Love in the Siheyuan: Starting from Jia Dongxu

"Dongxu, I'm going to go to our house first, you can come find me later."

Qin Huairu greeted Jia Dongxu and walked towards Jia Dongxu's house.

"Okay, you pack up first, I'll go take a look later." Jia Dongxu said. If he didn't stay there at night, he could go take a look during the day.

After that, Jia Dongxu continued to lead the group. After he finished talking about the duties of making pig food, Jia Dongxu looked at them and said, "Go back and get the baskets to cut grass for the pigs. Send it to Second Uncle's house later, and I'll tell you how to feed them.

"Okay, Brother Dongxu." Several people obediently went home to prepare to cut grass for the pigs.

Seeing that Jia Dongxu had finished arranging the work, Jia Zhenye pulled Jia Dongxu towards his home, "Dongxu, your second mother asked me to call you home today no matter what."

"Ah? Are you going to give me a salary?"

After hearing this, Jia Dongxu smiled and asked, when Jia Zhenye gave the appointment letter, he said that the salary included meals.

"Okay, but your salary can't just come from Jiajia Village, Qinjia Village has to pay as well." Jia Zhenye said with a smile. "Dongxu, what do you think about merging Jiajia Village and Qinjia Village into one village? Divide into Group One and Group Two."

"If this is divided into two villages, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble in the future."

"This matter needs approval from the township, right? If two villages are doing so much, won't the other villages be jealous?"

Jia Dongxu asked curiously. The movement in these two villages was quite big, and most of the wives in the villages were from nearby villages. It would spread everywhere in a few days.

"I'm jealous. Sure, they can make it themselves!"

Jia Zhenye said generously, as long as they can do it, I will provide guidance.

Jia Dongxu felt that this was a bit off. "Bah, I think you are tired of being the village chief and want to be the township chief."

"I didn't think so before you said it. Now that you say it, I feel a little itchy in my heart." Jia Zhenye couldn't help but smile when he heard it.

Jia Dongxu said angrily, "Come on, you are getting more and more ridiculous. Do you still want me to be your secretary as the township head?"

"Go away, go away. How can a village head have a secretary? He does all the work by himself."

"But, Second Uncle, if you can handle these things well and lead everyone to live a good life, you might really have a chance to become the village chief."

"No, I don't want to suffer that. There will be no one to take over the affairs of the village. If I go to manage the township, I will have to leave the affairs of the village behind in the future."

"Haha, but I think you can become a village chief by then."

I am the head of the village? Why should I come to the village to suffer this? I am a good cadre of the steel mill. Isn't it nice to work in the factory?

"No, no, I don't have that ability. Being a village chief would harm people." Jia Dongxu said, shaking his hands.

"Alas, we country people are not lucky." Jia Zhenye sighed.

"Shall we have a drink together tonight? Your uncle said he would go to the river to catch some fish to go with the drink."

"Okay, uncle can do it, he can also fish."

"That's right. Your uncle can't get out of bed right now, so let him go fishing to kill time." Jia Zhenye said with a smile, "My family can eat fish every day."

"Your uncle said early in the morning that he would catch a big fish for you."

"No, don't let the big fish get pulled into the water by the fish." He continued with a smile and said, "Let's go see how Uncle is fishing."

Jia Dongxu likes fishing, but he just doesn't have the time.

"No, let's go feed the pigs first. Those young people work very fast." Jia Zhenye hurriedly grabbed Jia Dongxu. He was afraid that Jia Dongxu would not be able to walk after going fishing.

"Oh, I'll go take a look!" Jia Dongxu said hurriedly. He was itching to do something after hearing what Jia Zhenye said.

"In the afternoon, go in the afternoon!" Jia Zhenye directly dragged Jia Dongxu to his home. Sure enough, those girls and boys all carried baskets full of pig feed.

"Chop up all the pig grass and find some clean ones to make pig feed." Jia Dongxu said helplessly.

"Uncle, go prepare the pot. You guys go move some big rocks and put the pot on the stove. Then light the fire. You girls go cut the pig grass."

Jia Dongxu quickly assigned tasks to several people. Looking at the piglets in a corner of Jia Zhenye's yard, Jia Zhenye found two old wooden basins from somewhere and fed them water.

After looking at the messy yard, I knew I would have to ask them to clean it up and keep the pig house clean.

Watching several people busying themselves, Jia Dongxu pulled Jia Zhenye over and said, "Uncle, if we ask them to clean the pig house, will they be willing?"

"Well, you look down on me for this. Let me tell you, I told them secretly. They were the employees of the pig farm."

"Second uncle, you are so good at drawing cakes."

Jia Dongxu couldn't help but sigh, this second uncle is really amazing. Nowadays, young people just want to work in a factory. This pig farm is also a factory, right?

But if they can really hold on, these people will be treasures in the future.

"Uncle, have any of them ever been to school?" Jia Dongxu asked after thinking for a while.

"Does elementary school count?" Jia Zhenye asked with a smile. Jia Dongxu thought about it and thought that if he graduated from elementary school, he should be able to understand this pig farming guide, right?

I will go to my father-in-law's house and get the book later, give it to them first, and then let them learn from the book.

Soon the pig food was cooked and Jia Dongxu brought over the old wooden basin.

The cooked pig food must be cooled before feeding it to the pigs. Jia Dongxu said as he put the pig food into the basin.

"Uncle, there aren't enough basins here. We need to get more. Otherwise, the piglets will bite you when they try to grab the food."

Jia Dongxu quickly reminded him, saying, "When raising pigs, you must pay attention and put in more pig troughs, otherwise the pigs will fight when you feed them."

"No problem, I'll go get the manger."

As Jia Zhenye spoke, he went to the stable and moved the trough inside the piglets so that they would not be crowded.

Jia Dongxu poured the cooled pig food into the trough and put two basins in it.

The little piglets swarmed over to grab the food.

Jia Dongxu pointed to the yard and said, "Now that the weather is getting colder, the piglets can't sleep directly on the ground, otherwise they will easily catch a cold and get sick. We need to lay a layer of straw."

"In the afternoon, you should clean up the yard and put some clean straw in it."

"Haha, let's get some more straw today and tomorrow, dry it in the sun, and then chop it up to prepare winter food for these piglets."

"Okay, study hard. The pig farm will depend on you in the future." Jia Zhenye pointed at the young people in front of him and said, "Dongxu said that he wants to expand the pig farm to raise 1000 pigs."

"1000 pigs! How much does that cost?" Several people said in surprise after hearing this.

Jia Dongxu was very satisfied with the reactions of the people. He pointed at the piglets and said, "These piglets were obtained from the pig farm in Tongzhou. They raised 3000 adult pigs."

"We should follow their example and make our pig farm bigger and stronger."
