Chapter 147: Hatching Eggs
Ye Chuliang glanced at her, then smiled self-deprecatingly before turning around and walking out of the room.
Riding on the red shoots to apply needles to Grandma Wang, Ye Chuliang looked around in the yard.
This yard is not big, but it can be seen from the layout of the yard that this Grandma Wang must be a person who can take care of it.
On the east side of the courtyard are rows of neatly groomed vegetables, and at this time there are still some greens and cabbage.
On the west side of the yard is a house made of mud, and when Ye Chuliang got closer, it should be the place where livestock were kept in captivity before.
Now that the shadow of livestock is long gone, it seems that in the year of disaster, except for people, there will probably be nothing left to breathe.
"Sister Chu Liang, I looked back and forth, and I really don't know where she put those livestock." Huang Qiu walked in from outside the courtyard.
Ye Chuliang sighed deeply, "Alas, I think it's probably gone, it's a problem for people to eat, how can they still have the ability to raise those livestock?" ”
"yes, that's what my mother does." Huang Qiu nodded in agreement.
Ye Chuliang glanced at him, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing.
When Ye Chuliang finished dinner, Grandma Wang finally woke up.
Looking at the food on the table in front of her, she couldn't believe her eyes.
Ye Chuliang helped her to sit down, "I listen to the neighbors around you, you haven't eaten for a few years?" ”
"Ever since the old man left, I've always forgotten to eat, and I've always forgotten to cook." Grandma Wang shook her head with a tangled face.
Ye Chuliang sat down beside her, "Was Grandpa Wang very good to you when he was alive?" ”
There were faint tears in Grandma Wang's eyes, "Yes, we have been married for 50 years, although we have no children, but in his heart, I am just like a child, except for eating and sleeping, he will help me do almost everything, as soon as he leaves, I will do everything." ”
This love is really enviable, but after the person who has been giving leaves first, the person who stays will inevitably be sad.
"I'll help you cook every time I come in the future, so you don't have to go hungry." Ye Chuliang's voice was gentle and authentic.
Grandma Wang raised her moist eyes and looked at Ye Chuliang's eyes very puzzled.
"You...... Are you the girl of the Ye family? Grandma Wang looked at it for a while before asking.
Ye Chuliang pulled her wrist and smiled: "Yes, I'm Chuliang, just tell me if you need help in the future." ”
"Alas, you are such a good girl......" Grandma Wang patted the back of Ye Chuliang's hand, which felt as if her grandmother was alive.
Ye Chuliang suddenly felt that her eyes were sour, she took a deep breath, then pushed the food in front of Grandma Wang, and said with a smile: "Eat, you haven't eaten for a while, I boiled zero porridge, it was warm, it must be very comfortable to drink." ”
Grandma Wang showed a warm smile and took a shallow sip.
I don't know if the warm porridge had an effect, or if Ye Chuliang gave the other party warmth, and soon Grandma Wang's pale face eased a lot.
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded outside the door, "Sister Chu Liang, we have already put the shrimp away......"
With the voice entering the door, it was Hongshao, and when she saw Grandma Wang sitting, she couldn't help but cry out with her high chest, "Are you ......awake?"
Huang Qiu followed closely behind, and when he saw Grandma Wang, he couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Grandma Wang, why don't you have any livestock?" ”
Grandma Wang put down the bowl and sighed deeply, "Alas, it's not that this year's disasters are continuous, people are almost out of food, how can there be rations to raise those animals, it's not that the old man is gone, and the last few livestock in the family have also been killed to entertain people." ”
"Oops, that's a pity." Huang Qiu slapped his thigh and exclaimed in disappointment.
"Why, you're here for those brutes?" Grandma Wang's words were clearly vigilant.
Ye Chu smiled coldly: "We originally wanted to exchange some livestock with you today, but we brought all the grain." She gestured to a bag of rice grain piled up in the corner.
Grandma Wang's vigilance slowly disappeared, "Alas, it's a pity that the last few were killed, and there are no more." ”
"It's okay, if you don't have it, you won't have it, you keep these rations, if there is anything missing in the future, I will bring it to you." Ye Chu said coolly.
"I remember that I still have some eggs at home, and I don't know if those eggs can hatch into livestock, or I will give them to you to take back to try, even if they don't, there is nothing to lose." Grandma Wang got up and walked to the room.
Soon she came out with more than a dozen eggs, including eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs, thinking that Grandma Wang and Grandpa Wang were usually very thrifty people.
Ye Chuliang was a little excited, she was holding the bamboo basket containing the eggs, the corners of her mouth rose slightly and smiled: "Thank you very much, if you need us to do anything in the future, you must not be polite, I will definitely come over to help you cook as long as I am free." ”
"Alas, my old man is gone, how long can I live, alas, let's live a one." Grandma Wang was a little lost.
"No, it won't, as long as life is full of hope, you can naturally prolong your life, we have a lot of people on the mountain, we can help you in the future." Ye Chuliang took Grandma Wang's hand and comforted.
……
No one expected that the original exchange for livestock ended up in exchange for some eggs.
Looking at the basket of eggs, Ye Chuliang suddenly lost his mind.
"Sister Chu Liang, do we really want to hatch eggs?" Red Shoot's hand rolled back and forth on the egg twice, boring.
Ye Chuliang touched his chin, looked at the egg thoughtfully, and then said: "I think it's okay to try, if it can really hatch, it is estimated that there are few families in the village who still have livestock, and this thing is probably the last hope." ”
"But how do you hatch?" Red Tip pouted.
Ye Chuliang smiled, "Fortunately, I still know a little, although I'm not sure, but the general method will still know, wait for me to try it first." ”
"Why don't we ask Grandma Wang, she must know."
"Alas, that's because you didn't listen to herself, except for eating and sleeping, the things in their family have always been done by the old man." Ye Chu said with a cold smile.
"I'll help you, I've never heard of anyone hatching chickens." Dongfang Yanhe smiled innocently.
"Okay......"
……
Ye Chuliang prepared the hot spring water, and also prepared some forage and quilts, although the air is getting colder and colder, and the cotton is lacking, but in order to hatch livestock, Ye Chuliang has to sacrifice his quilt, and he makes do with the red shoots.
The most feared thing about hatching eggs is that the temperature is high and low, or too high and too low, so it is very important to master the temperature.
