Chapter 244 Who knows if there will be one next year?



Song also felt that it was too delicious, but she still couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart, so she only ate a few pieces and put down her chopsticks.

Xiao Lei didn't expect that Monkey Cicada could be cooked and eaten like this. "If this is set up in a stall in the county, I think people will buy it. It tastes really good."

"Yeah, I think so too, it's just hard to hold on to, and there's no quantity."

"Next time you want to eat it, tell me and I'll get up early and go to the mountains to catch it."

"Um."

Zhao Dashu was very unhappy. The brat was being attentive to his daughter in front of him, but what about when he couldn't see it?

He doesn't look like an honest man.

Zhiliao accompanied the guests with wine, and Xiao Lei also drank two glasses. The yard was cool at night and the wind was quite strong. Zhao Dashu felt comfortable and a little drunk, so he pulled his wife back to the house and sat down for a while. Zhao Xiaoyu felt that his father really needed to change his drinking habits. How could he get drunk every time he drank?

It will be easy for something to go wrong in the future.

Two days later, Xiao Lei moved back to his own home. He was very reluctant to leave as he was the only one at home and felt a little lonely.

"Should I buy you a servant?" Zhao Xiaoyu also felt that living alone was too lonely and she could hear an echo when she spoke.

"No need. I'll eat at your house. I have to go to the teacher for half a day every day. I don't have much time at home. I have to study the rest of the time. There's nothing to chat with people."

"Well, if you need it, you can go to the county town to buy it yourself." Zhao Xiaoyu looked at his home. It was quite comfortable, a small house, and it no longer looked dilapidated as before.

"Why don't you buy a dog and let it bite anyone who wants to come?"

"Tuo, I'll pick a fierce one some other day."

Zhao Xiaoyu took out fifty taels of silver and said, "You need to keep some money with you when you live alone. I'll give you that much first. Ask me for more when you've spent it."

"I still have a few ounces on me."

"Take it. Although you are eating at our house, we need to buy some food for the kitchen so that you can cook something when you are hungry at night. And don't come in the winter when it snows heavily. You will get wet all over.

Also, my mother said that you don’t need to buy bedding for the winter. The people downstairs will make them and send them to you when the time comes. ”

"I understand."

Someone is thinking about you!

"The Xiao family will probably come looking for you, so just ignore them."

"I know they can't take advantage."

Xiao Lei didn't hold a house-warming party when he moved into his new home, so Zhao Dashu invited a few of his friends to have a meal at his home as Xiao Lei's house-warming party. Anyway, he had no relatives or friends, so there was nothing to hold.

"Uncle, the master's house is almost ready, right?"

"Yeah, almost there."

"If you ask me, you shouldn't build so many houses. If the master leaves our village in the future, what about his houses?"

"We'll talk about it when the time comes."

All the land nearby belonged to him. He had thought about it a long time ago. When Xiao Lei got married and Master Ru wanted to leave, he would fence off the area and build more houses to create several large courtyards.

In the future, his daughter will have one yard, and he and his wife will have another yard. The house is not big to begin with, and it becomes even more crowded after buying more people. When his daughter has a baby, there will be no room for them. In two years, he plans to build a bigger expansion.

These houses will not be abandoned, nor will they be sold at a low price to others.

Hehe, if their Lihua also recruits a son-in-law, that would be even better. He would be surrounded by children and grandchildren, and his family would be extremely lively.

On the first night back home, Xiao Lei suffered from insomnia...

"Boss, do you feel that our house has become much quieter since Xiao Lei moved out?" Song always felt empty inside.

"I don't think so. Our family hasn't lost anything."

"His father, let's not talk about whether the child will be uncomfortable living there. I wonder why we need to build a house when he has lived in our house for so long?"

Zhao Dashu was unhappy again, "How can I not get used to it? His house has everything we have, and each of us has a small house. Our daughter also gave him money, so he shouldn't be too comfortable.

Stop worrying about useless things. When you have time, make me a few more sets of clothes so I can wear them when I go to the capital. “He wants to go to the capital city handsomely.

"Just be so conceited!"

"Where is our Lihua?"

"Go find Chunmiao, Xiaoyu is too busy to play with her."

"Oh, let's go to the city to see if there are any female teachers. It's not a good idea for her to go out and have fun every day. When Chunmiao gets married, she won't have anyone to play with. Xiaoyu also has her own things to do. How can she be pestered by her every day?"

"This child is very wild now. I can't control her at all. Chunmiao won't be bored even if she gets married. Everyone who lives near us has a child similar to her. Chunmiao also lives nearby. She will only play even crazier when the time comes."

"She looked very quiet before."

"Of course I don't dare. My parents-in-law scold me every day when they see me. At the young age, I have endless work to do and no food to eat. I don't have the courage or energy to play."

Zhao Dashu shut up tactfully, he seemed to have talked too much.

As summer passed and autumn came, the river gourd grew bigger without us noticing.

"Dashu, do you think we can pick up such big river gourds?" Liu Shunzi came to Zhao's house happily carrying a basket of river gourds.

The time to make a fortune has come. God knows how hard it has been for him since the summer. He counts the days on his fingers every day and goes to the muddy fields to look at river gourds when he has nothing to do. Well, he also saw the village chief, Hei Zi and the others...

They also fed the river gourd several times. They didn't know what it ate, but they gave it a lot of small fish and earthworms.

Looking at their tiny appearance, I wish they could grow up overnight.

Now, hahahaha…he thinks it’s big enough!

Zhao Dashu picked one up and weighed it in his hand; it seemed to be of acceptable size.

"Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu!"

“Here I come!”

"Do you think this river gourd can be picked up? It's already this big."

Zhao Xiaoyu swallowed subconsciously. If she had to ask what the most inconvenient thing at home was, it would be that it was difficult for the whole family to steal food. Especially seasonal products.

"Okay."

Eat it in a moment.

"Shunzi, go tell them that they can pick it up now." They had already rented a house in the county town, so his daughter would have to work hard in the future, as she would have to go to the county town from time to time to pick up the goods.

"Yes!" Liu Shunzi was overjoyed. He had already discussed it with his family and was determined to pick more river gourds even if he died of exhaustion. The same goes for the other guys, including Old Man Qian. Everyone is working hard to make money.

Who knows if there will be tomorrow? Just work hard and do it until you die of exhaustion.

Liu Shunzi left happily, saying that staying for another quarter of an hour would be disrespectful to the money he made.
