Chapter 449
Tang Yue originally wanted to catch a few chickens from the space, but since her mother-in-law had already told her to go to the village to buy them, if she didn't buy them, if she was asked where the chickens came from, she would have a hard time finding an excuse.
껩늀 agreed, but it was up to her to decide how much to buy. The chickens raised in the space tasted better and were more nutritious, so it would be better to buy a few outside and take a few out of the space. This way, they would be harder for 껩늀 to find if mixed in.
"Okay, do you want to bring anything else?"
Mother Zhao thought about it and decided there was nothing to buy, and her daughter-in-law was pregnant. She didn't dare to let her carry so many things for fear that something might get bumped into.
"I don't have anything to bring with me. Just be careful about your safety."
"Got it. I'll pay attention to it."
Tang Yue looked at her mother-in-law and two aunts who were all worried. She thought they were overthinking. How could she be so fragile? Would she fall down easily?
"Jiubao, Liubao, Qibao, come on, let's go out and play with mom."
Two-year-old children are naughty and playful. I am thinking of sending them to kindergarten after the Chinese New Year next year, where they will have older brothers and sisters to look after them, and I can concentrate on taking care of the little ones in my belly.
"Let's go, let's go play."
"Mom, I'll lead you."
Liubao and Qibao had already run to the front. Looking at Xiaobao who was holding their hands, they didn't expect him to be so attentive. He has so many things to worry about at such a young age.
"Okay, hold mom's hand and go. Is there anything you want to eat? I'll buy some more later."
"Mom, I want some candy."
꾉Bao has a special liking for the sugar of this era. In the interstellar era, sugar was artificially synthesized. How could it be as good as it is now? All food is native, and even candies are particularly delicious.
Tang Yue knew what was going on when she heard it. It seemed that her son had a miserable life in his previous life. She felt a little sad in her heart, so she waved her hand and agreed directly.
"Okay, wait a minute and mom will buy some more so that I can eat together with my brothers and sisters. Everyone will have a share."
When 꾉宝 heard that her mother agreed, she was very happy. She said that what made 꾉宝 most satisfied after being reborn in this era was that the food she ate was very healthy and did not have all kinds of strange tastes.
I know that the fruits produced by plants in the interstellar age have various flavors. You have no idea what they taste like unless you put them in your mouth. I really like this world.
"Mom, hurry up, you're too slow."
Seeing Liubao and Qibao shouting in front, Tang Yue didn't say much, and directly led Xiaobao forward. Fortunately, because Liubao and Qibao were waiting, they caught up after a while.
When they were brought to the village, the villagers were no longer surprised by those strange and unfamiliar faces, but they would not relax their vigilance, knowing that there were many child traffickers outside, so there would always be one or two old men and women sitting at the entrance of the village watching the way into the village.
There were still people holding tools and working on something. Tang Yue knew this well. After all, in the countryside before, those old men and women liked to sit under big trees. In fact, they were there to look after the children in the village to prevent any naughty ones from never coming back.
The triplets walked over curiously, wanting to see what the old men and women were doing. As soon as they walked in front of them, everyone's eyes became friendlier. They thought they liked children more, especially such cute and good-looking children. Few people would remain indifferent.
"Grandpa and grandma, is there any meat to exchange in the village today?"
Seeing Tang Yue's big belly, I guess she's craving for meat because of pregnancy. "Little girl, the weather is bad now, so they won't kill pigs in advance. Usually they will kill a pig at a fixed time. They should kill one at the end of the month. You can come and buy it then. I think it should be available by then."
Tang Yue really didn't expect that the old lady would actually love her little girl. She was already a mother of several children and was pregnant now. But considering the old lady's age, loving her little girl didn't seem like a big deal.
"Thank you, grandma. Come back to see me at the end of the month. We'll go to the store over there to exchange some things, and then we can talk again."
The old lady had lost several teeth. When she heard them going to change things, she nodded and smiled as she hurried over. She said she could talk about it when they came back. It was okay.
After Tang Yue said goodbye, she took the children to the store. Halfway through the journey, she thought about the age of the old lady. She should be 80 years old, but she looked so kind. It was a little hard to believe. However, her appearance seemed to have nothing to do with her.
Holding the three children, I walked slowly to the store. I was not in a hurry at all. I just treated it as a stroll.
When I came to the store, I found that there were some salted fish for sale. I guess it’s because fresh fish are hard to sell and they are worried that they will go bad, so they make them into salted fish so that they can be kept for a longer time. The villagers are still very smart.
"Comrade, I want to order a few more hens from you to eat during my confinement. Can you help deliver them?"
The one who was keeping the shop was the captain's wife. The things she sold were considered collective property of the village. Seeing that Tang Yue was pregnant with a big belly and had three children beside her, she nodded in agreement.
"Okay, how much do you want to buy?"
Seeing that she asked directly how many there were, Tang Yue thought that there should be a lot of chickens in the village, and it was even possible that the village had a collective chicken farm. It seemed that the captain of this brigade was really smart.
Thinking about the large number of people at home, I can’t eat it all by myself. One chicken can be eaten by the whole family in one meal, so why not buy a few more?
"Comrade, I want to buy 30! There are many people in my family, one chicken a day is enough. 30 chickens are just enough for a month. I also want to buy 60 eggs."
I had originally thought of asking her to pick out hens that could lay eggs, so that if she couldn't finish them, she could keep them at home. But then I thought that most hens would be sold when they were no longer able to lay eggs, so that in the future she could come here to buy eggs.
The captain's wife didn't expect that someone would come to buy so many chickens. Judging from her clothes, she should be well off. She fed her children well and they were all plump. It was obvious that she was not short of money.
"Okay, sister, wait a minute and I'll take you back. Where do you live? Do you live in the army? Sister, I can take a look at the others. Is there anything you need?"
At first glance, she looked like a military family member, so of course no matter where I guessed she lived, I would always ask her in advance.
