Yesterday evening, I saw that the temporary chicken coop built by my father Shen Mingan and my brothers was full of eggs.
"Why are there so many eggs?" Shen Qingli exclaimed.
"I don't know. I was also surprised when I passed by the chicken coop this morning." Shen Qingyang reached out and took out an egg from the chicken coop. "It's a real egg!"
"Isn't the laying season of our old hen coming to an end? How come she laid so many eggs in one night?" Shen Qingyu also took out two eggs from the chicken coop.
The size is the same as before, there is no visible difference.
Others also picked up an egg from the chicken coop and examined it carefully.
"Could it be a last gasp?" Shen Qingli looked at her father and mother in confusion.
"No!" Zhao Xiufen shook her head firmly.
Shen Qingli looked at the old hen striding proudly in the chicken coop and couldn't help but blurt out, "So, are we going to stew this chicken today or not?"
After hearing what Shen Qingli said, the old hen paused and then clucked for a while.
If Shen Qingli could understand chicken language, she would definitely boil water, remove the hair from the chicken's neck, and stew it without hesitation!
However, 98K on the side looked at the bald chicken with a sympathetic expression.
Then it turned around and started clamoring in Shen Qingli's mind to eat eggs, and it only wanted to eat the yolks, not the egg whites.
Just when the Shen family was enjoying picking eggs, footsteps were heard not far away.
98K's ears were sensitive and it reminded Shen Qingli directly in her mind.
"Someone is coming!" Shen Qingli shouted to the people picking up eggs.
Shen Mingan and Shen Qingyu quickly sat in the wheelchairs next to them.
Shen Qingxuan covered his eyes with gauze and held the guide stick tightly.
Shen Qingyang also picked up the crutch thrown aside.
Only Shen Qingli and Zhao Xiufen were still picking up eggs.
Everyone in the Shen family sighed in their hearts, wondering when these secretive days would end!
The people who came were educated youth from the educated youth site. They were close by and could hear the previous exclamations and the laughter from last night.
Although I couldn't hear what they were laughing at last night, their screams this morning were crystal clear.
"Is Aunt Xiufen at home? We are educated youth from the educated youth center next door." A gentle voice came from the door.
"I'm at home!" Zhao Xiufen agreed and got up to open the door.
The courtyard gate opened, and six educated youth, two men and four women, stood outside the gate, each holding two bunches of vegetables.
"Auntie, you have just been separated and haven't had time to plant vegetables. These are the vegetables we planted ourselves in the yard of the educated youth site." A gentle-looking female educated youth raised the vegetables in her hand and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Jiajia." Zhao Xiufen said gratefully.
"You're welcome, Auntie." The educated youth smiled gently. "You and Uncle often help us when you go to work. This is what we should do!"
"Afen, who is here?" Shen Mingan asked loudly in the yard.
"It's the educated youth comrades from the educated youth site next door who came to deliver vegetables to us." Zhao Xiufen responded to her husband while inviting the educated youth into the yard.
After the educated youth entered the yard, Zhao Xiufen was about to close the door, but she saw Zhang Cuihong, who was cleaning, and Aunt Wang, who lived next door to the old house, walking towards them.
"Third sister-in-law, don't close the door yet. I have something to talk to you about." Seeing Zhao Xiufen wanted to close the door, Zhang Cuihong hurriedly spoke out to stop her.
"Sister-in-law, Aunt Wang, what do you want from me?" Zhao Xiufen was puzzled. The family was divided and the relationship was severed. Why did her sister-in-law come to see her?
He even dragged Aunt Wang from next door along.
"Good news!" Zhang Cuihong said with a smile.
Aunt Wang also smiled and nodded, "It's indeed a good thing!"
"What good news?" Zhao Xiufen asked puzzledly.
"Third sister-in-law, you can't let us talk at the door, right?" Zhang Cuihong raised her eyebrows.
"My bad, my bad!" Zhao Xiufen made way for the two of them and invited them into the courtyard. "Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law Wang, please come in."
When Zhao Xiufen brought Zhang Cuihong and Aunt Wang into the yard, Shen Mingan, Shen Qingli and others were already chatting and laughing with the educated youth around the chicken coop.
Shen Ming'an and his wife, as well as the Shen Qingyu brothers, are all quite familiar with these educated youth.
Because Shen Ming'an and Zhao Xiufen were relatively kind, they were not prejudiced against these educated youth who were not good at work but were still asked to share the team's food, unlike other villagers.
Occasionally, when he was free, he would help the educated youth who worked slowly, so he became familiar with them after a few visits.
Gradually, Shen Qingyu, Shen Qingxuan and Shen Qingyang also became familiar with the educated youth.
Shen Qingli had only been back to Xiaorongshu Village for a short time, so she had not had much contact with the educated youth at the educated youth site?
But this did not prevent her from communicating with them happily.
They all came from big cities, and their culture, knowledge, etc. are not much different. It can be said that apart from their identity as educated youth, they are actually the same.
"Are these eggs really laid by this bald-haired chicken in one night?" One of the youngest female educated youth stared at the bald-haired chicken in amazement.
"Yes! I was really scared when I came out this morning." Shen Qingyang nodded.
"This is unscientific!" said the male educated youth wearing glasses as he pushed his glasses on his nose.
"Maybe it's because the environment here is good. The bald chicken is in a good mood and lays eggs all night long." Shen Qingli said jokingly.
"Maybe your luck has changed!" The gentle female educated youth named Jia Jia suddenly spoke up.
"Jia Jia, the idea of changing your luck is feudal superstition. Don't mention it again in the future, otherwise you will be reported by someone with ulterior motives." Another male educated youth who looked somewhat like Jia Jia said seriously.
