The casual life of the flat space

Chapter 337 No matter how small a mosquito is, it’s still meat

"That's great! It's like this, in addition to clothes, shoes and socks, I also need..." This clothing store has a plaque in the space, and Bai Tieying naturally trusts the other shopkeepers he called, and they are naturally happy to save time and trouble.

Soon, all the shopkeepers were called over. Bai Tieying told them what she wanted to buy, paid for it, and asked them to deliver it to the Military Command Headquarters, then left with Mu Qingqiu.

After delivering the food to the guests, Bai Tieying suddenly remembered the people at the chicken farm, so he drove there with Mu Qingqiu.

After the initial panic passed, the number of pedestrians in the city gradually increased. After all, many people could only earn money and have food to eat by working. When there was no extra food at home, they had to go out to make a living, let alone locusts, even if they had to fight against knives.

"Miss Bai is here? Miss Bai is here! Grandpa, Miss Bai is here!" Seeing Bai Tieying driving the carriage to the door, Gu Dazhuang shouted and ran inside to call for help.

"Oh, it's Tieying! How come you're here today?" Old Zeng came out of the shed with his hands clasped and two chicken feathers on his head. It was obvious that he was working.

"Grandpa Zeng, I came to see you and bring you two carts of vegetables and food. Don't go out again today."

"Oh, good! Good! Come in quickly! Dazhuang! Ask someone to move the vegetables. Uh, who is this..." Old Zeng looked at Mu Qingqiu and asked.

"Grandpa Zeng, this is my friend Qiu Ge'er. You don't have to worry about him. Just let him stay in the car. Are you feeling well these days? You should eat at least one egg a day! Don't be reluctant! Even if you want to eat it as a meal, we have the conditions for it, right?"

"Hey! Brother Qiu, right? Please sit in the car. It's dirty outside. I'm sorry for treating you badly!" Bai Tieying said that it was okay, but Old Zeng greeted Mu Qingqiu first, then turned to Bai Tieying and said:

"Don't worry, I've eaten. Daqiang and the others are watching me! I can't forget it even if I want to! Children and the elderly have one every day, and adults have one every five days. Oh, this life is as good as that of the old man!"

"Hahaha, that's fine, I'm just afraid you won't be willing to part with it!"

Bai Tieying greeted everyone who came out, and then helped Old Zeng into his room. She didn't say anything, she just felt the thickness of the quilt on the bed, and asked Old Zeng if he had bought winter clothes, she was afraid that if he didn't make them now, he might not be able to get the cloth.

"I did it. I did it all. Look, it's in the bag. It's cold, so I'm not wearing anything."

"You still have to wear something in the morning and evening. Medicine is more expensive than clothes, and it's painful anyway!"

After chatting with Old Zeng for a while, Bai Tieying asked him how many people had bought chickens recently.

"It's still the same as before. Most of them are bought in small quantities! Hey! Every time I sell one, I lose money. Tieying, those who have farms and fields use their own. Here in the city, most of the people who buy are from people who don't have fields. Those who buy from the countryside are just trying to get a bargain. Even if I tell them about the insect repellent effect, no one listens!"

"We should do our best and leave the rest to fate. Grandpa Zeng, don't be sad. We can't just speculate that there might be an insect plague. If someone listens to us, our efforts won't be in vain. Besides, the county government will soon be purchasing in large quantities, so you can relax. I won't lose money!"

"Okay, you have your own ideas, grandpa will listen to you. By the way, why does the chicken eat instead of insects? I was so happy this morning!"

This was something Bai Tieying had not expected. She only knew that chickens and ducks were used in large numbers to kill locusts in the original world, and she did not understand why they could not be eaten. However, it was the nature of birds to eat insects, so she narrowed her eyes and found an excuse:

"It's just for a while. What my uncle meant is that if there are too many, they will become poisonous. It will be fine when the number decreases. However, if anyone in our courtyard is free, you can go catch some insects. The county government will collect them starting tomorrow. There will definitely be few people who believe in it at the beginning. You can catch them in advance and sell them. First, you can buy a horse worth a thousand gold coins, and second, you can earn some pocket money."

"Hey, girl, why did you say that just now? Let's go now!"

"Grandpa Zeng! I'm just afraid that you have too many things to worry about, so I didn't tell you just now. Please sit down quickly. I told you that this is to let everyone earn some pocket money. It's good that the county government can give out this money. It won't be too much. Please don't worry."

What Bai Tieying didn't say was that she actually paid for it. She had an agreement with the county government that the waste would be used for composting, but she estimated that even if others didn't believe it, they would still pay a little.

With this good news, the people in the county government will be more pleasing to her. If there are more or less, can't they make some money from it? Besides, the people are all actively killing insects, which is their political achievement in the end.

"You kid, even a mosquito is still meat. Okay, just ignore it. Daqiang, Daqiang!"

"Grandpa, you called me?" Gu Daqiang came in and quickly closed the door.

"Grandpa has something good to tell you. Tell it to everyone quietly later..."

Bai Tieying felt relieved when he saw the attitude between Lao Zengtou and Gu Daqiang. No matter what kind of person Lao Zengtou was, he was not cunning at all towards him and treated these orphans sincerely.

After Gu Daqiang ran out happily, she talked to Old Zeng for a while and then left.

It was dark all the time, and now it was almost evening, and the road was a little hard to see. But Bai Tieying's driving was different from other drivers, and it didn't matter whether she was there or not, as long as Lou Jingou and her had good eyesight.

When they arrived at Xiahe Village, Bai Tieying asked the "intelligence station" at the entrance of the village and found Hua Saozi's parents' home.

Mrs. Hua's maiden name was Guo. When Aunt Guo heard that her daughter was sick, she was so angry that she packed up her things and went to Xianhe Village with Bai Tieying.

On the way, Bai Tieying explained the disease to Aunt Guo in detail, hoping that her mother could understand her child more. This is not insanity, but just caused by too much temporary loss and fatigue. Every woman will have it more or less, but too much external stimulation may also lead to the root of the disease.

"Hey, Tieying! Why is my daughter so stubborn? I told her at the beginning that her family was too large and she couldn't get married. Look, I was right, wasn't I?

I don't mean to disrespect the elders, but since you have so many people, why don't you build two more houses? As for the Dong family, I don't know what they are doing with so much money! Just screw them!

I told them before that Lian'er was about to give birth, and asked them to tell me as soon as possible. But they did it. From the time the baby was born in the middle of the night to the time I found out, it was almost dark. When I arrived at Xianhe Village, I had to take a look and then turn back. Lian'er suffered so much, and she couldn't even see her parents. How could she feel at peace? Isn't it that...disease you mentioned?"

"Postpartum depression."
