Back home, Lu Fangfang focused on feeding her baby and began her postpartum confinement period.
The chickens and quails in the house suffered a great disaster.
Just a week later, Zhuang Mingcheng stewed three hens and five quails into soup.
This frightened the big white goose, Big Gray, and Little Gray. For the past few days, the three of them have been running to the river early in the morning and only daring to return after dark.
Once they got home, they were all incredibly prolific at laying eggs, which surprised Zhuang Mingcheng.
Lu Fangfang seemed to have figured something out, and she was both amused and exasperated.
She couldn't keep killing them, or all the livestock in the house would be gone. Seeing her husband grab another hen, she quickly told Xiuxiu to stop him.
There's only one child left in the family, we can't kill him.
After eating rich, meaty dishes for a week, she was getting tired of them.
To put it bluntly, she feels nauseous just smelling meat now.
Seeing this, Zhuang Mingcheng listened to his wife.
With the money and coupons in hand, he went to the county again and bought two pig trotters.
Lu Fangfang really couldn't drink anymore, so she let Xiuxiu drink it instead.
Seeing that her husband still had to take care of her during her postpartum period, she was afraid and quickly persuaded him to go back to his unit to work.
This is a critical time, and I can't let myself delay his role as acting head of the group.
Three weeks passed in the blink of an eye, and seeing that the grasslands outside were all green, Lu Fangfang really couldn't stay any longer.
On a sunny day, she asked Xiuxiu to watch the two children while she boiled some hot water and washed herself thoroughly.
For nearly a month, she was extremely annoyed.
After drying herself off and getting dressed, she picked up Egg and prepared to go for a walk outside.
She was bored to death after being cooped up for a month.
"Sis, put your hat on. My brother-in-law told me that if you insist on going out, you must keep warm."
Xiuxiu took a hat and quickly put it on her sister.
"Xiuxiu, is the grass outside really all green now?"
"Yes, the vegetables we planted in the field have sprouted. We'll be able to eat them in a few days."
Upon hearing this, Lu Fangfang became even more impatient. She picked up her son and strode out.
Xiuxiu hugged Qingqing and quickly followed behind her sister.
As Lu Fangfang stepped out of the courtyard, she looked up and noticed that even the birch trees in front of the gate had sprouted green leaves.
"Egg, all these birch trees were planted by your dad and his team. The birch sap inside is delicious."
"Ah ah..."
Egg tilted its head back, gazing at the scene with curiosity.
Lu Fangfang lowered her head and kissed her son, then carried him out of the family compound.
Once they reached the main road, she turned her head and looked at the wasteland on the riverbank, where she saw her sister-in-law busy working in the fields.
As she approached, she asked curiously, "Sister-in-law Manling, how are the vegetables you're growing in your field?"
"Sigh, it's newly reclaimed land, the soil is thin, only the rapeseed is decent, the rest are not so good, we need to apply more fertilizer."
Sun Manling clapped her hands and stood up.
She glanced at the child in Lu Fangfang's arms and said with a smile, "Is that Dandan? He's so fair-skinned."
Lu Fangfang held the child and nodded with a smile.
After chatting with Sister-in-law Manling for a bit, she went to check on her own land.
Her land is considered fertile, and she uses a lot of fertilizer, so the vegetables and crops in the field are growing quite well.
After a few days, I'll apply some of the ammonium bicarbonate fertilizer I have at home. This year's harvest should be better than last year's.
After walking around twice, she called Xiuxiu and went to the breeding farm.
Wang Shufen and Wang Meijun were busy inside the house.
When the two saw Lu Fangfang arrive with the child, they happily went over to play with the baby.
"Egg, look! Our farm is full of eggs too."
"Ah ah..."
Lu Fangfang was overjoyed.
She looked down and saw that the little egg in her arms was pouting.
Seeing this, she felt even happier.
After inspecting the farm and finding everything normal, she took the child and went into the yard.
Standing under the birch tree, she looked up at the birdhouse. "Little White? Big White? Are you two home?"
"Chirp chirp~"
"Chirp chirp~"
A bird call came from the birdhouse, but it wasn't Big White or Little White calling.
Lu Fangfang took a few steps back, squinted, and looked inside. She then noticed that there seemed to be a few baby birds inside.
"Huh? It's hatched?"
As she was muttering to herself, she saw two chubby little birds flying down from the sky.
The two chubby little birds had something in their beaks. One of them circled the farm twice before landing directly on Lu Fangfang's shoulder.
"Little White, how many babies did you hatch?"
Lu Fangfang was quite happy. She stretched out her finger and gently touched Xiaobai.
Xiao Bai glanced at Lu Fangfang, then looked at the egg in her arms.
"Chirp chirp~"
Big White stood on the birdhouse and called to Little White below.
Seeing that Xiaobai didn't react, it had no choice but to fly to Xiaobai, take the food from its mouth, and then fly back into the birdhouse to feed the chicks.
Little White, now without food in its mouth, started chirping.
"Ah ah..."
Beside her, Qingqing stretched out her little hands towards Xiaobai.
Seeing this, Lu Fangfang handed the egg to Xiuxiu and then hugged her daughter.
"Qingqing, this is Xiaobai, a little chubby bird."
"Xiaobai, this is my little daughter."
She took her daughter's little hand and gently touched Xiaobai.
Qingqing looked at it curiously.
Xiao Bai tilted its head and stared at Qingqing curiously.
"Chirp chirp~"
"Chirp chirp~"
Inside the birdhouse, Big White called out to Little White a few times, then flew away.
Little White glanced at Green Green again, then spread its wings and flew into the air to chase after Big White.
The two chubby little birds look very busy.
"How many eggs have you incubated? Why are you so busy?"
Lu Fangfang watched them fly away, feeling very regretful.
Her daughter is just like her; she really likes small animals, and she's thinking of letting Xiaobai and Qingqing get to know each other better.
"Girl, I went up and counted them the other day, and they hatched five little chubby chicks."
Five? That's quite a lot.
Hearing what Sister Shufen said, Lu Fangfang finally understood why the two of them were so busy.
My own children, Dandan and Qingqing, are well-behaved and easy to take care of.
Every night, she and Zhuang Mingcheng have to coax the two children to fall asleep.
Getting up in the middle of the night to feed the babies and change their diapers is a common occurrence. If there are five children, she and her husband will be busier than if they had two little chubby babies.
Thinking that the weasel family should be about to give birth, she called Xiuxiu and went to the southwest corner outside the farm's courtyard wall.
