Chapter 155 Some Disappointment
"Big black!"

Jiang Zhinuan stepped forward and patted the big head of the male dog, and barked, "From now on, you will be called Dahei, do you understand? If you understand, just wag your tail."

Dahei seemed to really understand, and wagged his tail cheerfully as if to please him.

Jiang Zhinuan patted the bitch lying on the ground again and called Rhubarb: "From now on, your name will be Rhubarb, you two are obedient, following me will never make you hungry, just take care of the nursing home." gone."

Dahei Dahuang yelled at Jiang Zhinuan twice in unison, as if responding to her words.

Only then did Jiang Zhinuan get up: "Just arrived home, you should get used to the environment first, after you are familiar with it, I will let you go."

After all, she got up and went downstairs. The rhubarb was pregnant with a cub and she was about to give birth. Tonight, she was going to kill two ducks and stew them in an iron pot. Firstly, it was the first time my uncle lived here, and secondly, he came here to eat. The remaining bones and meat are not wasted, they can be eaten by dogs.

The two children loved the big dog, and they kept looking at it and didn't want to leave. Di Qing was worried, so he asked his uncle to accompany him, and he went to cook with Jiang Zhinuan in his wheelchair.

Jiang Zhinuan went to the reeds and caught two wild ducks and handed them over to Di Qing. She was kneading the noodles and prepared to simmer them directly on the stewed ducks in a while, so that the stewed noodles would be much more delicious than steamed white steamed buns if they were full of soup. up.

While cooking, Jiang Zhinuan was always a little nervous. She bought these two dogs for [-] Wen. You must know what [-] Wen means to them now.

Although Jiang Zhinuan sold the wine shop for ten taels of silver, renting a shop cost seven taels of silver.

The ten taels of silver given to her by the county magistrate before, these days to build a house and then take care of the masters to eat and drink, and the rest to buy some messy things such as cotton cloth, it is almost spent.

After she bought these two dogs, she almost had less than three taels of money left in her pocket.

For ordinary families, it is absolutely no problem to live frugally for a year and a half, but right now they are basically destitute, and they need to buy a lot of things if they want to live a good life.

Even for these things, Di Qing can do it with his hands, and it basically doesn't cost much money, but just because the family invites his uncle, the salary alone will cost two hundred cash a month!

Although she has a bunch of money-making ideas now, except for the little money that was barely enough to live on by catching fish before and cashing out ten taels of silver from the wine seller, as for the others, they are just plans.

The six hundred Wen is not a small sum for her, especially for Di Qing who has always been diligent and thrifty in managing his family.

For a moment, she didn't know how to open her mouth to tell Di Qing that she spent so much money to get these two dogs back, and she was even a little worried that Di Qing would ask her to return the dogs overnight because of spending so much money. .

Something was on her mind, she didn't focus on cooking, and when she was blanching the duck meat and was about to put it into the pan, Jiang Zhinuan almost put her hands in the oil pan. If Di Qing hadn't pulled her in time, she might have hugged her at this moment. The fried pig's trotters were crying.

"Be careful! You're distracted!"

"Ah... oh..."

Jiang Zhinuan immediately recovered and waited for the stewed duck to be put into the pot before she moved a stool and sat next to Di Qing who was lighting the fire.

Di Qing took a ladle of clear spring water from the wooden bucket and handed it over: "Do you have something to tell me?"

Jiang Zhinuan's heart skipped a beat, but she still pretended to be calm, took the gourd ladle and drank all the water before nodding: "I want to tell you about buying a dog."

"I bought everything back, what's the matter? Is there anything else to say?"

"Why don't you ask me how much I paid for these two dogs?"

After she asked this question, Di Qing asked back: "How much did you pay for these two dogs?"

Jiang Zhinuan sighed, and before answering, he took out the money bag from his arms and handed it to Di Qing: "From now on, you will keep our family's money."

When she said this, Di Qing probably got a little psychologically prepared.

If these two dogs hadn't cost a lot of money, Jiang Zhinuan wouldn't have looked like this. He touched the money bag, and there were a lot of broken silver and copper plates in addition to two whole ingots of silver.

Feeling the number is still objective, but he never thought that for those two dogs, Jiang Zhinuan told him, six hundred!
Six hundred words, adding a small half is the whole one or two!

Di Qing was surprised, thinking he heard it wrong: "How much did you say?"

"Six hundred Wen."

"Six hundred words?"

Jiang Zhinuan nodded and lowered his head.

According to the hard life they lived before, six hundred Wen could last them a year or two, but now, they got two big dogs with mouths open.

Di Qing really couldn't accept it for a while.

"Actually... Actually, I don't object to you buying two dogs to watch the nursing home. You see, we live in the wilderness. In case wild animals come down from the mountains, it's good to have two dogs. I also agree with you to buy them." Gouzi, it’s just such an expensive dog, should we discuss it and buy one? Or buy two cheaper ones, smaller ones?”

There is nothing wrong with Di Qing saying that. When Jiang Zhinuan was going to buy a dog, he discussed it with him, and he agreed.

When he was in Wangcheng before, some daughters loved to keep some small pets. He knew that this dog should not be cheap, so he also prepared himself mentally, thinking that no matter how expensive it is, it is just a beast, one hundred cents?Two hundred texts?

Jiang Zhinuan spent a total of [-] Wen, which was indeed beyond the range he could accept in his heart.

It is not the first time that Jiang Zhinuan spends so much money. The money now is earned by Jiang Zhinuan. He thinks that he has no right to control how Jiang Zhinuan spends the money he earns.

But they are a family, and they will live together in the future.

If Jiang Zhinuan kept spending money like this, no matter how much he earned, it would not be enough to spend.

To be honest, at this moment, deep in his heart, he was somewhat disappointed.

Jiang Zhinuan also realized this. To be honest, she was impulsive when she bought these two dogs, but she has not regretted it until now.

If she didn't save the two dogs because of the six hundred wen, she would feel sad for the rest of her life.

But right now, she needs to explain to Di Qing, hoping that Di Qing can understand her decision.

"It's like this. Uncle Zhang took me to the dog meat market. Dog meat costs ten cents a catty. Originally, Uncle Zhang wanted me to buy two puppies back, but Da Huang was pregnant with puppies and had puppies in her belly." , the boss wants to kill it and sell it as meat, a dog is a life, and there is still life in its stomach, I really can't bear to see it being slaughtered just like that."

"So, you bought it because you took pity on it?"

Jiang Zhinuan could only nod: "I like dogs very much. Dogs are the most loyal friends of human beings. As long as you treat them well, they will treat you well and protect you for the rest of their lives."

Jiang Zhinuan felt pity for this dog with a cub in her belly, she was soft-hearted and couldn't bear to see such a cruel thing, Di Qing could understand: "But why did you buy another big black dog?"
