Hua Zhao went up the mountain again the next day, firstly to absorb energy and improve his physical condition, and secondly, to find something to eat.
The nutrition of cabbage and potatoes every day is unbalanced, which is not conducive to the patient's recovery and the growth of the fetus...
Hua Zhao touched her belly happily, her eyes full of tenderness.
She walked out of the yard and met a male villager.
When the man saw Hua Zhao, he was stunned for a moment, then rolled his eyes at Hua Zhao, hugged the things in his arms tightly, and walked away quickly.
He didn't hug Hua Zhao, so he didn't notice it. When he moved, Hua Zhao saw that he was holding a black little piglet in his arms.
Hua Zhao's eyes lit up and he shouted: "Wait a minute!"
The man was so frightened that he ran away with the pig in his arms.
"Why are you running! I'm not going to rob your pig! When did I, Hua Zhao, rob something?"
These words actually made the man stop in his tracks. Thinking about it, it was true.
Although Hua Zhao was notorious in the village for being traitorous, lazy, greedy, unreasonable, irritable, and fond of beating others, he had never used brute force to snatch anything from anyone.
"I'm just asking you who bought this piglet from? Does his family still have one? I want to buy one too," Hua Zhao said.
Oh, that's it, the man breathed a sigh of relief. Hua Zhao was famous for her brute strength. None of the children in the village who had been beaten by her dared to seek revenge from her again, which made the adults like them afraid.
"There are still a few sold by Liu Laosan's family," the man said.
It's already 1976, and matters concerning "private trading" are no longer so strict. Some rural families raise old sows, and the piglets they give birth to can be sold at will.
"Thank you." Hua Zhao shouted, turned around and left.
The man was stunned on the spot, looking back at her back in surprise. Thank you? Hua Zhao actually said thank you to him? It's quite natural? Isn't she the one who beats her father and scolds her mother?
Also, she was actually carrying a pole and a basket, as if she were working up the mountain. Isn’t she someone who wouldn’t help her when the oil bottle fell?
Gee, the rumors are not credible.
Hua Zhao didn't go out much, so Hua Qiang naturally wouldn't say bad things about her, let alone say that he was scolded by his granddaughter. The rumors about Hua Zhao in the village were all conveyed by Hua Xiaoyu when she went home, and then spread by the Huashan family.
Hua Zhao continued to go up the mountain, and now he had another reason to go up the mountain, to make money!
How can rural people not have chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, and pigs at home?
Chicken, that's called a chicken butt bank. Most people's year's worth of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar is the amount of money they get from selling eggs.
Pigs are the only side job. I usually raise two, sell one of them as a task pig, save some money, keep one and kill it, and eat it for most of half a year.
As for piglets, they now cost more than 10 yuan each.
As for chickens and ducks, most people raise their own nests and hatch them by themselves. She doesn’t have any old hens at home (she ate them all). Now she can only buy them. Each one costs about 2 cents. Most people raise about 10 of them, which is 2
Lots of blocks.
Now there may not be 2 yuan left at home. Hua Zhao calculated it as he walked.
Although the money in the family is not in the hands of the original owner, the original owner does nothing every day. He is just thinking about the little money in his grandfather's hand, calculating what to eat today and what to eat tomorrow. He promises to give it a share in a month.
Nothing left.
And even if her grandfather is rich, she doesn't want to live on other people's wages. She likes to be self-reliant.
Make money, make money, make money!
Hua Zhao is thriving and feels that life is full of motivation! She likes this feeling of starting from scratch, starting from scratch!
If she were to be reborn in the home of the richest man in the world, she wouldn't want to. She likes to work hard to become the richest man!
When she arrived in the mountains, energy surged toward her crazily, making her feel so comfortable that she wanted to scream.
Hua Zhao did not dare to stay in one place for too long, fearing that the plants in that place would exchange too much energy and blossom and bear fruit.
She walked on the path taken by the villagers and headed deep into the mountains, to the hot spring area that the original owner had visited a few years ago.
This is the northeasternmost part of the motherland, a stretch of mountains, and not far from Shantun, there is a geothermal zone.
It's not far, but it's a straight line distance. It's already noon when we reach our destination over mountains and ridges.
This is a small hot spring, with more than a dozen large and small pools connected together. There is a light mist floating on it, making the surroundings dense like a fairyland.
Hua Zhao didn't dare to get too close to the pool.
The original owner couldn't swim.
She would, but she wasn't sure if she would be able to do it after changing into a body weighing more than 200 pounds.
For your own sake, stay away from water sources.
Besides, she didn't come here to soak in a hot spring.
Hua Zhao looked around and saw that the plants here had indeed grown earlier than other places. The grass was already half a foot tall, the wild flowers were already in full bloom, and the young leaves of various nearby trees had sprouted.
She saw several elm trees at a glance.
Yuqian, Kucai, Po Po Ding, here she comes!
Hua Zhao found a small area where all kinds of edible wild vegetables were densely packed, and then they were growing, harvesting, growing, and harvesting. After a few times, half the basket was filled.
Then I went to a low elm tree, pulled down a few branches, and picked more than a pound of elm money.
After doing this, she stood up and took a closer look around her. It was quiet, with only the sound of birds chirping and not a single person in sight.
It is spring, and the villagers have almost no leisure. Everyone has to work in the fields. Almost no one has time to walk for half a day to soak in hot springs and dig wild vegetables.
Still worried, Hua Zhao walked to a dense patch of grass, squatted down, and hid his figure. Then he pulled out a small piece of weeds, revealing the dark soil, and finally planted a piece of sweet potato.
Soon, a piece of sweet potato turned into a sweet potato plant and a pile of sweet potatoes.
There were about ten of them dug out, each weighing more than a kilogram!
Then, she planted another pumpkin seed.
I harvested 5 large pumpkins, weighing about ten pounds each.
The two baskets he brought were full, and Hua Zhao pulled a few handfuls of wild grass to cover the two baskets. Then he stood by the hot spring, took out the towel he had prepared in advance, and wiped his body several times.
For most of the day, she developed another layer of black mud, which made her want to vomit.
After cleaning up and changing into the clothes she brought, she headed out into the mountains on a pole.
When we arrived at the village, we met the villagers who were finishing their work.
Everyone looked stunned when they saw the wicker basket full of flowers.
"Xiaohua, what have you been doing?" Finally, Zhao Liangcai, the team leader of Guashantun, couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Oh, it's the captain." Hua Zhao raised a smile and said, "Isn't this my family's plan to catch pigs? I'll go up the mountain to dig some pig food first, otherwise what will it eat?"
Everyone's jaw dropped in shock. Hua Zhao no longer cares about what he eats? Does he start caring about what the pigs eat?
Moreover, she actually worked! Not to mention digging two baskets of wild vegetables, even carrying so many things was incredible to them.
They knew very well that the only way to dig out a place for such a big pig to eat vegetables during this season was to a hot spring that was very far away, and it would take a day to walk there and back!
Isn’t Hua Zhao too lazy to die?
Zhao Liangcai looked at Hua Zhao in surprise. She called him uncle captain? This was even more surprising to him than Hua Zhao's work.
"Uncle captain, I'm going home first. My father is still at home waiting for me to cook." Hua Zhao didn't stop and continued walking with the pole on his shoulder. When passing by an old farmer who was looking at her in a daze, he suddenly said: "Uncle Liu San,
I heard that your family sells piglets? Leave a good one for me, I will go to your house to catch it tomorrow, don’t worry, I guarantee you won’t be short of money.”
"Ah, okay, okay..." Liu Laosan was startled and couldn't believe that it was Hua Zhao who said these normal words.
