Chapter 59

Awesome

"Dad, what are you talking about!" Xue Erhu said immediately. "You are also afraid that you can only sell it at that price because you are afraid of the highest price. It's not intentional."

Everyone was chatting and laughing along the way, and finally met a man selling candied haws.

Xue Dafu bought two strings of three cents each and gave them to Jiang Yue.

Seeing that her little hand on the left had a bunch of candied haws stuffed in it, and the little hand on her right also had a bunch of candied haws stuffed in it, she looked more like a child, Jiang Yue... looked at the sky.

"Dad, should we go back directly, or...?" Xue Erhu asked his father what he meant. If we go back directly, the road in front of us can be taken.

"No," Xue Dafu said, "Let's go to the vegetable market again and buy four kilograms of pork. Give your grandpa two kilograms and we will eat two kilograms at home."

"Dad, this is not a new year or a holiday..." Xue Yihu swallowed his saliva, rubbed his hands, and was extremely honest.

Xue Erhu also swallowed his saliva.

As soon as Jiang Yue saw it, she knew it had been a long time since she had eaten meat.

"Isn't today a special day?"

"Hey!" Xue Yihu and Xue Erhu both responded.

Pork costs twelve cents per catty, and four catties of pork costs forty-eight cents. Xue Dafu's family would never buy such a luxurious thing, let alone four catties.

Even during the Chinese New Year, Xue Dafu's family could only buy two kilograms of pork at most.

Today I am really happy because Xiong Xiazi sold one hundred taels.

Jiang Yue followed to the pork stall and watched Xue Dafu and others buying pork, and found that bones, pig waste, etc. were much cheaper than meat.

Because there is not much meat on the bones, it costs only six cents per catty; the offal and intestines are even cheaper, costing three cents per catty, but they often cannot be sold.

Jiang Yue felt that the people here were a little ignorant. For example, the pork ribs were so delicious, but they only cost six cents a pound.

When the family gets richer in the future, she will definitely have enough to eat.

After buying the pork, everyone got on the bullock cart and went home.

While Jiang Yue and the others were still on their way back, the long-tongued woman Wang Sufen had already returned to the village from the town. As soon as she arrived in the village, she said when she saw people: "It's incredible, it's incredible. The rich man doesn't know where the bear came from."

The blind man actually sold it for one hundred taels of silver!"

"One hundred taels?!" Everyone's eyes were about to pop out.

"Yes, yes, I heard it with my own ears. It can't be wrong." Wang Sufen said repeatedly. "You tell me, where did Dafu come from? This is the first time I have seen a blind man."

Only then did someone tell her: "He was beaten by five tigers from his family."

After roughly knowing the situation, Wang Sufen said: "What kind of bad luck did their family have? They got rich all of a sudden. One hundred taels, that's one hundred taels. In these eight villages, who has one hundred taels?"

Two people’s families, even the Tian family, which owns cattle, don’t have so much money at all.”

"Who says it isn't?" someone echoed, with a rather sour tone. "It used to be a hard life, and every family in the village was better off than ours, but now it's better, and vice versa."

Some people didn't think it was a big deal and said: "There is so much money, Aunt Wang, why don't you go to Dagui's house and talk about this matter with Meili, and see if Meimei doesn't want to do it again."

"Yes, yes, I'm going, I'm going." Wang Sufen was also a person who didn't take things too seriously, so she actually went. But before she went to Xue Dagui's house, she met Li Hehua, who was shaking water by the well.

Wang Sufen immediately turned around, walked towards Li Hehua with a smile on her face, and said loudly: "Hehua, congratulations, your Xiong Xiongzi sold it for one hundred taels. With so much money, your family is considered rich."
