Chapter 113: Contemporary Mendel
The brother and sister each put down what they were holding and came to the courtyard together.
The large iron cage wrapped in black cloth was half a man tall and looked large enough to fit four or five adults.
Bai Yi unwrapped the tightly tied knot, and gently uncovered the corner of the black cloth, revealing the smooth black and shiny large iron cage inside.
"It's a pity that these iron cages are welded to death and can't be disassembled." Bai Yi sighed, and gently touched the iron cage containing the rabbit with his hand, "Otherwise, it can really be used directly." β
Bai Ling looked down inside, and his eyes immediately widened - the iron cage was full of white rabbits, each of which looked very good, with red eyes and ears...... It's very similar to the usual varieties in the laboratory in the past.
"Where did you get all these rabbits?"
"It's all specially raised."
"Did you raise it?"
"Of course." Bai Yi patted his chest, "Isn't it amazing." β
Bai Ling burst out laughing, an expression of disbelief on his face, "But you...... How did you? β
She was a little stuck, and she didn't know how to ask.
Bai Ling discovered a long time ago that Bai Yi, like himself, still had the same discomfort after coming to this world for several years.
It's just that compared to his own Buddhism, Bai Yi's movements are much bigger and more intense.
He desperately searched for his place here, studying, working, and doing a small business......
But with the exception of two years of learning to cook, and it seems that he really enjoys it and can continue to do it, almost nothing else lasts more than three months.
However, this is not because Bai Yi can't endure hardship, but he always has his own insistence on some issues.
For example, he can't accept the so-called Confucianism Bagu here, and he hates the contempt for technology and computing here, so no matter how many private schools he changes, he and the teacher there will never get along;
For example, he couldn't accept the long-term labor system that was almost a contract worker here, so he signed a contract to eat and live in the master's house from then on, and at the end of the day, except for two meals and a short sleep, he was either working or on standby at the rest of the time, and had no time for himself at all;
Another example......
There were too many such things, and some of his edges and corners had indeed been smoothed out by repeated impacts, but Bai Ling could feel that some parts of his heart had also become harder than before.
For example, he almost completely avoided talking about his past career, and in all topics, he isolated this part and never talked about it.
But Bai Ling could see that Bai Yi cared in his heart - this was like a spiritual cleanliness, and it was precisely because he avoided talking about it that he could see the status of this matter in his heart.
But who would have thought that he would raise rabbits in Baiwei House alone?
Or is this rabbit just the tip of the iceberg, and in some places that Bai Ling has not seen, Bai Yi has used his own way to reminisce about the past that only he knows?
Bai Ling tilted his head, looking at Bai Yi's gaze becoming more and more complicated.
With a smile on his face, Bai Yi continued, "When I first arrived at Baiwei Building, I took care of logistics for a while, and at that time, chickens were fed to pigs and rabbits every day. At that time, most of the rabbits were gray rabbits, yellow rabbits and flower rabbits, and one day I saw a newborn white rabbit inside.
Bai Yi continued, "Usually the rabbit species we use are New Zealand rabbits and Japanese big-eared rabbits...... Did you know that the former is the most common kind of white rabbit, and the latter has very large and thick ears? β
"Yes." Bai Ling replied softly, looking at Bai Yi's slightly excited appearance, she nodded seriously.
"I was shocked when I saw the little white rabbit because it really looked like the New Zealand rabbit I had in the past."
Bai Yi looked at the cage with a gentle smile in his eyes, "Later, I will breed the rabbit with the yellow rabbit and the gray rabbit, so that the third generation will generally produce one or two white rabbits." Rabbits breed quickly, one or two months can give birth to a litter, and when the white rabbit base is up, and then use the white rabbits of different ancestors to continue to breed, and all you get is a white rabbit. β
"It's modern-day Mendel." Bai Ling clapped his hands heartily.
This praise made Bai Yi very useful, and even a little embarrassed.
"Of course, the price of the white rabbit is ten times that of an ordinary rabbit, otherwise Baiweilou would not allow me to play like this." Bai Yi added softly, "People in this place seem to like to pick up white things as auspicious when they see them." β
At this point, both fell silent at the same time.
Because Wei Fourteen's shadow invariably broke into their minds at this time.
Bai Ling lowered his head and smiled, and suddenly pulled up Bai Yi's sleeves, "Come here, I have learned some new skills in the palace in the past few days, and you just happened to be here today, I will show you palmistry." β
"But I'm not done here yet, or you'll wait for meβ"
"You still have a whole day to work," Bai Ling said softly, "I will go back before noon, after all, there is a garden party in the palace in the evening." β
Bai Yi suddenly understood, and he put the black cloth that shielded him from the wind on the iron cage again two or three times, "Okay." β
"There's a lot of dust in the firewood room, shall we find another place to sit?"
"Okay," Bai Yi nodded, "Then I'll take you to the small garden in front." β
The brother and sister walked forward together, and Jinyiwei followed four or five steps behind.
This was the first time that Bai Ling felt that there was such a thing as "sight", and the gaze cast by the four cold eyes from behind made her scalp tingle.
Compared with the brocade guards who are just standing guard elsewhere, these people guarding Bai Yi's place are obviously different - they are ordered to keep an eye on Bai Yi's every move, and these are not available in Bai Shijun's place.
All kinds of speculation came to Bai Ling's mind, but she still kept adjusting her breathing to calm herself.
She had to confirm a few things with him, but she couldn't speak directly in English without blatantly speaking.
This is not comparable to Chengqian Palace, and Jinyiwei is not Jia's father-in-law, so he came up directly and used hard means to ask Fang Cai what the two of them said, and Jinyiwei did it.
Bai Yi soon took Bai Ling to what he called the small garden - this place is really not big, and it is a bit of an exaggeration to call it a garden.
Although it was a spring of March, the day when the flowers were gradually blooming, there were green bushes everywhere, and in the middle stood an unmanned pavilion with a chessboard and two boxes of Go weaving baskets.
The two did not sit down at the stone table in the pavilion, but leaned against a circle of wooden railings around the pavilion.
As soon as the two of them sat down, Bai Ling said, "Give me your hand." β
Bai Yi did so.
Bai Ling reminded matter-of-factly, "The man is on the left, the woman is on the right, and the other hand is on the right." β
"Oh......"
Bai Yi was a little puzzled, but he still handed his left hand over.
