"Fangfang, look! She's laid five or six eggs this morning."
Wang Shufen carried a small basket of quail eggs, her face beaming with joy.
"Sister Shufen, more and more eggs will be laid. Let's save some and send them to the troupe later."
Lu Fangfang was also very happy to see this.
More than twenty female quails laid eggs on the first day, which shows that they took good care of the quails.
Walking into the yard, she looked again at the baby quails in the brooder box.
"Chirp chirp~"
"Chirp chirp~"
Under the sun's rays, the little quails stretched out their feathers, each one looking very healthy.
"Once we raise this batch of quails to a larger size, they will be able to lay more than 300 quail eggs a day. If we incubate more of them, we will be close to our goal of laying 2,000 quail eggs a day."
Lu Fangfang murmured to herself, still remembering what Gao Dajiang had said back then.
As long as everyone in the group can eat a quail egg every day, I'll pay myself and Mingcheng the same salary.
“Mingcheng…”
"I don't know when he'll be back."
Lu Fangfang frowned and touched her stomach.
She's been wanting to do something big these past few days, and surprisingly, she hasn't had any morning sickness anymore, which is a good sign.
"Sister Shufen, how many months pregnant are you when you start to show? My belly doesn't seem to have changed much."
"It'll probably be the third or fourth month, girl. You're still a long way off. It won't get big until winter."
Wang Shufen stirred the quail feed and walked out with a smile.
While feeding the baby quail, she started talking about when she was pregnant with Daya and Tiedan.
Um……
Actually, apart from her belly getting bigger and her appetite getting better and she eating more, there's not much to say about her. She gave birth to Daya and Tiedan very smoothly, without even going to the hospital; she gave birth right there in her hometown.
Lu Fangfang sat in the courtyard, listening with immense envy.
Pregnancy is incredibly difficult for women, it takes a lot of effort. Someone as fortunate as Sister Shufen, who has such an easy pregnancy, is truly blessed.
I turned my head and saw Xiao Hua walking back and forth in the yard, her front paws slightly lame.
It raised its paw, licked it, and continued walking.
Lu Fangfang looked at him and shook her head helplessly. This little guy really never stops moving.
In the afternoon, Lan Ying's sister-in-law arrived at the breeding farm to prepare for the night shift.
Lu Fangfang and Wang Shufen took her to the shed and told her the good news that the quails were laying eggs.
"Did it lay an egg?"
"Yes, they laid more than twenty eggs today. Sister Lanying, please feed them again tonight so that the female quails can get more nutrition and continue laying eggs."
Zhao Lanying nodded excitedly.
The quails started laying eggs, which stabilized the farm's operations, allowing her to continue working there long-term. She couldn't be happier.
Lu Fangfang gave Lan Ying a few more instructions before preparing to go back.
Once outside, she didn't hug Xiaohua anymore; she just called out to it and left.
"Meow~"
Little Flower raised her front paws slightly and quickly followed her.
...
The next day.
Lu Fangfang continued sharpening her machete at the breeding farm.
By the afternoon, her husband still hadn't returned, so she decided not to wait any longer.
She absolutely had to go see the forest to the north; otherwise, she would feel really stifled, and it wouldn't be good for the child either.
"Xiaohua, come with me to the woods tomorrow morning. Let's go find a way to settle things together!"
"Meow~"
Little Flower hugged Lu Fangfang's leg and cried out happily.
"You little rascal, you're really strange. What's in that forest that makes you so curious?"
Lu Fangfang touched the little flower, feeling quite puzzled.
With her wood-chopping knife in hand, she chopped some corn cobs and fed them to the little wild donkey.
When she got home, she kneaded some dough and made a few pancakes, which she planned to take with her the next day.
After opening the cupboard and taking a look, Lu Fangfang sighed again.
In the past week or so, in order to supplement Xiaohua's nutrition, the dried meat and quail eggs that we had stored at home are now almost gone.
Fortunately, she still had the eggs that Lao Xu had given her. She took out two and planned to boil them to take with her tomorrow morning.
She was busy when she smelled the aroma of meat coming from next door.
She sniffed, somewhat surprised. Her neighbor had been eating meat every day for the past week or so; they must have really gotten rich.
...
next door.
"Mom, I'm hungry."
"Mom, I'm hungry too. When will the food be ready?"
"It'll be here soon, it'll be here soon!"
Yang Yufeng ignored the fact that the pot was already boiling and continued to stuff firewood under the stove.
She lifted the pot lid, took a palm-leaf fan, and deliberately fanned the pot towards the next room.
She sniffed hard, but couldn't smell any meat from next door, and a happy smile appeared on Yang Yufeng's face.
"Mom, you've cooked this half rabbit several times already. When can we eat it?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, you spendthrift, what do you know? We have to be frugal when we're living our lives."
...
The next day.
As dawn broke, Lu Fangfang was already fully armed.
Xiao Hua stood beside her, looking radiant and no longer the disheveled girl she had been.
It's just that the scar on its face is a bit of an eyesore.
"Little Flower!"
"Meow~"
"Set off!"
Lu Fangfang led it to the breeding farm.
"Hey girl, why are you here so early?"
Zhao Lanying had just gotten up and was a little surprised to see Lu Fangfang.
"I have to go on a long trip, so I have to leave early."
"I see."
Zhao Lanying didn't think much of it. She mixed the quail feed and went to the incubation room.
"Oh...ah..."
