Chapter 113 The Lu Family is Rich Now

After the Lu family started raising pigs, countless people became jealous.

The village chief divided the 500 yuan from the pig sale equally among each household. They didn't have to pay a cent, but got 4 or 5 yuan for free, and the whole village was very happy.

Lu's parents have always used the feed that Lu Xiang got for him.

Usually some wild vegetables are added to feed the pigs.

The feed and staple food were all eaten up. Although I didn't spend any money on these pigs, I was surprised that these six pigs were so hungry. What would I do if I raised more in the future?

However, that was a matter for the future. Lu Xiang's parents were very excited when they returned to the village.

Holding two hundred yuan in their hands, they had never felt so rich in their lives. Before this, Lu Xiang had specifically warned them not to show off their wealth.

In fact, raising pigs is quite expensive, so it can be considered a bargain. The food processing factory buys a truckload for 20 yuan, which is a bargain for them.

After the last incident, the grain processing factory has been blacklisted. If they want to try again in the same way in the future, they will definitely not agree.

And the pig business is not always good.

The prices of selling pigs vary!

Sometimes you work hard for a year and only earn a little money.

Her parents knew what Lu Xiang said, but they were still happy.

The pig farm was so large, everyone was paying attention. Five of the six pigs had been sold, and everyone was asking how much they had sold for.

How much can you earn from raising pigs in a year?

The people in the village are not good at being tactful and are very straightforward.

Lu Xiang's parents said, "I didn't make much."

The other party continued to ask, "It's not much money, how much is it?" He looked like he was determined to get to the bottom of it.

But Lu Xiang's parents were like gourds with their mouths sawed off, and refused to reveal a single word.

It made everyone curious.

Some speculated it was a few dozen yuan, others a few hundred. Some even said a few thousand, and the speculation was getting more and more speculative.

Seeing that Lu's parents were keeping their mouths shut, others asked, "How many pigs are you going to catch next year?"

Lu Xiang's parents said they had to catch at least ten.

Having tasted success this time, I plan to raise a few more.

It was the first time he made money with his own ability, and he was very addicted.

Saying ten is a conservative number, in his mind he wished he could catch fifteen.

This trial with six pigs has given us enough confidence.

Even Fatty Liu said they raised the animals well.

From now on, I'll take care of this thing and make some money year-round. It's better than digging in the dirt anyway.

Father Lu didn't know how to say nice things, but he was grateful to Lu Xiang from the bottom of his heart. Thanks to her, otherwise, how could such a good thing happen to him?

I heard he'd already sold a batch of pigs. And some people were going to the village chief every day to make sarcastic remarks, trying to pry his life away.

With Lu Xiang around, they are still safe. Besides, the village chief also respects Lu Xiang.

Mr. Lu looked very happy and said to Mrs. Lu, "Let's prepare some wine today." This was the first time in the whole year.

Mother Lu was also happy and said to Lu Xiang, "Yes, let's eat at home today."

Lu Xiang said, "That won't work. I didn't tell the Fu family in advance. Let's talk about it later." They had just sold the pig and everyone was looking at them. It would be better to keep a low profile at this time.

Mr. Lu had no choice but to let Lu Xiang go back.

As soon as Lu Xiang returned to the Fu family, she heard the good news that her sister-in-law was pregnant!

Lu Xiang immediately went to her sister-in-law and asked, "Really?"

My eldest sister-in-law already has two sons. The eldest is seven years old and the second is five years old.

My sister-in-law hasn't had any children in these years. Plus, she's already quite old, so everyone thought she wouldn't be able to get pregnant. Who would have thought she'd have another one!

Xiao Cailian was delighted and said, "It would be great if we could have another granddaughter."

For some reason, their family only had boys. They were a bunch of rascals who rolled around in the mud all day long. Xiao Cailian was extremely envious of the fair-skinned girls from other families.

The eldest sister-in-law looked a little embarrassed: "I also hope to have a girl!" A boy and a girl make a good family.

Mrs. Fu Er and Mrs. Fu San were a little envious of their eldest sister-in-law for still having children. Having a baby at this time would allow her to rest for at least half a year. After half a year, she would have to farm again. By then, she wouldn't have to do any work even with a big belly. In total, she could have stayed comfortably for a year!

Xiao Cailian turned around and went to steam egg cakes for her eldest daughter-in-law.

Mrs. Fu Er and Mrs. Fu San were envious.

This recipe requires at least three eggs, how could you afford that?

The baby in my belly is lucky enough to be born. I am already loved before it is even born.

My eldest sister-in-law was treated with great care except for her first child. Later, when several sisters-in-law came into the family and gave birth to their second child, they didn't do much confinement.

Now it’s all good!

With someone like Fu Sansao who was capable of organizing things, there was no way this good news could be kept secret. She went out for a look and half the village knew about it.

After hearing this, many people went to find Brother Fu to congratulate him.

Brother Fu had a thick and honest expression on his face, but at this moment his face was flushed with excitement.

When I went back, I was a little bit overwhelmed. In the village, what people value most is having many children and good fortune.

Brother Fu is one of the few people in his generation who has three children.

I have three children now, it’s a beautiful thought.

The second and third children only have one child each. The fourth child just got married and has no children yet. This means that they have made the greatest contribution to the family's population growth.

After returning home, Brother Fu rarely kissed Sister Fu on the cheek.

This made Mrs. Fu beat him up. They hadn't just gotten married, so why did he do such a disgusting thing?

Behind closed doors, the eldest sister-in-law said to the eldest brother, "What shall we do?"

Brother Fu asked, "What should we do?" Our family conditions are better now than before.

After eating the meat and eggs at home, everyone's face is smooth and shiny. People say that if you want to eat good food in the village, you can go to their family.

Brother Fu continued to say to his sister-in-law, "This child came at the perfect time. Our family was poor before, and we treated you badly. Now I can give you some good nourishment, and let Mom take good care of you after the baby is born."

The eldest sister-in-law said, "That's not the case." She was a little worried. The big house only had one room. They already had two children, and it was already a bit crowded. Now with a little one, the house would be even more crowded: "There's no room!"

Their house was considered big back then, but as each of their sons got married and had children, it became too small.

The eldest brother agreed, but he couldn't bring himself to say it. After all, he was the eldest brother. "Why don't you just bear with it for now and see if we can expand our house into one!"

The sister-in-law said, "How can we expand it? Both sheds are occupied!" Now the backyard has been occupied to build a kitchen for making duck necks, and now there is no space at all.

The eldest brother didn't know what to say, and thought for a while: "We'll talk about it when the time comes!" After all, they had lived there before, and now they had a child, and if they wanted to expand, the other brothers and sisters-in-law would have some opinions.

The eldest sister-in-law usually didn't think about these things, but it was different after she had a child. Seeing that her eldest brother didn't care about anything, she felt a little worried and sighed.

Brother Fu said, "Why are you sighing? This child is here at the right time. He will definitely have a good life in the future!"

The eldest sister-in-law had to hide the worry between her brows: "Let's do this for now."

No one else knew the inner anguish of the couple. At this moment, Xiao Cailian deliberately waited for Fu Qinhui at the village entrance, waiting for him to get off work and tell him that Fu Lao Da had a child, just to stimulate him.

Soon Fu Qinhui came back.

Xiao Cailian said to Fu Qinhui, "Look at how capable your eldest brother is. Everyone thought your eldest sister-in-law was infertile, but he got another child late in the autumn."

Xiao Cailian then added, "Look at you now. You don't even have one. You're really dying of drought or flood!"

After thinking for a while, Xiao Cailian said, "I know you young people don't like to have children. Anyway, let's have one child first and think about the second one later."

Fu Qinhui didn't care: "You've been a grandmother so many times, isn't that enough? Why do you need so many children?"

Xiao Cailian said: "It's not just me who is urging you. The villagers also want to see how good-looking your future children will be!" Ever since the fourth brother married Lu Xiang, her vanity has been aroused.

Lu Xiang really made her proud.

No matter what Xiao Cailian said, she was defeated by Fu Qinhui with ease.

When Fu Qinhui returned home, Lu Xiang took the initiative to tell Fu Qinhui that her sister-in-law was pregnant, and said, "How about this, let's move out!" Lu Xiang's tone was a little expectant.
