Lu Zhenfeng angrily said to his son: "You speak as if you can control your wife."
Lu Heng: ...
"Men should stay out of women's business."
Lu Zhenfeng finally said this, hugged his eldest grandson and lay down, humming a little tune for him.
Lu Heng looked at his dear's back, and felt relaxed and sunny all over.
It's even more comfortable and relaxed than before I was demoted.
He couldn't help but curl his lips.
Grandpa is right, Qingqing is the lucky star of their family...
With Qingqing, even the "hard days" of being sent down to the countryside were so enjoyable, even happier than when he was in Beijing.
Dinner was really shredded pork noodles.
The shredded pork in Qiao Qingqing's bowl and the shredded pork in Lu Heng's bowl were the same, and there was a lot of them.
The others only had seven or eight strips of meat.
Seeing this, Qiao Qingqing fried another egg for each person.
Now, the bowl of shredded pork noodles is rich in ingredients and extremely tempting.
The old man ate noodles with gusto, and recalled with his younger generations the hard times when he joined the army. He said that they had no food at that time and were so hungry that they pulled out their belts and cooked them...
But the more Mr. Lu talked about such past events, the more miserable the Lu family's current situation seemed.
Although they no longer have to worry about food and clothing under the care of Qiao Qingqing, based on the old man's experiences in the past, his current outcome is not what he deserves as a veteran.
The old man gradually felt bored and stopped talking.
It wasn't until Qiao Qingqing brought up a new topic that the atmosphere became lively again.
…
Since she had an appointment to do a transaction on the black market, Qiao Qingqing went into the city again the next day.
This time she did not go to Sun Zhong's house. Instead, she went to the black market in the east of the city and bought a pair of big geese that the man brought, and then quickly hurried home.
She took the two geese home openly and urged Lu Heng to give her a small area in the yard to raise the geese.
The geese need to go into the water, so Qiao Qingqing can only let them roam freely.
But if this happens, the chickens at home will have to be eaten quickly, otherwise the number of poultry raised at home will exceed the number that can be raised.
Using this as an excuse, Qiao Qingqing killed another rooster that afternoon.
Big Rooster: Do you have a grudge against the male?
Qiao Qingqing: I'm sorry, it's your fault that you can't lay eggs.
Shi Meiyun found the big goose quite new. She used to live in a big city where raising poultry was not allowed. When she was a child, her family was well off but they didn't raise poultry. They just bought them when they wanted to eat them. She had only seen big geese on the dining table but had never seen a live goose.
Therefore, Shi Meijun stared at the big goose while holding her little grandson.
The more she looked, the more puzzled she became. "I don't think anyone in the village raises geese. Why is that?"
"Geese are not easy to raise, and they eat a lot, so raising them requires a lot of food. So if we sell them privately, we'll lose money if the price is too low. But if we want to avoid losing money, the price we offer will be too expensive for people in our small town. If we sell them in the county town, we'll have to travel a long way... In short, it's not as convenient as raising chickens."
Goose eggs are good things, but such big goose eggs are often expensive, so few people in the countryside can afford them.
Eating at home is too luxurious.
I simply don't want to keep it anymore.
Only those families who live close to the county town or have other convenient conditions will raise geese.
For example, if the village has a natural forage field for raising geese, which can save food at home, I believe that under such circumstances, more people will raise geese.
Qiao Qingqing looked at the two geese with a longing expression: "Let the geese hatch goslings first, and then let them lay eggs. Then we will have plenty of goose eggs to eat in the future, and we can even eat goose stewed in an iron pot during the New Year."
