"Zhou Laoyao also said that no matter which company receives the goods from Lao Xiong's family, he will not accept them once he finds out." He glanced at Zhou Huaijin and said, "What's the matter? Do you want to receive the goods from Lao Xiong's family?"
I heard that he started selling truffles yesterday. Damn it, when did he become so close to Zhou Laoya?
Zhou Huaijin looked at him with some jealousy, "I didn't hear Zhou Laoya mention it when we went to sell truffles yesterday. How did you know?"
Xu Hongbing picked up a piece of truffle and said, "When I went to sell truffles, I happened to meet Mrs. Xiong... You and Zhou Laoyao are from the same family, so don't let me down!"
"I need you to teach me!" Zhou Huaijin said and walked towards the place where he dug truffles.
Wu Caixiang asked in a low voice: "Boss, what did he say?"
"He said..." Zhou Huaijin complained, "Now that's it! I told you last night not to take her. What are you going to do with something that costs several dollars?"
First, second and third grade are only 40 cents a pound, and there are 4 pounds of lower grade goods as a bonus. Only a fool would want them.
"You bastard, don't take advantage of this opportunity!" Wu Caixiang glared at him, "Why don't you think that we can sell it for more than ten dollars if we buy it for a few dollars? It was pitch black when she came, so no one would know."
Zhou Huaijin thought of the feud between Zhou Laoyao and the Xiong family, and felt uneasy. He thought something would happen sooner or later. "If she sends it again tonight, don't accept it."
Wu Caixiang rolled her eyes at him, "What are you afraid of? I'm his aunt, is he really not going to accept me?"
Zhou Huaijin said angrily: "Mom, I want to ask you, are you closer to me, my aunt or my eldest father? You didn't go to Zhou Laoyao's house yesterday and saw that he even slapped Dachunbo in the face!"
Wu Caixiang didn't care after hearing this. "I know why they want to slap Zhou Dachun in the face. Ever since Chen Guilan and her husband took Zhou Yumei back to Funiu, Li Yinfu and her mother-in-law have been saying bad things about her outside.
Chen Guilan and her husband have only one daughter, Yumei. Zhou Laoyao and his brothers have only one sister. She was kicked out by her husband's family just after she gave birth to a baby. How could they not feel sorry for her? I have to endure a slap in the face. If it were me, I would not accept his family's goods! "
She looked at her two sons proudly as she spoke, "Don't worry, I have been speaking for Yumei all this time, they won't deny me face."
After hearing this, Zhou Huaijin and his brother felt that what she said made sense. "Even if you want to take it back, you have to be careful and never let them know. Zhou Laoyao is a fool with a weird temper."
Wu Caixiang curled her lips, "He's a wealthy man now, so of course he has a bad temper! When will you be as capable as him? I'll treat you like an immortal and serve you!"
Brother Zhou Huaijin: "..."
Over there, Xu Hongbing had been secretly keeping an eye on the mother and her son. "Mom, I think the truffles from the Xiong family were probably collected by Zhou Huaijin's family."
Qian Chunhua glanced at them and said, "Go down the mountain and quietly tell Zhou Laoyao to be careful. If the Xiong family has evil intentions, it will be troublesome."
Xu Hongbing nodded. "You're right. Xiong Laoer even dared to rob a tractor. What else can't they do?"
…
After Zhou Huaian and Zhou Yiding handed the dishes to Huang Yongcai, they brought him a basket full of fresh truffles, "Brother Huang, these are all washed and dried, you can use them to make wine!"
Huang Yongcai patted him happily after seeing it, "Oh! I also want you to get me a few pounds of this to make a few jars of wine to sell in the tofu shop!"
Zhou Huaan smiled and said, "I saw Douhua Village selling wine for soaking. I think some people would like this."
Huang Yongcai winked and said, "There are many more I like!"
"Haha!" All three of them laughed.
After leaving Douhuazhuang, Zhou Huaian and his companion went to Deshengtang. The 950 kilograms of truffles they sent this time were sold for a total of 760 yuan.
Wang Zhen also helped to find the steel plates and iron sheets, and asked someone to make more than a dozen baking trays, which cost a total of one hundred and twenty yuan.
He grabbed a few truffles that were smaller than eggs from the basket and handed them to him. "Doctor Wang, take a look. There are a lot of truffles of this size. I brought a few pounds of dried goods. Can you take them over and show them to them?"
Wang Zhen took it and sniffed it. "In fact, as long as they are ripe, they taste the same regardless of size. How about this, I'll keep it for now, and I'll send it over together with the big heads when you bring them over tomorrow."
"Great!" Zhou Huaian held out the basket to him, "I'm leaving first. I still need to buy a few bags of cement and bring some pork back for the folks."
Wang Zhen smiled and said, "It seems that after digging truffles and selling them, everyone is willing to spend some money on meat!"
Zhou Huaian took out the list and said, "Look, hundreds of households all want the big fat piece of meat!"
"The big fat meat is delicious." Wang Zhen said, and suddenly remembered that someone came to ask about collecting truffles. "Yesterday, a young man about the same height as Yiding, with a yellowish skin, came to ask about collecting truffles. Is he from your village?"
Zhou Huaian and Zhou Yiding looked at each other and said, "It should be the youngest child of the Xiong family. This time he is collecting truffles..."
Wang Zhen said after hearing this: "You are right! As a person, if you treat me well, then I will treat you well. If you treat me badly, I will treat you the same way. We are not saints if we sacrifice ourselves to help others."
Zhou Huaian thought he would persuade him to keep quiet, but after hearing what he said, he looked at him with stars in his eyes, "I really like you so much, Doctor Xiao Wang!"
"Don't!" Wang Zhen waved his hands quickly, "Don't like me, my wife will be jealous if she knows."
Zhou Yiding smiled and said, "Doctor Xiao Wang, your wife is also a doctor?"
"I don't know either!" Wang Zhen shrugged and spread his hands. "He's still being raised at my mother-in-law's house!"
Zhou Huaian: "Don't panic, there are many good girls waiting in line to marry you."
Wang Zhen nodded honestly, "There are many people who come to my house to act as matchmakers, but the key is that it's hard to find someone who can talk you into it."
"Take your time to look for a nice and solid money basket."
Wang Zhen was stunned for a moment before he understood what he meant. He smiled and said, "That's what I planned too."
The three of them chatted for a while, and then Doctor Wang came to call for a patient to get medicine before leaving.
"Ding Ding Cat, let's go to the meat stall first!"
"That's great!" Zhou Yiding thought of something, "Youngest brother, who do you think Big Bear's wife will sell the truffles to?"
Zhou Huaian thought for a moment, "Maybe it was sold to one of the families in Zhou Sufang's family?"
Zhou Yiding: "Xu Hongbing has a lot of information. Let's ask him to find out when we get back."
The two men walked to the vegetable market, and Zhou Huaian saw tangerines and oranges for sale, so he weighed ten kilograms and carried them to the meat stall.
Wang Jianjun, who was selling eels, saw the two people coming and waved with a smile, "Youngest brother, can we still get eels in the village?"
Zhou Huaian stepped forward and said, "I didn't notice it. It's so cold, there shouldn't be many people going out to catch eels."
Ever since the price of eels dropped, the Zhou family stopped buying eels and gave them to Ning An to sell.
Wang Jianjun smiled and handed cigarettes to the two men, "Please collect some for me when you have time."
"There are some things at home, so maybe I won't be able to do it until the beginning of next spring. If you can't wait, I can ask for you."
"Forget it then." Wang Jianjun took the orange he handed over and said, "Come in and sit for a while?
Zhou Huaian smiled and said, "No, I still have to go buy meat for the villagers. Come to my place when you have time!"
"Great!" Wang Jianjun smiled and sat back at the stall.
As soon as I walked to the meat stall, the familiar stall owner greeted me with a smile, "Brother, look how clean my pig intestines are today, would you like to buy one for me?"
Zhou Yiding was tempted by the fat pig head on the stall, "Youngest, let's buy a pig head and some pig intestines to stew at home."
"Okay!" Zhou Huaian poked the rib meat which was still more than two fingers thick and handed him the bill. "Take a look. If the price is right, I'll buy it from you."
The stall owner saw three lists with a string of names written in a haphazard manner, followed by the weight. They all wanted ribs, which added up to at least two hundred pounds.
"Can I charge you 1.2 yuan per pound?" He excitedly picked up a slab of pork from under the stall, "Brother, I killed two pigs today and both of them were fat more than two fingers thick. You want so much rib meat, I'm not bragging, but I have the most suitable."
Zhou Huaian took a look and handed him the pork chop. "Give me a few more shanks. Also weigh me a set of pig intestines, a pig head, and ten pounds of pork chop."
"I brought these ribs for the villagers. You must weigh them fully, otherwise I will have a hard time reporting to you. It is best to write the weight on the skin after weighing."
"Yes, yes!" The stall owner happily picked up the shank bone and gave it to him, and also gave him the pig lungs that were placed beside it, "The pig lungs are also good if you wash them and stew them with radishes. I'll give them to you as well."
"Thank you!"
The two men stood beside the meat stall and watched the stall owner cut the meat one by one according to the order. They helped weigh the meat and wrote down the weight. They waited for more than half an hour before the meat was cut.
After paying the bill, Zhou Yiding mentioned Jiabei, "Youngest brother, maybe from today on, your family will have to help everyone bring meat every day."
Zhou Huaian thought it was entirely possible. "We're too far from town. Otherwise, we can find a butcher to set up a stall and sell meat."
The two men carried the pork back to Deshengtang and loaded the steel plates and baking trays onto the tractor. They then went to the cement factory and bought ten bags of cement before heading back.
When Zhou Huaian got home, he saw that the foundations of the front and back walls had been built and the construction of the front and back walls had already begun.
A door has been removed from the wall of my house near the backyard.
When Zhou's father saw him coming back, he asked, "Did you buy the cement?"
"I bought it!" Zhou Huaian kicked the cement bag on the ground and asked, "Who borrowed it from?"
"Ye Laoyao's family, you give him four packs."
Zhou Huaian didn't want to see Li Chuntao, the White Bone Demon, "Ask your third brother to send it to him." After he said that, he picked up his backpack and went back home through the opened hole in the wall.
"So many problems!" Zhou's father muttered and went to call Zhou Laosan.
Zhou Yiding teased Zhou Huaian and asked, "Are you afraid that the White Bone Demon will eat your flesh?"
"Tsk~" Zhou Huaian rolled his eyes at him, "If you're not disgusting, then go ahead!"
Zhou Yiding laughed, "The White Bone Demon is too scary, but the King of the Kingdom of Women is more like it."
Zhang Xiuxiang saw the two people coming in with their bags on their backs, "What delicious food did you two buy?"
Zhou Yiding put down the pig's back and took out the pig's head and intestines, "...sister-in-law will make braised meat for us."
Zhang Xiuxiang quickly took a porcelain bowl to catch the pig intestines, "Okay, while we have some free time in the morning, quickly take them out, clean them up, and braise them for dinner."
Zhou Huaian grabbed some oranges and tangerines and put them on the low table. "Second sister-in-law, where is Chunyan?"
"Weidong came and helped to make truffle wine in the wing room. He also brought some yellow mud to help seal the wine jar. Chunyan and Grandpa helped in the front yard." (End of this chapter)
