Chapter 171: Eggs
"Milk, should we buy more food and come back?"
Niu Niu touched Wangcai's dog head and seemed to mention it inadvertently,
"Grandpa, they all said that there might be a drought this year, let's stock some food? Just in case? ”
"Wait two more days! If it doesn't rain again, let's go! I guess the price of food has gone up a lot! ”
"Hmm."
Niuniu saw that her grandmother had a plan in her heart, so she didn't say more.
After waiting for a while, the rice will be more or less harvested, and it will not be lost.
It should be enough for a family to save money!
Niuniu looked at the hot sun above her head and sighed.
"There's milk! Don't worry about it! You go to the backyard to see how many eggs there are today, and you don't even have time to pick them up in the morning. ”
"Okay."
Carrying the basket, Niu Niu carefully pushed open the fence.
After all, it's stealing other people's children, so you should be cautious.
"Cluck-cluck-cluck-cluck-"
Someone should have come in and been disturbed, and the whole chicken coop was called a lively, like a market.
"Wang-"
Wangcai called out and tried to help Niuniu out of the predicament.
And then the successful cause of the backlash ...
"One, two, three..."
Niuniu looked at the dozen or so eggs that she had finally picked up in the basket, and she was very satisfied.
It may be that they were fed small fish and shrimp or something, and they are nutritious, and the Su family's eggs are extra big than others.
Tomorrow is the market, the family has already collected a few waves of eggs, it's time to take them to the town to sell.
The effort is finally paying off!
Although it is a very small amount of money.
Niuniu is still very happy in her heart.
This is my own fed!
The previous methods also made money for themselves, but they always felt that they were not solid, and their hearts were not very stable.
When you get the money from selling eggs, it should feel very different!
"Milk, how many eggs are there at home?"
"There should be eighty or ninety of them, and I'm thinking about going to the market tomorrow to see who will go to town and help us sell them."
Grandma Su didn't expect to be able to raise so many chickens successfully, and she didn't spend too much food.
"Milk, let's go by ourselves! I want to sell it myself! ”
By the way, I went to the town to inquire about the news, and everyone worked in the village, and I didn't know anything.
Niuniu wants to know how many places there is a trend of drought, or if this situation has already occurred, and whether it is serious or not.
The land is the life of the farmer, and if something goes wrong. The stability of the country in the past few years must have been broken, but I heard that the frontier has been eyeing it.
The Great Qi is still stable, and they still have to harass the frontier from time to time. If there is a widespread drought, they should be even more unable to hold back.
"Then I have to ask your mother and aunt if they have time to take you there, they are also very busy!"
The vegetable fields have to be watered and weeded almost every day. The weeds are brushed together when they don't see each other at night, and the speed is called fast.
The two piglets are also becoming more and more edible, and they have to go to hunt pigweed every two days.
Because she had to take care of a few plots of land and the livestock raised at home, the two of them were very busy.
"My mother is not free, my grandmother will take me! Let's go and see if the price of food has risen, if it rises sharply, we will buy it in advance. ”
"And our eggs are so big, I want to sell them for half a penny more! If you sell it to an aunt, won't it be a trouble for others? ”
"Sell for half a penny more? Will anyone come and buy it? ”
Grandma Su thought that her eggs were big, and it didn't take much effort to sell them, just shout twice casually, so as to trouble others.
And it doesn't matter if you can't sell out, just bring the rest back.
"Of course someone will buy it! The price of food has risen, and of course the price of eggs can also rise! And our eggs are so good! ”
Niu Niu is not ashamed.
"Let's go to Grandpa Lin's house in the evening and ask."
Grandma Su was afraid that she would be soft-hearted, so she agreed.
There's been a lot of going on lately, and everyone is so busy that their feet don't touch the ground.
Grandma Su also spends most of her time helping with the family's work, helping to clean up inside and out.
If they are not there for a day, the daughters-in-law will be tired a lot.
"Grandma, let's go all morning, and we'll be back soon!"
"When everyone comes back and discuss it together, I can't just answer you!"
"Okay~"
Niuniu walked away dejectedly, and Wangcai also bowed her head.
It seems to be aware of the owner's low air pressure.
"This kid—"
Grandma Su shook her head, but still gave up comforting.
I didn't refuse directly, I just wanted to talk to the old man.
According to the temper of the old man, he still can't agree.
Besides, Niuniu has been running with her in the past few days, and she hasn't called a tired word.
Going to town or to get down to business, can you disagree?
It's good to take a little blow, it's hot weather, and your heart can be quiet...
If Niuniu knew that her grandmother thought so, she would probably be angry and calm...
didn't get a response, Niuniu silently found a place to work.
As soon as summer arrives, there are more mosquitoes.
Niuniu picked a bunch of mugwort leaves and mosquito repellent grass and tossed, hoping that she could be more comfortable at night.
"Niuniu, see what good things grandpa brought you back?"
In the evening, Grandpa Su returned with the sunset.
Niuniu was smoking mosquitoes under the tree with a serious face, and when she heard Grandpa Su's shout, she immediately put things away, and the mosquitoes were pinched to death...
"What's good?"
Niu Niu smiled with a flattering face.
She hadn't forgotten that her grandmother had to ask her grandfather's permission to go to town.
You have to behave well.
"Come and see!"
Grandpa Su hid his hands behind his back with a mysterious expression.
"It's coming!"
Niuniu cooperated with the fart and ran in the direction of Grandpa Su.
Grape?
"Niuniu hasn't eaten it this year, has it? Grandpa was chopping wood in the mountains today, and just in time, he saw a grape! ”
Grandpa Su picked one up and put it in Niuniu's mouth,
"Grandpa washed by the stream, come, taste!"
"The others aren't very familiar, but this string is good. Grandpa picked it back for you, is it sweet or not? ”
Grandpa Su looked expectant.
Even though he had already tasted one on the road, he still had a heart. I'm afraid that I won't be able to eat it if it's not sweet, which will make Niuniu hope and disappointed.
"Sweet!"
Although it doesn't look very good, it's still very sweet.
Maybe because of the weather, the skin is a little wrinkled, but the moisture is still there, but it is insufficient.
"That's good, that's good! Take it all and eat it! After two days, the rest should be ripe, and grandpa will pick it for you when the time comes! ”
Grandpa Su smiled dotingly.
Su Qiang followed behind his father, wanting to speak and stopping.
What chopping wood, what accidentally saw.
Obviously, I went to look for it on purpose, and I almost had to go into Daqingshan...
"By the way, Niuniu's herbal grandfather also brought you back! At your father's place, all you have to do is take it! ”
"Grandpa is so good, grandpa eats it too!"
Niuniu picked up the grapes and stuffed them into her grandfather's mouth, and Su Qiang's heart was sour...
Where are the fruit trees...
Su Qiang searched in his memory...
