Chapter 23 Killing Pigs and Selling Meat (2/2)

Someone at the scene couldn't stand it anymore and asked, "Youfu, are the rumors these days true? Did your parents really say that the third brother's son was adopted by you?"

Qiao Youfu nodded honestly and said in a depressed mood, "Yes, they kept saying that the family had no money and that marrying a wife would cost money. I said that I wanted to separate the family and save money myself, but they refused. They also said that not separating the family was for my own good and asked me to work hard. They said that they had already discussed it with the third brother and his wife and decided to adopt the third brother's son to me."

An uncle named Qiao sighed, "Hey, what kind of thing did Jiuwang do?"

Aunt Niu quickly jumped out to fan the flames, "Do you even need to ask? The people from Lijiagou have all come to visit, but the third brother and his wife don't know anything about this. Qiao Jiuwang and Lei Honghua are reluctant to pay for Youfu to marry a wife, and they are also reluctant to let this laborer go, so they just deceived him and delayed his life."

"Hey, he got married for the second time and both of his sons found wives. His own sons have never touched a woman's hand at this age, so he has nothing wrong."

"Aunt Niu, when Lei Honghua and Old Man Qiao were together, their two sons were already strong. If it weren't for these two old oxen, how could Old Man Qiao raise two sons and one daughter with such great wealth?"

"That's right. I heard that the fourth son of their family spent three hundred on his temporary marriage last year. The year before last, the third son of their family married Xiao Ping, and he took a hundred for the betrothal gift, and also bought new clothes and built a new wardrobe. If you add up all the scattered expenses, it will be at least one hundred and thirty or fourteen hundred. If Old Qiaotou relies on this money alone, he will die of exhaustion and still not be able to save it."

"Before, the brothers Youfu and Youcai were the ones who got the highest points in the team. Ah Fang was also a capable person, always getting 10 points. Even Jiang Xin could earn 7 or 8 points.

The family had no rest all year round, but when the grain was distributed at the end of the year, the Qiao family would always have some money left over. Moreover, during the slack season, there was always a time when the two brothers did not sign up to build reservoirs or roads. The money that was taken back is still in Lei Honghua's hands. ”

"Hey, that's why you can't be too honest. You work so hard and risk your life, but in the end you'll still be a bachelor."

Qiao Youfu lowered his head in embarrassment. For a man, these three words "old bachelor" were really hurtful to his self-esteem.

Although there was a dramatic element to it, the embarrassment and awkwardness were real.

Seeing that the effect had been achieved, Qiao Jiangxin said with a firm face, "Uncle, didn't Master Gang ask us to marry her ourselves? Let's do it!"

"You and my father have worked for our family for nearly thirty years. You have a share of everything in this family. Let's marry with our share."

Qiao Jiangxin waved his hand, "Qian, go home, kill the pigs, and sell the food!"

Qiao Youfu and Qiao Youcai's eyes lit up. Lei Honghua and Qiao Jiuwang followed them to the health center. In addition, they had to explain the adoption matter to the people from the Li family, so they probably wouldn't be back for a short time.

There was no one at home at that time, and they still stood on the moral high ground.

The reason why Lei Honghua and Qiao Jiuwang can control them brothers is because they have nothing, right?

If I had money...

At the clinic, Qiao Jianhua rushed to the clinic holding his wife, and Qiao Jiuwang and his wife and Li Sanfa and his wife followed closely behind.

In Gaoshi Village, the Qiao Youfu brothers followed Qiao Jiangxin's instructions and went to the village butcher to borrow a butcher knife to kill pigs.

Qiao Jiangxin directly announced that she would sell pork under the big tree at the end of the village later. They were all from the same village and would be sold for 6.5 yuan per pound.

It was the autumn harvest season, and everyone was short of oil and water. In addition, the price of pork was not only a little higher than before, but also difficult to buy.

At 6.5 yuan per pound, it is much cheaper than the current market price, and many people are eager to buy it.

Before the pigs were slaughtered, almost half of the village knew that the Qiao family was going to sell pork under the big locust tree.

Some children who stayed at home to look after the house, thinking of pork, all ran to the field to look for adults, shouting that the Qiao family had slaughtered a pig and was selling it for only 6.5 yuan per catty.
