Crossing the farm gate, the whole family reunites in the disaster year

Chapter 267 Slaughterhouse

Cuicui's father hurried down the ladder and wiped his hands happily.

Lin glanced at Sanfu and smiled at Cuicui's father, "I came to see Sanfu. The child was so happy last night that he said he started learning to plaster the wall from you."

Sanfu was like a taciturn person, just smiling with his lips pursed.

Cuicui's father laughed and patted Sanfu.

"This kid is obedient and works hard. He can do the little laborer's work. I might as well teach him more. If he learns a good skill, he will have a job to eat in the future."

Cuicui's father looked at her with admiration. Cuicui was his only daughter, and she had been learning this craft for half her life. He had always wanted to find an apprentice, and he happened to meet Sanfu.

He also doesn't like clever kids, and Sanfu is just what he likes.

Before, I accepted Sanfu as an apprentice and made him a laborer to test his character. But starting from yesterday, I recognized him as an apprentice and officially taught him the skills.

Learning a skill well can allow you to live a full life. Even farming is passed down from generation to generation. Having a master to impart experience can help you avoid many detours. However, real skills are not easily taught to others.

An apprentice is like a half son, so after Lin found out last night, he wanted Sanfu to formally become his apprentice.

Sanfu had no relatives, so he recognized Cuicui's father as his master, which meant he had half a family.

"As long as he enjoys this, it would be a blessing for him to follow you." Lin invited with a smile, "The skills shouldn't be learned in vain. I'll buy two jars of wine in the next two days so that Sanfu can officially become your disciple."

When he heard about becoming a disciple, Sanfu's eyes lit up and he looked at Cuicui's father expectantly.

"Okay." Cuicui's father agreed without hesitation. "Mother Jingwen, you make the decision. If I don't agree, Cuicui will be the first to make a scene. But first, let me make a promise. You have to buy her a jar of good wine. This is my first apprentice."

"No problem, tomorrow night then?"

"it is good."

Sanfu was so happy that he wanted to pick up Lin, but then he thought it was inappropriate, so he turned around and hugged Cuicui's father and spun around.

Cuicui's father's face turned red from being strangled: "Put me down quickly, kid, you are so strong."

Lin left amidst laughter.

Among the six people in the thick neck, Sanfu learned the craft from Cuicui's father, Sifu also learned to drive a cart by himself, and now helps to deliver goods every day, Erfu helps in the workshop, and Lin will slowly teach him management knowledge in the future.

The remaining Wufu and Liufu are relatively young and are currently only learning to read and study with Jingwen.

Several children are gradually getting on the right track, but only Thick Neck has not found what he wants to do.

Lin was a little worried and walked home while thinking. On the way, she happened to meet Thick Neck who had just returned to the village.

Thick Neck was also looking for Lin, so he waved his hand with a mysterious look on his face, "Aunt Lin, I have good news."

Lin walked over: "You say."

"I just went to the slaughterhouse. I have a brother who works there. I asked around and found out that I can get a 20% discount if I buy pig heads from him."

Pig heads are only used when holding banquets. No one buys them to eat on ordinary days, so the price is not surprising. However, Lin glanced at the smug thick neck.

"Is it reliable?"

It's not that she's overthinking it, but it's good enough that Thick Neck and the others didn't provoke retaliation for what they did before. Are they sure it wasn't a trap set by someone on purpose?

Thick Neck's eyes widened: "How can it be unreliable? I have helped their family a lot before."

Seeing Lin's suspicious expression, Thick Neck became anxious and told her what had happened between the two of them.

"...Their slaughterhouse is outside the city, and their kid was kidnapped. If I hadn't found him, I don't know where he would have been by now."

This is a life-saving grace, nothing can be more reliable than this.

The manager of the slaughterhouse always wanted to repay him, and even invited several people with thick necks to the slaughterhouse and arranged for them to do some leisurely work, but he felt that he was not free, so he didn't take it seriously and didn't go there. After a long time, he forgot about it.

It just so happened that Lin was selling pig heads, and he remembered that there was this one.
