Chapter 119 Spicy Dried Fish

Author: Er Meow Go to bed early

Everyone was offended by her shameless look, which was really a response to those thankless words.

When the old lady from the Zhao family saw that she was giving birth to a granddaughter, the child and her wife no longer wanted to take care of her, so she turned around and left with her unsatisfactory son.

Seeing this, her relatives hurriedly stepped forward to grab her and prevent her from leaving.

The one who gave birth to the child was her daughter-in-law, so what’s going on if she’s gone!

But Mrs. Zhao insisted on leaving, and even ten cows could not be brought back, leaving only their relatives looking at each other in embarrassment.

God knows that with such an unlucky relative in the stall, they would all be embarrassed.

According to the gossip speed of the group of wives in the village, it would not take a whole day for everyone at the beginning and end of the village to know about the Zhao family's scandal.

Even relatives like them might get poked in the back.

Xu Shi saw that the Zhao family's daughter-in-law was pitiful, and she felt pity in her heart. The relatives of the Zhao family chatted for a few words, as if they were discussing something, and then turned to the village chief who sent the Zhao family's daughter-in-law to the hospital.

Talk to the villagers:

"Thanks to everyone this time. If you hadn't sent her to the hospital in time, Zhao's wife would probably be dead now."

"Everyone is busy at home now, so let's go back first. We can just keep watch here."

As he spoke, he tugged on the sleeves of a middle-aged woman on the side. Seeing this, the woman also said that she would take good care of the Zhao family's wife and children.

After everyone heard this, they all left with peace of mind.

Before leaving, Xu Nan took Lu's mother and Lu Nanzhou to a baby products store near the hospital and bought some nutritional supplements, children's clothes, milk powder, etc. for Zhao's wife.

When she thought of what the old lady of the Zhao family had done, she felt chilled for the Zhao family's daughter-in-law.

After giving birth to a child, I finally managed to save my life. My biological parents were not around, my husband and mother-in-law left, and there were only two relatives taking care of me. It makes me sad just thinking about it.

The more Xu Nan thought about it, the sadder he became, and he sighed heavily.

Seeing this, Lu Nanzhou stroked her back and knocked her twice to show comfort.

He had been working for many years, and he was in a hospital where life and death were indifferent. It could be said that things like today were rare and strange, and he had become accustomed to it, so he remained calm on his face.

It can be seen that Xu Nan was obviously emotionally affected by his behavior.

Lu Nanzhou didn't know how to comfort her. He could only caress her back with both hands.

On the way back, the county hospital was not far from their village. It took five or six minutes to get there by tricycle, but it took almost fifteen to six minutes.

Because they went to buy things and supplements for the Zhao family's wife, Xu Nan and the others did not go back in the tricycle with the villagers.

Lu's mother said she would take a taxi back because she was afraid that Xu Nan's feet would hurt from walking for a long time.

Xu Nan saw that the scenery on the way back was just right, so he suggested walking back. It wasn't a long journey, and he could still enjoy the scenery of his hometown.

Father Lu and Mother Lu walked in front, and Lu Nanzhou held Xu Nan's hand and walked behind.

Xu Nan's emotions came and went quickly. At this time, she saw Lu Nanzhou holding her hand, and she was a little confused about the situation.

Why is it that it won't end even if you hold it on, and you won't let go.

She moved her hands to try to break free, but was held tighter.

She glanced at Father Lu and Mother Lu standing in front, and she suddenly realized.

I thought that Lu Nanzhou was pretty good at acting. After all, this was in front of his parents, and the relationship between husband and wife couldn't be too plastic.

Simply let him go and hold him as long as you can, since he won't lose a piece of meat anyway.

The journey of more than ten minutes was not too far, and they arrived home in a short time.

The asbestos tiles Lu's father had just bought were still in the car. The three of them were called to Zhao's house as soon as they came back. They didn't come back until now, so the tricycle has been parked in front of the house.

Fortunately, the roads in this village are relatively spacious, so no one has come to ask them to move their car after so long.

Lu Nanzhou and Lu's father first drove the tricycle into the yard, then removed the asbestos tiles piece by piece and moved them into the warehouse.

Mother Lu was originally chatting with Xu Nan while putting away her clothes, but when she looked up, she saw that the day had changed again.

Although the weather was not very good before, it was not cloudy like this. Seeing that it was about to rain, Father Lu and Mother Lu hurriedly put away the dried fish drying in the yard to avoid rain.

Got wet in the rain.

After finishing this work, it was already 3:30 in the afternoon. It was raining heavily outside, and several people in the house were sitting on the kang chatting.

Speaking of the Zhao family's daughter-in-law, Mother Lu became even more angry and itched her teeth:

"It's true that I was born in the midst of blessings and don't know the blessings. I want a daughter but I don't have one yet."

After speaking, he looked at Lu Nanzhou with a look of disgust on his face. When he turned to look at Xu Nan, his expression softened obviously and his eyes smiled:

"My daughter is so considerate. This daughter is like a little cotton-padded jacket for her mother. My three sons can't even murmur a thoughtful word."



Early the next morning, after the rain stopped, Xu Nan came together and saw Lu's mother holding the dried fish she had collected when it rained yesterday and putting it on the tricycle at home.

Seeing this doubt, Xu Nan asked:

"Mom, what are you going to do?"

Father Lu and Mother Lu were both fully armed, obviously ready to go out.

When Mother Lu saw Xu Nan coming out of the house, she told her to go eat quickly, and then explained to her:

"There were too many fish caught at home a while ago, and they were not all sold out, so your dad and I dried them into small fish and thought we could keep them for a while."

"There is a market in the village next door today. Your father and I will go there together to see how many can be sold."

After saying that, Mother Lu looked at the small cart of dried fish and sighed in her heart.

It's the New Year's Eve, and everyone is fishing and selling fish. Don't they all want to have more money during the New Year to buy more New Year's goods?

The market has long been saturated, and the fish cannot be sold no matter how hard it is sold. Now there are so many fish left, but what can we do?

If it can't be sold, isn't it a pure waste?

After Xu Nan heard Mother Lu's words, she instantly became interested. Apart from anything else, she was the best at setting up stalls.

Xu Nan silently asked the system in his mind:

[I help Father Lu and Mother Lu sell dried fish, does the money I earn belong to me?]

System: [That's natural.]

After asking about the system, Xu Nan became more interested. This would not only help Mother Lu and the others sell dried fish, but also increase their own health.

It’s like killing two birds with one stone!

She looked up at Mother Lu, took out a freshly dried small fish from the bag inside the tricycle, picked it up and said to Mother Lu:

"Is it more difficult to do business now that everyone is selling dried fish?"

Xu Nan was talking about something that was deep in Mother Lu's heart. She quickly said:

"Isn't that right? Everyone buys it. The price of this small dried fish has dropped from three yuan per catty to one yuan and fifty-one catty."

Isn't this just making money at a loss? The key is that no matter how cheap it is, no one will buy it.

Xu Nan smiled after hearing this, thinking that it was indeed the case:

"Then let's process it and make it into spicy dried fish and canned fish, so that it can be sold better."
