Wang Family’s Peasant Woman: Raising kids and Making wealth

Chapter 67: The Quail Egg of a Little Bird

“Chef Zhang, how do you write this word?” Gu Chunzhu has no words in his heart. This half of the illiterate feels really bad.

“Gu is a little difficult, I'll teach you!” Chef Zhang picked up a branch and wrote it on the mud. Gu Chunzhu took a look and found out. The sample was written in the book.

After blowing away the signature ink, Gu Chunzhu handed over the document.

Chef Zhang took the paperwork satisfactorily and went to find the master cabinet. Shortly after, he came with the little fellow. The little fellow also had to dial two dials. “The squares of the pickle gang are three taels of silver, and the three barrels of river shrimp are three taels of silver and 80 yuan and 80 yuan. ”

“Okay.” Gu Chunzhu took the money and put it in his arms carefully.

The mind is swiftly turning, so that, together with more than two taels of silver in the family, there are about five taels and two cents.

Buying a home in town isn't without expectations!

“Chunzhu, you have the money, and I want to say something to you.” Chef Zhang watched the little fellow go, knocking Gu Chunzhu, "you sold this formula to us and can no longer sell it, otherwise there will be prison disaster. ”

“Chef Zhang, I know, how can I sell this shrimp and wild food to anyone else?” Gu Chunzhu said sweetly, Chef Zhang went to work satisfactorily.

As before, Gu Chunzhu helped Sister Gui to work.

Gui Sister-in-law was embarrassed to get 20 yuan and ask her to help. Gu Chunzhu explained that the cow truck was still not leaving. She was also idle, so she helped her work.

At lunch, Gui sister-in-law gave Gu Chunzhu a bowl of white rice and said that it was one of the children in front of him who ate the leftovers. The children were clean and there must be nothing wrong with them.

Gu Chunzhu was not so polite. He divided it to his sister-in-law, and the two of them ate a full meal with white rice and rotten milk.

When she was about to leave, Chef Zhang rushed out of the stove room and said to her, "Chun Bamboo, the last time a customer of the pickled pickled pickles gang came, you had to order that dish, the master cabinet promised to do it in three days. Bring your pickled pickled pickles gang in three days, it's also expensive. ”

“Okay.” Gu Chunzhu nodded, and she'd be happy to make some more money.

She walked out a hundred meters or so away with a flat load. Sister-in-law Gui chased her up and gasped. She pulled another bag of oil out of her arms. "I just sent the dishes and you left when I got back. I haven't had time for this. ”

“Don't bother, sister-in-law, take it back to the house and add food.” Gu Chunzhu shook her hand and didn't take it. Sister-in-law Gui caught all the good meat, but she was embarrassed to take it.

“You said that my twenty bucks were unstable.” Sister Gui put on a face and deliberately pretended to be angry.

Gu Chunzhu picked it up and Auntie Gui left.

She went to town to tear cloth to buy cotton, and this time she spent less than a dollar on silver, ready to make three more warm napkins for Rosneland.

When she returned to the village, it was completely dark, and far away she saw Ann sitting on the pier waiting.

“Mother-” the little voice ripped open and shouted.

Gu Chunzhu dragged his tired body. Hearing the child scream also accelerated his steps. He put down his back basket and flat shoulder and held Ann in his arms. "What did you have for lunch? ”

“Dazhuang cooked potatoes, beat egg sauce, and smelled like egg sauce.” Ann, keep your mouth shut.

There are no eggs in the house. Did Fu sister-in-law take them from the house? Gu Chunzhu took care of herself. She seems to have grown a little meat. She really needs to buy some eggs for the children to eat.

“Mother, do we eat pickles today?” Ann asked pointing to Xiaozheng coming out of the stove: “My brother is ready to wash the rice. ”

Mentioning the pickle gang Gu Chunzhu rubbed Ann's little face, he snapped Cheng's little head and walked to the stove room. “If you don't eat the pickle gang, you can sell the money. Mother went to send River Shrimp to the kind old lady to give her meat again. ”

Gu Chunzhu took out the oil bag, which was filled with a few pieces of meat and shoots, one or two pills like fish balls, and two quail eggs.

Ann pointed at the quail egg and said, "Mother, is this a little egg? ”

“No, quails, like pigeon eggs, hatch up to become birds.” Gu Chunzhu explained.

Ann's mouth slammed. I heard it was going to turn into a bird, but it hurts when I eat it.

The tears were about to fall, Xiaocheng pulled Ra 'an's clothes corner: “It hasn't turned into a bird yet, like an egg, it hasn't turned into a chicken yet. Besides, the bird will eat the grain secretly, it's bad. ”

An An's tears came down, and when he heard Cheng, he stopped crying.

“Okay, no crying, quail eggs taste great.” It's really cute. No, Gu Chunzhu kissed her in the face and went to cook the rice while steaming the oil bag.

Light a good fire in the stove and leave two pieces of wood for a crack before the fire burns.

Gu Chunzhu sat in front of the stove and waved to Xiaocheng. “Did you accidentally get a wound today? ”

“No.” Xiaocheng shook his head. Knowing that Gu Chunzhu still had to see for himself, he walked away and rolled up his trousers to show her. The wound had already been scabbed without bleeding.

“All right, watch your step.” Gu Chunzhu put Xiaocheng's trousers down.

“Spring bamboo!” Sister Fu's voice rang outside the courtyard door.

“Here!” Gu Chunzhu answered loudly.

Sister-in-law Fu came in and saw the three mothers and sons in front of the stove. “Haven't you eaten yet? I'm here to tell you the good news. Tory's looking at the house in New Orleans. She sold three taels of silver. She rented the house in town. ”

“That's great, so you don't have to worry about the kids being sold.” Gu Chunzhu's willow eyebrows unfolded with joy.

“Really? In the future, we won't have to sneak around looking for New Orleans to make clothes. She was afraid that her mother would find out before she dared to live.” Sister-in-law Fu is happy for her too.

“Just in time, I bought some cloth to make her a warm tummy towel, and I'll have to ask my sister-in-law to lead the way. ”

“Of course, her mother-in-law knew that her mother and daughter had sold the house and had to make a scene. Fortunately, you came to me the other day and I cursed her soberly. ”

Gu Chunzhu remembered Mrs. Wei's strange appearance, which was even scarier than Old Su and the Hao Clan.

She took out the cloth she bought in town and showed it to Sister Fu. The two chatted until the rice in the stove smelled fragrant and Sister Fu left.

“Sister-in-law's here. I'll give you last night's money first.” Gu Chunzhu felt the copper plate and thought about adding the money for the egg that Fu sister-in-law wanted to eat for the children. "Sister-in-law's egg for the children counts as two pennies. ”

“I can't afford a penny more than that.” Sister-in-law Fu's family raised chickens. She mostly kept them for herself and sent them to Mimura for sale.

“The town is full of twelve pennies, and Jomo has six eggs.” Gu Chunzhu frowned.

“At the mouth of the three villages, it's only ten cents a pound. It's also about six eggs. There are few people there who can't sell it yet. Chicken farming is for their own children. The family is strong enough to eat alone. It's going to be broken if you can't eat it!” Sister-in-law Fu said a heartbreaking shaking eyebrow.

“Sister-in-law, how about...” Gu Chunzhu thought of the same routine as selling river shrimp.

Sister-in-law Fu also thought, happy clapping hands, “Why don't I just sell you according to the price at the mouth of Mimura. The extra money counts for you. Selling eggs for me would be a relief to me. ”

“All right!” The two of them snap together.
