The factory was suspended and the annual vacation started, but Qin Yao could not stop for a few days as she wished and stay at home.
The twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month is a good day to kill the New Year pig.
Liu Dafu's family took the lead and wanted to kill two pigs.
One of them is specially used to treat the whole village to kill pig rice.
At dawn, the men of Liu Dafu's family came to the village to call for help. Every household, as long as there was room available, went to help.
Qin Yao heard the screams of pig killing coming from the village early in the morning, so she turned over and continued to sleep.
Until noon, the grandson of Liu Dafu's family came over and shouted: “Mother-in-law, come to my house to eat pig-killing rice!”
She didn't listen to Liu Ji's complaints at all.
But this is not difficult for Liu Ji.
Dalang smiled, and Ma Liu climbed onto the bullock cart and sat next to Sanlang.
He waved his hand and said, "Awang, come down, sir. I will drive the car today."
Dalang glanced at Si Niang, who was sitting on Ngawang's shoulder. The perspective of an adult from a height was completely different from the perspective she had seen in the past. She could see all the people and stalls on the street at a glance. The little girl's eyes rolled with joy. non-stop.
Qin Yao reached out and ruffled the child's messy hair, and said confidently: "It's just a jar of soju, I can't get drunk."
The hospitality was so great that Qin Yao had another meal.
Qin Yao's eyes moved, following the small hand in front of her eyes, her eyes fell on Sanlang's face, and asked with a lazy smile: "What's wrong?"
Awang was responsible for the purchasing task. He paid a few more pennies, drove straight to the slaughterhouse, and got half a fan of pork first.
Qin Yao thought of Liu Ji's article yesterday, and saw that Sanlang took out five coins and handed them to her like a treasure, and sighed: "Your second brother is much more generous than your father."
He was just lazy. He fell down on the chair in the main room as soon as he entered the door, staring at one place, a little confused.
After the pigs were killed, each family took their share and went home. The village chief came over and invited Qin Yao to eat at home.
The four brothers and sisters have fifty cents of pocket money every month. Erlang has enough pocket money for three months in one fell swoop, which makes Sanlang and his mother envious.
As soon as they entered the city, Erlang, the four brothers and his sister took Liu Ji to find a stall to sell goods.
This rare gadget is indeed very popular.
“Has the windmill been sold today?”
These days of the new year coincide with the market, which is a good day for people from all over the country to go to the city to buy new year's goods.
Liu Ji was driving the car, teasing her from time to time and asking her daughter to pick one for him.
Fortunately, there were people on the street selling bacon and sausages that were too old to eat last year. The price was very cheap and affordable. He bought them all and calculated that he should have enough meat, so he felt relieved.
Deduct the cost of 200 Wen, leaving 166 Wen.
Qin Yao drank a lot of wine, but she was not drunk.
But with this half fan of pork, Awang was still worried that there would not be enough food for the few mouths at home.
Awang didn't wait long when he saw the father and son closing up the stall and coming towards him with a high-spirited smile.
Saburo curiously walked up to A Niang, raised his little hand and waved it in front of her eyes.
Him generously gave the eldest brother, three younger brothers and four younger sisters five cents each, leaving 151 cents.
Liu Ji took the lead and led Sanlang and Si Niang to work hard to find ways to greet passers-by. The first man and the second man received money one by one.
When Qin Yao finished eating Liu Dafu's pig-killing rice and ran to the second house, Liu Ji and others returned home.
The twins are begging the second brother to take them with him next time so that they can make money together.
When Qin Yao came into the house smelling of alcohol, Liu Ji complained: "It's so late and I'm still not home. If I had known, I'd have drunk you to death outside!"
But once we have a beginning, everything goes smoothly.
So in the end Erlang received a total of 150 Wen coins.
Saburo nodded with deep sympathy, but he didn't want a penny too much. He put the coins one by one into his small purse and shook them around, making a jingling sound, which made him feel happy.
The five father and son cooperated tacitly, and soon all the windmills brought by Erlang were sold out.
It was late to eat, so Liu Ji asked Dalang Erlang to come over to remind her, and then he called her home.
Liu Ji and Awang took the children into the city early in the morning.
No, in order to wash away the shame of being given away by Liu Ji yesterday, Erlang generously stuffed the extra penny into Liu Ji's pocket.
In order to haul more goods, the ox cart we drove today was full of goods, leaving only a small half of the empty seats. Sanlang and Si Niang squatted up, and Erlang could barely sit on the shaft of the cart. Liu Ji and Dalang had to rely on them. feet walking.
Si Niang didn't want to, so she started quarreling childishly. The three brothers Awang and Dalang shook their heads.
Without any effort, Siniang was able to successfully grab an iceberg with her little hands and laughed happily.
Click the whip and drive ahead.
Liu Ji was not upset at all. Mosquito legs were also meat, so he happily accepted them.
Saburo smiled sheepishly, "I thought you were drunk."
Qin Yao then stretched, dressed and washed in two minutes, locked the door and followed Le Hehe's children to his house to eat delicious pig-killing rice.
The villagers helped Liu Dafu's family kill two pigs in the morning, took a break at noon, and continued to kill the two pigs bought by the villagers in the afternoon.
The remaining New Year's goods are basically to make up for whatever the family lacks. The big-headed Qin Yao and his wife had already bought and prepared them from Fucheng.
Only by taking advantage of the excitement can we raise the price of the items to be sold by one or two cents and make a little more money.
One windmill sold for 15 cents, and some people bargained for less if they bought two, so 25 windmills sold for a total of 366 cents.
Those who have brought children and have plenty of money will basically not be able to withstand the hardships of the children and will end up spending money soon.
By the time Awang finished his shopping and found his father and son, Erlang's stall had just been opened and a windmill was sold.
After New Year's Eve, the market will not be open until the 15th day of the first lunar month, so stock up on fresh meat.
“Aunt Yao!”
Ang Wang said "Oh", jumped out of the car, put the whip into Liu Ji's hand, then took Siniang out of the car, and carried her on his shoulders amidst the little girl's surprised cry.
At the mention of the windmill, Saburo's eyes lit up and he nodded heavily, "Yeah, the sales were very good. They were all sold out in a while. The second brother even gave us five cents each."
Liu Ji said twice: "It's so good, it's so good!"
Awang carried Siniang on his back and followed him, and his speed was not slow. On the road, if Siniang wanted to pick an iceberg from the branch above her head, Awang would lightly jump up and carry her up into the air.
Erlang woke up the whole family before dawn, fearing that he would be late and not be able to grab a good stall to sell windmills.
“Da Lang, you get in the car.” Awang pointed to the vacant seat and motioned for Da Lang to get on.
Dalang and Awang walked in. Liu Ji was still cursing in the kitchen while making tea, preparing for Qin Yao to drink to relieve the hangover.
As for the fact that Qin Yao was not drunk at all, he completely ignored it.
Qin Yao didn't bother to care about what he said. Anyway, this man always had to be self-motivated several times a month, and she had long been used to it. (End of chapter)
