Chapter 136 Zhu Danian Sends Pheasant

Ji Wenhe smiled and took over the conversation: "She won't. Before meeting, let Yue Niang find out clearly that Xiaoya is a good girl and can find a good family."

"I don't ask her to marry into a wealthy family, as long as the two of us can live a stable life. I don't ask for anything more."

If she marries into a wealthy family, given her personality, it would be fine if she can get along well with her mother-in-law, but if not, she will be bullied to death.

"Okay, mom, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go buy some meat. We've run out of oil at home."

Lan Qiuhua turned to look at Ji Wenhe: "Wenhe, Rongshan asked us to go to the shop where he often buys meat."

"He told the boss that he has a wife at home. If we tell him his name, the boss will sell it to us at the purchase price."

"Okay, let's look for it. Where is it?"

She has a poor sense of direction and can't tell east from west, south from north.

It can only be distinguished when the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

When leaving the village, Shen Rongshan told them the location of Xiong Yaoguang's pork stall.

Shen Suya pointed to a stall on the left side in front of her: "Mom, sister-in-law, look and see if it's that person. He looks a lot like what Brother Rongshan said."

Ji Wenhe looked in the direction of her finger and said, "It should be him. Let's go over and ask him."

The two nodded and followed her.

When he came to the pork stall, he politely asked, "Hello, are you Xiong Yaoguang?"

"Yes, it's me. Are you looking for me?"

"Yes, I, I am Shen Rongshan's wife."

She was a little nervous.

"Your name is Ji... Ji... what? I don't have a very good memory."

"Ji Wenhe."

"Yes, yes, yes, I remember now. I heard him mention it. Why didn't he come?"

"He's gone to get some stock."

Xiong Yaoguang looked at the meat on the chopping board and said, "You can buy it back and eat it yourself. You should come to my house to buy the meat."

"I plan to buy some to eat myself. You know, farmers rarely eat meat. I guess the next time I buy meat, I guess it will be during the busy farming season."

"Well, I know. Let's see what kind of meat you want. I'll sell it to you at the purchase price."

When Shen Rongshan first came to see him, he had already told him that he would not come often to buy pork and sell it, and he was also aware of the farmers' situation.

Ji Wenhe pointed to a piece of meat without any fat: "Half a pound of lean meat, half a pound of fat, and then cut another half a pound of fat. This is for others."

Actually it’s Aunt Lan’s house next door.

"Got it."

The scale used on the stall is a balance scale, which is more convenient than a wooden pole scale.

The piece of meat was thrown up, just right, not more or less.

"Look good, young lady."

Lan Qiuhua praised: "We believe in you. You have practiced this skill, and you can strike accurately with one blow."

Xiong Yaoguang smiled cheerfully: "Really? If I wasn't afraid that others wouldn't believe me, I wouldn't want to bring a scale with me."

Every move they make at the meat stall here is accurate.

"sharp."

Ji Wenhe counted the coins and handed them to him.

"Boss, we're leaving first. Thank you very much. Come again next time."

"Okay, walk slowly."

He replied and continued to serve other customers.

"Aunt Lan, do you want to buy anything?"

"No, I sent some food and clothes to her father and brother, and gave the silk bracelet and purse to Jinxiufang. There is nothing else to do."

Lan Qiuhua turned and looked at Shen Suya.

"Did you bring me the purse?"

"Yes, it's in the basket." She lifted the basket in her hand. "It's the same style you embroidered before."

"Then why don't we go to the rice shop to find Brother Shen? I don't have anything to buy."

They both nodded.

"to make."

When I went to Zhou's Rice Shop, I saw from afar that their goods had been loaded and Shen Rongshan was about to drive his donkey cart to Jinxiufang to find them.

"Brother Shen, we are here." She looked at him with a smile.

"Why aren't you waiting for me at Jinxiufang? Have you bought the meat?"

"I bought it. The goods are all packed."

"Well, now that we're done, let's go back to the village."

"Okay." Shen Suya jumped happily and sat on it.

Ji Wenhe sat next to him, and only turned his head to look at the goods in the car after they left the town.

They bought the same goods as last time, and they were running farther and farther away from the village.

Now Baiyun Mountain is also within their sales range, and there are many villages around it with a lot of people.

"It will take more than half a month to sell them after this trip." Lan Qiuhua asked, "Wen He, you're not selling the bracelet anymore?"

“I didn’t take them to the village to sell. Yuanshan and Wenshan took them out some time ago, and I didn’t sell any of them.”

Once the shelves are finished, they will be hung in the shop for sale. Once they are sold out, we will stop making them.

"If you still want to sell bracelets, wait until two years later when life gets better and you have extra money, more people will buy them."

"We'll see when the time comes." Currently he is focusing on the puppet business.

"Oh, Aunt Lan." Ji Wenhe looked at the people behind him, "I'll cut other styles for you when we get back. I'll make twenty of each."

"Okay, go back and cut the pattern for me."

She gave Yang Yun five styles in total, and asked him to make all five styles and bring them to the shop at the end of the month.

After their new styles come out, they will be put on the shelves for sale.

The two had discussed it before and decided that there was no need to wait for half a month. Five days later, Yang Yun instructed the shop assistant to take the dolls she had made to the door for sale.

It will be copied by others anyway, so it is better to let her, the partner, make money.

The car was full of goods and no one was carrying anyone along the way.

When I saw wild vegetables on the roadside, I got out of the car to dig them.

When I arrived at the entrance of the village, I met Zhu Danian.

"Master."

"Uncle Da Nian."

"Hey, I got up early and went to the mountains. Dahei and Erhei caught two pheasants and two rabbits. I sent a pheasant to your family."

"It's under the branches in the yard. I've blocked it. Go back and look carefully."

He gave a wild rabbit to the head of the village, and kept the rest for himself and his two big black dogs.

Shen Rongshan jumped out of the car and held the donkey rope: "Master, let's eat at my house tonight."

Zhu Danian smiled and waved his hands: "No, no, Dahei and Erhei are still waiting for me at home, you guys go back quickly, I'm leaving."

Without giving them a chance to stay, he turned around and left.

"Your master is really good to you. Whenever he kills prey, he always thinks of giving it to your family."

Lan Qiuhua walked to Shen Rongshan and walked slowly towards the village.

"Rongshan, your master is a grown man, but he has never married or had children. He is counting on you to take care of him in his old age."

"Yes, I know. Master taught me how to hunt, and he also took care of my brothers and Aunt Lan when I was away from home. I remember everything."

He will repay their kindness.

Shen Suya and Ji Wenhe walked behind with their arms around each other.

Wang Erfeng in the vegetable garden saw them coming back and greeted them with a smile: "Oh, you are out to buy more goods."

Lan Qiuhua took over the conversation: "If there is no stock, of course we have to go and buy more. Erfeng, you go to the fields every day to see if there is anything good to see."

"The rice seedlings are growing well this year. If I don't come and take a look every day, I'll feel uncomfortable. I can't wait to plant the rice seedlings tomorrow."
