Then, after talking about stealing the gourd, I got back to business.

The aunt of the Lin family said enthusiastically, "I'm really embarrassed today, or else, you want a few piglets today, my man is not here, I am in charge, sell it to you cheaper." "

"Let's not talk about whether it's cheap or not, I'm going to get the scripture of feeding pigs from your family, and if you want to say that this pig, your family feeds it really well." Xu Zhangshi boasted, "The spirit of each top! Her aunt, what's the trick? "

"Wow, what's the trick." When it comes to raising pigs, the eldest lady of the Lin family has come to the spirit, and the matter of adding swallows feels grateful, which is exactly what she knows and is speechless, and her words are endless.

"First of all, the house is well ventilated and cleaned up, and then, the aspect of eating should also be paid attention to, if you are free, try to cook food to feed the pigs, but also pay attention to food matching, pigs seem to eat everything, omnivorous, in fact, some things will be strained and sick after eating, and pay attention to ......"

People in the countryside have experience in raising pigs, but compared to those who do this professionally, they are naturally worse, and the aunt of the Lin family did not hide it, and said a lot of her own experience.

"I'm going to have all four piglets." After listening to this, Xu Zhangshi was very satisfied, and it was not too early, so he wanted to go back early, "Aunt her, give me a price?" "

"All of them? Yes! Yes! The aunt of the Lin family said happily, "Generally, we sell twenty-two yuan a catty, since the old lady has spoken, then twenty yuan a catty, right?" I'm really embarrassed that this girl has caused you trouble, Yanzi......"

The pig cub is twenty-two wen a catty, this Xu Zhang's family knows, and this price is still a dead price, if you make a counteroffer, people will not sell you, because the pig cub is not worried about selling at all, and some people want it.

Twenty wen a catty, there is indeed the meaning of compensation for the Lin family's aunt.

"Oh, thank you for that." Xu Zhang was also happy, and he didn't shirk it, so he weighed it on the spot.

Four little piglets, a total of more than fifty-two catties, the aunt of the Lin family wiped the odds and collected the usual forty dollars.

Both parties were satisfied and said goodbye happily.

He also asked the swallow to give them a ride, and sent them out of the village before going back.

On the way back.

Xu Zhang used a back basket to pack two little piglets, and Erlang also carried two.

Xu Jiaojiao was considerate of her mother and wanted to help Xu Zhang's carry it, but Xu Zhang's didn't let her carry it, "What are you carrying?" You walk on the side, the old lady still has the strength, not old yet, you can move, this is our piglet, is our family's future white flowers of silver, I will carry it, you save dirty hands, back a pig riot. ”

The clothes on the old girl's body are all sent by the He family, and the new clothes are dirty and washed with water, and they are old with water, and they can't be done.

Dirty work is tiring, as long as she can still do it for a day, then she will not let Xu Jiaojiao do it.

Erlang on the side also said, "Auntie, you just walk, don't be heavy." ”

Xu Jiaojiao was helpless.

Well, let's go with an empty backpack on your back.

Xu Zhang's said, "Don't say it, this Lin family really has a hand in raising pigs, and the survival rate of the little piglets is high. How many years have their family raised pigs, especially raising sows, piglets have special experience, our family will raise pigs all year round, the demand is large, it is best to feed the sows, when the time comes, to the Lin family to learn from the experience......"

"Well, the Lin family seems to be quite kind." Xu Jiaojiao replied, "At other people's homes, they answer everything, and they don't hide it, and the swallow girl in their family is also quite clever." ”

Speaking of swallows, Xu Zhang's also echoed, "It's clever, it's the gourd that stole our family." ”

Xu Jiaojiao said with a smile, "Mother, didn't you say it, you have also checked, it should be some angry seedlings who have not grown up, wilted heads, and useless." ”

"Then she can't just take our family." The loss is naturally nothing, and Xu Zhang's heart is a little bit of a diaphragm.

"The gourd is worth a few dollars, forget it, mother, are you still a girl, and her temperament is a little wild. But she has a good heart, I was bitten by a snake that day, she may have gone to dig herbs, and secretly sent me medicine at night, she is a good child. ”

In the countryside, stealing something from the field is actually really common, usually in very small quantities, such as a cucumber, two tomatoes, or something to satisfy your cravings. The swallow stole a bit more, but if most of them were dead seedlings that didn't grow well, it wouldn't be nothing.

Erlang, who rarely spoke, also opened his mouth at this time, "Milk, their family has given us a lot cheaper piglets, which is worth the gourd money." ”

Xu Zhang glanced back at him strangely. She actually didn't think about it, how much was the gourd worth? It was that the old girl was bitten by a snake, she felt uncomfortable, and today she said that the swallow girl sent medicine to Xu Jiaojiao at night, so hearted, it can be regarded as making Xu Zhang's anger dissipated.

Now it's just a few family members chatting casually, and there is actually no dissatisfaction with that girl in my heart.

As a result, it was Erlang who opened Chrysostom and heard him speak for outsiders for the first time.

Erlang was embarrassed by Xu Zhang's and lowered his head.

Xu Zhang was about to say something when someone behind them called out to them.

"Aunt Xu, Aunt Xu......"

Xu Jiaojiao and the others looked back, and saw a middle-aged woman wearing red and green pinching a handkerchief and chasing after her.

When Xu Zhang saw it, his face was full of smiles.

"Hey, isn't this Sister Wang? Sister Wang, where are you going to work! ”

This is a matchmaker in the neighborhood, whom Xu Zhang knows.

Xu Zhang's is now very enthusiastic about the matchmaker, and there are many girls and boys in the family who have reached marriageable age, and every time they see the matchmaker, they are all smiling, polite and kind.

Mrs. Wang trotted all the way, and the powder on her face fell all the way down.

Ran in front of Xu Zhang's family, Xu Zhang's said, "Hurry up and wipe your sweat, ouch, what's so urgent, it's a hot day." ”

Mrs. Wang smiled while wiping her sweat with a handkerchief, "Didn't you just happen to see Aunt Xu?" And the ...... of the delicate girl Hehe, thinking that I haven't seen Aunt Xu for a long time, I came up and said a few words to you and the delicate girl, in the season of loquat ointment, we sold a lot of fruits at your house, thanks to the care of your family, they were all received, don't you want to say a few words of thanks? ”

Xu Zhang said politely, "Where is it, loquat paste is a matter for the benefit of the township, and the fruit does not fall from the sky, but also you pick it one by one." ”

Both of them were affectionate, and Mrs. Wang praised Xu Jiaojiao again, and Xu Jiaojiao also greeted her.

Mrs. Wang stared at Erlang again, "This is your Erlang!" ”
