Chapter 179: Raising Quails
Han Mingxiu thought that when she came back, she would be able to clean up Han Mingyan's little immediately, expose her old bottom in front of the whole village, and make her embarrassed and lose face at her grandmother's house.
However, she never expected that she would be smashed into the hands of Xiaomeizi, a little girl, and she didn't even have a chance to go out, let alone take revenge!
Xiaomeizi has been avoiding milk these days, and the child's mood fluctuates a lot, crying non-stop, although she can't speak, but Han Mingxiu understands that she is looking for her mother.
Because Han Mingxiu looks a little like her eldest sister, the little girl can't find her mother, so she treats Han Mingxiu as a substitute, hugging her all day long and not letting go, even if she sleeps, she has to touch her to sleep, she wakes up when she moves slightly, and when she wakes up, she cries endlessly, making Han Mingxiu cry so much that her brain is about to explode, and she can't go anywhere.
There is no way, the child is still young, and the weather is hot, Han Mingxiu was afraid of crying her, so she had to temporarily dispel the anger in her heart and stay at home to coax her patiently.
Fortunately, her space is rich in materials, and when she can't coax her, she can take out some honey or orange juice or something to fool her, relieve her emotions, and comfort her young heart, otherwise if she doesn't have these things, she will have to make her cry and collapse!
The eldest aunt went back on the day she came back, but Sister Haixing didn't leave, she stayed here to accompany her, Han Mingxiu was entangled by Xiaomeizi, and every day Sister Haixing helped her cook, feed the pigs, feed the chickens and feed the ducks, otherwise if she was all pointing at her, she would definitely be tired and paralyzed!
Sister Haixing graduated from junior high school this year, and she won't continue to study next semester, her uncle and aunt are now trying to find a job for her, and want to ask her to go to the city as a temporary worker, but the job is too difficult to find, and the ordinary people who don't have to worry about anyone want to find a job, and the difficulty coefficient is really not ordinary.
However, everything is done by people, and the eldest aunt has already taken out all the family's savings in the activities, and the person who did the work for them has also promised that he can do it for her.
As for whether it can be done in the end, it is unknown, but those sensible hindsights.
At this moment, Wang Haixing was sitting on the kang of Han Mingxiu's house, holding a little quail cub that had just come out of the shell in her hand, chattering excitedly, "Xiu, look, these little quails are also out of the shell." β
Han Mingxiu looked at the wet little thing in her cousin's hand and clenched her fists happily, "Yay! Great, this batch has also been successfully hatched, since one is out of the shell, the others will be fast, haha... β
Wang Haixing was infected by her emotions, her eyes were also shining, and she said excitedly, "Yes, there are dozens of quails now, almost enough for a hundred, right?" β
"Well, almost." Han Myung-so replied conservatively.
In order to make her quail industry grow rapidly, she saves every egg of quail at home, and she is reluctant to eat any of them, all of which are used for hatching.
After a few months of accumulation, her quail population has risen sharply, reaching seventy or eighty, and if you add this nest of quails that have not yet hatched, it should reach a hundred.
Sister Haixing said 'oh', "It's a lot, can you afford to feed so many quails?" β
Han Mingxiu said, "Quails eat very little, chop some vegetables for them, and a handful of bud rice noodles is enough for them to eat." β
Wang Haixing put the little quail cub in her hand in the cardboard box, since it has been out of the shell, she can no longer cover it under the quilt with her brothers and sisters, otherwise she will definitely be killed, "It's okay to say in summer, how can you feed them so many vegetables in winter?" β
Han Mingxiu replied easily, "Didn't I plant the Chinese cabbage in two parts, and when the autumn comes, take back the cabbage, except for the pickled cabbage and the dried cabbage, and stock up the rest in the drying bar, which is enough for them to eat until the beginning of spring." β
"Oh, it's really a good way, and I will let my father and mother plant spring wheat next year, and after the harvest, I can plant another crop of cabbage, so that one land can produce two crops, how cost-effective!" Wang Haixing said thoughtfully.
Han Mingxiu said, "It's not a problem, the spring wheat and Chinese cabbage in my two points of land are worth much more than the bud rice and potatoes from the two points, and I don't know what everyone thinks, so they all recognize the buds and rice potatoes, and they don't consider the price difference, which really convinces their IQ." β
"That's it!"
Wang Haixing agreed and said, "What age is it, and they still stick to the old method of farming left by their ancestors, they don't know how to be flexible at all, no wonder the family is so poor, you wait for the next year, I will designate to learn from you, first plant spring wheat and then cabbage, and then I can also raise quails." β
Speaking of this, Wang Haixing licked her lips, only to feel that her saliva was about to be secreted, she was very envious of the old quails raised by the Xiu family, if her family also farmed like the Xiu family, wouldn't there be vegetables to raise quails? Listening to quail eggs, they are nutritious and delicious, and quail meat is also fragrant, if their family can also raise quails, won't she also have quail meat and quail eggs to eat?
How happy would that be?
Han Mingxiu said, "If your family raises quails, I am responsible for providing eggs, and you can take as many hatches as you want, you are welcome." β
Wang Haixing smiled, "Okay, but I won't take you for nothing, I'll pay you back when my quail grows up and lays eggs, otherwise if my brother knows that I'm cheap, you won't have to scold me." β
Han Mingxiu smiled and said, "How come? In fact, your brother still loves you very much, how can I scold you because of me? β
"You can pull it down!"
Wang Haixing rolled her eyes and said, "My sister is as important as your fiancΓ©e in his heart, just look at the clothes on your body and the leather sandals on your feet, he knows that he will mail you this and that, my sister is patched and patched, he doesn't know how to mail me a piece of cloth (jia) ......"
Han Mingxiu's clothes and the pair of leather sandals on her feet were mailed from the parcel that the eldest sister gave her, she was in a hurry to go home, so she didn't go to the post office to pick it up, and when she came back, she was entangled by Xiaomeizi and couldn't go out, so she had to ask Wang Haixing to help her get it, so Wang Haixing knew so thoroughly.
However, although Wang Haixing complained, she was not jealous, because she knew that no matter how deep the brother-sister friendship was, it could not compare to the deep feelings between husband and wife.
Han Mingxiu looked at Wang Haixing's clothes, but they were a little torn, so he said, "I still have a set of really good clothes, I think we are about the same size, why don't I take them to you first." β
In fact, her set of clothes was also the fabric that Huo Jianfeng mailed her, and Aunt Gao helped her make it, but Han Mingxiu didn't say it, otherwise Hai Xing would have thought about it if she knew that her brother had one piece of clothing and another piece of clothing on her left, but she didn't mail one piece to her sister.
Haixing said, "Forget it, I don't go to work or go out, why do I wear such good clothes?" I'm blind, so I'll come and borrow your dress when I go to work or see someone... β
"Okay, if you want to wear it, squeak, don't be polite to me."
"Hey, I'm polite to you, you're my cousin and my sister-in-law, I can't be polite to anyone..."
The two of them were talking together, Xiaomeizi who was sleeping next to her woke up, and as soon as she woke up, she grinned and cried, Han Mingxiu saw that the little ancestor was awake, and she didn't care about talking to Sister Haixing, so she quickly picked up the little ancestor and went to pee......
After seven or eight days like this, Xiao Meizi's milk is completely quit, and she no longer cries and doesn't hold Han Mingxiu all day long.
Han Mingxiu breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he put the matter of finding someone to settle accounts on the agenda.
In the evening, she hugged Xiaomeizi out to chat with everyone, and by the way, she wanted to inquire about someone's situation.
As a result, when I went out, I found that most of the people chatting outside now are men, and those old ladies who love to talk and love to crat don't know where to go.
Han Mingxiu asked and found out that there was a literacy team in the village, and those old ladies who love to gossip on weekdays have become the targets of literacy and are receiving literacy education organized by the team.
And the one who taught them was the one she was looking for.
In the summer of this year, Han Mingyan graduated from junior high school, and Han Zhide and Hu Huifang originally planned to ask her to go home to participate in production and labor, but Han Mingyan disagreed, because she had her own ideas.
