Da Song a knife

Chapter 236

Zhang Sijiu fell into a drowsy sleep all day. When he woke up, he drank water, took medicine, and went to the toilet. On the kang, she felt like she was alive again.

Although the symptoms of a cold are still there, the back vest no longer hurts, and the temperature is basically normal.As long as it doesn't burn up again at night, it's better.

A basket of fresh fruits was placed in a small bamboo basket on the top of the kang, including bright red persimmons, oranges, several small apples and juicy pears.

The persimmons are not from ordinary persimmon trees, but authentic Mopan persimmons, which are not found here.

Zhang Sijiu knew at a glance that this was something his family would never buy.After all, it's so expensive, and you can't fill your stomach!With that money, Mrs. Xu would definitely rather buy some snacks and candies to coax the children.

"Where did this come from?" Seeing Zhaoyin coming in, Zhang Sijiu asked her.

"Yang Sanlang asked him to bring it from his servant Chen Dou." Zhao Yin handed the sugarcane water in his hand to Zhang Sijiu, and touched Zhang Sijiu's forehead, feeling that it was indeed not burning, so he spoke in peace : "He heard Doctor Cheng say that you were sick, so he asked Chen Dou to bring you something. Besides this, there is also a bag of sugar, but this fruit is specially for you. There are also dried fruit preserves and a small box of snacks. I Show it to you. Aunt Xu didn't let anyone else see it."

Zhaoyin took out two small wooden boxes from the cabinet.At first glance, that thing is not an exquisite thing that the Xu family can afford.

Open the lid of the wooden box, and there are small compartments inside. There are four small compartments, which can hold things respectively.

One box is dried fruit: candied bayberry, snowflake apricot meat, salted peach meat strips, and candied golden dates.

In the snack box, there are only four pieces of snow-white dragon whiskers wrapped in filaments like hair.

A piece of dragon beard crisp is not big and can be eaten in one bite.

Looking at it, Zhang Sijiu thought of a solemn question: the distribution is uneven——

Zhaoyin saw through Zhang Sijiu's thoughts: "Second Aunt Xu said, since it was given to you alone, don't share it. If you are sick, keep it for yourself."

Zhang Sijiu couldn't laugh or cry.Then he shared a red bayberry with Zhaoyin and put it in his mouth, and put away the others: Actually, you should eat less sweet things when you are sick.Especially this sugar product.

It was the first time for Zhaoyin to eat red bayberry, and the whole person was surprised: "What is this? It's so delicious!"

Zhang Sijiu hadn't eaten this kind of snack for a long time.In the past, I was not greedy for these, and I also felt that I could buy them everywhere, so I didn't cherish them.When you come here, you can buy it even if you have money—these exquisite, long-distance and expensive candied fruit may not be available in the dim sum and dry goods shops in the county town.

If I really want to buy it, I may have to go to Fucheng.

"He didn't bring me a word?" Zhang Sijiu raised his eyebrows and asked Zhao Yin.

Zhaoyin shook his head: "I didn't say anything, I just told you to wait for him to deliver the finished soap. I also said that you can tell him what you want to eat."

Zhang Sijiu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.Probably, if Mrs. Zhou hadn't stopped him, Yang Yuanding would have to come and have a look by himself—fortunately Mrs. Zhou stopped him, otherwise he would be waiting to take medicine together when he came!
"How did you go to butcher the pig today? Did it go well?" Zhang Sijiu remembered that Zhaoyin took over the job of butchering the pig today, so he asked again.

When Zhaoyin mentioned this, he became excited, "Successful! Why didn't it go well! He also picked up three more companies! Butchering pigs is really a lot of money, Jiu Niang, you think I will be a professional pig butcher in the future, okay?"

Her eyes were already shining with excitement: "I can usually sell pork!"

Zhang Sijiu coughed—choked on his own saliva.

She looked at Zhaoyin, and didn't know whether she should be relieved that Zhaoyin has learned to think, or should be shocked by Zhaoyin's informality-good guy really doesn't have a girl's image burden!

After Zhang Sijiu slowed down, he nodded: "Then you can try it if you want. First of all, you have to understand the market, and you have to understand all aspects."

Zhaoyin nodded: "I'll ask more later."

It seemed that she really wanted to do this.

Zhang Sijiu didn't intend to intervene either: Zhaoyin was no longer a child, although he was not considered an adult, he was still considered a young man. He had gradually matured in all aspects of his mind, and he should go to society to hone his skills.It's impossible for me to control her forever.

In the evening, Zhang Sijiu also ate noodles in vinegar soup.

However, it was eaten with Xiaosong, and Xiaobai was not uploaded, so Xu told him not to follow Yang.

Xiaosong was still a little feverish, but he was obviously much better, at least he was energetic, and shouted for Xu to add an extra egg.

Mrs. Xu agreed with a smile, and added two boiled poached eggs for him and Zhang Sijiu.Then sat next to him and took out the soles of his shoes, watching the two of them eat.

When Zhang Sijiu asked about the situation of the children in the village, Xu sighed: "Some people listened to us and took Dr. Cheng's medicine. It’s over. I’m not willing to spend the money.”

Cheng Wanli's prescribing medicine is really not expensive, and this group of children who get sick on a large scale don't need to pay separate consultation fees.

But I didn't expect it to be so cheap, and some people are still reluctant.

Zhang Sijiu picked out a pea tip and ate it: "Every family's situation is different, we did what we should do, and we are worthy of our own conscience."

After she finished speaking, she praised: "Second Aunt, this pea tip is so tender."

"I just picked the top and tenderest ones, why aren't they tender?" Xu laughed, "Eat more, I drank all the noodle soup. It gets better quickly."

"I'll be well tomorrow, so I'll go to my grandfather's place to breed pigs." Zhang Sijiu didn't forget this matter.

Mrs. Xu immediately rejected it: "You don't need to go, I will let them deliver it by themselves in two days. You can take care of it for another two days."

After a pause, she talked about the piggy again: "However, there were other people who came to ask about the piggy during the day. I said you were sick, and you could get it done in two days when you recovered. I told them to send it over in three days. "

She didn't know if this matter was right, but thinking about what Zhang Sijiu said, she felt a little relieved: "It is estimated that more people will come to the door after the new year, and many pigs will give birth at that time."

After a pause, Mrs. Xu discussed with Zhang Sijiu again: "Jiu Niang, do you think we should raise a sow? I wonder if we can make money selling piglets in the future?"

Zhang Sijiu hadn't thought about this before, so he lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then he wanted to understand why Xu Shi thought this way: "Second Aunt thinks that there will be fewer sows by then? So the piglets will be more expensive?"

Xu nodded: "I don't know if I'm right."

"That's right." Zhang Sijiu nodded, but shook his head again: "But this money is not easy to earn. The sows are troublesome to raise, and the second aunt wants to sell lo-mei, so there is no need to earn this money. Our family is too small. .And if you raise sows, you can’t earn much money for one or two, unless you raise seven or eight at a time.”

That is small farms.

　When I was a child, I felt that the dragon beard cake was really high-tech. The beard was so thin, thinner than the hair, and then it was white, fluffy and sweet. It was amazing, and I didn’t know how to make it.It wasn't until I grew up that I saw dragon beard crisps made on the street... I realized that it was a piece of sugar, stretched into filaments and stuffed... Then I realized: Isn't this the same principle as ramen!

　　It was delicious nonetheless.Drooling down, see you tomorrow~
