Shen Yunxi shook his head with a commotion in his heart. "I didn't see it. I picked up the eggs as soon as I saw them. Didn't pay attention to the birds. ”

Tian Erniu thought for a while: "Mother, can a hen hatch eggs, can I hatch bird eggs?"

"Huh?" Shen Yunxi was dumbfounded. "Do you want to hatch eggs?"

Tian Erniu nodded: "I want to try." What if it hatches? We can keep birds. I'm going to catch insects for it to eat. When it grows up, it lays eggs. After that, we will have a steady stream of eggs to eat. It's like farming. We don't need to go to the mountains and forests to look for them. ”

Shen Yunxi looked at Tian Erniu's precocious eyes and gave a thumbs up. "Erniu, you have a great idea. You can lay as many eggs as you want in the basket. ”

Zheng Guizhen snickered on the side: "Fourth brother and sister, don't mess around with the child." How can a man hatch an egg?"

Tian Erniu asked, "Won't it?"

Shen Yunxi thought for a while and replied, "You will know if you try, there are successes and failures." Whatever the outcome, you enjoy the process, don't you?"

There is no shortage of food at home, so Shen Yunxi encourages children to use their brains in life, instead of blindly suppressing or denying their interests.

Zheng Guizhen saw that the fourth brother and sister said this, so she stopped talking. After all, Tian Erniu is the stepson of the fourth sibling and has the right to educate his children.

"Okay, let me try." Tian Erniu smiled, very happy.

He wouldn't dare try to hatch eggs if his mother wouldn't allow it, but now he could.

Shen Yunxi supported Tian Erniu's request and completed it. She didn't have time to continue to pay attention and let Tian Erniu play by herself.

Tian Erniu specially asked Grandma Tian how to hatch chicks and how long it takes to hatch chicks. He didn't have chickens, so he prepared soft grass nests for quail eggs, covered them with his own clothes, and carefully turned them over every day.

Keep it in the kitchen pyre during the day and take it back to the cave at night and keep it by yourself.

People felt that Tian Erniu could not succeed, but they did not stop him.

Shen Yunxi carried the basket on his back and took Zheng Guizhen to his sweet potato field to pick up the excess sweet potato seedlings.

The basket was not only filled with sweet potato seedlings, but there were also several bundles of sweet potato seedlings on the ground.

At this time, Zheng Guizhen saw a chubby rabbit eating sweet potato seedlings. She quickly pulled out her small bow and arrow, aimed at the rabbit, and shot at it.

The rabbit heard the sound and was shot dead just as he tried to escape.

"Fourth brother and sister, I beat a rabbit, and it's still a big rabbit." Zheng Guizhen shouted excitedly, looking at the four brothers and sisters who were working nearby.

Shen Yunxi turned around, put down the sweet potato seedlings in his hand, and said happily: "Sister-in-law, you are so powerful, such a big rabbit." You see, our sweet potato seedlings have been gnawed quite a bit by rabbits. Looks like we're going to have to make a clip to catch the rabbit. ”

Zheng Guizhen nodded: "Okay, I can make it with bamboo." I'll do it when I go back tonight, this rabbit has eaten all the leaves of this plant. If you have a few more rabbits, you can eat all the sweet potato leaves. ”

Shen Yunxi looked at the tender sweet potato leaves and wanted to eat them for a long time. Just now, she was thinking of some excuse to convince her sister-in-law that sweet potato leaves were also edible.

This rabbit is a good excuse.

Shen Yunxi smiled happily and took the rabbit. "Sister-in-law, look at these thick, juicy and fresh sweet potato leaves. Rabbits can eat it, and so can we. Why don't we go home and try it?"

Knowing what animals can eat, people can eat, is very profound.

Zheng Guizhen nodded: "What does that taste like?" At best, it is not tasty, but it will never eat a dead person. ”

The demands of those who have fled the famine are so low.
