Zhang Hulan took Zhang Xinyue and others to see Doctor Yu to bandage Xiaohua's wound.
After returning, Zhang Xinyue rewarded Xiaohua and Xiaohui well and prepared a lot of meat for them in the evening.
At night, Zhang Hulan and the others all went to sleep.
Xiaohua suddenly flew out, then flew back a moment later. She threw something under her cage and flew out again.
Xiaohua was restless all night, flying out and back non-stop, bringing back something every time.
It didn't go into the cage to sleep until almost dawn.
The next day the children had to leave again, and the servants in the kitchen had to get up early to make breakfast.
Nanny Tao, Chuntao Zhuer and several other servants also got up early.
As soon as Zhu'er walked out of the house, she screamed in fright, "Ah..."
The scream woke up Zhang Hulan and the others.
Aunt Tao came over and asked, "Zhu'er, what are you yelling about?"
Zhuer pointed at a pile of things on the ground and her face turned pale with fear.
Aunt Tao was also startled, "Mom, why are there so many dead rats?"
Zhang Hulan, Zhang Xinyue and the others walked out of the room, and looked at the pile of dead mice and a few weasels on the ground in confusion.
Everyone was wondering why there were so many dead rats in the yard.
This is not a good thing. If you are superstitious, you will think that the house is unclean.
Shanzi said, "Auntie Lan, look at those mice, they all have wounds on their bodies, as if they were torn apart."
Shanzi looked up at Xiaohua's cage. Xiaohua was standing at the entrance of the cage, looking at Zhang Hulan and the others, and then cooed twice, as if asking for credit.
"Could it be that Xiaohua caught it?"
Xiaohua was injured yesterday and was laughed at by Xiaohui, so it wants to get back at him. Night is its hunting time.
Zhang Xinyue was angry, "Xiaohua, why did you bring all the dead mice home? Don't bring them back in the future. Just throw them outside, okay?"
Xiaohua blinked her big eyes, looking a little aggrieved because of being scolded by Zhang Xinyue.
Zhang Hulan wondered if this owl had become a spirit?
Zhang Hulan smiled and said to Xiaohua, "Don't bring it back in the future. We all know how powerful you are."
Xiaohua cooed twice, then went into the cage and lay down to sleep.
Zhang Hulan asked Aunt Tao to get someone to take the dead rats out and throw them away, and then urged Zhang Xinyue and the others, "Go wash up quickly. I'll send you off after dinner."
Zhang Xinyue and the others quickly went to wash up and eat, and then Zhang Hujun sent everyone away.
After Zhang Xinyue and the others left, Xiao Hui flew out again. It flew to the fish pond and saw an eagle or kite coming over, so it chased them away.
He went back to have lunch at noon, and then continued to guard the fish pond in the afternoon, just like he was going to work.
The dog became anxious as he watched Little Gray chasing the eagle. If this continued, would he be useless?
…
As soon as the divine beast left, Zhang Hulan continued to busy herself with hatching the chicks.
Zhang Hulan mainly entrusted the task of hatching the chicks to Li.
Zhang Hulan told Li that if you touch the warm kang with your hand, the temperature inside is about the same as your body temperature, or it can be a little higher.
But try not to make it too high, a little lower is okay.
If the temperature is too high, the chicks will hatch prematurely. Such chicks are unhealthy and difficult to raise.
If it is more stable and lower, it will hatch two days later.
Ten days later, when the Gao family father and son sent chicken and ducklings for the second time, they must have gone to a distant village to collect them.
The number of chicks, ducklings and breeding eggs delivered this time was about the same. There were more than a thousand breeding eggs in total, more than two hundred chicks and ducklings, and fewer geese.
When Gao Guangtian left this time, Zhang Hulan asked him to send some bran next time, and Gao Guangtian happily agreed.
This time, when putting the newly purchased breeding eggs into the kang, I used an oil lamp to check the condition of the first batch of breeding eggs.
Only chicken eggs are checked, duck and goose eggs will be checked later.
This time, when I looked inside the eggshell through the oil lamp, I found that the embryo inside had already taken shape and was still moving.
But this time, more than twenty bad guys who couldn't hatch chicks were picked out.
On the eighteenth day, Zhang Hulan asked Chuntao Zhuer to prepare hot water and put the first batch of eggs in the water.
When you put the egg in the water, you can see it moving in the water, and everyone is amazed.
If any eggs sink to the bottom of the water, they are bad and cannot be kept.
Zhang Hulan reminded Li, "Sister-in-law, you must pay attention to moisturizing these days. You must sprinkle water on the eggs twice a day, and don't sprinkle too much."
Zhang Hulan demonstrated to Li that all she needed to do was wet the eggshell a little bit.
On the twentieth day, Zhang Hulan checked the eggs one by one to see if any of them had started to peck at the shells.
Some eggs had small cracks on their surface, some had small holes, and the chicks' cries could be heard.
Xiang Chunhua exclaimed: "Wow, it really hatched..."
At this time, you can't cover the eggs directly with a quilt, you have to prop it up. Otherwise, the chicks can't move even after they hatch.
Zhang Hulan also reminded Li and Xiang Chunhua, "Sister-in-law, Chunhua, there should be a lot of chicks hatching tomorrow. You have to listen carefully to the movements inside."
"Okay, we'll keep an eye on it."
Zhang Xinyue and the others are coming back today. Time flies so fast.
As soon as Zhang Xinyue and Daochen Daoxu came back, they all ran into the room where the chicks were hatching. They all wanted to see the chicks hatching.
But they can't see it today and have to wait until tomorrow.
The next day, when Zhang Xinyue and her friends went to see, the chicks had already hatched.
The chicks were chirping in the warm bed.
Li and Xiang Chunhua caught the hatched chicks and fed them chopped vegetables.
