Chapter 420 Remarried Widow 13
The next day, Yuanchun got up in high spirits and cooked a pot of rice for several children. The dish was a bowl of steamed egg custard, a shredded potato, and a few Pickle lumps.
After dinner, Daqiang took Erqiang to school.
Daqiang is in the third grade and Erqiang is in the first grade. Because Chen Dagang died suddenly and the original owner became ill, the two children took a long leave from school.
After Yuanchun recovered from his illness, he sent his two children to school.
The youngest daughter and son were still too young to study, and Yuanchun was worried about leaving them at home, so he took them to the mountains to hunt pigweed, and he also taught the two children how to identify wild vegetables, mushrooms and medicinal materials.
The mother and son took two baskets of hogweed and went down the mountain all morning. They saw a group of ladies and aunts sitting under the big tree in the square of the brigade headquarters, discussing something heatedly.
When those people saw Yuan Chun, they waved to Yuan Chun, "Daqiang Mom, come here quickly and tell you a big news."
"Grandma Li, what's the news?"
Yuan Chun asked clearly, with a curious expression on his face.
Grandma Li said, "Daqiang Mom, we have all heard that Matchmaker Li has been to your house several times. She wanted to tell you to the Cui family of Shunfeng Brigade. Oh, Daqiang Mom, thank you for rejecting this offer." Marriage, otherwise you will be in bad luck. Don't you know that last night, the Cui family was retaliated against, and all the members of the family had their legs broken with sticks. "
Yuan Chun patted his chest in horror and fear, "Oh my god, how...how could this happen? Is it true? Then the Cui family did something outrageous and evil? The whole family's legs were broken, tsk tsk tsk, luckily, luckily, I didn't agree to this marriage, otherwise, oh, then I wouldn't be forced to do so now. Go and serve a family of disabled people."
"You, just be happy." Grandma Li patted her hand, "Luckily you are good at holding on, otherwise, just go ahead and cry. ."
A kind-hearted aunt reminded her, "Daqiang Mom, you shot two baskets of pigweed this morning. This pigweed is really tender, but you can bring it with you. Take your two children up the mountain, but don't go into the deep mountains. There are many ferocious beasts in there."
"Yes, your children are young and they can't run away from ferocious beasts." Yuanchun smiled and shook his head, "I won't go. Deep in the mountains, just plant some pigweed outside. Fortunately, my Sanqiang and Yaya are good children and will not run around in the mountains.”
“I won’t chat with you anymore. I have to hand over the pigweed to you. In a while, the children will go down the mountain to hand over the pigweed.” Yuanchun moved the basket rope on his shoulder, and then held the little one with one hand. Son, holding a bundle of hogweed in one hand.
Yaya held her brother's hand and followed her mother obediently to the pig farm.
After handing over the pigweed and recording the work points for the children who came to hand it over, Yuanchun took a pair of children to the village chief's house.
The chicks she ordered will be delivered today. The village chief’s wife asked someone to bring a message asking her to come and pick them up after work at noon.
When Yuanchun arrived at the village chief's house, the village chief's wife had already prepared it, and the young chickens were all crowded into a large basket.
The village chief's wife put the basket into Yuan Chun's hand and said, "I hatched a total of thirty-six eggs and produced thirty-two chicks. You can take them all."
"Then I'll make up the money for you."
Yuan Chun took out two cents from his pocket and handed it to the village chief's wife.
Eggs cost five cents each, and chicks cost ten cents each. The village chief's wife earns half and half from hatching chicks, and the hatched chicks belong to the village chief's wife.
However, even hatched eggs can be fried and eaten, so the village chief's wife is not at a loss.
