Ning Jing bit her lower lip and said, "Let's give it a try. We'll only know if it works after we try."

Without hesitation, Ning Jing organized the steps required for artificially raising earthworms from her mind.

First, find a shady spot, then start composting.

Tie Dan went to dig for earthworms, while Ning Jing took Xiu Hua to the hillside to look for decaying leaves and the soil underneath.

After returning, he even made Siya secretly pick up the fresh dung that the old cow in the cowshed had defecated on the road.

Tie Dan was very excited. When everything was ready, he dug up almost dozens of earthworms.

He managed to get this from several dark and damp places with great difficulty.

"Sister-in-law, is this enough?"

He vigorously wiped his forehead, and three mud streaks immediately appeared on it.

If you add a vertical line, it looks just like the character "王" (king) on ​​a tiger's forehead.

That's all for now.

Ning Jing wasn't sure either, and she was afraid that saying more wouldn't be of any use.

She first sprinkled water on the leaves, rotten soil, and cow dung she had collected, then mixed them well before pouring in the earthworms that Tie Dan had dug up.

In no time, the earthworms burrowed into the soil and disappeared.

Ning Jing thought for a moment, then picked up some dry grass and covered it up.

When Fu Hongxing returned home, he saw Ning Jing with several children, squatting in a corner with their butts sticking out, not knowing what they were doing.

"What are you doing?"

Upon hearing Fu Hongxing's voice, Tiedan immediately stood up and skipped into Fu Hongxing's arms.

Without hesitation, she completely betrayed Ning Jing: "My sister-in-law is raising earthworms with us. Once the earthworms are big enough, we'll feed them to the chicks."

That way, the chicks can grow up plump and white, and then we can eat eggs every day.

As if the delicious food was right in front of him, Tie Dan couldn't help but swallow.

Fu Hongxing chuckled. What did a plump, white chick have to do with whether or not it lays eggs?

However, I felt a pang of sadness afterward.

Fu Hongxing picked up Tiedan and looked him in the eye, saying, "Don't worry, no matter whether the chick grows up to be plump and healthy, your big brother will still give you eggs to eat."

Ning Jing was initially a little embarrassed, but upon hearing Fu Hongxing's words, she couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat.

She tilted her head, suppressing the stinging in her eyes, before looking up and asking Fu Hongxing.

"How's it going over there today?"

After all, Xu Changjiu's appearance before made it seem like someone was about to die.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have acted like a madwoman, recklessly running to find Fu Hongxing.

She tries to find things to do all day to distract herself and not think too much.

The moment she saw Fu Hongxing, her uneasy heart finally calmed down.

However, she was also quite curious about the fact that all the men in the village went upstream.

"One person was injured, but fortunately we arrived in time and there were no major problems."

Fu Hongxing said it casually.

"Injured? Who is injured?"

"What about the river? Are they still diverting it?"

Ning Jing felt that if the upstream would so easily agree not to dam the river, it would have been impossible for them to do so without even giving a heads-up in the first place.

Therefore, Ning Jing found it hard to believe Fu Hongxing's simple explanation.

"He's from Dongxi Village, named Dou Fugui, and Liu Wangcai broke his head."

The man's head was harder than others; he had such a large hole smashed in it, blood was everywhere, it looked terrifying. After being taken to the clinic, bandaged up, and given an IV drip, he was perfectly fine again.
