The fierce peasant woman is busy farming
Chapter 59 Purchase of Crucian Carp
Old Man Ning smiled and said, "It hasn't been done yet, so let's not talk about such unrealistic things."
Zhou Yue wiped his hands and came into the room and greeted Doctor Yang.
Doctor Yang said, "It's a good thing you're here, let me talk to you two in detail.
I think your old man's leg has recovered a little. The blood circulation in the leg is flowing smoothly and the bones are healing slowly.
I think if there is still some Panax notoginseng powder, we need to continue applying it externally.”
"Okay. Great, thank you, Doctor Yang.
Do you have any Sanqi? I'm afraid the one I have won't last for a few days."
“The pharmacy in town doesn’t have it, I’ll go ask my senior brother in the county.
As you know, the price of Panax notoginseng has skyrocketed now, it is even more expensive than ginseng.
It’s expensive, but the most important thing is that it’s out of stock.
It is said that some people took the risk and went to the Southwestern Yi to sell despite the fact that the two sides were at war.
Although they did not make a profit, they did get some Panax notoginseng.”
"Is Panax notoginseng very expensive?" Old man Ning is very good at listening to the key points.
"It's not expensive, it's not expensive. It's just increased temporarily. Once I use up all the money I have and the southwest is stable, the price will come down."
Zhou Yue followed Dr. Yang's words and almost let the cat out of the bag. She winked at Dr. Yang while she spoke.
Doctor Yang nodded in agreement but didn't dare to say anything.
Zhou Yue hurriedly said, "The meal is ready. Doctor Yang, Dad, let's go eat."
Doctor Yang sat down at the dining table in the yard and was a little surprised when he saw the food in the house.
I don’t know if it’s because I came here that I specially added some dishes.
There was actually a large plate of fried fish and a large pot of vegetables with meat in it.
There was also a large plate of stir-fried vegetables and a large plate of braised chicken cubes with white yam cubes and thick red sauce, which looked very tempting.
Which farmer eats like this?
Zhou Yue saw Doctor Yang's shock and said hurriedly, "Doctor Yang, my family recently got a wild boar, and this pork is from a wild boar.
As for chicken, you know, it is killed for the purpose of curing diseases. If you don’t eat it, it will go bad.
The fish are what my family is selling, caught from the river, not worth much. "
"Oh, is that fish sold by your family? I've heard about it, but there are always a lot of patients at the market, so I never had time to buy some to try.
I am so lucky to be able to eat the host's food today. Hahaha..."
Zhou Yue asked Yuan Mo to bring a bowl of fried fish to the village chief to thank him for helping his family buy dry land.
Just as we were about to start eating, there was a knock on the door.
When I opened the door, it was Sun who came.
When Ning Yuande, the second son of the Ning family, was not busy, he would go to the county to find odd jobs, so usually only Sun and her son Tao Mo were at home.
I've heard that the eldest son of the Ning family is now rich and eats well, so I go there every episode to do business and buy a lot of things.
I just came here to take a look and get some benefits. How can I be worthy of my reputation in Fenghuangtai Village?
Qian opened the door and her face turned dark when she saw Sun.
Before the marriage, Qian didn't like Sun, and she disliked her even more after the marriage.
Later, Sun instigated Ning Yuande to split up the family, and Qian's dislike for her reached its peak.
During the past few years of separation, since the old couple were looking after their grandson's ink-making, the eldest daughter-in-law was kind-hearted by nature and did not argue with Mrs. Sun about the few bites of food the child received.
Tao Mo grew up in this yard until he was over three years old. Except for going back to his own home to sleep, he mostly ate his meals here.
Zhou Yue didn't say anything.
Sun knew that he was in the wrong, so he stopped gossiping.
As a result, the relationship between the two families eased a lot.
Qian's attitude towards Sun changed a little because of his ink-drawing ability.
However, it is not a good idea to choose someone's home for dinner just by smelling the food.
Because of the presence of an outsider, Doctor Yang, Qian couldn't say anything.
Sun: "Hey, what are you cooking that smells so good?
Sister-in-law, your family has become rich.
I heard that your family went to the market and sold the fish that my family caught, and made a fortune. The food is getting better and better."
Old Master Ning's face immediately drooped. Qian felt that what she said was rude, but she couldn't scold her in front of outsiders.
He just pulled her into the kitchen and spoke to her in a low voice.
"What about the fish that your family caught while digging for ink? The fish that time has already been eaten by the children.
The fish in the back were all caught by the children here.
"Mom, you can't be so biased. The fish we caught that time was so abundant that my family had several buckets full of them, but he only got a few. You have to be true to your conscience and not lie with your eyes open."
Sun's chest was patting, and the sound became louder and louder.
Qian was afraid that she would start to make a noise, and she wanted to cover her mouth.
While they were arguing, Zhou Yue entered the kitchen.
She said to Qian, "Mom, please go to the yard. Dad needs you to help him get chopsticks."
Knowing that Zhou Yue had sent her away because he had something to say to Sun, Qian cursed in a low voice and told Zhou Yue not to spoil her, except in the kitchen.
When Sun saw her mother-in-law leave, her voice became much softer. She was a little afraid of Zhou Yue.
When they lived together, Zhou Yue was bold and capable, and had several children, which overshadowed her.
She turned from jealousy to hatred, and her relationship with Zhou Yue became strained.
She still had the strength to fight in front of outsiders, but in front of Zhou Yue, she was defeated.
Sometimes she didn't even know what Zhou Yue meant when he scolded her.
Seeing that she was a little bit scared, Zhou Yue didn't say any more.
Sooner or later, the villagers will know about it. It’s not impossible to let the family members know first and give them some face.
After all, this was an ancient time when family ties and clans were valued.
"Sister-in-law, I'm going to tell you a secret, a big secret to making money, please don't tell anyone.
If you take advantage of this opportunity, you won’t have to worry about snacks for at least a month.”
"Really? Don't lie to me. I'm not stupid."
"We are all family, why would I lie to you? Is there anything about you that is worth my lying?"
"Well, no, I don't have any money. Come on, what's the secret?"
Eating melons is human nature, and Sun thought it was some secret of the villagers.
"As you know, my family sells fish at the market. It may not be enough for my family to catch fish alone. My family wants to buy crucian carp and whitebait the day before the market.
Crucian carp is ten cents per catty, and whitebait is twenty cents per catty.
Do you think this is an opportunity to make money?
There are a lot of crucian carp in the river, and the villagers catch them and feed them to the chickens.
Food was in short supply, and not many villagers raised chickens, so few people fished.
They are all children who go there to play with.
There are a lot of fish in the river. I often see them when I wash clothes by the river.
Sometimes when you are wading in the river, the fish will hit your feet.
At ten cents a pound, you can catch at least a hundred or eighty pounds a day.
This is really good news. But no, I can’t let others catch the fish. I have to go home quickly and take my children to fish.
Seeing Sun's eyes rolling around and about to run back home, Zhou Yue said with a smile:
"Sister-in-law, please remember the time. The fish are bought the day before the town market. You caught them too early and there is no place to keep them. We don't want dead or stinky fish."
Only then did Sun realize that there was a time requirement.
Today is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and the eighth day is two days later, so we can only go fishing every other day.
Never mind for now. Let’s go home and make a big fishing net and find a few big buckets. My mother and I can catch hundreds of kilograms at a time.
She didn't even think about it. If it was so easy to get, why would Zhou Yue and the others spend ten copper coins to buy it?
Ten copper coins can buy three eggs.
