Qiao Lian took the opportunity to pat its head. It was soft and had a big forehead. Dogs with big foreheads are smart.
Old Mrs. Qiao had already scooped out the pig feed and put it in a wooden bucket; it's cooled down now.
As soon as the food was poured into the trough, the piglets swished their tails and gathered around, eating with great relish in rows.
Mrs. Lü scattered a handful of chaff on the ground, and the old hen and the newly bought chicks and ducklings happily pecked at it.
Perhaps because of improved living standards, the old hen has started laying eggs again these past few days.
The Qiao family courtyard was filled with a lively atmosphere.
Grandma Qiao watched all this with satisfaction; this was something she had always dreamed of seeing.
This is what the love house in her dreams should look like.
Although the house hasn't been built yet, it already has that feel to it.
By now, news of the Song family selling sawdust to wealthy families in town had spread throughout the village.
People were discussing it as they passed by the Qiao family's house.
"Selling sawdust to wealthy families? Are they crazy? How could they do something like that? Are they out of their mind?"
"They said the sawdust would make their Song family rich, but now look what's happened. Several people have been detained, and they need thirty taels of silver to ransom them."
"Thirty taels?" Old Man Qiao was speechless. Wasn't this going to cause the Song family to suffer a huge financial loss?
Old Mrs. Qiao said, "Serves them right. They wanted to make money like our family, but they only came up with crooked ways."
Qiao Lian'er squeezed several pounds of mushrooms in the kitchen and put them in a small jar.
"I'll go to town first to see if the Han family will accept it and set a price."
I put another portion on a plate for everyone to try.
“It tastes good even when squeezed dry, and the Han family should be willing to take it,” Da Yong said.
"Lian'er, I'll go with you."
Lian'er is a girl, and she had that incident with Song Jiazhen a few days ago. He was worried about her walking alone on the road.
"Alright, don't let your little sister Lian'er go to town by herself. If anything happens to Lian'er, I'll hold you, her older brothers, responsible." Old Mrs. Qiao sternly reprimanded her grandsons.
Da Cheng and Xiao Meng quickly made their promises, and this scene warmed Qiao Yunni's heart.
Grandma Qiao was the best mother and the best grandmother in the world, showing absolutely no favoritism towards her grandchildren.
Thinking back to when Lian'er was in the Song family, because she was a girl, she always had no food to eat and was thin and small like a bean sprout. Qiao Yunni was grateful that she could grow up in the Qiao family now.
A series of hurried footsteps came from the doorway.
"So many members of your Qiao family here, good." Old Mrs. Song came in from the door, her fat face twitching slightly, looking fierce.
"What's the matter? What's the matter? Do you think you can just come and go as you please?" Old Mrs. Qiao picked up a wooden stick next to the earthen stove where pig feed was cooked, stood up, and blocked Old Mrs. Song's way.
Aside from the three people detained in town and Song Ruier, who had disappeared somewhere, almost all the other members of the Song family came with Old Lady Song.
Upon seeing the wooden stick, Old Lady Song lowered her guard slightly.
However, even with her hands on her hips, she still exuded an imposing aura.
“My eldest son, second son, and eldest grandson were detained by the Han family because you tried to sell wood chips in town. You have to take responsibility for this.”
"How ridiculous! Did our family tell you to take wood chips to sell?" Madam Lü walked out of the kitchen carrying a cleaver.
The Qiao family knew that the Song family would definitely not be willing to pay for it, but they never expected that it would be their responsibility.
