Chapter 237: Gift Package
Zhang Sijiu slept groggily for a day, drank water and took medicine to go to the toilet when he woke up, and then slept after finishing his work, and when he woke up at night, he was sticky and greasy and sweaty, boiled a hot water and took a bath, and then sat on the kang, she felt that she was alive again.
Although the symptoms of the cold are still there, the vest no longer hurts, and the temperature is basically normal. As long as it doesn't burn again at night, it's better.
On the head of the kang is a basket of fresh fruits, including red persimmons, oranges, a few small apples and pears.
The persimmon is not yet on the ordinary persimmon tree, but an authentic mill persimmon, which is not available here at all.
Zhang Sijiu knew at a glance that this was something that he would never buy. After all, it's so expensive, and you can't eat enough! With that money, Xu would definitely rather buy some snacks and candy to coax the child.
"Where did this come from?" Seeing Zhaoyin coming in, Zhang Sijiu asked her.
"Yang Sanlang asked him to send it from his little servant Chen Dou." Zhaoyin handed the sugarcane water in his hand to Zhang Sijiu, and touched Zhang Sijiu's forehead, feeling that it was indeed not burning, so he spoke with peace of mind: "He heard that Dr. Cheng said that you were sick, so he asked Chen Dou to send something over. In addition to this, there is also a packet of sugar, but this fruit is specially given to you. There is also dried fruit preserves, a small box of snacks. I'll show you. Aunt Xu didn't let anyone else see it."
CMB pulled out two small wooden boxes from the cabinet. At first glance, that thing is not a delicate thing that the Xu family can afford.
When the lid of the wooden box is opened, there are small compartments inside, and four small compartments can be used to hold things.
One box is dried fruits: candied bayberry, snowflake apricot flesh, Yanjin peach meat strips, and one golden silk date.
In the dim sum box, there are only four pieces of snow-white, hair-like dim sum dragon whisker cake.
The dragon whisker cake is not a big piece, and it can be eaten in one bite.
Zhang Sijiu looked at it and thought of a solemn question: uneven distribution-
Zhaoyin saw through Zhang Sijiu's thoughts: "Second Aunt Xu said, since it was given to you alone, don't take it out and divide it. When you are sick, keep it for yourself."
Zhang Sijiu couldn't cry or laugh. Then he and Zhaoyin shared a bayberry in their mouths, and put the rest away: when you are sick, you should actually eat less sweet. Especially this sugar product.
It was the first time for CMB to eat bayberry, and the whole person was amazed: "What is this? It's delicious!"
Zhang Sijiu hasn't eaten this kind of small snack for a long time. In the past, I didn't crave these things, and I thought I could buy them everywhere, so I didn't cherish them. When you get here, you can't buy it even if you have money - in the dim sum dry goods shops in the county, there may not be these delicate, long-distance, and expensive preserves.
If you really want to buy it, you may have to go to Fucheng.
"He didn't bring me a word?" Zhang Sijiu raised his eyebrows and asked Zhaoyin.
Zhaoyin shook his head: "I didn't say anything, just said that I would let you wait for him to deliver the soap." Tell him what you want to eat, and tell him."
Zhang Sijiu nodded and didn't ask any more. It is estimated that if it weren't for Zhou Niangzi to stop him, Yang Yuanding would have to come and take a look by himself - fortunately, Zhou Niangzi stopped him, otherwise he would have waited to take medicine together!
"How about you go kill the pig today? Is it going well?" Zhang Sijiu remembered that Zhaoyin took over the job of killing pigs today, so he asked again.
CMB was excited when he said this, "Smooth! How it didn't go well! I also picked up three more! Killing pigs is really money, Jiu Niang, do you think I'll be a professional pig killer in the future?"
Her eyes were already shining with excitement: "I can usually go and sell pork!"
Zhang Sijiu coughed - choked on his own saliva.
She looked at CMB and didn't know for a moment whether she should be glad that CMB had learned to think, or should she be shocked by CMB's informality - a good guy really doesn't have the burden of a girl's image at all!
After Zhang Sijiu eased up, he nodded: "Then if you want to, you can try it." First of all, you have to understand the market, and you have to understand all aspects."
CMB nodded, "I'll go back and inquire more."
Looks like she really wants to do it.
Zhang Sijiu didn't plan to interfere: CMB is no longer a child, although he is not an adult, but he is also a young man, and his mind has begun to mature in all aspects, and he should go to society to hone more. I can't care about her for the rest of my life.
The vinegar noodle soup that Zhang Sijiu also eats in the evening.
However, it was eaten with Xiao Song, and Xiao Bai was not passed on, so Xu asked him not to follow Yang.
Komatsu was still a little feverish, but he was obviously much better, at least he was in good spirits, and he yelled for Xu to add an extra egg.
Xu Shi smiled and agreed, adding two boiled poached eggs to him and Zhang Sijiu. Then sit next to the soles and watch the two of them eat.
Zhang Sijiu asked about the situation of the children in the village, and Xu sighed: "Some people listened to us and took Dr. Cheng's medicine, and some people thought that it was normal for children to be sick and that it was no big deal. I don't want to spend that money."
Cheng Wanli's prescription of medicine is really inexpensive, and this batch of children who are sick on a large scale do not need to be separately treated.
But I didn't expect it to be so cheap, and some people are still reluctant.
Zhang Sijiu picked a pea tip and ate it: "Every family's situation is different, we did what we had to do, and we were worthy of our conscience."
After speaking, she praised: "Second aunt, this pea tip ***."
"I pinched the top and the most tender, why isn't it tender?" Xu laughed, "Eat more, I've drunk all the noodle soup." It's getting better fast."
"Tomorrow I'll be fine, and I'll go to my grandfather's place to get a gelding." Zhang Sijiu hasn't forgotten this.
Xu immediately refused: "You don't need to go, I'll let them send it over by themselves in two days." You raise it for two more days."
After a pause, she talked about the gelding again: "But during the day, other people really came to ask about the gelding, and I said that you are sick, and you can get it in two days, and I told them to send it over in three days."
She didn't know if this was right, but thinking about what Zhang Sijiu said, she was a little relieved: "It is estimated that there are more people who come to the door after the New Year, and many pigs are born at that time."
After a pause, Xu discussed with Zhang Sijiu again: "Jiu Niang, do you want to raise a sow? I wondered, what will I do in the future to make money selling piglets?"
Zhang Sijiu hadn't thought about this yet, he lowered his head and pondered for a while, and he figured out why Xu thought like this: "The second aunt thinks that there will be geldings and fewer sows when the time comes? So piglets are expensive?"
Xu nodded: "I don't know if I'm right."
"That's right." Zhang Sijiu nodded, but shook his head again: "But this money is not easy to earn. The sow is bothered to raise, the second aunt wants to sell lo-mei, there is no need to earn this money, our family is too little. And if you raise sows, you can't make much money with one or two sows, unless you raise seven or eight sows at a time."
That is, small-scale farms.
When I was a child, I thought that the dragon beard was really high-tech, so thin whiskers, thinner than hair, and then white, fluffy and sweet, so amazing, I didn't know how to do it. It wasn't until I grew up that I saw the ...... of making dragon whisker cakes on the street I realized that it was originally a piece of sugar, which was pulled into a filament and filled...... Then I had an epiphany: isn't that the same principle as ramen!
But it's still delicious. The saliva is dripping, everyone will see you tomorrow~
