Chapter 401: The Hen Steals the Egg
ps: Thanks oć°ćă. Reward with the loyal!
When they woke up in the morning, they found that the ground was wet and the sky was filled with smoke and rain. Everyone realized that the spring rain had arrived, which meant that the season of cultivation followed.
"Spring rain is good, there is no cold of winter rain, and there is no torrential summer rain, it is very gentle." Ye Caiping said.
Chu Jiaqiang and the others nodded, this kind of smoke and rain is actually similar to fog, people go out, as long as they don't stay outside for a long time, they won't even get their clothes wet.
"The plants in the ground are growing well this time, and the spring rain is as precious as oil." Chu Jiaqiang said with a smile.
Two geese walked in from outside and teased the drizzle. Their feathers do not get wet, and even if it rains heavily, it will not affect them at all. Mrs. Wan took some corn kernels and walked to the backyard with them, ready to feed the chickens, ducks and geese in the backyard.
In recent times, the corn kernels at home have been depleted very quickly. In addition to their own chickens, ducks and geese to eat, those swans and even some small birds will get up early and wait.
The three bears are still asleep, they are all lazy, there is no ** point, and it is estimated that they will not wake up. They ate a lot of things last night, big fish and meat, and you are not welcome at all.
The little squirrel washed his face first, and then said hello to Chu Jiaqiang and the others. After Brother Wren got up, he shouted all over the world to get up, and sometimes he saw that everyone in the family was up, and even flew to Jackton next door to shout at Ye Qijun's house.
When the tiger wakes up, it prepares to go into the mountains, which is also a compulsory course for it, even if it can't find its prey. You have to go in and take a walk, the sport of sports.
"I'll go to other people's houses in the village later, buy some corn and come back, and drive it to the town to break it. Otherwise, those chickens, ducks and geese will be left to eat. The second aunt spoke.
After saying that, she went to Jackton's house next door and called her own girl. That girl has been at Jackton's for the past few days, sleeping with a few foreign girls. After more contact with these people, Chu Jiawan found that her English level had improved a lot, especially in speaking and listening.
I have to say. The environment plays a key role in human learning. When you integrate into that particular environment, you will find that you learn things very quickly. It's not hard to explain that when you're in that environment, even if you don't want to study, the environment will guide you to study.
Chu Jiaqiang came to the backyard and found that the peach blossoms had bloomed more intensely, and the vegetables in the vegetable field seemed to have grown a lot overnight. Some farmers say that spring rain is actually fertilizing crops. This is not without reason. The effect is very noticeable.
On the branches, there are quite a few birds. They were chirping and chirping while waiting for the old woman to feed them.
Mrs. Wan and Mrs. Hong carried corn kernels over and released the chickens, ducks and geese in the chicken coop and duck coop. The swans also gathered around, stretching their necks one by one to eat. Although there is a lot of food in the big ditch, you can't always eat those aquatic creatures, and eating some multigrains will be of great benefit to them.
Multigrains are important not only for other things, but also for people. If people eat a little more grains, they will be significantly healthier, and they will eat and fish every day. Growth may also be stunted.
They sprinkled the corn kernels on the ground, and all the animals began to peck at them. The little bird in the tree flew down, and was afraid of being trampled on, so it picked up the food and flew away immediately. It is their natural duty to take them back and feed the "kids" in their nests. All animals in the world are very protective of their cubs, and they would rather go hungry themselves. And also not let the "children" have an empty belly.
"Huh! These birds, the big white goose used to not let them come down to eat, but then I appeased them a few times, and then I allowed them to exist. Mrs. Wan smiled.
No wonder the corn at home is so fast gone. With so many wild animals flying over to "eat", the consumption must be great.
"It's good that the geese over there didn't come with them, otherwise there wouldn't be enough food!" Chu Jiaqiang secretly wiped a handful of sweat. If the more than 1,000 geese come, ordinary people really can't bear it, each goose is about twice as big as chickens and ducks, one weighs eleven or twelve pounds, and eating is not sloppy.
The two old women didn't say anything, but went to the chicken coop and duck coop to take a look and pick out the eggs and duck eggs scattered inside. The piles are ignored, and the piles are the hens who are ready to hold the eggs and put the chicks.
"Huh! There was actually a duck egg. Mrs. Hong said with a smile. She saw a duck egg in the pile of eggs, which was easy to distinguish, and the duck eggs were usually whiter and larger.
"Huh! That's not right! It doesn't seem to be a duck egg. What was stolen from the hen? "Mrs. Wan often picks up eggs, and the eggs and duck eggs can be seen at a glance. And it is not a matter of a day or two for hens to steal eggs from "others", such a situation has happened before, and Mrs. Wan knows it very well.
Chu Jiaqiang walked over and found that it was really not a duck egg. It seemed that it was supposed to be the goose eggs of those swans, but they were picked up by the hens and hugged by themselves. Looking at the egg, it was obviously bigger than a duck's egg, and it was also blue and white.
Ducks and geese lay eggs very casually, and they are born in a place that is not easy to find. Afterwards, you may forget about the egg, which can be said to be very irresponsible. Unlike hens, during the egg holding period, except for a moment to eat, they squat on it at other times.
"Huh! Ignore it, just let it drum! Chu Jiaqiang didn't care too much. Hens are strange creatures that their children will not recognize and will be stupid to help others work.
If you put the duck eggs together and they see them, they will definitely crouch on them. Many people breed ducklings with hens. Female ducks are very clumsy, walk with a lot of feet, and easily trample their eggs.
Back in the house, Ye Caiping, Xu Qian and others had already made breakfast. Breakfast is also very simple, but everyone likes it, it is white porridge, a plate of dried radishes on the table, a plate of sauerkraut, and fried ghosts, that is, fried dough sticks.
Fritters are actually not difficult to make, rub them a few times with flour heating water to make flour noodles, and then put them in the oil and swim around, and you can fish them up. However, it's better to wait a little longer, just caught up, the heat is too heavy.
"I haven't eaten polenta for a long time, Aunt Xu, let's corn porridge tomorrow!" Zhou Furong said to Xu Qian.
Xu Qian smiled: "Okay, as long as you like it." With or without sugar? â
"Add a little more! But not too much, too sweet and easy to get tired. Chen Wu was not polite, and directly said his request. It's good here, especially when it comes to eating, just talk about what you want to eat.
After breakfast, everyone helped to collect vegetables in the meadow. Today, Chu Jiaqiang is going to put away all the vegetables in the vegetable field, and take advantage of the spring rain to plant melons and beans.
