Chapter 10: Candy in Paper

"Is Lao Qi's dog about to give birth to puppies?" Zhang Bo said suddenly.

Hmm! Not a single one of these little brats has his eyes rolling.

Zhang Shanhai was also very lively. When he passed by Lao Qi's house a few days ago, his bitch's belly was a lot bigger. He even asked Lao Qi that day why his bitch had such a fat belly. They couldn't stop laughing.

Stop, it turns out you are pregnant with a puppy.

Lao Qi's family has already raised two dogs. If the puppies are born now, it is impossible to raise them all and they will definitely be given away. However, Lao Qi has a deep relationship with this dog, and ordinary people may not be able to find him.

puppy.

There are seven or eight little brats here who all want it, but only a few can actually get puppies. Of course, the bitch can only give birth to three or four puppies at most.

In fact, it is not easy to raise a dog at home. There is not enough food for people. How can you have the money to raise so many livestock? Raising pigs at home is a regular savings in rural areas. Raising chickens is a current savings. If you save things throughout the year, where will you raise them?

Chickens lay eggs, which can be sold to meet daily expenses. Raising a pig can provide meat for the New Year on the one hand, and sell most of them to support children's schooling, house repairs and other major expenses.

Raising a dog is different. If you are not prepared to hunt, raising a dog at home is a complete waste of food. This mountain dog is not so easy to raise. It is not only necessary to eat enough every day, but also to eat meat. Of course, the general

Under the circumstances, it can eat this meat on its own. It is so close to the mountain, so it is not difficult to go in and come back with a rabbit in its mouth.

On the way home, Zhang Shanhai was thinking about how he could get a mountain dog back from Lao Qi's house.

After returning home, I had a hasty meal. Zhang Shanhai's parents went to work and went to school. They left some food for Zhang Shanhai and warmed it on the stove. Although Zhang Shanhai was not very hungry, he ate another bowl.

, and sure enough, I found another poached egg under the rice bowl.

After dinner, Zhang Shanhai rushed to Zhang Jingxian's house, but he didn't expect that Zhang Jingxian and his wife were not at home. The door was directly closed without even locking it. Zhang Shanhai then thought that although Zhang Jingxian was a Feng Shui master, he was from the production team.

He still had to work. Otherwise, how would he get the food to support his family? Zhang Jingxian had a beautiful wife, but he had no children. People in the village said that Mr. Feng Shui often dealt with ghosts and gods, which was detrimental to future generations.

Although the door of Zhang Jingxian's house was unlocked, Zhang Shanhai just took a look at it, hesitated for a while, then turned and left. If he enters other people's houses casually, if there is something missing in other people's homes, or anyone else's children, they will be beaten by me when they go back.

It is definitely indispensable.

Zhang Shanhai's father usually hurt him very much, and he was also very cruel when he beat him. Every time, Zhang Shanhai questioned the authenticity of this father.

Zhang Shanhai had been looking forward to this day until evening, and then he found Zhang Jingxian at Zhang Jingxian's home.

When Zhang Jing saw Zhang Shanhai's arrival, he immediately laughed and said, "Hey, Zhang Yunyang's boss is really bloody, he is Zhang Yunyang's son. Among Zhang Yunyang in the village, Zhang Yunyang is the only one who dares to scold my mother. The others are all weaklings. No.

I thought Zhang Yunyang’s kid was so bloody and dared to ask for debt from me.”

Zhang Jingxian's mother-in-law had never given birth to a child, and she was very friendly to the children in the village. She spat at Zhang Jingxian, "Don't scare other people's children. It's not like you don't know that the children in the village act as if they've seen a ghost when they see you. No children ever come."

Just playing at my house."

Zhang Jingxian smiled. He felt a little guilty towards his mother-in-law, so he had to give in to everything, and his voice became much softer, "Shan Hai, are you here to care about me asking for red envelopes?"

Zhang Shanhai was in a state of anxiety. It was impossible to say he was not nervous, "And...senior, um, did they send me a red envelope that day?" Zhang Shanhai casually prepared to call Zhang Jingxian's wife.

Called "Monk", he reacted and quickly changed his words.

Zhang Jingxian is not too old, a little over fifty years old, but his seniority is surprisingly high. Everyone in the village calls him "Old Master".

Zhang Jingxian's wife was in her forties. She was not very hardworking and had never given birth to children. She was still a charming and beautiful woman. Seeing how funny Zhang Shanhai was, she couldn't help laughing.

Zhang Jingxian was a little angry at first, but when his mother-in-law smiled, his anger disappeared without a trace. Zhang Jingxian was more than ten years older than his mother-in-law, and he was not considered an old man or a young wife in Zhangjiashan. But Zhang Jingxian loved this woman very much.

A mother-in-law who is more than ten years younger than him.

"The red envelope has been sealed, but it is sealed with mine. I don't know how much they are going to seal for you. How about I give you two cents?" Zhang Jingxian planned to tease Zhang Shanhai first.

Zhang Daneng's family didn't really send red envelopes to Zhang Shanhai! How can adults take what they say to children seriously? But Zhang Jingxian said so, and he was prepared to take out a few cents himself. Both Zhang Jingxian and his wife can get cents, and the family

Without the burden of old people and children, I can still make some living money by performing rituals for other people's homes, which makes my hands very relaxed.

Zhang Shanhai shook his head, "I don't want money. I want to borrow something from you."

Hey! Zhang Jing didn't expect that Zhang Shanhai could do this trick. This is a little different from other children. Other children can be happy with just one or two cents. This child is actually indifferent to two cents. This can't help but give up.

Zhang Jingxian was surprised. You should know that one penny can buy two paper candies.

Zhang Jingxian laughed and said, "Tell me what you want to borrow from me. But I'm telling you, if you borrow something from me, I won't share the money with you."

"I need to borrow something. Do you have yellow paper or cinnabar at home?" Zhang Shanhai asked.

"Well, what do you want this thing for? Do you want to learn how to draw talismans? That won't work. If you let me know, I will kill you and come to our house. I'd better share the money with you." Zhang Jingxian said.

.

"I just want these two things for painting and fun!" Zhang Shanhai looked determined.

Zhang Jingxian didn't want to agree at first, but then he thought about it, these two things are not a big deal, and he can't cause any trouble even if he is a little kid. Isn't it just to fool people by drawing the talisman by himself? He is a hairless boy.

What other tricks can be played?

"Okay! You're a smart boy. I have both of these things, so I'll get some for you. But even with these two things, do you know what else you need if you want to draw amulets?" Zhang Jing asked first.

"Of course I know. Don't you need to use the blood of animals as a guide to mix the cinnabar before you can draw the talisman?" Zhang Shanhai said.

Zhang Jing was shocked, "Who told you this little brat?"

"Have you never eaten pork or seen pigs running?" Zhang Shanhai asked rhetorically.

Zhang Jing was choked by Zhang Shanhai and didn't know what to say.

Madam Zhang Jingxian actually laughed like a bell.

"Shan Hai, come in and sit down for a while, let your elders find something. My elder mother will find something delicious for you." Zhang Jingxian's mother-in-law first asked Zhang Shanhai to sit down, then returned to the room and rummaged through an earthenware jar.

Take out a yellow kraft paper bag.

Zhang Shanhai and his father went to the supply and marketing cooperative to wrap candies. The salesperson from the supply and marketing cooperative placed the candies in the center of a square piece of kraft paper, then wrapped it into a very delicate bag and tied it up with a rope. Although the kraft paper was ugly and rough,

The wrapped sugar packets are like works of art in Zhang Shanhai's eyes.

Zhang Jingxian's mother-in-law opened the paper bag, and sure enough there were some paper-wrapped sugar and some biscuits inside. Since quicklime was put in the jar, the paper-wrapped sugar still dissolved a little. Zhang Jingxian's mother-in-law grabbed a handful and took out the sugar.

Wrap it up and put it in an earthen jar.
