A good time for farming through the ages

Chapter 57 [057] 20 Yuan

Zhuo Dajun came back after two o'clock in the afternoon, this speed is really fast enough!

I went at eight o'clock, and it takes two or three hours to get to the county seat, which is equivalent to being sold out when I get there?
Seeing how relaxed his father's steps are, he probably sold it for a good price?

Before A-Niang and Auntie could ask, Dad smiled frankly and said, "The two soft-shelled turtles cost two catties and eight taels in total, and they gave us a total of 14 yuan. They said they would give us fifty cents for one tael, and five yuan for one catty." , the remaining fish, shrimp and crabs added up and gave us 20 yuan, and today we sold it for [-] yuan, I didn't expect that soft-shelled turtle to be so valuable!"

Is fifty cents a tael worth it?

Well, pork seems to be only one or two cents a catty, and a soft-shelled turtle that costs five yuan per catty is considered sky-high, right?

Of course, this was the price of pork before the famine, and during the famine it might have been more than one or two cents a catty. As for the soft-shelled turtle, it would probably not have been sold at this price in normal times.

Zhuo Dajun was very excited to go out for a trip and earn money by doing a ten-day job.

"It's all right now, the children's tuition and living expenses are settled again, our family Linlin has contributed a lot!"

Mrs. Wang went to the kitchen to warm up his father's meal. After Zhuo Dajun washed his face with water, he hugged Zhuo Lin and praised him fiercely.

Zhuo Lin is ashamed to take credit for this: "Father and elder brother worked hard from dawn to dusk to release fish cages, especially since Daddy traveled so far to sell them, you are the hardest one!"

"Oh, this little padded jacket didn't hurt in vain, I think her father is very rare." Auntie was joking beside her, and Auntie was also laughing in the stove.

Her silly younger brother was sitting on the bench bored by himself, and he also opened his arms to ask his father to hug him. Zhuo Dajun pretended not to see him, and walked around the yard twice with Zhuo Lin in his arms, expressing that he would go to the river tonight, this time Put two more, and said that he had to hurry up and make another one after dinner.

Zhuo Jian stretched his arms for a long time, but no one paid any attention to him, and wailed bitterly with his mouth puckered. Zhuo Lin looked disgusted with his nose bubbling.

In the end, it was the aunt who went over to pick him up, went to the sink to wash his face, and said with a smile.

"You should be thankful that your sister is not the youngest, otherwise there is no food and drink for you, you have to be like your brothers, eat what your sister can't eat, alas, see There are so many boys, my head hurts, it's better to be a sweet and soft girl!"

The uncle's sigh made the mother who came over to bring the meal to the father secretly wink: "Didn't the elder brother come back next month? Do you want another one?"

The aunt blushed, and glared at A Niang, "You think it's so easy to have a child, what if there is another one with handles?"

A Niang laughed happily, "It's not a big deal. At the beginning, I thought that I would have two sons. It would be great if I had two daughters. But it turned out to be a good thing, and I gave birth to a son, so I said, this has to be touched, you If you don't conceive, wouldn't you even be looking forward to a girl? If there is another one with a handle, then we should stop thinking about it completely? What if it is a fragrant girl?"

Auntie's words made Auntie fall into deep thought, obviously a little moved.

The expressions of the sister-in-law and sister-in-law fell into Zhuo Lin's eyes, thinking that in the 60s and [-]s, there were not many women who could see a daughter, and the situation in their family was even more unique. Even in later generations, they would not have a son. The posture of letting go, but now, it is clear that she will not give birth to a girl, so she will not give up!
