Chapter 12 Gifts
Nearly two taels of silver made Li Dashan very happy.

Although Li Dashan often goes to Jixiang Restaurant to sell game animals, they are basically small game animals such as pheasants, quails, etc., and the price of most of them is three to four hundred yuan.

The money sold for one sheep this time was almost what they had saved in a year!
Thinking that his daughter's sixth birthday would be in a few days, Li Dashan was going to buy some gifts for her, and by the way, there was also a wife!
A daughter's birthday is not a day of hardship for a daughter-in-law, especially when she was giving birth to a daughter, one and two were almost killed. Thinking about Li Dashan makes me cringe.

Now that he has paid for it, he just wants to pamper the two of them.

With the money in his pocket, Li Dashan left the restaurant and cut two kilograms of pork first, and then took five kilograms of suet. The pork was 20 Wen per kilogram, and the Suet was 8 Wen per kilogram, a total of 80 Wen.

The boss also gave him half a pig's lung, which was not edible and could not be sold, but Li Dashan didn't mind.

Then I went to the grocery store and bought some salt, sauce and spices.

I only bought two kilograms of cornmeal and three kilograms of fine white flour at the grain store.

In the south, people are accustomed to eating rice and sometimes pasta, and white flour is precious in the south.

This pile of things cost another 100 cents, and the store gave me 4 cents.

Before going home, Li Dashan went to the jewelry store and picked out a peachwood hairpin for his wife for 10 cents, two red-headed ropes for 2 cents, and a peach wood bracelet for 6 cents.

I passed by a steamed bun shop and bought six more large meat buns for 12 Wen.

This whole day cost 210 yuan.

When Li Dashan returned home, Li Yuan was preparing to make lunch.

"Steam less rice. I bought six big meat buns!" Li Dashan said cheerfully.

Li Xiao saw that his father was sweating, so he quickly scooped up water and took a face towel, so that he could wash his face after his father put down the things.

Li Dashan was so moved that he pointed at his eldest son, his second son who looked like wood, and his third son who was just flipping through the big meat buns and said, "You brats, none of them can compare to my daughter!"

The boys didn't mind and helped pack everything away.

Because the meat was fresh, I cut half a catty at noon and made some sliced ​​cabbage, one shredded pepper pork, and one braised green beans.Each person had a big meat bun, and everyone except Li Xiao added food!

After lunch, Li Dashan handed the remaining money to Li Yuan in front of everyone.

He took out the peach wood hairpin from his arms and gave it to her.

Li Yuan refused to take it because he thought it was a waste of money, but Li Xiao made a fuss and asked his father to put it on his mother, and then praised it for looking good.

This made both Li Dashan and Li Yuan a little embarrassed.

In order to divert attention, Li Dashan also took out the headband and peach wood bracelets given to his daughter.

"It's Xiaoxiao's sixth birthday in a few days. This is your birthday gift!"

As if he was afraid that his sons would be unhappy, Li Dashan turned to say: "This time the ewe was sold for nearly two taels of silver. Today, there are more than 700 wen left. Counting what I have saved in the past few years, it is almost 28 taels. "

He took a sip of water and said, "Your mother and I have agreed that after the New Year, the eldest and the second will go to school together! This year for the New Year, everyone will get a new suit of clothes!"

When he heard about going to school, Li Xiao clearly felt that his eldest brother was more excited than his second brother.

How should I put it, the second brother was not unhappy, but he didn't have too many emotional changes.

In Li Xiao's memory, the eldest brother always smiled at the corners of his eyes when he followed his mother to read, and he would also find time to practice by himself.

As for the second brother, he studies seriously and doesn't make mistakes, but he doesn't put in a lot of energy either.

As for third brother Li Qingzhu, all he heard was new clothes!

Go to school and so on, love so and so!

He likes to climb trees, dig out bird eggs, and run around and play!
