Chapter 21: Old Hen Soup is the Best
Tang Lan and the others all looked at her in surprise.
The old lady sneered, grinning at her toothless mouth, and the laughter went out two miles.
provoked the surrounding people to look around.
"Little girl, who told you that eating a rooster will bring back milk?" The old lady laughed for a long time, and when she finally stopped, she asked tremblingly.
Tang Su thought for a while and replied cautiously: "It looks like it is in the book." ”
"It's written in the book, too?"
The old lady was surprisingly surprised.
Tang Su knew that the literacy rate of this dynasty was not very high, and in the eyes of ordinary people, the truth written in the book was equivalent to the truth.
In their consciousness, if it is written in the book that eating a rooster will return milk, then it will definitely return milk.
How could it be wrong in the book?
Although the old lady believed it, she couldn't help but complain in her heart that the book was not serious.
If you don't do learning, why do you want to write about women's confinement?
Milk back or something......
It's just a bad lesson for a little girl!
She took a pu fan, fanned the wind, and said with a smile on her face: "Girl, you don't understand the child's family, this woman is confined, and eating old hen soup is the most nutritious!" Come, my mother-in-law will catch forty little hens and give them to you, and bring them back to give birth. ”
"I just want thirty."
"Chicken babies are not so easy to feed, that's all, it's good to be able to raise half of them." The old lady didn't care what Tang Su said, she drove the little chicks with her hands, caught twenty pairs of them, and put them in the basket on Zhang San's back, fluffy and tender yellow, clean and cute. Xiaolan couldn't help but reach out to tease.
Tang Su thought about it, now the conditions are simple, the chicken baby is not easy to feed, and if the chicken is sick, there is nowhere to buy medicine. He acquiesced to the old lady's behavior, and counted forty copper plates out of the purse and gave it to her.
The old lady also gave her a little broken rice, which was mixed with millet and broken corn and fed to the chicks. After ten days and half a month, the chicks can eat vegetable leaves, and it will be easy to raise.
Tang Su happily accepted, and Li Si hurriedly took it and took it.
After buying the chickens, Tang Su thought that there was no food at home, so he went to the rice store, bought a small half bag of rice, flour, oil, salt and other things, and bought a few vegetable seeds.
Tang Su grabbed the silver in his hand, and when he walked to the door of Buzhuang, he thought about it and went in and pulled some cloth.
"Sister, do you want to make clothes?" Tang Lan asked.
"I didn't do it, it was for Aunt Cuihua, let her keep it for the child in her belly to make small clothes. Now there is nothing at home, and the child must not be born with a bare butt. Tang Su smiled and chose a piece of foundation white flowers and a piece of tender yellow material.
She knew that she needed to prepare a lot of things to give birth, but she didn't know what to prepare other than clothes. What's more, she is reluctant to spend the money in hand. Take your time with the rest, and buy what you lack after birth.
As the sun sets, the sky is crimson. A few people walked back, and the soft evening breeze came with a strong fragrance of osmanthus, blowing people who were smoky and comfortable.
Since coming to this time and space, Tang Su took a serious look at the surrounding scenery for the first time, the sun was shallow, the wind was gentle, if he didn't think about those debt tasks, it would be a good place.
When they got home, Zhang San and Li Si went into the yard and set up a fence around the locust tree in the Tang Su courtyard to raise chickens.
As soon as Tang Su entered the door, he saw Aunt Cuihua sitting under the porch, her hands on her huge belly, her hair tied up haphazardly, and her face was blue and white, a little puffy.
