Chapter Seventy-Six: Panic
Li Ruzhou's eyes widened, and she looked at Cai Wei incredulously, and she really couldn't figure out why she bought so many chicks at once.
Cai Wei also resolutely did not reveal her secret, Li Ruzhou could only do what she promised, and the next day, she personally sent the hundred chicks and a bag of millet over.
Looking at the little chicks running around with little yellow wings all over the yard, Li Ruzhou was worried for Cai Wei, "When this bag of millet is finished, what do I see you feeding?" ”
Cai Wei smiled silently, sent him away, and then turned back to see the little chicks.
It was a hot day, and the chicks were very lively, running on the ground, and when they were tired, they would find a shady place to lie under the fence.
Cai Wei was fascinated, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously smiled.
Lu Ying crossed her arms, leaned on the door frame of the side room, and looked at Cai Wei without blinking.
This girl has changed a little, although her body is still fat, but not as fat as before, with a waist, I can see the curve.
The face is not as dark as before, the chin is much sharper, and the facial features are clearer.
He has seen the hard work of these days.
Whenever he saw this girl standing in the yard practicing one move at a time, he felt tired. But even if she is sweating profusely and panting, this girl will not slacken, and she can practice every move and style.
He is a master of martial arts, so he can naturally see how hard Cai Wei is.
Such a person, similar to him, has a ruthlessness in his bones.
He loves it and admires it immensely!
Cai Wei also has no experience in raising chicks, but she has studied medicine and knows that humans and animals are connected.
Chicks and children are the same, they need to be carefully raised and precise, so that the survival rate is high.
She first poured water into the pot, grabbed a few large handfuls of millet, boiled them, cooled them thoroughly, and then made a few clean bluestone slabs and sprinkled them on them.
The little chick flew with his wings and scrambled, squeezing his head and being next to each other, eating so fragrantly.
Lu Ying looked straight, it was the first time he had seen such a scene.
I have lived so big, and I don't know how many chickens I have eaten, but I have never raised chickens.
Seeing Cai Wei holding a large coarse porcelain sea bowl, he also saw that his hands were itching, so he squatted next to her, and grabbed a handful of boiled millet from the bowl and sprinkled it on the bluestone slab.
But after a while, the hundred chicks ate a large bowl of millet.
Cai Wei no longer served it in the pot, Lu Ying looked at the group of chickens who were still staring at the big bowl, and asked puzzledly, "Why don't you eat it?" ”
Cai Wei pursed her lips and smiled, and slowly stood up, "I can't give them enough food, so they will dig in the soil." ”
Lu Ying sounded very novel, yes, the little chicks were full, so they didn't want to move, and they would slowly get more and more lazy.
He was more and more impressed with Cai Wei, and he only felt that this girl knew so much, so much that sometimes even he couldn't imagine it.
After the two of them finished feeding the chickens, it was time to eat lunch.
The family has always been poor, and they don't pay so much attention to it, Cai Wei calculates when it's almost time to cook, and she doesn't pay attention to what she doesn't eat for lunch.
For her, a person who is used to eating three meals a day, two meals a day is too cruel. What's more, the original body has a great appetite, and it is not easy to accept it if it is cut off all of a sudden.
She can only adhere to the principle of "eat well in the morning, eat enough in the afternoon, and eat less in the evening", "keep your mouth shut and open your legs", and take a two-pronged approach.
Besides, now that she's seen the results, she just has to keep going.
When Li Ruzhou gave the chicks today, he really bought a few roast chickens by the way, so the lunch was more sumptuous.
Millet porridge, white flour cakes, roast chicken, and two more vegetarian dishes.
A plate of cold purslane, blanch it with boiling water, crush the coarse salt and sprinkle it, put minced garlic, and pour some boiling soybean oil.
A plate of vegetarian fried leeks, with a little chili pepper and a little salt.
Cai Wei deliberately took out the broken table in the house and placed it in the shade of the courtyard.
Widow Mu was still hiding in the house and didn't come out, Cai Wei couldn't get words out of her mouth, and she didn't embarrass her for the sake of her nurturing, so she specially brought her food and put it on the kang.
She and Lu Ying sat on a small bench and ate heartily at the table.
Lu Ying ate a bite of cake and drank a mouthful of millet porridge, and then a chopstick purslane, only feeling that her teeth and cheeks were fragrant, which was better than any meal.
He watched Cai Wei drink porridge and eat vegetables in small sips, and suddenly felt a feeling of living at home in his heart.
Perhaps, he is really fit to live such a life.
That kind of day of devouring blood on the knife edge, even if he is such a cold and cold person, he has enough of it, and he really yearns for this kind of idyllic home life.
Ever since he was injured and rescued by this girl, he has loved this kind of day.
The deceit of officialdom, the dark and cruel Zhaojiao, and the open and secret battles in the court are all better than accompanying this girl to eat an ordinary homely meal.
He is fortunate to be able to live such a life in this life, and he should thank this girl well.
Cai Wei felt uncomfortable as she ate, as if two eyes were always staring at her, which made her scalp a little tight.
She raised her head suddenly, facing Lu Ying's eyes that looked at her faintly.
Her face suddenly became hot, and she just felt that she didn't know how to get along with him.
For some reason, she suddenly remembered that when she was almost killed by Wangcai, after he appeared in time to save her life, she snuggled into his solid embrace, and the sense of security in her heart was stronger than ever.
Crossing over, although she behaved optimistic and strong, God knows how unsteady and melancholy she was in her heart.
But this man's arms are so warm and reliable!
Now that he looked at her like this, she didn't scold him like usual, and her heart was like breaking into a fawn, and she blushed and hung her head in a heartbeat.
The chopsticks picked up the purslane and stuffed it into her mouth, hiding her panic, but the hand was so trembling that she had betrayed her heart, and she almost couldn't hold the dish.
Lu Ying retracted her gaze and quietly lowered her head to eat.
He was afraid that he would not be able to give her the life she wanted to live, even if he promised to marry her, but he didn't want her to be frightened with him.
The two men suddenly fell silent, neither of them saying a word.
After eating, cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Cai Wei went to see the group of chicks again.
In the courtyard next door, the iron ox came out to chop wood, so he looked a few times in this direction.
Seeing that Cai Wei's yard was full of chickens, he was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly lowered his voice and asked, "You just bought it?" ”
Cai Wei nodded silently and smiled slightly.
The door of the Tie Niu Family Hall creaked open, and Li came out of the house with a wooden basin, apparently to wash clothes.
The two of them were busy looking away and doing their own thing.
When Li went to the river, Tie Niu put down his axe and ran to Cai Wei's house.
He looked at the cheerful chicks all over the yard, and was very happy, but he was a little worried about Cai Wei, "So much, how can you raise it?" ”
He couldn't understand why Cai Wei was so bold all of a sudden, even if there were many locusts on the mountain, it was also a manual job to drive chickens up the mountain every day.
Hey, it's a matter of how to deal with it.
Cai Wei didn't explain, anyway, she hadn't skimmed the eight characters yet, she said it was early, in case it didn't work out then, wouldn't it be a joke?
