Fat Niang makes a fortune in farming

Chapter 5
These days, Meng Kejun is familiar with all the people in Wangjiatun. Qiaohui and himself are the best friends. Not only the two families live close to each other, but they are also of the same age. It is because of such affection that Meng Kejun teases Qiaohui like this. Hui.

Being teased by Meng Kejun like this, Qiaohui's face flushed immediately, "I won't tell you anymore!" After finishing speaking, she was about to run home holding her hot face.

But as soon as she took a step, she was stopped by Meng Kejun, "I still have something to do with you!" Originally, she planned to go to Wang's house to look for her after dinner, but now she came by herself, saving herself an extra trip .

"What's the matter?" Hearing Meng Kejun said something was wrong, Qiaohui stopped when she was about to break free.

"Are you free tomorrow? I want you to accompany me to the market!"

"That's it?"

"That's it!"

"Okay, I'll go with you! Let me go quickly!" Qiaohui shook off Meng Kejun's hand holding her arm, and ran out of the room.

"Ouch! You're in such a hurry to go home to meet your lover!" Meng Kejun said with a loud laugh to the back of Qiaohui who was leaving in a hurry at the entrance of the courtyard.

The Dong and Wang families have been neighbors for many years. These days, it is really thanks to the Wang family, especially the Wang family's sons and daughters, Mancang and Qiaohui.

Seeing Pinger who had meat to eat, Qiaohui immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks as soon as she entered the door. With big black eyes, she stared at the crystal clear and fragrant braised pork in the small bowl on the table, and drool .

Meng Kejun was amused by Ping'er's expression, she picked up the chopsticks on the table, and put the largest pieces of braised pork in the small bowl into Ping'er's bowl, "Eat!"

Maybe he was hungry, maybe the braised pork was too gluttonous, Ping'er immediately picked up the chopsticks on the table and ate it, his little head just barely got into the earthenware bowl bigger than his head.

"You eat too!" Without making a sound, Dong Jingye put several pieces of braised pork in Meng Kejun's bowl.

It turned out that it was inappropriate for a grown man to put food in a woman's bowl, but his wife's eyesight is not good, and he really feels sorry for Meng Kejun who has lost a lot of weight in front of him. These days, he has more work and less food. The girl looked thinner and thinner every day.

The few pieces of braised pork in the small bowl were all gone immediately.

Meng Kejun didn't expect Dong Jingye to do such a thing.

Thinking that she was an orphan in her previous life, when she was a child, she always rushed to eat in the orphanage. How could she have enjoyed the warmth of being pressed by the elders to eat first? She really regarded the two old people in front of her as her own biological parents. .Although this family is poor, it is more than enough to have these family affections that make her feel warm.

Quickly picked up the chopsticks, put two pieces of braised pork in his own bowl into Dong Jingye's and Huang's bowls, "Eat it too!"

"I'm an old woman, I don't like meat, you should eat it!" Knowing that Meng Kejun put the meat into her bowl, Huang quickly picked up the bowl and handed it to Meng Kejun, thinking that she would put the meat back.

"You eat, these are all for you!" Dong Jingye used his chopsticks, also planning to take the meat in the bowl back to Meng Kejun.

Meng Kejun, who picked up the bowl and was about to eat, frowned, and she slapped the chopsticks on the table.

This action scared everyone at the table, they all stared at Meng Kejun in a daze, not knowing why she suddenly got angry.

"It tastes delicious when you share the same taste. No one is allowed to say something you don't like at this table in the future!" Meng Kejun knew that if he got angry like this and gave way like this, he didn't know when he would finish the meal. I'm afraid it won't be fun to eat.

Besides, if she doesn't like meat, it's an excuse for the Wang family to say that they can't finish a meal. In this era, if there is someone who doesn't like meat, she will chop off his head and use it as a stool for him to sit on.

"Are you going to the market? Why do you suddenly want to go there?" Huang finally remembered what Meng Kejun and Qiaohui said just now. The Dong family can't afford a penny now. She can't figure out how Meng Kejun, who has no money, wants What to do at the market.

"I see that the dustpans and baskets made by my father can't be exchanged for much money in the village. I might as well sell them in the market. And the eggs saved at home must be sold quickly, otherwise I'm afraid it will be bad in hot weather, so I just took it to the market and sold it together for some oil and salt!"

Looking at the dustpans and baskets made by Dong Jingye under the eaves these past few days, she had already planned to sell them in the market, but she couldn't get away from the heavy work at home these days. ,
"Are you going?" Dong Jingye also put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands.

But Jun has never been out of Wangjiatun since he was picked up by Qingfeng. Although he is sober now, and Qiaohui is with him, but this is going to the market to do business, he can't help but feel a little worried.

It wasn't that he didn't intend to take these dustpan baskets to the market and sell them. His craftsmanship was good, and the dustpan baskets weaved were very popular in several nearby villages.

Helpless, my legs and feet are inconvenient, and the old woman's eyesight is not good.The market is more than ten miles away from Wangjiatun, and it is all about footwork. It takes a long time for a person with able-bodied hands and feet to go back and forth, let alone him and the old woman who have difficulty going out. Those good dustpans and baskets are piled up at home to hold ashes.

"Sister Qiaohui is with you, so don't worry!" Meng Kejun knew what Dong Jingye was worried about. He must be afraid that he, who had never traveled far, would not be able to do this business.

"I'm really sorry for always bothering his old Wang's family!" Dong Jingye shook his head helplessly. He knew that the old Wang's family was warm-hearted, but as the saying goes, the situation of his own family does not know how to trouble the old Wang's family. when.

"It's not that you don't know Brother Mancang's temperament. If you really don't bother them, I'm afraid they won't follow you." Meng Kejun laughed
"Brother Mancang has always said that he and Qingfeng are brothers who have kowtowed and kowtowed. He said that they are not real brothers, but they have a closer relationship than real brothers. I heard people in the village say that Mancang and Qingfeng should be relatives." Brother! Both of them have the same enthusiasm!"

Hearing the three words "brother", Dong Jingye and Huang's faces immediately darkened. This Dong Yongfeng, who is a real brother with Qingfeng, has never entered this house at all these days. He even turned his face to the other side as he passed by, not thinking of this as his home at all.

It was only after the words came out that Meng Kejun realized that he had said the wrong thing. Seeing the dignified expressions of the two old men, Meng Kejun couldn't help cursing himself in his heart.

So she quickly changed the subject, "Doctor Wang said that mother's eyes will be healed if you grab a few more medicines in a row. Tomorrow, I will take these dustpans to the market and sell them for a good price. Except for the money for oil and salt, I will give the rest to mother." Grab the medicine!"

"Let's wait a little longer!" Before Dong Jingye could speak, Huang immediately said, "Life is so tight, let's save money!" It's not that Huang doesn't want to treat his eyes, but it's just that it's too expensive to treat them. Money, it is better to save the money in case there is any emergency in the future.
