Chapter 195 Take the Rabbit Home to Raise
The five snowballs huddled together, and after being touched a few times by Baoya's little hands, they woke up one after another.
The little nose was twitching and moving back and forth, as if it was hungry and was looking for food everywhere.
"Brother Xiaojing, is there anything to eat?" Baoya asked, touching the little rabbit's wet nose with her little finger.
"There are tender vegetable leaves and hay." Jing Zhen said, and got up to get some vegetable leaves and hay.
Baoya took it from him and put a few tender leaves into the flowerpot. The five little rabbits then rushed over and scrambled to eat them.
Looking at the five snow-white balls huddled together, eating themselves to the fullest, Baoya pursed her lips and smiled: "From now on, I will take care of you."
Of course the little rabbit didn't understand what she said and continued to eat.
Yun Chenglu also came over and teased them by feeding them with hay, but unfortunately the little rabbits didn't like hay very much and ignored the handful of hay he handed over.
After feeding the little rabbit, it was getting dark and Baoya and Yun Chenglu wanted to go back.
Jingzhen carefully moved the large flowerpot containing the little rabbit back to the windowsill, and then sent the two of them back.
Baoya stared at the big flowerpot, looking back every few steps.
Jing Zhen was helpless: "Or, you can take it back and raise it."
Anyway, he is worried every day. After guarding against the lonely king, he also has to guard against Nan Xuan, that greedy old ghost.
Baoya was delighted: "Really? Is it okay?"
Jingzhen nodded.
Baoya looked at Yun Chenglu again: "Second brother, how about we take the little rabbit home and raise it?"
Yun Chenglu had no qualms and said, "Okay."
So Jingzhen found her a small basket, put hay and soft cloth in it, and put the five little rabbits in it.
Baoya stroked the soft fur on the little rabbit, and her eyes narrowed into slits with joy.
"Brother Xiaojing, you can come to our house often to see the little rabbit. Our new house is finished and it looks so grand."
Jingzhen replied, "Okay."
Baoya and Yun Chenglu took the little rabbit away. Nan Xuan still looked regretful: "Oh, my roasted suckling rabbit."
This made Baoya alert immediately, and she ran away with the basket.
Jingzhen rolled his eyes at him.
You are a grown-up, but you are still so frivolous!
He knew that Nan Xuan was not really greedy for the rabbit, he just wanted to play with Xiao Baoya, and his temper was too bad.
"If you continue like this, you will be punished sooner or later." Jing Zhen looked at him with a stern face.
"Tsk," Nan Xuan rolled his eyes in disdain, "Even if such a person exists, he probably hasn't been born yet."
Too lazy to argue with this guy, Jingzhen left him and went after Baoya, Yun Chenglu and the others.
When the two of them returned home with the little rabbit, Yunhua and Yunyue immediately surrounded them happily.
"Little rabbit! It's a little rabbit! Baoya, you actually brought back a little rabbit!" Yunyue picked one up and looked at it in her hand.
It was so tiny that it seemed like she could crush it to death with just a little force, so she didn't even dare to use any strength.
"Where do we keep them?" Yunhua asked.
"Well, it's so cold now. If we leave it outside on the corridor, it will freeze to death." Baoya thought for a moment and said, "How about we take turns raising it? Each of us can keep it in our own room for a few days. That would be the fairest."
"OK!"
Yunhua, Yunyue and Yun Chenglu all thought this was the best solution.
The order is from east to west, starting from Yunhua.
Yunhua happily took a basket of little rabbits to her room. Yunyue followed closely behind her and went back to her room. She even insisted on sleeping with her at night.
Yunhua was helpless.
When Zhao Zhilan knew that they had raised rabbits, she was very supportive and taught them some methods of raising rabbits.
"They are still small and afraid of the cold, so you can keep them in a basket first, but the hay needs to be changed frequently, as rabbit urine is very smelly."
"You can feed it some fresh vegetable leaves or something, but don't feed it water. If such a small rabbit gets diarrhea, it can easily die."
"When they grow a little bigger and the weather gets warmer, we can keep them in cages," said Zhao Zhilan.
"Grandma, we'll remember this!" the four children said in unison.
After having dinner in the evening and settling the little rabbit to bed, Baoya and the others went to bed early.
During this period, the family was busy with housewarming and moving, and Yun Sanlang and He Chunxiu took turns to look after the business in the shop. Fortunately, with the help of Lan Xiang and Cui Qiao, there was no delay.
Early the next morning, He Chunxiu and Yun Sanlang harnessed their carriages and prepared to go to town. Zhao Zhilan brought a small bag of rice and two taels of silver and stuffed them into He Chunxiu's hands.
"There's still a month until the New Year. It's time to send Chengfu some food and pocket money."
"Hey, just leave it to me, Mom," He Chunxiu said, "I'll send it to him later."
Baoya came out of the small hall in the main house and heard the conversation between the two. She suddenly missed her elder brother. The new house was built, but her elder brother had not come back to see it yet.
Thinking of this, she walked over and said, "Dad, Mom, I want to go to the shop with you today."
"Okay."
He Chunxiu smiled, and Yun Sanlang grabbed her under the arms with both hands and carried her onto the ox cart.
Now that there are two more helpers in the shop, Baoya's help is no longer needed. He Chunxiu just thinks that Baoya is bored of staying at home and wants to go out to town to play.
Yun Chenglu, Yun Hua and Yun Yue came out of the small hall one after another and gathered around when they heard Bao Ya's voice.
"Uncle San and Aunt San, we want to go too!"
"Then let's go together." Zhao Zhilan said from the side, "Sanlang and Chunxiu are busy with business, you two will be responsible for delivering food and money to big brother."
"Okay!" the four children said in unison.
So, the ox cart carrying two adults and four children set off in a grand manner.
After not seeing it for a few days, Nanjiao Street seems to be more lively. There is a constant stream of people queuing up for breakfast in the morning, and the line is very long.
Lan Xiang and Cui Qiao had already arrived and were standing at the door, comforting the guests while waiting for He Chunxiu, Yun Sanlang and others to arrive.
Yun Sanlang drove the ox cart to a big tree beside the road and tied it up. He Chunxiu jumped out of the cart and opened the door to welcome the guests.
"Sister Chunxiu, you are here." As soon as she saw He Chunxiu, Cuiqiao went to greet her.
"You two have been waiting for quite some time, haven't you?" He Chunxiu said a little embarrassedly. "I brought the children here today and also brought food for Chengfu, so I was delayed for a while."
"It's okay, it won't take long. Sister, you take a rest first, and we'll do it first." Lan Xiang said.
He Chunxiu did not refuse. She sat behind the counter to check the account book and asked Lanxiang and Cuiqiao to entertain the guests.
Baoya and her four other children also followed them into the store, wiping the tables and chairs and arranging the dishes. They were very skillful and made the customers smile.
Seeing this, Lan Xiang and Cui Qiao looked helpless and said jokingly, "Sister Chun Xiu, you brought these four along to steal our jobs, didn't you?"
He Chunxiu also smiled and called Baoya and the others: "Baoya, Huaya, Yueya, and Chenglu, aren't you going to deliver rations to Chengfu? Go and play with Big Brother. We don't need your help in the store."
Yun Chenglu shook his head: "Big Brother hasn't finished class yet at this time. We'll just be waiting there."
"Then let's go to the mill shed behind the store. It's already been built." He Chunxiu suggested.
"good!"
This was new, so all four children agreed to it.
