I farmed and built a villa in ancient times

Chapter 8 Buy Chicken Morning

Zhou Baoyu came out after untying his hands. When he saw this serious scene, he quickly grabbed Zhou Chenyu and said, "Sister, let's leave quickly. These people from the government office are doing business. Let's not get in their way. It will be bad if we offend others."

Baoyu pulled twice, but didn't see his sister getting up, and asked doubtfully: "Sister, how can you do it?"

Zhou Chenyu raised his head and grabbed Zhou Baoyu's hand, "Baoyu, I seem to be poisoned."

what?
Zhou Baoyu put down the cart and became nervous, "Sister, what's wrong with you? I've only been here for a moment, how come you were poisoned? What kind of poison were you poisoned?"

Zhou Chenyu held his hot cheeks with both hands and reluctantly moved his eyes away, "I may have been poisoned by love."

???

Although Zhou Baoyu was still at an age where he was ignorant about matters between men and women, he followed his older playmates in the village and heard many interesting stories about talented people and beautiful women.

He followed his sister's gaze and frowned in confusion as he recalled the conversation last night, "Sister, didn't you tell mother last night that you didn't like men and that you wanted me to support you in your old age?"

Zhou Chenyu felt like his face was slapped twice, and it still hurt. "Did I...did I?"

"Have!"

"no!"

Zhou Baoyu stared at her, blinking his big eyes and saying seriously, "Sister, if you don't believe it, we can go back and ask Mom tonight, and we'll find out as soon as we ask."

"Then...you can say yes. But," Zhou Chenyu blinked guiltily, put his arms around Zhou Baoyu's neck, and smiled to fool him, "This person can't just look at the problem, he has to use dialectical thinking, you know? You know? It is impossible for a person to step into the same river again in this life, because the river will change. Rivers will change, and people will naturally change. How can the me of yesterday be compared to the me of today?"

Zhou Chenyu talked a lot, and Zhou Baoyu scratched his head after listening to it, "Sister, what is dialectics? Can it be eaten?"

Looking at his racking his brains, Zhou Chenyu felt as if he had eaten a big mouthful of flies and called out, "I think your brain is starving. Go buy cooking cakes quickly. I'll wait for you here."

When it came to buying food, Zhou Baoyu immediately forgot about the man. After getting the money, he immediately ran to the cake stall diagonally opposite.

Zhou Chenyu looked over there again with interest.

The man didn't know what he said to his subordinates, and the people below responded with a high-spirited yes. Their energetic faces looked like those in the sales department who had taken a shot of blood after shouting slogans in the morning.

It wasn't a great experience, but the handsome guy was still worth watching.

Zhou Chenyu changed to a position with a better view, propped up his chin, and still looked at him with a look of infatuation.

The man seemed to be aware of her presence and glanced at her coldly, without any expression on his face.

Zhou Chenyu was immersed in his own world, staring at him as if no one else was around, his eyebrows smiling like two crescent moons, "Oh, he turns out to be a cold and handsome guy, what should I do? I like him more and more."

"Sister, I've bought the pancakes, they're so hot." Zhou Baoyu came over with the pancakes, and the big-faced plate blocked Zhou Chenyu's view.

"Hey, don't block my view." When Zhou Chenyu looked over again, the handsome man had already entered the house and disappeared.

She sighed regretfully, took the cake from Zhou Baoyu, and looked at it eagerly, wishing she could put her head in, "I don't know what the handsome guy's last name is? Where do you live? Is there anyone you want?"

Zhou Baoyu saw her staring straight ahead reluctantly, and came over with a big head, trying to be smart, "Sister, how about I ask you something? This gentleman works in the government office, he must be a local, and he will definitely be able to find out something." thing."

inquire about?Zhou Chenyu's hands shook twice and the hot pancake almost fell to the floor.

The skin of the pancake is golden and slightly burnt, and it looks delicious.

What's the use of a handsome guy? He can't be used as food.

"I'm warning you, please don't meddle in other people's business." Zhou Chenyu put away his smile, opened his mouth wide and took a bite. It was so delicious.

"Sister, don't you like him very much? Although our family's situation is a bit worse, if you like him, sister, you might as well give it a try? What if it's a destined match?" Baoyu showed a slight smile, his mouth was oily, " I will do anything for my sister’s lifelong happiness.”

Zhou Chenyu raised his eyebrows and took two more bites of the pancake. It was as if he had bitten into a big fat piece of meat. He swallowed the oil and water, and felt nausea rising in his stomach.

She swallowed it, glanced at Zhou Baoyu's silly smile, and said lazily: "This good-looking man is like this piece of cake in front of me. When he hasn't eaten it, he always thinks about it, but once it reaches his mouth, he doesn't eat much. You get tired of your mouth very quickly. Don’t you think so? Only men who can’t get it are the best.”

Zhou Baoyu was thrown into a ditch, "It seems to make sense."

After the two of them finished cooking the cakes, they followed Li Xiuju's instructions and went to buy vegetable seeds.

They went to the pawn shop to buy seeds. The flow of people on the street had begun to decrease. Zhou Chenyu was attracted by a live poultry market on the street.

The chickens in the wooden box have been sold out, and there are still five thin ones left, huddled together like eggs.

Many chickens bought in modern supermarkets are raised on feed and taste dull and fluffy, with no chicken flavor at all.

Now the Zhou family's yard is so big, and there is a large wasteland behind the house. Isn't it a perfect place to raise free-range chickens?

"Baoyu, do you want to eat chicken?" Zhou Chenyu's eyes hinted, and Baoyu's eyes lit up, "I've been thinking about it for a long time! If mother knows, she will be very happy."

Zhou Chenyu squatted down and touched the chicken. The wilted chicken immediately became energetic and spread out. The bright yellow chicken feathers were smooth and soft, just like a kitten that was a few months old. "Sister, how can I sell this chicken?"

Seeing that Zhou Chenyu and Zhou Baoyu were young, the vendor prepared sacks aside and yelled a high price, "Girl, you came at the right time. If it were this morning, my little chicken would have cost ten cents each." It's getting late now, and I'm in a hurry to go home and heat up the children's food, so I'll give it to you at a discount of seven cents."

Zhou Baoyu believed it as soon as he heard it and silently counted the money, "Is it so expensive?"

But Zhou Chenyu smiled. A modern chicken only costs six or seven yuan. According to the consumption of one tael converted into 1000 yuan, it can be bought for about three cents. They must be trying to fool them because they are young. chant.

The routines of the wet market are all understood by young people who have suffered losses.

She grabbed the remaining chickens in the circle and looked at them again and again, "It's indeed a bit expensive."

As if being touched, the merchant loudly defended: "Girl, this is already a very good deal. Wherever you can get such a good deal, just buy it."

Zhou Chenyu took a critical look, waved his hands and stood up, "These are just leftover chickens. Look at that wilted chicken. Baoyu, let's go look elsewhere."

Baoyu hurriedly followed, "Sister, you really don't want to buy it? 35 cents, I think it's quite cheap."

Zhou Chenyu was full of confidence when he heard the merchant's anxious voice, "Why are you so anxious? She will definitely catch up."

The merchant saw that there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road. Without this customer, it would be difficult to meet other customers later.
