of boiling water, and commanded Chen Ziqian to kill the big rooster.

Chen Ziqian had never killed a chicken, so he wouldn't, staring at Bai Mengdie with a pair of eyes.

Bai Mengdie patted her head: "It's all my fault, I forgot that you are the noble son of a big family." "Shouted out Shi Lei to kill the big rooster at the top of his throat.

She took the three-pound red carp to the pond to kill fish, and Chen Ziqian immediately followed her closely like a tail.

Bai Mengdie killed the fish, Chen Ziqian squatted aside and watched, and asked her if the fish was a koi.

Bai Mengdie was about to lose to him: "The koi is much brighter than this carp, and the body of the koi is round, and the body of the edible carp is flat, it is obvious that the two are different, you can actually see the same, admire and admire!" ”

Chen Ziqian looked stunned: "When you say this, the difference between koi fish and edible carp is really quite big." ”

He saw that Bai Mengdie had left the fish bubbles behind, and asked, "Why are you staying with this fish bubbles?" ”

Bai Mengdie looked at him sympathetically with mentally retarded eyes: "Of course it's for food, is it for you to blow up a balloon?" ”

"......" Chen Ziqian said he was surprised, "You can also eat fish bubbles!" ”

"Of course!" Bai Mengdie put the killed carp into the pond to clean, "Don't you know that the fish maw you rich people eat is actually the dried product of fish bladder, which is similar to my fish bubble, except that it is a high-profile version and a low-profile version." ”

Chen Ziqian looks like a "long knowledge".

Bai Mengdie washed the fish and put it in a basin, Chen Ziqian took it, and the two went home together.

Shi Lei has already killed the chicken and is plucking the fine fluff on the big rooster.

Bai Mengdie saw it, asked him to continue studying, and called Chen Ziqian to pluck the fine hair on the big's body, and Chen Ziqian happily agreed.

Shi Lei looked at him deeply, and then went back to his room to study.

Because Bai Mengdie and Chen Ziqian were in a hurry to rush back to the city, lunch was started early, and all the people working in the fields were called back for lunch at eleven o'clock.

Bai Mengdie made a plate of spicy chicken, a soft-shelled turtle soup, a braised red carp, a plate of bean belly, a plate of stir-fried pork liver with sharp peppers, and a few green vegetables, and everyone sat around for lunch.

The chicken wings and chicken heads are all Shi Lei's, and everyone wishes him a blockbuster and flying high.

The soft-shelled turtle soup was also placed in front of Shi Lei, wishing him a leader.

The old man also smiled and asked him to eat more carp: "If you are admitted to the university, you will have a city hukou, and you will no longer be from the countryside, and our Bai family and your Shi family will also have a scholar." ”

Bai Mengdie thought to herself, it is not difficult for Shi Lei to become a city person at all, just move the household registration to the city with Tian Chunfang, and you can discuss this matter with Bai Aiguo when you go back.

Shi Lei smiled and put the carp tail and carp head in his bowl.

The two old men particially gave Bai Mengdie and Chen Ziqian one each, and asked Bai Mengdie: "Your mother didn't come back with you, is she busy with business?" ”

Bai Mengdie took a bite of the chicken leg and nodded: "Opening a food stall is easier said than done, it takes a whole day to make preparations, and then pull it to the stall to sell, and every day you have to sell it until late at night before you can come back." ”

The old lady looked at her distressedly: "Your family has only been selling food stalls for a few days, and you have lost a lot of weight." ”

"Really?" Bai Mengdie happily reached out and touched her cheek, "The thinner the better, I can't wait to be thin." ”

The old man asked, "How is your family's income in the past two days?" ”

"Earn more than 1,000 yuan a day!"

Li Yuhuan exclaimed enviously: "Earn so much!" ”

"Hmm." Bai Mengdie replied and put down her chopsticks, "Grandpa doesn't mention whether the business is good or bad, I can't remember to pay you the money I bought vegetables and crayfish last time." ”

The old man said kindly: "Don't worry, eat lunch first and then give money." ”

Bai Mengdie picked up the chopsticks again and continued to eat.

The old lady asked, "Do you want to take the corn with you this time?" If you don't pick the corn at home, it will be old, and it won't taste good when roasted. ”

Bai Mengdie thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, let's take all the corn away this time." ”

After eating a sumptuous farmhouse lunch, Bai Mengdie took out a cloth bag from the room and took out the money from it one by one.

"Grandma, this is the money to buy your vegetables twice, a total of more than 200 catties, but my parents are calculated according to 300 catties, a total of 90 yuan."

The old lady took the money happily: "No matter how many catties of money, you have to give me more~"

Bai Mengdie smiled, and took out another sum of money to hand it to Li Yuhuan: "The second aunt's family has sold our family two crayfish plus today's crayfish, a total of more than 600 catties, and sold more than 100 catties of vegetables once."

Our family occupies a little bit of the second uncle's family, all calculated according to the whole number, 600 catties of crayfish, 300 yuan, 100 catties of vegetables, 30 yuan, a total of 330 yuan. ”

Li Yuhuan took the money and said with a smile: "Look at what you kid said, we are touching the light of your family, and you are talking about taking advantage of us." ”

The old man smiles with satisfaction, and Fluttershy is getting better at talking.

Bai Mengdie told her the accounts of the vegetables and crayfish sold to her by Li Yuhuan's two brothers, paid her the money, and asked her to transfer it to her brother and sister-in-law.

His grandmother's money Bai Mengdie was handed over to the old man, and the old man took the time to send it to her grandmother's house.

In the end, Bai Mengdie handed over 3,000 yuan to Li Yuhuan and his wife: "My mother has been thinking about borrowing money from the second uncle and aunt, this is the money our family has earned by setting up food stalls in the past few days, my mother asked me to bring a part of the second uncle and aunt first, and the rest of the money will be paid back immediately." ”
