It was past 1 p.m. when I returned to the county town from the pork factory.
Fang Jie and Chu Chun had already gone back, so Fang Yan didn't go looking for them again.
Thinking that Section Chief Zheng and the others would probably not be able to come up with a result until around four or five in the afternoon, and by the time they came to the village to find him and finished talking, it would be almost dinner time.
They sincerely came to us for cooperation; we couldn't just let them leave hungry at that time.
Fang Yan, familiar with the area, strolled around the streets and alleys.
When she came out after walking around, both her hands were full of things.
Today, she unexpectedly ran into someone selling rabbits.
In the southern regions, very few people eat rabbits.
This family started raising a pair of rabbits by chance, and then discovered that the rabbits were breeding too fast and had become an infestation. Since they couldn't eat them all, they decided to sell them.
Because people don't eat much rabbit meat, none of his five fat and large rabbits were sold.
Fang Yan bought it and asked the seller to help her process the rabbit.
Although she loves cooking, she dares not slaughter live poultry.
She carefully stored the five intact rabbit skins, and would teach Fang Jie how to process them at a later time.
Then give these five pieces of leather to him to process.
Fang Yan went to the new market to find the young man who drove the electric tricycle last time, and took his tricycle back to the village.
Although Fang Yaojin was imprisoned, the Fang family members were also thoroughly subdued by her.
But Zhang Laowu is still out there causing trouble.
When she's alone, Fang Yan will still be careful.
After hiring his electric tricycle for half a day that time, I used it several more times and confirmed that this young man was reliable.
So when she was alone, Fang Yan usually took his tricycle back to the village.
The young man had just accepted the order and went out.
However, the electric tricycle is very fast.
He returned shortly afterward.
"Sister, are you going back to the village?" The young man was also very happy to see Fang Yan.
"Okay, let's go to Eagle Street first, load up the rice, and then go back," Fang Yan said.
When the family divided their property, Zhang Laowu did not give her any land.
After Fang Jie and Zhu Xiuhua separated from the Fang family, they also lost their land.
So the family of four usually has to buy all the rice they eat.
Fang Yan usually buys from villagers.
However, the villagers mainly farm to support their own families.
Under this premise, only those that are left over will be put up for sale.
So there aren't actually many that can be sold.
Recently, everyone has been busy harvesting late rice, which is the time when food is scarce and villagers have no extra grain to sell.
That's why she buys rice outside.
Every time Fang Yan took the tricycle back, in addition to paying the fare, she would also share some food that she had never seen before in the market with him. The young man was also exceptionally devoted to Fang Yan.
When it came to moving the rice, Fang Yan didn't have to lift a finger; she took care of everything perfectly.
"Mommy! Mommy!"
Lying on the ground, whether catching ants or crickets, I don't know. Hearing the sound of the tricycle, he looked up and saw Fang Yan returning. The little guy was so happy that he forgot about the ants and ran over to her.
In the morning, Fang Yan had to put in quite a bit of effort to persuade the little guy not to come along.
Upon seeing Fang Yan, the little guy was incredibly excited, as if he hadn't seen her for years.
Zhu Xiuhua and the others only ran out of the house when they heard Xiaoyuzai's voice. They were all surprised and astonished. "Didn't you say you might be back very late tonight? Why are you back so early?"
Amidst their surprise, it wasn't hard to hear their worry.
Is it because the market in the neighboring county is difficult to expand into? Have you run into a wall?
Fang Yan hugged Xiaoyuzai, whom she hadn't seen for half a day, and handed the young man the fare, along with a few packets of seaweed crackers. "Thank you for today."
"I should thank you, sister." The young man waved the biscuits and the fare in his hand.
When Fang Yan rode in his tricycle for the first time, she learned that he was married. Thinking that her husband must be older than her, the young man called her "sister-in-law" according to the local custom.
Later, I don't know when, he changed his address to her and started calling her "sister".
After the young man left, Fang Jie took the initiative to carry the rice into the kitchen.
Fang Yan carried Xiaoyuzai and Zhu Xiuhua into the house, saying as they walked, "We're so lucky, it's Section Chief Zheng from the shopping mall in the next county..."
She recounted to them what had happened that morning.
"You're really lucky, kid!"
After hearing this, Zhu Xiuhua couldn't help but sigh.
Fang Jie, however, thought of something else: "If we also want to run the braised food business in the neighboring county, can we manage with just a few of us?"
That's right, they are busy from morning till night every day, and they hardly have any free time.
"There's not much work to do in the fields now. We can ask the village aunties and grandmas to help with tasks like washing pig intestines."
Fang Yan had already considered the issues that Fang Jie was worried about.
Add to that the sales volume in another market, and the few people in the family definitely can't handle it all on their own.
"Third Aunt, if Section Chief Zheng comes over tonight, will he have to eat here?"
Chu Chun noticed this problem very carefully: "We didn't buy any groceries when we came back today."
They figured that since Fang Yan wasn't home today, they would just fry a few salted fish and eat them with some vegetables from the garden.
So after the tweets were posted, no one suggested going grocery shopping.
Even before leaving, Fang Yan told them not to be stingy and to buy whatever they wanted to eat at the market. As for pork, they could just cut some from the delivered goods and stir-fry it.
They indeed outwardly complied but inwardly defied their word.
Fortunately, she knew this would happen, so she went to buy groceries on purpose.
"I've already bought it," Fang Yan said, pointing to a woven bag that Fang Jie had placed at the entrance of the kitchen.
"How did your sales go this morning?" After finally finishing her own story, Fang Yan had time to ask them if their morning stall business went smoothly.
"Mom, Grandma, Auntie, Auntie, Uncle, and Grandpa all asked me, 'Where did your mom go?'"
As soon as she asked about it, Little Fish got excited and raised his little hand, saying excitedly.
Children are especially adorable at this time.
Fang Yan asked him, "So what did you say?"
I told her, "Mom's busy. She'll be back when she's done."
"Little Fish is awesome!"
Fang Yan gave him a big thumbs up.
She hadn't expected anyone to ask Little Fish about herself, so she hadn't taught him beforehand.
I didn't expect the little guy to be so smart.
"I was a little nervous at first, but after selling a few copies, I suddenly realized that there was nothing to be nervous about, and then everything went smoothly after that."
I'm very happy in early spring.
You should know...
