Wen Qizhou found a hidden self-built villa next to the third ring elevated highway in Heyuan City.

The two-storey villa is surrounded by weeds, the iron gate in front of the courtyard is rusty, and a few cobwebs can be faintly glimpsed.

He pushed open the unlocked iron door, walked along the cobblestone path to the main entrance, picked the lock and entered the living room on the first floor.

The living room was covered with dust, debris fell crookedly on the floor, and an indescribable stench permeated the surroundings.

"It stinks." Chi Yue was so smoked that she frowned.

She pushed open two windows to diffuse the smell and walked along the place where the smell had come from to the kitchen.

The rats and cockroaches crawling all over the cooking table immediately broke into sight, and the dense black shadows wrapped the moldy tableware and spices, and she felt uncomfortable.

A cockroach fluttered its wings and flew at her, and she ducked sideways, retreating away from the kitchen so as not to be targeted again.

She endured the discomfort and walked to the staircase and asked Wen Qizhou, who went upstairs to check the situation: "Qizhou, is the upstairs dirty?" ”

"It's dirty, and there's a corpse."

"Forget it." She didn't know how long it would take to clean, so she was unhappy: "Let's change places." ”

Wen Qizhou is all dependent on her.

He walked out of his self-built house, drove Chi Yue around the viaduct, and finally drove into a high-end residential area with only five villas, and stopped in front of the villa next to the lake.

With a lake in front and trees and a pavilion behind it, it's hard to spot without looking closely.

There are no corpses indoors, and the number of rats and cockroaches is relatively small, which is much better than self-built houses on the whole.

They cleaned it briefly, then picked a bedroom to live in, removed the furniture inside and replaced it with the one commonly used in Yujingwan, adding a touch of warmth that belongs to each other.

"It looks much better on the eye now." Chi Yue sat on the familiar sofa and looked around with a smile on her eyebrows.

Wen Qizhou also felt the same way.

He glanced down at her swaying feet, worried that she would be cold, so he connected the battery to power a heater.

A warm breeze blows.

Warmth pervades the bedroom.

He changed into winter pajamas, hugged the lazy Chi Yue into his arms, and his eyes fell on the movable TV.

"What genre is this show?"

"Gong Dou."

The suspense drama that aired last time has been watched, and she doesn't want to watch the same genre anymore, so she switches to Gong Dou Scheming.

She pillowed in the crook of Wen Qizhou's arm, peeled off the shell of the concubine's smile with her white fingertips, took a bite of the flesh and fed it to his lips.

And so on and so forth.

Outside the window, the stars and the moon are shining, and the light reflected by the movable TV elongates the two figures reflected on the wall.

They live a peaceful and comfortable life, allowing the off-string arrow called time to flash by in front of their eyes.

*

Fast forward to the beginning of March.

Snow covered the fence in front of the courtyard, the trees behind the villa were frozen, and the pavilion was covered in snow.

They seldom go downstairs, going back and forth between the gym and the bedroom all day long, and other areas are invaded by air-conditioning.

Wen Qizhou, who had just finished exercising, picked up a towel to wipe the sweat from his neck, and glanced at the books on the table.

- "Efficient Pig Raising Technology"

He suddenly remembered something: "Yueyue, the pig in the space should be about to give birth." ”

Some time ago, when they were feeding the pigs, they found that one of them had a big belly, and according to the pregnancy performance described in the book, it was determined that it was pregnant with a piglet.

Although he didn't know how long he was pregnant, he recalled that it was in the first two days, and it was very close to the signs of labor.

"I'll see."

Chi Yue checked with consciousness and found that the pregnant pig was lying on the haystack and humming, and immediately pulled Wen Qizhou into the space.

She walked up to it and was stunned to see a slime-stained piglet emerge from its birth canal.

"What's the first step?" She racked her brains to recall the contents of the book, but it was the first time she saw the newborn piglet, and the more anxious she was, the more she couldn't remember the steps.

Wen Qizhou: "Wipe the mucus? ”

He didn't read much about raising pigs, but seeing that the piglets were covered with mucus, he should have cleaned them up first.

"That's right! Rub the mucus. With a hint, Chi Yue clearly remembered the steps and hurriedly brought the things he needed.

They put on gloves and Wen Qizhou held the piglets in both hands under her instructions, and she carefully wiped the mucus.

She stared at the umbilical cord: "Its umbilical cord should be torn by hand, and after I tear it, you can apply some iodophor to detoxify it." ”

The umbilical cord of the piglets is too fragile and may cause excessive bleeding if used with scissors. She tore the umbilical cord with both hands, pinched the umbilical cord that was oozing blood, pinched it until the bleeding stopped, and then handed it to him.

Wen Qizhou held the piglet's back with one hand, and dipped a cotton swab in iodine and applied it to the umbilicus: "Then what should I do?" ”

"You let it go first."

Chi Yue pointed to the incubator.

The incubator is made of wooden planks and has an insulated lamp on top, which can provide a slightly warmer environment even if it looks simple.

When he laid it down, a second piglet was born.

After one experience, they no longer panicked, and the division of labor was clear to wipe the mucus, break the umbilical cord, and disinfect it.

As time passed, the piglets in the litter grew from one to six, and they worked hard to wait for the sow to produce the afterbirth every 20 minutes, and then help it clean it.

Wen Qizhou separated an area separately so that other pigs would not disturb their rest: "What else do you want to do next?" ”

"Feed the antibiotics."

Chi Yue inhaled gyenomycin, which can prevent diarrhea, into the syringe, squatted down and fed it to six piglets with him in turn.

Then they are moved to the sow's belly to drink milk, and after drinking the milk, they are sent back to the incubator: "Okay, let's go out." ”

"Wait."

"What's wrong?"

"That sheep seems to be pregnant, too." Wen Qizhou took off his gloves and pointed to the sheep next door with an obvious belly.

Chi Yue: "......"

She had seen the video of the sheep giving birth, but she really didn't know the performance of the ewes during pregnancy, so she could only turn the book temporarily.

According to what was written in the book, they went up to check it and confirmed that she was pregnant.

But there is no way to tell how long it will take for it to give birth, so I can only observe it more while helping the piglets to drink milk.

After another four days, the piglets were able to drink milk on their own, and the ewes in the next pen were lying on the haystack and ready to give birth.

Ewes have two lambs in a litter.

They carefully cleaned the incubator used by the piglets, moved it to the ewe, and put the two lambs in it.

Chi Yue touched the ewe that rubbed her knees, and her voice was gentle: "Don't give birth in the future, we can't eat so much." ”

She and Wen Qizhou don't like to eat mutton, and they only cook two or three catties in winter all year round.

If it and other ewes give birth every year, and they can't keep up with the rate of eating, the number of sheep in the space will only increase.

It will also be a burden at that time.

Ewe: "...... Baa. ”

It no longer rubbed Chi Yue's knees, and moved to the side of the incubator, guarding its cubs.
