On the anniversary of the death of my wife and daughter, I am reborn

They went out to buy pigs when the heat had subsided a little.

There are many people going out to do farm work at the moment, so you will naturally meet many people on the road.

Zhao Xinghang didn’t know him, but Zhao Jingyu knew him!

Whenever anyone asked, he told those people they were going to buy pigs.

The child was happy and let him go.

Zhao Xinghang smiled all the way and responded.

Nowadays, families that can raise two or more pigs should be considered pretty good.

Generally speaking, people just raise a pig, which is enough to feed the whole family.

Liu Yunlan, who came to sell piglets, must have a very good family in the village.

So when people heard that they were going to buy pigs and saw Zhao Xinghang carrying two pigs with their own eyes, many people found it incredible and even a little envious.

Is this still the former Zhao Wanxiang’s home?

Is this still the unsatisfactory Zhao Xinghang from before?

Although no one has seen him very often, some of his deeds have spread throughout the village.

And now this man with a bad record was not only seen working in the fields, but he also bought a piglet for his family.

Their family has really undergone a big change.

Put the little pig into the pig pen, and the two little pigs are running around in the pen happily.

Sisi also wanted to watch the pig, so Zhao Xinghang held Sisi and watched together.

"Dad, that piggy runs so fast!"

Sisi pointed to the piggy that was running the happiest and said.

Zhao Xinghang specially chose two lively ones to come back, so that he could make a living easier.

The two little pigs cost dozens of yuan, which he thought was a bargain.

But he didn't tell Yu Xiuying the specific price, he just said it was very cheap. He also told Liu Yunlan over there that if Yu Xiuying asked her about it in the future, he would tell her it was very cheap.

Because he knows that tens of dollars are very valuable now, and the elderly will feel particularly distressed.

Yu Xiuying was also happy. She asked Zhao Lingyuan to go to the cellar early to get sweet potatoes, mix them with some vegetables and rice bran, and make pig food for the pigs.

"Feed the pigs better so that they can gain weight quickly and we can eat meat during the Chinese New Year!"

Yu Xiuying seemed to have recovered from her illness and was thinking only about fattening the pigs.

Because of the two pigs, there is a lot more joy in the house.

There was no farm work to do the next day, but they had to go to the market!

Zhao Wanxiang is going to sell Baogu.

Zhao Xinghang decided to go to the market with his family, just to enjoy the fun.

Originally, Yu Xiuying planned to stay at home and feed the pigs.

Chen Youcai, who happened to be passing by the night before, heard them talking about this and agreed to come over at noon to help them feed the pigs.

This can be regarded as a return of favor.

After enough pig food was cooked in the pot, the family packed up and went out.

The road outside them continued down to another town.

This town is called Yufeng Town, which is much smaller than Longyi Town.

But the distance to the village is shorter.

The bus they took back ended at Yufeng Town.

So they just have to wait on the road for the bus to go there.

They were waiting for the earliest one in the morning.

After arriving at the destination and getting off the bus, it was just past seven in the morning.

But there were already a lot of people at this time.

They have arrived very late!

In this era, there are market days.

The days for going to the market are generally divided according to the dates of the lunar calendar. Here in Yufeng Town, the days of the third, sixth and ninth day of the lunar calendar are designated as the market days.

For example: the third day of the lunar month, the sixth day of the lunar month, the ninth day of the lunar month, the thirteenth...the twenty-ninth day.

There are three market days out of ten days.

The day before going to the market, many farmers will prepare what they will sell the next day.

The vegetables, corn, and rice at home, or the cattle, sheep, and piglets at home, as long as they can be sold, are all prepared.

Get up early the next day, take these prepared things, and go to the market to find a good position to sell.

The market is very lively, like a main street in the city, forming a small farmers' market.

The sounds of vendors, people bargaining, and talking about raw materials and poultry filled the streets, making it very lively.

Only in such a small town can the liveliness of this kind of market be truly reflected.

For example, in Longyi Town, there are many workers and people in work units, and the living standard there is much higher than that in Yufeng Town.

So many times, on market days, although there are more people on the street than usual, this feeling is not very strong.

Because there are usually not very few people there.

It was also the first time for Sisi to come to this town, and her eyes lit up when she saw the scene on the street.

"Dad, there are so many people here! There are also ducks and pigs!"

"Yes, Sisi needs to hold her mother's hand tightly, otherwise she will easily get lost and be picked up by bad guys!"

Sisi nodded her little head vigorously, and then tightened Xu Xinrou's hand.

They arrived late, the good seats had been taken up, and even the bad seats were very few.

Zhao Xinghang carried a pole of corn and found a corner location.

Usually when Zhao Wanxiang comes to sell by himself, he always rides the old and broken bicycle at home that comes early.

That bike was brought back from the city when I came back.

My family came to the market today and we all took the bus together, so we were late.

But he wasn't angry either, instead he was happy.

This is the first time that the whole family comes to the market together.

Although it is Zaobaogu in July, it is also sold outside. In addition, their location is not very good, so it is not very popular.

Zhao Lingyuan looked outside anxiously:

"Why don't these people come in? I just took a look and our corn is obviously bigger than those outside."

Zhao Wanxiang smoked his cigarette calmly:

"Wan'er, why are you so anxious? If you can't sell it, you'll have to take it back. We can eat it ourselves!"

Zhao Lingwan looked at the two bamboo baskets and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

How long does it take for a family to eat so much?

Zhao Xinghang thought of a way.

In the past, when we sold fruits, shaved ice, etc., we could let the cute Sisi eat aside to attract everyone's attention.

You can't just give Sisi some raw corn to chew.

"Selling Baogu, fruit-wrapped Gu, Nuobao Gu! Not sweet or glutinous, no money required!"

Zhao Xinghang made his hands look like a trumpet and shouted outside.

This "no money" has attracted a lot of people's attention.

Some people didn't even hear that they were selling anything, they just heard that there was no charge and came over.

There were a few scattered people walking towards inside.

Zhao Lingwan and Zhao Jingyu saw this and imitated their brother's example and shouted outside.

When he saw women older than him, even those in their 50s and [-]s, Zhao Xinghang shouted:

"Sister, take a look at the Baogu we have here! It's very delicious!"

Zhao Lingwan and Zhao Jingyu both looked at the brother in front of them in disbelief.

"Sister-in-law, does my brother have bad eyesight? He is obviously about the same age as my mother!"
