Chapter 88: The Big Egg

Yang Guifeng twisted his eyebrows, "I don't know, I only know that two or three families have them, but there are not many." But don't worry, the younger brother often runs around the village, he should know who has it. ”

"What about the little brother?" The two of them had been out of the house for a while, and Ye Zhenzhen couldn't help but look back.

"My little brother went to the field, and my mother asked him to go down to the field to help weed."

Soon, the two of them came to the field together.

When Jiang Ying, Teng Jianxiu and other middle-aged women work, they like to get together the most, gossip while working, don't feel tired and don't talk, and time flies quickly.

As an unmarried girl who is getting older and older, Yang Guifeng, who came in to work with Jiang Ying, was always asked by the three aunts and six mothers-in-law what kind of husband she wanted to find, and Yang Guifeng was very impatient to work with Jiang Ying and them.

So when she shouted at Little Brother Yang and Ye Zhenzhen to a remote place, Jiang Ying and the others did not react.

"Little brother, do you know whose chickens in our village lay more eggs?"

"You know, what's wrong?"

Brother Yang is too young, Ye Zhenzhen and Yang Guifeng are afraid that he will reveal secrets, so they have never told him the truth, as for those yellow eels and snails, they have always concealed him on the grounds that they had made things and sent them to Ye Zhenzhen's cousin.

"Little brother, can you go and buy some eggs for me and the big guy?"

"What do you buy eggs for?"

Eggs, that's a good thing to eat, as soon as Brother Yang heard that Ye Zhenzhen wanted to buy eggs, his eyes lit up.

The yellow eel is not easy to catch, it is cold, and his mother does not allow him to go down to the river to get snails and fish and shrimp, he has not tasted Sister Zhenzhen's craftsmanship for a long time.

Seeing Little Brother Yang's greedy appearance, Yang Guifeng couldn't help but slap him on the head.

"What do you care so much about? If you want to buy it, you can go, do you want to eat good things with us in the future? ”

Junior Brother Yang hurriedly slapped Yang Guifeng's waist, "Why are you beating me?" I just asked, and I didn't say I wasn't going. ”

Yang Guifeng saw that he actually dared to fight back, and raised his hand and was ready to beat him.

Seeing this, Ye Zhenzhen hurriedly raised her hand to stop Yang Guifeng.

"Little brother, you go and buy me forty eggs and come back, and I'll give you steamed egg custard to eat at night."

When Brother Yang heard this, he smiled, lost the small hoe in his hand and prepared to run.

Ye Zhenzhen hurriedly stretched out her hand and grabbed him by the collar.

"Wait a while, go later, if someone asks you why you buy so many eggs, you say I bought them and sent them back to my hometown. If others ask me more carefully, you will say that my mother is going to give birth to my younger siblings, and I will buy them back for my mother to make up for her body. ”

Anyway, the house is far away, and no one knows what the situation is at her home, so it is most appropriate to use this as an excuse.

*

Originally, Ye Zhenzhen and Yang Guifeng were worried that Yang Xiaodi was young and unreliable, and they were afraid that he would not be able to buy eggs, and in the end, the two of them had to come forward themselves.

But they never expected that not long after Yang Xiaodi went out, someone actually came to the door of the village chief's house with a basket.

"Comrade Xiao Ye, I heard that you want to buy eggs, I have them here."

"I also have a dozen or so here, do you want Comrade Xiaoye?"

Six or seven women came to the door, and each basket contained more than twenty eggs, and as few as seven or eight.

“……”

The two men looked at each other, and each was a little flattered.

It's too easy, too.

"Aunts, I ...... I'm going to buy eggs, but how do you sell your eggs, can you tell me about it? ”

Hearing this, the women discussed with each other and squinted at Ye Zhenzhen.

"We occasionally sell it to the supply and marketing cooperatives or in the city, and it's basically three cents a piece."

Three cents a piece, Ye Zhenzhen thought silently in her heart, she met the aunt who sold eggs before, she went to the city to sell eggs at a price of about three and a half cents, and bought them in the village, saving her from running away again.

"Okay, if you want three cents, I'll have them all."

It's not easy for countrymen to raise chickens and save a few eggs, and Ye Zhenzhen doesn't want to worry too much about them.

Soon, one by one, they handed over the eggs and took the money, and left the Yang family happily, leaving only one person, holding the basket tightly with both hands, and the smile on his face was a little rigid.

"Auntie, your ......"

This expression, are you willing to sell it, or are you not willing to sell it?

Ye Zhenzhen didn't understand.

Yang Guifeng looked at the man's face, but his heart was tight, and he couldn't help but secretly pull Ye Zhenzhen's clothes.

"Of course I have to sell them, but my eggs are bigger than theirs, and I can't sell them for three cents."

Ye Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and remembered that the eggs now are indeed sold at the top, so she smiled.

"Then you let me see what your eggs look like."

She is not stupid, and she also felt Yang Guifeng pulling the hem of her clothes, and the eyes of the person in front of her were rolling, and she was not an honest person at first glance.

Hearing Ye Zhenzhen's words, the woman opened the veil on the basket, revealing a basket of eggs inside.

Ye Zhenzhen squinted her eyes for a while, obediently, I am afraid that there must be twenty or thirty eggs in this basket, she clearly remembered that everyone opened it for her just now, and there were no more than twenty at most......

"Guifeng, how much have we bought now?"

"Forty-seven."

Looking at the basket of eggs, Ye Zhenzhen was very tempted, but the amount was so large, Ye Zhenzhen intuitively felt that something was wrong.

"Auntie, you see I'm just buying dozens of them for my mother and sending them back first, there are already forty-seven here, you have so many, I may not be able to ask for them."

When the woman heard this, she grinned.

"Comrade Xiaoye, this sheep is released, and a group of sheep is also released, why are there dozens of them missing me? I'm thirty here, you see, how many eggs are so even, can you buy such good eggs in someone else's house? I don't want you to pay too much, just three and a half cents, and if you want them all, I can give you a penny less. ”

Seeing this, Ye Zhenzhen reached out and picked up an egg, comparing it with the eggs of those people before.

Hey, it's really bigger.

Three and a half cents, it's really not expensive.

But Ye Zhenzhen looked at the smile on the woman's face, and always felt that something was strange and a little unwanted.

"Auntie, I don't want so much, if I buy some, the rest of you won't be able to sell when you go into the city, or you might as well bring them into the city and sell them."

As soon as the woman heard Ye Zhenzhen's words, her face immediately sank.

"What do you mean by that? You have bought everyone else's, but you don't want any of mine, you ...... Aren't you openly looking down on people? ”

The woman snatched the egg from Ye Zhenzhen's hand, glared at Ye Zhenzhen angrily, but did not leave.
