345. Rich
After all, this is a community with various groups of people living in it. If Father Li and Mother Li’s momentum of raising chickens is not stifled, other users may also have similar results. Then for the property company,
But it’s a problem. You can’t turn a community with a beautiful environment and a good location into a breeding base.
Regarding this matter, Li Kui had tried to dissuade his parents several times before, but they were all rejected with reasonable reasoning. Although the family conditions are now much better than before, the habit of being simple, diligent and thrifty cannot be lost. Now there is a vegetable market outside.
The vegetables and meat sold online are so expensive. It doesn’t take much to raise them yourself. At least you can save some money, right?
But now the property company has come forward and warned the two old men that although they are reluctant to give up, they cannot continue to breed. After all, if the situation does not improve, the property company may consider asking his own son Li Kui to have a conversation.
My children are already very busy with their daily work. They arrive home late at night every day. When they get home, they eat a few mouthfuls of food in a hurry and then dive into bed to rest. Moreover, it can be seen that the pressure of work is also very high. How can I not give it to myself?
If the child causes more trouble, then we shouldn’t do that.
"Uncle, I won't drink anymore. After all, I have a child now. Drinking is a bit of a waste. When the child is older, I will definitely drink with you endlessly. Auntie, you don't have to waste too much. I can eat whatever you usually eat."
No, it’s all my family members who don’t have to deal with the politeness.”
Gu Cheng saw that the aunt had already started to take action, and immediately stood up to express what he meant. If his arrival brought trouble to the two old people, it would be better not to come.
"If you don't want to drink, just drink. It doesn't matter. The chicken will be killed sooner or later. If we kill it all at once, we won't be able to eat much. Plus, Kuizi eats out all day and rarely comes back to eat. You're here.
Let’s get rid of this meat and relieve some of the pressure on us.”
Seeing the two old men's resolute attitude, Gu Cheng couldn't shirk anymore and had no choice but to sit on the sofa and continue chatting with Father Li about home affairs. Mother Li here also came to the yard neatly with a kitchen knife and looked at
The chicks, which were slightly larger than before, sighed helplessly, reached out and grabbed two of them resignedly, wiped them on each other's necks, and skillfully used a bowl to catch the blood that flowed out.
Although she is older now and her hands and feet are no longer as flexible as when she was young, she is still a person who came out of a mountain village. The labor of daily life has made her body much better than her peers, such as killing chickens and cooking.
In their mountain village, this is a skill that every housewife must have.
What makes her regretful is that these chicks were specially brought from home, and they suffered a lot of travel along the way.
I had made an appointment with a familiar person in the same village, asking him to drive the old couple to the Zhou market together. However, there was something urgent at home, and I couldn't go as promised. In addition, my son here urged me hard, saying
The house has been rented, and every day of delay will require payment of rent. The old couple gritted their teeth, bought their own tickets, and boarded the train to Zhoushi directly with their large and small bags.
I heard my son tell me on the phone that the house they rented this time had an independent courtyard, which gave the couple some ideas. They brought some rapeseed and chicken seedlings from home, hoping that through their own efforts, they could provide
It’s a filling meal at home, and the chicken chicks from their mountain village have firm and tender meat, which can be said to be a very nutritious ingredient.
Several chickens almost died on the train, but the old couple's breeding skills were very good, and they were worried all the way, and finally brought these chicks to Zhoushi safely.
Now, these chickens will be slaughtered and eaten before they grow up. In Mother Li's mind, it is indeed a waste, but thinking that they are used to entertain the process, she doesn't feel so sad.
"I heard that Kuizi said that you are writing a book recently, which is amazing. I didn't expect that you would become a great writer after not seeing each other for several years. Moreover, during your award ceremony, Kuizi even made a point of letting us watch you at home.
I have to say that the performance on his head is calm and majestic, and he looks like a pillar of talent at first glance."
Mother Li was busy in the kitchen, and Father Li, who was entertaining guests, was not idle either. While pouring tea for Gu Cheng, he praised the other person's current career.
This rhetoric is not deliberately exaggerated. As a man from a mountain village, it is very rare for people to be literate in their hometown, and there are even some cases of illiteracy.
If there is someone around you who has become a great writer, for them, their face will have some brilliance. Knowing this kind of person, it seems that they can be imbued with some literary spirit. When they go out and brag to people in the same village, their tone will be much louder.
And to be honest, if a writer like Gu Cheng could really go to a mountain village like theirs, he would definitely be regarded as the most distinguished guest by the local government and celebrities from all walks of life.
Therefore, his praise of Gu Cheng was sincere, and because of his own knowledge, he had always admired those who made money with their pens.
After all, if these people were placed in ancient times, they would either become princes or nobles or gentry.
With Father Li's constant compliments and Gu Cheng's humble responses, Mother Li quickly prepared today's lunch.
Gu Chengcai seemed to be relieved when he heard the other party shouting that dinner was ready. There was nothing he could do about it. Ever since he learned about his profession, Father Li seemed to be very keen to discuss some literary issues with Gu Cheng.
He was also very interested in the author's process of publishing a book, and kept asking about the overall plan and itinerary. And within a few words, he had to express his admiration for Gu Cheng.
If the other party was a young person, Gu Cheng would not feel so embarrassed and helpless. However, the person who said these words was his elder and someone he had always respected. He really had no way to shirk or refute, so he could only respond with a blushing face.
He said words that were very flattering to him.
Because there were guests at home today, Father Li and Mother Li also made a rare spree. In the past, they would casually order some noodles for lunch to get things done.
What's great is that you put a few eggs in the noodles and it's a 10-cent sumptuous lunch. If the son comes back in the evening, it will definitely be a different matter, but if it's just the two of them, basically everything should be kept simple.
But today at noon, it can be said that I took out everything from my hometown, including sausages brought from my hometown, and fish soup made from fresh fish I just bought from the market in the morning.
