Qiqi knew that this was also the reason why the market in Yanjia Village was not lively when she went there yesterday.

Because most of the small business owners at the market are like my dad, selling side dishes from their own homes and the chickens, ducks, cows and sheep they raise at home.

They are all timid and cautious farmers, so they all get up early. The market is most crowded from 4 to 6 a.m. After 8 a.m., there are very few people, and only the public supply and marketing cooperatives on the street are busy.

Qiqi saw that Malanhua was not coming over here, so she ran to the backyard with her pants in her hands.

Their toilet is in the southeast corner of the small vegetable garden in the backyard.

Is she still wondering?

Malanhua is usually so lazy, why did she get up so early today?

It turns out that he was woken up by the urge to pee.

"Don't forget to water the donkey when you come back, Dad. It brayed a few times last night, and I think it's time for it to come."

May is the Indian Spring, which is the breeding season for animals. It is time for their old donkey to be bred.

"Alas, when can you sell vegetables without being so sneaky? This beast shouldn't suffer in the open."

It was early in the morning and the dew was heavy, so the donkey's hooves would be particularly damaged if they walked on the dewy ground.

Qiqi knew that her father was worried about their donkey. Liang Deshui didn't care about himself, but about the donkey. In those days, every farmer was like that.

The donkey is the most valuable thing in the family. It can be used for pulling the mill, threshing, going to the market or pulling the cart.

"Don't worry, it will be ready by this time next year. You can release the episode whenever you want."

Qiqi comforted her father.

She clearly remembered that in her previous life, at the beginning of spring, the team was divided into individuals.

"How do you know it will be fine next year? You are just a kid, what nonsense are you talking about."

Liang Deshui smiled and said Qiqi.

Seven seven smiles,

"Dad is so generous, even God has to help him."

Qiqi smiled and thought to herself, of course I know. In her previous life, a meeting was held at the end of this year and known to all people in the country. Next year, all rural areas in the country will work separately. But she couldn't tell anyone else this. Even her father and her brother couldn't tell them.

"Dad, after you sell the vegetables, buy two sickles."

"Don't you have one at home?"

The large fields are public, and each family only has a small vegetable plot.

The small vegetable plot that Qiqi's family was allocated was not far behind her yard. It was originally separated by a shallow water pond. Liangdeshui and Liangshan had been dry for a winter, so a pond was dug in the northwest corner of the shallow water pond. The excavated soil was filled in other places, thus turning the water pond into flat land. Then, sorghum stalks and mud were mixed to build a wall.

There are three main rooms. When the courtyard was built, there was a toilet on the west side, which was demolished and left with a door leading to the backyard.

The Liang family's own vegetable plot is connected to the three-acre plot allocated by the team to the north. Together, the two plots cover a little over one acre, making it the largest vegetable plot in Liang Village.

He was afraid that the villagers would be jealous of him if he grew crops in his small vegetable garden, so he planted vegetables when the water was cold. When he planted too many vegetables, he could not eat them all, so he began to sell them secretly in several markets near and far to earn some money to supplement the family income.

In addition, Liang Deshui gave money as a dowry to others, and Liangshan helped build houses for others, so their family lived a relatively average life in the village.

To grow vegetables, you have to buy farm tools, sickles, hoes, and even cold water.

There is only a small piece of land at home, so one sickle is enough. Why buy two more?

"Just say you ran into Chen Bei and he bought it for you."

Qiqi knew that her father was afraid that her stepmother would be angry.

Every penny earned from selling vegetables had to be given to the stepmother. She also had to tell him what to buy and how much to buy before he could buy anything.
