Chapter 052: When I Say Four, I'll Four
After using the meal, Kou Zhenge didn't stay long, the two of them packed up the things at home, looking at the neat pigsty and chicken pen, Xi Menglan felt a little happy in her heart.
"Juncheng, wait a minute, accompany me home."
Xi Menglan said a word to Kou Juncheng, who was washing his hands next to him, and then went into the house to change into clean clothes and come out.
"I'll have to change it too, look at the dirt on my body."
Kou Juncheng patted his pants as he spoke, and it was dusty in an instant, so he didn't need to look at it.
Xi Menglan nodded, sat next to the stone mill, and thought about what was on her mind.
Kou Juncheng brought the donkey cart, Xi Menglan locked the door, and the two of them went straight to Daliushu Village.
Xi Menglan on the road was thinking about things, and she didn't talk much, it was much quieter than usual, Kou Juncheng secretly glanced at her twice, and saw that she was so distracted, and he didn't bother her.
"Go to Fat Auntie's house."
When she arrived at the entrance of Daliushu Village, Xi Menglan took Kou Juncheng's arm and said, not to go back to her parents' house, but to go straight to Aunt Fat's house, which made Kou Juncheng feel strange.
The donkey cart stopped at the door of the fat aunt's house, looking at the person sitting under the windowsill sharpening the knife, Xi Menglan knew that this was the fat aunt's man.
"Uncle, at home."
Xi Menglan looked at the person with a smile on her face and greeted enthusiastically, she had the impression that Meng Lan was such a person, and she couldn't make others suspicious.
The fat aunt's man watched Ximenglan and Kou Juncheng walk in, put down the work in his hand, wiped his hands with the apron on his body, and walked over to greet him.
"Ah, Meng Lan and Juncheng are here."
The fat aunt was also wearing an apron, opened the curtain and was about to splash water, and when she saw the two of them, she walked over with a smile on her face.
"Come inside, don't stand here, it's so hot in the sun."
The fat aunt's man raised his hand and made a gesture of please, and the two of them did not refuse, and entered the house one after the other.
The fat aunt was busy making tea, and the fat aunt's man was sitting next to him fiddling with the things in his hand.
"Fat aunt, don't get it yet, we don't drink, we are here today to discuss something with you and uncle."
Xi Menglan went straight to the point to show her intentions, and the fat aunt put the tea next to them, and leaned against the cabinet, listening to Xi Menglan with a serious face.
"I don't want to raise pigs, these two days we have built the pigsty, just waiting to buy piglets, these two days I have kept inquiring, the best pig seedlings near us are the old Guo family I want to come and go, we are young, I don't know the quality of pig seedlings, I want to let my uncle help us palm."
As soon as the fat aunt's man heard this, he quickly put down the things in his hand and looked up at Ximenglan's side.
"Are you talking about the old Guo family in Shanglou Village?"
"Yes."
Simonlan looked at him with a serious look on his face.
"I know that the old Guo family only seeks profit in business, but his family's pig seedlings are really good and are known in ten miles and eight villages, I am not young and don't understand this, my uncle has ......deep qualifications in this area."
Before Xi Menglan finished speaking, she was interrupted by the fat aunt next to her.
"It's also a good thing that the child wants to raise pigs, I think it's okay, you will follow the child one day, and besides, you still have a little weight in front of the old Guo family, and the price will be tilted for the children."
"That's easy to say, but I have to say the first, this pig is not like anything else, it eats more and more every day, how can you two have so much food to feed?"
The fat aunt's man looked at Xi Menglan and Kou Juncheng, and the worry in his eyes was looming, as if he was telling the two of them not to raise them to the end, and starve the pigs to death without food and rice.
"Then you can rest assured, we have our own plans."
Hearing what Kou Juncheng said this, the fat aunt and her family breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and nodded, which can be regarded as a matter of coming down.
It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, seeing that it is still early, the fat aunt proposed to let them go to Shanglou Village to see it now, and by the way, call Lao Mengtou, and help when the time comes, the pig seedlings are not light.
In this way, the man who drove the donkey cart to pull the fat aunt, as well as Lao Mengtou, the four of them went straight to Shanglou Village under the sun, and listened to the fat aunt's man talk to Lao Mengtou about pig raising along the way.
At first, Lao Mengtou was not particularly willing for the two of them to raise pigs, firstly because they had just started a family and had little experience at a young age, and secondly, because of the current shortage of food, they were afraid that they would not be able to feed them in the later period.
Xi Menglan and Kou Juncheng had planned before they came, and their worries were dispelled in two sentences, and they chatted quite happily along the way.
When they arrived at Shanglou Village, there was no need to ask, the fat aunt's man pointed out the way and took them to Lao Guo's house.
As soon as the donkey cart stopped at the door, she smelled a foul smell, and looked around, a large pile of pig manure was piled up in the distance, Simonlan frowned, and forced herself into the yard with the pungent smell.
I thought it would be better to enter the yard, but I didn't expect it to be more serious, from the moment I entered the gate, to the position of the windowsill, there were all pigsties, and there were ten pigs in each pigsty.
"Aren't they all big pigs here?"
After looking at the pigsty one by one, Xi Menglan turned her head to look at the people of the old Guo family and asked.
"The pigs are in the shed over there, come, go this way."
The people of the old Guo family were polite, looking at Xi Menglan and leading the way in front after they finished speaking.
The big guys all know that the people of the old Guo family are giving face to the fat aunt man, according to the past, they have to have too high chins and nostrils to look at people.
Passing along the side of the house, the yard behind it was covered by a plastic shed, and there were four pigsties, all of which were piglets.
Lying at the door of the pigsty, Xi Menglan was dazzled, some bouncing, and some three or five lying together squinting and sleeping, the more I looked, the more I liked it.
"I wonder how many of you want to catch this time?"
The old Guo family man looked around at everyone, pointed to the little pig in the pigsty with a smile on the corner of his mouth and asked.
The fat aunt man turned to look at Xi Menglan, Xi Menglan glanced at Kou Juncheng, and finally his eyes fell on the old Guo family.
"Four."
"Why do you buy so much?"
Old Mengtou didn't know that she was going to raise so many of them, and originally thought that it was at most two, but when he heard this, he pulled Xi Menglan aside with a face full of surprise, and he didn't know what to say after her.
With a smile on her face, Xi Menglan nodded, and walked back this way, following the person to determine the number of heads.
"When I say four, it's four."
"Good!"
When the people of the old Guo family heard this, they shouted happily, turned around and jumped into the pigsty.
The rest of the time was the fat aunt man's, he looked at the pig seedlings one by one, he raised his hand and pointed at it, and the people of the old Guo family picked up the pig seedlings in the pigsty and put them in the prepared wooden box.
In this way, the four pig seedlings were loaded, and they did not use their help, so the people of the old Guo family carried the wooden box to the front yard by themselves.
Even though he was sweating profusely, the smile on his face was also beautiful that he couldn't hide.
