Chapter 20 The hen will milk back

Tang Su led Tang Lan, Zhang San and Li Si to pay back the thirty-three taels of silver owed to Huang Tianba first.

After returning the silver, Tang Su suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Although there is still a lot of money to be repaid, there is still a full month before the next payment, and no matter what, she can find a way to earn this money.

In addition, the most important thing is the food ration problem of the family.

After selling the bed and coffin, Tang Su got a total of fifty-five taels of silver, plus one tael left over as a hairpin, and returned thirty-three taels to Huang Tianba, and now he has a total of twenty-three taels of silver left.

She carefully packed the small money bag specially made for her by Shi's mother and went directly to the live poultry market.

The four of them circled half the street seven or eight times back and forth, until Tang Lan was tired and panting and couldn't walk, Tang Su cautiously squatted in front of an old lady who sold chicks.

The old lady used a dustpan to hold a group of young yellow chicks, with their pointed beaks on their backs, and chirping wildly.

The four of them squatted on the ground, around the dustpan, staring at the chicks with a deep face.

The old lady looked at them, one was a beautiful girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, a young fierce little girl, and two big men.

The beautiful little girl among them looks white and clean, and the wearer is not dressed like a child from a poor family, what is she doing around the little chicks?

The old lady silently pulled the dustpan back.

Tang Su and the others stepped forward in unison, still staring at the little chicks.

Old Lady: "......"

I'm afraid it's not going to be robbed, right?

She was a little scared, pondered for a long time, and said weakly: "Do you want to buy it?" If you don't buy it, don't get in the way of my business! ”

Tang Su rubbed his chin and asked, "Auntie, you little chicken...... Can you eat it for two months? ”

When the old lady heard this, she raised her eyelids, looked at her seriously for a while, shook her head, and thought to herself that this girl looked very handsome, but unfortunately she was a fool.

It seems that the rest of the people are all accompanying this silly girl to join in the fun.

So she ignored Tang Su.

Tang Lan was the most protective of her sister, and she was not happy when she heard this: "Auntie, why don't you answer my sister?" Do you still want to start a business? ”

The old lady looked at Tang Lan and felt that she was quite normal, so she said: "My little chicks are all alive, don't say that you raise them for two months, even if you buy them now, you can eat them back!" ”

Tang Su raised his eyebrows: "This ...... I'm afraid it's too small, right? ”

She turned her head and asked Tang Lan, "Does Aunt Cuihua have a big appetite?" ”

Tang Lan hehe: "I'll just say so, since Aunt Cuihua is pregnant, she has enough food for us to eat for three days!" The bigger her belly, the more she can eat, and she is afraid of eating her father, otherwise how can she go back to her parents' house for a few days......"

Tang Su: "......"

It seems that the original owner's father is really good at picking the door. His concubine was pregnant and ate more, and he was also distressed.

But the old lady heard it, and with a kind smile on her face: "Yo, I bought it for people with bodies?" ”

Tang Su nodded: "Eat in confinement." ”

"Then you go buy the old hen, buy it over there." The old lady enthusiastically showed her the way.

Tang Su was a little embarrassed: "I don't have that much money......

The old lady understood: "Want to raise it yourself? I also have a heart, although I can't grow into an old hen in two months, it's not that I can't eat it. Wait, I'll catch thirty females for you! ”

"No, no," Tang Su said busily, "Auntie, you give me ten males and twenty females." ”

The old lady was stunned: "Huh? Why? Do you still want to give hatching chicks? That doesn't need so many cocks. Two are enough. ”

Tang Su smiled: "It's better to eat roosters in the first few days after giving birth." ”

"Why?" The old lady had heard this for the first time.

Tang Su smiled: "Because the hen will return milk after giving birth!" ”
