Zhang Xiaohua sat on the ox cart and watched everyone whispering about raising pigs, turned her head to Tu Su next to her and said:

"Go home. ”

Tu Su nodded and drove away in the ox cart, and everyone didn't dare to chase them, so they could only watch them go away.

All of a sudden, the craze for raising pigs became popular in the village, and many people were either borrowing money to raise pigs or were already on their way to raising pigs.

Raising pigs only needs to be fed with pigweed everywhere to raise pigs to be fat, which is undoubtedly to make more money at the least cost.

After returning home, Zhang Xiaohua found Aunt Zhou hesitating and hesitating by the side of her yard.

"Aunt Zhou, what's wrong?" Zhang Xiaohua stood in the courtyard and beckoned to her.

Aunt Zhou hesitated for a moment and walked over with a smile on her face.

"I have something to tell you. "Aunt Zhou was very cramped at this time.

Zhang Xiaohua took out two stools from the house and placed them in the yard, and went to get a basket of beans, "Let's sit down and talk about something." ”

"Oh, good. Aunt Zhou hurriedly sat down.

Zhang Xiaohua peeled the beans in her hand and waited for the other party to speak.

After Aunt Zhou peeled a few beans, she looked up at the person sitting across from her, "Nier, you are so fat, do you really only eat pigweed?"

Just by relying on the weeds all over the ground to feed the pigs so fat, Aunt Zhou still has some doubts in her heart.

Zhang Xiaohua didn't answer her, and asked rhetorically, "Aunt Zhou, you also want to raise pigs, right?"

"Yes......" Aunt Zhou nodded.

"My family and my man are planting crops, not only to subsidize my mother's family, but also my mother-in-law's family, and to save next year's food, the two of us are really hard. ”

This is not only the case for Aunt Zhou's family, but also for all households in the countryside.

"Aunt Zhou, don't worry about raising pigs, wait for the next batch of pig seedlings in my family to raise well, I will send you a few and then tell you how to raise them, but don't learn from the people in the village to buy pigs." ”

Zhang Xiaohua knew that Aunt Zhou was the only one in the neighborhood who was willing to help her, and she could also feel the difficulties of the other party in her heart, after all, these farmers could only use coolies, and they were facing the loess with their backs to the sky all year round.

"Thank you, Nier!" Aunt Zhou's excited hands trembled for a while, and she held Zhang Xiaohua's hand and thanked her vigorously.

Zhang Xiaohua felt the other party's excitement and smiled, "However, don't say anything about this except your man, otherwise don't blame me for not helping you." ”

"Good. Aunt Zhou nodded immediately, and she was still in a happy mood and finished peeling the beans in the frame.

Zhang Xiaohua watched Aunt Zhou leave happily, got up and shook the crumbs on her body, picked up a basket of beans and walked into the kitchen.

Tu Su stood in the room and looked at her, with a bit of scrutiny, and found that she was very generous to those who wanted to help, and refused to give extra faces to those who didn't want to help.

This is somewhat similar to him.

Since most of the people in Xinghua Village decided to raise pigs, many people in the village have smiles on their faces.

Everyone waited for a few months to see that their pigs would grow fat and sell for a good price.

The village chief, who was originally the most enthusiastic about this kind of thing, did not move for a long time.

Everyone was a little surprised, why the village chief's family did not raise pigs.

Aunt Li had already inquired about why the village chief had not started raising pigs, and it turned out that he had hired workers to build a large pigsty in the empty forest in his backyard.

These rumors reached Zhang Xiaohua's ears, and she just smiled and shook her head.

Every day, Tu Su took his son to send Zhang Xiaohua to the town to teach, and the life of a family of three was very nourishing, and any turmoil in the village was deaf.

Because there are more people raising pigs in the village, the demand for pigweed suddenly increases, Zhang Xiaohua is worried on the edge of the pigsty, the potatoes and sweet potatoes he wants have not yet arrived, so how to spend this time.

Tu Su carried two sacks of things and piled them up in the corner of the pigsty, "The things sent by Zhongmeng have arrived." ”

"It's so timely!" Zhang Xiaohua walked over in surprise and opened the sack to take a look.

Potatoes and sweet potatoes are smaller, but as long as they can be fed, everything is not a problem.

"Tu Su took the hoe, and the two of us went to the backyard to turn over the acre of land. Zhang Xiaohua is excited now, and she can't wait to see the sprouts of potatoes and sweet potatoes immediately.

Tu Su nodded and went to the backyard with a hoe and sweet potatoes.

The young couple worked all afternoon in the acre of vegetable fields in their backyard, and finally planted all the sweet potatoes in those sacks.

"These two things are the best to raise, they just need to be watered to survive. ”

Zhang Xiaohua stood on the edge of the ground, wiped the sweat on her forehead with her sleeve, and looked at what she had just planted with satisfaction.

"I'll carry the water, and you go into the house and rest. Tu Su put down this sentence, turned his head and took the flat pole and the bucket to fetch water.

Zhang Xiaohua was stunned, looked at the man's back walking away, and smacked her lips, "Why do you feel a little machismo?"

There was still a small number of potatoes and sweet potatoes left in the sack, and Zhang Xiaohua took them back to the kitchen to prepare something new for Xiao Tuling to taste.

Tu Su, who carried the water, poured the water directly after two trips, and when he returned to the kitchen, he saw Zhang Xiaohua busy alone, and he didn't bother, but just habitually sat on the edge of the stove to help light the fire.

Zhang Xiaohua used potatoes to make fried potato lattices and french fries, and sweet potatoes were used to make meatballs, this little snack made Tu Ling very happy, he had never eaten such a delicious thing.

The harmonious appearance of the family made Song Lian'er, who was standing outside peeking, jealous, and gritted her teeth as if she wanted to eat people.

In the past few days, observing the vigorous growth of potatoes and sweet potatoes, and even the sweet potatoes have been pulled by vines, Zhang Xiaohua is also very happy.

The teaching of Yunchuan Restaurant is basically over, and Zhang Xiaohua also collected a lot of tuition, and on this day, Mr. Liu took someone to drive the pigs to the town, and by the way, he paid off the money for buying pigs.

The huge formation of one or two hundred people brought by Mr. Liu attracted the entire Xinghua Village to come and watch the excitement.

Zhang Xiaohua looked at Mr. Liu and asked with a smile, "Are these pigs driven away today?"

"Yes, it's troublesome for you to help raise it for so many more days. Mr. Liu saw with his own eyes that the pigs in the pigsty had grown white and fat, and his heart was much more relieved.

"That's out of the way. Zhang Xiaohua didn't think there was anything, after all, Mr. Liu had also paid for the feed for the past few days.

The guys who came directly tied the pigs' necks with hemp ropes, and several pigs tied them to a rope and rushed to the town.

Seeing that his pigs were sold for a good price, Zhang Xiaohua was still a little relieved.

You don't have to think about it to know that these pigs are sent to the slaughterhouse to end their lives and then sent to the table.

Seeing the lively villagers watching these fat pigs all bought, many people were a little red-eyed, but thinking that their own pigs would be sold at a good price in a few months, their hearts were a lot more balanced.
