82 Give the Sweet Potato Boy a Pumpkin
After all, Tangchi was not a native village girl, and she had no such frugal ideas.
Widow Zhang couldn't resist her, so she had to let her cut the pumpkin.
The two of them cooked a large pot of pumpkin and pork ribs soup. I wonder if it was because they rarely eat meat, but they both thought the pumpkin and pork ribs soup was particularly delicious. They ate the cakes brought by Widow Zhang and were very satisfied.
"What are you making a fuss about? Why did you feed the rabbit meat?" Widow Zhang said as she saw Tang Chi actually carrying the rabbit to the table and feeding it meat.
The rabbit was very good and didn't run around at the dinner table. It just ate the meat that Tangchi fed it.
"I actually ate it!" Widow Zhang was a little surprised, but she didn't agree with Tangchi feeding the meat to the rabbit.
It’s not easy for a person to eat a meal of meat, so how can he feed it to a rabbit?
Tangchi saw what Widow Zhang was thinking, and said while stroking the rabbit: "Sister Zhang, don't worry! I will definitely be able to eat meat every time in the future!"
In fact, Widow Zhang didn't know that the rabbits in Tangchi were always fed good stuff. In fact, even the county magistrate ate the same mushrooms as the rabbits.
Widow Zhang looked at the soup pool, then at the rabbit rubbing against the soup pool while eating meat, and said nothing.
Many things in the vegetable field were ripe. It was already dark when Widow Zhang left. Tangchi went to the vegetable field in the dark and picked a big pumpkin for her to take back.
In the dead of night, Tangchi took out the three taels of silver and put them under the pillow together with the original copper coins.
The next day, Tangchi went to the city to sell mushrooms as before, but she only took out what was left from yesterday's sale.
She still understands that things are valuable when they are rare, and things become less valuable when there are more of them.
Yesterday, the Zhenxiu Restaurant launched a new dish that costs ten taels of silver. Even the county magistrate came to support it. At a stall opposite the Zhenxiu Restaurant, a little girl tried out the new dish and sold it for five hundred taels per catty.
Mushrooms, these two things have caused quite a stir and have become a topic of conversation among city people these days, and eating mushrooms has gradually become a sign of wealth or status in the city.
So, not long after Tangchi arrived today, someone came to buy mushrooms.
The people who came to buy were all wealthy people, and they were very happy to buy. The mushrooms were sold out before we even got there in the morning.
Just when Tangchi was closing the stall, two people suddenly appeared next to them.
It's Zhong Cheng and Zhao Liu.
"Brother Zhong." Tangchi put down the things in his hands and shouted in a flattering manner. Ruffians are the worst people to offend.
Zhong Cheng, the little bully in the city, has also heard about the mushrooms in Tangchi these days, and he just came to take a look out of curiosity. Is this little village girl really that capable of selling mushrooms for five hundred cents a pound?
"Here is what I plan to take back to eat, you can try it!" Tangchi pushed the remaining mushroom chicken slices on the small plate in front of Zhong Cheng and said with a smile.
In fact, these are the ones left in Tangchi to pick and throw away.
This is a dish that costs ten taels of silver at Zhenxiu Restaurant. If it were normal times, there would be no chance to eat it.
Zhong Cheng was not polite. He looked at Tangchi and sneered, then picked up the stick and ate almost the rest. Zhao Liu beside him watched helplessly, drooling but did not dare to speak.
Thinking back to the way Zhao Liu followed Zhong Cheng in such a dogged manner every time, Tang Chi felt even more happy.
If it were in the past, she might have laughed happily, but now, Tangchi's face was as normal and she didn't show any emotion.
Tangchi's stall was originally covered by the county magistrate, and now it has something to do with Yuan Li. Zhong Cheng didn't dare to touch her casually. In addition, Tangchi was smiling and did everything well. He also chose
I made no mistake, so I had to stay in front of the stall for a while and then left.
When leaving, Zhao Liu turned back and glared at Tangchi.
Tangchi didn't understand, when did she provoke him? Or did she just fail to control her expression and let others see that she was laughing at him?
For several days, Tangchi only went to town for a while in the morning and returned before noon, and collected vegetables at home in the afternoon.
If you don't collect the things from the vegetable field, you will get old.
Tangchi collected all the pumpkins, peas, and corn from the vegetable field by himself and stored them in a corner of the house.
The rabbit followed obediently at Tangchi's feet, following her from the vegetable field to the yard, and from the yard to the house.
Finally, one person and one rabbit collapsed from exhaustion and sat down in front of a pile of vegetables.
But looking at these dozen fresh pumpkins and a pile of corn and peas, Tangchi smiled as he felt the joy of harvest.
The first time she planted something, she was so successful. After gaining experience, she can plant a large number of things.
The rabbit jumped to her feet and rubbed it hard. Tangchi picked up the rabbit and rubbed it.
Sometimes, Tangchi even felt that this rabbit was spiritual. He never made trouble or caused trouble, and would even come over and act coquettishly at the right time, making her heart soften.
Looking at the pumpkins piled together, Tangchi suddenly thought of a person - the sweet potato boy who gave her pumpkin seeds.
When he brought the pumpkin seeds, she had said that she would give him some pumpkin seeds when they grew. However, she did not see the sweet potato boy for several days, so Tangchi had to go to the sweet potato boy's house to deliver pumpkins.
Although, his parents seem to dislike her very much.
She was going to give it to the sweet potato boy, who cares about his parents? After thinking about it, Tangchi felt much better.
"Be good, stay at home for a while, and I'll go deliver two pumpkins to you." Tangchi smiled and touched the rabbit's head.
The rabbit squatted at the door of the house, raised its front legs, and looked at the soup pond as it went out.
After living in this village for half a year, Tangchi basically knows who lives in the village.
It was noon, every household was having dinner, and there were very few people wandering around the village. Tangchi found the home of the sweet potato boy smoothly.
The yard doesn't look big, neither new nor old, but the things in the yard are quite complete.
"Is Brother Hong Kang at home?" Tangchi stood at the door, placed two pumpkins at his feet, and knocked on the door and asked.
"Who is it?" Tangchi's mother walked out.
"Aunt." Tangchi called with a smile.
Seeing that it was Tangchi, Hong Kang's mother's expression immediately changed, but she still smiled and said with a little flinch: "Tangchi, what's going on?"
Tangchi pretended not to see the change in her expression and said with a smile: "Aunt, I'm here to give Brother Hong Kang two pumpkins." As she said that, she picked up the two big pumpkins at her feet.
Hong Kang's mother looked at the pumpkin and then at the soup pool, and said with a smile: "Kang'er is not at home."
He was not at home during lunch? Where would he go? Tangchi was a little confused.
"It's not easy for you. You should keep this pumpkin for yourself."
