Chapter 370

Qian Shi also heard the cry of the child, and she took out the money box.

Old Zhou Tou was about to go to bed, and when he saw the old wife taking out the money box, he was a little nervous, "What are you doing?"

Qian pondered: "I'm thinking of asking the third child to buy some pig's feet tomorrow and come back to stew for the third daughter-in-law to breastfeed. Last time I heard Man Bao talk about it occasionally, it seems that crucian carp also breastfeeds."

Lao Zhoutou immediately said: "Isn't the family feeding her eggs all the time? Whose daughter-in-law can eat so well with boiled eggs three times a day? She doesn't have milk, then she doesn't. Don't waste money."

Qian Shi gave him a sideways look and said, "You are stingy, you have to let your daughter-in-law get sick, don't you? Why did I get sick before? It's because your old Zhou family is reluctant to give me food, and every time you give birth to a child, you It's hard to come here..."

Old Zhou Tou lowered his voice an octave and whispered, "Didn't we have no money back then?"

"There was no money back then, so isn't it rich now?"

Old Zhou Tou murmured twice and defended: "I'm not afraid that your bowl of water is not level, and other daughters-in-law will have opinions?"

"Who has an opinion?"

Lao Zhoutou coughed lightly: "The fourth daughter-in-law is about to give birth, will she also buy it?"

"If she doesn't have milk, then buy it. You can't let the child howl," Qian said. "You can live strong only when you have enough to eat. This is true for adults, especially for children."

The children she gave birth survived because when they were young, as long as she had a bite to eat, she would not lose them.

When the old Zhoutou heard the words, he stopped talking.

Qian took out a bunch of money from the box, and it didn't spread out.

Old Zhoutou looked distressed, and simply lay on the bed and turned his back to ignore it.

Qian swept his back, cursed "old stingy", put the money aside and lay down.

When Man Bao got up to wash up the next day and went to write in Mr. Zhuang's small courtyard, he saw her mother handing Zhou Lang a bunch of money and asking him to buy some pig legs and stew them.

"You don't have to buy too much, just buy a few pieces, just stew for your wife, and buy a pound of meat for the family."

Wednesday Lang should go.

"You keep the rest of the money. From now on, I will buy some pork legs for your daughter-in-law every day. Eat it for a few days and see. If the milk is not enough, I will find someone else."

Wednesday Lang scratched his head and said, "Mother, I originally wanted to buy crucian carp, didn't Man Bao say that crucian carp can also breastfeed?"

"Then take your turn. If the money is not enough, tell me again."

Wednesday Lang said naively: "Mother, we also have money on our hands."

Last year, he sold a lot of ginger pieces on his wasteland. In addition to the 60% of the handover, he gave some money to the fourth or fifth who sold it on behalf of him, and there were a lot of the rest.

It was the first time for Wednesday Lang to make so much money. Of course, the money was all in the hands of his daughter-in-law He.

Qian Shi glared at him and said, "Since you have money, why don't you want to buy more food for your daughter-in-law?"

Zhou Lang shrank his neck and said, "I, I thought it was enough to eat eggs..."

Qian Shi was about to scold him when he pinched his waist, and Shi He quickly explained, "Mother, we don't know, the main reason is that we can't get milk even if we eat eggs every day..."

In fact, the current situation is better than when she gave birth to four heads. Although there seems to be a sword called natural disaster hanging on her head, but now is the time of spring ploughing, and she has just given birth. Of course, the family will not give her water. It is dry rice, or noodles or pancakes or steamed buns.

And last year, the family raised more chickens, so there are not many eggs in the family, especially when spring comes, the hens in the family love to lay eggs more.

So there are a lot of eggs.

She now eats even better than Manbao, four meals a day, and every meal has eggs. In the village, even the daughter-in-law of the village chief's family would not dare to eat like this.

So she thought the same as Lao Zhoutou in her heart. She ate so well that she couldn't breastfeed after eating so many eggs. It is estimated that this time she just didn't have enough milk.

That's why Man Bao suggested to buy sheep last night, and the couple discussed it before deciding to look for crucian carp.

However, things like fish may not be sold in Daji, and it is estimated that they will be found in the county town.

In fact, if there is no time, and there is no guarantee that you will be able to catch crucian carp, it may be faster to fish in the river at home.

Man Bao yawned and floated past them. After approaching the kitchen, he took a pancake, brought his own steamed egg and sat aside, "Sister-in-law, I won't come back for lunch or dinner."

"understood."

Manbao has been eating in the field for the past two days. When the Bai family delivers lunch and dinner to the employees, they will also deliver the meals for the three of them.

Xiao Qian looked down at Man Bao, and found that Man Bao, who had always been white and round, not only lost some weight, but also darkened a little.

She was a little worried, "Manbao, if the work in the field is tiring, don't do it. If you really can't let your fifth brother go, you can't be tired and sick."

Feng shi nodded again and again, "As soon as my aunt is ill, it will be very difficult to recover."

Qian said, "That was in the past. Now Man Bao is in good health. She is the reincarnation of a fairy. In the past, it was Lord Tianzun who didn't think of Man Bao, so she was in a lot of trouble."

Little Qian nodded confidently.

Feng shi only hesitated for a while, but always felt that something was wrong.

Man Bao raised his head and thought for a while, but couldn't help but ask Keke, "Am I really not the reincarnation of a fairy?"

Keke: "...No."

Man Bao lowered his head and continued to eat without speaking.

Today is still planting wheat. For the first time, Bai Shanbao knows that spring planting is so tiring. He sits directly on the ridge, and sits in a row with Manbao to watch the employees work.

When Bai Erlang finally sowed the seeds here, he also sat down and stared blankly ahead with the two of them. He still didn't understand, "Why should we plant with them? Can't we hire a few more people? Is it? No matter how bad it is, we can wait for the people in the village to finish planting, and we are not in a hurry."

Bai Shanbao didn't think about that. What he was curious about was, "There are so few people, why do we need to plant so many fields?"

Man Bao: "To make money."

"But people in the city also have fields, and every family has fields. The food grown in so many fields is enough for their own food. Who would buy food?"

So Bai Shanbao knows that every Chengding has a Dingtian.

Man Bao was equally puzzled by this, she thought for a while and said, "I don't know, anyway, every time I go to the county seat, it seems that there are people buying rice and noodles in the grain store."

She vaguely felt that something was wrong, and pointed at the people who were farming: "If everyone has fields, why don't they?"

She said, "It seems that my father said that there are many people who have no land."

Bai Shanbao pondered, "But they don't seem to be able to afford food. Do we sell all the food we grow to them?"

Man Bao: "Well, we pay to hire them to grow food, and then sell them to make money after harvesting..."

She also felt that something was wrong.

Bai Erlang looked at this, then looked at that, and said with a drooping head: "There are too many people who have no land, and many rich people also want to buy food. What's so strange about this?"
