Another day passed, and the locusts in Dujiagou's field were almost wiped out. These days, the eldest aunt and the third aunt have never shown up on the ridge, and the people who deliver water and food are the uncle and the third uncle. Du Mei didn't care about them, and only did what he did to help others on weekdays. Wei didn't even see a shadow, and even the water was sent by Du Shu.

Du Mei buried herself in work and didn't say a word, but the villagers were upset for her, and every time she met with the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, there were no good words in or out of the words, and they always had to sneer at them.

After dinner that day, Qian Maoda and Erzhuzi came, and they had already driven the duck back to Chen Qian Village. Qian Maoda came to hand over to Du Mei, and he took out the small bookkeeping book to show Du Mei. After Du Mei carefully proofread it, she copied another copy, thinking that if the yamen allocated a subsidy at that time, this would always be a proof of work.

"Uncle Maoda, do you want food or money?" Du Mei asked as he refilled a cup of tea with a teapot.

"Look at this posture, the price of autumn grain will increase eighty percent, but I still want some money, and my little grandson always has to eat something good." Qian Maoda didn't know what to choose for a while.

"Or else, half of each?" Dumay asked tentatively.

"If that's the case, it couldn't be better, but the county lord is afraid that it will be troublesome." Qian Maoda's face twitched, and he wanted to laugh but didn't.

"It's okay, I have a grain store, if you want money, I'll exchange it for you at 10 wen a liter." Du Mei smiled comfortingly at him.

"That's a good idea." The corners of Qian Maoda's eyes smiled at this moment.

"Meizi, your duck has laid eggs?" The second stunned man asked in surprise.

When Du Mei and Qian Maoda were talking, Du Gui quietly told the good news to the second stunned, and he asked in disbelief.

"yes, big and good." Du Mei smiled and nodded.

"It's not even July yet, and your duck is laying eggs?" Qian Maoda is an expert in duck farming, and it is customary for ducks to lay eggs at least after August and a half.

"It's not true. Guizi, go get a few and show them to Uncle Maoda. Du Mei turned to the little sister and said.

"Whoa." Du Gui ran to the granary and grabbed two of them one by one.

"These duck eggs are really good. Large, thick shell, not empty. Qian Maoda looked at it again and again, and then took the duck eggs and shone them at the oil lamp.

"It's all plums fed well!" The second stunned man also played with the other, he didn't understand the doorway in the duck egg, but he could see that the ducks of Qian Maoda's family were not as good as Du Mei's.

"Meizi, do you have a male duck in your duck flock?" Qian Maoda suddenly asked.

"Yes, there are five or six big male ducks, maybe they have eaten." Du Mei laughed. Strange to say, these marijuana ducks, obviously with a strong body, were managed by the female duck of Dabai.

"In autumn, I plan to go to your house to choose some eggs to hatch duck seedlings, and you must keep some for me. As for the price, it's definitely better than if you sell fresh eggs. Qian Maoda thought in his heart, if the villagers knew that the eggs belonged to Du Mei's family, I am afraid that this year's duck seedlings would not be sold at all.

"This ...... Uncle Maoda, the price of eggs is easy to say, and I want to discuss something with you, when you hatch duck seedlings, can you hatch them for me once? I want to keep the ducks of this breed of Big White. Du Mei said with a deep groan.

"Okay, what's so hard about this, it's just a matter of passing." Qian Maoda readily agreed.

"Thank you so much." Du Mei said gratefully.

"How many eggs have you collected? There are fresh eggs

Is it marketable? Qian Maoda paused, remembered this stubble, and hurriedly asked.

"There are hundreds, I'm busy with village affairs these days, and I can't leave." Du Mei lowered his head and took a sip of water.

"There is a Laifu grocery store on the south street of Qinghe County, I have been friends with Boss Bian for many years, if you want to sell duck eggs, just report my name." Qian Maoda patted his chest and said.

"How much do you sell for duck eggs in the store?" When Du Mei heard this, he was happy and hurriedly inquired about the price.

"In previous years, when I sent it to his store, I received it for a penny." Qian Maoda is also a warm-hearted person, helping Du Mei Zhang Luo.

"One article, this is too cheap!" The second stunned man held the duck egg and snorted lowly.

"Your duck eggs are sold for this price, indeed...... It is indeed a bit of a loss, but the eggs are only sold for a penny and a half, and the price of this fresh egg is limited. Qian Maoda glanced at Du Mei, for fear that she would raise the price of eggs.

"There's no rush for this, I'll go out and see it myself in a few days." Du Mei frowned, she didn't expect that the duck that she had worked so hard to raise had laid eggs, but the price of duck eggs was lower than expected.

"My eggs ......," Qian Maoda looked at Du Mei with a blank eye.

Duck seedlings are sold for two pennies a piece, the villagers are still too expensive, buy ten and send another one, remove the cost of eggs and the food of duck seedlings and the sick ducks and weak ducks that can not be sold, and the duck business in a season can not make any money.

"Uncle Maoda, don't worry, whatever price you have elsewhere for the eggs, I will give you whatever price I will give." Du Mei gave him a reassurance.

Just as they were chatting happily, the courtyard door was suddenly slammed.

"Who, so late?" The second stunned sat by the door, he turned his head and walked towards the courtyard door, and asked impatiently.

"It's me, Black Dragon!" The black dragon said in an anxious tone.

"What's wrong? Big night, don't bring so scary! The second stunned man hurriedly opened the door.

"Why are you here? What about plums? The black dragon asked as soon as he entered the door, and without waiting for the second stunned answer, he raised his feet and walked towards the hall with the lights on.

"Brother Hei......" Du Mei blinked, how did they come to her house one by one as if they had made an appointment.

"Meizi, I heard that you are home, and my brother has come to beg you." The black dragon sat on the chair.

"What do we want or not, what the hell is wrong with you?" Du Mei poured him a warm cup of tea.

"You also know, my ruined girl, didn't she buy the land with all the money from selling ice, and some time ago she tried her best to save me, but she didn't sell it.

Now there is a plague of locusts everywhere, and all the ten acres of land have been smashed into their hands. Now, if you expect the two of us to exterminate the locusts, it will be more difficult than ascending to the sky, so my brother has the cheekiness to ask you for help. When Hei Jiaolong said this, he was a little angry with Pang Zi, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea as if he was drinking.

"This ...... I ......" Du Mei didn't expect that the black dragon was also coming for the locusts, and she couldn't speak.

At this time, I heard Du Gui running out and screaming: "Sister, my mother called you." ”

Du Mei wondered in her heart, if she had friends on weekdays, the Xu family would not care about her. Thinking of this, Du Mei hurried to the back room. Hei Jiaolong, Qian Maoda, and Erzi looked at each other in a daze, not knowing what taboo they had committed.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Du Mei stepped into Xu's room and saw that Xu was weeping, but she was frightened.

"Meizi, your father is gone, we can't have one less in our family

Xu Shi saw Du Mei come in and said resentfully.

"Where does this start, aren't we fine?" Du Mei sat down next to Xu, intending to comfort him.

"You think if you don't say it, I don't know!" Xu raised his hand and lifted the hair on Du Mei's forehead, and a bruised mark was still there.

"Mother, you know?" Dumay choked in his throat.

"You are the meat that fell from your mother's body, how much it hurts on your body, how much it hurts in my heart!" Xu's tears rolled down.

"Mother, don't be sad, I'm not doing well." Du Mei lay in Xu's arms and wiped her tears.

"Then you promise your mother, don't go out to exterminate locusts, you are a girl's family, and it is not easy to do this part." Xu Shi pressed his eyes with a handkerchief and stopped the tears.

"But ......" Du Mei wanted to speak and stopped, she couldn't choose, her mother was really worried about her and didn't want her to be in danger, and the black dragon was her friend, and her friend was in trouble, so she had no reason to stand idly by.

"Du Mei, if you insist on going, I will go with you!" Xu Shi is determined to tie Du Mei this time.

When she came back from delivering duck eggs, she found a wound on Du Mei's forehead. It was only in a hurry that day, and before I had time to ask, Du Mei left. In the past few days, Du Tao was resting at home, and she asked her sideways, and finally knew what happened.

"Then I'll go out and talk." Du Mei whispered. She knew that Xu was really angry, otherwise she wouldn't have called her by name.

"Meizi, does my aunt disagree?" Seeing Du Mei coming out dejectedly, the black dragon hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"She knows everything about my last time, and she is afraid that I will have an accident again, so she will not allow me to go out!" Du Mei said helplessly.

"This brother is very raw, which village are you from?" Qian Maoda's mind moved, and he came up to ask.

"I am a native of Hanshan Town, so this uncle naturally doesn't recognize me." The black dragon clasped his fists and saluted.

"Hanshan Town is more than eighty miles away from us, Meizi, your ducks really can't go." Qian Maoda's fingers tapped on the table.

"What do you mean by that?" The black dragon asked eagerly.

"Meizi's ducks have opened their nests and laid eggs one after another, and the eighty-mile road can be regarded as a long journey for ducks, and fatigue and travel will directly affect the number of eggs laid and the quality of eggs." Qian Maoda said with a serious face.

"What can I do?" The black dragon ripped off his hair, he had come with the confidence that he would succeed.

"Uncle Maoda, otherwise, use your duck to go for a run." Du Mei said carefully.

"It's not that I don't help, Hanshan Town is so far away from us, for more than ten acres of land, ducks can't afford to toss!" Qian Maoda shook his head and refused.

His ducks have eaten locusts, and these days they are like being blown out, and they are strong one by one, and if they are raised like this, they will probably be able to pick up duck eggs in July and August.

"No, no, no, Hanshan Town is not just us, if you go, the village and the surrounding villages will invite you, not to mention one or two hundred acres." The black dragon clasped his hands together and shook it again and again.

"This ......" Qian Maoda was moved, if his ducks were fattened by locusts again, I am afraid that the time to lay eggs would be further advanced.

"Uncle Maoda, you can agree, I heard that there is a military camp stationed in Hanshan Mountain, and Hanshan Town is governed very well." Du Mei couldn't go by himself, so he helped Hei Jiaolong persuade Qian Maoda. 2k reading web
