The landlady said, "we killed it in Qiushan pig farm. This pig farm is between Qingjiang county and Linjiang County next door. It's only half an hour to transport it back to the county town by carriage. Where's the girl's home?"
"It's far away, and the carriage will take half an hour." Song Xintong said.
"It doesn't matter. We'll kill the pigs around Yinshi. We'll dig the pigs in three minutes after Yinshi, and we'll rush back when Maoshi is over. Even if we have a delay on the way, we can get to your village in three minutes at most." The landlady tried to make peace.
"The landlady is joking. It will be too late then." Song Xintong knows the speed of washing water. This kind of thing needs to be washed slowly.
"It's not as good as this. I'll ask my man to send you more tomorrow. You can keep half of it for daily use, but I'll ask my man to send it to you later. What do you say?" The landlady asked with a smile.
Song Xintong thought about it, but only this way. After discussing the price with the landlady, he set the daily quantity, "do we pay the bill when we deliver the goods every day or monthly?"
"Check out when you deliver the goods. It's too long and easy to confuse." The landlady said, "if the girl doesn't want us to deliver the goods, say one day in advance."
"It's natural." Song Xintong didn't buy any more meat. He went to the grain store with an empty basket on his back and bought some rice and noodles. Then he went home slowly.
After passing a pond on the road, I happened to meet several farmers who were digging lotus roots. Song Xintong bought a lot of lotus roots, so the price was cheap. 500 Jin only cost one or two silver.
Returning home with a full load, song Xintong just had dinner, and aunt he came with a load of vegetables. "Xintong, I've washed all these vegetables. You don't need to wash them when you cut them tomorrow. The bean sprouts have just happened. It's estimated that they will have to wait two days before they can sprout."
Song Xintong nodded, according to a total of about 100 Jin of vegetables, paid a total of more than 80 Wen.
"Xintong, did you buy meat in the county?" Aunt he asked.
"It's late. It's all sold out." Song Xintong said: "but the lady who sells meat said she would send it to me tomorrow morning, and I'll do it then."
"Is there time?" Aunt he is worried.
"When I came back, I met my mother-in-law Qiu. They explained that they would come to help me earlier." Song Xintong said.
Hearing this, aunt he sighed with relief, "I'm really sorry today, Xintong. Our donkey is like an ancestor. Sometimes we can't even ask for three or four."
Song Xintong chuckled, "Auntie, what you said is reasonable. I almost knelt down for him and he ignored me, so I can only ask Mr. Lu to help me get it back."
"Will you use it tomorrow? If you want me to bring it back to you. " Aunt he said.
"I have to borrow my aunt's donkey again. Originally I wanted to buy a cow, but I couldn't get a suitable one. I've rented your donkey all this time, OK?" Song Xintong tone sincerely said.
"Yes, I can. Anyway, I'll keep it at home. If I'm lazy, I have to practice it well!" Aunt he made a joke.
"Well, don't worry about it then." Song Xintong also played a joke.
He Er Auntie says busily: "do not feel distressed, do not feel distressed."
Song Xintong didn't take aunt he's words seriously. In this place, people who can raise cattle, sheep and donkeys all have some family background. Moreover, the cattle and donkeys raised by anyone are not taken care of. So today, she would rather kneel down and beg for them than beat them.
He Er Auntie said: "then I'll go back first. If Xie's sister-in-law is too busy, you can call me and Baiyun. We are free."
"Good." After Song Xintong sent people away, he took a bath all over tired, and then collapsed on the bed.
Dabao approached and asked, "sister, are you tired?"
Song Xintong really had no strength. He let out a low hum.
"Ah Jie must be tired. She doesn't even have the strength to laugh." Xiaobao reached out and touched song Xintong's face, "go to sleep, go to sleep, and you won't be tired."
Song Xintong slowly forced eyes, no strength should be their words.
"Sister, I'd better not do it." Dabao sniffed, "let's go into the mountain to pick up mushrooms and gray spores."
In his impression, sister a was not so tired when she went to the mountain.
"Yes, I don't do it any more. I haven't made much money selling grey spores." Xiao Bao agrees.
How can song Xintong not know this truth? But these are not long-term methods. If he can stabilize this business, he can earn one or two liang silver every day, and then he won't worry about it.
When the river is widened, a wharf will be built there. At that time, she will buy that piece of land first, and all the shops on the wharf will belong to her family.
This is a shortcut to the landlord's life!
But she won't tell the twins about all this. Now we can stabilize our business, and then we can hire several people, or give the stall to Aunt Xie's family. She can share the profits, and then we won't have to be so tired.
Song Xintong had a deep sleep that night. She didn't wake up until the cry of dogs came from outside.
Open your eyes, it's already bright.
Song Xintong sat up, put on his coat, put on his shoes and walked out slowly.
"Xintong, just woke up?" Aunt Xie pushed open the door of the courtyard and came in. "Here comes the man who brought the pork into the water for you."
Song Xintong looks at a strong and fierce looking man standing outside the yard with a carriage. He thinks that this man is the man of the landlady. No wonder the landlady has been selling meat. If he goes to the meat stall according to his appearance, no one will dare to buy meat.
"Are you song Xintong?" The man asked in a loud voice.
Song Xintong was startled by this voice, but seeing that he was grinning very hard, he knew that he was just fierce and nodded, "I am."
"My mother-in-law asked me to send it back to you. Today, there are 60 pig feet, 20 jin fat meat, 40 Jin lean meat, eight pairs of water and two barrels of blood." The man came out with a bunch of bones. "My mother-in-law said that Miss Song likes to eat bone soup. These bones are for her."
"Thank you very much." Song Xintong handed over 860 Wen to the man, "tomorrow when the ring is sent, it will be less than half."
"I know. My mother-in-law said that." The man turned, pulled the carriage and left.
Aunt Xie's eyes were straight, "buy so much?"
"And tomorrow's, my aunt will help me to take half of it and hang it in the well." Song Xintong divided half out, the other half of this all into a big wooden basin, ready to wash later.
"I'm going." After aunt Xie saved it, Mrs. Qiu also came. They took the other half of the water to the stream and slowly washed the fat intestines with the method taught by song Xintong.
Song Xintong made three bowls of noodles while boiling the sauce. After eating them, his sister and brother continued to be busy.
In the kitchen, song Xintong shaved and bathed the pig's hooves. After stewing, the twins fed the chickens and dogs and swept the floor with a broom. Then they sat down on the eight immortals table in the main room and slowly practiced the way of writing.
Busy, but peaceful.
