Farmer's Ruyi Manor

Chapter 15 Solving the Problems of Shampooing and Going to the Market (2)
Breakfast is still wild vegetables plus yesterday's chicken soup.But today it smelled of salt, now Xiao Ting was starving, so she went to wash her hands first, didn't say anything, just started to eat, not like yesterday, just ate a little bit.But today, the wild vegetables are made with chicken soup, so the taste is still very fragrant.It tasted like meat, of course Xiao Ting ate it all in one go without saying a word.

After the two mothers had finished their breakfast, they saw grandma sitting in the middle of the yard, looking at the harvest they brought back, and they were stunned.Xiao Ting reckoned that this was the first time grandma had seen so many living animals in her family in so many years.

"Mother, Xiaohua and I caught these today. Mother, I've thought about it. Our family doesn't raise chickens. Let's sell the pheasants in a few days. The money will be paid back first, as for the future, we will take it slowly. Mother, what do you think?" Although Jing Niang thought of Xiao Ting's big cake, she still owed the money after all, and felt uncomfortable, and often went to bed at night. I could think of all this before, and my heart panicked.

These nine pheasants weighed about ten kilograms, and they were all alive.Now pork fat is five renminbi a catty, pork belly is four cents a catty, and lean meat is three cents a catty.Although chicken is not as fat as pigs, pheasants are wild animals. If they are alive, they can be sold for five cents a catty. If they are all sold, they can be sold for fifty or sixty cents.There is nothing at home now, and I have to sow seeds in a few days, and I have to return some rice, oil, salt, and vegetable seeds, and I have to pay back the money.It might not be enough by then, hey...

In the end, Jingniang discussed with Mrs. Ruan, and the seven pheasants were sold, and two were kept. One was dried and eaten during the festival, and one was to see if it could hatch eggs. If not, it would be killed and given to the children. Make up your body.

When Xiao Ting heard that they were all sold, her face instantly turned dark.After all the hard work, all of them are sold, so there is no more meat to eat?I was not happy with this delicious product on the spot.

But later I heard that two of them were left behind, so I was a little happier.After thinking about it, he said again: "Grandma, mother, where do you sell the pheasant? Are you sending it directly to my cousin?"

"Yeah, you know that, let's walk by ourselves, I don't know how long it will take, the mountain road is twisted, and the road is not easy to walk, so we can only sell it on consignment. Even if we go to Huangcun to go to the market, we have to walk for two It's an hour." Xiao Ting's mind was full of black lines when she heard her grandma finished.

It took two hours to go to the market. Although Xiao Ting couldn't remember each hour and didn't know what it was called, she still knew that one hour was equal to two hours.If she walked for 4 hours in a row, she should just let her die.Didn't that tell her that your call is going to be scrapped?You need to know whether she is wearing straw sandals, whether they are sandals that are worn out and fit her feet, or they are worn out.If it goes halfway, it just happens to rot.

NND, why is this Pohuang Village so far away, let alone that town, it is really a poor country family.It's hard work for them, who has to walk such a long way to go to the market, who can bear it.

But she was not reconciled if she didn't go, she came to this strange world, she couldn't receive any information, and she didn't know what was going on outside.I have to have enough food and clothing, eat well, wear warm clothes and live well.How can it work if it has nothing to do with the outside world?So she asked again: "Will anyone go to the village on the day of the market? Do they all go on foot?" In fact, she wanted to ask if there was any means of transportation.

"The only cow and the only ox cart in the village belonged to your cousin's family. Usually, on market days, your cousin does not enter the town, and the ox cart is driven by your cousin's eldest brother to the market. Those who go will receive a large amount of money for each person going back and forth." When talking about this, Jing Niang realized that the girl wanted to go to the market, so she said: "But our family doesn't have a large amount of money, and we still owe you Aunt Wang And 25 big money from Youjiao Lang."

"Mother, can you put it on credit first, and wait until the things are sold out?"

"It's really not clear, but it may be possible, after all, we are relatives."

"Mom, then it's settled. When you go to the market in a few days, you can take me there. I want to go and see. By the way, mother, please help me boil water and wash my hair. The sun is shining now, so wash it for a while." Just do it, and, mother, how often does Huangcun go to the market?"

"Okay, you're the one who has a lot to do. Let grandma boil the water first, and mother will fetch water. When mother comes back to wash your hair, Huangcun goes to the market twice a month, once in the middle of the month and once at the end of the month."

"Grandma, please help me boil some water to wash my hair. I can't do it well. Grandma, help me." Xiao Ting is now acting like a baby to her grandma. There is no way, a guy who doesn't know how to burn fire.

"Okay, grandma's good granddaughter. You wait for grandma for a while, grandma will arrange the wild vegetables first, and put the pheasant aside first. Wait for grandma." Mrs. Ruan is cleaning up her daughter-in-law and granddaughter early in the morning The fruit of hard work, and Xiaozhuzi is now stroking the long tail of the pheasant with one hand, and the head of the pheasant with the other hand, and he doesn't know what he is talking about.

Xiaohua waited for grandma for 2 minutes, saw that grandma had cleaned up, followed grandma into the kitchen, and looked at it, and there was really not much water in the water tank right now.The water tank itself is not big, the top of the wooden barrel is a little damaged, and it is not full of water.Therefore, every time the cheap mother carries water, she always needs to carry more water several times. The last time is that both wooden buckets are filled with water, waiting for the usual use.

After 10 minutes, grandma's water was ready, and Xiao Ting had already put aside the laundry she needed to do yesterday. After washing her hair for a while, she asked grandma if she had any laundry to do.

Xiao Ting took the wooden basin filled with water for washing her body yesterday, mixed some hot water with cold water, grabbed a few Sapinberry fruits, and soaked them in the basin for about 2 minutes. Xiao Ting reached in and rubbed them. Sapinberry fruit, after rubbing out the foam, you can still smell some faint fragrance before you stop.

There is no way, Xiao Ting can't get used to that ashes.And I heard that Sapinberry fruit can be used to wash hair, bathe and wash clothes. When I was a child, my grandma said that it can be used to make soap.Anyway, try it first.

So I didn't wait for the cheap mother to come back to wash her hair, mainly because yesterday, without any hair washing products, that Hui Xiaoting didn't know how to use it, and didn't dare to wash it.

After washing her hair comfortably, Xiao Ting felt that her whole head was light at this moment, and she was refreshed. She asked her grandma for a cloth to wipe her hair, and sat on the small twig in the middle of the yard by herself. Rub your hair into the sun.At this time, she was a little drowsy, and suddenly saw the cheap mother approaching from a distance, and wanted to step forward to help, but she was young and her strength was limited, so she could only do nothing.

Looking back at Xiaozhuzi, he was still chatting with the pheasant.Grandma has already come out now, reaching out to touch the cloth in Xiao Ting's hand, and helping her to wipe her hair carefully, Xiao Ting is lazy now.
