Abandoned Wife Headed Home: Bringing Fubao to Farming

Chapter 27

While beating the dog's eggs, Da Lan stared at Xiao Yuejie.

Is this little chubby doing it on purpose?As bad as his mother Zhou Songxia.

On the side, Xiao Fubao was also staring closely at the handful of hawthorns that Xiao Yuejie was holding.

But he didn't act like Goudan, he just secretly swallowed his saliva.

Little Eyeball looked at Xiao Yuejie's feet from time to time, hoping to pick up one or two wild hawthorns that he had missed.

It's a pity that Xiao Fubao's eyes were almost sore, except for the pile of hawthorn seeds Xiao Yuejie vomited on the ground, there was nothing Xiao Fubao wanted.

"What's the matter? Why is Goudan crying like this?"

Shen Yinger asked and came this way.

Seeing that Da Lan was actually beating Goudan, she hurried over and pulled Goudan aside.

"Sister-in-law Da Lan, please speak up if you have something to say, don't hit the child!"

Da Lan was furious, pointed at Xiao Yuejie over there, and told Shen Yinger what had happened.

"I can't help being angry, look at your family's treasure baby, who is a few months younger than Goudan, and he can bear it. My family is not up to date, and Laiwang and I have lost all face! "

Shen Ying'er understood the whole process and couldn't help laughing.

"Sister-in-law, you are too, children, how can there be anyone who is not greedy?"

However, Fu Bao'er does have backbone, which Shen Ying'er is very pleased with.

"Don't cry, you son of a bitch, let's see what delicious food my aunt brings to you."

Shen Ying'er greeted the three children to her, and pulled out three candied haws from behind as if by magic, one for each child.

"Wow, candied haws!"

Both Qiaomei and Xiao Fubao cheered happily.

Goudan's tears were still hanging on his face, sobbing and tearing at the wrapping paper of the candied haws, wrapped the candied haws in his mouth with tears and snot, and choked.

Shen Ying'er helped Xiao Fubao unwrap the wrapping paper, and stuffed the candied haws into his hands.

Xiao Fubao's gaze had been chasing her hand before, and he kept licking his tongue.

Now that the candied haws were in her hands, Shen Ying'er thought that he would eagerly stuff them into her mouth like a dog's egg, but in the end, the candied haws were delivered to Shen Yinger's mouth.

"Mother eats first."

Shen Yinger was stunned.

"Mother has eaten, this is for you." She said softly.

"I'll ask mother to eat another one." Xiao Fubao was grinning, but his eyes were full of stubbornness.

Shen Yinger's heart was moved, she gently bit the top one, and held it in her mouth, but it was so sweet to her heart.

On the side, Da Lan looked at this scene, and also at how wolfish his dog's egg was, wishing he could hit the dog's egg on the ground again.

Several children came to Xiao Yuejie with candied haws.

Little chubby Xiao Yuejie looked at the candied haws in the hands of the three people. They were bright red and covered with white icing, and the wild hawthorn in his hand suddenly became stale.

Xiao Fubao smashed his mouth and said to Xiao Yuejie: ​​"Who wants to eat sour and sweet candied haws?"

Xiao Yuejie hurriedly raised his hand: "I, I!"

Xiao Fubao grinned, with his short legs spread apart, pointing to his crotch wearing crotch pants: "Come on, slip through me, and I'll reward you with one!"

Little chubby Xiao Yuejie really dropped the wild hawthorn in his hand and knelt down on the ground, ready to drill into Xiao Fubao's crotch.

Zhou Songxia rushed over, grabbed the little chubby by the ear and pulled it back, cursing: "A bunch of shallow-sighted things, isn't it just a bunch of candied haws? What's there to show off! Call your father later!" Kill the big rooster and let you eat the chicken legs, and starve to death those little bastards..."

Here, Shen Ying'er and Da Lan looked at each other and smiled.

Da Lan said: "Obviously it was their mother and son who showed off first, but they put the blame on us."

Shen Ying'er said: "They call it lifting a brick and hitting their own foot."

Da Lan nodded, rubbed her heart again and said, "I've finally recovered from this incident. I was so angry that my heart hurts, but now I'm not angry anymore."

Shen Ying'er pursed her lips happily: "Being angry hurts the liver, so stop being angry."

At night, Huo Sheng returned.

Shen Ying'er told the couple what they saw at the rice store in the town during the day.

The couple were shocked when they heard that the price of rice had doubled.

Huo Sheng said with a bitter face: "I managed to transfer 550 Wen to Uncle Li Zheng for emergency, and promised to pay him back [-] Wen during the Chinese New Year. Now it's all right. I bought a bucket of indica rice or japonica rice when I was exhausted. Can't buy it yet!"

"A bucket of indica rice can last for ten days at most, hey!"

Hearing Huo Sheng's sigh, Shen Ying'er was also thinking about it in her heart.

A bucket of rice here is equivalent to fifteen catties in later generations.

If it was really a bucket of rice, Huosheng and Ximei could survive for nearly 20 days with a little food.

But now Shen Ying'er saw it with her own eyes at the rice grain shop, and there was something wrong with the bucket itself.

In addition, the weighing guy has a knack for lifting the bucket. It seems that a bucket of rice is full, but when it actually falls into the buyer's bag, it is estimated that only [-]% to [-]% is left!
In other words, if you spend four to five hundred renminbi to buy a bucket of rice, you only get ten catties, and the ten catties are not evenly packed, and gravel is mixed in...

"This is really a dead end..." Ximei murmured, tears welling in her eyes.

Huo Sheng also had a serious face, sighed, and fell silent.

But Shen Ying'er said again: "Brother Huosheng, sister-in-law Ximei, I think the price of this rice has to go up. My suggestion is that we have to raise money as soon as possible to get some food in our hands, otherwise it will become more expensive in the future! "

Ximei stared blankly at Shen Yinger, her mind was blank.

Huo Sheng, on the other hand, looked helpless, and said with a wry smile, "Fourth brother and sister, I understand what you're saying, but we only have five hundred Wen, what can we do with it..."

Shen Ying'er interrupted Huo Sheng: "I still have some money on hand, I can lend it to you!"

Huo Sheng and Xi Mei thought they had heard wrong.

Ximei said, "Fourth brother and sister, stop joking. Buying food is not like buying sweet potatoes. It costs a lot of money..."

Shen Ying'er directly stuffed two taels of silver into Ximei's hands.

"Is two taels of silver enough?" She asked, staring into Ximei's eyes.

She had already figured it out for them before.

According to today's market, two taels of silver can buy four buckets of indica rice, and if they count the five hundred coins they have on hand, they can buy five buckets!

Five buckets of rice can last almost two months!
As long as you survive these two months, you will be able to catch up with the late rice entering the warehouse.

After lending out two taels of silver, I happened to have two taels of silver left on hand.

I and Xiao Fubao have small appetites, so we should be able to last for two months by stocking up on two or three buckets.

When the late rice matures in two months, the price of rice will naturally fall.

After this wave of stockpiling food, the remaining money can be used to buy some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

Ximei stared at the two taels of silver in her hand in disbelief, feeling like she was dreaming.

On the side, Huo Sheng was already excited, he nodded repeatedly, "Enough, enough, two liang of silver can buy five buckets of rice, it's all right!"

While excited, Huo Sheng and Xi Mei wondered, where did the fourth sibling get their money?
