Candide in Chronology is on strike

In the following period, Qin Xi and Tang Ying would go to the county town every few days.

Tang Ying had never asked how many rabbits Qin Xi sold before, because it was Qin Xi's private matter, but this time she saw that she caught two breeding rabbits, and she couldn't help it.

"Qin Xi, why did you catch the breeding rabbit?"

"Although you have been raising this rabbit for such a long time, it has definitely not been more than four years. These rabbits are still very young. They are the strongest and most fertile in their lives. To sell these breeding rabbits like this is a bit too much. What a pity." She was reluctant to touch the three breeding rabbits in her home.

Those three rabbits were specially selected by Qin Xi for her. It was quite worry-free. She was usually very precious and took good care of them.

“There’s nothing I can do if I don’t sell it!”

"You have been mowing with me during this period. Naturally, you know how difficult these rabbits are to take care of. To be honest, after raising them for so many years, I have also made some money, and I am tired of raising them. There are so many rabbits. I definitely won’t be able to take care of them, so I just want to do the same as you, only raise one male, two females, and three breeding rabbits, and sell all the other rabbits!”

Tang Ying didn't believe any of the reasons given by Qin Xi. No matter how tiring it was to raise rabbits, it would be tiring to work. If she only raised three rabbits, could she use this as an excuse not to work in the future?
As long as you work in the fields, no matter how little work points you get, it is still more tiring than raising rabbits at home.

"Have you really made up your mind?"

"If there are too few rabbits and you don't go to work, what will happen if the villagers gossip?"

After all, those who are jealous of their good life will definitely ruin Qin Xi's reputation by gossiping behind their backs.

Qin Xi thought for a while: "I can cut pig grass! I can also earn two work points."

"There are mushrooms on the mountain. I can pick them up and sell them for money, and I can also dig up herbs. There are always more ways than difficulties."

As for letting her work in the fields for four or five hours at a time, she really couldn't bear it.

When Tang Ying heard this, she couldn't argue: "Okay! It's all up to you."

On the 22th of the twelfth lunar month, Xiaoxue.

Qin Xi took the three selected breeding rabbits, together with Qin Jiang, Qin He and Tang Ying He Yuan, and rushed to the town to take a car.

Qin Jiang and Qin He had no objection at all to Qin Xi's intention to sell the breeding rabbits.

The rabbits at home were originally bought by Qin Xi, and she also took care of the birth of the rabbits. Qin Xi played an important role in the reproduction and expansion of the rabbits at home, and Qin Xi also explained to them how to do so. reasons, they will have no objections.

This time when we went to the county town, Qinjiang and Qinhe also had to spend money, because Qinxi had given them dividends every year since he made a lot of money raising rabbits.

Now the two of them have a lot of money. Qin Jiang has basically not spent much money, and he still has about two hundred yuan. As for Qin He, he has much less money, and he still has about one hundred and fifty-six yuan. .

After earning a lot of money from raising rabbits, Qin Xi started to pay dividends to them. Last year, each of them gave them one hundred yuan, and it is the same this year. Before, when they went to sell rabbits, whenever they had a trip, Qin Xi would give them two yuan. money for travel and food expenses, and never asked them to take out the remaining money.However, the money from selling rabbits must be spent every penny. This is a matter of principle. They cannot touch this money.

As Yun Qing said, the meat at home is always fragrant. That's because no matter who of the three brothers and sisters goes to the black market, they will basically buy some meat or bones to make soup. Even if it is only half a catty of meat, it will be fragrant when cooked. People who are smarter can naturally smell it. People at this time have a natural desire for the smell of meat and are very sensitive to this smell.

When he first went to the countryside, Qin He was still relatively unfamiliar with them. He had no money at that time, and there was nothing special about New Year and birthdays, except that he could eat two boiled eggs on his birthday.

It's different now. They all have money in their hands. A few nights ago, just after dinner, they made an agreement that this year, they would each give each other a New Year's gift. It doesn't need to be expensive, just a gift. As long as the intention is right, it doesn't have to be about money.

Qin Xi knows how to knit scarves. She plans to go to the black market in the county this time to buy some wool and knit scarves. She will give them to her during the Chinese New Year this year. It will definitely be too late, but she can slowly knit them and give them to her eldest and second brother on their birthdays next year. Each of them has a scarf.

As for this New Year's gift, she had to go to the black market to take a closer look, and she didn't want to let her two brothers know about it. If they knew about it, there would be no sense of surprise.

In addition to the five of them, the people waiting for the bus in the town this time were Yun Qing, Fang Zheng, Liu Ming and Chen Liangyu. The four of them were in a group and had agreed to go shopping in the county together to buy things needed for the New Year. .

They arrived very early, the car hadn't arrived yet, the sky was not bright and foggy, everything they saw seemed to be separated by a layer of gray veil, and everything they saw seemed unreal.

Chen Liangyu placed her hand on her slightly bulging belly, her brows furrowed, her face full of sorrow, and there was no joy at all as a first-time mother.

Several years have passed, and the house still has the same two shabby huts. Can Liu Ming really give her and her children a stable and worry-free home?

"What's wrong? You don't seem to be in high spirits. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Yun Qing held little Fangfang in her arms. Tang Ying and Qin Xi, who stood behind her, kept teasing the baby.

She is really well-behaved, she doesn't recognize children, and she doesn't cry no matter how much she teases her. Plus Yun Qing and his wife take good care of her, making her look like a little fairy child. She is very lovable. .

"No, I just feel a little cold." Chen Liangyu shook his head numbly and denied.

The cotton-padded coat she was wearing was one that her mother bought for her when she was not married. Over time, the cotton clumps and the warmth-keeping effect is greatly reduced. Therefore, on a cold day, even if she is wearing a cotton-padded coat, she still feels cold. no.

Chen Liangyu said it was cold, which actually made it difficult for Yun Qing to answer the question, because Chen Liangyu said it was cold because he did not have warm and thick cotton clothes to wear. At this time, the pressure was put on Liu Ming.

But Liu Ming's own situation is not much better!

Her long, greasy, knotted hair, her hunched shoulders, her hands folded and shrunk into her sleeves, and the cloth shoes under her feet were already in tatters. If they hadn't been wrapped with hemp rope, they might have been unwearable. All of this showed that This man was in a state of desolation at this time.

Three years ago, the man who seemed to be on par with Fang Zheng seemed to have become a thing of the past. His bookishness and clear youthfulness were all gone.

Now Chen Yue has become the old girl that everyone calls her. She watched Liu Ming become what he is now little by little, and her heart is full of joy. She is glad that Chen Liangyu snatched him away.
