Chapter 1226 The Matchmaker Is Here
Xiao Bao obediently let go of her hand, but a small hand was always holding a corner of her clothes.
Shen Qingci had no choice but to let him pull, while he went to the firewood room and put down the firewood.
Fifth Uncle and Fifth Aunt are looking after the wild piglets raised in the pigsty.
The two are still discussing, this little one will grow up when it is raised until the Chinese New Year, and it can be sold for a lot of silver taels when it is sold. Wild pork is much more expensive than domestic pork Well, don't underestimate this wild cub, maybe this one can be sold for twenty or thirty taels by then, and the domestic pork can only be sold for a dozen taels at most.
Although the family has saved thousands of taels of silver now, the crops are also used to saving. Besides, the twenty or thirty taels is not a small amount.
So the two of them never had any idea about this little wild boar, and they don't even think about this little wild boar now, how did Shen Qingci get it?
Shen Qingci even beat the black bear four times, let alone such a small wild boar.
Uncle Wu asked He Fugui's second son to come over, and Bao Fugui's second son was an expert at building walls and was good at brick and tile work, so he asked him to help them build a new pigsty. Uncle is afraid that the domesticated and wild ones cannot be kept together.
The second son of He Fugui's family was naturally willing. After taking the tools, he took the tools and made three mistakes. It took him two days to build a new pigsty, and the wild boar was kept there.
As for the fat rabbit, the next day, the fifth aunt slaughtered it, and cooked a pot of rabbit meat, and sent it to the He family. , they can only send some food.
They ate this fat rabbit for a total of several days. There was enough oil and water in the house, and meat and eggs were available every day. After eating well, Xiaobao's face was full of flesh again. The spiritual eyes are much brighter now.
Fifth Uncle and Fifth Aunt didn't mention the matter of leaving relatives at all, and if they didn't say anything, Shen Qingci didn't ask, whether it was good or bad, it had nothing to do with her, she would leave this place anyway, and always One day, I will return to my home.
She did everything she could, and she did what she couldn't.
She still collected firewood and harvested eggs as before, but she didn't hit any big guys anymore. It's also possible that because of the sudden loss of four big black bears in the mountain, those beasts and the like were also Instinctively frightened, even Shen Qingci occasionally went up a little further, but he didn't see any large beasts coming in or out.
He didn't hear anything, and he didn't smell anything else.
So the prey in this mountain were afraid of her, so they didn't dare to come out. If they didn't dare to come out, where would she go to find the silver? Her silver is gone now.
Since the age of six, Shen Qingci, who has never worried about silver flowers, finally knows why he has to bow down because of five buckets of rice.
When she went back, she found that the people in the village had more and more smiles than before. The autumn harvest is coming soon. This year is another good year, and the autumn crops are growing very well. Thinking about harvesting this time, not only can there be enough for the rest of the food, but also the rest can be sold.
And the villagers have always been like this. The extra autumn grain will be sold. As long as there is enough food and seeds for next year, the rest will be sold for money. After all, to the villagers, they are not fifth uncles, and they cannot beat black bears , also can't dig herbs, so the main annual income, autumn grain also accounts for more than half.
And the source of their money, so to speak, is from the autumn grain.
The harvest of autumn grains is very fast. They were originally harvested in a rush, and they were also afraid of rain. It is not like this has never happened in previous years. It was clear that the sky was clear, but within a short time, it was windy and rainy again. Yes, if the food is soaked, even the seeds left for next year will be gone. This is the most terrible thing.
So as long as the autumn harvest comes, no matter men, women, old or young, they all have to go to the fields to help with the harvest, and no one can be left behind. One more person will give more strength, and the earlier the harvest, the earlier the peace of mind.
Uncle Wu's family has no land, so they are the most leisurely in the whole village. However, Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu are used to helping the villagers go to the autumn harvest together. As for Shen Qingci, she doesn't know how to harvest food. No, she didn't go either, she still went to collect firewood in the mountains.
And she never thought that she was so ugly and couldn't speak, so no one would think of her.
When she came back from the mountains, she was sensitive to find that there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at her from time to time, that kind of eyes, as if she was some kind of pork for sale, she frowned a little, she didn't like this kind of eyes very much eyes.
After putting the firewood in the woodshed, she entered the kitchen, scooped some water from the pot and drank it.
"Xiaoya, come here."
She had just taken a few sips when she heard Fifth Aunt calling her.
She walked into the house, and found that besides the fifth aunt, there was also a woman in red and green with a face like a wall. She was very old, but she was showing off her beautiful clothes. How ugly is she, or is she afraid that others will not see her ugliness?
There is also a middle-aged woman. The clothes on her body are neatly dressed, but there is also a slightly damp musty smell. These clothes should not be worn often, and they are also pressed in the bottom of the box. They are only worn on important occasions. Take it out and put it on.
Shen Qingci had never seen these people before, so naturally he didn't know why these people came here?
Did he come to see Fifth Aunt, or was it related to her?
And how does she feel that these two people come over, it seems that it may really have something to do with her?
She walked over and also sat down. The fifth aunt smiled at the two wives, "This is my daughter, named Xiaoya."
And after she finished speaking, she said goodbye to Shen Qing.
"Xiaoya, this is Matchmaker Wang, and this is your Aunt Yang, who is also from Linhe Village."
Shuanghe Village is on the upper reaches of the Shuanghe River, while Linhe Village is on the lower reaches of the river. The two villages are very close to each other. Of course, among the marriages, the two villages have the most marriages.
Shen Qingci heard the words "Wang Matchmaker", so he knew what these people were here for. He couldn't say that the matchmaker was talking about Xiaobao, right? Xiaobao is a big baby, so he must be talking about her. of.
But just like her, dumb, ugly, and picked up, what are they trying to figure out about her?
"You are Xiaoya?"
Matchmaker Wang is indeed a matchmaker. Although this is the first time she saw Shen Qingci, she was indeed frightened. It looks too ugly. The black one seems to have rolled out of the bottom of the pot, and she This is the first time I've seen such an ugly person in such an old age.
