Back to the 70s: My Wife is Both Fierce and Crazy

Chapter 32 Brother, let's go to town.
"Brother Bai, what do you think? Should we take it to the town or switch it to Wang Fei's side?" Zhong Qiming would naturally be happy to help if he could, but he couldn't let his benefactor suffer a loss.

One thing is true: meat won't keep well in this hot weather.

Uncle Bai looked at Bai Jing, "Jing, what do you say?"

Bai Jing thought for a moment, "Third Uncle, since Uncle Zhong is your friend, let's give the meat to him. We don't have any connections in town." We can't close all our doors, otherwise who will be your friend in the future?

She didn't say it aloud, but she figured her third uncle understood.

She has a golden touch; getting meat is easy for her. At worst, they can just go and get two more wild boars next time.

This time, Zhong Qiming looked at the little girl who called him "uncle" seriously.

Then she took out a small bag of candy from the cabinet behind her. "Look at me, it's my niece. Here, have some candy."

Bai Jing didn't stand on ceremony with him and took out a few candies from the small bag. "Thank you, Uncle Zhong."

Seeing that she only had so little, Zhong Qiming didn't say a word and directly stuffed the whole small bag of candy into her hands. "Take it all, sweeten your mouth. Uncle doesn't have anything good here, so don't be disgusted."

He realized that the decision regarding the meat ultimately rested with his niece.

Bai Jing looked at her third uncle and asked him.

"Take it. It's no big deal to call him 'Uncle' and get some candy."

"That's right, Brother Bai understands me best."

Bai Jing accepted it with a smile.

"Brother Bai, let's weigh ourselves first, then come with me to Xiao Fei's place later."

After a pleasant introduction, we started getting down to business.

"to make."

It weighed about 380 jin in total, but Pighead said that Uncle Bai wouldn't let it be weighed.

Otherwise, it would weigh at least ten kilograms more.

However, Bai Jing didn't care.

She could afford to give away a pig's head.

Zhong Qiming changed his clothes and then took the two of them to the house of another friend of his third uncle.

After walking for about twenty minutes, we arrived at a courtyard near the street.

However, they used the back door.

"Who?"

"I."

After two exchanges, the three entered the courtyard.

The courtyard was pitch black, but once the house was opened, it was brightly lit inside. All the windows were covered with black cloth, and not a single ray of light escaped.

Bai Jing's eyes were opened.

The main room was filled with things, and there were quite a few people weighing themselves there.

Not only that, the rooms connected to the main hall were also bustling with activity.

However, everyone spoke very softly, like they were performing a pantomime, which astonished Bai Jing.

Uncle San pulled Bai Jing into the innermost room.

Zhong Qiming led the way.

There were only two or three people inside, all of them smoking and drinking tea, which showed that the three people in the house were the owners of the courtyard.

"Hey, Brother Bai, what brings you here? Are you having some trouble at home? Tell me, and I'll take care of it for you."

Before Bai Jing could get a good look at the person, a somewhat slovenly-looking man rushed toward her third uncle and immediately greeted him.

"Xiao Fei, I'm not having any problems. It's like this."

So Uncle Bai explained his purpose and put down his basket.

Zhong Qiming chimed in, explaining where the pork came from. "Hey, brother, you're really something. Okay, this meat will be as you said, one yuan and thirty cents a pound. I'll earn some hard-earned money with you."

Despite being the youngest of the three, Wang Fei is far more thorough in handling matters than Uncle Bai and Zhong Qiming.

Look at what this says.

He didn't say he lost money at that price; he only said he was making a little money by following his brother.

Uncle Bai wouldn't care how much they earned, but he knew they were making money.

If they had taken a loss to buy back the goods, their relationship probably wouldn't be as close as it is now.

Just as Wang Fei was about to call someone in to weigh it, Zhong Qiming spoke up, "No need to weigh it. I weighed it at home. It's 387 jin in total. Pighead Brother didn't include it in the weight; he said he'd give it to us to eat."

Upon hearing this, Wang Fei was stunned. "How can you do this? You know how much a pig's head costs. You're taking advantage of my brother." With that, he punched Zhong Qiming.

Uncle Bai knew their character; they weren't the type to take advantage of him. "Alright, that was food I gave you. Stop talking about it and pay the bill. I still need to go shopping."

He had quite a few things on his mind about what was outside.

We agreed at home that we would buy the items first and then figure out how to divide them later.

He and his second brother were initially reluctant, but Xiao Jing was the one who contributed the effort, and they were already quite satisfied with getting a small wild boar as a share.

But both the sister-in-law and Xiaojing disagreed, so in the end Xiaojing had to take half, and the two of them split the remaining half.

"Brother, what do you want to buy? Tell me, and I'll arrange it for you." Without further ado, Wang Fei accepted the pig's head from his benefactor.

Upon hearing his benefactor mention wanting to buy something, he immediately patted his chest and said so.

Uncle Bai pointed to his niece, Bai Jing, and said, "You have to tell my niece what you want to buy. Your sister-in-law has already told Xiao Jing, but she hasn't told me."

Upon hearing this, Wang Fei and Zhong Qiming laughed. "It seems your sister-in-law knows you have a bad memory. Luckily, your eldest niece is with you, otherwise, how would you explain this to your sister-in-law when you get back?"

Uncle Bai wasn't annoyed by their teasing. He patted his head憨厚ly and said, "You all know what kind of person your sister-in-law is. She wants too many things. How could I possibly remember them all?"

Bai Jing also laughed. So this is what happened after her third uncle left the village. Sure enough, that place was a place of hardship for their families.

She should try harder and leave the village with her family as soon as possible.

Although life in the city is tough these days, for these families, nothing is worse than life in the village.

Bai Jing rattled off a long list of things, which made Wang Fei's head spin. He immediately grabbed paper and pen and had Bai Jing write them down.

Fortunately, there weren't many items, just a large quantity.

However, Wang Fei smiled when he saw the quantity of cotton.

"Brother, I have to say you're lucky. You brought back a batch of cotton from the county the day before yesterday. We were planning to store it until winter before releasing it, but since you're here today, we'll give you the full amount."

When Wang Fei said this, not only was Uncle Bai happy, but Bai Jing was also very happy.

This winter, their whole family finally won't have to squeeze into one bed anymore.

"Thank you. My family really needs cotton to make winter clothes. You all know about my family's situation." Uncle Bai was very moved.

Wang Fei and Zhong Qiming exchanged a glance, looked at their benefactor whose eyes were brimming with tears, and sighed at the same time.

"Brother, why don't you reconsider what we said and go live in town?"

Bai Jing was startled by their conversation.

Is Uncle San able to leave the village?

But why did her third uncle stay until the children grew up in her previous life?

Uncle Bai shook his head. "No, you don't understand the situation at home." He didn't like to talk about family matters, especially with his eldest brother.

Leaving wasn't difficult for him, but he was worried about his second and eldest brothers.

With him around, at least no one will starve.
