The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family Chapter 212

  Chapter 212 Delivering meat to your door

   "How do you want to sell your sheep? By the catty on the scale or by the whole sheep?" Li Xuemei saw that Nanny Rong nodded, and began to ask the price.

  When the boy heard this, he finally came back to his senses, and said cautiously: "My lady, we weighed them before we came, and the two sheep weighed more than sixty catties, but less than seventy catties.

  If you want to buy it, it costs three renminbi and fifty-one sheep, a total of seven renminbi. "

  Li Xuemei did some calculations and found that the price is reasonable.

   Cheaper than buying them in town.

   It's home delivery again.

   "Okay, my family bought these two sheep, you wait a moment." Li Xuemei turned and went back to get the money.

   "Mother-in-law, why are there no people in your village?" the child asked curiously.

  Nurse Rong pointed to her mouth and waved her hand.

   The two understood it, but she couldn't speak.

  Li Xuemei came back soon, gave seven qian, and changed the ownership of the two rams.

  Nurse Rong took the two sheep away and put them together with the ewes at home.

  When the three sheep meet, they bleat at each other.

  The two people in front heard it, and the child's eyes lit up.

   "It's my ewe, which has not been eaten. Auntie, your family raised it?!"

  Li Xuemei smiled and nodded.

   "Come on! Let's see who gets to the big rock first!" A group of children ran over from the north.

   The two of them stared dumbfounded at the children who rushed over suddenly.

  Everyone was carrying a wooden stick and a similar pannier behind their backs. When they saw these two strangers, their first reaction was particularly scary.

   Surrounded them all around, staring at them intently, even the hand holding the wooden stick felt a little tighter.

   "You...you...what are you doing?" The child's uncle tremblingly protected the money he had just received, clutching it tightly.

   "What are you doing, what are you doing around people!" A familiar voice came from behind.

  The child looked intently, and the boy who blared last time came over with a longer wooden stick.

   All the way there are children to give way to her, very majestic.

   "The child is you, are you here to sell sheep?" Yan Yu hurriedly asked her mother: "Mom, did our family buy sheep?"

  Li Xuemei hummed, and said, "I took both ends and bought them both."

  Yan Yu was so happy!

  The smile on your face is as bright as it needs to be.

   "Dismiss and dismiss! Everyone go back to their homes!" She started to push people away.

  The boy scouts who had heard the order to disband should have dispersed.

  But when they heard about buying sheep, no one was willing to leave.

   "Xiao Er, your family has bought sheep again, and you have to return two. Is there a male this time? Is it ready to be paired with cubs?"

   "Second Aunt Yan, can we come into your house and have a look?"

"I also want to see."

   "And me and me..."

  All have a very strong interest in Yan's sheep.

  Li Xuemei waved her hand, "Let's all go and see, Miss Rong, please watch from the side, don't hurt them."

  Nurse Rong took the order and left.

  A large group of children entered Yan's yard in an orderly manner.

  Don't say it, this is the first time they have entered Toutou's house.

   Unconsciously, his footsteps became lighter.

   Along the way, the children discussed in low voices.

   "When Yan's sheep have cubs, the cubs grow up, and the cubs are born again. There are many sheep, can we take one home to raise?"

   "Then when will we have to wait, why don't we think of a way to buy a big sheep and let's raise them together, just like raising rabbits."

   Several rabbits are now owned by the Scout collective.

  Their leader said that when the rabbits have more litters, they will kill a few to eat meat, and then eat them again in the future, and there will always be more.

   "I don't know if the work points we earn are enough. I'll ask Yan Xiaoer later, how much is a sheep, and whether our boy scouts can afford it."

   "By the way, why don't we go to the reed beach to catch wild ducks, they can be raised too."

   "Good idea, let's go later."

  The three sheep stood quietly, aiming at a large group of human cubs with one eye, not daring to move.

   "The one with the horns is the ram, and the one without the horns is the ewe."

   "It looks like the ram is bigger and has more meat."

  Little Gouzi took out a handful of grass from his back basket, and tentatively handed it over.

  A ram looked at him for a long time, then lowered its head and began to eat.

  Aroused the sudden cry of the children, and they all searched for it from the back basket.

  When they go into the mountains, they will also pick some fresh grass for the rabbits, and they will know what the rabbits like to eat after a few downs. Since then, they will come back every time they go into the mountains.

   Unexpectedly, sheep also like to eat.

  The children's enthusiasm frightened the sheep.

   Backs away while chewing grass.

  Nurse Rong gathered the grass in their hands together and put it in the trough.

  Three sheep walked over and ate obediently.

   Having seen enough sheep, the children ran to the river.

   Prepare to catch the wild ducks in the reed beach.

   "Have you entered the mountain?" The child hurriedly said, "You can't enter this mountain casually. There are big insects in the mountain! They can eat people!"

   Big bug? tiger?

  Yan Yu turned her head and asked, "Really? Has anyone seen it?"

  The child is very serious: "If you see it, will you still be alive?" After thinking for a while, he said: "But our village and my grandma's village all pass it this way."

   added: "In addition to the big worm, there are also wild boars. When it's hard to find food in the cold mountains, the wild boars have gone out of the mountains and entered the village. It's so scary!"

  Yan Yu's saliva is secreting.

so good? Deliver the meat yourself?

   "Is there any Orion near here?" Yan Yu asked.

  She has to ask more clearly, she is not afraid of anything else, but afraid of falling into the trap dug by the Orion.

The child's brother-in-law said: "There used to be, but later I heard that they were recruited down the mountain. Hunting is very dangerous. In winter, it is even more difficult to walk in the mountains. It is only a few months when you can hunt all year round. It is better to farm the land honestly." Profitable."

  Yan Yu understood.

  Like hunters, they also have to pay taxes, which seem to be more than the farmers who are farming their land.

  This kind of family, if you say a few people go into the mountains together, how can they be like their village, wishing the whole village would run into the mountains.

   These days, they were a big guy and didn't look at them.

   Presumably wild animals are smart, knowing that there are so many two-legged beasts that they cannot be provoked, so they avoid them far away.

   It was agreed that any more sheep would be delivered to her home, and Yan Yu watched them leave the village.

   "Mother, shall we kill one today?" Yan Yu asked her mother for her opinion.

  Li Xuemei nodded hesitantly: "Kill it, we don't have much meat at home, this sheep is enough for us to eat for a few days, so we don't have to go to town."

   "It doesn't matter if you don't kill them. We still have a lot of pig offal. Madam Rong's stew is so delicious. I think Master Lu and the others like it too."

  The reason why Yan Yu repented was because she thought of her father and wanted to stay for a few days, and then kill the sheep and eat meat when her father came back.

  Li Xuemei guessed her little thought, "You can't let people eat pork offal every day. Although it is delicious, it doesn't sound good when you say it."

   I thought his family was reluctant to buy meat for the workers, which made people laugh.

   Occasionally eating once or twice is okay, but eating it for God's sake is not the case.

   "I don't know how my father is doing now?"

  Yan Yu looked towards the direction of the river.

  Father has been away for a few days. If it was only a nearby village, he should have returned early in the morning.

  At the moment there is no one, I am afraid that he really went further, to Longxing.
