Whose farming family has the male protagonist giving three piglets as a gift at the beginning?

Old Man Li glanced sideways, "Qing Yatou, what did you buy? A basket of sawdust?"

"Duck eggs." Su Ziling smiled and stabilized the backpack.

"Duck eggs?" Old Man Li's voice rose a little, "Duck eggs, I'll hurry up, don't let you shatter them."

"It's okay, Uncle Li. There are sawdust inside. It won't break if it's shaken."

"Why did you buy so many duck eggs? You can't finish them in a short while, and the weather is hot now. If you keep them for ten days and a half, the yolks will stick to the shells." Old Man Li said while driving the car .

"It won't last that long. I took it home, processed it, and sold it to a restaurant." Su Ziling explained.

"Oh, that's it. Do you still need me to ask for you?" Old Man Li thought, she must have seventy or eighty baskets on her back. There are so many, so I'm afraid she won't need them anymore.

"Yes, as many as you want, but there is a condition that the duck eggs must be fresh, and those that are older than seven days will not be used."

After Su Ziling finished speaking, Old Man Li called out to the man behind him, "Zhuzhu, I remember that your family raises ducks. Do you have any duck eggs?"

When the man named Zhuzi heard this, his eyes lit up and he was so excited that he said incoherently, "Yes, yes, yes,"

Noticing Su Ziling's gaze, he chuckled and scratched his head, "Yes, I guess there are thirty or forty of them. They won't last more than seven days. When they can't be sold, most of them are eaten by my own family."

Su Ziling nodded, "That's fine. I can't get it today. Let's bring it to the village entrance tomorrow morning at the end of Chen Shi (9:00)."

"Ai, ai, good!" The man was so excited that he belted twice in a row, giggled, and rubbed his hands gently.

"Old man Li, your village is big and there are many people. When the time comes, could you please help me and ask who still has it? I can just deliver it to the village tomorrow morning."

"Hey, okay, I've remembered it." Old Man Li smiled, "You're so big, it makes me want to raise a few. Our village is also more suitable for raising ducks. We drive them out during the day and at night. Come back and close it, it will be more obedient than a chicken."

"These chickens are different. If they are wild, they will run to other people's crops as soon as they are released. The same goes for eggs. They will lay wherever they have time and will not recognize their nests. It is a waste to raise chickens."

"Uncle, this duck is not easy to raise. It is easy to survive, but it is not valuable. No one buys duck eggs, no one eats ducks, and ducks do not live long."

"There is an old duck in my family. I have only raised it for four years. It is already old. It wobbles when walking and can't even jump up. I said to kill it and eat it. My father couldn't bear it. Well, he died the next day. It’s outside the gate.”

With a sad look on his face, Zhuzi said a lot in one breath, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Ziling burst out laughing, "Ducks don't live long, so they should be killed."

She thought of her grandma in her previous life. Her grandma was the same. She was reluctant to eat the livestock raised at home and raised them to the end of her life.

On this day, there were probably more than two hundred duck eggs that were cobbled together here and there. Su Ziling thought that she would have to go to her grandmother's house another day. There was a lot of water and fish there, and they probably raised a lot of ducks.

Giving away two to three hundred eggs in the first month is probably about the same, and I think I can collect a lot more after visiting a few more villages.

Seven cents each, even if you make three hundred eggs a month, that's still two taels of silver, and it doesn't take much effort to make this preserved egg.

However, she felt that 300 eggs a month would definitely not be enough to sell. In the later stage, it was estimated that it would be possible to sell 100 eggs a day. Although she could not make much money now, mosquito legs were also meat, so we had to consider the long term.

This market is really going to open up. From now on, even a preserved egg can make a few taels of silver a day.

When I got home, it was Shenshi (15:00-17:00). Only Axiu and Su A'nai were at home, and Mr. Su and the others were still harvesting corn.

"You're back?" Seeing them entering, Su A'nai greeted them, "Why did you buy so many things? If I had known, I would have asked your eldest brother to go with you."

Grandma Su took the backpack for her and placed it gently on the ground, "This backpack doesn't belong to our family, right?"

"Mine is not heavy, but Uncle Yongan's is quite heavy. The meat is all there." Su Ziling put down her backpack and turned around to pick up Su Yongan's.

"The backpack is a new one I bought. I only took one backpack with me when I went out in the morning, which was not enough."

"Yong'an, put it down quickly. Are you tired? This basket must weigh seventy or eighty pounds, right?" Su A'nai also helped support it.

"Not tired, not much." Su Yongan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Su Ziling brought two ladles of well water and gave him a ladle. It was too hot, the things on their backs were heavy, and they were hiking up the mountain. Both of them were very tired.

Grandma Su looked at the basket of sawdust and was confused, "What did you buy? Sawdust?"

Su Ziling chuckled, walked over, peeled off the sawdust on it, and revealed the duck eggs inside, "I bought a hundred duck eggs."

"How much?" Su A'nai exclaimed.

"a hundred."

"There's so much, can you finish it?"

"Bought it back to make preserved eggs. Don't you also like eating preserved eggs with green peppers? I also bought a hundred kilograms of brown rice. I will pick it up tomorrow morning. It will be used to cook preserved eggs and lean meat porridge. I remember cooking it last time, grandma You like to eat very much!"

Su Ziling was holding back her anger.

Su A Nai: "..."

"Are you serious?"

"Yeah!" Su Ziling nodded.

"Buy a hundred duck eggs to make preserved eggs, and a hundred pounds of brown rice just to cook preserved egg and lean meat porridge?" Su A'nai asked again, unwilling to give up.

"Yes!" The girl's face was frank, her eyes were clear and translucent, and there was no sign of lying.

Su A'nai was stunned. She looked at the basket of duck eggs and then at Su Ziling. She wanted to say, if she likes to eat, she can't bear to eat like this, right?

One hundred! Not ten or twenty!

Seeing Su A Nai's numb expression, Su Ziling burst out laughing.

She held Su Ah Nai's hand and shook it gently, "Grandma, I'm teasing you. Why don't I take some preserved eggs to the restaurant today? Shopkeeper Wang likes our preserved eggs very much and made an appointment with me." Hundreds, so I went to buy some and made them later, and delivered them to the restaurant in a few days."

Grandma Su breathed a sigh of relief. When she saw the smiling Su Ziling, she was furious and poked her forehead with her finger, "You, you! You are used to playing tricks on Grandma, is it fun?"

"Hey, I was wrong, grandma!" But I'll dare next time!

"Didn't you ask your fourth uncle's mother-in-law's family to keep them for you? Now that you have bought so many, her family doesn't want them anymore?" Looking at so many preserved eggs, Su A'nai frowned.

"Yes, I asked Old Man Li and the others to ask for some. I will pick them up when I go to deliver the fungus paste tomorrow morning. I guess there will be seventy or eighty more."

Seeing that Su A Nai was worried, she comforted her: "Don't worry, A Nai. These preserved eggs are just not enough to sell. How can we not sell them? We can buy a duck egg for less than a penny and sell it for seven penny." For one dollar, if you go out and get the raw materials, you can still make about five cents for a duck egg."
