225 Look at the eggs
Regarding the matter of Wang Shihu and Widow Sun, the two of them are really at a loss, and they want to tell Aunt Wang directly, but they are afraid that Aunt Wang will not be able to withstand the fright, after all, Aunt Wang is old, if there is any accident, they will really become sinners.
Moreover, what if Aunt Wang insists on beating the mandarin ducks?
With Wang Shihu's feelings for Widow Sun now, I am afraid that he will elope directly with Widow Sun, maybe Aunt Wang will be angry to death, after all, Wang Shihu is the only seedling in the family.
But if you don't do anything, I'm afraid that Wang Shihu and Widow Sun won't be able to wait, think about it, a man with strong blood and a woman who has been widowed for many years, no one can stop dry firewood when it encounters a fire.
What's more, in the past few days, Wang Shihu has been full of red face, who knows what they have done in private?
After chatting for a while, there was no solution, Niu Dali simply didn't want to think about it, anyway, the parties were like a nobody, what were they in a hurry for outsiders.
Early the next morning, because of Liu Xiaogu's words yesterday, many villagers in Xinghua Village determined that the stork bird tower came to Xinghua Village to collect chickens because it was Niu Dali, so some villagers who were grateful to Niu Dali came to send eggs and dried vegetables.
Because of Niu Dali's method of raising chickens, many villagers raised a lot of chickens and laid a lot of eggs.
But now after selling the chickens to the stork at a high price of 15 yuan, they are reluctant to sell the eggs, and they plan to keep them for the children and the elderly at home to replenish their bodies, and sometimes they can also give them away.
Niu Dali didn't expect that so many villagers would come to deliver eggs, but after pushing to no avail, they also accepted the villagers' things, and at the end of this day, they collected a lot of dried eggs and vegetables, as well as some pickled sauerkraut.
Er Ya has never seen three baskets of eggs when she is so big, but she is very happy with this little girl, but Li Xianglan is worried.
"Brother Dali, the eggs that our chickens lay every day are enough for our family to eat, and now the villagers are still sending so many eggs, can we finish eating?" Li Xianglan said.
Niu Dali also felt that these eggs were a bit much, even if they ate eggs for three meals a day, by that time, I am afraid that their family would have a phobia of eggs.
"Dad, mother, how many chicks can we hatch?" said the second girl with a very sweet smile.
"Not every egg hatches chicks. Li Xianglan touched her daughter's little head and said with a smile.
Er Ya tilted her little head, revealing a puzzled look.
The eldest girl also looked at Li Xianglan curiously.
Li Xianglan didn't know how to explain it, and the villagers would take it to Grandma Wang if they wanted to know if the eggs could hatch chicks, and let Grandma Wang pick out some eggs that could hatch chicks, which was also Grandma Wang's craft.
Of course, there is more than just Grandma Wang in the village, who can look at eggs.
At this point, Niu Dali faintly remembered, as if he wanted to look at the egg under the strong light and observe the yolk, that is, the yolk, but how to judge, he really didn't know.
"Then we'll take the eggs now and let Grandma Wang take a look. Erya said excitedly.
"What are you anxious about, your father and mother haven't agreed yet, so you have made up your mind. The eldest girl said in the tone of a big sister.
Erya playfully stuck out her tongue and looked at Niu Dali and Li Xianglan with pitiful eyes.
"Brother Dali, what do you think?" asked Li Xianglan.
Niu Dali knows Erya's ideals, it's not that he doesn't support it, but that there are not so many places to raise too many chickens at home.
Before, Erya planned to keep the eggs at home to hatch chicks, but he knew that those eggs could not hatch chicks, although he didn't know how to look at eggs, but how could he hatch chicks if he didn't raise roosters at home to breed, if the eggs at home could really hatch chicks, there was only one possibility.
Looking at Erya's pouting mouth and pitiful little appearance, Niu Dali's heart suddenly softened, and he agreed to come down, which made Erya so happy that he couldn't find the north.
Originally, I planned to go to see the eggs tomorrow, but under the urging of the little girl, Niu Dali had to carry the four baskets of eggs at home to the ox cart, and then went to Grandma Wang's house with Erya to let Grandma Wang look at the eggs.
Grandma Wang is not young, about sixty or seventy years old, her head is covered with silver threads, her face is full of wrinkles, but she smiles very kindly.
Nowadays, Grandma Wang no longer helps people look at eggs, not because of her age, but because she has already passed on the art of watching eggs to her two daughters-in-law.
Because there were a lot of eggs in the four baskets, Grandma Wang asked Niu Dali to come over tomorrow afternoon to get the eggs.
Niu Dali is not afraid that Grandma Wang's family will let him lay a few eggs, not to mention that he doesn't care about the three or four eggs, just say that Grandma Wang's family is also a well-behaved family in the village, otherwise there would not be so many villagers to let Grandma Wang's family see the eggs.
The next afternoon, Niu Dali and Er Ya came to Grandma Wang's house to pick up eggs, four baskets of eggs, only half a frame of eggs can hatch chicks, which made Niu Dali slightly relieved.
He was really afraid that half of the four baskets of eggs would hatch chicks, so he really didn't know what to do with it.
Do you know that there is a little chicken maniac next to him?
Even if the whole yard is used to raise chickens, it is not enough!
Grandma Wang asked her two sons to put four baskets of eggs on the ox cart.
Niu Dali took out twenty wen from his waist and handed it to Grandma Wang, and said, "Grandma Wang, I'm bothering your family, you can accept this money!"
"It doesn't take so much, just give ten wen!" Grandma Wang refused to speak, so she wanted to take out ten wen from the twenty wen and return it to Niu Dali.
"Yes, Dali, your chicken recipe has allowed our family to raise a lot of chickens, we thank you too late, how can we charge you more?" said Grandma Wang's eldest son.
"One sum at a time, you help me look at the eggs, and I should give you money. Niu Dali smiled honestly and pushed back the ten cents handed over by Grandma Wang, "Grandma Wang, you must accept this money, it is too much for me to honor you." ”
Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Grandma Wang sighed, "You, hey, you have a heart!"
"That's it, Grandma Wang, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first. After Niu Dali said this, he drove away in the ox cart.
Grandma Wang shook her head, "Dali, this kid is honest." ”
looked at the two daughters-in-law behind him again, and said, "You have seen the eggs all night, these twenty wen, you two have divided it!"
The two daughters-in-law looked happy.
Before returning home, the second girl jumped out of the ox cart and beckoned to the big girl in the yard, "Sister, come and help me carry the eggs!"
The eldest girl trotted over, looked at the half-basket of eggs, and said, "Little sister, can this basket of eggs hatch chicks?"
The second girl stared at the big and small eyes, "Sister, how do you know?"
