I thought that a few people would not hesitate to say this.

I didn't expect Liu to have another problem: "Your chicken is as good as you say, why do you have to sell it in a hurry, don't lose money?" ”

She looked at it suspiciously: "Don't be a sick chicken, right?" I'm going to have chicken plague when I buy it back. ”

The man was a little anxious, and his tone was not good: "If you don't buy it, forget it!" ”

He got angry, his beard shook and shook, and his fierce look startled the three of them.

The woman put down the chicken food in her hand and grabbed him, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm angry with him." We weren't in a hurry to sell, in addition to cockfighting, there were dozens of laying hens at home. Who would have thought that something had happened to our hometown, and we were in a hurry to go back, so we all sold it. ”

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, there must be no sick chickens in our family, otherwise the dozens of them in front of us won't be able to sell. Besides, the sick chicken's spirit is not so good, is it? ”

She was much more justified when she spoke, and Liu and Mo Jingchun were comfortable to listen to, and they saw that their chicken shed was indeed quite large.

Liu and Mo Jingchun combined, four hens, Liu can take one back, so he agreed with what the man said.

The last rooster was sixty wen, and the four hens were two hundred wen in total.

A few people paid, and the woman gave them chicken coops to carry back.

After the business was closed, the atmosphere on both sides eased a little, and Liu asked by the way: "You want to go back to your hometown?" Where are the people from home? ”

The woman smiled and said, "He is from Youyang County, and I am from this town, so I will go back with him." ”

It's a family affair to ask again, and it's inconvenient.

Several people said goodbye to the small courtyard.

At the same price, he bought a better chicken, Mo Jingchun was still happy, and took the beautiful fighting in his hand and looked at it again and again.

"Chun'er, when you have time, you can go to the vegetable field to catch some insects, chickens love to eat."

Liu babbled and taught her some tips for raising chickens, and Mo Jingchun hummed hard and remembered it in his heart.

A few people went back to the stall to find Mo Tongming, and Mo Tongming was almost finished, and he set foot on the road back to Mojia Village before the hour.

I got home before lunch.

Gao had built a simple chicken shed out of thatch and collected branches, and locked the breeding chickens he had bought.

Maybe the chickens were more familiar with each other, and they didn't have to get used to it for too long, but after two days, when Mo Jingchun caught the vegetable worm and was about to feed the chickens, he saw the rooster jumping on each other's body while one of the hens was pecking.

The hens cooed a few times, and then, as if nothing had happened, they pecked at the insects on the ground separately.

Mo Jingchun told Gao about this, and prepared a warm and soft grass nest for the hens to lay eggs and hatch chicks.

After the grass nest was put in, she couldn't help but run to the chicken shed whenever she was free, and finally squatted three days later until two hens quietly laid eggs.

The next day, three more fresh, hot eggs lay quietly in the coop.

Mo Jingchun was very happy, and picked them up one by one into the grass nest, and then there was a hen nest on it, and then the chicks broke out of the shell in the next twenty years.

The hens lay eggs hard, so she went to the vegetable field every day to pick up some fat and big cabbage worms and feed them to the hens who laid eggs alone.

Sometimes the rooster wanted to come and grab food, but she drove it away.

When Mo Qinglin saw it, he said that she crossed the river and demolished the bridge.

In the days when the hens hatched their eggs, Gao was not idle, going to the field to drain the soil and loosen the soil.

At this time, Mo Jingchun suddenly understood what kind of scene it was to learn a few days ago, "Morningside is absurd, and the moon and lotus hoe return".

The sun rises and the sun sets, Mo Jingchun can still be lazy at the meal, Mo Qinglin and Gao are seeing that the meat on their bodies that has just been raised for a few days has lost weight again.

Even if they are so busy, there are still people who want to block them.

When Mo Jingchun was cleaning the chicken shed, he swept out a small piece of blackened tree stick from the corner, and he didn't know why it appeared here.

She didn't think much of it and swept it away.

Then on the second and third days, she found the same burned branch in different parts of the chicken shed.

Mo Jingchun felt very strange, so he took it and asked Gao, and Gao also felt inexplicable.

The two searched in the kitchen of the house, but they couldn't find out where the sticks came from.

Because it was blackened, I couldn't make out what it looked like at all, and I couldn't find out what the tree was.

Gao thought that the chickens had come back when they went out to forage for food.

When the chicks hatched, Liu came to their house to see the situation of the chicks, and she talked to Liu about this strange thing.

Liu Shi was shocked: "Can you have it now?" Show it to me! ”

Gao saw that she was serious, the chicken shed was originally cleaned by Mo Jingchun every morning, and it should have been thrown away, but she remembered that she had left a period in her house to find out what it was, and she didn't lose it later.

She took it out of the room and handed it to Liu, who put it under the tip of her nose and sniffed it, and changed her complexion: "Sister-in-law Mao, this person has such a vicious mind!" This is a branch of the willow tree, you may not have heard of it if you don't usually raise chickens, and the most taboo thing about raising chickens at home is to burn wicker. ”

"How?"

"This is a secret saying in the industry, the hen lays eggs and smokes willow branches, and a litter of chickens lives two chicks. This is to make the chickens under your hens not survive! ”

Gao's color changed suddenly when she heard this, and Liu quickly told her to think about who she had a bad relationship with recently, and that person could still enter their yard every day.

After Liu went back, Gao called Mo Jingchun and told her about it.

Her face was solemn: "Chun'er, you are the smartest, who do you think can do this?" ”

Whether this saying is true or not, those who can do such a private and vicious thing behind their backs must find out! It's too bad, it's terrible!

She thought about it for a long time but didn't come up with it, so she asked Mo Jingchun to ask.

Mo Jingchun hesitated: "We haven't had a holiday with anyone recently......"

She bit her lip and thought for a moment: "I have also seen it when feeding the chickens in the past few days, and it is usually not during the day, so I sleep at night, and the willow branches are in it when I clean it in the morning."

Grandma, that person must have snuck in at night when we were all asleep, why don't I pretend to sleep with my uncle tonight, and wait for that person to show up, and then we can see who it is. ”

When Gao heard this, he sighed: "You are careful, so I will listen to you." ”

It was night, and tonight, Gao's, Mo Jingchun, and Mo Qinglin turned off the lights early and lay down, but none of them could fall asleep, waiting for the thief with their eyes open.

Until the village couldn't hear any sound at all, the Gao family was a little dazed, and suddenly heard the sound of rustling in the courtyard outside.

The voice came from home, and Gao listened attentively for a long time, and with a very subtle "click", the movement disappeared again.

The courtyard of the Mo family was quiet again.

Mo Jingchun and Mo Qinglin each pulled under the window of their room, their eyes widened, and they couldn't believe what they were seeing.

The people they see are not people, they are ghosts.
