Chapter 042 Calculation

Xiao Ruo helped Xiao Ru send the firewood to Aunt Jiang's yard, and Aunt Jiang was very upset when she saw it, and said, "Xiao Ru, you don't have to chop firewood, the firewood at home is enough to burn." ”

Xiao Ru went into the kitchen and scooped a scoop of cold water for Xiao Ruo to drink, and said to Aunt Jiang with a smile: "I am used to getting up early, and when I got up, I didn't have much work to do, so I cut this bundle of firewood by the way." ”

Aunt Jiang nodded secretly, as small as this child's mouth is skillful and can speak, obviously she just doesn't want to take advantage of her, so she deliberately went to chop wood, but she didn't say anything, she only said that she cut it easily, so as not to tell the truth and the two sides will be separated.

Xiao Ruo drank water, Xiao Ru sent her out of the hospital and was still sending it, Xiao Ruo asked strangely, "Why are you still following me?" Are you afraid that I will get lost? I'm going home by myself! ”

Xiaoru said solemnly: "Just these few steps, I will send you to the gate of your courtyard and I will leave." ”

Xiao Ruo saw Xiao Ru so insistent, although she was puzzled in her heart, she still let her.

When she arrived at the door of Xiao Ruo's mother-in-law's house, Xiao Ru watched Xiao Ruo walk in, pulled her throat and said to the yard: "Sister, if you are beaten, you must run out, let the villagers see how your mother-in-law and your man beat you for a bundle of firewood, we will never be beaten in vain!" ”

Liu Hui's mother and son both picked up a wooden stick, and waited to teach Xiao Ruo a good lesson, and threw the wooden stick when they heard Xiao Ru's words.

I thought, wait until breakfast and then fight, just like last time, I will pick up clothes and beat them under my clothes, so that outsiders don't see the injury, and I can really call a girl to be scared, and if I don't fight, I won't fight?

Not only do you have to fight, but you also have to starve Xiaoruo's food, and see if this dead slut will dare to face her in front of outsiders with her thorny sister!

As soon as Aunt Liu made up her mind, she heard Xiaoru's voice loud at the gate of the courtyard again: "Sister! I know you are honest, some people are ruthless, I just yelled that I was afraid that people would be on guard, not pick your arms, legs and face to hit these exposed places, pick up your body and beat, so that outsiders can not see your injuries, I told you that I will check your whole body, as long as there is a little injury, I will fight with them! ”

Xiao Ruo glanced at Liu Hui's mother and son who were glaring at her fiercely, and was scared, so she walked to the gate of the courtyard to push Xiao Ru, pretending to be relaxed and said: "Okay, why is a big girl so spicy!" Let's go back to breakfast. ”

Xiaoru refused to leave, and shouted loudly into the yard: "I also want to prevent others from starving my sister's food, as long as I see my sister lose weight, I won't follow it!" "After saying that, I left.

Aunt Liu was so angry that she grinded her teeth, Xiao Ru's words blocked all the ways she planned to teach Xiao Ruo a lesson!

Xiao Ru finished yelling and then returned to Aunt Jiang's house, Aunt Jiang had already taken care of Xiao Jian and washed.

Breakfast was a sweet potato porridge left over from the little brothers, and it didn't need to be hot on a hot day, and the three of them ate a big bowl by themselves.

After breakfast, Xiao Ru rushed to wash the dishes, by the way, he heated the dishwashing water, chopped the pigweed that was beaten back, and mixed it with some Mikang, and washed it with hot dishwashing water to make it pig food.

Xiaoru had contact with the countryside in his previous life? It's okay to let her water the vegetable patch and hoe the grass, but let her feed the pigs, she stinks, but now she is a rural girl and can't afford not to do this work.

Aunt Jiang sprinkled some ground corn kernels to feed the chickens, while the ducks foraged for their own food, and when they came back in the evening, they just had to eat a meal of chopped wild vegetables.

In the previous life, I read those time-traveling novels, and pigs could grow up by eating pigweed, but Xiaoru traveled to the 80s to know that it was not the case at all, and after the pigweed was chopped, it must be mixed with some rice bran to adjust the pig food, otherwise the pigs would not eat it at all.

Every household in rural areas has rice bran, which is the waste left over from processing rice, which is used as pig feed.

Xiaoru's brother and sister didn't ask for rice bran when they separated from the Lin family, so they couldn't eat Aunt Jiang's rice bran every day, and she didn't want to raise pigs, so she just sold it.

Those chickens and ducks are all laying eggs, but it's a pity to sell them, Xiaoru plans to continue to raise them, and wait until the Chinese New Year to buy a large piece of meat for Aunt Jiang to return her chickens and eat her family's broken corn.

After feeding the pig, Xiao Ru took Xiao Jian out of the door, first went to the gate of Xiao Ruo's house, called Xiao Ruo out, and asked her if she was beaten or hungry, Xiao Ruo shook her head and said no, Xiao Ru turned under her clothes, only the old wound did not see the new injury, so she put her mind at ease and told her that she was going to sell the pig.

Xiao Ruo knew that she had no feed to feed the pigs, so she said regretfully: "Your pig is already fat, and it will grow to at least one or two hundred catties for a few months until the New Year, and it can be sold for a few more dollars, and the price is also high during the New Year." Forget it, it's inconvenient for you to live in someone else's house to raise pigs and chickens, so sell it. "Tell her who to find to sell the pigs.

Xiao Ru found Guan Butcher according to Xiao Ruo's instructions and told him that she was going to sell pigs.

Guan Butcher asked whether to sell live pigs or kill them and sell them again, Xiaoru of course sold them alive, and if he killed them and sold them again, he would stain Aunt Jiang's yard.

Guan Butcher followed Xiaoru's sister and brother to Aunt Jiang's house, and saw that Xiaoru's pig hair was shiny, and lively and active, thinking that it would be quite cost-effective to buy the whole pig, and he could make a lot of money just by raising it for a few months for the New Year, and he bought it at a price of four cents and five cents per catty.

Aunt Jiang went to the vegetable field to water the vegetables, and found that someone had watered them, guessed that it was Xiao Ru who did it, and came back from picking the vegetables to be eaten at noon.

Xiaoru smiled bitterly: "It's too troublesome to raise pigs, I don't want to raise them." ”

Aunt Jiang immediately understood that she had no rice bran and couldn't raise pigs, and her family's rice bran was only enough for her own pigs to eat, so she couldn't help her, so she could only watch her sell the pigs.

Xiaoru's pig was tied to a rope and weighed on the scale, a hundred catties were almost a hundred, and the butcher Guan sympathized with Xiaoru and gave her forty-five yuan according to one hundred catties.

Such a big pig was sold for only forty-five yuan, which strengthened Xiaoru's idea that she didn't want to stay in the countryside, she was tired and tired, and she couldn't make money by farming and raising pigs, wouldn't her brother and sister have to struggle on the poverty line for the rest of their lives? This is not the life she wants!

It was still early to sell the pigs, so Xiao Ru took Xiao Jian to pick peanuts in a field in a nearby village.

In Liujia Village and Linjia Village, except for the peanut fields of the Lin family, the peanut fields of other families were all picked up by her sisters and brothers.

It is said that it is a nearby village, and it takes more than half an hour to walk, and the villages on the mountain are very far apart.

The two sisters and brothers found a peanut field that the owner had collected and picked up the peanuts, and some villagers passing by would look at her two sisters and brothers strangely, and a few peanuts could be left in each acre of peanut land, and it was thankless to pick up those peanuts.

But what can she do, as soon as people cross over, they will open all kinds of hanging, making money is like picking up money, she is still struggling on the poverty line after crossing, struggling to eat a full stomach.
