After Yu Mei had this idea, she naturally did it. A few days later, because it rained and she couldn't leave the stall, Lin Sheng kept her idea in mind and went out holding an umbrella.

"Xiaoyin, it's still raining outside. What is Lin Sheng doing?"

"Brother Sheng said, Mom, you want to raise two pigs at home. He just happened to find out that there is a house at the east end of the village that just gave birth to piglets, so he planned to go and have a look."

"Then can't you wait until the rain stops before going out?"

"Mom, you don't understand. This piglet is in hot demand. If you go here too late, the good ones will be bought by others. If this piglet doesn't choose those with strong backs, or the backs won't be fattened, Or you can’t raise them big, after all, these piglets are not cheap, and no one wants to spend a lot of money.”

"That's right, then I really don't understand this."

She thought that as long as she bought the piglets and fed them on time, they would grow up, but she didn't expect that she would need to know how to pick them so that the piglets would grow big and plump.

When the rain stopped, Lin Sheng came back and asked her to take the money and go out.

"Huh? How much does that cost?"

After all, she had never bought piglets before, so she didn't know the market price here.

Since Lin Xing woke up and no longer had to take decoction every day, the financial power of the family would return to Yu Mei's hands.

"Take ten coins first, there should be more."

Ten, ten coins? Does it cost that much to buy two piglets?

Ten coins is equivalent to a thousand coins. When converted into silver, it is one tael of silver. To ordinary people, one tael of silver is no longer a small amount. Tsk tsk tsk!

No wonder butchers make money selling pork, which shows that the initial cost is not low.

Yu Mei didn't know the market situation, so she naturally carried as much as Lin Sheng said.

She wrapped the ten coins in cloth and held them in her hands. It was quite heavy, weighing at least several kilograms.

When they arrived at the house selling piglets, Yu Mei found that there were four or five people waiting here. As soon as they saw her coming, they couldn't help but want to say something mean.

"Oh, Lin Sheng, you are so busy every day, why did you buy two piglets? It seems that you have made a lot of money in the past few months."

Yu Mei takes her son and daughter-in-law to the town to run a stall every day. This matter has long been no secret in the village.

Seeing that they were making money, naturally some people had ideas in this regard.

"I didn't have much money, but Lin Sheng's father spent it all."

"Oh! Lin Shengniang, look what you are talking about. Lin Jue is already awake, so there is no need to spend money on him. You said you made money by shaving your head, so why are you hiding it?"

"He is awake, but treating his leg still requires a lot of money. The money our family makes in a day is not enough for Lin Jue to pay for two doses of medicine. This is not how much money we can make in a day. , I might as well collect the money to buy two piglets and raise them so that I can sell them next year to buy medicine for him."

Yu Mei knew that wealth should not be exposed. She didn't know that these people were just trying to find out the details of their family. If she knew that they made money by cooking, they would have to go to the stalls. If they didn't make money later, Who can guarantee that they will not be jealous of them and make belittling actions in private? People's hearts are very complicated these days.

"Why do you think this Lin Jue really can't stand up? That's really a pity."

After the people present learned that Lin Jue's leg was disabled, they said words of regret, but the smiles in their eyes almost overflowed. Lin Sheng was very dissatisfied when he saw them like this. If his mother hadn't told him not to interrupt as much as possible, he would have had a good argument with them.

no! What good would it do to them if his father's legs were crippled? Why would he just watch the fun?

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Since everyone is here to pick piglets, don't waste time here."

Yu Mei didn't want to say anything more to them on this matter. After all, if she said too much, Lin Sheng would definitely be unhappy. After all, he couldn't bear to hear anyone say anything bad about his father.

As soon as they heard that they could pick piglets, everyone was very excited and wanted to pick the best one.

But Yu Mei watched for a long time and found that they all tried to choose the smallest ones. This made her very confused, so she couldn't help but ask Lin Sheng on the side.

"Lin Sheng, why is no one picking these big ones? I see they are quite healthy and quite active, aren't they?"

When choosing piglets, shouldn’t you choose the bigger ones? The big ones are definitely easier to feed than the small ones.

"Mom, these piglets are weighed by kilograms. The bigger the piglet is, the more money it will cost. If the price is beyond everyone's ability, then everyone can only settle for the smaller one. , although this little one is not as easy to raise as the big one, but as long as it is healthy, it will be easy to grow up if you raise it for a long time."

Is this, like this? She thought that no one would choose the big one, and thought there was something wrong with the big one. If that was the case...

"I think those two will be the only ones for the new baby. Otherwise, just buy those two. They look plump. When they grow up, they will definitely be super fat."

The key is that there are only three months left before the Chinese New Year. If you don’t pick the bigger piglets, when it’s time to kill the New Year pigs during the Chinese New Year, there won’t be much meat left in the pig’s head and innards. Don’t ask for half of it. Eat, half of it is made into food and sold.

"Sister Yu, have you decided?"

The old man selling piglets also laughed when he heard the direction of Yu Mei's finger. After all, he made money by selling piglets, so in the end, the biggest piglets were kept. He was still worried. If the two big ones couldn't be sold, he would have to keep them for himself. If he sold one less, he would lose several hundred pennies.

"It's decided, I want these two big ones. It's hard to feed these small ones!"

"Lin Sheng, you don't have any objections, right?"

The old man could hardly suppress the smile on his lips, but he still had to ask Lin Sheng beside him. After all, he was not sure who was in charge of the two.

"Uncle, just the two my mother mentioned. Please catch them and weigh them."

What other opinions could he have? Besides, it was easier to support the older ones, not to mention that he calculated that the money they brought was enough.

"Oh! I will catch it and weigh it for you now!"

After saying that, the old man smiled so brilliantly that his pleats seemed to have grown into sperm.

Yu Mei:……

Isn't this old man's smile too exaggerated? I only sold two pigs, does it look like I got a lot of money?

And everyone else who was still hesitating about which piglet to choose, when they saw Yu Mei picked the two biggest ones, they all laughed at her in their hearts. Who doesn't know that the bigger the piglets are, the more money they will cost. The more money she has, the more money she will have. If she can't come up with that much money soon, there will be a good show.
