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

Su Ziling: "If you have a yard, you must also have a well. It is best to have a backyard for people to rest, otherwise it will be inconvenient."

Lu Yan nodded, "If you rent something like this, it will cost about fifteen taels a month. If you buy it, it will cost between two hundred and seventy-eight to three hundred taels."

As soon as the price came out, everyone took a breath, and Father Su's lips trembled, "Tell me, how much?"

Lu Yan: "A conservative estimate is between two hundred and seventy-eight and three hundred taels."

"This..." Mother Su looked at Su Ziling and then at Su A'nai, "Mom, how about renting one? Let's rent it for half a year first. If it doesn't work, there is a way out."

Su A'nai looked at Su Ziling, "What did you say?"

Su Ziling calculated an account for them, "Even if we rent, it will cost ninety taels of silver for half a year. If we buy again, won't we spend an extra ninety taels of silver? And if we are sure to keep selling, renting for one year will cost us one One hundred and eighty taels of silver is equivalent to three hundred and sixty taels in two years, so it’s better to just buy it.”

"Three hundred and sixty taels?" Mother Su trembled and slapped the table, "Then buy it!"

Su A'nai nodded, "Buying is indeed much more cost-effective than renting. Even if you don't do business anymore, you can rent it out, and you will be able to collect rent by then. It will take about a year and a half to recover your capital!"

Hearing Su A'nai's words, the eyes of the others lit up, "Yes, yes, yes, it is more cost-effective to buy. If we rent, the house is not ours after all the money is spent. Thank you!"

Seeing that everyone agreed, Mr. Su finally made the decision, "Okay! Then buy it! Old lady, do you have enough money at home?"

Su A'nai shook her head, "I'll take a look at it tonight."

"Okay, let's all go back to the house. We have things to do tomorrow. Since we have decided to buy it, let's set a time in two days to go to the county to have a look. We will also go to the escort agency and book the escort." Mr. Su got up and prepared to go back to the house to sleep.

"I happen to know one from the escort agency. If you guys are at ease, grandma, I can also help you take a look at it." Lu Yan stood up immediately.

"That's great. Xiao Lu, you happen to be good at martial arts. Then you can help me see who is better at martial arts." They really didn't know anything about this old man Su, so they were naturally overjoyed to hear that Lu Yan knew someone.

Everyone went back to their own houses, only Mr. Su's house was brightly lit.

Grandma Su opened the cabinet, took out the small box, and put it on the bed with a bang.

She took off her shoes and sat on the bed, "There should be some left, it's quite heavy."

When the box was opened, she put the silver ingot aside first, then took out the copper coins and counted them.

She counts the money she gets back every day, and strings a thousand coins into strings. Each string is exactly one tael of silver. It is much easier to count now.

Mr. Su sat across from her and watched her count quietly without making a sound.

After she finished counting, she asked, "How many are there?"

Su A'nai straightened up and moved her neck, "There are two hundred and forty taels."

Mr. Su breathed a sigh of relief, "That's enough, that's enough."

"I haven't counted the silver ingots yet." There are fewer silver ingots, so they are easier to count.

"There are two hundred and twenty taels here, a total of four hundred and sixty taels," Su A'nai put the silver back after counting.

"It cost twenty taels to buy the cow, almost ten taels to go to school for the two cows, and another sixty taels to build the workshop. That's about it for the big head. Plus buying cloth and other bits and pieces, one A hundred taels are spent."

After doing the calculation, Su A'nai sighed, "I've been making money for almost half a year. I made more than five hundred taels. In the blink of an eye, three or four hundred taels were gone. It's so wasteful!"

"Okay, okay, stop talking about it, just buy a shop. If she gets married in the future, I will give her a dowry. If she doesn't get married,"

Aunt Su smiled softly, "So what if I don't get married?"

Mr. Su lifted the quilt and patted the place next to him, "If you don't want to marry, don't marry. I don't have any problem with her recruiting a grandson-in-law. This girl doesn't know who she is following. She has bigger ideas than anyone else. , come in quickly, it’s starting to get cold at night.”

Speaking of the latter, he urged Su A'nai to get into bed quickly.

The next day, the genius Su Ziling got up early. She thought about going to Tianmen Mountain to pick lacquer seeds today, so she got up extra early.

After I got up, I kneaded the ice powder first. There were few people in the mountain col, so I couldn't sell much, so I only needed two kilograms of kneaded ice powder. With more than a hundred bowls, I could sell it for almost a day.

Halfway through rubbing the ice powder, Su's mother got up. Looking at the two pots of ice powder she had accumulated, Su's mother was stunned. She was still dazed just now, but now she suddenly woke up.

She rubbed her eyes, "Qing'er, you got up so early, why didn't you call me?"

Su Ziling smiled at her and said, "It's okay. I wanted to go to the mountains today, so I got up a little early. I wanted to put the ice powder into the well early. Brother and the others can just pick it up and sell it later."

"Is it okay if you don't go?" Mother Su asked as she fetched a basin of water and washed herself.

"It's no problem. I've already told Aunt Ji. She will still make sweet potato noodles then. Yunhe sells steamed buns, flower rolls and ice noodles, and the elder brother is helping. If I don't go, the buns won't be made, so they Three people can keep busy."

"That's fine," Mother Su said after washing herself, "Should I rub it with you or go cook?"

Su Ziling: "I've done it by myself. Mom, please don't touch me. You go and light the fire, boil the rice, and make dry rice. I haven't eaten corn paste for several days. Let's make another bowl of corn." Mud."

"Okay, do you still need to cook the melon from yesterday? It feels quite delicious, light and sweet, and your grandma likes it better." Mother Su's voice came from the kitchen. (chayote picture)

"We won't cook it today. This melon is easier to store. We can eat it after a few days. There are still two pigeons hanging in the well. Let's take it out and make soup. Use a big gong pot, not the small one."

After lighting the fire and adding water to the pot, Mother Su washed the rice and then came out to get the pigeons.

"Is the big gong pot too big? The small gong pot is just right."

There are two gong pots at home. The larger one can cook rice for twelve or three people, while the smaller one can only feed four people. It is just right for cooking a pigeon, but two can't be accommodated.

"Use a big gong pot. We stew two of them together. If we stew one more, it won't be enough. Didn't Sanlang dig up a piece of Amomum villosum root, wash it and make soup together."

There was only one rabbit and two pigeons left in the well, and the other Su Ziling was marinated. First, rub the surface of the meat with wine, and then rub it with salt and pepper.

Press it with stones and marinate it overnight, the moisture will be pressed out, and then you can hang it up and slowly smoke it with fragrant wood leaves. The smoked chicken and rabbit produced in this way are the most delicious.

The longer it is smoked, the better. As time goes by, the meat will have a faint aroma of fragrant wood. (Qingxiang Mutu, click to open the paragraph for comment)
