Chapter 38 Harvest, the Wolf is Coming



"Brother Daniu." Tang Can heard the voice and walked out of the house.

Zhao Daniu smiled innocently, took out a small cloth bag from his pocket and handed it to him, "This is the money from today's sales. Check it and see if there is any problem."

"Okay." Tang Shen opened the cloth bag, and inside was a thick stack of scattered coins, some of which were one or two cents, and some were even one, two, and five cents.

He was stunned for a moment, then asked Zhao Daniu in confusion: "Brother Daniu, why..."

"Brother Chen couldn't buy that much pork, so he only took 50 kilograms. I took the rest to the market to sell. It took some time, but I sold them all. The money is all here. I sold it at 90 cents per kilogram." Zhao Daniu explained a little embarrassedly.

Tang Shen immediately understood.

Looking at Zhao Daniu's tired face, one could tell that he had been selling wild boar meat in the town for such a long time since he went out during the day. It must have taken him a lot of effort to sell it all.

Tang Shen immediately took out two twenty-yuan bills from the stack of money and handed them over, "Brother Daniu, please accept this money."

"No, that won't work. Didn't we agree to pay you on a monthly basis? I can't take any more money from you." Zhao Daniu quickly waved his hand to refuse.

Qin Zijin walked out of the kitchen, wiped her hands, and after hearing the conversation between the two, she strode forward, grabbed the twenty yuan, and stuffed it into Zhao Daniu's hand. "Just take it if I tell you to. The money we talked about at the beginning only counts for your help in delivering the goods to Chef Chen, not for your help in setting up the stall to sell meat. If you don't accept it, then I won't dare ask you to help me with work again in the future."

Zhao Daniu was in a dilemma for a moment. He didn't want to accept the money, but he also didn't want to lose his job.

After all, the income from this job is an important source of income for my son Zhao Gang's schooling.

As the children grew up, they needed money everywhere, and the income of the couple was simply not enough.

"Brother Daniu, just keep it. This is hard-earned money and you deserve it. Don't feel embarrassed." Qin Zijin looked at Zhao Daniu's conflicted look and advised him again.

"Yes, keep it." Tang Shen also helped.

Zhao Daniu finally gritted his teeth and accepted it, "Well, then I'll accept it."

"Oh, by the way, I just cooked some food. We have a small family and can't finish so much. You can take some back for Gangzi to try." Qin Zijin said and turned into the kitchen.

Wild boar meat is cooked in the evening.

Qin Zijin also left some spare ribs, pork belly, lean meat, and pig's trotters, and ate all the other pork offal for himself.

Because Zhao Fugui and his friends had an accident suddenly, they wasted a lot of time cutting down trees, and the pig offal has not been processed yet.

Qin Zijin planned to finish it in the dark at night, marinate the pork liver, pork intestines, and pork tripe, so that he could make some raw pork porridge in the morning.

He went in and brought out a bowl of meat and stuffed it into Zhao Daniu's hand. Then Qin Zijin asked Tang Can to help with the work.

Zhao Daniu originally wanted to refuse, but after smelling the aroma of the meat, he finally didn't say anything and went home with the bowl.

"Brother Danniu is really hardworking. I just feel bad for wasting so much of other people's time." Qin Zijin walked in with the dishes and couldn't help shaking his head.

"Brother Da Niu and his family are all honest people. We'll have to discuss with him how to pay him later." Tang Can also nodded in agreement.

"If there is nothing to do tomorrow, I will continue to take my sister-in-law into the mountains. But I am tired of eating meat every day. Can we still catch fish in the village now?" Qin Zijin put down the food in his hand and turned to ask Tang Shen.

Tang Shen thought about it and shook his head: "It's not easy to catch them in this weather, but we can try setting up two traps. Whether we can catch them depends on luck."

"Then let's try it tomorrow." When Qin Zijin heard the words "it depends on your luck", his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he looked at Tang Shen.

She couldn't be sure whether other people were lucky or not, but Tang Shen's luck was definitely good!

Looks like we can eat fish tomorrow!

Qin Zijin was in a good mood and had a smile on her face.

Tang Shen was stunned for a moment.

Tang Simeng sat aside, glanced at Tang Can and Qin Zijin, covered her mouth with a smile, and whispered to Tang Ruixuan beside her: "Brother, look at mom and dad, they are so shy."

Tang Ruixuan took a look, then turned his head silently and snorted, looking as if he didn't care, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

"Eat quickly and stop looking." Qin Zijin's old face turned red when he heard what the two little guys said. He stretched out his hand to push Tang Shen away, lowered his head to eat silently, but his heart was beating a little faster.

Tang Shen raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Qin Zijin for a long time before he picked up the bowl and started eating.

After they had eaten, I washed the two little ones' faces and feet before letting them go to bed.

"How long will it take to make the cotton-fluffing tool?" Qin Zijin couldn't help but shiver when he lay on the bed.

It's really too cold.

It seems to have gotten a little colder these past two days.

"Usually it takes three days. I'll go and ask again the day after tomorrow." Tang Shen replied softly.

Qin Zijin didn't ask any more questions after hearing this. He stayed in the quilt for a while before he finally felt a little warmer and his consciousness entered the space.

The space was warm, the pond seemed bigger, and the fish in it were fatter.

The peaches on the peach tree in front of the thatched cottage exude an enchanting fragrance that makes people drool.

Qin Zijin picked a peach and took a bite. The peach was juicy and sweet.
