Chapter 88: Chicken Plague
During the wheat harvest, the farm work is busy and tiring, and people sell fewer eggs, so they are kept to improve their lives. "Three Summers" is over, and there are still not many people selling eggs, and grandma feels strange.
When the people from the stone temple came to buy things, they learned that the nearby villages were "spreading chickens", that is, there was a large-scale outbreak of chicken plague. The man was also strange: "This year, the chickens are spreading so badly, and the chickens in the nearby village are dying, and the chickens in your village are not dead?"
"No, when did this happen?" asked Grandma hurriedly.
"That is, in the past few days, my chickens were fine the day before, but the next day they spread the coop, and several of them died. It was bloodletting and garlic feeding, and only three of them survived, and they didn't lay eggs anymore, and half of the more than ten chicks that were fed were not left. Hurry up and feed the chickens garlic, maybe you can get out of it. The woman kindly reminded.
"Thanks to your reminder, I hurriedly told everyone to go, I was busy harvesting wheat, and I really don't know. ”
Youyou thought to himself: It seems that he has not worked in vain, and the anti-epidemic medicine that has been stolen all over the village has finally worked. At the same time, I admire the wisdom of the people, and you must know that using garlic to prevent and treat chicken plague until future generations is also the most effective method.
Yoyo immediately ran to sprinkle chicken food mixed with epidemic prevention medicine in the whole village, fortunately, the chickens in the village are free-range, and Yoyo walked around as if playing, and the chickens in the whole village were prevented from the epidemic.
Grandma immediately told everyone the news of the chicken plague nearby, and every family was busy chopping garlic and mixing it with chicken food, and the chickens were re-circled, and the whole village was like a big enemy.
Everyone told each other that they should try not to leave their relatives recently, and they should not leave their relatives to stay in the house, and they could not help their relatives raise chickens.
really let everyone talk, and in the evening, the eldest daughter and husband of the second grandmother's family brought their own chickens in a chicken coop. The second grandmother saw it, but she didn't even let them in the door.
Her daughter was about to cry: "Mother, my mother-in-law asked me to send it, and the chickens in our village are very good." But my chickens are really not sick, so let me let them go. ”
Her son-in-law also said: "My mother said, if you can't hide, no one will complain." Besides, the two of us came while it was dark, and our family was in the village again, and no one saw it. ”
The second grandmother was angry: "Are you two really stupid or fake stupid, this is something that can be hidden, besides, the elders of our family, the people of a village respect me and your father, I can't do such a conscientious thing." ”
Then he said to his daughter: "Go back and tell your mother-in-law, our family has fed a lot of chickens this year, and your chickens are really dead, so I will give you a few hens." You two hurry up and take the chickens and go, don't pass on our chickens, and besides, there are sixty or seventy chickens in the Yoyo family, don't you have a brain?"
The second grandmother took her daughter away, shoveled a few shovels of lime in the pigsty in the team and sprinkled them in her yard for disinfection, and also came to Youyou's house to explain the situation, so that Grandma Youyou could pay attention to her chickens and take measures if there was a situation.
Yoyo admired the character of the second grandmother even more, and at night, the entire compound was thoroughly disinfected.
The chicken plague came and went quickly, and the chickens in Hantun Village were not infected. The people in the surrounding villages began to guess, saying that it was the ammonia used by Hantun for disinfection, and people smelled uncomfortable, the virus was smoked to death, and the chickens in the village were sacrificed.
They all complained that the cadres in their villages had no vision and no knowledge, saying that since the superiors called for the use of ammonia, it must be beneficial. The country can still harm the people, no matter what time it is, you have to listen to the words of the great leader, and it is right to follow the party.
After listening to these discussions, you were speechless, where is this, and the brain is too outrageous.
On the twelfth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar, elementary school opened. Mom was finally freed from the heavy labor and stood on the podium. Yoyo breathed a sigh of relief, made a cup of honey water for his mother to drink every morning and evening, and hurriedly helped his mother restore her tanned skin.
The mother didn't know the inside story, and said with emotion: "The girl is still careful, knows the cold and knows the heat, no wonder they all say that the girl is the mother's personal little padded jacket." ”
Youyou deliberately angered her: "On such a hot day, do you still want a padded jacket, isn't it too hot?" made the family laugh crookedly.
After the micro, the mother looks at Ni. People grind new wheat noodles, steamed steamed buns and sugar buns, as gifts to see the married girl.
The second grandmother had a better life this year, and she went to see her two daughters for the first time. As a result, I came back with tears in my eyes every time. The second master came to find grandma and asked her to persuade her.
It turned out that when I went to the eldest daughter's house, I was angry with the old lady of my in-laws, complaining that she was not kind, and only three of their chickens died in the chicken plague. The second grandmother promised her to wait for the chicks to be bigger, and to give her a few hens when she could separate the male and female.
Unexpectedly, she said in a weird manner: "I don't dare to ask for your chicken, for fear of sticking to poverty." "The second grandmother was angry when she saw that she was in her daughter, and she was not wronged somehow.
The eldest daughter has three brothers-in-law, her daughter is married to the eldest one, the second one is separated when she gets married, and the third one has not yet started a family.
Her mother-in-law said that she relied on the boss to support her for the elderly, and she lived with the boss when she was old. In fact, I am afraid that the family will be separated, and the daughter-in-law will take care of the poor mother's family.
It's okay to be together, but her mother-in-law is notoriously harsh and daughter-in-law. Although the son-in-law is good, he can't control his mother from bullying his wife.
The second daughter's family welcomed her guests and treated her with great courtesy, and her in-laws also specially arranged osmanthus twisting the pot to entertain the in-laws. This is a very high treatment in a village where each person only distributes a few catties of wheat.
Osmanthus had red faces and red ears, and did not dare to respond. It turned out that he was poor in his mother's house, and he had never done a wringing nest, and he couldn't do it. The second mother remembered the suffering of the child with her, and felt uncomfortable.
Grandma persuaded her: "Second grandma, you are weak, don't feel uncomfortable, it's not worth getting sick." Originally, I was happy to see my daughter, but your old relative left. With this angry energy, let's keep it and live a good life, and the mother's family is strong, and the girl has the confidence.
If you really can't do it, you will split up, and if you want it, you won't give it to her, we shouldn't give it to our daughter. No one has been rich or poor for ten years, how smooth your family's life is this year, in my opinion, you can turn over this year. ”
The second grandmother also came to the heart: "Xiuqin, what you said is this, I will take the eldest daughter home tomorrow and let the children have a good meal for a few days." I didn't have a good life at home before, and I didn't enjoy happiness when I entered her mother-in-law's house, and I had to suffer from her mother-in-law's anger. ”
Grandma followed and coaxed: "That is, you take the eldest girl and the child to live for a while, our village has a good harvest this year, and the children's rations are not bad." Let her go to the river beach to cut the grass and feed the pigs in the team, she can earn ten points a day, and she is afraid that it will not be enough for her mother and mother to eat. My rubber-tyred car is idle, let her use it first. ”
The team collects grass to feed pigs and cattle, and ten catties of grass for one work, and the alfalfa on the river beach has grown to more than a foot high, and it can be cut 100 catties in the morning.
It's far away from home, and it's hard to carry it back. However, pushing a rubber-tyred car, two trips a day can push back more than 100 catties.
"Then dare to be kind, I'll let Baojing pick up his eldest sister tomorrow. The second grandmother's face was happy.
Youyou thought to himself, how can there be such a persuasion, nothing to provoke other husbands and wives to separate. But seeing the excitement of the two old ladies, I had to complain in my heart. It seems that the mother's family is really a backer and pillar for the girl.
