"Godmother, why do your family members want to share too?
Don’t they have hens to hatch eggs like ours?”
Hu Lin asked in childish words.
It is said that every family has its own troubles. Could it be that her mother's family is also a vampire?
"That's not the case, they think the survival rate of newborns hatched by my old hens is higher.
So every year before the New Year, she would carry food and a basket of eggs and ask my old hen to help hatch the eggs.
Come on, let’s go in.”
After explaining, the village chief's wife picked up a woven poultry cage placed next to the fence and went in first.
Li Aihua followed them in, but Hu Lin did not go in and watched from outside the fence.
Now that the weather is getting warmer, she wears cloth shoes.
There were piles of feces all over the place, and it was hard to go in without stepping on it.
The soles of the shoes are not thick to begin with. If you step on them, I don’t know how long I will feel the cold.
Looking at the village head's wife and Li Aihua running around among a group of light yellow and light brown newborn chickens and ducks, their feet seemed to be hit one after another.
Hu Lin frowned, with disgust in his eyes.
I was glad that I didn’t go in.
There were a large number of newborn chickens and ducks, and the two of them filled the poultry cages in a short time.
"I hatched more than twenty eggs this year and got twenty newborns. I'll give ten to you."
When Li Aihua heard what the village head's wife said, she stopped catching the chickens.
With a slightly red face, she thanked him, "Then I won't be polite. When I raise you, I'll invite you to my home as a guest."
"Then I'll wait."
The village chief's wife handed the poultry cage to Li Aihua and closed the fence.
Hu Lin saw the two men coming out and moved away from them.
Now both of them smelled strongly of shit.
After getting the things, Li Aihua exchanged awkward pleasantries with the village chief's wife for a while, and then the two of them went home to make lunch.
As soon as she got home, Li Aihua carefully placed the chickens and ducklings, which were less than a month old, into the poultry shed.
He then took some crushed corn and wheat bran from the cupboard and put them in the wooden trough, and finally fetched some clean water.
Hu Lin was not proficient in these things and did not want to help, so he just watched from the side.
After taking care of them, Li Aihua started cooking.
Hu Lin was lighting a fire in front of the stove.
The hand-pulled bellows made a creaking sound, and the fire in the stove gradually grew bigger.
Looking at the reddish yellow flames jumping around wildly in the stove.
Hu Lin threw in a piece of firewood.
She has been here for a year.
The weather is slowly getting warmer.
The animals that hibernated in the Daqing Mountains have all come out to move around, and the traps set by Hu Lin have yielded a good harvest.
It's almost the same as the game we ate during the winter.
But the vegetables can only be harvested in June.
Before that, we still have to eat wild vegetables.
However, after a few months without fresh vegetables, wild vegetables also taste delicious.
However, wild game can be eaten fresh, and Mr. Zheng next door felt much better after a winter of boredom.
During the time when heavy snow blocked the road, she thought it was too troublesome, so she gave Lao Zheng three marinated chickens at once and let him do it himself.
Being used to Li Aihua’s cooking, his own cooking was not satisfactory.
Seeing that I can eat something hot again, my heart is filled with joy.
The lean days are over.
It’s Children’s Day.
I haven't seen Yang Qing for several months, so he came to visit me during his half-day off.
This kid turned pale after a winter.
He is taller now, but still looks strong.
Big and strong.
"Why are you here? Why don't you go play with your follower?"
Hu Lin had just finished his nap and was about to go out when he saw Yang Qing coming over.
She glanced at the man carrying the cloth bag and led him into the house.
Pour him some warm boiled water.
Because of the current relationship between the two families, Hu Lin's attitude towards Yang Qing is not so resistant anymore.
But we are just treated as casual acquaintances.
"I haven't seen you for a long time.
And I heard from my mother before that you can’t go to school this year.
I just wanted to come see you.
I only had one day off two weeks ago, and my parents didn’t let me come and play with you.
Let me study my lessons at home before I can come and play with you.
That’s why I haven’t come to see you for so long.”
Yang Qing chattered on and on about his recent situation.
Then there was some indignation.
"Why didn't your grandparents let you go to school? Carrot Head is going to school this year!"
Yang Qing felt a little aggrieved as he spoke.
I have been looking forward to them playing together after Hu Lin starts school this year.
He had already discussed it with his parents.
As soon as Hu Lin started school, he no longer let his father send him to school.
I followed Hu Lin and went to school in the ox cart pulled by my grandfather.
In this way, they can spend a lot of time together every day.
But all this was just his fantasy.
None of them can be realized.
He felt as aggrieved as an unwanted puppy on the street.
"My family is too poor and I don't have money to study."
Hu Lin looked at Yang Qing with a pouting face and a look of grievance, and found a universal excuse.
Yang Qing was stunned, looking at a loss.
His understanding of the current world is still very vague.
He understood every word Hu Lin said.
But he couldn't understand the deeper meaning behind it.
"Then I'll give you all my money and you'll study with me."
Yang Qing’s idea is very simple, if there is no money, just give money.
"Where did you get the money?" Hu Lin became interested.
In this day and age, to have private money is a big shot!
