Farmer's clever woman busy farming

Chapter 213

Gu Jiujiu looked at the shopkeeper, then looked at the pork in the butcher shop, and then pointed to one piece and said, "The shopkeeper cut me twenty catties of lean raw meat."

"Okay, little lady, wait a moment." After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he cut down [-] catties of raw pork for Gu Jiujiu very skillfully.

After the meat was cut, the shopkeeper took it aside and weighed it, no more, no less, just [-] catties.The shopkeeper's knife skills have always been very accurate for the pork that has been sold for decades, but in order not to be short of weight, he still weighs the cut meat before giving it to customers.

He took the oil paper and wrapped the meat. The shopkeeper just looked at Gu Jiujiu and continued to smile and said, "I've already cut the pork for you, little lady, do you want to buy some more?"

"Shopkeeper, I also want some pork bones. I wonder if you have this here?" Gu Jiujiu looked at the shopkeeper and asked tentatively.

"Yes, there are quite a few more, where are they all put?" the shopkeeper said, pointing to a large wooden basin on the ground, "there is no meat in the big bones, except for the farmers who can't afford meat." Occasionally, I would buy some to go back to get some meat, but usually no one would buy them.”

Gu Jiujiu looked in the direction of the shopkeeper's finger, and saw that the wooden basin was full of big pig bones.She knew that the big pig bones in the market were very cheap, so she wanted all of them, and it probably cost less than a few copper coins.Thinking of this, she looked at the shopkeeper and said, "I don't know how much money is needed for such a big pig?"

"I can't sell it here." The shopkeeper smiled, "If you want it, young lady, you can just give me thirty coppers."

Sure enough, it was as cheap as she imagined. After the shopkeeper finished speaking, Gu Jiujiu asked the shopkeeper to wrap up all these pig bones for her.

The shopkeeper wrapped the pork bone, and gave it to Gu Jiujiu together with the raw meat before, "Little lady, you put it away, this is the pork bone and raw meat you want."

While taking the raw meat and pork bones from the shopkeeper, Gu Jiujiu took out money from his pocket and paid him.

After collecting the money, seeing Gu Jiujiu and the others preparing to leave the butcher shop, the shopkeeper not only hurriedly smiled and told them to go slowly, but also took the initiative to take the pig bones Gu Jiujiu and the others bought to the ox cart Put it on.

Gu Jiujiu thanked the shopkeeper, and then drove away with Yan's ox cart.

Back home, Gu Jiujiu drove the cart to the cowshed, and Yan went to the kitchen to prepare lunch for everyone.

There is still a small half of the stewed chicken with mushrooms last night, and there is no need to cook. Just heat this up and eat it.

Soon, Yan's cooked rice and sold the rice noodles all morning. Everyone was hungry, and almost all the chicken in the bowl was eaten up.

After the meal, Gu Jiujiu put the raw meat and pork bones bought at the market today into a basket, and when she was done, she and Yan Shi carried the basket to Uncle Gu's house.

Uncle Gu has been taking care of brother Zhuang at home these few days, instead of going to the market to find work.He was chopping firewood in the yard, when he saw Yan Shi and Gu Jiujiu coming in from the yard, he immediately smiled and asked them to come in and sit down.

When Yan went to the main room, Uncle Gu went to the kitchen to make two cups of crude tea for them to eat.

Gu Jiujiu took a sip of tea, and gave the vegetable basket in his hand to Uncle Gu, "Uncle Wu, this is the raw meat and pork bones that my mother and I bought at the market, you keep it, and you can give it to me after stewing it." Brother Zhuang mends his body."
