The Sweet Little Fulang

After paying the money, Lu Gu and Shen Xuanqing found a space to push the scooter.

He was shouting all the way, Lu Gu opened the bamboo tube and took a few sips of water, then handed it to Shen Xuanqing. I brought two benches today. I can sit down and rest when I feel tired after standing for a while.

The most lively period of the early episode has passed, and there are relatively few people trading and buying at this time.

It's already half-morning, but fortunately, the sun is not bright today, so it won't make people dizzy. The small traders and hawkers who came early in the morning are still holding on, waiting for buyers to patronize.

"Teal eggs, fresh teal eggs."

"Wild buds, just picked from the mountain."

"Auntie, come and see, my eggs are cheap."

As soon as someone came to buy with a basket, many people shouted and tried to sell the things.

There are a lot of people selling eggs and ducks. When they were hawking along the road, they came across a woman selling eggs with a basket on their backs.

And there are not many people like Lu Gu who sell eggs with several bamboo baskets. When he saw a woman coming from there, he also shouted a few times.

"So much." Seeing him in a bamboo basket, the old woman couldn't help feeling novel. She stopped to join in the fun, looked into the bamboo basket, and said, "This egg is smaller than other people's."

"Yes, auntie, my chickens and ducks are smaller, and my eggs are smaller, but they taste the same, no difference." Lu Gu said seriously, and took out one and held it in his hand for the mother-in-law to see.

Shen Xuanqing wanted to help her husband, but couldn't stand up when selling things?

He was taller than an ordinary man, and he didn't feel anything when he sat behind the scooter. Suddenly, he got up, good guy, and gave the short and thin old lady a jump, and subconsciously took a half step back.

Seeing the frightened look on the customer's face, afraid that he would run away and fail to do business, Lu Gu hurriedly said to her, "Don't be afraid, auntie, this is my husband."

Shen Xuanqing felt helpless, but the other party was an old and frail old woman, so she smiled apologetically, "I got up in a hurry, auntie, don't panic."

The husband in front of him was gentle and weak, and the man didn't collide with his words at all. He told the old woman to calm down, leaned in front of him and looked at the eggs and said, "Oh, your husband is really tall."

Hearing this, Shen Xuanqing smiled and said, "Don't look down on this egg, it won't hurt my aunt if it is weighed by the pound. Besides, small has small advantages, it is small and delicate, and it weighs a few more per pound than the big one. If there are children in the family who eat eggs, it is the same for a little one, and you can eat a few more.”

"Yes, if my aunt wants to buy it, the price is not expensive." Lu Gu nodded in agreement.

Shen Xuanqing's words made the old woman stunned for a while, and she seemed to realize that the family life was not bad or bad, and they could afford eggs and duck eggs, but they had to plan their lives carefully. These eggs were small, but they were full of chicken, yellow and white. Big eggs are no different. The old man in the family has many rules. He has to eat one chicken every day, and the cost is the same.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was the truth, and she said, "That's it, give me a pound."

Lu Gu took the eggs from the bamboo basket with a smile, Shen Xuanqing took the scale on the trolley, and the old woman also looked into the bamboo basket and said, "Don't take this one with chicken **** for me, take that one, it's clean."

It's not too troublesome to do business, besides, this old woman is a good talker, so she picked up some clean ones to weigh her up without arbitrarily lowering the price.

Thirteen copper coins were in his hand, and Lu Gu put a pad in his hand, which was quite heavy, and then put it into the money bag. Hearing the sound of the copper coins colliding and clattering, his smile became even bigger.

If it weren't for the warm spring, chickens and ducks would lay eggs, otherwise a pound of eggs would cost fifteen or sixteen cents. Fortunately, even if there is too much of this thing, it will not be too cheap. He said 14 yuan, and the old woman said 13, so he would not lose money, so he sold it.

Walking around, the eggs were easy to break, and they didn't move at the market until the afternoon.

During lunch at noon, Lu Gu ate Yangchun noodles that he hadn't tasted for a long time. After eating Shen Xuanqing, he returned the bowl to settle the money, and also took two eggs from the bamboo basket. He was puzzled, and Shen Xuanqing said that one bowl of noodles was not enough. , In the past, the stalls mainly sold two poached eggs, and it was enough to give an extra pen or two.

When he came out to sell things, he could still eat his own eggs. Lu Gu ate it deliciously, and he was very happy with his brows and eyes.

Business was not very good today, and the goods on the trolley were not sold out. Looking at the afternoon, it was difficult to catch up with eggs and duck eggs at night, so Shen Xuanqing took Lu Gu to Zhao Butcher's house, and took the remaining one. One pheasant and three hares were sold to Butcher Zhao at a low price, so that he would not have to take them home.

The little tiger could already run away, and Lu Gu and the butcher Zhao's wife Ji Shi played with the doll for a while.

Chubby children are the most lovable, Ji Shi told Lu Gu with a smile, the little tiger is sinking, and sometimes she struggles to hold it.

Lu Gu couldn't, so he hugged Little Huzi, his eyes widened slightly, and his heart was really heavy.

Ji Shi smiled beside him.

Little Huzi has fleshy hands and arms, just like a little dunzi. There are many little boys who talk late. He is just reaching out to touch Lu Gu's face at this moment, and his mouth is vague words that only Ji Shi can understand.

"This is a little mama, not a mother." She emphasized with Xiaohuzi next to her.

But Xiaohuzi was so young, and when he saw the woman and husband, he only knew how to call his mother, and he didn't care so much.

It didn't take long for Butcher Zhao here, and the two of them had to rush back to eat, so they pushed on the trolley and left.

"Little Huzi is really heavy." Lu Gu said the words after he came out. The fat baby doll is very cute, and he smiled lightly.

Shen Xuanqing's Adam's apple moved slightly and said with a smile, "Then let's have one too."

The last time they talked about the child, Lu Gu was ignorant and dazed. Later, he thought to himself that it was only natural for the husband to give birth to a child for the husband, let alone to Shen Xuanqing.

Due to the crowd of people on the street, he whispered a serious "um", and then if he wanted to have a child, he had to...

His ears and cheeks were red, and he lowered his eyes and did not dare to look around.

Shen Xuanqing did not expect that he would agree so clearly and solemnly, and even his steps slowed down for a while.

It's hard to do anything else when you go out. The two walked forward, no one said a word, but there were smiles on their faces.

When passing the cream shop, Shen Xuanqing remembered that the cream used at night was running out, but he couldn't tell Lu Guming, so he said, "I think the hand cream will be used quickly, so I might as well buy some more. Go in and buy."

Before Lu Gu said a word, he entered the shop, and there was a bit of uncomfortable eagerness in his pretentious calmness, for fear that Lu Gu would not let him come in to buy.

However, the little husband who was waiting obediently at the door didn't understand the twists and turns in his heart at all.

When Shen Xuanqing came out, he bought two boxes of hand ointment on the bright side. As for the two bottles of expensive ointment in his arms, only he himself knew for the time being.

—

The road was bumpy and two eggs were broken. Lu Gu felt a little distressed. He knocked the rest into a bowl and made egg drop soup.

I've been in town for a long time to sell eggs, so I put the land-seeking on the next day.

When I woke up in the morning, the breeze was blowing, and it was neither cold nor hot. Ji Qiuyue was fine at home, so when she came out, it was time to relax. She even pulled Lu Gu, and the four of them wandered around Qingxi Village to look at each other.

Compared with the people in the town, Qingxi Village is not very big, with a total of 40 or 50 households, which is not small in the countryside.

It is not easy for the villagers to ask for stuttering. The land that can be used for farming and vegetables has been reclaimed. In addition, the court also valued the land. The land that should be measured is not ambiguous at all. Once the land deed and house deed are established, then you can count on your own.

A few years ago, the old houses in the village were poor, and most of the old houses in the village were thatched huts, and most of the people moved out. No one lives there, and there are land deeds.

After looking around the village, they came to the southeast side of the village again. The Qingxi River flows around the village, and the old site is closer to the river.

"It's not a problem with rocks and mud pits, it's just how big the land you want." Shen Yaoqing asked, kicking the stones on the ground.

Shen Xuanqing looked at this barren open space, which was full of rocks and mud, and the grass hut had to be dismantled. Their village had reclaimed enough fields elsewhere, and no one cared about the land here.

The wind blew across the river, bringing the smell of slightly damp water. He thought about it and said, "It's better to stay here, it's just a matter of time and effort, but the land can be cheaper."

"Look at this open space, there are about five acres, it should be enough." Shen Xuanqing finished in a hurry.

"Five acres?" Shen Yaoqing was surprised, he thought it was just a plot of land to raise rabbits.

Shen Xuanqing smiled and said, "How much is five acres, eldest brother, have you forgotten? How much land does the Gong family's Zhuangzi occupy in Fucheng? There are even forests, peach and pear trees are planted with a lot of fruit, and they go to Fucheng every year. The livestock and grains that go there are also mountain goods, and there are no twenty or thirty trucks that can pull them all out."

"Rabbits need to be raised, but you can build a house once. It's better to have a larger site. Chickens and ducks are allowed to be raised together. We don't have anything else to do. Apart from farming, we can only collect firewood or do cool labor. , all you earn is a living."

"If you want me to say, it's better to raise more things, whether to sell them in bulk, or to find restaurants and pubs for supplies, it's better than being a coolie."

These words made Shen Yaoqing more and more excited. Who said that this is not the case. It is really better to raise chickens, ducks and rabbits than to be a good businessman.

After returning home, I told Wei Lanxiang that the brothers brought drinks and a rabbit and went to Lin Zhongcai.

Lu Gu and Shen Yan chopped chicken and grass in the backyard, and told her that the five acres of land were very big, and they would raise rabbits, chickens and ducks there in the future.

The dog walked around behind the two of them, rubbed Lu Gu's back and barked twice. Seeing that Lu Gu was busy cutting grass and ignored him, he stood in front of the rabbit's den and looked inside curiously. Because he had been beaten, he knew he couldn't rush. The rabbit at home is barking, and it's pretty good today.

After two days of buying the land, they all belonged to the same village. Shen Xuanqing is a hunter and has martial arts skills, so he can be considered a human being. He basically has no quarrel with the villagers. The empty space with no owner, no matter whether it is measured or established, has been passed by Lin Zhongcai, and even he and Shen Xuanqing went to the government office.

Barren vacant land was the cheapest, and Lin Zhongcai was involved in dealing with it. Finally, the land deed was in his hand. In the past two days, he spent a total of six or three dollars before and after running, which is much cheaper than farming.

Ji Qiuyue is pregnant, and food and clothing are all the burden of Shen Yaoqing. Compared with hunters, farming is not so profitable. Shen Xuanqing did not let him pay for the land purchase. In this way, it is clearer who owns the land deed. Tongue speaks more.

The two brothers have always been close and friendly, and there is no disagreement. One contributes money and the other contributes.
