Chapter 6

The pig sent by Li Erzhuzi was put by Hu in the pigsty. After Fang Lin cleaned the yard, she took the steamed buns out of the cage drawer, scooped up the hot water in the pot and began to mix the pig food.The snow outside had melted a little, and Fang Lin's nose was red and itched badly from the heat.

During the slack season, the family eats two meals a day, and Fang Lin returns to the kitchen to cook after feeding the pigs.

Fang Min had already lit the fire, and the corn and hazelnuts had already been put into the pot.She lifted the lid of the pot and took a look, then stirred it with a ladle, "You add two handfuls of firewood, the fire is a bit lower." After that, she turned her head and fished out two pickled radishes from the urn, "I don't have much food at home. Just cut a pickle and eat it."

Fang Jiao came out of the room with a yawn, and she heard such a sentence as soon as she walked to the kitchen, she was not happy at the moment, "every day is cornbread pickles, can't we change something new. Didn't my mother accept Li Erzhuzi Wu yesterday?" A hundred bucks, let’s cut some meat.”

Fang Lin was stunned, and cut her hand without paying attention. She stuffed her finger into her mouth and squeezed it. The stepmother told her that the dowry was a pig, and she didn't even mention the five hundred dollars. If Fang Jiao hadn't mentioned it, I'm afraid she will always be kept in the dark.

Five hundred coins is half a tael of silver, plus a pig is now worth more than a tael. Fang Lin never knew that she was so valuable.

Thinking about something in her heart, her hands didn't stop. Fang Lin quickly cut a plate of pickles. She dug out half a spoonful of lard from the earthen pot, heated it up, poured it on the pickles, and cleaned up the chopping board. After a while, he took the fire stick from Fang Min's hand and said, "The rice is almost done, please bring the bowl."

Fang Jiao stared for a long time, the two sisters didn't talk to her, she was so angry, she turned her head and went to complain to Mrs Hu.

The Hu family withheld the five hundred dollars without telling Fang Laosan and Fang Lin's sisters, and planned to give Fang Jiao a dowry. After all, it was not the old Fang's own. Unreliable, I sold her just to eat some meat.

At the dinner table, Hu's face was full of smiles. He first picked up a chopsticks dish for Fang Lin, cleared his throat, and then said, "Sister Lin, I discussed it with your father. The eighth day of next month is a good day. The Li family will meet Come pick me up. Erzhuzi gave me some money yesterday, saying that I want you to tear a few feet of cloth to make new clothes, wait for a while after dinner, you and I will go to town."

Fang Min also heard Fang Jiao's words in the morning, she curled her lips, "Five hundred dollars can make a few new clothes, since it's for my sister, why don't you give her the money and let her choose by herself."

Mrs. Hu pretended not to hear Fang Min's words, and still smiled, "Er Zhuzi is an honest person. I also asked someone to ask about his doll, and he is very good. You only need to have a son of your own size when you marry, and you will be happy for the rest of your life." With support, you don’t have to be afraid of anything.”

Before eating, Jiao was scolded bloody by Mrs. Hu, how could she be happy when she heard this now, she dropped her chopsticks and said, "I want to make new clothes too, these clothes are worn out. "

Fang Lin's eyes fell on Fang Min who was on the side. Her younger sister hardly wore new clothes. Fang Jiao didn't want the unpatched one on her body, but she didn't make a sound. Clean up the dishes.

With a hot face and a cold butt, Hu snorted and dragged Fang Jiao into the house, and gave her a few copper coins, "I'm so greedy, you brat, I really owed you in my previous life."

Fang Lin was washing pots in the kitchen when Second Aunt Wu came in next door, gave her a strange look, and then went to talk to Mrs. Hu.
