Chapter 34 The Best of Both Worlds



After saying that, Zhu Yanli ran away without looking back. You didn't need to look to know that the little girl must be very angry.

"Hey, live well. If you really have nowhere to go, you can sleep in my woodshed!" Song Yuehua shouted loudly.

Zhu Yanli didn't look back, but just waved her handkerchief, and her vision instantly became a little blurry.

There are many children in the family, and eggs and meat must be supplied. The eggs laid by the two old hens on weekdays are not enough, so Song Yuehua plans to raise a few more chickens to lay eggs.

To this end, I went to the county town and bought twenty chicks at the beginning of spring.

The little rabbits we caught before have grown into big rabbits and have given birth to many little rabbits.

While the sun was out, Song Yuehua went up the mountain and cut a dozen bamboos to make a chicken coop, and then made a pen for rabbits. Rabbits can dig holes, and given their conditions, they were already doing their best by compacting the soil.

In the evening, Song Yuehua counted the silver in the house, a total of 16 taels.

Spending money is like flowing water, and making money is like eating shit. That's what it feels like.

Song Yuehua sighed deeply.

"Sister..."

Xiaoyu lowered her head, like a child who had done something wrong

Song Yuehua perked up and asked, "What's the matter?"

Xiaoyu said that when she went to cut grass today, she met Xiaocao from Song Laoer's house.

In the past, when there were three wives and two sisters around, Xiaocao's life was not that difficult.

Ever since the third room was separated, Xiaocao, as the only girl in the family, has been bullied by Mrs. Song.

Song Xiaocao had not only lost a lot of weight, but also had bruises all over her body. She was driven out early in the morning with an empty stomach to cut grass and feed the pigs.

Song Yuehua remembered that Song Xiaocao and Zhang Ruochu were of the same age and were only six years old this year.

"Then what?" Song Yuehua asked.

Xiaoyu whispered, "I gave her my eggs."

"Do you regret it?" Song Yuehua asked.

Xiaoyu shook her head. "That was the money that my sister worked so hard to earn. I shouldn't have..."

"It's just an egg. Just give it to me if you want." Song Yuehua said.

"But we are running out of money at home..." Xiaoyu raised her head, looking uneasy.

Song Yuehua was stunned and thought, I will count the money next time when I am alone.

"After you gave the eggs to Xiaocao, you didn't eat them yourself, right?" Song Yuehua said in a gentle and persuasive manner, "Xiaoyu is very kind. I won't blame you, but I don't support you doing this."

"Because if you're hungry, my sister will be heartbroken. Although our family isn't rich, we can still afford eggs."

"How about this, you can tell Xiaocao that if she wants to eat eggs, she should exchange them with pig grass. One basket of pig grass for one egg, only one a day. We don't give them for nothing, and she won't starve."

Xiaoyu hugged Song Yuehua's waist and said happily, "Sister, you are so nice!"

Although Song Laoer is hated by everyone, Song Xiaocao is innocent and Song Yuehua will not vent her anger on a six-year-old child.

The lambs, rabbits and chickens at home eat a lot, and cutting grass for pigs is time-consuming and laborious. Song Yuehua just goes with the flow. It is naturally good to get the best of both worlds.

Although the family does not lack these two eggs now, we still need to earn money.
