Chapter 109: Hundred acres of woodland
"Yunxi, your judgment is right."
As soon as he left the house, Ye Yuan, who was standing in the courtyard, was like this to Yunxi.
Yunxi was puzzled, "What judgment?" ”
Looks like you haven't done anything other than planting flowers and grass lately?
"It's about raising chickens." Ye Yuan took the initiative to solve his doubts, "Yesterday, Wei San said, although you raise it, the more the merrier." ”
"The more the merrier? Why? Yunxi asked, "Could it be that the imperial court really has a big move, or does it want to improve the food of the soldiers?" ”
Ye Yuan shook his head, "Wei San has no reason, but I think of a general, so I won't tease us, right?" ”
"General, he's certainly not that kind of person anymore."
Funny? Definitely not, Yunxi was deeply impressed by General Yang, who was dressed in black that day. is obviously a chivalrous man, how can he do vulgar things?
Ye Yuan also nodded, "I think so, it's just to expand the chicken pen." The more chickens are crowded together, and it is easy to get sick. ”
Thinking about the avian flu in later generations, Yunxi shuddered, not only countless chickens, ducks and geese were slaughtered and burned, but even people may be infected, with the current medical conditions, it is estimated that they can only wait for death, right?
Thinking of this, Yunxi hurriedly reminded: "Dad, we have to pay attention to hygiene, if we get chicken plague, it will be a big trouble." Find a doctor to prescribe some preventive Chinese medicine, and often boil it for chickens to drink. ”
Ye Yuan smiled: "Dad has already done this, when you think about it, the daylilies are cold!" ”
Yunxi: This means that he is late. It's just "daylily", not "cucumber dish"? If you think about it, there is no such thing as cucumber yet, so it should be "daylily". Thinking about it carefully, Yunxi suddenly realized, this is the sobering egg soup at the end of the banquet, right? There's really daylily in there. Hua Yunxi has always used it as a "rolling egg soup", and has never thought about "daylily soup".
"I really forgot about that." Yunxi frankly admitted, "But one thing is not too late now, but just right." ”
"Oh, what's the matter, look."
Yunxi smiled: "Isn't it a chicken pen?" Why not build on the back mountain, you can circle the back mountain, so that the range of activities is large, and it is not easy to get sick? ”
This is the Lin family who came out with his waist in hand, and Ye Yuan hurriedly stepped forward to help, "Why did you come out by yourself, what about Chunlan?" As the Lin family's delivery date approached, Ye Yuan became more and more nervous, and he couldn't wait to guard his daughter-in-law all day long. Every once in a while, he asked Fu Bo to invite the doctor to check the pulse, and even ran to the nearby Wen Po's house, if it wasn't for Wen Po being too busy, he would definitely pick them up early in the morning, and that's it, and he came a few days in advance.
It's no wonder that it is dangerous for women at this age to give birth to children, there are few stable women, and even fewer stable women who understand medical skills. Therefore, you must choose carefully to find a stable woman, you can find the old but not the young, it is best to be forty or fifty years old, with sufficient experience and good physical strength; If the conditions are good, ask a doctor to be on standby at any time. That's it, most of the time it's still fate.
"What are you father and daughter?" Lin asked.
Ye Yuan took his daughter's suggestion and nodded, "This is a good idea, I think it is feasible." ”
Ye Yuan said: "I think it's not bad, but I'm worried about whether there will be stealing and stealing, after all, it's in the mountains." ”
Lin smiled: "Then what's the fear, just build the chicken coop together and bring them in at night." The chickens can't see at night and won't run around. It would be nice to find two more people to keep watch at night. ”
"Daddy, money can help." Yunxi Road.
"Okay." Ye Yuan agreed, "Anyway, if you raise a lot, someone has to watch it." ”
Just do it, after breakfast, Ye Yuan hurriedly discussed with Ye Fu, and hurriedly asked someone to help while the wheat had not yet been harvested, and carved out a piece of land in the back mountain. There is no need to lay bricks, only a path is cut along the perimeter, and then a wooden fence is made from the cut trees.
Ye Fu nodded when he heard this, so he only needed to spend some manpower. The chicken coop can also be repaired slowly, because the chickens can sleep in the trees at night without worrying about being pulled away by the weasel.
"Dongjia, when Ye Xi and I sleep on the mountain at night, and raise two more dogs, we must not let people steal them." Ye Fudao.
"Okay!" Ye Yuan nodded, "When Xuan Niang is born, I will go to rotate with you." ”
Ye Fu didn't use it pretentiously, in fact, Fu Luxi and the three of them were all free bodies, but none of them wanted to leave. The three of them, including Ye Shou, who is no longer there, are all orphans raised by Ye Yuan's father, and they have grown up with Ye Yuan since they were older. Now doing things in the Ye family, firstly, it is to repay the gratitude, and secondly, it is also used to it, and it is not the same as having to live to support the family when you go out, it is better to be happy with the brothers.
The two discussed it and went to the mountain together to choose a place. In fact, you don't have to choose, it must be the closer to home, the more convenient. But it can't be too close, otherwise when the wind blows, it stinks, how can you live?
In order not to be smoked by the big man, the two unanimously decided that it would be better to expand the range a little bit, so that it would not be dispersed? It won't stink. So, the two circled nearly 100 acres of mountains and forests, and took the people they invited to do it.
Grandma Zhang waited for five or six days, but she didn't see the chicken, so she asked about her son-in-law, and when she heard it, she was less than half around. Not only did he ask, "How big of a circle are you guys?" ”
Ye Yuan smiled: "It's only a hundred acres, not much." ”
……
Grandma and Lin's family, as well as Yunxi, were all dumbfounded after hearing this, there are not many acres in a hundred acres? You're not raising chickens, you're raising cows and horses, are you?
Ye Yuan didn't expect his mother-in-law and the Lin family to be so surprised, "Is this a lot?" ”
"Does that still work?" Grandma said unceremoniously, "Let me ask you, how many chickens do we have now?" ”
Ye Yuan thought about it, in the last month or two, almost 1,500 chickens have been hatched, plus the Ye family's own chickens, it seems that there are more than 2,000, right? Let's count it according to 3,000, 100 acres of land, and only 30 chickens are allocated for one acre of land? Looks like it's a little bigger, right?
"Isn't this for the sake of future development?" Ye Yuan was humble, "Isn't that Yunxi gone, it's not worth raising two or three thousand, and if you raise one or two thousand, it's not very big!" ”
Zhang is a mother-in-law, so she is embarrassed to continue. The Lin family was ruthless, "It's too much to raise forty or fifty thousand." ”
Ye Yuan didn't dare to refute the big-bellied daughter-in-law, so he had to laugh, and the Lin family couldn't do anything about him, so he had to mumble a few words.
Yunkai people, there is no concept, I don't understand what's so big about this, and when Yunxi explained to her, he was also surprised, and opened his mouth and said: "Dad, are you going to raise a wild **?" It's such a big place, it's no wonder that you can find it out. ”
Ye Yuan thought about it, too, although the trees in the back mountain are not high, does it mean that the trees are not dense? The chicken is tall again, just drill into that one, can you find it yourself?
"Then what should I do, no, I'll go and let them circle it now!" Ye Yuan walked out in a hurry, saying that Ye Yuan was busy after the beginning of spring, and he became more and more like a farmer. The literati atmosphere of the past is almost gone. Hey, life is more exercised!
