Chapter 289
Hearing other people's compliments on her daughter, Wei immediately laughed, which was happier than complimenting herself.

"That's right, children don't know how to calculate blindly." Wei Shi also thinks that his daughter is great, but he still has to be humble to the outside world.

"It's nonsense, sister-in-law is modest." The shopkeeper of the butcher shop said enviously, his family is full of brats and has no daughters, so he is really envious of those who have daughters.

Wei Shi smiled and said nothing, I took out two taels of silver and handed it to the shopkeeper of the butcher shop.

The shopkeeper happily accepted it and found out ten coins, after thinking about it, he took out the pig under the case.

"Sister-in-law, I'm giving you this pig offal too, please visit again next time!" The shopkeeper of the butcher shop, who is very good at business, looked at the two women in front of him with a smile on his face.

The pig offals donated are not easy to sell and the price is cheap. The smell is too strong, and it is too laborious to process. Even the poor who cannot afford meat rarely buy it, so it is better to give it away as a favor.

When Xiao Qi saw the large intestine, he immediately thought of the fat sausages, dry flat large intestines and other delicious delicacies that he had eaten before, and hurriedly pulled his mother's cuffs to let her accept it.

Wei Shi cast a funny look at his daughter, even if her daughter doesn't pull her, she will accept it, this is meat after all, although it is troublesome to handle and cost a lot of material, but the fried large intestine is still very fragrant after processing , the meat is also very chewy.

Wei Shi thanked the shopkeeper immediately, it is a favor from others to give you away, and it should not be taken for granted, proper etiquette must be done.

Then I troubled the shopkeeper to carry half a piece of meat and two pieces of ribs to the bullock cart not far away.

The rest of the ladies followed the shopkeeper and sent them to the bullock cart together. After thanking the shopkeeper again, Mrs. Wang drove the bullock cart into motion.

In this way, the bullock cart walked slowly along the streets of the town. During the period, I saw Wei Shi, who was selling tofu and bean sprouts, bought a plate of tofu, and the bean sprouts also bought half a box.

"I don't know if there are fish sellers?" Sitting on the bullock cart, Wei Shi muttered in Xiaoqi's ear.

Although the price of fish is considerable, it has a good meaning, what fish jumps over the dragon's gate, what is more than every year... If there are fish on this happy day, it will be more fulfilling, and Xiao Qi also thinks what mother said is right.

So he comforted his mother and said: "Mother, don't worry, this street is still far away, maybe there is a fish seller in front, let's walk again."

Mrs. Wei nodded. Except for a few fish sellers in the town before the end of the year in winter, I usually don't see them twice a year. I hope I can meet them today with my daughter's blessing.

I haven’t come across a fish seller while I was walking, but I met a mutton seller. Lamb is not easy to touch. It is estimated that there are only a few days in the town to sell mutton. After all, mutton is too oily and expensive. However, most ordinary people still want to eat some oily pork with a little money.

In fact, there are not too many people who buy it, which is the main reason why mutton sellers do not often come to the market. Usually, they sell directly to restaurants and restaurants.

Seeing the mutton, Weishi immediately became happy. Mutton rarely has a special taste. Their family likes to eat mutton very much. This meat is very warm and comfortable in the stomach.

Every time Wei Shi came to town, as long as he met someone, he would never be empty-handed, and would definitely cut some mutton and go home to improve the food.

When the ox cart stopped, the two mothers and daughters stood happily in front of the mutton stall and wrapped up the whole mutton at once, which naturally made the stall owner overjoyed.

The whole sheep weighed 62 catties, and each catty cost [-] Wen.

With the help of the stall owner, more mutton was added to the cart, but Wei Shi did not leave in a hurry, but chatted with the stall owner again.

She thought that tomorrow she would have a big banquet at home, and this mutton was also a good dish, but she didn't know how many sheep the stall owner had, and whether they could be chewed at home.

"Brother, I don't know how many sheep you have at home."

Mother's question made Xiaoqi raise her eyebrows. Mother is starting to prepare the meat dishes for the day after tomorrow, but looking at the mutton, Xiaoqi thinks it is very good. At that time, there will be a pot of mutton soup on each table, which is fresh and delicious It is indeed a very good dish to warm up the body. Besides, it is not unaffordable for the family.

Seeing the stall owner in front of him being stunned by his mother's question, he probably didn't quite understand what the woman in front of him meant.Seeing here, Xiaoqi smiled, and the mother's words were too fast.

"What's the matter? What's the meaning of what the big sister said?" The stall owner asked in confusion.

With a decent smile on Wei's face, he said: "Brother stall owner is like this. My family will have a banquet in the past two days. I think your mutton is pretty good. I don't know if your mutton is still for sale?"

The stall owner understood everything now. It turned out that he wanted to order more of his mutton, and sold it. How could he not sell it?
Seeing that winter is coming, there are still a lot of sheep left in the family. If most of them can't be sold before winter, he will worry about preparing fodder in winter.

The stall owner hurriedly said: "I still have dozens of them at home! I don't know how many sisters need at home."

Wei Shi didn't answer immediately, but calculated in his heart that a sheep would weigh seventy to eighty catties after slaughter, and this was still with the bones attached.

Boneless is six to seventy catties, one catty of mutton for one table, one sheep can be used for sixty or seventy tables, two tables a day, no matter what, you need three or four sheep, but the money for buying sheep is also the same. Very impressive.

Fortunately, a few months ago, her daughter and her husband brought back a large sum of money, otherwise she might not be willing to buy mutton.

After figuring out the approximate value, Wei said: "It will take about seven. I don't know if the stall owner can deliver the goods home."

When the stall owner heard that he really wanted it, he immediately cracked his mouth and smiled brightly, "It can be delivered home, as long as the big sister tells me the time and address, I will definitely deliver it on time."

Wei Shi also laughed when he heard it, "Brother, the stall owner, please send the sheep to Lu Zhongshou's house in Qingyun Village. Can you ask for three live sheep and four slaughtered ones? It's best to deliver them before tomorrow evening."

"Okay, big sister, don't worry, it will be delivered on time." The stall owner was very happy, and sold seven sheep at once. It is rare to meet such a big customer. The next family's house, including the sheep shed, can be properly repaired before winter comes.

The two decided on the location and time, Wei Shi said goodbye to the stall owner, and took Xiaoqi to the bullock cart.

When passing by a wine shop, Wei asked for a few large jugs of good wine, saying that the wine jug Xiaoqi looked no different from a jug, and it was estimated that this jug could hold dozens of catties.

Xiaoqi reckoned that these large jars were enough for the banquet. With these large jars of wine, the bullock cart became much more crowded in an instant.

Walking and shopping along the way, I bought a lot of pastries and tea on the ox cart, and bought some vegetables that I didn't grow at home.

Seeing that the street was coming to an end, and there was no fish seller, even Xiao Qi felt hopeless.

Unexpectedly, she suddenly heard the happy shout of the sister-in-law, "Mother, do you see a fish seller in front of you? There are several big pots, and there seems to be the sound of fish splashing in the water."

Hearing that Xiaoqi couldn't sit still on the bullock cart, she stood directly on the bullock cart and looked in the direction her sister-in-law said.

Sure enough, behind several figures, I saw several large basins, and there was indeed the sound of splashing water in them.

Xiao Qi has already given up in his heart, thinking that today's fish will not be available, but he did not expect that this fish seller would actually appear. Does this count as another village?
Following the yelling of the eldest daughter-in-law, Wei Shi also saw the stall owner that the daughter-in-law said, and with just one glance at Wei Shi, he was sure that it was a stall selling fish.
