Group pet little lucky girl: Jiaojiao bag brings the whole family rich

Chapter 165 Buying Lanterns

At the door of Fat Miao'er's house.

"Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang have worked hard, let's come, let's come."

Seeing the two people coming, Liu Ye'er and Luo Pan hurried forward to help.

"It's not hard, what is this little work."

Old man Zhang smiled and said polite words.

Old man Zhang took a bucket of frogs into the main room, and the other bucket and bean sprouts into the kitchen.

"Grandpa Zhang, take the frog to the main room to deal with, the kitchen is busy." Liu Ye'er reminded.

"I'm afraid you won't be too busy. My family has finished processing this bucket for you early in the morning. It can be washed and chopped before it can be put into the pot."

Old man Zhang lifted the lid of the bucket, sure enough!The frog inside is processed.

"Thank you Grandpa Zhang!" Liu Ye'er laughed.

"It's all from my own family, I'll be angry if you're so polite!"

Old man Zhang scowled, pretending to be angry.

Liu Ye'er smiled shyly, took out the frog and started to work, Compass also came to the kitchen to help, old man Zhang, old lady Zhang, and Fat Miao'er were processing another bucket of frog in the main room.

After an hour of busy work, the first bucket of frogs has been prepared, and we just wait for the clay pot to come back.

"Grandpa Zhang, Grandma Zhang, thank you, hurry home and rest, we can do the rest."

Fat Miao'er said to the two of them that it was a waste of time to deal with two hundred frogs, and the old Zhang's family must have been busy before dawn.

"Okay, let's go back first, I just happened to go to the charcoal kiln to have a look."

Because of the cold weather, the old man Zhang and Hu's father on duty at night will not go, but Zhang Yongshun, Zhang Yonghe, Hu Lidong, and Hu Lichun will go.

"The road is slippery in the snow, Grandpa Zhang, slow down." Fat Miaoer reminded.

"Don't worry, your grandpa Zhang is still young!"

Old man Zhang laughed loudly. Since earning money with Fat Miao'er, his family's life has improved, he has stopped working so hard, and he has become younger.

After the two left, half an hour later, Li Xiaodao and Wei Shu rushed back.

Another burst of busy work, eighty cans of boiled frogs were loaded into the car, and Li Xiaodao and Luo Pan left.

Because Fat Miao'er asked the Hu family for help, Hu Lidong has already arrived with an ox cart. After the second pot is ready, Fat Miao'er, Wei Shu, and Liu Ye'er will send it to the town to meet Li Xiaodao.

Qingyang Town.

Today is the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, and every household has hung up red lanterns. Some people have finished posting couplets and blessings. This town is full of red and red, full of New Year flavor.

As expected, more than 200 cans of boiled frogs were sold out in an hour and a half.

Fat Miao'er asked Hu Lidong to go back first. After all, the charcoal kiln needs manpower, and the five of them wandered around the town.

As the end of the new year is approaching, the number of people setting up stalls has not decreased but increased, and there are all kinds of new year goods.

Fat Miao'er and Liu Ye'er each held a bunch of candied haws in their hands, eating happily.

"Brother, let's go buy two lanterns too."

Fat Miao'er looked at the red lanterns hung by the merchants on both sides, and suggested.

"Let's buy two big ones and hang them at the gate. The next year will be prosperous and rich."

Compass was the first to agree, saying auspicious words.

"I know a shop whose lanterns are particularly good, strong and festive. I delivered to his house when I was at the dock, but the location is a bit off."

Hearing this, Li Xiaodao said.

"No problem, our boiled frogs are all sold out, there is plenty of time, let's go."

Fat Miao'er waved his hand, and the five drove the donkey cart straight to the lantern shop.

After some bargaining, the five finally bought two big lanterns for [-] Wen, and four candles for [-] Wen.

A few people walked out of the lantern shop, and the five of them were going to have a meal at Zhang Ji Restaurant, which is where the dream started.

As soon as he walked to the street, the compass pointed to the distance and said in surprise: "Look, fat meow, isn't that your second uncle?"

Hearing this, Fat Miao'er looked along the hand of the compass, and saw that Zhou Laoer was coming out of a house with the word "gambling", hugging his shoulders with a person, looking like a good brother, with a hand in his hand. Holding a handful of money, he was kicking in his arms.

Maybe it was because they were too busy chatting and didn't notice Fat Miao'er and the others, they turned a corner and left.

"where is that?"

Fat Miao'er pointed to the house and asked.

"That's a gambling house, the biggest gambling house in Qingyang Town, it's called Jucai Pavilion, I heard people say it when I was begging for food on the street." Wei Shu explained.

Gambling shop, isn't that just a modern casino, the so-called ten bets and nine cheats, how many people have lost their fortunes because of gambling.

Although Fat Miao'er didn't have a good relationship with Zhou's second child, he and Zhou's third child had no separation, so if anything happened, it would definitely affect her father.

No wonder Mrs. Zhou asked Ma Shi about the whereabouts of Zhou's second child when giving the boxing gift yesterday. She looked a little guilty. It turned out that Zhou's second child came to gamble.

She remembered that Mr. Zhou didn't allow the Zhou family to gamble, so he grabbed and broke his legs.

This time Zhou Lao Er committed crimes against the wind, and the rewards he can get must be quite considerable.

The more it gets to this time, the more dangerous it is, and people may be deceived and bankrupt at any time.

She had to tell her father about this when she went back, and let him make preparations early, or stop Zhou Lao Er, so she would inevitably be caught off guard in the future.

Fat Miao'er shook her head, stopped thinking about it, and said to Li Xiaodao: "Brother, let's go, I'm starving."

"it is good!"

Li Xiaodao responded, and drove the donkey cart forward.

When they came to the restaurant, they all ordered meat buns this time, which was not bad.

After everyone finished their meal, they saw a little beggar begging on the side of the road as soon as they stepped out of Zhang Ji's restaurant.

Liu Ye'er turned around and walked over, took out ten copper plates from her purse and put them into the broken bowl.

"Thank you girl, I wish you all the best!"

The little beggar thanked him again and again. With the ten coins, he would not have to go hungry this year.

The little beggar was about the same age as Liu Ye'er, and his actions reminded Liu Ye'er of himself.

Several people were begging on the street in the same way last winter. It was because of Fat Miaoer that they got rid of this fate.

Liu Ye'er said softly: "You don't need to thank me, go and buy some food, it's cold outside, don't freeze."

After speaking, Liu Ye'er returned to the donkey cart, and returned to Dashi Village with Fat Miao'er and the others.

Along the way, Liu Ye'er frowned slightly, not knowing whether she was pitying the little beggar, or recalling the sad past.

Although Fat Miao'er has lived in a ruined temple, she has never been a beggar, so she doesn't know the sadness of it, but she can see through Liu Ye'er's mind.

After they settled down in the main room, Fat Miao'er walked up to Liu Ye'er, took her hand and said, "Sister, have a better New Year's Eve."

"I'm fine!"

The corner of Liu Ye'er's mouth twitched, forcing out a smile.

Fat Miao'er turned to look at Li Xiaodao, Compass, and Wei Shu, and suggested, "How about we send some corn cakes to those little beggars on New Year's Eve?"

"I agree!"

Compass jumped up from his chair and was the first to raise his hand in agreement.

"I know where those little beggars live, and I can lead the way." Li Xiaodao answered.

Wei Shu didn't speak, and looked at Fat Miao'er with a look of relief.

Hearing this, Liu Ye'er frowned, and patted Fat Miao'er's hand.

"Fat Meow, you are so kind!"
