Chapter 153: Qiu Niang is pregnant
It's a little year now, when I lived with my grandmother in the next life in Xia July, Xiao Nian'er would eat pig's head meat on this day, and I don't know if it was a custom or grandma specially improved her food, but she liked to eat it very much.
The smell of the pig's head meat is fat but not greasy, so she got up early in the morning and went out to buy the pig's head meat after selling the sugar.
Because the Chinese New Year is approaching, the butcher shop is also very popular, Xia Qiyue queued up for a long time to get to the front, and when she saw that there were two pig's heads on the stall, she bought them all with a wave of her hand.
For more than a month, after her candy business stabilized, her income was more than 300 yuan in two days, so after the lottery went bankrupt, she saved as much as 4,000 taels, although there were still 400 taels of deposits before, but she became a rich woman again, and she spent more money.
Not to mention the silver, the space production has also been slowly accumulated, accumulated to a certain extent, due to the growth of the land, her rice has been stored as much as 400,000 catties of grain, hoarded in the warehouse, it is simply a grain mountain, but Xia Qiqi has no intention of selling, now is not the time, even if it is sold, it can't be sold in Jiuli Town, she is afraid of being eye-catching.
And then there are eggs, before the eggs were sold to the grocery store, after a few times the supply was stopped, now the space warehouse shelves on the shelves of a basket of eggs are simply going around the warehouse, It is estimated that there are as many as 10,000, Xia and July are all packed in the basket and saved, it has cost a lot of money to buy baskets, the uncle who sells baskets in the market knows her, and when he sees her shopping in the market, he beckons her to ask if she wants a basket.
Another is the boss who sells maltose, who has a strong imagination and explosiveness, and later found Xia Qiyue and said that he would supply her with maltose at a lower price and deliver it to her door every day, Xia Qiyue of course accepted it gladly, told him the address, and asked him to deliver the goods every other day.
As for the maltose boss opposite him, who wondered why Xia Qiyue didn't buy maltose anymore, no one could give an answer.
As for the gold coins, it is only a state of decreasing but not increasing, because the grain has been hoarded and not sold, and the eggs are reluctant to sell, anyway, there is a place in the warehouse, so it has been hoarded, so the source of gold coins is gone, plus the sugar paper has to be bought every day, although it is cheap, it can be a lot, and it takes 5,000 pieces each time, which is 500 gold coins, and to make nougat, you have to buy milk powder, milk powder is not cheap, a can costs 200 gold coins, so that there are only 200,000 gold coins left.
Happily, the cows in the space have calves, and now there are five, two males and three cows.
The cow that had been left in the space before gave birth to a calf, female.
Later, two cows gave birth to one cow, one male and one female, and it became five, but the cowshed was full, but a cow could grow at an astonishing rate in six days in the space.
There was also a surprise, that is, the three cows raised in the backyard, both of which were preserved, should be able to lay calves in the summer.
Although the outside will grow normally and have normal calves, by the summer they will have five cows, so they can not be afraid of it, and they can start milking cows.
Speaking of milking cows, Xia Qiyue has hoarded more than 1,000 catties of milk in the space warehouse, although this amount is really not large, but Xia Qiyue feels that it is super difficult, milking cows is not an easy job, she thinks that milking milk once can make her hands sore.
The daily sign-in lottery is a little weak, signed in for more than 30 days and nearly 40 days, there are only four points of land, and there are now twelve acres of land in the space.
Xia Qiyue didn't buy much at all from the last trip to the market, and the two pigs' heads had already exhausted her to vomit blood.
It's almost the New Year, there are many people who buy things, and people in the countryside have also gone to the city to do New Year's goods, so the owner of the pork jerky didn't have time to help deliver the goods, so he had to bring it back by himself.
But I happened to see the rich businessman Qiu Niang next door coming to see her.
Xia Qiyue didn't look down on her when Qiu Niang bought candy that time, so she bought it every few days, and the two gradually became familiar with each other, occasionally saying a few words, from this chat, Xia Qiyue learned that the old man Qiu Niang married was a wealthy businessman.
However, Qiu Niang didn't say what to do, only said that she was very rich, and ransomed her from the Qinglou, so she was raised here as his outer room.
Xia Qiyue watched the man who was like Qiu Niang's father being warmly held by Qiu Niang's arm and entered the yard, and couldn't help but want to step forward and listen to what the two of them had to say.
As a person in later generations, her curiosity is too heavy, so she wants to see how this old husband and young wife get along, and how she serves the master as a concubine.
Even the original natives may be curious about this.
She said to do it, took a deep breath, and lifted the two pig's heads to walk towards the alley at once, and when she passed the gate of Qiu Niang's courtyard, she deliberately slowed down her pace, but she didn't hear what she was saying clearly, only heard Qiu Niang's delicate and weak coquettishness.
Xia Qiyue shook his body, hurried back to a yard, and took advantage of the time when others were peeling peanuts and An Youde and An Chengzi were making halva to deal with the pig's head stew.
Wait until the two of you have finished making the halva before you can start making nougat.
Next door, Qiu Niang's yard.
Qiu Niang sat in Boss Su's arms, took his hand and let him touch his belly, and spoke in a soft voice.
"Master, do you think the concubine's belly will be a son? If it were a son, it would be satisfying to be as handsome and talented as the master! ”
Boss Su was dizzy, and his hands were unconsciously taken by Qiu Niang to touch her stomach, and there were not too many surprises on his face, but he was a little scared.
Although he originally wanted Qiu Niang to give him a few sons, he was a wealthy businessman with three generations of single inheritance, and he didn't even have a son-in-law in his generation, so it would be good to have a few more concubines to inherit his family business.
But the eldest lady in the house is very powerful, although she failed to give him a son, but she didn't let his concubines have a good time, and always wanted to kill them, so many years, there were not five but three concubines who died in the hands of the eldest lady.
Aunt Fuzhong now has only two sons and is still alive, he usually doesn't dare to get too close, otherwise he is afraid that the eldest lady will be killed again.
"Master, you say, will the eldest lady let the concubine enter the mansion for the sake of the child's face?" Qiu Niang saw that Boss Su didn't have a cold face, and she was happy that he liked to give birth to a son for him, and the requirements were also high.
She doesn't want to be an outer room anymore, she wants to enter the mansion, even though she is just a concubine, she also wants to enter the mansion.
Boss Su frowned, but now that Qiu Niang is pregnant, he can't be too harsh, so he has to coax softly, "How comfortable you are here, if you enter the house, you have to salute the tigress every day, sir, I don't worry about putting your delicate and weak beauty in front of the tigress!" ”
Qiu Niang heard that the master was unhappy, so she quickly pouted and pretended to be angry, "Master, Qiu Niang wants to accompany the master every day!" ”
