The old man will live, the bacon is cut as thin as paper, and there are a few bacon bones, and they are specially scooped up, ready to be kept for cooking gnocchi soup again in the evening.

In this way, the gnocchi soup will have a meaty flavor and save oil and salt.

In Mrs. Xiao's opinion, her lunch meal is already very good.

Although it is not as good as the Wu family, it is much more abundant than the others.

She also muttered to Xiao Xiao in a low voice: "Our guys are eating well, do you see that those restaurants say that it is sweet potato porridge, less rice and more sweet potatoes, and there are no oil flowers?" ”

If Xiao Xiao was the second child, she wouldn't be so polite.

Whoever let the little granddaughter be reincarnated and put into the belly of the eldest daughter-in-law, she didn't dare to mess with the boss, so she could only take the opportunity to teach the little granddaughter.

She can also understand that the little granddaughter is worthy of being the boss, and she is greedy for appetite.

Blame her for not realizing it before, the three granddaughters of the old family who used to think were all well-behaved, capable and sensible.

Xiao Xiao heard his grandmother's beating, and barely squeezed out a smile: "Grandmother is right, our family's food is more than enough." ”

Xiao Dalang came over with a bowl, and when he heard her words, he was very pleased: "The third sister said well, you can be regarded as applying what you have learned." ”

Everything is inferior, but reading is high.

Old Man Xiao also thought that his two sons would have a good future, but he also took a lot of effort to send them to a private school to study.

Helplessly, the brothers didn't have that talent, and after a few years of studying, the eldest went to the county town to mix, and the younger one inherited the ancestral craft: killing pigs and selling pork.

Later, the second child gave birth to three sons, Da Lang and Erlang did well in school, and they also liked to teach their sisters and sisters to read and write.

Thanks to the blessing of the Taizu who returned from the crane, the woman can also go to a private school to study and read.

However, the little people's families rarely let the girls in the family go to school, and the women always have to get married, and they always feel that they are making wedding dresses for others, which is too much of a loss.

However, Xiao Youfu and Liu's daughters loved each other, and they let them go to a women's private school for a few years.

However, the one who likes to study is Xiao Wei.

Xiao Lian and Xiao Xiao like to play and join in the fun.

Now Xiao Dalang joked to Xiao Xiao: "The two years of restraint have not been lost." ”

Xiao Xiao glanced at him, and reluctantly saved his respect: "I'm an internal show, and I don't like to show off." ”

In fact, she felt that she was now half illiterate, because the original owner really did not like to read, let alone write.

And even if she has read books for more than ten years in her previous life, she has never learned calligraphy.

Even now, I can't get up.

She also wondered why her predecessors had changed a lot, so why didn't she replace the brush words with hard pen words?

But it doesn't matter, she didn't plan to be a talented girl, she just wanted to be a salted fish.

"Haha..."Xiao Dalang was amused by her and laughed, and was beaten twice by her before he whispered: "I heard them from the uncle's side that they were recruited earlier, and the village was already empty, and they also ran to the mountains after getting the news, so they escaped such a catastrophe." ”

After speaking, he winked at her: "Good sister, it's so hot, you and uncle, let's wait for the afternoon to cool down before leaving?" ”

Everyone understands that even if the grandfather and grandmother say that they will take a break in the afternoon and leave.

But if the uncle said that he would leave later, they would not object.

Although Xiao Xiao didn't think the Chinese food was good, he still cherished the food, and after cleaning all the food in the bowl, he lazily asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

"Didn't you say earlier that people in the village who are in a hurry will drop the crops in the field?" Xiao Dalang is the time when they can eat, two big bowls per meal, then they can be full.

Now my grandmother is giving them a bowl for each person, and I really can't fill my stomach.

The taste of hunger was so unpleasant.

However, they are self-aware, and it is impossible to get their grandmother to cook more, so they have to find another way.

When Xiao Xiao heard this, his heart was also moved: "Okay, wait a minute, let's go and pick up the leak together." ”

When Xiao Lian heard this, she scoffed: "It's really nice to say, it's obviously to pick up rags." ”

He persuaded her again: "Don't think it's too beautiful, you can already think of it when you touch others." ”

After speaking, he motioned for them to look at the other side: "Last year's sweet potatoes will definitely not be left for now, so what they eat now must have just been dug up." ”

Xiao Xiao was splashed with her cold water and almost went out.

But the thought of the little tandoor rekindled her fighting spirit: "I'm sure I'll find what I'm looking for." ”

Xiao Lian rolled her eyes at her: "If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you, and when the time comes, you won't cry." ”

She was really afraid that her little sister would be tired, after all, a few days ago, her little sister was too sick, and she was worried that she would hurt her vitality.

It's just that the little sister is not good at raising, and she runs with the mule cart in the morning, and she doesn't take the opportunity to rest, but wants to pick up the leak.

At this time, Xiao Youfu came back and gathered his family to discuss: "They want to spend eighty taels of silver to buy a mule cart for us, do you say you want to sell it?" ”

Mules not only eat grass, but also feed corn, sweet potatoes, soybean cakes, alfalfa, wheat bran, and soybean meal.

Their family has two bags of hemp, and now three mules are mixed to eat, and they can eat it for about ten days at most.

They are also considered to be croppers, and they value domestic animals very much, and they do not want to be wronged by mules unless they have to.

Wu Shi took the lead in agreeing: "Sell it, you can save some feed, and you can get a sum of silver for nothing." ”

looked at Xiao Youfu's face again, and asked cautiously: "But can the price be higher?" ”

Xiao Youfu shook his head: "They said that they are willing to pay eighty taels at most." ”

In fact, the price was not low, and when they bought mules, the price also increased, and it was only sixty taels.

Old Man Xiao pondered for a while and agreed: "Eighty taels is fine, our two mule carts are enough." ”

The two sides discussed, and after paying the silver, the Xiao family began to take off the mule cart.

Wu warmly invited her father-in-law and mother-in-law to their mule cart, not because she was filial, but because the food was guarded by her mother-in-law, and she was afraid that her in-laws and her eldest brother's family would be together, and finally let the eldest brother take advantage of them.

For this reason, he also said that he would let his eldest son help his eldest brother drive the mule cart.

Of course, what she said in her mouth was also very good: this can give the eldest brother a good rest.

The Xiao family has long been separated, and Old Man Xiao lived with his youngest son before.

But now the world is different, and he simply divided the money into three parts, with himself and his wife taking twenty taels, and his brothers thirty taels each.

Xiao Xiao saw that Xiao Youfu handed the silver he had just received to the Liu family to collect it, and then stepped forward: "Dad, mother, we want to go around the small village, I want to pick up a small stove." ”

Liu Shi hesitated a little: "Strange place, will it be unsafe?" ”

Xiao Youfu waved his hand: "Let Da Lang and them accompany you, bring bows and arrows and knives, and run back if the situation is not right." ”

It's not that he has a big heart, but those people have also said that the village is empty and there is no one.

Moreover, when his daughters go out, he can also take the opportunity to talk to his daughter-in-law and take a nap together.

Even if you can't do anything, it's good to be able to talk to her.
