Fang Rui was not in the mood to watch Liu Xiuhua show off. As soon as she turned around and stepped forward, Fang Rui entered the main room. He picked up the snakeskin bag containing rice and went straight to the bamboo forest behind. Then he imitated the sound of a cock crow and called.
After getting up and calling a few times, I saw chickens flying from all directions in the bamboo forest, flapping their wings.
Fang Rui scooped up a few bowls of millet and scattered them on the ground.
The chickens clucked and the chickens started to grab the food. The chicken heads were shaking and the chickens were clucking loudly. The scene was very lively.
Watching the young chickens eating millet enthusiastically, Fang Rui thought about the chicken food issue again.
The chickens have stopped eating feed for a long time. Although there are insects in the bamboo forest and grass, after these days of tossing, they have been almost destroyed by the young chickens. During this time, they have also eaten hundreds of kilograms of rice.
Although these millets are grown in our own fields, they still cost money.
Fang Rui knows very well that rural farmers raise chickens, ducks, and pigs. Excluding all expenses and labor, they basically lose money. Even though they know that they are doing things that are losing money, the reason why rural people do this is nothing more than themselves.
You can feel more at ease when you raise them. Besides, rural people are restless and always have to find something to do for themselves.
But Fang Rui raises chickens not just to have chickens for his own family, but to start a real business. If he can't make money, the so-called starting a business will be a failure. It seems that this problem of chicken food needs to be thought of. Especially when waiting for
In the future, I will expand the scale of raising chickens by myself.
……………………
When night fell, Xiao Hei came back, but his appearance was no different from usual.
During dinner, Fang Rui told his mother that Liu Xiuhua would take him on a blind date in a few days.
My mother picked up some vegetables, nodded and told her son that although marriage is the biggest event in life, things like blind dates should not be taken too seriously. As the saying goes, it doesn't matter whether it works or not. At the same time, my mother also
Told Fang Rui, no matter what the woman's condition is, whether she wants it or not, you must behave politely and not let others look down upon you.
Rural people value face more and pay more attention to rules. My mother then explained some things that need to be paid attention to. For example, when going to the woman's house, you must bring at least two packs of cigarettes with you. The cigarettes are preferably Jinbaisha. You must smoke when entering the door.
, you should also smoke when you leave, and depending on the situation, you will have to smoke more than one round at least. And as long as you are present, everyone must smoke, no matter men, women, old or young, don't miss any of them, because
This is a question of respect for others.
Also, when taking a cigarette, especially when giving it to the woman's elders, you should hold the cigarette holder towards the person, so that the person can put the cigarette directly into their mouth and smoke it. In addition, you must hold it with both hands. What is important here is politeness.
and respect issues.
In addition, the girl's parents should be called uncles and aunts, and those who looked young can be called uncles and aunts. You can call other elders how the girl calls them, such as the girl's grandparents, uncles, aunts, etc., you can also call them uncles and aunts.
Just shout.
This meal was basically my mother teaching Fang Rui these etiquettes. Although she didn't know the specific day for the blind date, Fang Rui still carefully wrote down what her mother told her.
……………………
Fang Rui got up early the next day, had breakfast, and went to the fields with his mother to pull water weeds.
In fact, it has already been torn once before the fields were plowed, but the vitality and reproduction ability of those aquatic plants are super strong. Even if only one root is not removed, it will grow again immediately.
It was already past ten o'clock in the morning when we had torn up two mounds of water and grass in the field.
Fang Rui returned home and took the dive to the pond.
The area of the pond is not large, only about two cents.
However, the water in the pond is relatively deep, perhaps more than two meters.
Fang Rui rolled out the pipe, connected the wires, turned on the power, and the submersible began to work.
Watching the gurgling water flowing out of the pipe, Fang Rui estimated that it would take four or five hours to drain the water, so he took out his mobile phone and called Lao Bian, "Are Lao Bian busy now?"
Lao Bian was a little bored and said, "Brother, I'm just a shopkeeper now. I have nothing to do all day long. I'm so idle... By the way, is your business about to be done?"
Fang Rui said, "I can do it before three o'clock in the afternoon, but if you have nothing to do, can you come over first? Don't you like to eat for a while?"...
After hearing Fang Rui's joke, Lao Bian laughed and said, "Don't tell me, I really want to come over for lunch... Okay, I'll come over now, remember to cook a few more bowls of rice, I'll come over with Lin Fangfang...
..." As he spoke, Lao Bian lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "There is another person who will come together."
"Who is it?" Hearing Lao Bian's tone, Fang Rui became depressed. This guy was even playing tricks on him.
"I won't tell you yet, just wait for the surprise." Lao Bian laughed proudly.
……………………
After hanging up the phone, Fang Rui didn't bother to think about the so-called surprise that Lao Bian said. He took the vegetable basket to the vegetable field not far from home and pulled some onions, garlic, and two lettuces. He saw a few tomatoes on the tree.
I also picked some relatively ripe tomatoes and put them into the basket. When I came back, I picked some wild perilla on the roadside. These perillas are said to be wild, but they are actually authentic perillas, but they grow on someone’s house.
In the fields, they fend for themselves, so the locals regard them as wild.
After returning home, Fang Rui called Lao Bian again and asked how long it would take for him to arrive.
Lao Bian told Fang Rui that he had already set off and would be there in less than an hour.
Fang Rui started washing rice, cooking it, and then cutting vegetables.
People in the countryside don't pay much attention to what they eat. They eat whatever is available in the fields. Some families even have the same dish on the table every day for a month. Fang Rui doesn't pay much attention to these, and his cooking skills are very good.
Damn it, he can make the same dish with many different flavors.
After cutting the vegetables, Fang Rui went to the well to pick up a load of clean water, and then got ready to cut open the eel.
Yesterday, Fang Rui discovered something interesting. He killed so many eels and gave Lao Bian another two or three kilograms. However, in the system energy value records, in addition to two negative growth records due to the loss of chickens,
, there is no other record of energy reduction. Fang Rui asked the system, but the system could not answer it. Fang Rui himself wondered whether the things he raised could be disposed of at will as long as they grew to a certain level?
The guess may not be correct, but never mind, the system will not deduct the energy value anyway, just kill it freely.
More than 2 taels of eels were selected, and a dozen eels were picked, three-fifths of which were cut up and used for stir-frying, and the remaining ones were used to make soup.
After all the vegetables were ready, and when the pot was set up and about to be fried, my mother called from the bamboo forest behind, "Ruizi, come here quickly, are there two more chickens missing?"
Hearing this, Fang Rui's heart skipped a beat, no, didn't we find out the cause yesterday and block the hole? How could it be missing again? Fang Rui quickly turned on the system, and after checking, two transactions were actually made today.
Negative data, damn, I really lost two more chickens!
After closing the stove door, Fang Rui hurried into the bamboo forest.
……………………
I almost forgot that today is the Dragon Boat Festival, haha, I wish you all a happy holiday, eat more zongzi, and it’s best to eat yourself as fat as zongzi...
By the way, I just saw that the new book was on the list of new books by contracted authors in the urban category, and it was ranked last, haha, thank you for your support...
To be honest, Lao Jiu really doesn’t want to write these things at the end of the chapter. I think the folks will feel uncomfortable reading it, but the results of the book are indeed unsatisfactory, and there are also problems with fans. Haha, there is not even a dollar reward.
One, I’m really ashamed. Can any fellow countryman do me a favor? It’s only one yuan for a cigarette and one yuan for betel nuts. Thank you, Laojiu...
