Chapter 67 The baby is missing
It turns out that the golden ears grown by Patriarch Chen’s daughter-in-law were sold for money, and she actually got more than three guans for fifty.
Sanguanduo is more than 3,000 Wen. When buying rice, you can buy six or seven shi, which is enough to feed a family of five for half a year.
Earn it easily in just over a month without delaying farm work. Who wouldn’t want this kind of good thing?
So Han Miaoniang, the second daughter-in-law of Patriarch Chen, said to the fourth sister-in-law: "Can't you divide the fifty flowers into separate plants? I don't want more, just give me a hundred plants."
Of course, the fourth sister-in-law, Shao, was not willing, so she ran to her mother-in-law, Tang, and cried.
Tang became angry when she heard this. She ran over and scolded her second daughter-in-law: "You have such a dark heart. You don't like us mothers, right?"
The Tang family was not Han Mioniang's biological mother-in-law. She was the stepmother of the patriarch Chen Fu. She only gave birth to one son, Shilang Chen Zhu, and a daughter who was already married.
And Chen Dalang and Chen Erlang were both children of Chen Fu's ex-wife, so the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law never took this step-mother-in-law seriously, and sometimes they would quarrel with her, making the daughter-in-law not behave like the daughter-in-law and the mother-in-law.
The second daughter-in-law sneered: "Look what you said, why do you say I can't see you? Dad didn't say we can't get the seeds of the golden ears of the fourth brother and sister."
Tang was furious when she heard this and immediately ran to question her husband.
“Tell me, are those golden ears for the fourth daughter-in-law? Why does the eldest son and the second daughter-in-law also want to grow them?”
She is Chen Fu's second wife. She only has one son, Chen Silang, and her precious son was sent to the army by Chen Fu. How could she not be heartbroken?
Finally, the old man’s conscience found out that he wanted to find a job growing golden ears for the fourth daughter-in-law. As a result, the boss’s second daughter-in-law became jealous and kept looking for trouble.
Clan Chief Chen picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, and said lightly: "What a big deal, those golden ears don't all have mycelium, so it won't matter if they are taken out separately."
"What?"
Mrs. Tang sat down on the chair, clapped her legs and started crying: "You old killer! I married you because I was blind. Oh my god, I won't live anymore. Your Chen family wants to force my mother to death." . My poor Zhu'er went to serve as a soldier for his nephew, but his wife and children were bullied at home. "
Patriarch Chen's forehead was throbbing with veins. He slammed the table and shouted angrily, "Is it over yet? Who has bullied Zhuzi's wife and children?"
Tang jumped up, pointed at Chen Fu and scolded: "You old thing, you said you didn't bully them. Zhu's daughter-in-law just got three guan, and some people don't want to see her. Why, you are the boss and the second one?" My biological son, did I steal Zhuer to raise him?"
“What the **** are you farting at?” Chen Fuqi’s beard trembled wildly.
At this time, the second daughter-in-law Han Miaoniang said angrily outside the window: "Whoever bullies others will die immediately. Well, only the fourth daughter-in-law can cultivate golden ears, but we can't cultivate feelings?"
As soon as Mrs. Tang heard that she was angry, she rushed out of the house with a vase and threw it at Han Miaoniang.
As a result, he used too much force and threw the bottle over the low wall and hit Chen Sanyou's house next door, almost hitting Chen Yin's head.
Not to mention the chaos in Patriarch Chen’s family, brothers Li Dayong and Li Eryong were beaming with joy.
The two of them planted a total of two hundred golden ears and fifty snow ears. This time they got a total of fifteen taels of silver.
Fifteen taels, they have been saving for more than ten years and have never been able to save it.
“Brother, let’s plant four hundred flowers this time.” Li Eryong touched the ten taels of silver ingots and was reluctant to move his hand.
This is the first time he has touched a silver ingot in his life. He never thought that one day he would own one, no, two silver ingots.
The blind father asked from the side: "Son, how about letting dad touch the silver?"
Li Eryong put two silver ingots into his father's hand and said, "Touch them."
Old man Li started to cry as he touched the two silver ingots, one large and one small.
Li Dayong and Li Eryong were startled and asked quickly: "Dad, why are you crying?"
“Woo hoo, my life is worth dying.”
Old man Li rubbed the money with his old face and cried: "It's a pity that your mother died early. If she knew that her son would be so promising one day, why would she have to suffer for a few more years?"
Li Dayong and Li Eryong looked at each other, sighed, and said to Old Man Li: "Dad, when the golden ear is planted, we will go to Beishan to pay homage to our mother and give her a good news."
“Okay, take me there when the time comes.” Old Li wiped his eyes and said, “I haven’t seen your mother in many years.”
…
Just after the Ghost Festival in July, Jiang Dalang’s sow gave birth to piglets.
They actually gave birth to eight piglets at once, which made Jiang Dalang very happy.
"Erlang and Sanlang, when the time comes, each of you will take one to raise, and sell the rest." Jiang Erlang and Jiang Sanlang both shook their heads, "No, I don't have time to raise them."
Their family is too busy and their children have to go to school, so they have no time to raise pigs.
Jiang Dalang scratched his head and sighed: "Then send two to Nanpo for the second boy to raise. They can kill them for meat during the New Year next year, and buy the rest when the full moon comes."
Nowadays, everyone in the family is busy making a lot of money. There is no time to raise pigs, so Jiang Quan has nothing to do. He spends all day trapping birds and hunting rabbits.
Even Ying Bao, who is just over three years old, knows that he can grow golden ears to make a living. That kid is just a fool, and he only wants to sell water chestnuts. He also says that he just likes selling things, not growing golden ears.
At present, except for Yuanbao Huzi and the twins, the Jiang family is still ignorant. Even Dani and Erni have begun to grow golden ears and snow fungus, saying that they want to be like Yingbao, making money and spending it themselves.
Time passed day by day, and soon the piglet was full moon.
The sow has plenty of milk and has raised eight piglets that are plump and plump, which is very gratifying.
The happiest among them is none other than Wen Hengyin.
He secretly came over every day to feed the sow Ahua, and felt very satisfied when he saw the cubs sucking milk from Ahua's belly.
One day when he came to feed the piglets again, he found that there were two piglets missing.
what happened?
Wen Hengyin hurriedly counted it twice.
There are indeed two missing.
"How did you bring up the cubs?" Wen Hengyin couldn't help scolding Ahua: "You don't even know there are two missing?"
A-Hua snorted at him a few times and lay there ignoring him.
Wen Hengyin returned home feeling depressed and could not sleep a wink all night.
Looking again one day later, there was only one cub left in Ahua’s belly.
Wen Hengyin was anxious and wanted to go in to hug the cub, but Ahua jumped up and attacked him.
"are you crazy!"
Wen Hengyin could only retreat from the wall. He jumped up and down in anger, but he did not dare to go in again.
The more he thought about it, the sadder he became. He turned around and ran home to cry to his mother: "Mom, go and save your grandson. They have all been stolen. Wuwuwuwu..."
Xiao Zhenniang's hand holding the pen shook, thinking she heard wrongly: "What did you say?"
"Your grandson has almost been stolen. Go and buy it back..." Wen Hengyin sobbed, feeling extremely sad.
I worked so hard to raise the cubs to such a big size, but I didn’t expect that only one would be left in the end.
He was sure that if he didn't care, he wouldn't even be able to see that one tomorrow.
"My grandson?" Xiao Zhenniang lowered her face, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"No...I'm not talking nonsense. It's true." Wen Hengyin sobbed and said, "It's in the Jiang family..." in the pig pen.
Xiao Zhenniang stood up and said, "Okay, take me to have a look."
So the couple came to Jiang’s house, next to the pigsty.
When Xiao Zhenniang saw her "grandson", her face was calm.
She glanced at her son lightly and asked, "Are you sure this is your child?"
Wen Hengyin nodded seriously, recounted what happened that day, and finally defended himself: "I...I didn't want to..."
The corner of Xiao Zhenniang's mouth twitched, and she suppressed laughter. She just said: "Then you wait, I will go to Jiang's house and buy it."
