Chapter 111: Raise pigs

Aunt Liu had always been so polite, but this made Zhao Yun'er feel a little embarrassed.

I finally got something better and sent it over, but Aunt Liu wanted to return it.

Zhao Yun'er knew Aunt Liu's temperament, and even if she said she didn't want it, Aunt Liu would definitely give it to her.

Fortunately, these cloth shoes took effort and were not worth much, otherwise she would be too embarrassed to accept them.

"Thank you, aunt."

Aunt Liu smiled and waved her hand and said, "You're welcome. Anyway, I spend a lot of time at home every day. Doudou is a child. He grows up quickly and his shoes will soon no longer fit."

"Aunt Liu, then you can teach me later and I will learn from you," Zhao Yun'er said.

My sewing skills were still mediocre, so I mended my clothes. She really doesn't know how to make shoes or anything like that.

"Okay, but girl Yun'er, didn't your mother teach you these before?"

Zhao Yun'er shook her head, "No, I taught you this when I was a kid and I forgot about it."

"It's okay. From now on, just follow Auntie and learn from Auntie. Auntie will teach you."

"good."

Aunt Liu put down the needle and thread in her hand, put Zhao Yun'er's fish into a wooden basin, put some water in it and kept it in preparation for eating at night.

The men in the family have gone to work, and Aunt Liu also has two sons, and the family has not been separated yet.

Now one daughter-in-law went back to her parents' house, and the other went out to hunt pigweed.

Countryside people will raise some livestock, in addition to some chickens and ducks, they will also raise pigs.

If you sell a pig during the Chinese New Year, you can not only exchange for some money, but also keep some for your family, so you don't have to sell meat anymore.

Zhao Yun'er saw that the pig pen at Aunt Liu's house was outside and built a separate one.

In ancient times, pigs were raised not with pig feed, but with pig grass or bran.

This way of raising pigs can save a lot of food, and the pigs taste good, much more fragrant than the pork of the 21st century.

"Mom, I'm back!" A woman in her early thirties walked in not far away. She was Aunt Liu's eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhou.

Mrs. Zhou was wearing simple clothes and her hair was combed neatly. My skin is probably a little dark due to working for a long time. At thirty years old, he looks a bit old, but at first glance he looks like a man who does his job.

Mrs. Zhou was carrying a backpack with pigweed in it, and she had just gone to kill pigweed.

Seeing Zhao Yun'er coming, Zhou also greeted Zhao Yun'er with a smile, "Yun'er, you're here!"

"Hello, sister-in-law."

Mrs. Zhou smiled and put down the basket in her hand, "Mom, I went to feed the pigs. There are a lot of pigweeds in this spring. Our piglets can grow fat."

"Haha, that's good, go ahead."

"Um."

There were three little pigs in the pigsty. The big pig was killed and sold at the end of last year. These heads were all caught not long ago.

Mrs. Zhou skillfully put the pigweed into the pig pen and muttered a few words. Several piglets ran over and started grabbing the pigweed.

Zhao Yun'er saw a few piglets, which were pink and tender and looked quite cute.

Listening to Mrs. Zhou's words, Zhao Yun'er also began to wonder whether she should also raise two piglets. Let's not talk about changing money. After killing him, he can give Doudou a lot of pork.

Pigs eat pig grass and bran, and it doesn't cost much to raise a pig.

"Aunt Liu, how much does it cost to buy a little pig like yours?"
