Because this time Wu Baoguo helped a lot.
Tao Tianyi promised.
Wait until the piglets are sold for money.
I will definitely thank him well.
Wu Baoguo believes in Tao Tianyi's character.
He said to Tao Tianyi with a smile.
"If you need any help from the pig farm in the future, just let me know."
"Uncle Wu, do you think you could work for me? I'm in need of experienced people like you."
"You don't have to work so hard every day, going out early and coming back late. Just take a morning or afternoon to come and have a look."
Wu Baoguo's ancestors were pig farmers.
He is a famous pig butcher in the surrounding villages.
Later, this industry gradually declined.
Wu Baoguo went to raise pigs.
Later, as I got older, I stopped supporting myself. Plus, I never got married, so I had no one to support me in my old age.
The village registered him as a five-guarantee household.
Tao Tianyi's suggestion.
This gave Wu Baoguo an idea.
He decided to go to work and save some money for his retirement.
…
20 days later.
Tao Yaoyao is also one month old.
The piglet has grown to 30 kilograms.
Tao Tianyi excitedly took the 51 piglets to the purchasing station.
The price is fifty cents per pound.
A piglet can be sold for 15 yuan.
Count it down.
A total of 765 yuan was sold.
This was in 1981.
It's a huge sum of money.
According to normal wage standards.
Tao Tianyi gave 40 yuan to Wang Ershuan and Chen Gousheng respectively.
Because Zhou Fu had been with him the longest and did the most work.
Tao Tianyi gave Zhou Fu 60 yuan.
Wu Baoguo's 60 yuan was not lost either.
The remaining 565 yuan.
That is the money that Tao Tianyi can take home.
Tao Tianyi decided to bring back two big sows.
Calculated based on the price of 180 yuan per piece.
He spent 360 yuan to purchase goods from the purchasing station.
So, only 205 yuan is left for the family.
Yunjinshu said.
"This is a lot of winnings, equivalent to three months of Dad's pension."
"Once the pig farm is big enough, we will definitely make more money than we do now."
"Tianyi, do whatever you want to do. I support you."
"We won't waste the remaining money. Yaoyao still needs to go to school, so we'll save it for her."
Tao Tianyi nodded.
"Jinshu, don't worry, I will definitely give our family a good life."
"The two sows that came back haven't been pregnant yet."
"We have five sows at home now, and the breeding period of a sow is five years."
"In the next four years, as long as we can produce more piglets, we can make money."
"Um!"
At noon that day.
The whole family is celebrating Tao Yaoyao's full moon.
Chen Shuqin went to the state-owned shopping mall in advance to buy nice clothes for Tao Yaoyao.
I also specially used the saved white flour to steam flower buns.
Placed next to Tao Yaoyao.
Chen Shuqin said as she arranged the items.
"The magpie is calling on the tree branch, the auspicious clouds are floating, the peach trees are blooming in my home, and the blessings are coming soon!"
Finished.
Chen Shuqin took out a small silver lock.
Hanging on Tao Yaoyao's neck.
Yun Jinshu was stunned.
"Mom, this silver lock is very expensive, right?"
Chen Shuqin said with a smile.
"This small silver lock weighs 20 grams in total. It's sold at a dollar per gram in state-owned supermarkets."
"Mom, this is too expensive! I could buy 10 sets of clothes with this!"
"It's okay! Yaoyao's full moon is a big day. Although our family is not very wealthy, we can't let Yaoyao suffer any loss."
After saying this, Chen Shuqin took out a box wrapped in red cloth.
Open it carefully.
Inside was a pair of silver bracelets worn by adults.
"This bracelet was my dowry."
"Give it to Yaoyao, so she can wear it when she gets married."
"Jinshu, put it away carefully."
Yun Jinshu immediately refused.
"Mom, your dowry is so precious, how can you give it away?"
"It's okay. It's not a gift to an outsider. Just accept it."
Yun Jinshu held the box.
I feel very warm in my heart.
Tao Yaoyao also laughed happily.
【Ah! Grandma really loves me! 】
In 1981, the idea of favoring sons over daughters was still very serious.
[Additionally, due to material shortages, most people were not very wealthy, so on occasions like the Full Moon Banquet, they would simply go through the motions or simply skip it altogether!]
Grandma even spent 20 yuan to buy me a longevity lock and gave me her treasured dowry!
Although silver isn't considered valuable jewelry today, my grandmother's love is more precious than gold!
So, when I grow up and start working, I must be filial to my grandparents and let them enjoy the good life with me!
[Just wait and see, I, Tao Yaoyao, will definitely be an excellent doctor! ]
Listen to Tao Yaoyao's voice.
Chen Shuqin felt very sweet in her heart.
This little granddaughter is not loved in vain.
This day.
Yun Jinshu also finished her confinement.
And now it is April.
The weather has warmed up.
Chen Shuqin asked Yun Jinshu to take the money and tickets.
Go shopping in state-owned shopping malls.
"When family was tight, we wouldn't go to state-owned shopping malls."
"Now that Tianyi has made some money and his family has tickets, you can go buy some clothes you like."
"Women, you can't stop dressing up just because you have a baby. When you go out to meet people, you always have to be generous and decent."
"You didn't have any decent jewelry when you and Tianyi got married. Why not buy a pair of silver bracelets? They'll look nice on you."
"Mom, I won't buy the silver bracelet. Tianyi's pig farm will need money in the future, Yaoyao's education will also require money, and you and Dad will also need money for retirement."
“I want to save more.”
"Your father and I spend enough from his salary, and we can still save some to support you. Don't worry about us, think more about yourself."
"Um!"
Yun Jinshu was very moved after hearing this.
Tao Yaoyao was even more flattered with all kinds of flattery.
[Oh my god, the fairy grandma! The fairy grandma! ]
[You have to remember, this was 1981. Such an open-minded mother-in-law is rare, not only in this era, but even in the modern world where I live!]
[Hehehe! Some mothers-in-law are so afraid of their daughters-in-law spending their sons' money that they'll complain for ages if they spend even a dime! They'll even be disgusted if they eat a bite of braised pork! Not to mention giving their daughters-in-law any money, and certainly not telling them to think more about themselves! Invest in yourself and treat yourself better!]
[Look, my amazing grandmother in the 80s could easily outsmart those scumbag grandmothers of today!]
