Chapter 93 Donkey

Manbao nodded repeatedly.
"This bone is not good. You see, it's flat at both ends and there's not much meat. Big bones are needed for making soup. See this one? There's a lot of meat attached to it. There's even bone marrow in the bone. The soup made from it is very delicious. I've peeled all the bones here and will take them back to make soup to feed the sows to increase their milk production."
The stall owner said, "You can also order spare ribs. Pork chops are also delicious."
Koko said: "This pile of bones is not as good as the big bones, but it is better than nothing, and it can also produce oil and water when boiled."
Manbao insisted, and the stall owner hesitated for a moment, "We are all from the same village, I won't ask for more from you, just give me ten cents and take it all, I won't weigh it."
Manbao was happy, but she wanted more than that. She also spent ten cents to buy a pound of the best fat meat.
Zhou Wulang and Zhou Liulang felt so painful watching from the side.
Manbao still has to buy salt because there is not much salt at home.
There were peddlers carrying salt to sell at the big market. The price was slightly higher than in the county town, but because it was convenient, many people would buy it here.
Manbao squatted in front of the peddler and looked at him for a long time. She felt that salt was more expensive than meat, but she had no choice but to buy some.
After buying meat and salt, Zhou Wulang suddenly felt a lot more pressure on his shoulders. If he didn't make money...
Zhou Wulang had a bitter face.
Manbao didn't care at all. He drooled and said, "If we don't make money, we won't sell it. We can eat it ourselves."
At this moment, Manbao had some hope, well, hope that it couldn't be sold.
Manbao climbed onto the back of the sixth brother, drooling at the meat and bones in the fifth brother's hand, but his will was not very firm. "Why don't we not make money, just take it home and eat it, and send a big bowl to the third brother."
Zhou Wulang quickened his pace and ignored her.
Manbao looked at Fifth Brother with regret as he walked further and further away with the meat...
The three of them bought the meat, so of course they couldn't stay , so they said goodbye to Zhou Erlang and went home.
It was not far from the market to home, so Zhou Wulang and Zhou Liulang quickened their pace and returned to the village entrance in less than three quarters of an hour.
On the way home, they had to pass by the school. Manbao saw her two little friends on the grass in front of the school gate. So Manbao didn't want to go home anymore, so she quickly slipped off Liuge's back and went out to play.
Zhou Liulang then told her, "Just play here and don't run around. I'll ask Daya to come and take care of you."
Manbao responded obediently, ran towards Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang, and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Bai Shanbao said unhappily, "We were waiting for you. Your family said you left, and we thought you left on your own and didn't wait for us."
"No," Manbao said, "I'm going to the market to buy some things. I'll bring some things to my third brother later. Can you still go today?"
"Of course you can," Bai Shanbao was a little , and he said with his chest puffed out, "Grandmother also asked Daji to go with me."
Bai Erlang didn't really want to go to that dusty place, but his father asked him to go with him. Even though he told his father that the teacher didn't assign him this homework, his father didn't care. Instead, he scolded him and asked him, they were obviously the teacher's students, Shanbao and Manbao were younger than him, why did the teacher assign this homework to them but not to him?
Bai Jilang thought, why else?
Of course it’s because he is likable, and those two people are not, so I assigned them more homework.
Although he was unhappy, resistance was futile, so Bai Erlang had no choice but to go with the two of them. However, he still took credit for it, "My father asked the donkey cart at home to take us there."
Manbao's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"Of course it's true. My father said that my donkey cart is mine for the next four days. You can order it at will whenever I go out." The prerequisite is that he has to follow them. Bai Erlang didn't understand at all why he had to follow these two little brats.
Bai Erlang, who was a little kid himself, said to Manbao unwillingly: "Hurry up, we are all waiting for you."
Manbao became excited and pulled them home. She decided to tell her fifth and sixth brothers the good news so that they wouldn't have to borrow a cart.
Zhou Wulang and Zhou Liulang had already been scolded by Xiao Qianshi, and were now packing up their things in the yard, preparing to start this business.
Zhou Liulang went to the vegetable garden and pulled four or five white radishes.
Xiao Qian was so distressed that she repeatedly reminded him, "If you can't sell them, bring them all back. Don't waste them."
The two brothers agreed.
Manbao dragged two friends over and said happily: "Fifth brother, Sixth brother, Bai Er has a donkey cart, we can go there by donkey cart!"
Zhou Wulang's eyes lit up, and he pretended to decline, "That's not good."
"What's wrong with that? He has to go anyway. He can go with an empty cart or with stuff in it." Manbao wasn't embarrassed at all and happily made the decision for everyone .
The one driving the coach is Daji.
The Bai family was worried about the two children, so they let the strong Daji go with them. When they learned that Zhou Wulang and Zhou Liulang were taking things to do business, Mr. Bai just raised his eyebrows and did not object to them using their own donkey cart.
After all, the three children are all young, and the more adults they follow, the better. Even though Zhou Wulang and Zhou Liulang are just teenagers, they are much more .
The group lifted the cauldron onto the donkey cart. The three children scrambled to sit on it, and they happily set off together on the official road to Baimaquan.
In the past, Bai Erlang and Bai Shanbao rode in horse-drawn carriages more often. This was their first time riding in an open donkey cart. It was extremely novel. Although their buttocks were a bit sore from the bumpy ride, they still felt very excited.
Not to mention Manbao, who had never ridden a donkey cart in her life. She was particularly curious and climbed to the front, reaching out to grab the donkey's tail.
Daji grabbed her hand and said with a smile, "Young lady, you can't grab the donkey's tail."
Manbao was particularly curious and asked, "Do donkeys eat grass?"
"yes."
"Is it expensive? Can it do a lot of work?" Manbao is a curious baby. He asked again and again: "Can it plow the land? Can I ride on its back and run as fast as a horse?"
Finally, he said, "I think it looks like a horse. I have seen horses. Horses are taller and more beautiful than it. Do they have the same mother?"
Daji: ...
Finally, it was Koko who jumped out to give her some scientific knowledge, and then said, "Both donkey skin and donkey meat have medicinal value. It will also be an endangered animal in the future. It is now a special protected species in the interstellar. Because it has evolved many times, its genes are somewhat different from the original species. The scientific and technological personnel are racking their brains for its reproduction. If possible, please include a donkey, preferably two, one male and one female. The Encyclopedia will give a generous reward."
Manbao said: "It's so expensive to buy a donkey. I don't have money."
