Chapter 187: Killing Pigs (I)
On the same day, the old man Zhou received two thousand taels of silver tickets and wrote a receipt to the shopkeeper Hong. As for those gifts, Zhou Ziya directly carried them all back to her room, even including some food brought to her by Shopkeeper Hong.
Of course, she wouldn't admit that she was careful, after all, it was her grandfather who told her to bring everything back to her room.
As for the two thousand taels of silver tickets, they caused a big storm in the Zhou family that day. There was a constant discussion about what to do with the money. Zhou Ziya dared to swear with her conscience that she would definitely see her mother, the kind of green and faint look that appeared in Xiao Zhou's eyes.
In the end, after being excited for most of the night, it was decided that the silver ticket was still kept by the Zhou family, and after the New Year, he asked the village chief to find a spacious place in the village to build a soy sauce workshop. As for the address, let's continue the discussion. Because the fat pigs fed at home are almost New Year, and it is time to sell them, they have already told the pig killer that they will sell the pigs the next day. And he had to kill his own family, without delaying too late, everyone slept separately, of course, there were a few people who really fell asleep, and there were a few people who slept peacefully, so it was not Zhou Ziya's consideration.
"Mother, how many pigs are you going to sell today?" Zhou Ziya asked with small steps while eating snacks.
"All the pigs in the family were sold, and the remaining one was killed for their own food, and the rest were all sold." Xiao Zhou replied, Zhou Ziya handed two pieces of dim sum to Xiao Zhou's hands, and she, a mother, took it and ate it directly without any hesitation.
Today is not only Xiao Zhou's happy, but even Shen and Li are also very happy. This year, my mother-in-law said that she would kill a whole pig for the New Year. Just thinking about it makes them happy. In the past, pigs were also fed at home, but they were generally sold, and in the end, they only kept a few dozen catties of meat at most.
"Big uncle, second uncle, eat snacks." Zhou Ziya saw that the two aunts also handed over the snacks.
"Hey, Xiaoya is such a good boy." Both Shen and Li happily took it. Xiao Zhou pouted beside him, but he didn't say anything weird.
Because they were going to sell pigs today, several men in the family did not go up to the mountains to collect firewood, and all of them stayed at home.
It didn't take long for the pig killer Liu to come, and Zhou Ziya remembered the matter between him and the high widow when she saw this pig killer Liu. And she now remembers that this pig-killing Liu has a fierce and fat daughter-in-law. The previous brother's plan has not yet been implemented, this pig killing Liu is the best candidate, immediately squinted his eyes, made up his mind in his heart, and stared at the pig killing Liu's eyes full of ill intentions.
Pig Killer Liu felt chills all over his body, looked around strangely, and didn't find anything strange, so he entered the yard.
"Old man Zhou, congratulations, congratulations. Your family is really amazing, you actually fed a few pigs, I heard that one by one is fat, this village is definitely this, the first household. Pig Killer Liu walked in with a knife killing tool and immediately praised him. As for whether the pig was real or fake, he had not yet seen.
"Polite, polite, so-so. Several daughters-in-law in the family fed well, and the pig grew some meat. As you know, it's not easy to feed a bigger pig. "Old man Zhou put the credit on several daughters-in-law. Of course, this is also true. Although the pigs at home are lined with the bean dregs, there are also a lot of pigweed. The children of the family help to beat pigweed, and several daughters-in-law also have to help.
