Chapter 14 A greedy man like her won't give up
"Sister-in-law, you said so much, it's nothing more than wanting some wild boar to go back, but what did the sister-in-law give us when we split up The sister-in-law should know better than us in her heart, I and the second tiger brother still rely on these wild boar meat to survive, so I can only give the sister-in-law a piece to take back and taste it with the eldest brother, if the sister-in-law hasn't eaten enough, she will also go up the mountain with the eldest brother to hunt," Shu Xiaobai looked at Jiang up and down, and said: "Sister-in-law's physique, maybe you can shoot a big wild boar back." ”
"Hey, little white girl, you really know how to laugh." Knowing that Shu Xiaobai was laughing at her for being fat, but the meat didn't get her hands, Jiang could only hold back her anger and say.
Shu Xiaobai ignored her anymore, turned around and went into the house to take down a piece of meat strips, and handed it to Jiang: "Here, sister-in-law hurry up and go back and fry it for the eldest brother." ”
Jiang saw a large piece of meat hanging on the windowsill behind Shu Xiaobai, and couldn't help but show a greedy gaze, she really wanted to take it all, but what Shu Xiaobai said was reasonable, so she couldn't find a reason to take it all away, and besides, she also saw that Shu Xiaobai was not easy to bully yesterday, so let's get this piece of meat in her hands first.
After taking the meat, Jiang reluctantly left.
Shu Xiaobai stared at Jiang's back and thought, she wouldn't give up, she had to quickly replace those meat strips with other food and hide them.
But how do you turn meat into food?
There was a coughing sound behind him.
Shu Xiaobai turned around and saw Jiang Erhu leaning against the door panel and looking at her, and smiled slightly: "Did you hear it?" ”
Jiang Erhu nodded, Jiang's voice was so loud, and he was so keen, how could he not hear it, but he didn't think Jiang was too annoying, and he also wanted to see how Shu Xiaobai would send her away.
He didn't expect Shu Xiaobai to give Jiang a piece of meat to take away, he thought that Shu Xiaobai would directly refuse Jiang.
He said lightly: "You shouldn't give it to her, a greedy person like her won't give up." ”
Although it was agreed not to interfere with her work, she always had to be reminded.
Shu Xiaobai smiled: "I thought of it a long time ago, so I have to turn this meat into food and hide it." ”
Jiang Erhu was stunned, is she a fairy? It can turn this meat into food.
"I'll figure it out."
After lunch, Shu Xiaobai sat on the head of the wasteland, while letting the E bracelet soak up the sun to recharge, while thinking about how to turn meat into food.
Fortunately, my cousin took into account the charging conditions when designing the E bracelet, and adopted the method of sunlight energy to charge the E bracelet, which ensured the normal use of the E bracelet.
This will also be boring, so I opened the E bracelet and asked: "Little E, how can I turn meat into food?" ”
"You can sell the meat for money and use it to buy food."
Shu Xiaobai's eyes lit up, oops, this little E's head is really high-tech, and the answer is quite accurate, why didn't she expect it, shouting around the village, there should be someone willing to buy meat.
After having an idea, Shu Xiaobai couldn't sit still, and when the E bracelet was charged, he got up and walked towards the village.
She definitely can't rush to ask from house to house, she has to go to Aunt Hu to discuss it first.
Shu Xiaobai, who was looking for Aunt Hu and didn't want to see the little cow, saw the calf playing on the side of the road, and hurriedly stepped forward.
"Maverick, calf."
The little cow was squatting on the ground and watching the ants move things, when he heard the call, he looked up and immediately shouted happily: "Sister Xiaobai." ”
Calling Uncle Jiang Erhu and calling her Sister Xiaobai, isn't this a mess of generations? Shu Xiaobai wanted to laugh, but he didn't bother to correct him, and asked him, "Why are you playing here alone?" What about the others? ”
"You haven't come home for dinner yet, Sister Xiaobai, do you want to watch the ants move?"
Shu Xiaobai shook his head and touched his head: "Little Niu, it's not enough to just like to watch ants move, you have to learn some truth from it." ”
The little cow looked up in a daze: "What truth can ants understand when they move?" ”
Shu Xiaobai squatted down, pointed to an ant and a small piece of cake crumbs, and said, "Look, can this ant alone move such a big thing?" ”
"Definitely not, the bread is so big, the ants are so small."
"Yes, one ant can't move it, but can many ants move the crumbs? Let's do an experiment. ”
Shu Xiaobai took a piece of cake crumbs and put it in the ant pile, and after a while, he saw the cake crumbs move.
"It's really moved." The calf screamed in amazement.
He often watched the ants move, but he didn't look at them as closely as he did.
Shu Xiaobai smiled and said, "What does this mean?" It shows that the power of one person is not great, but the power of a group of people becomes great, right? ”
The little cow somewhat understood: "I know, just like once my father drove the ox cart and it rained, and he couldn't push the ox cart alone when it fell into the puddle, and then called a few people to help push it up." ”
Oops, this kid is so smart and understands so much, it's a shame not to go to school.
Shu Xiaobai felt a little sorry in her heart, and she also strengthened her idea of running a private school.
"Sister Xiaobai, are you looking for my grandma?" The calf's question interrupted Shu Xiaobai's contemplation.
She smiled and nodded, "Yes, Maverick is so smart, can you help me call her out?" ”
"Sister Xiaobai, you don't want to tell my grandmother about my mother, but my mother doesn't listen to my grandmother." The calf said with a bitter face.
Hey, the mother who is not worried also makes the child very worried.
Shu Xiaobai shook his head: "Don't worry, I won't sue your grandmother, I have something else to do with your grandmother." ”
The calf smiled: "Okay, I'll help you call my grandma out." ”
Shu Xiaobai waited for a while, and then saw Aunt Hu coming over with the calf.
"Auntie." Shu Xiaobai greeted him.
Aunt Hu looked apologetic: "Xiaobai, I really couldn't stand you yesterday." ”
"Auntie, yesterday's events have passed, let's not mention it, I have something to discuss with you today."
As soon as Shu Xiaobai told Aunt Hu about the idea of selling meat, Aunt Hu immediately agreed, and then she became worried again: "Xiaobai, I'm afraid that every family can only buy catties to satisfy their hunger for meat, and they can't buy much." ”
"Auntie, that's the case, you quietly find some good people and tell them, I will exchange a piece of meat for rice and noodles, not silver."
"As long as the rice and noodles don't need silver, it's much easier." Aunt Hu was relieved.
This family makes a living from farming, and although they don't have much land, all they can get out is grain.
and Aunt Hu finalized that she would go to the contact's house, and Shu Xiaobai went home to distribute the meat.
Shu Xiaobai didn't expect how much rice and noodles could be exchanged for these dozen pieces of meat, so she should respond to emergencies first and then think later, but she didn't expect that Aunt Hu's appeal was very strong, everyone was very cooperative, and the rice and noodles given were very sufficient, and in the evening, she kept a piece of meat to eat at home, and the others changed a whole bag of rice and a bag of noodles.
Great, Shu Xiaobai looked at the rice bag and noodle bag in front of her, and couldn't help laughing, after she came back, she told Jiang Erhu that she wanted to exchange meat for rice noodles, Jiang Erhu didn't believe it at all, she had to call him over to show off.
"Is anyone home?"
Hey, there's someone out there.
Shu Xiaobai walked out of the stove room and saw an old man standing at the door, looking around the house, although the sun had not yet set, there was no oil lamp, the room was very dark, and he naturally couldn't see anything.
This will, Jiang Erhu must also prick up his ears and listen.
"Uncle, do you have something to do with coming to my house?" Shu Xiaobai stepped forward.
The old man turned around: "I heard my nephew say that your family exchanging wild boar meat for food, come and have a look." ”
When he spoke, the old man's eyes couldn't help but look up and down at Shu Xiaobai, very strange eyes, but Shu Xiaobai could feel that he had no malicious intent.
It should be that he knew that she was married to a cripple to look at her like this, Shu Xiaobai shrugged his shoulders indifferently, his eyes fell on the old man's hand, it was actually empty, didn't he say that he wanted to come to exchange food?
She nodded politely: "That's it, I'm sorry, uncle, the meat has been changed, you're late." ”
The old man showed a disappointed expression on his face: "In this way, my mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have never eaten wild boar, and I want to buy some and try it." ”
Seeing that the old man was wearing a semi-new robe, very neat and clean, with a ruddy complexion, and a better personality than the people who came before, and heard him say to buy it, Shu Xiaobai pondered for a while and asked, "Uncle, are you ......?"
"I'm the housekeeper of the Zhang family, just call me Uncle Zhang, my nephew changed some wild boar meat at your house in the afternoon, go back and fry it and send a bowl to my wife, the old woman and the girl think it's very fragrant and let me come over to buy a few catties, since there is no one." The old man turned to leave.
is actually the chief housekeeper of the Zhang family, if you have a good relationship with him, then you shouldn't have to worry about eating and drinking in the future, how could Shu Xiaobai let go of such a good opportunity, and immediately stopped him: "Uncle Zhang, I still have a piece to eat at home, you wait for me to get it for you." ”
Without waiting for the old man to respond, Shu Xiaobai turned around and went into the house to take the wild boar meat and handed it over.
Uncle Zhang was a little surprised and smiled: "How can this work, keep it for your own food." ”
Shu Xiaobai said generously: "Uncle Zhang, don't worry about taking it, there are many on the mountain." ”
Uncle Zhang was amused by Shu Xiaobai's words, this girl is very good at things, it seems that the Jiang family is looking for a good daughter-in-law for that kid, so that Liu Er can also ...... He glanced at Shu Xiaobai deeply and took the pork: "In this way, I'll give you a tael of silver to buy this piece of meat, can you see if it's enough?" ”
Uncle Zhang took out a broken piece of silver from his arms and handed it to Shu Xiaobai.
Oh my God, it was the first time she saw what the money in this world looked like, Shu Xiaobai suppressed the excitement in her heart, thought for a while and said, "Uncle Zhang, one or two pieces of silver is a bit too much, but I don't have any silver to find you, do you think this is okay?" How about I get you a hare or pheasant again? ”
Even if this meat is worth a tael of silver, she has to say so, the purpose is naturally to have the next deal with Uncle Zhang.
Uncle Zhang's face was slightly surprised, this girl didn't take advantage, it was even rarer, so he bowed his head and said, "It's better this way." ”
After Uncle Zhang left, Shu Xiaobai greeted the sunset, held up the broken silver, looked left and right, and laughed.
I thought that I could only change some rice and noodle seasonings in the village, but I didn't expect that there would be a payer.
In fact, just now she no longer gave the old man a hare, and the old man was also willing, but the Zhang family was the richest in this village, and the old man was the housekeeper of the Zhang family, and the Zhang family's food and drink supply must pass through his hands, in order to cooperate for a long time, she must be generous.
After seeing enough, Shu Xiaobai smiled and entered the house with the silver.
