Chapter 43 Buying Pork

Chapter 43 Buying Pork

Old man Luo knew her temper, so he just lowered his head and chopped the bones in silence.The meat on the bones is removed, leaving only the bones, which cannot be wasted casually. When there is nothing to do, everyone loves to stew radish and cabbage with two bones.

Luo Tiandu murmured inwardly that Yao's words were not too shabby, obviously, most of the pigs were fed by Luo Mingdu, but she watched Luo Mingdu eat breakfast every day and then go out to hunt pigweed with a basket on his back, every two days A big pot of pig food was going to be cooked, and only during the few months when the family separated was Yao's responsibility.Counting the pig being killed, it's not too much for their family to share more than a dozen catties of meat.

But Yao shi didn't think so.When the family was separated, they didn't mention the matter of dividing the pigs. Since they didn't mention it, it was all hers. How could her things be taken out to make money for Luo Baisu's family? She stood in front of the door with cold eyes. Staring straight at the east room like the cold wind of the twelfth lunar month.

If the people in the east room were really so cheeky and dared to come out to get meat, she would dare to quarrel with them during the Chinese New Year!

"Da Lang, why don't you come and take the meat and marinate it early?" Old man Luo in the yard urged again.

"Oh, just come." Fang replied, she didn't want to deal with Yao, so she asked Luo Baisu to take it out to buy meat.

"Excellent pork belly, the butcher shop sells more than 100 yuan a catty, and the family has no money now, if they sell it, they can help Bai Han to pay for the travel expenses for the exam next year." Yao raised his eyebrows, "huh" He said, "Dalang, this piece weighs more than ten catties. Are you going to buy it with money or exchange it with grain?"

"Shut up, you!" Old man Luo was bored for a long time, and finally couldn't help it anymore, and said, "We are all a family, so what if you kill a pig and share some meat with Dalang's family? When I chop meat for Bai Qiu, you Why don't you say it?!"

Luo Tian knew it was broken as soon as he heard it.The old man Luo had good intentions, but it became the direct fuse that angered Yao Shi.Now she can be considered to understand Yao's psychology, Yao's heart hates their family, in the final analysis it is because of old man Luo, Yao has been competing with Luo Baisu's mother in his heart.It's fine if old man Luo treats their family indifferently, but if he openly protects them like this, even if nothing happens, the Yao family will make troubles upside down.

"Bai Qiu was born by me. The children I raised don't just eat a few pieces of pork, I'm willing to give them even if they want to eat the meat from my body. Don't even think about taking a penny from me for someone else's." Yao Shi said with a sneer.

"You, you!" Old man Luo pointed at her "you" for a long time, but still didn't say a word, and finally said, "How did your heart grow? Why are you still saying such nonsense at this time? Lang has been filial to you for so many years, but what you said about someone else's family hurts the child's heart! Is your heart made of stone?"

"I have sons and daughters, so I don't need others to honor them." Speaking of children, Yao's voice became sharper.

All the grievances in her life started from the child, even if her heart was made of tofu, it would be enough to be ground into a big bluestone after all these years, hard and hard.

have to!And back again!Luo Tian tugged at Luo Baisu's sleeve, and whispered: "Father, let's go inside."

Even if the meat was brought back, I would still be breathless after eating it, so it would be better to boil radish and cabbage in fresh water every day.

Fang could hear clearly in the room, and saw Luo Tiandu and Luo Baisu both hide in the room.She thought about what Yao shi said, although she was used to it, but every time she heard it, she still felt sad.The grievances and grievances of the previous generation became an incomprehensible knot when they came to them. No matter how diligent and filial son and daughter-in-law she and Luo Baisu were, they still lost to the resentment in Yao's heart.

She has a strong temper, and when she understood this, she wanted to fight and ignore Yao Shi.But when I think that the two children haven't eaten a few mouthfuls of delicious food all year round, it's the New Year, and the grandparents' family kills pigs, and they can't even taste a bite. This heart is like old sauerkraut pickled at the bottom of the vat. It's too sour.

"Why don't we take the money and weigh less?" Mrs. Fang discussed with Luo Baisu.

Luo Baisu is a child who loves children, nodded and said, "Let's weigh a few catties."

When I bought the land ahead, I spent ten taels of silver. Later, I bought seeds, farm tools and new year's goods. I spent more than two taels of money on bits and pieces. Fang exchanged the remaining five taels of silver for two taels, and exchanged them for The copper coins are locked in the chest.At this moment, she opened the box and counted again and again. She had just counted five hundred Wen, and after holding it in her hands for a long time, she finally took another hundred Wen.

Fang didn't let Luo Baisu go this time, she took an old clothes and put away the wallet by herself, and went to the yard.

Old man Luo had already threaded through the piece of meat with straw and put it aside. When he saw Fang Shi coming out, he picked it up and gave it to Fang Shi.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Yao jumped up, snatched the piece of meat, and said viciously to Mrs. Fang: "One hundred yuan per catty, if you want to eat, you can bring the money, if you have no money, go back and eat radish and cabbage!"

"Have you made enough trouble? It's almost Chinese New Year, can't you calm down?" Old man Luo couldn't bear it anymore, and yelled at Yao Shi.

"Luo Quan, you are a fool, you treat me like a son, and you don't even look at whether people treat you like a father. If Bai Han wants to talk about marriage, the family has no money and can't get hired. The eldest family has saved more than a dozen coins. You didn't even say to give it to Bai Han to marry a wife! You're so blind to something that only recognizes money but not people, and you still wholeheartedly protect it!"

Seeing that the two of them were getting more and more noisy, Luo Tian felt a little sympathetic to Fang, and he didn't know what evil she had done in her previous life, marrying into such a family was terrible.

Fang wanted to go back to the house with the money instead of buying meat.She felt a little regretful, why didn't she think about weighing a few catties when she went back to town, and she would have to pay for it anyway, where would she buy it?At home, I still suffer from this kind of uselessness.

Fang spread out the old clothes on the table, revealing a large bag of copper coins, and when Yao saw the money, he reluctantly closed his mouth.No matter how displeased she was with Luo Baisu, she would not make things difficult for Qian.

On the contrary, old man Luo blushed immediately, glared at Luo Baisu, and said, "What is this for? It's almost Chinese New Year, are you deliberately making me feel uncomfortable?" After finishing speaking, he wrapped his clothes as before, Pass it to Luo Baisu.

Unlike Yao Shi, old man Luo seldom scolded Fang Shi as his daughter-in-law. Even if Fang Shi did something wrong, he scolded his own son and gave his daughter-in-law some face.Just like this time, Luo Baihan bluntly brought Ying'er home, he really couldn't bear it, and he only vented his anger on his own son, and seldom sought trouble from Ying'er.

Luo Baisu refused to accept it, and pressed old man Luo's hand, saying: "Father, you can accept it, and let our family live a stable New Year."

It's all said for this sake, no matter how much old man Luo has to say, he swallows it all back.He glanced at Yao shi, who was watching covetously, and let out a heavy "ah", not knowing what it was like in his heart.

The Fang family only took six hundred Wen, and refused to ask for more. Old man Luo wanted to help their family, so he specially picked the fattest piece, chopped six catties, and picked up the clotted pig's blood in the kitchen. Fang took a pot back.

In the afternoon, Luo Baiqiu and Luo Baihan came in together, and there were also a few scholars who were familiar with Luo Baihan, they all heard that the Luo family had killed the Nian pig, and they came over for a meal.

Because of Yinger's matter, old man Luo has not had a good face towards Luo Baihan these days, now seeing that Luo Baihan's classmate is an outsider after all, and wanted to save Luo Baihan some face, he stopped scolding him, and beat him very politely call.It's just that the few scholars who came together, although they didn't even pass the exam for a scholar, they kept saying "Ziyue" sage books, the old man Luo has planted crops all his life, and he can't even read a few big characters, listen to them talk , feeling sour, couldn't understand a word, so he just sat for a while, then asked Luo Baisu to come out to accompany the guests, and went to the house to rest by himself.

Luo Baisu hasn't been to school since his grandfather passed away. In his spare time, he reads by himself and even rarely writes articles. He is really not familiar with Luo Baihan's classmates, so he really doesn't have much to say. He just sits on the sidelines and listens. They talked and flattered each other, and their teeth were on the verge of settling.

On the contrary, Mrs. Yao, hearing those sour scholars flattering Luo Baihan, felt very proud. He really wished that the days would pass by "swiftly", so that Luo Baihan could go to participate in the Qiu Wei, and take the exam to bring someone back to shine on the family.And when Luo Baiqiu came home, she wanted to hold Luo Baiqiu to talk a few times, so she set up the old lady's book, and refused to go to the kitchen herself, and only instructed Yinger to cook.

In the east room, Mrs. Fang cooked the rice a long time ago, cooked a pot of sauerkraut and pig blood soup, and fried two more dishes, and sent Luo Tiandu to call Luo Baisu to come over for dinner.

Luo Tiandu ran to the main room, Yao Shi and Luo Baiqiu and Luo Baining were whispering in the room, only Yinger was busy in the kitchen.An old tree stump was burned in the main room, and Luo Baihan was sitting in the main room with a few classmates to enjoy the fire. She looked over coldly and found that they were all the scholars that Luo Baihan usually got close to. It was cold, and he was still wearing a blue shirt, not even a jacket.The strange thing is that Luo Baihan is familiar with him, it seems that the relationship is still very close.

She couldn't help but wonder.The last time I ate wine at "Jufulou", and had no money to exchange money, those scholars slipped away without loyalty and left Luo Baihan alone. It was obvious that Luo Baihan was taken advantage of. They turned their backs and stopped communicating, why Luo Baihan still chatted with them, the friendship was not affected in the slightest.

She only stood by the side for a short while, when she heard those scholars praise Luo Baihan in different ways, one praised him as a young talent, he would definitely go to high school in the future, and the other praised him as a talented person, and he would definitely be included in the gold list next year.A few people, you call me elder brother, and I call you good brother, and compliment each other, and the expression and tone seem to be sure to be sure in next autumn.Her father Luo Baisu was sitting in the corner, yawning while warming himself by the fire like a log.

Luo Tiandu rolled his eyes, and shouted at Luo Baisu: "Father, mother told you to come over for dinner."
