Chapter 10

"Father, why do I think this Liujiazhuang is very rich?"

Along the way, Mo Qianrui looked around.In her opinion, Liujiazhuang is more grand than Yangliu Village.Zhuangzikou is full of bluestone roads, not gravel roads like Yangliu Village.There are also very neat houses on both sides. Although they are not luxurious, they look very grand because they are all the same tile-roofed houses. It makes Mo Qianrui feel like he has come to the countryside in his previous life.

Before Dad could answer, the aunt laughed: "The little girl has such a sweet mouth, and this Zhuangzikou is naturally the best. How can those poor people live in the front? But, it is also thanks to the master's heart." Shan, every two years I pay for the repairs of the house, and the rent I receive is the lowest in ten miles and eight villages. Tsk tsk, those people who are favored by the master but want to run out all day really have their consciences eaten by dogs."

Mo Qianrui was embarrassed. In her opinion, there was nothing wrong with people going to high places and water flowing to low places.Just like she changed jobs more than once in her previous life, as long as she didn't violate the contract, what about pursuing a better life?

Naturally, these words were just slander in her heart, so she wouldn't be so stupid as to tell the truth.However, after taking a look at Father who was full of approval, it seemed that he thought what Auntie said made sense.

Alas, this is the generation gap!

Soon, the three of them arrived outside the courtyard of the aunt's house. The courtyard wall was not high, and standing outside, they could see chickens romping around in the courtyard.There was a little girl about seven or eight years old with a basket on her arm, and she gave the chickens a handful of food.

After a rough calculation, good guy, this aunt's family also raises at least thirty or forty chickens.

"Girl, tell me... How many chickens do we want to buy? Five more?" Seeing the chickens in the yard, Dad suddenly hesitated.Originally, according to his idea, even if he could replace these chickens with five little chickens, he would be satisfied.After all, they buy whole live chickens these days, and chicken pieces like their own are not worth the price.Who would have thought that after Mo Qianrui made such a fuss, not only would all the chicken be sold, but the price would also be very expensive.Subconsciously turned the back pan behind him, well, the big iron money is there.

Mo Qianrui has also considered this issue.She had thought before that if the method of grilling was good, it would be a way to make money.So she desperately wanted to buy a few more chickens.

Unlike pigs, chickens don't eat much and don't need to bother too much.They are kept in captivity in the yard on weekdays, anyway, the sun dam of the Mo family is also empty.At night, just lock them in the chicken coop.

No, after what happened last time, Mo Qianrui felt that it was necessary for her to improve the chicken coop. Otherwise, if there was another chicken thief, wouldn't she be in vain?

"Father, this time we have money, why don't we buy more chickens? The hens will lay eggs in the future, and if the roosters are, we can buy a few less and we can eat them after the Chinese New Year. However, our chicken coop It’s too small to fit so many chickens. Or, why not clean up the granary when we go back? A large granary can raise dozens of chickens?”

Father Mo Qianrui was very moved when he heard this.

Peasants, first look at the field, and second look at chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep, and pigs.In the case of the Mo family, it is basically impossible to add more land.Chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep, and pigs, the easiest thing to buy is chickens.However, the family has a small population and a lot of work on weekdays, Dad is still a little uncertain.

"Girl, this chicken used to be prepared by your mother. I'm afraid she won't be able to handle it."

"Don't be afraid. I used to ask Auntie to feed the chickens because I wanted to take care of Erya. Now that Erya is grown up, I can help take care of the chickens."

After hesitating for a while, Dad was finally persuaded by Mo Qianrui.He thought to himself, if he was really too busy, at worst he would get up earlier and help prepare the chicken food, that would be nothing.

The father and daughter discussed for a while, and finally decided to buy 25 chickens, two of which were roosters, and the rest were hens.The two roosters were killed to worship their ancestors before the Chinese New Year, while the hens had to raise and lay eggs.

The aunt was listening with a smile on her face. Seeing that they had decided, she said a little embarrassedly: "There are roosters, but I'm afraid there are not so many hens. Why don't you just wait at my house, I How many can you borrow from your neighbors?"

"It's done. It's just that we are going to visit relatives. We will come over in about half an hour. Sister-in-law, do you think it's okay?" Dad said.

To see relatives?
Mo Qianrui was a little puzzled, but immediately realized it.This Liujiazhuang is A Niang's natal family, so the relatives are naturally the grandfather's family.Thinking of this, Mo Qianrui felt excited.

In her previous life, in her limited childhood memory, apart from her parents and sister, the one who impressed her most was her grandmother.The grandma in my memory smiled very kindly, always liked to reach out to rub her head, and tease my younger sister cheerfully.However, after the terrible car accident, both her parents and younger sister passed away. After she was discharged from the hospital, she was sent to the orphanage. Later, she learned from the dean’s mother that after hearing the news of the car accident, her grandmother had a sudden seizure. Cerebral hemorrhage passed away.And she didn't even see her grandmother's last face.

With this anticipation, Mo Qianrui followed behind his father, walking towards the inside of Liujiazhuang.After walking for a while, Mo Qianrui finally understood what the aunt said.

The houses in Zhuangzikou are all refurbished, and the roads are also paved with bluestone slabs. These people seem to have no worries about food and drink.But the further we went, the worse the situation became.

The road became a gravel road, and then turned into a dirt road with potholes.The houses have changed from tile-roofed houses to wooden houses, and then to adobe houses.The farmers who came and went changed from clean and tidy clothes to filled with pudding, and there were even shirtless children running around in front of and behind the house.

Mo Qianrui glanced at her clothes subconsciously. She wasn't wearing good clothes for meeting guests, but they were very clean.There was no pudding on the clothes on the upper body, but a piece of cloth was added to the bottom of the trousers. Obviously, the trousers were from last year. This year she grew taller, so A Niang just took a piece of it.This kind of sewing is also very common in farmers' homes, and there is nothing to be ashamed of.

"It should be here." Dad stood in front of a row of dilapidated old houses, hesitantly said, "Last time, it was when you turned one year old. This...it should be right."

She raised her eyebrows, Mo Qianrui is already ten years old this year, which means that her father hasn't been here for nine years.Tsk tsk, it's luck that I didn't get lost.

Just as he was about to start a few words of teasing, Mo Qianrui's eyes suddenly sank.

Not far away, several half-grown kids walked towards this side together.The leader was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy.He looks a little thin, but his stature is as tall as his father's.He was wearing linen clothes, which were already dirty and unremarkable, and he was wearing a pair of mille-soled cloth shoes with broken toes. He walked forward and talked to the people beside him.

This was a very common scene, but Mo Qianrui secretly clenched his hands into fists.

There were criss-cross wounds on the boy's face, which looked like he had been scratched.God damn chicken thief, let's see where you go this time!
