Chapter 3 Go to the county seat and sell rabbits

Back in the deserted house, Li Xiaoting killed the pheasant in three or two clicks.

The pheasant was very fat, and she brushed the iron pan over and over again with chicken fat to completely remove the rusty smell before pouring the chicken into the pan and stir-frying.

Stir-fried meat is easy to do without oil, the meat itself has oil, but without salt, the taste of cooking is really difficult to swallow, fortunately in the landlord's mountain picked wild peppers and small trees.

The small tree is also called Puyan, and its branches and leaves and fruits are salty and sour. Pour the small arbor fruit and wild pepper into the pot and fry the chicken together, the taste is sour and spicy, for the two sisters who have no oil and water in their stomachs, this taste is comparable to the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and they are happy to eat.

The little wolf was attached to Li Xiaoting's feet and gnawed on the bones, Li Huiting was still a little afraid of it: "Second sister, you haven't come out of it for so long, I thought you were eaten by a wolf, but I didn't expect you to come back with a little wolf, aren't you afraid that it will bite?" ”

Li Xiaoting smiled: "My reputation is so bad, the wolves are afraid when they see me, how dare they eat me?" It bites and bites bad people. ”

Li Xiaoting came out of the landlord's mountain for so long because she found a hot spring, she took a bath in it, washed her clothes, and dried it on the fire before putting it on.

The original owner's dirty body and clothes, she really can't stand it.

"There are a lot of wild products, wild fruits, wild fowl, and wild vegetables in the landlord mountain...... Continue inside tomorrow. Today I went to the county seat and sold the hare. Li Xiaoting said.

It's not enough to just have food, you have to have money, Li Xiaoting looked at Li Huiting's scratched face, frowned slightly, and had to buy an ointment to apply if she made money, otherwise the wound would become inflamed and thick, and the face would be ruined.

A big pheasant and the two sisters ate it quickly, Li Xiaoting put the little wolf at home, wrapped the two rabbits in a shabby cotton jacket and set off for the county seat.

The original owner has been to the county seat several times, and with his memory, it took two hours to finally get to the county seat.

At this time, in Li Xiaoting's eyes, the county seat was very backward, just like the economically underdeveloped towns in the previous life.

But compared to the people of this era, this is a big city!

There are shops, state-owned factories, and buildings made of mud or red bricks.

When he arrived at the county seat, the original owner came directly to the vegetable market.

It was four o'clock in the afternoon, and the people in the city began to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and make dinner.

After the reform and opening up, the whole country implemented the practice of "dividing the land into households and assuming responsibility for their own profits and losses," and the people could trade privately, as long as they were not speculative.

Even if they speculate, they still turn a blind eye, they are afraid of living a poor life, and everyone wants to live a life of food and clothing.

Li Xiaoting came to the vegetable selling area, found a place, and took out the hare.

She was holding a fat rabbit in one hand, and when she saw someone, she asked if they wanted to eat a hare.

She asked for a long time, and finally a woman stopped, looked at the rabbit and then looked at Li Xiaoting: "Is it really a hare?" ”

Li Xiaoting smiled: "Eldest sister, I dare to swear to God, really!" ”

Li Huiting also said: "The second sister went to the mountains to catch it, and she also caught pheasants, and we ate pheasants, which are delicious." ”

The woman is from the city, and the conditions for raising chickens and ducks are limited, and when she heard Li Huiting say that there are pheasants to catch, her eyes lit up: "Can you catch the old pheasants?" ”

Her lover suffered from rheumatism, and every winter she cried out of pain, and the old Chinese medicine doctor asked her to boil more pheasant soup for him to drink, which warmed his body and joints, which could alleviate his pain.

Li Xiaoting smiled sweetly and sincerely: "You can catch pheasants, but I won't see if it's an old pheasant, if you want it, big sister, I'll catch a few chickens another day, what do you want?" ”

The eldest sister smiled happily: "Okay! Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow? ”

"Come here and look for me this time tomorrow."

"Good!" The eldest sister reached out and touched the rabbit, and said with a smile: "It's really fat, it's good to eat rabbit meat on such a cold day." ”

"Eldest sister, rabbit meat strengthens the spleen, cools the blood and detoxifies, rabbit meat is also known as beauty meat in foreign countries, eldest sister, your skin is so good, eating more rabbit meat will definitely make you younger, more beautiful and younger!" Li Xiaoting said with a smile.

The words of praise, even if they are not true, some people love to listen to them, and the women were like eating sugar in their hearts when Li Xiaoting said it, and said with a smile: "You little girl, your mouth is so sweet." Okay, I want these two rabbits, how do I sell them? ”

"Eldest sister, don't hide it from you, I have always been a parent before, I have no concept of prices, now my parents are dead, leaving me and my sister to depend on each other, in order to make money I caught hares to sell in the county, I have been standing here for a long time, only to meet the warm-hearted you, how to sell you to look at how? I mainly want to earn some money to buy ointment for my sister, and if I don't apply some ointment, her face will be ruined, and it will be difficult to find my in-laws in the future. ”

Li Xiaoting is not selling pity, she is telling the truth, the original owner is a stupid brain, she has just arrived here, and she doesn't know the current prices, if she was in the previous life, these two rabbits couldn't be bought without five hundred yuan.

She can't ask her eldest sister for 500 yuan, right? She didn't know about the current prices, but she also knew that meat couldn't be sold so expensive, but she wouldn't sell it cheaper than pork.

When the woman heard her say this, she put her eyes on Li Huiting's face, "Mother, why is this face rotten like this?" ”

Li Huiting suddenly felt aggrieved in her heart, and tears flowed out immediately, how can a girl not like to be beautiful? If your face is scratched, will you become ugly in the future?

Li Xiaoting smiled bitterly, and didn't say the reason why Li Huiting's face was scratched, she looked at the woman: "Eldest sister, how much do you say two rabbits cost?" ”

The woman wanted to buy these two fat rabbits at a low price, but she heard Li Xiaoting say that she had no father and no mother, which was really pitiful, and said: "The bred rabbit meat usually sells for two pieces of eight cents and a catty, you are a hare, how about I give you three?" ”

"Great!"

The two rabbits add up to a total of eleven catties, and Li Xiaoting earned thirty-three yuan!

Li Xiaoting is a person who has seen a lot of money, and she doesn't feel like anything when she holds thirty-three yuan in her hand, but Li Huiting has grown so big, and it is the first time she has seen so much money!

She was so excited that it was a bit like a dream, and her brain couldn't ease up for a long time, they were rich?!

Li Huiting looked at Li Xiaoting stunned: "Second sister, you have changed and become powerful." ”

Li Xiaoting rubbed Li Huiting's head: "No matter how powerful it is, grandma, they are going to sell us to perverts." ”

Thinking of her grandmother, Li Huiting couldn't help but feel fear.

took the money, and under the introduction of the eldest sister who bought the rabbit, Li Xiaoting and Li Huiting came to Renhetang Pharmacy and spent three yuan to buy two ointments.

Li Xiaoting opened one in the pharmacy and applied it to Li Huiting, and the ointment was applied to the wound, which was cold and tingling, and Li Huiting shook her shoulders.

Li Xiaoting looked at Li Huiting's face and said, "In a while, we will go and buy a quilt, oil, salt and some spices, and we will also buy a few catties of rice." ”

Li Huiting swallowed her saliva: "Can I cook a meal after buying rice?" I haven't eaten in a long time. ”

When Li Xiaoting heard this, her heart was inexplicably sour, and the children of poor families in this era have become a luxury to eat white rice: "Yes, we will eat rice tonight!" ”

Li Xiaoting asked the owner of the pharmacy where there was a quilt that could be bought without a ticket.

The owner of the pharmacy showed her the way and told her which street, which alley, and which door there was a master who made quilts, which were not expensive, and there was no need for a ticket.

After Li Xiaoting thanked her, she took Li Huiting out of the pharmacy and walked in the direction pointed out by the boss.

There are many households on this street, and it is not as lively as the street, Li Xiaoting was looking for the house number, and when she passed by a house, she saw that the other party was asking a feng shui master to survey the feng shui of his house.

In her previous life, Li Xiaoting relied on feng shui to eat, and when she came here and met her peers, she couldn't help but be interested, so she stopped.

Hearing that the feng shui master wanted the main house to change the gate and change the courtyard door, Li Xiaoting took a few steps back, looked up, and looked at the two-and-a-half-story building.

The building sits north to south, and the courtyard gate and gate are open in the auspicious position.

According to the feng shui master, if the gate and the courtyard gate are moved, it will not only destroy the "auspiciousness", but also bring disaster to future generations.

Li Xiaoting's eyes fell on the feng shui master, the other party was wearing an old Tang costume, holding a compass in his hand, and a long beard, talking endlessly, his eyes floating, and he looked like a person who was not deep.

This kind of person really does not mean Feng Shui, but money.

At this time, a pregnant woman came out of it.

I heard that the feng shui master chose the day and time for the house to start construction.

Li Xiaoting counted the time, that is, the construction will start next week, there are pregnant women at home, and the walls and bricks are demolished, are you not afraid of tire gas?

The pregnant woman walked up to the main house and asked worriedly, "Daddy, will tearing down the wall affect the fetus?" ”

Before the master could speak, the feng shui master said frivolously: "No! You've been doing this for more than six months, and it won't affect you! If the gate and courtyard gate are moved, it can turn things around, and it will definitely be a boy who is born! ”

"Nonsense!" Li Xiaoting didn't want to meddle in things, but after listening to the words of the feng shui master, she really couldn't see death and not save her, so she strode over: "The gate of the gate is already open in the auspicious position, and moving it will not only destroy its own 'auspiciousness', but also bring disaster to future generations!" I don't dare to say whether forcibly tearing down the wall will have an impact on the fetus, but there will definitely be no reversal! ”
