Because Chen Yifei's back made her feel so safe, she wanted to be able to sleep like that forever.
If time could stand still at this moment, that would be perfect.
After several busy days dealing with feed, we've almost finished processing all the sprouted wheat. We've put it all to good use.
Wang Hu also had a good harvest, bringing two or three hundred piglets, both male and female.
The mother is specially raised so that she can give birth to piglets for the farm; otherwise, it would cost a lot of money to raise piglets every year.
Chen Yifei looked at the densely packed, squealing piglets.
They're quite active right now, pecking at the food with their mouths and occasionally competing with each other. If they're mild-mannered, they won't get any, and might even be driven to sleep in the latrine where excrement and urine are used.
So Chen Yifei found villagers who wanted to work to watch over the pigs regularly, providing them with food so that they could all grow up plump and healthy.
But they're too young and too active right now.
The most important problem is that even though I walk a lot, I don't gain much weight!
Chen Yifei looked at Wang Hu: "Hu Zi, did you invite that pig-picking craftsman from the next village?"
The term "pig-picker" refers to someone who picks the testicles of piglets.
Once I marry this thing, he'll be a complete eunuch, and then he'll have nothing else to do but grow up quickly.
Several pig catchers were hired to inspect the pigs for the first batch, and in the end, the one from the next village was chosen because he was the most reliable worker.
The eggs were also cut cleanly.
Wang Hu nodded: "Brother Fei, you don't care at all about the happy lives of these little pigs!"
"It's too cruel, it's terrifying!"
"If you think it's cruel, then try it yourself to see how much it hurts so you can truly understand," Chen Yifei said bluntly.
Everyone's been tired lately.
Wang Hu pouted: "How can that be? I'm going to be your brother-in-law in the future."
"Can you bear to see Sister Xue living such a unhappy life?"
As she spoke, the corners of her mouth turned up: "Sister Xue gave me a mugwort cake today. It was especially delicious, even better with the sauce. I've never had such a delicious mugwort cake before."
"Oh, your mom doesn't cook for you often, so you bring it for us to eat?" Chen Yifei was a little speechless.
Mugwort is not actually mugwort; it's a plant that grows specifically in winter and can be eaten almost until the second day of the second lunar month.
Sometimes this thing even has ice and frost on it, and it still survives perfectly well.
When making wormwood cakes, only the tenderest and best part of the tip is used. After picking them, each wormwood is carefully washed slowly to ensure that it is not covered with any dirt or impurities.
Then, mix it with flour that we grind ourselves at home, knead it into dough cakes, and bake them over a fire—they smell amazing! The outermost layer of golden-brown huba is the best part.
Crispy and fragrant.
However, the wormwood cakes were leftovers from the family's meals. My sister took a few, saying she was going to feed them to the pigs, but unexpectedly, she gave them to that kid Wang Hu.
Believe it or not, Chen Xue's attitude seems to have softened a bit now.
Chen Yifei didn't care; as long as his sister was happy, that was all that mattered.
If you don't like them, we'll just arrange male models for you from now on, take your pick. Muscular, cute, and whatever else you like, experience the pleasures of a rich woman.
Wang Hu was very excited: "Anyway, what Sister Xue gave me is different. Winter is very cold, but my heart is warm. This is the warmest winter I've ever had."
Because he was standing in the pigsty saying this, a pig nudged him, causing Wang Hu to slip.
(⊙o⊙)…
Chen Yifei pinched his nose and walked a little further away: "You'd better not let my sister see you today."
Chen Yifei watched the piglets grow up and now he was hoping that the first batch of piglets could be sold before the winter months, so that he could get a large sum of money from the meat processing plant.
Take it directly to your father-in-law's house; you'll have more confidence when you speak.
At the very least, we need to prove that Qingqing's choice was not wrong, right?
——
For the next period of time, He Runqing helped her eldest sister make and sell clothes. Once they were finished, she and her second sister would go to the square to sell them.
With her as a clothes hanger, these clothes sell very well.
In particular, many female factory workers wanted to buy the same clothes she was wearing.
Later, Chen Shuang and the others also learned to be smarter.
Let Qingqing wear whatever styles are left over, to ensure there's no inventory left.
In addition, all of these clothes were handmade by Chen Shuang herself, and her eyes were tired from staying up all night, so the quality of these clothes is also very good.
There's not much going on at the brigade lately, it's winter!
During the off-season for farming, many people are actually taking a break. So He Runqing felt very fulfilled as she studied and did these things at the same time.
Chen Yifei was very busy. When he got home, he would just eat and sleep. Sometimes he would fall asleep sitting in the courtyard.
He Runqing felt sorry for her, but there was nothing she could do.
All I can do is make him more warm clothes, brew him tea, boil water for him to wash his feet when we get home, and make sure he does the laundry and cooks!
This way, Chen Yifei only needs to worry about things outside, and there are no worries about things at home.
A month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Chen Yifei and Wang Hu were looking at the pigs all over the farm, feeling very satisfied.
The first batch of pigs, several hundred in total, are all quite fat now and ready to be sold.
There were cases of illness a few days ago. This year's harvest was not good, and we also encountered swine fever.
Fortunately, Chen Yifei had hired a veterinarian long ago. Veterinarians were not valued these days, since people couldn't afford to see a doctor, so who would take care of the livestock?
So when Chen Yifei first hired a veterinarian, everyone in the village thought it was a joke.
Now it's no longer a joke; everyone thinks he had foresight.
It's been raining for the past month, and the weather has been bad every day. The occasional sunshine only comes in the evening, or the rain stops again after a day of sunshine.
It was drizzling everywhere.
It was a distressing sight, but fortunately, with the strong insistence of the village party secretary and Chen Yifei's breeding farm, the problem of sprouting wheat in Yongquan Village was solved.
So Yongquan Village was very lucky, but other villages were not so lucky.
Chen Yifei was thinking about these things, and he was also a little worried about Qingqing. He wondered what he should bring for her tonight.
Recently, Qingqing hasn't had a good appetite. I don't know if it's because of winter. She felt a little nauseous after eating mugwort cakes. Chen Yifei was extremely worried!
My heart is always pounding. Qingqing keeps saying she's fine, but she's already lost a lot of weight.
Chen Yifei thought about all sorts of random things, but he was still able to compile a clear and detailed account of the situation of these piglets.
Meanwhile, the greenhouse is also ready. The first batch of mushrooms was planted half a month ago, and it will be ready in about a month and a half.
Sales will definitely be good then.
Just then, the village secretary and my father rushed over in a panic.
Chen Jianguo stared at him for a long time, then took a deep breath.
He asked, "Are you alright?"
"It's nothing, Dad. What could possibly happen to me?"
He was puzzled; had something happened?
