Chapter 310 Uncle, Kill All the Pigs
Jingnai's heart skipped a beat, and the joy of coming here was instantly diluted by half. Jingshu raised her eyebrows, but didn't say anything else.
Originally they wanted to share all the things they brought with their aunt, but they ended up leaving empty-handed and hurried to see what was going on. They didn't have time to move things from the RV.
Compared to Jingnai's nervousness, Jingshu can be said to be more relaxed. She even has the mood to look at the changes in her aunt's house. During the New Year, some black marks can still be seen because it was burned. However, the land where her aunt's family originally planted apples was covered with a row of simple wooden houses.
Jingshu could see the black pigs in the wooden house from a distance, but... they didn't look very well.
These black pigs were bred by Jingshu for the sows in her aunt's family. In just two years, dozens of them were bred. In addition, there was sufficient food at the beginning of this year, so her aunt's family bred more than 20 piglets.
After more than seven months, these pigs have basically grown to maturity.
"We still have to kill them." Jingshu sighed. When she has time, she will persuade her aunt to kill all the pigs and keep two breeding pigs. In the future, she can rely solely on selling piglets. Raising pigs is no longer feasible.
Because we will enter an era where food will become increasingly difficult to obtain, with no maggots or red nematodes to eat, and this will continue until mutant species appear.
Only Jingshu's sister-in-law Qiao Lian and Qiao Lian's mother were in the house. Everyone else from Qiao Lian's family had gone home, except for her eldest aunt and her son Wei Zheng. What surprised Jingshu a little was that her second aunt Jing Zhao was also there, holding a basin of hot water and wiping Qiao Lian's sweat with a towel.
"Jingpan, Mom, Dad, Jingshu and the others are here, please say hello." As soon as my uncle came in, he said to my aunt who was looking intently at the doctor. Everyone's eyes turned to him. After all, the light in the room was dim and with the flashlight, it was difficult to tell who was who without looking carefully.
"Don't worry about me. What did the doctor say?" Grandma Jing walked over and grabbed her eldest daughter's hand. Why did she see Jing Pan had lost weight again? Was it because she was too tired to take care of her daughter-in-law?
"Mom, Dad, Jingshu, You'ai, you are all here. Please sit down first. Let Jingzhao pour you some sweet water to warm your bodies." Jingpan's face showed a trace of haggardness.
Grandma Jing looked at her second daughter and frowned, "Why are you here too? Are you here to eat and drink for free again?"
Second Aunt had indeed lost a lot of weight. If she was obese before, she was now slightly plump. She chuckled and said, "Mom, I'm here to help Big Sister take care of Qiao Lian every day. Please pay me for it. I take good care of Qiao Lian."
The male doctor examining her frowned and shook his head. "You've taken too good of a care. It's already past your due date, and she's still not responding. Plus, she's eating too much, which could cause the baby to be large. I'm not even talking about whether the fetal position is right. We don't have any equipment to check right now. If there's no response in three days, use your connections to get some oxytocin. Otherwise, without medical equipment and unable to deliver the baby, you'll likely have a dystocia, which could mean two deaths."
Qiao Lian was so scared that she covered her mouth and tears fell down uncontrollably.
From this perspective, Qiao Lian has indeed gained a lot of weight, now 180 pounds.
Grandma Jing glared at her second and eldest aunts. "You've fed her so much fat, and now she can't have children. Have you all never been mothers? Don't you know this common sense?"
Second Auntie was immediately displeased when she heard this. "Mom, I've been doing my best to take care of Qiao Lian. We ate this way when we gave birth. We were afraid we wouldn't have enough to eat. Besides, I had a caesarean section so I didn't know how much to eat. Now it's good enough to have something to eat. Besides, Qiao Lian wants to eat this and that every day. My brother-in-law has given the order, so we give her whatever she wants."
The eldest aunt bit her lip and said, "It's all my fault. I've been busy with things on both sides recently, so I left Qiao Lian to Jing Zhao's care. I think she's doing a good job of taking care of her."
Grandma Jing glared at Qiaolian's mother again, "You are Qiaolian's biological mother, why don't you do anything about it?"
Qiao Lian's mother hid in a corner and said innocently, "My mother-in-law said that the hospital now provides free delivery. I thought it was just like before the end of the world, so I let Qiao Lian eat as much as she wanted..."
The eldest aunt was speechless and said: "I said so, but I also said later that many of the equipment in the hospital cannot be used, and there are no medicines. Providing free delivery means that there is no medical level. If you can give birth, give birth. If you can't give birth, give birth.
There is no other way, so I found an experienced doctor again."
Qiao Lian's mother whispered, "Then I don't care. You guys promised me that I could have a baby smoothly. Now I can't do anything about it."
Seeing the two sides arguing, the doctor was a little embarrassed. "Don't be so pessimistic. Pregnant women should keep moving around every day. If you have any reaction, send them to the temporary base of the county hospital to see me."
After the doctor left, the atmosphere in the family became a little cold. Qiao Lian cried and said she wanted to get up and walk around. It was hard to imagine that a woman who was quite thin before could become so dark and plump in less than a year. If her appearance was 6 points before, now it was only 1 point. The light of maternal love enveloped her.
Watching Qiao Lian take a difficult step and then rest for a while, Jing Shu shook her head. Isn't this a far cry from Zhang Bingbing? Is this how women give birth?
In order to ease the atmosphere, Jingnai specifically brought up Zhang Bingbing's story, saying that as long as they followed the doctor's instructions, the baby would be born soon. She also said that Jingshu and Wu Youai had both delivered babies before, and they could work together to find a solution when the time comes. This warmed up the atmosphere a little.
Wei Zheng lowered his head, said nothing, and helped his wife walk.
However, my uncle started shaking his legs after a while, and seemed to be unable to stay any longer. Jingshu called my uncle out, and the two of them talked along the yard.
"Uncle, you've worked so hard during this period. You set up a factory and now you haven't received a penny of your investment."
"Jingshu, your uncle doesn't like what you're saying. I didn't understand your point before, but I do now. We're all people who take things one step at a time, but you're the only one who thinks three steps ahead. I understand the current market for red nematodes very well. Our livestock farm has worked so hard to develop hundreds of pigs and thousands of chickens, but now we're running out of feed. Tell me, is our chance to make a fortune still far away?"
When talking about this, my uncle became excited. "Come on, I'll take you to see our pigs and the red nematodes I raise myself. Hey, before, 100 kilograms of red nematodes were sold for virtual currency, but now 100 live worms are sold for one virtual currency. These red nematodes are worth tens of thousands of dollars."
Sure enough, there were dozens of black pigs raised in the shack we passed by, and a large pond with a pool of red nematodes churning inside.
"Jingshu, with these red nematodes, my uncle wants to expand his breeding."
"Uncle, please find time in a few days to kill all the pigs."
