Chapter 628: Coming Empty-Handed, Leaving with Bags



"Dongsheng, there's something I need your opinion on."

At this time, Uncle Qin spoke.

"Uncle, what's the matter?" Jia Dongsheng looked over.

"That's right."

Uncle Qin smiled and said, "They say you should kill the geese when it snows. We've raised chickens, ducks, and geese for more than four months, and it snowed a few days ago, so I planned to kill them then."

"But then the third brother mentioned that he wanted to ask you if you wanted to keep a few."

The third brother he was referring to was, of course, Jia Dongsheng's father-in-law. Jia Dongsheng turned and looked at his father-in-law: "Dad, why did you leave a few behind?"

"I was thinking that since you have the conditions now, you could raise some chickens, ducks, and geese for laying eggs."

Father Qin showed a simple smile: "Your mother is old and needs nutrition. Jingru is pregnant now and will give birth next year. If she doesn't get enough nutrition, she won't have milk to feed the baby."

"I thought you could leave behind a few chickens, ducks, and geese. They'll lay eggs next spring, which will be just the right amount of nutrition for Jingru and your mother."

As he listened, Jia Dongsheng nodded. He didn't realize that what his father-in-law said made sense.

However, he still used his thinking limited to the current environment to think about Jia Dongsheng's affairs.

According to the father-in-law, although Jia Dongsheng's living conditions are better than theirs now, it is definitely unrealistic for him to make nutritious food for his wife and mother every day.

Therefore, leaving a few chickens, ducks, and geese and eating some eggs is indeed a good way to supplement nutrition.

But he had no idea that Jia Dongsheng was very capable. Not only did he have eggs from chickens, ducks, and geese, he even had plenty of meat.

But my father-in-law means well, and he won't directly object. Besides, raising a few poultry to lay eggs is not a bad idea.

Anyway, he has enough bran to feed these things.

"Dad, what you said makes sense. Then let's keep two chickens, ducks, and geese for laying eggs."

Jia Dongsheng nodded and agreed directly, and continued: "But in this case, I will have to trouble you. You have to go to the city once a month to help me deliver the chicken eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs to the city."

"Hey, it's only a short distance, what's there to be afraid of just running a few steps?"

Uncle Qin waved his hand, indicating that it was no big deal. He then said, "Then Dongsheng, I'll kill all the chickens, ducks, and geese tomorrow and send them to the city for you the day after tomorrow."

"I'm just pulling two carts of firewood. Do you have room for them?"

"Yes, yes."

The weather outside is strong enough to freeze the chickens, ducks and geese, so Jia Dongsheng certainly has no objection to them starting to kill them now.

Not only did he not object, he was even very happy.

Although there are chickens, ducks and geese in the space, there are not many poultry except pheasants and wild ducks.

Even though he went to the pigeon market quite frequently, there were not many sellers and he couldn't buy many.

Moreover, what was taken out of the space sometimes needed a reason for its origin, and he was really not good at making up stories.

But, since it was sent by my father-in-law, no one could say anything. He could eat it however he wanted. The smell of stewed chicken filled the whole yard, and no one could say anything.

As for firewood, the more the better. There is as much space as you have firewood. You are just worried that the firewood pile will not be full, not that there will not be enough space!

The matter was settled, and Jia Dongsheng was quite happy. From today until now, only good things have happened. Today must be his lucky day.

Later, during the meal, Jia Dongsheng told his father-in-law, Qin's father, that he and his mother-in-law should go to the city to stay for two days, saying that Qin Jingru missed them.

However, my father-in-law refused, saying that the family needed someone.

Jia Dongsheng was confused. They had already separated from their son. There was nothing else in the house except the two of them. How could they be so dependent on someone else?

However, no matter how much he was persuaded, he refused to live in the city. However, he still said that after killing the chickens and ducks, he would take his mother-in-law to Jia Dongsheng, and then come back after seeing Qin Jingru.

Jia Dongsheng thought to himself that whether he could keep them at that time would depend on Qin Jingru. As a son-in-law, he had done what he could.

After dinner, Jia Dongsheng was about to say goodbye and leave.

Otherwise, if you stay any longer, it will be dark.

The sky in November can turn dark in an instant.

At this time, Aunt Qin and his mother-in-law, who had come over during dinner time, each held a bag and hung it on the handlebars of his bicycle.

It wasn't enough to just hang two or three bags on one side, so there was also a silk bag on the back seat, which was bulging with things, obviously filled with a lot of stuff.

"What are these things? Why are there so many?"

Jia Dongsheng looked at the bicycle belt that was flattened and asked curiously, "I just got some hawthorns and crabapples. What are these other things?"

"Hey, it's all good stuff."

Uncle Qin smiled and said, "It's almost November and we organized some people to go up the mountain again. We got a lot of mountain products back. We can't eat so much at home, so we brought it all back to you."

"Dongsheng, you need to make some connections at work, so give some gifts when they are due. Don't be stingy."

"Forehead......"

Well, Jia Dongsheng didn't refuse his honest and simple father-in-law, thinking to himself, "I came here empty-handed, and now I'm leaving with so many bags, I feel a little embarrassed."

It is a year of disaster now. Although Qinjiazhuang has become much better this year because of him, he doesn't believe that we can't eat so much. In a year of disaster, everything is a good thing.

There is only not enough food, not enough to eat.
