Female Farming Pond Fish

Seeing the sun was setting, Chi Xiaotong knew that there was still some time before the students got out of school, so she went to the market.

"Preserved fruits, sweet preserved fruits!" After shouting a few times, a man with a child came over and asked the price.

"Eight cents and one ounce," Chi Xiaotong said with a smile.

The man readily asked for two taels of rice to satisfy the child's craving.

Many people came to buy. After hearing Chi Xiaotong's price, most of them bought one or two taels. Soon, the whole jar was sold out. Gradually, fewer people came.

Chi Xiaotong's price is not expensive, but not all families are willing to buy it. After all, it is just a snack, and many families cannot afford it.

After a whole morning, only half of the two jars of preserved fruit Chi Xiaotong brought were left. Seeing that it was almost noon and no one came to buy for a long time, Chi Xiaotong simply packed up and went home.

There weren't many left, and it wasn't worth selling them again, so I just kept them for myself! On the way back, Chi Xiaotong bought two meat buns and two vegetarian buns to take home for lunch.

As soon as she got home, Chi Xiaotong went straight to the bedroom. Seeing Tian Yu sitting on the bed, she smiled with satisfaction and handed him the still warm bun in her arms.

"Eat it while it's hot!" He put the preserved fruit into a small jar and placed it on the small cabinet beside the bed, within easy reach.

"The preserved fruits are put here, take them when you want to eat them!" After washing her hands, Chi Xiaotong said while sitting on the edge of the bed.

"I won't eat it. Didn't my wife say she wanted to sell it for money?"

"Yes, this is what's left over from today's sale. It's not easy to sell! Keep it for us to eat!"

Tian Yu handed Chi Xiaotong two buns and nodded to show that he understood.

He took the buns, handed one to Tian Yu, and took another from him. "I bought two meat ones and two vegetarian ones, the same one!"

"I just want to eat vegetarian food!" Tian Yu wanted to refuse.

"Be good and eat quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold!" He said, taking a big bite of the vegetarian bun. Tian Yu had no choice but to lower his head and eat the bun.

Chi Xiaotong finally realized that there were some things that didn't need to be said many times. Just tell him and then leave him alone. He was afraid that he would make her angry if he acted on his own initiative, so he wouldn't do it.

This state is not right, but I don't know how to deal with it, so let's just leave it like this! After being together for a long time, you can always become more cheerful and bold.

After Chi Xiaotong finished eating, she noticed that Tian Yu had only eaten the one with vegetarian filling.

"Why don't you eat?"

"My dear wife, eat it!" He handed the bun to Chi Xiaotong.

Chi Xiaotong said: "I'm full."

Tian Yu rewrapped the buns and said, "I'm full too! I'll leave some for my wife to eat in the evening."

Chi Xiaotong sighed, this child! She touched his head and said softly, "I won't eat. How can one bun fill me up? Eat it quickly! It won't taste good if it gets cold! We'll have dinner tonight."

Seeing that Tian Yu still refused to eat, she had no choice but to tell him, "This is for you. If you don't want to eat it now, eat it later. Eat it whenever you want!"

In the afternoon, Chi Xiaotong went up the mountain.

There were only a few wild fruits left on the mountain. In the whole afternoon, she didn't even pick half of the basket. On the way home, Chi Xiaotong was worried, what could she do with these fruits? How much could she make?

It's not much, but I have to do it! Otherwise, what should I do with the fruits? The next morning, after breakfast, Chi Xiaotong prepared the preserved fruits and dried them in the sun.

After I took care of the house, I went up the mountain. Today I got even less. I came back early, so I made preserved fruits.

They were all dried, and including the leftovers from last time, there were a total of two kilograms. Chi Xiaotong had asked Tian Yu to eat some before, but he refused. Only every time he took the medicine, Chi Xiaotong would give him two pieces.

Chi Xiaotong took it to the town to sell. It was OK, all sold out. Four days, plus the previous one, a total of six pounds of preserved fruit. A total of 480 coins.

It's too little. I have to go get medicine the day after tomorrow. These are not enough! There are no wild fruits on the mountain! There is no source of income. What should I do?

I was sitting in the yard, feeling worried, when I saw two rabbits. I have been raising them for so long, they have grown big. I will sell them tomorrow! They should be able to fetch a hundred or so coins.

That’s not enough! Not enough! I’ll go to the back mountain and try my luck after I get the medicine the day after tomorrow.

Fortunes are sought in danger. If I am lucky enough, I can get something good. This winter will be easier. Otherwise, if it snows in a few days, I will not be able to make money!

Chi Xiaotong would pull grass to feed the rabbits every day, and the two rabbits grew very fat. One rabbit was sold for 130 wen. Two rabbits were sold for 260 wen. It was quite valuable, and Chi Xiaotong was very happy.

The second time he went, Doctor Li took Tian Yu's pulse and went in to prepare medicine. It was Li Dingxiang who brought out the medicine again.

This time, the medicine was still for five days. Doctor Li charged five cents, plus the two cents less from last time, a total of seven cents. The money earned these days was barely enough.

I only have a few dozen coins left. There is nothing I can sell at home. There is really no way to make money.

When he got home, he saw Chi Xiaotong fiddling with the dozens of copper coins in a worried state. Tian Yu tugged at her sleeve and whispered, "Wife, don't go get the medicine after you finish it! Okay! I feel like I'm almost well! Another five days of rest, and I'll be completely well!"

"You have no say in this matter. You have to listen to the doctor. You don't have to worry about the money. I'll go up the mountain to take a look tomorrow."

"But isn't there nothing left on the mountain?" Tian Yu had been paying attention to Chi Xiaotong when she came back from the mountain these two days. Combined with previous experience, he knew that there was nothing left on the mountain!

"Don't worry about that. I'll go for a walk. I won't be back for lunch. Doctor Li said you can do a little bit of exercise now. I'll prepare the meal. You can heat it up for lunch."

"No. It's very dangerous to go in!" When Tian Yu heard that Chi Xiaotong was going in, he would not let her go no matter what.

In the end, Chi Xiaotong could only ensure that he would not go too deep, that is, go a little further away. There were fewer people there, to see if he could come across good things.

Tian Yu still didn't want her to go. Chi Xiaotong said that she would pay attention to safety. After all, there was a young husband waiting for her at home.

This matter concerns Chi Xiaotong's safety. Tian Yu is really worried. But he can't beat her.

Finally, after Chi Xiaotong's repeated assurances, Tian Yu agreed to let her go, and asked her to come back before dark. Chi Xiaotong agreed.

Tian Yu still didn't sleep well that night.
