Chapter 34: Blocking

The pigs went into a lot of water, and Gu Qi and Gu Yi washed with hot water for more than two hours, and they were finally busy until nightfall.

Gu Yi wiped his hands and explained: "Fortunately, the hot water boiled by my sister-in-law came one after another, otherwise it wouldn't be so fast." Pour warm water, it will not be greasy, and your hands will not be cold, so it is easy to do the work and much faster! ”

Seeing that there was still some hot water left, the brothers quickly cleaned the backyard, poured hot water to wash off the greasy, and swept it clean before returning to the big kitchen to prepare for dinner.

Chen Xingling has already taken the pig heart, cleaned the pig lungs and cut them into thin slices, after two times of water, stir-fried and stewed for a while with shredded ginger and dark soy sauce, added an extra spoonful of hot sauce, and finally sprinkled with some green onions to serve.

Xiaohuzi's eyes widened in surprise: "Wow~~ What a big plate!" Lots and lots of meat! ”

For the little guy who usually only sees a few pieces of meat, a whole large plate of meat is simply a heavenly level of cheerfulness, sucking his little nose and swallowing saliva.

Gu Yi laughed and said, "Don't worry! Then there will be meat to eat every day! It's so meaty every day! ”

Little Huzi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he jumped up and down with excitement.

Chen Xingling turned around and reminded: "Go and call grandma and aunts to come to dinner, you will be able to eat soon." ”

Little Huzi ran out of the kitchen, shouting as he ran: "It's time to eat!" It's time to eat! ”

After a while, the little one returned.

"Little aunt, they're here. Grandma wasn't in the house. ”

Gu Yi: "Huh? sighed, puzzled: "She was still there earlier!" Did you run out again? I'll take a look! ”

With that, he walked out quickly.

Gu Qi spooned a few bowls of dry rice and served them, and saw that his wife was still boiling soup.

"Xing'er, you still cooked soup?"

Chen Xingling explained with a smile: "Cut a few slices of pork and cook seaweed soup. Ah Yi rarely comes back, and the food in the mountains is definitely not as good as at home. Eat a dry meal tonight and get a small pot of broth to satisfy his cravings. ”

Gu Qi nodded approvingly: "Okay." ”

No wonder her younger brother respects her sister-in-law, and protects her between words, it seems that he treats Gu Yi as his brother.

Chen Xingling saw that the soup was already boiling, so he tore the seaweed little by little and threw it into the pot.

"Archie, get a big pot of water and boil. You've been busy all afternoon, and in the evening you have to change your dirty clothes and take a hot shower so that you don't get greasy. ”

Gu Qi has always loved cleanliness, so he promised and turned around to work.

Soon the people arrived, sat around the old wooden table in all directions, and began to eat in large gulps.

"Mom, where did you go just now?" Gu Yi's mouth was full of oil, and he asked curiously: "It's dark outside, are you still going to the door?" ”

Li Ying grinned, and the fat on her cheeks trembled.

"I'm going to discuss things with your Uncle Qin."

Gu Miao's eyes lit up immediately when she heard this, and she asked in surprise: "Mom, are you really going to the black market to sell pork tomorrow morning?" ”

"yes!" Li Ying replied: "Your Uncle Qin said that every family will have a reunion dinner tomorrow night, and many people can't buy meat." Tomorrow morning's black market is set to be very good! ”

With that, she put down the bowl and stared at her two sons.

"Tomorrow before dawn, you will have to get up. Help me push the two pork and the pig's head to the black market to sell, I recognize the location, just now your Uncle Qin also went around deliberately, saying that tomorrow morning's business will be good. ”

Gu Yi glared in surprise: "Isn't it?" Going to the black market? ”

"Yes!" Li Ying said excitedly: "I heard that the price of meat over there has been higher and higher day by day in the past two days, and even a market for a few hours, and the price of meat has risen gradually." There is only one Spring Festival a year, but any family who can get it can not buy meat! A few days ago, the grocery market and the vegetable market were full, and many people had meat tickets and queued up for a morning and still couldn't buy meat. So today's meat is expensive, and tomorrow morning it will be even higher! ”

"Wow!!" Gu Miao danced with her hands: "Mom! We're sure we'll make a lot of money this time! ”

Li Ying laughed: "Of course! Your Uncle Qin said that the price of meat this afternoon is more than three yuan, and the more it is sold, the more expensive it becomes. Tomorrow, we will definitely make a good profit! ”

Gu Qi frowned slightly, and couldn't help but persuade: "I haven't killed a pig at home for a long time, so let's stay at home to eat." The weather is so cold, even if you can't finish eating it, you can store it as bacon, what do you want to sell? Mom, it's not like the family doesn't run out of money to spend, right? ”

"Silly boy!" Li Ying shook her head: "Who would be afraid of too much money?" If you don't take this opportunity, you can make a good profit! I heard that the meat in the black market during the Spring Festival last year also sold well, and some of them were bold and made hundreds of dollars in a few days! It's hard to kill a pig, and we have to take advantage of it. ”

Gu Yichi asked: "That-Yan no?" What if I get caught? ”

"It's okay, it's okay!" Gu Miao explained excitedly: "It is very loose around the Spring Festival, and there are vendors everywhere who come out to sell gadgets. I saw a couple of candy sellers yesterday! ”

Gu Xuan, who had not spoken, slowly picked off the green onions, and said lightly: "Those are there every year for the New Year, but they are not only available this year." Mom is talking about the black market, buying and selling pork that would have required meat tickets. ”

"yes!" Gu Yi reminded: "There are so many people who sell gadgets, small toys and small sugar during the Spring Festival, and no one will stop them." But the black market is different, and if you are caught, you have to be locked up and fined. ”

"Go, go!" Li Ying scolded with a smile: "Don't talk nonsense!" Phew! ”

Gu Miao rolled her eyes and muttered: "So many people go to sell things, aren't they all good all the time?" The black market is lively during the New Year's holidays, and many people have been there, but no one has necessarily been arrested. ”

"Yes." Li Ying smiled and narrowed her eyes, and advised: "Remember, you have to get up for me at five o'clock tomorrow morning." I'll carry a flashlight, and the two of you will push the unicycle and try to get there at half-past five. ”

Gu Qi saw that they had to go, so he didn't continue to persuade them.

Gu Yi is no stranger to the black market, thinking that it is hard to go home, it is better to take the opportunity to go shopping.

"Okay! Five o'clock, isn't itβ€”"

"Nope." A cold voice sounded slowly.

Everyone was slightly stunned, and instinctively followed the sound.

Chen Xingling calmly helped his son with meat, while reiterating: "I can't go tomorrow, so I don't have to cause trouble." ”

According to the original book, Gu Yi and Gu Miao were arrested in the black market, and Li Ying was so anxious that she fell ill and cried on the bed.

It happened to be the morning of Chinese New Year's Eve, and the reunion dinner was not said that evening, and the whole family braved the cold and ran until late at night.

Later, Gu Qi ran to many places, asked friends to find relationships, and only got them out a few days later, and paid a fine of fifty yuan.

Not to mention the crime, the money was also fined a lot, and Gu Qi was dragged down and owed several favors.

Li Ying's big fat face darkened: "You can do your work at home, let's discuss things, how can you talk here!" ”

"I raised the pig, and I have the right to speak!" Chen Xingling put down his chopsticks and said with a cold face: "I have to chop pig vegetables and boil rice water every day, and pick pig manure once every two days!" I'm going to bathe it once every three days. How many times have you fed the pigs? How many times have you picked up manure? When have you rinsed it? ”

Li Ying's face turned red and black for a while, and she found that she couldn't answer.

The atmosphere at the table changed suddenly, and it instantly became stiff and awkward.
