Chapter 58 Selling Pork (6)
After settling down the pigs and cows, Yu Niang was about to get tired. She poured water into her stomach, and then ate again.

Looking at it, Zhiqing's heart ached, she knew that she wouldn't have to rush on the road today, she was really exhausted.

After Yu Niang relieved the hunger in her stomach, she found that everyone was staring at her dumbfounded, and couldn't help feeling a little shy, "I'm a little hungry."

Mrs. Liu was also a little distressed, and blamed Zhiqing, "Did neither of you eat today? Zhiqing, how do you take care of Yuniang? How can you let her go hungry?"

"It was my mistake." Zhiqing admitted his mistake.

Yu Niang was a little embarrassed, took Liu Shi's hand and explained: "Mother, you blame Ah Qing, I don't want to eat, I want to go home quickly, the food at home is the best."

Liu was a little helpless, how could she not know what was going on in her heart.After all, Zhiqing is her beloved son, so she won't blame too much, so she changed the topic, "How did you get two pigs and one cow?"

When mentioning these three-headed creatures, Liu's heart was still a little hairy.This is the rhythm of hair, how can she not get hair?
"Mother, don't worry, Ah Qing and I didn't steal it or rob it. This is what our whole family worked hard for." Yuniang said with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, what do you mean, the eels you and brother took today can be exchanged for these things?" Xiao Lian asked in surprise.

Yu Niang nodded, "Yes."

This, this, this is too exciting, isn't it?

Zhiqing's father also looked shocked.

Yuniang was a little uneasy, and seemed to frighten the whole family, what should I do?
Yuniang looked at Zhiqing for help, and Zhiqing smiled, put down the bowl in his hand, and explained: "Father, mother, today I met someone who knows the goods, so I sold more silver. It will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days." Every household sells pork. You see, pork in our town is so expensive, so Yuniang and I thought about buying two pigs in Wujia Town. After slaughtering them like this, we can at least buy some money and earn some money. .”

Zhiqing's father agrees with his son's approach very much, but a cow needs three taels of silver, and a pig needs four or five taels of silver.Where did he get so much money?
"How much did you sell the dried eels this time?" Zhiqing's father asked calmly.

"18 taels of silver, plus some other things, it's about 20 taels." Zhiqing replied flatly.

The whole family was stunned!

20 taels of silver?
"By the way, mother, I have already prepared the money. I will hire a cement worker to build the house. You and father will take care of this first. These days, Yuniang and I are preparing to sell the pork. When the time comes Do some other business."

Zhiqing's methodical arrangement stunned the two elders, who didn't expect his son to start a business so soon.

When it comes to cement workers and building a house, Yuniang thinks of the most important thing.They went out for a day, but Zuo's courtyard wall that collapsed last night has not been repaired, so how will they sleep tonight?

Unexpectedly, after washing and cleaning, after returning to the house, I found that everything had been arranged properly, as if the collapsed courtyard wall had been repaired.

Yu Niang asked in surprise, "What's going on?"

Asked, Yuniang was going to investigate, but was stopped by Zhiqing, "Father covered it with a canvas, as long as it doesn't rain, everything will be fine."

The corner of Yu Niang's mouth twitched fiercely, but it's not safe after all.

However, the father-in-law has tried his best, so he can only make do with it.

Alas, the night of consummation actually caused the house to collapse, Nima is so talented.

The tiredness of the day caused Yuniang to fall into bed and go to sleep, even snoring a little.

Zhiqing, who came back from washing, looked at the tired little woman on the bed, feeling a little guilty in his heart, that he didn't take good care of her.

The next day, when Yuniang woke up, she heard noises in the yard, she couldn't help but frown, her face darkened.

That's right, after being tired, she has the urge to wake up!

After changing her clothes, Yuniang went out, and seeing the messy people in the yard, her face turned cold.

"Sister-in-law, you're awake. Look, this is..." Seeing Yuniang come out, Xiao Lian was very happy, and hurried to her side, but she was worried that she would be angry, so she didn't dare to tell the truth.

"Yu Niang, it's good if you come out, it's like this, we want to buy some pork at your house, just to make it cheaper for you. Anyway, we are also neighbors, aren't we?"

"That's right, we are from the same village, so you are too embarrassed to take our money."

"That's it."

She doesn't really care if she earns their money or not, but she clearly knows that these women in front of her are very close to Mrs. Tian, ​​and they have all bullied her mother-in-law severely.She is not a saint, and she will not have good intentions for these people.However, considering that everyone is from the same village, it would be nice to charge a lower fee.

"Yu Niang, since you bought this pig for nine coins a catty, can you just sell it to us for nine coins?" Someone asked tentatively.

The corners of Yu Niang's mouth twitched slightly, these people really dare to speak!
"I said, what's the matter with everyone? Zhiqing and the others are only doing small business, and they also bought two pigs so far for the Mid-Autumn Festival in order to let us all buy pork cheaply. Why are you so calculating? Why don't you go to Wujia Town to buy pigs and sell them to everyone at a low cost?" Mrs. Liao scolded, these people simply don't know what is good and what is wrong.I thought they were just here to order the amount of pork, but I didn't expect them to be greedy for cheap.

"I'm talking about Second Aunt, but I can't say that. Didn't Zhiqing borrow the bullock cart from Grandpa Niudan's house to buy a pig? If we can borrow it, we can naturally do the same."

Liao immediately sneered, "Hehehe, yes, of course you can do the same. Your family can't even get ten copper coins, right? Do you know how much silver a pig costs? Let me tell you, three or four Two silvers, do you have so much silver to buy pigs? If not, don’t talk about it, it will make people laugh.”

Being made such a joke by Liao Shi, the aunt immediately turned black, glared fiercely at Liao Shi, turned around and went home.

Yuniang was a little helpless, she didn't expect Liao Shi to stand up and speak for her, but what Liao Shi said made sense, and she was willing to listen.

"Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient." Yuniang smiled at Liao, then raised her hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said, "As for the sale of pork, since everyone has an opinion, I will sell these two pigs to the neighbors." The butcher in the village, let’s buy from him again.”

After finishing speaking, Yuniang turned around and went back to the house.

The noise in the yard became louder, "Yu Niang, you must not do this, you are going to kill our fellow villagers."
