As soon as Song Zhao finished speaking, the guard at the door reported, "Mr. Zhou has arrived."
Zhou Dajiang quickly stepped forward and bowed, "Brother!"
Song Zhao was used to being in the military camp and hated these clichés the most. He directly pulled him up and said, "Why are you being so polite to your own big brother? Come on, Dajiang, sit over here."
After that, he ordered the guards in front of the tent to pour tea for Zhou Dajiang, and then said: "We haven't seen each other for a long time, we have to have a good chat today."
Zhou Dajiang nodded, and the two of them chatted about their recent situation.
Zhou Dajiang talked about the village affairs, such as the opening of a primary school, his purchase of a piece of land, the expansion of the factory, the research and development of new tools, and so on. Thinking carefully, there was quite a lot in the past six months. After finishing his speech, he asked Song Zhao, "Brother, how are you? Didn't you submit a petition for sick leave?" Why haven't you left yet?
"How can we just leave at a moment's notice? It takes time to submit the memorial, it takes time to get it approved, and then we have to figure out where to transfer the general from, and the place of transfer also has to be arranged. So, there are delays.
It will be soon. The general who was transferred is already on his way from the southwest. I will be able to go back in ten days or half a month."
"That's fine, big brother, when you go back, come home again. Your sister misses you and An Ge'er, so let her take a look and bring some food back to An Ge'er."
Seeing Song Zhao nodded in agreement, he continued:
"Brother, I came here this time because I want to ask you for help with something."
Song Zhao: "We are all family. Whether you want to help or not, just tell me directly. If I can help you, I will definitely help you. If I can't help you, I will also find a way to solve it for you."
Zhou Dajiang then said, "Your sister has researched a new food that requires milk. The cow we raised at home has given birth and has milk, but we still need to feed the calves, so the milk is not enough. So we're thinking of buying another cow."
Song Zhao said, "You're so serious. I thought it was a big deal. It's just buying cows, easy! I'll get someone to take care of it right away." He called Fang Yi over and said, "Go to the ranch and ask how much the cows are for sale. Bring back two."
Zhou Dajiang interjected, "One will do."
"Don't listen to him. Buy two. You come all the way here just to buy one cow. It's not a big deal. These two are mine." After saying that, he threw a purse to Fang Yi.
Before Zhou Dajiang could say anything against it, Fang Yi turned around and left.
Zhou Dajiang...Okay, both ends are fine.
As a result, half an hour later, the man returned and said, "The farmer has taken the cattle out for breeding, and his wife has returned to her parents' home and will not be back for two days. The old servant is left at home and does not dare to make the decision."
What a coincidence!
After listening to the report, Song Zhao thought for a moment and said to Zhou Dajiang, "If you have nothing to do, wait here for two days. If you have something to do, go back and get busy. I'll have my personal guards deliver it to you after I finish buying it."
Zhou Dajiang, that's great. There are a lot of things waiting for him at home. He really can't afford to delay. I have to ask my eldest brother to send someone to deliver it over when the time comes.
So, the next morning, he and Xu Wu set off for home. Arriving at the camp gate, Zhou Dajiang remembered his wife's advice: "We're going to buy the cow ourselves, so we can let our eldest brother pay for it." So he played a trick and lied that he had forgotten to give Fang Yi the money for the cow, and asked the soldier at the gate to bring it to him.
The return journey was still carried out by horse and ox cart, and the two of them returned after two and a half days.
Chen Xiuying had thought he would be able to bring the cows back when he returned, but she hadn't expected this incident. She had no choice but to wait. As for the additional orders from Lai Fu Restaurant and Tea House, sorry, they'll have to wait. There's no milk.
Fortunately, within two days, Lou Ji came with three cows.
Everyone stared at the cow in amazement. Zhou's mother asked her son, "Didn't I ask you to buy a cow?"
Zhou Dajiang: "Yes! I paid for a cow."
"Then why did it become three heads?"
"I don't know either!"
It was Lou Ji who cleared up the confusion for everyone, "It is true that Mr. Zhou bought one cow, but the other two were gifts from our general.
Our general said, "We only have one cow. What if it runs out of milk? What if my sister's product sells well and there's not enough milk?"
So, we bought two more cows. One of them is producing milk, and the other isn't, but it's carrying a calf. This was my idea with Fang Yi, and we made him buy them this way."
In other words, including the belly, his family suddenly has four more fixed assets!
This time, not only Zhou Dajiang was dumbfounded, but Zhou Dahai was also dumbfounded. His family's cowshed was full of space! It was good enough to be able to accommodate Xiaohua and her son.
The calf called "Xiao Xiaohua" is actually a male!
With so many big guys arriving at once, they had to be properly arranged. Zhou Dajiang thought about it and decided to arrange them all to Xiaomao Mountain. Coincidentally, the north side of the mountain was a grazing area, so it was also suitable to arrange the cattle there.
After arranging the cows, Zhou Dajiang put all his attention on peaches.
The peaches are ripe and time to pick them.
He picked some and took them home to let his family taste them.
Mother Zhou took a bite and said, "Hmm! The peaches are pretty good, crisp and sweet. They should sell for two or three cents each."
Mother Chen also picked one out. "Well, the most expensive one in town is only eight or nine coins per pound. The average price is about the same."
Zhou Dajiang, who originally wanted to go to the town to check the market, immediately changed his goal, rubbed his face and said, "Forget it, I'd better go to the provincial capital to check it out." The price is too low.
Chen Xiuying ate the peaches while thinking about it, and then said, "These peaches are really sweet, but it's not appropriate to go all the way to the capital for these peaches. Not only will it cost money to ship them back, but it will also waste time. These are best picked and sold right away. Give me some time, I'll think of a solution."
After Chen Xiuying said this, Zhou Dajiang, who knew his wife well, immediately calmed down. She was sure to turn the peaches into something delicious.
As expected, after Chen Xiuying studied all night, everyone enjoyed a peach meal the next night.
In front of each person, there was a bowl of unknown drink, an unknown cake, a piece of yellow crystal food cut into small squares, and a piece of pink cake.
Everyone looked at each other, "Is this all we have for dinner?"
Zhou Sisi first picked up the cake and took a bite. It tasted like peach. "Mom, don't tell me this is peach pie." Oops, she accidentally brought out some modern vocabulary.
Mother Zhou also took a bite and said, "This is not a peach pancake, it's just a pancake. At most, it can be called a peach meat pancake."
Mother Chen: "Where's the meat? I think it should be called peach blossom cake."
Master Chen exposed her true colors, "Where did the flowers come from?"
Mother Zhou...you look like a flower to me!
Seeing that the two elders were about to fight, Chen Xiuying said, "I'll name it 'Peach Cake'."
Everyone, um! It's quite crispy.
Dali loves cake, so she picked up the pink cake and took a bite. "There's even sauce in it!"
Zhou Dajiang also took a bite and asked, "Is this a layer cake?"
Chen Xiuying nodded. "It's a peach-flavored cream cake. The pink color is made from boiled peach peels, and the pulp in the cream is also boiled peach flesh."
"What about this?" It was Xu Wu who spoke, pointing at the pile of small yellow cubes.
"Try this. It's peach-flavored jelly cake, perfect for summer."
Everyone tasted a small piece. Hmm! It was delicious, springy and sticky, and cool. It was very similar to the sea jelly we had last year. The only difference was that it was salty, and this one was sweet.
Xiao Xiangsheng raised his little hand and said in a soft voice, "I love this!"
Finally, Zhou Sisi took a sip of the drink in front of her, and then her mouth became clogged with excitement. "This! This! This!"
Everyone looked at her. "What's this? Why are you still talking like Qing'er?"
