Chapter XXXV. Surrender of income
After coming back, Zhang Qinfen was busy here.
Pigs in the water are already difficult to deal with, and Zhang Qinfen is still a little busy at this time.
Su Xiao'e looked at the busy Zhang Qinfen and said to Xu Xiaowan:
"Why don't you tell your mother, go back to the house and find someone to help deal with these things together, otherwise I'm afraid my mother won't be able to bear it."
It's not the farming season, and it's not hard to find someone to help.
In particular, rural women have little income at home, so if they can help to do something, they can also buy some oil and salt to supplement their families.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll help Mom, it's a difficult time at home now, don't waste this money."
In the past few days, Su Xiao'e has been able to try to sit up a little.
Seeing that the family was so busy, Su Xiao'e couldn't help much, and she was still a little anxious.
Xu Xiaowan helped Su Xiao'e wipe her body, and then went out with a basin.
"Sister-in-law, you read the book first, I'll help my mother, you can call me if you have anything to do."
Su Xiao'e nodded, wanting to help but couldn't do anything.
In the afternoon, Xu Jianshe returned.
Today, he took the rabbits and pheasants he had beaten in the past few days to a hotel in the county seat.
Because all he brings is game, it is still very popular in the state-owned restaurants in the county, and he can basically accept it all every time he brings it.
It's just that this time when he came back, he was carrying a few books in his hand, and when Xu Xiaowan was washing the pig's intestine outside, he saw the book in his hand at a glance.
"Brother, did you buy books for your sister-in-law again?"
"Nope."
After Xu Jianshe replied briefly, he went back to the room.
Seeing Xu Jianshe coming back, Su Xiao'e greeted him.
"Coming back? You brought a lot of rabbits and pheasants with you today, and they should be able to sell for a lot of money. ”
Xu Jianjian's undressing hand paused, and then took the money out of his clothes pocket.
"Well, you count."
Su Xiao'e was stunned for a moment by his actions.
Xu Jianshe didn't give her the money when he went to sell game before, why did he give it like this today?
Could it be that he said something that made him mistakenly think that he was looking for him to hand over money?
Su Xiao'e thought so, and her face suddenly turned red.
"I didn't mean that, I just asked casually."
"It's okay, I don't usually need any money, just keep it with you."
Xu Jianshe said, then continued to take off his clothes and put them down, and then studied the book he got back seriously.
Su Xiao'e was very close to Xu Jianshe at this time, and she could see at a glance what the book in his hand was.
It turned out to be a book on how to grow mushrooms.
"You bought a cultivated mushroom?"
"Well, I'll see if I can save it."
After Xu Jianshe replied, his whole mind was in the book.
Su Xiao'e also took a copy from the side and read it.
It's just that this knowledge looks obscure and difficult to understand, and it tastes like it, and Su Xiao'e fell asleep after watching it for a while.
By the time I woke up again, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon.
"Awake?"
Hearing the voice in her ears, Su Xiao'e turned her head and saw Xu Jianshe sitting on the edge of the bed with a book in her hand.
At this time, he was putting down the book in his hand, turning around and walking outside.
Su Xiao'e didn't say anything, just struggled to sit up, and then saw Xu Jianshe holding a tray in his hand, in which were some sliced lo-mei, and next to it was a bowl of boiled green cabbage.
"Let's eat first."
"Have you eaten it?"
"Hmm."
After Xu Jianshe replied, he continued to read the book.
Su Xiao'e ate those lo-mei, but felt that the taste was okay, when she made it herself, she would leave the pig's head pig in the water when she killed the New Year's pig at home, and the rest of the pork was sold or given to relatives.
And a small part of his own house is left to make bacon, and only when the guests arrive will there be dishes as entertainment.
"The lo-mei you made this way tastes good."
Xu Jianshe watched Su Xiao'e eat heavily, and finally couldn't help but praise it.
It's just that this praise sounded in Su Xiao'e's ears, but it was a little awkward.
What is good, delicious is said to be delicious, and it has to be hidden.
However, Su Xiao'e didn't say what was in her heart, she just asked him:
"Are those mushrooms still saved?"
Xu Jianshe was silent for a while, and didn't say whether he could remedy it, but just said to Su Xiao'e:
"I'll try."
This afternoon, he read three books on mushroom cultivation, which more or less talked about the cultivation methods and how to deal with various situations in mushrooms.
It's just that I didn't talk about how to save it if I sprayed too many pesticides.
But those mushrooms, he went to see them today, and although most of them were dead, there were still a few of them that were still holding on tenaciously while looking dying.
If those can't be saved, the remaining ones can be cultivated.
Su Xiao'e doesn't know much about the method of cultivating mushrooms.
The knowledge he knew was only what Su Dayong had explained that day.
So at this time, she didn't interfere too much with Xu Jianjian's practice.
Early the next morning, the courtyard of the Xu family began to be lively.
Because she was selling cooked food, Zhang Qinfen also deliberately moved the honeycomb stove at home to the cart.
"Mom, I'll go with you later."
"You better stay at home and take care of your sister-in-law, I'll just go by myself."
Xu Xiaowan was on the side to help clean up, and Xu Jianshe helped move a large pot of braised pork to the cart with the soup.
Seeing Zhang Qinfen's refusal, his brows furrowed tightly.
"I'll take care of Xiao'e here, and Xiaowan will follow you."
Last time, Su Xiao'e and Xiaowan sold zongzi and had such a big incident, and Xu Jianshe was still a little uneasy.
Zhang Qinfen looked at her son and looked at Xu Jianshe with a puzzled expression.
"You're not going to the mountains."
"Hmm."
Xu Jianshe said, and after moving the rest of the things to the cart, he limped to the front and pulled the cart and walked outside the courtyard gate.
Zhang Qinfen hurriedly came to the front and stopped him.
"I'll come, you take care of Xiao'e at home."
In the past few days, someone has built a house and called Xu Shaohua to help, so he hasn't stayed at home much in the past few days.
How could Xu Jianshe let his mother pull such a heavy thing.
He patted the cart on the empty spot.
"You and Xiaowan sit up, I'll pull you over."
Zhang Qinfen still felt sorry for her son in the end, and no matter what Xu Jianshe said, she didn't sit on it.
"You better stay at home, in case something happens to Xiao'e, and there is no one around."
"I'll send you over and I'll be back."
