Begging You to Break Off This Engagement!

There is a main street in Pine Forest Town, which divides the entire town into two parts. Most of the people living in the south are rich and wealthy families, while the majority of civilians and poor people in Pine Forest Town gather in the north.Yonglin Lane is a typical example. Once you enter here, it is difficult to see a piece of good clothes, and it is difficult to see a person who looks healthy.

Most of the people here are thin and sallow, giving the impression of year-round malnutrition, and there are few in good health, just like Wan Dayun.But these people are busy with their livelihoods during the day, so it is difficult to see people here.

Today is an exception.

"Uncle, in front, the one with two big stones in front of the front door is my house." Wan Dayun's daughter said that she was leading the way, as if she was very happy that Yu Xi Yanqing could come to her house to have a look.

"Brother Xi laughed." Wan Dayun said, "I'm busy working in the butcher shop on weekdays, and few people from home come over."

"It's like this when you're busy, and sometimes you don't even have time to eat." Xi Yanqing is also a person who has lived a hard life. Working everywhere, the most difficult time may not be much better than it is now.

"Oh, I'm fine, but I've suffered for these children." Wan Dayun wiped off his sweat, and pushed the door open with a "squeak", "Erxue! There are guests at home! You pour two bowls Water out!"

"Understood, dad!" A little girl's voice came from inside again.

Xi Yanqing thought that the little girl who was left at home would be older than the one named Damei, but Wan Dayun's name was Erxue, so he was suspicious again.

Unexpectedly, a little girl came out of the room after a while, she was really smaller than the previous one.This little girl is about five or six years old, with big eyes, black eyes, and dimples when she smiles, she looks quite pleasing.She brought out two bowls of water, one for Wan Dayun and the other for Xi Yanqing: "Uncle, drink some water."

"This is my second girl." Wan Dayun moved a chair for Xi Yanqing, "Brother Xi, you can sit down wherever you want. My place is small, so don't dislike me. After I change my clothes, I will follow you to the butcher's shop." have a look."

"Brother Wan, you are welcome." It is also a kind of respect to receive guests in clean and tidy clothes as much as possible, and Xi Yanqing appreciates this.He took the water from the little girl's hand, smiled and said, "Thank you little girl."

"You're welcome," Wan Xue finished speaking, glanced at Xi Yanqing's cloth bag, and ran over to play with the other three children.

Xi Yanqing casually surveyed the surrounding environment.This is a small courtyard as soon as you enter the courtyard. When you enter the courtyard, there is a house with crooked walls. There is also a warehouse on the west side, which is also very dilapidated and looks old.Nothing was raised in the yard, but it was quiet.

The children looked at Xi Yanqing from time to time and spoke very quietly.

Xi Yanqing waved to the youngest one.

In fact, there was one thing he couldn't figure out.If he remembered correctly, what the shopkeeper Hong said at the time was that Wan Dayun's wife almost lost her life when she gave birth to her third child, and she never got sick again.Then why does Wan Dayun's family have four children? !

Shouldn't there be three normally?It is impossible to get sick once and have another one.Xi Yanqing took a closer look, and found that there was no possibility of twins among the four children, but the youngest one did not resemble the other three children in terms of eyebrows, eyes or expression.

"My mother-in-law coughed badly at night, and she couldn't sleep all night. She only slept at this time every day, and she couldn't wake up from thunder." Wan Dayun changed into a clean dress with only one patch, and told the four The little one said, "You stay at home. Dad has already boiled the medicine, and the food is in the pot. Erxue, don't forget to give it to your mother. Damei, remember to take your younger brothers and sisters to eat when it's time."

"Understood, dad, don't worry." The two little girls said in unison.

"Can they fix it?" Xi Yanqing asked Wan Dayun after leaving the door, "I think the older one is only six or seven years old."

"The older ones are nine years old, but they are still young." Wan Dayun sighed, "I couldn't help it in the past two years. I carried one on my back and led the other. This year it's getting better."

"It's really not easy." Xi Yanqing stopped after walking for a while.Because he suddenly heard a few immature voices from inside, like "It smells so good" and "Uncle must have something to eat".This reminded him suddenly that there were quite a few steamed buns in the bag and the mutton that hadn't been sandwiched into the steamed buns yet.

"What's wrong?" Wan Dayun asked.

"It's nothing, let's go." Xi Yanqing originally thought of taking out the food in the cloth bag and giving it to a few children before leaving, but after thinking about it, it was the first time he saw these children after all, and rashly gave something to them. Eat, what if a father is worried?Besides, the steamed buns and mutton are already cold, I'm afraid the children won't be able to reheat them well, so instead of ruining the taste, it's better to save it for Wan Dayun and make it for the children when he returns home.

Xi Yanqing came here this time to chat with Wan Dayun about whether he could sell his mutton. After all, it is better to take down this delivery company than to discuss with each other.

Looking at Wan Dayun's situation now, he can guess that this person has no time to raise cattle, sheep and pigs himself. That is to say, whoever buys the meat that Wan Dayun sells.

Xi Yanqing really hadn't heard of anyone raising pigs, sheep, or cattle around here.There is a bull market, but it is all self-employed, at most some people have a few more heads.

"Brother Xi, you're right. We don't have a big family here that raises pigs. There used to be a family that raised pigs, but later got swine fever. All the pigs in that batch died and there was nothing left. That family lost money." The man hanged himself directly. After that, there was no large number of pigs in this town. The family raised two or three pigs, and the more ones were five or six pigs. After the pigs were raised, they sold some money to subsidize the family. You see Seeing that the meat in my shop is being delivered every day, that’s because I went door to door a month in advance to find and negotiate with people, so that the meat didn’t run out.”

"That means there is no long-term partnership with anyone?" Xi Yanqing thinks this is good!

"Yes, it's someone else's suitable one. If I figure it out, I'll take it." Wan Dayun didn't hold back, because Xi Yanqing had helped him insure him at Shopkeeper Jing before, which made him a success today. He got the medicine for his wife, so he was grateful to Xi Yanqing from the bottom of his heart.

"Brother Wan, to be honest. One of my brothers used to own a ranch. But his family didn't raise pigs or cows, but sheep. He probably has about forty sheep in his hand, and he plans to sell some of them. I was thinking, if it is convenient for you, can you also visit us in the future. If it is suitable, you can also collect sheep from us. It will definitely be cheaper for you. "

"Of course there is no problem. If it is possible, it will save me from running around to find it."

While talking, Yunji's butcher shop also arrived.Xi Yanqing asked Wan Dayun about the daily sales volume of each type of meat, as well as price fluctuations.

He asked so carefully, if it wasn't because the shopkeeper Jing said that he sells medicinal materials and ice cream, and Wan Dayun happened to meet Xi Yanqing two or three times in the pharmacy and Fuyuelou, Xi Yanqing would have It was suspected that they were trying to steal business.

Xi Yanqing wanted to understand the market as much as possible. After all, he not only wanted to sell sheep, but also raised and sold chickens and ducks. Naturally, the more he knew, the better.

"Brother Xi, thanks to you helping me as a guarantor in front of shopkeeper Jing, you have solved a big problem for me. How about this, you stay with me for a light meal at noon before leaving. I don't have anything good here , but I can make you any kind of meat you want." There is still a stove going on here, and Wan Dayun is serious.

"Brother Wan, don't bother me. My family made me some food when I went out. If you don't like it, you are used to it, so you can eat some with me." Xi Yanqing He took out the steamed buns and mutton, "It happens that you have a stove here, heat up the steamed buns, heat up the mutton, the meat tastes good with steamed buns."

"Hey, I'm really not afraid of your jokes. I've smelled the fragrance in your bag for a long time." Wan Dayun said, "I'm going to get a jug of wine!"

"Don't, don't, you have to do business in the afternoon. Besides, my wife is pregnant with a child. If you say that I'm going to drink and go home at this juncture, if he thinks about it, where should I go to reason?" Xi Yan Qing said, "Let's drink wine until next time. We can be regarded as friends from now on, and there will always be opportunities to drink."

"Hey boy, why do I hear your wife is a tigress?"

"Tigress?" Xi Yanqing slowly broke off the steamed buns, and suddenly smiled, "I'm pregnant with my little tiger cub, so to speak of a tigress is actually about the same. But he has a sharp mouth, but a soft heart."

"Fine, then stop drinking and try your wife's cooking." Wan Dayun actually doesn't have much preference for meat. After all, this is what he sells every day. He doesn't want to eat good meat because he can't sell it. Don't you eat too much leftovers?I really didn't think it was delicious.At best, good meat tastes good.But after he put the meat into the steamed buns according to Xi Yanqing's method, he was stunned.

How can it be so delicious? !

It's also delicious!

After the steamed buns are burnt, the outer skin is golden and crispy, and you can hear the crisp sound of "click" when you bite into it, and the fried lamb is wrapped in the heart of the steamed buns. Not greasy, and the steamed buns will not feel too dry.

Wan Dayun took a big bite: "Brother Xi, don't tell me, your family's skills are good."

He has been selling meat for several years and has never eaten it like this. It is always a mouthful of steamed buns and a mouthful of meat. Then he has to fry some leftovers when the family is not so tight.But at that time, I didn't think it was anything special. Why is it so delicious today?

Xi Yanqing said: "If it's not that the family is too busy, and my daughter-in-law is inconvenient to come out now, I would like to set up a stall to sell this food. Anyway, people who have eaten it say it is delicious."

Wan Dayun said, "It's delicious."

He swallowed one in a few gulps, drank some hot water, and finally ate three in total.

Don't look at people as thin, food intake is still online.Xi Yanqing reckoned that it was too embarrassing to just meet him, otherwise he would still be able to eat.

After the two had lunch, there were six left.That's right, Xi Yanqing took a lot. After all, he wanted to let the shopkeeper and owner of Fuyuelou taste it, so it's not good to take too little.Xi Yanqing didn't pack up the rest, just said: "I can still make it when I go home. Since Brother Wan thinks it tastes good, let's take it home and let some children taste it. Children like it Something new."

Wan Dayun was not polite and accepted the things, but he didn't accept them in vain.When Xi Yanqing left, he stuffed a piece of beef in a daze.The meat on the ribs, the meat with tendons, is most suitable for stewing.

Xi Yanqing just replaced the steamed buns and mutton with beef and went back.

Now that the days are getting longer and longer, Xi Yanqing came back early, and it was still light when he got home.

"Brother Qing, you're back?" Luo Fei was feeding the sheep in the yard when he heard the door open, "How is things going? Is everything going well?"

"It's hard to say now." Xi Yanqing walked over to take the small pot, "How many times have I told you not to squat like this, you will get dizzy easily when you get up."

"I know, I know. Sigh, why do I let you catch me every time I don't listen to you?" Luo Fei stood up holding Xi Yanqing's hand, "What's the point? It's hard to say now? They tried burning steamed buns Did you pick up the mutton?"

"No, I gave it to another person." Xi Yanqing told Luo Fei what happened in the town, "Anyway, at that time, if I wanted to sell our steamed buns with mutton, No matter how delicious it is, shopkeeper Hong probably won't leave a good impression on us. He is quite a person, and he is kind. So I left after delivering the ice cream. As for Wan Dayun, can he help us in the future? It’s not easy to sell this steamed bun with mutton. Now we can try to get him to accept our sheep. But I think the possibility is relatively high. After all, he is short of money now, and it seems that selling fresh meat is not enough. If he can Accepting one more item is a win-win situation.”

"Well, so, people still have to have kind thoughts in their hearts. If you don't help him, probably nothing will happen later." After entering the room, Luo Fei turned around and faced Xi Yanqing, "Brother Qing, you Do you know what is the most attractive thing about you?"

"where?"

"It just gives people a very sincere and reliable feeling." Luo Fei tilted his head and looked at Xi Yanqing, "I think, I was the one who took the lead when we first met after we got here, because you like me Ah. But then I was led away by the nose without knowing it."

"Are you kidding? When did you occupy the top?" Xi Yanqing said while changing clothes, "Have you ever seen a planter sowing seeds upside down?"

"I haven't seen it outside, we have one at home." Luo Fei poked Xi Yan's waist, "Isn't it just you?"

"Well, then you must be the one who drove the planter, how about I plant it in the sky?" Xi Yanqing pecked Luo Fei with a half-smile, "Little pervert."

"Don't get cheap and be good-looking? Besides, I'm a licensed driver. And haven't you heard of it? Whether the relationship between the two is good or not, you can tell by how often they tell dirty jokes."

"It seems to make sense." Xi Yanqing said, "Is the little tiger honest today? Did he kick you?"

"Kicked, practice boxing every morning and sleep in the afternoon." Luo Fei looked at his stomach and frowned.When it's normal, I don't feel much.It's getting bigger and bigger, it's impossible to say it's not awkward.He is different from Han Xu, he wants to "unload" quickly!

Every time Luo Fei went to see the child of Han Xu's family, the child was always very well-behaved and quiet. It can be said that Luo Fei always saw the cutest side of the little carpenter, as cute as an angel.But because of this, he was looking forward to the little tiger's arrival even more.

Little tiger's small clothes and quilts, as well as small socks, suspenders, and diapers filled a closet.

Xi Yanqing also wanted to see the child as soon as possible, but he wanted to finish building the new house as soon as possible and try to let the child be born in the new house.

After the land was thoroughly melted, the recruited workers began to dig the foundation.Since the three houses have to be built in the same way, the foundation is easier to dig, since everything is the same anyway.Size, layout, height, just figure out the picture of a house.

Luo Tian has lived in Huaping Village for so many years, and knows quite a few people. He is very particular about how people handle things, so the workers he hired are all very good, and none of them are cheating or cheating.Workers come to Jingrong at dawn in the morning, have a meal here at noon, and return at night when the sun is about to set.There are a total of fourteen workers, each of which has its own specialty.

Lunch was made by Li Yuehua and Han Liushi. Two large pots were set up in the courtyard of Jingrong's house, and the aroma of the food filled them at noon.It is definitely impossible to eat too well, but porridge, steamed buns and pickles are enough, and this is enough to make the workers happy.

Today, Luo Tian was supervising the work at Jing Rong's house as usual.As for Jing Rong and Luo Yong, they all went to Xi Yanqing to help.

Xi Yanqing plans to renovate the vegetable garden this year.Last year, he created a fruit garden for Luo Fei alone, and he grew a lot of delicious things in it. He plans to expand the area of ​​the fruit garden this year. One is to continue to satisfy Luo Fei's hunger, and the other is to increase the number of raw materials that can be used to make ice cream in the future. use.

No, it just so happens that the vegetable garden on the side of the new house is bigger than the one at the current home. Xi Yanqing intends to make full use of it. All the perennial fruit trees will be planted behind the new house, while the annual ones will be planted behind the current house. In the vegetable garden.

As for the food to eat, the vegetable garden behind Jing Rong and Luo Yong's house is enough for their family, so Xi Yanqing planned to serve fruits exclusively.

The brothers were also very happy. After Xi Yanqing tidied up the vegetable garden behind the current house, when he went to tidy up the new house, Luo Yong and Jing Rong said directly that they simply opened up the vegetable garden. , Xi Yanqing likes to grow whatever he likes, anyway, there is no shortage of vegetables to eat.

In terms of planting, Xi Yanqing's technology has an absolute advantage, which can be seen from his harvest last year.

Hearing that there is a priority, and there is a specialization in art, Luo Yong and Han Yang are very convinced.

After Han Yang prepared the rice seeds, he greeted Xi Yanqing and asked Xi Yanqing to teach him how to grow dry plants this year.

But before it was time to raise seedlings, Han Yang ran to plow the land with Luo Ji.

"What kind of fruit tree is this? Why haven't I seen it before?" Jing Rong pointed to one of the saplings while helping Xi Yan clear the saplings.

"This is a raspberry, have you never eaten it?" Xi Yanqing raised the survival rate of the raspberry, and moved it with a large piece of soil.If it weren't for the crowd, it wouldn't be easy.

"I really haven't eaten it. I've never heard of it." Jing Rong said, "Is it delicious?"

"Delicious!" Luo Fei said, "There is nothing bad about the fruits grown by Brother Qing. Raspberries, black nightshades, mountain grapes, watermelons, all of them are delicious. There are also blueberry trees."

"Brother Qi, I have eaten watermelon and mountain grapes..." Jing Rong suddenly felt a little sad.

"Then you will be lucky this year." Luo Fei licked his lips, "No, I have to get some dried plums to eat." Otherwise, the saliva in his mouth would not be able to stop.

"Is anyone home?" A voice suddenly came from outside the gate.At this moment, Xi Yanqing and Luo Yong had just finished digging all the fruit trees that could be dug.

"Someone!" Luo Fei said, "Wait a while, come right away!"

"Daughter-in-law and so on, it should be Wan Dayun, I'll go and have a look with you." Xi Yanqing called Shang Jingrong and the others, "Let's go, most likely I'm here to see the sheep, let's go and have a look together."

The person who came here was really Wan Dayun.He didn't put the mutton in the steamed buns, but he had agreed with Xi Yanqing earlier that he would also consider this side when collecting the sheep.

Xi Yanqing can be regarded as a benefactor no matter what, so Wan Dayun has been thinking about this matter.No, the sheep that had been negotiated with those retail investors before were almost collected, so he directly looked for them according to the address Xi Yanqing had left for him earlier.

Luo Yong also bought meat in the town, so he had a little impression of this man.

Jing Rong also walked around the town and saw the butcher shops, so he also had an impression.

After Xi Yanqing gave a brief introduction, he took Jing Rong and Wan Dayun to watch the sheep together.The sheep were not at home, and Luo Ru took them out to store them, so that Jing Rong could do other more laborious tasks, which can be regarded as maximizing the utilization of labor.

At this time, the weather is getting warmer and the sheep spend more time outside, because the longer they are outside every day, the more grass they eat.Fresh grass is more nutritious than dry grass, so Luo Ru can put it on for half a day before taking it home.

She is much more reliable than Luo Yong in herding sheep and counting sheep.

At this time, Luo Ru was still on the grass with the sheep.After the beginning of spring, the flock of sheep ate a lot fatter than before.They are grazing leisurely, sometimes bleating, and they are so cute.

"It's right there." Jing Rong pointed to a large piece of cloud-like whiteness on the hillside, "We have a girl watching the sheep there."

"It's really quite a lot." Wan Dayun and Xi Yanqing also got closer, and saw that the lambs were all very happy, "But this sheep is not our sheep, right? See you in the past They are all different. Especially their horns."

"I brought it from my hometown." Jing Rong said, "It's really not the same breed as this one."

"I asked why the mutton brought by Brother Xi was so tender that day." Wan Dayun said, "Then I'll bring back the two ends first, Brother Jing Rong, can you see it?"
