Chapter 65 Buying Pork

Mrs. Shao has been busy making clothes at home.These three little grandchildren are going to school soon, so they don't have to wear new clothes.

Originally, it was possible to catch up, but my brother was delayed for two days, so I was a little nervous.She was busy all afternoon and didn't dare to move her nest. She didn't stop until dusk, when the light was dim.

Why haven't Gu Li and the three little ones returned yet?After hammering her sore shoulder, she walked out of the courtyard and looked towards the road.

The afterglow of the setting sun stretched the shadows of one big and three small ones very long. Several people were walking with things in their hands, talking and laughing.

"Grandma, we're back!" Sanmao waved his hands excitedly, and rushed directly to Mrs. Shao.

"Mom, why are you standing at the door?"

Gu Li has already strode over.

"I forgot the time when I made clothes. Who knows, you came back as soon as I came out to watch. Are you hungry? I'm going to cook."

Mrs. Shao turned around and was about to go in, but was pulled back by Gu Li, "We ate wontons in the town, and we were full. You have been busy all afternoon, go play with Da Mao and the others for a while and rest, I will Go get you something to eat."

"No~"

Mrs. Shao just wanted to refuse, but Gu Li ignored her and went straight to the kitchen.

The three little ones also obediently dragged her into the yard, and began chattering about what happened in the town today.

Gu Li knew this old lady too well. If he knew that they were already full, he would definitely not cook for himself.Therefore, she volunteered to do it.

How could she, Gu Li's mother, be hungry?
It didn't take long to cook the wontons. Gu Li brought a large bowl full to Mrs. Shao. She also carefully sprinkled some chopped green onions and dripped a few drops of sesame oil.

"You child, you bought so many things for the children, why do you pay this old woman back to me? Just cook something at home."

"Look at what you said, it's because I'm their mother that I spend money on my children, and I should spend money on you. You're my mother, and it's an old saying to be filial to your parents."

Old Mrs. Shao smiled gratifiedly, and murmured, "The second child married a good wife, and I'm well worth it."

This is the best little wonton she has ever eaten in her life.

These days seem to be on the go all the time, now that the three little ones are about to go to school, Gu Li decided to spend a good day at home with them.Going to school is not as convenient as being at home. Only when the school is closed for a holiday can we go home and meet each other.

Both she and Mrs. Shao might not be used to it.

Early in the morning, Shao Guang's daughter-in-law next door, like a loudspeaker, informed her that someone in the village had killed a domestic pig and was going to sell it in the town.

Gu Li hurriedly pocketed the money, planning to buy some.I was too busy to buy those things yesterday, but I didn't go to the side that sells meat and vegetables.Right now there is a sale in the village, but we must seize this opportunity.

It was a coincidence to wait until we arrived to have a look.It turned out to be a pig killed by Caihua's family.

Gu Li was a little hesitant, fearing that there would be some unpleasantness with Caihua.Let's just say it, when Shao Guang's daughter-in-law told herself the news, she smiled strangely.Dare to love, she already knew.

But Caihua saw her in the crowd of onlookers.There's no way, this Gu Li has a smooth body and is tall, so it's hard not to notice it.

"Gu Li, are you also here to buy meat?"

Caihua grabs her and walks forward.

It wasn't until he came to the center of the crowd that Gu Li saw a strong man cutting pork.

Presumably this is Ayaka's man.

"Gen'er, cut it into pieces for Gu Li first."

"Hey, right away."

The man didn't hesitate at all when he heard that, he cut out a large piece of tenderloin, quickly tied it with rattan rope and handed it to Caihua, and then continued to work.

Caihua handed it to her, and said sincerely:
"Gu Li, you saved my family, Pingping, and I've been thinking about how to thank you. I just killed a pig today, and I thought I'd give you some to try later, but I didn't expect you to come in person, so I won't leave It’s time for this trip. I’m going to rush to the town later, it’s not easy to sell if it’s late.”

Those who can feed a pig in rural areas are definitely hoping to exchange some money.Those who kill themselves like this are just thinking about making more money. After all, it is cheaper to sell them to butchers to kill pigs.

However, very few people in the village are able to buy a lot. They all buy half a catty of tooth-beating sacrifices, so they mainly rely on pulling them to the town to sell.

And the piece of meat that Caihua was holding weighed at least three to four catties.

Gu Li didn't reach out to take it, but said calmly:
"I said it last time, but it's just a matter of effort, you don't have to take it to heart."

"Hey, I'm afraid that the old Shao family knew that Caihua's family slaughtered pigs, so they came here to ask for it?" A jealous woman in the crowd said sourly.

Immediately, gossip eyes all stared at Gu Li.

"What's the matter, are you envious? Then when my family fell into the water, you didn't see you helping me? Don't say that Gu Li didn't ask for it, even if he asked for it, I should give it! A few catties of pork are nothing, Can it be more expensive than my ordinary life gold? Come, Gu Li, take it!"

Caihua has always been sharp-tongued, and directly stuffed the rattan rope tied with pork into Gu Li's hands.

Gu Li bought pork in the town, so he knew the price.A catty of pork is fifteen yuan, and Caihua's here is almost fifty or sixty yuan.This is not a small sum in the village, and she doesn't want to take advantage of it.

"Help me weigh the weight here!"

Gu Li said something lightly.Caihua was stunned for a moment, and went to weigh it anyway, "It's three catties!"

Sure enough, it was about the same as what he estimated. Gu Li took out 57 Wen and handed it to Caihua, "[-] Wen is meat money, and there are [-] Wen, please help me put some pig bones!"

She wanted to stew some bone soup for the three little ones to drink.The ancient pig bones and the water are not worth much, and they were all delivered with pork. Gu Li had already paid an extra three pennies, so it was all reasonable.

"I said, this is to thank you for saving my family, Pingping, you take the money." She Caihua is a person who speaks her mind, no matter how poor she is, how can she charge for the pork she gave away? "

It's just that she didn't expect that Gu Li was also a man of his word. She handed the pork in front of her and said firmly, "If you don't take money, then I don't want this pork."

Caihua knew that she wasn't resigning on purpose, so she was in trouble all of a sudden.

At this time Caihua's man Gen'er also heard the movement and came over. He stretched out his hand to put away the money for Caihua, and said with a smile: "Since the old Shao's family insists on giving the money, we will not be polite. Anyway, selling it to others is the same. It’s about money. You want pork bones for the extra three coins, right? Wait a minute, I’ll get them for you.”

Gen'er put the money in his pocket directly, and then went to help Gu Li pack the pork bones.However, not only a few pig bones, almost all the pig bones were packed, including pig water, pig skin, and even a pig's foot, a half-snakeskin bag full.

Tie it up and hand it to her with a smile, "These are worthless, so don't say more about the old Shao's. Otherwise, our mother-in-law will have trouble sleeping and eating again."

Speaking of this, Gu Li didn't hesitate, and reached out to take it, "Then thank you for your kindness. Take Pingping to play with our baby when you have time."

Gu Li carried the snakeskin bag in one hand and twisted the pork in the other, walking towards home.

The people behind got excited, "Gen'er, send me some more pork bones too! It's okay to go into the water!"

"It's gone, it's all sent to Lao Shao's family."

"Why are you doing this? It's unfair!"

"What's the fuss, I just don't have to give away anything. If you don't want to buy my family's, you can take a car to the town to buy it. Gu Li is my family's ordinary life-saving benefactor, so I love to give it to you. You are not, what do you want!"

Caihua resumed her usual loud voice, and those who made noise had no choice but to obediently report: "Gen'er, give me half a catty."

"I want a catty."

Going to the town will cost you a few extra pennies for the car ride, which is not worth it, and besides, there is still no delivery for the meat sold in the town.Or honestly buy her home!
Cai Hua squeezed her way to the man, "I really have you, so it's repaying the favor anyway."
