Li Chunsheng is already twenty-one years old this year. At this age, he has not married yet, so he can be said to be an older unmarried man.

A few years ago, the Li family married off their eldest son, which made the already poor family even more financially strained, so Li Chunsheng's marriage was postponed.

In the past two years, Li Chunsheng was very capable, and the Li family's life gradually became better. Old Mrs. Li began to arrange for her second son to marry, but Li Chunsheng refused to marry no matter what, which worried Old Mrs. Li.

After much difficulty, Li Chunsheng agreed to get married a few years ago. He had also met the girl and was just about to make the decision.

But Li Chunsheng was fine, he said he would not marry her no matter what. Old Mrs. Li beat him and scolded him, but it was no use. When she asked him the reason, he would not tell her.

Li Chunsheng stood there, letting his elder sister talk without saying a word. But looking at his expression, he was clearly showing an attitude of being a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water. You can say whatever you want, I will pretend that I can't hear you, whatever you want.

Li Hongmei was so angry when she saw him like that that she pinched his arm hard and said, "Why don't you take my words seriously? Second brother, you are really not young anymore. Our mother is also old, but you have to make her worry about you even though she is so old."

"Sister, please persuade mother to relax."

When Li Hongmei heard what he said, she angrily hit him again: "Why are you so relaxed?"

After the beating, Li Hongmei still complained in her heart: Why are you so strong! My hands hurt from the beating.

For Li Chunsheng, the two slaps from her elder sister were just tickling.

Li Hongmei softened her voice helplessly and said, "Second brother, tell me the truth, why did you quit? Are you attracted to a girl? If you are attracted to a girl, I will go and mediate for you, but you have to tell me!"

Li Hongmei was worried that her brother was being seduced by some improper woman. If it was a girl from a respectable family, she would just speak out.

Li Chunsheng whispered in his heart: I like the girl in your family. He only dared to say this in his heart.

Li Chunsheng didn't know when he started to like Su Yitong. Maybe it was when Su Yitong secretly fed him food; maybe it was when he just learned to hunt and Su Yitong told him to be careful. In short, when he realized it, he was already deeply involved.

He originally thought that since she was going to get married, he could just marry someone casually! But she broke off the engagement! As long as she didn't get married, he wouldn't marry her.

Li Chunsheng knew in his heart that he was not worthy of her and there was no possibility for him and Su Yitong, but he just didn't want to get married.

Li Chunsheng changed the subject: "Big sister, I also want to come to your house to learn to read. I wonder if Aunt Su will agree. I won't learn in vain. I will pay the tuition. I also want my nephew to learn in the future."

When Li Hongmei heard this, she wanted her younger brother to learn. Her older brother got married late because of poor family conditions, and her nephew was just four years old. He was still a little young to learn to read, and she was afraid that he would not be able to sit still and cause trouble to the family.

For some reason, Li Hongmei felt that her mother-in-law would agree, so she replied, "I'll talk to my mother-in-law later, it should be no problem."

Li Chunsheng was very happy when he heard this. In fact, he wanted to ask this question just now in the yard, but he was afraid of being too direct, so he didn't say anything.

Li Hongmei said earnestly, "Second brother! You are not young anymore. It is normal to like any girl, but you must not like an indecent girl."

"What are you talking about, sister? I'm going home." After saying that, Li Chunsheng turned around and left without giving Li Hongmei a chance to speak.

Li Hongmei looked at her brother's back and stomped her feet in anger.

Li Hongmei found Mrs. Su and told her that Li Chunsheng wanted to come to the study class. The name of the study class was given by Su Yuanyuan, and after unanimous agreement, the name was decided.

Old Madam Su readily agreed: "Let Chunsheng come to study, and let your nephew come as well. It's important to start learning early, so you can see if you have the talent for studying."

Li Hongmei was very happy when she heard it: "Thank you so much, mother."

"As for Shu Xiu, forget it. Let Chunsheng help catch a few more live rabbits. It doesn't matter what size they are. It's best if they have nice fur. These rabbits will be worth Shu Xiu."

Su Yuanyuan has already told Old Mrs. Su about her idea of ​​raising rabbits, and Old Mrs. Su thinks this is a way to make money.

Furthermore, Old Mrs. Su had a strong premonition that this winter would be very cold.

Li Hongmei: "It's no problem to catch the rabbit. I'll talk to him later. But he still has to pay the tuition."

Several children from the Zhou family came to study. Although Su An Dong said that he didn't want any tuition, the Zhou family still brought gifts and helped with daily chores. The firewood at home was all covered by the Zhou family.

"We are all relatives. Why would I accept you if I don't accept others? If you feel bad, just come and help me with any work at home."

Li Hongmei stopped being polite when she heard this: "Thank you, mother."

Li Hongmei thought that she couldn't just have rabbits, she would ask her brother to buy some gifts later. She would also ask her brother to help her with some work in the future to pay for the tuition.

The Su family now has three meals a day, and the food is not a bit better than before.

During dinner, the old lady told everyone about raising rabbits. Old lady Su changed the Su family's habit of eating two meals a day, and now the Su family eats three meals a day.

Su Ankang questioned: "Mom, I've never seen anyone raise a rabbit before, can this rabbit be raised?"

“How do you know if it will succeed if you don’t raise it yet? You’ll know only after you’ve tried it. If it doesn’t work, it’s no big deal. It’s just a waste of a few rabbits and some effort. If it does, the rabbit meat and rabbit fur are all money.” Old Mrs. Su was very confident that her granddaughter could raise rabbits.

When everyone heard this, they all agreed to the idea, and the rabbit breeding plan was thus decided.

Su Yuanyuan said, "Grandma, let's open a vegetable garden! Plant more food that rabbits like to eat. We can't just rely on cutting grass in the mountains. We need to have something to feed them."

"It's probably too far from home to open a vegetable plot. Let's buy a plot from the villagers!" The houses in Nanxi Village are not crowded, and the vegetable plots in front of and behind the houses are cultivated by the villagers. The land close to the village is also owned by someone, so if you want to be closer to home, you have to buy it.

The Su family was a latecomer and originally lived close to the village. It was most convenient to buy a vegetable plot near the village.

Su Yuanyuan thought for a moment and said, "If I can't buy it, I can rent one. If the price is right, someone should be able to rent it."

"Renting is also a solution, eldest and second brother, you can ask around in the village later, either renting or buying is fine. Don't worry, if the rabbits are not raised, we have a mule cart at home, and we can take the vegetables from the field to the county to sell." The Su family had bought the cows and mules a few days ago.

Su Anping and Su Ankang agreed.

Money makes things easier. Because the harvest was poor last year, every family was living in poverty. So the Su Anping brothers successfully bought a vegetable plot from a villager, which was very close to the Su family.

At this point, Su Yuanyuan's rabbit-raising career had begun.

Su Yuanyuan found her eldest uncle and second uncle and asked them to follow their own ideas.

Su Yuanyuan's two uncles listened to their niece's words and did whatever she told them to do.

This shows a common feature of the men in the Su family: they all spoil their children.

The task of raising rabbits fell on Su Yuanyuan, Su Guoguo and Su Miaomiao.

There are still few rabbits now, and a few girls can raise them.
