Just after lunch, Mrs. Qiu coaxed Lu Xiaowu to sleep on the boat.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and it was no longer possible to live in the shack at noon. During the day, Lu Quan was not around, so Qiu and her children rested on the boat.

Just as Lu Xiaowu fell asleep, he heard someone shouting from the shore: "Auntie, Auntie, I am Xiaowu."

Mrs. Qiu was still wondering, which Xiao Wu? Why was it the same as the one in her arms, Xiao Wu?

Perhaps because he was afraid that others might not understand him, the visitor shouted again: "I am Ding Wu, is Aunt Lu home?"

Lu Xiaowu was probably startled by the sound on the shore. He clasped his hands together and grinned as if he was about to cry.

Mrs. Qiu hurriedly patted Lu Xiaowu and signaled Lu Xiangge to set up the springboard.

At noon, because of Lu Sheige's request, everyone in the family except Lu Quan, who was doing the work at the pier, had to take a nap. After dinner, the Lu family pulled out the gangplank to avoid people from the boats next to them coming up to talk and disturbing Lu Xiaowu.

This child doesn't like to cry, but if you want to disturb his sleep, that's not okay. If he cries, he will make a loud noise.

When Ding Wu saw Lu Sheige, he grinned and raised the meat knife in his hand: "My mother asked me to bring this."

A cut of meat will make you more fat and less lean. The fat meat is as wide as a finger, and it looks so white that people like it.

Since Lu Sheige came to this world, he has never seen such thick fat.

Although there is lean meat in this meat, compared with the fat meat, it is simply pitiful.

In the past, Lu Sheige would never have eaten this kind of fatty meat, but now, just seeing the white meat makes her cheeks wet.

Want to eat.

Lu Xiangge led Ding Wu to the cabin. The women and children on the shore looked at Ding Wu's figure with envy in their eyes.

That's meat, a long strip of fat meat.

Eat sparingly, the oil produced from the fat meat is enough to feed the family for half a year.

"Auntie, all the braised pork intestines and pig's feet are sold today. There is not enough to sell every day."

Ding Wu wiped the sweat off his face with a smile on his face, smiled and nodded at Lu Shege who poured him tea: "My mother said, let me tell my aunt that I will give you the money when she goes home tomorrow. By the way.

I asked my aunt to visit her house more often when she has free time. My mother and my sisters-in-law are just starting out and are afraid of doing well. Auntie will keep an eye on them for a few more days before they feel at ease. By the way, my mother said, business has been so good these days.

, my mother also left two pig heads, several pig tails and pig feet, ready to be braised and sold tomorrow."

At only fifteen or sixteen years old, Ding Wu could speak better than most people of the same age that Lu Xiangge had seen.

The smile on everyone's face is very similar to that of Aunt Ding. The same handsome eyebrows and big eyes appear heroic on Ding Wu's face.

It was originally agreed that Mrs. Qiu would go to Ding's house to help with the cooking for a few days. When Aunt Ding's daughter-in-law could get started, she wouldn't have to go.

Now the Ding family sent Ding Wu to invite him and brought meat. This was treating Qiu like a master.

Naturally, Mrs. Qiu would not refuse: "Isn't it agreed that the silver will be one cent every ten days? Don't worry. I'll give you the copper coins for this meat."

Saying that, Qiu took out his purse to get money for Ding Wu.

Unexpectedly, Ding Wu got up in a panic and even knocked over the tea bowl on the table. Most of the full bowl of tea was poured on him.

Ding Wu was embarrassed and embarrassed. While he was busy wiping the water on the boat, he did not forget to explain to Qiu: "This way I can ask for money from my aunt. My aunt had marinated the pig's feet the day before yesterday, so my mother took them to the gate."

It was sold for eighty copper coins. This is the meat my mother specially left for my aunt, saying it was to make up for the pig's feet from the day before."

The day before yesterday, when Lu Sheige left the pig intestines and pig's feet, he said that pig's feet were considered wages.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Qiu stewed the pig's feet again and gave them to Aunt Ding to sell.

Today, Aunt Ding specially cut off a piece of fat meat weighing more than two kilograms and sent it to her younger son.

This is much more valuable than pig’s feet!

"That's not how the account is settled."

Although Lu Xiige said that pig's feet were considered wages, Aunt Ding also wanted to share 10% of the profit with the Lu family after selling the sausages and pig's feet. How could she take advantage of the Ding family again?

Qiu took out fifty coins and insisted on giving it, but Ding Wu firmly refused to take it.

After pushing and pushing, Ding Wu finally had no choice but to simply lift the door curtain and rush out of the cabin to run away.

He must never take this copper coin back, otherwise he will be beaten to death by his mother.

Qiu looked at the meat that Ding Wu brought and looked at Lu Shege in embarrassment: "What do you think of this meat?"

You can't send it back, but even if you give me money, Aunt Ding won't take it!

"Mom, since Aunt Ding gave it to you sincerely, just keep it. Later, my eldest and second sister and I will collect the fishing nets. If there are any fish, we will bring some fresh fish to Aunt Ding's house. However, this time,

You need to make it clear to Aunt Ding that business is business and favor is favor, and you must never send me meat again in the future."

Qiu nodded and could only do as Xiao Si said.

Although her family is poor, she has always disliked taking advantage of others.

This time the Ding family brought such a large piece of meat, which made her feel somewhat embarrassed.

Lu Sheige saw Mrs. Qiu lowering her head and said nothing, and said nothing more. Her mother was used to this kind of barren life. Suddenly someone offered her a knife, which was a huge favor to her. Not only did she not feel happy, but she felt...

burden.

In fact, in her opinion, Aunt Ding only sent meat this time because the sausages and pig's feet were selling well these days.

In the future, the two companies will continue to cooperate.

Otherwise, why did Aunt Ding not bring any pork when she came two days ago, but only two pig's feet, a piece of sausage, and a piece of pig's liver.

It's not just that the fat intestines are not easy to sell, and the pig's feet are not liked by many people, the pig's liver is usually used as a topping.

Of course, delivering meat today is because Aunt Ding sees the benefits of these two days.

Lu Sheige handed the meat to Lu Xiaoqing: "Sister, please hang it up. When dad comes back tonight, we can make braised pork."

"You can eat whatever you want, how can you eat meat every day?"

Before Qiu could say anything, Lu Xiaoli took the meat first and said, "I'll cut off the fat meat first and boil it in oil. I'll pickle the lean meat with salt and keep it for a few days before eating it."

"Second sister, I have no problem with fat meat being boiled in oil. Just don't pickle the lean meat. The weather is so hot, what should I do if it goes bad?"

Lu Xiangge pulled on Lu Xiaoli's sleeves in a flattering manner without letting go: "Let me give you some copper coins, and let's buy some flour and make dumplings. It would be great to make dumplings with the leftover oil residue from boiling the oil and the lean meat."

"Okay, let's make dumplings." Mrs. Qiu opened the purse she just took out and prepared to pay.

"Mom...why are you so spoiled to Xiaosi?"

Lu Xiaoli didn't expect that not only would she not keep the meat, but she would also pay for the flour. She stared at Mr. Qiu's hand picking up the money and wanted to grab Mr. Qiu's purse.

"You have to eat meat and buy flour. How much does it cost?"

Still having trouble getting through life?

Lu Sheige didn't care that Lu Xiaoli was so angry that she jumped up and down. She took the money handed over by Qiu, pulled Lu Xiaoyu and ran out.

After people ran out, they didn't forget to turn around and shout: "Second sister, don't forget to go down the slope to pick a tender rice melon and bring it back. The rice melon and meat filling are delicious and not greasy."

Lu Xiaoli angrily spat in the direction Lu Xiaosi was walking away: "Why is she so good at eating the rice melon when it's still tender for stuffing? The rice melon hasn't grown yet, so it's a pity to eat it."

"Okay."

Mrs. Qiu smiled and patted Lu Xiaoli, "It's better than just wrapping the meat. Go pick it up quickly."
