"This Grandma Liu is quite interesting. Mengmeng, I want to take a shower and wash my hair. I can't stand it anymore."
Su Xue leaned close to Gu Qingmeng and let her smell her body. She felt sour.
Before Gu Qingmeng could say anything, Aunt Pei quickly closed the door and said, "You can't take a shower, especially not your hair, or you'll get a headache. You can't open the windows, or the wind will catch in."
Gu Qingmeng didn't understand this either. Su Xue's dream of taking a bath and washing her hair was shattered by Aunt Pei's strong objection.
At the strong request of Gu Qingmeng and Su Xue, the door could be opened, but the window could not be opened because of the wind.
"Aunt San, it's so hot, will Zhuangzhuang get prickly heat?"
Looking at her godson's red little face, Gu Qingmeng felt a little worried.
"I'll put some prickly heat powder on him and let him sleep in the west room."
Su Xue: ...
So she just kept herself warm. She couldn't take a bath or wash her hair. Unable to bear torturing her son, Su Xue could only choose to torture her husband.
"Pei Weidong, come in."
Gu Qingmeng: ...
Seeing Aunt Pei carrying her godson out, she followed closely. A woman with hormonal disorders should not be messed with. One should comfort one's own wife, so it would be better for her to retreat first.
With the help of Aunt Pei, Gu Qingmeng and Pei Xiaohua quickly packed up the things they brought back from the hospital. She stewed soup and made milk powder while Pei Xiaohua washed diapers. The two worked together in perfect harmony.
The only advantage of August is that diapers dry quickly in the sun. Gu Qingmeng went out to pour water and saw Grandma Liu coming back from outside.
"Grandma Liu is back!" Gu Qingmeng greeted with a smile.
"Well, this is a pigeon. Kill it and give it to Su Yatou to replenish her body. This thing is very good for wound recovery. I won't take advantage of others."
A pigeon completely replaced their extra rent! Mrs. Liu was relieved!
"Grandma Liu, can you still buy pigeons? Thank you so much!" Gu Qingmeng's mind was full of roasted squab at the moment. She wanted to raise two pairs of pigeons in the space and decide whether to eat them or not.
The key is to enrich the space species.
"Can Grandma Liu help me buy two pairs of breeding pigeons?"
Old Mrs. Liu raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu Qingmeng twice. Not many people know the uses of pigeons these days, and this girl even knows how to breed pigeons.
She bought the pigeons from Old Man Zhou's house. He just said he wanted to sell breeding pigeons. Both parties are reliable people, so it would be nice if she could act as a matchmaker.
Gu Qingmeng thought that Grandma Liu didn't want to help buy it, so she said, "It doesn't matter if you can't, I..."
"How many pairs of breeding pigeons do you want? I'll tell you in advance, breeding pigeons are different from mine. This one costs one dollar and fifty cents, and breeding pigeons will probably cost three dollars each."
Old Mrs. Liu told the estimated price. Three dollars a piece was the asking price of Old Zhou. Of course, one has to bargain when buying things. How much can one get for each piece depends on Gu Qingmeng's bargaining ability.
"No problem, we can go buy some right here, no, let's exchange them for pigeons?"
Gu Qingmeng was happy, because from now on she would have an endless supply of pigeons and pigeon eggs.
"Let's go!"
Gu Qingmeng put down the basin, soaked the cleaned pigeons in water, and left with Grandma Liu!
After walking for about twenty minutes, she heard the sound of pigeons outside the gate.
"Is Old Man Zhou home?"
"Hey, is that Sister Liu? Why are you back again?"
The person who opened the door was a fat old man. When Gu Qingmeng and Grandma Liu walked in, they saw a row of pigeon cages on the side of the main house in the courtyard. A woman peeked out from the door of the east wing, and there was obvious disgust in her eyes when she saw them.
"Oh! This is my eldest daughter-in-law. She doesn't like me raising pigeons because she thinks it's noisy." The fat old man explained with his head down.
Gu Qingmeng didn't say anything. To be honest, if she were asked to raise pigeons at home, she wouldn't do it because they were really noisy.
"Sister Liu is here again, what's going on?"
"What could you possibly be doing here? To buy pigeons, of course. How many pairs of breeding pigeons do you have left? Pick out two good pairs for me."
Old Mrs. Liu didn't beat around the bush and directly stated her purpose.
"You want it! Of course I'll pick out the best for you. I'll give others three dollars, and I'll charge you two and a half. But don't you think pigeons are noisy?"
The fat old man looked at Gu Qingmeng. He guessed that this was the young girl he wanted to raise.
"I want it! I see there are only a few pigeons in your dovecote."
Gu Qingmeng noticed that most of the pigeon cages in a row were empty.
"These are the breeding pigeons. The others have already been exchanged. How many do you want to exchange? I'll pick them out. These four pairs are the best."
"I want them all! Can you make it cheaper?"
Grandma Liu said it was three yuan each, but now it is two yuan and fifty cents. Although it is cheaper than expected, it is still necessary to bargain.
It would be abnormal if I didn’t talk about it. Who doesn’t spend every penny carefully these days?
"You want them all!" The fat old man was surprised and said, "Two dollars and fifty cents a piece is the fair price! If you buy more, I'll give you a dollar off the total price! No more!"
"Okay, but you have to give me two cages."
Gu Qingmeng didn't expect that she could really bargain down a dollar. She saw two cages next to the pigeon cage, which were obviously used to hold pigeons.
"Okay!"
The fat old man was packing pigeons and nagging about how to raise them. He was worried that Gu Qingmeng wouldn't be able to raise them well and would kill them all!
After they left, the fat old man was still standing at the door, looking at the cage reluctantly.
Old Lady Liu looked at Gu Qingmeng and said, "Pigeons can't be kept in cages forever."
"My cousin will be home in the next two days. I'll ask him to take the baby home and let my husband raise it."
Gu Qingmeng looked at the cage. If she wanted the address, she could just come over and put the pigeon directly into the space.
After returning to the courtyard, Pei Xiaohua and Liu Fang surrounded the pigeons and fed them a handful of broken rice.
