The two walked around the area, looking for where the other wild ducks had flown out, but the straw cage here was too deep so they didn't dare go too deep.
After a quick search, I gave up when I didn't find any wild duck nests.
Unexpectedly, just when she gave up the search, Yuan Sufeng waved a wooden stick and Jiang Yan found another nest of wild duck eggs.
This time there are ten duck eggs.
The two happily split the cake, each taking half.
After returning to the family compound and saying goodbye to Yuan Sufeng, Jiang Yan returned to her own courtyard.
I put the duck eggs in the basket and cut the fresh grass into small pieces, put them into the chickens' feeding trough, and added some clean water from the tank, and that would be enough for the chickens to eat today.
It was still a while before noon, so Jiang Yan cleaned the yard and the chicken coop. The chicken manure was still very smelly, so she had to clean the yard regularly to avoid any odor.
There are only four chickens at home, so cleaning is not difficult. Chicken manure is very good fertilizer. After cleaning, just bury it in the vegetable field next to it.
afternoon.
After a half-hour nap, Jiang Yan started today’s translation work.
Inside the window, the quiet girl lowered her head and looked at the manuscript on the red lacquered desk. The tip of the pen made a pleasant rustling sound as it scratched across the smooth paper.
Outside the window, the breeze rustled the leaves, and the occasional clear chirping of birds was heard, and the chickens in the fence were pecking at food leisurely.
The small courtyard is prosperous, peaceful and leisurely.
After working for two hours in a row, Jiang Yan stretched her body.
"Meow~"
A cat's meow was heard outside the window, and Heimi jumped in from the window, lay down on the empty space on the desk, rested his head on his legs and continued to sleep.
Reaching out to pet the cat, Jiang Yan looked out the window and smiled slightly.
Days like this are pretty good.
Without the various anxieties and unnecessary involution of later generations, you can live your life peacefully, step by step.
A breeze blew across Jiang Yan's face, feeling cool. She suddenly felt that the window was a little empty.
It would be nice if there was a tree in the yard. In autumn, I could sit in front of the window, listen to the gentle breeze, and hear the fallen leaves swirling down in the wind.
The scenery must be nice.
“I have to plant a tree later.”
Muttering to herself, Jiang Yan picked up the pen and continued translating the magazine at hand.
This magazine is dated very recently, from the last two months.
While translating, she also gained a preliminary understanding of industrial development around the world.
To sum it up in one sentence, the West is far ahead of China.
China is too poor.
It lags behind Western countries in all aspects of economy and technology.
Time passed quickly, Heimi woke up, but Jiang Yan was still concentrating on translating.
Heimi glanced at Jiang Yan with his beautiful big yellow-green heterochromatic eyes, then walked over and rubbed his head against her hand, with his big furry tail standing high, showing that he was in a good mood having just woken up.
Meow~
Hearing the soft sound, Jiang Yan stopped writing and reached out to touch the little black cat's head, "Are you hungry?"
After putting the manuscript away in the cabinet, she carried the cat to the kitchen, took out the meat that was cooling in the water tank, cut some and fed it to the little black cat.
Thinking that the kitten was injured, Jiang Yan knocked a duck egg she had picked up today into its bowl.
Cats in the countryside are not as picky about food as purebred cats. They will eat anything edible.
Seeing that the time was up, Jiang Yan washed her hands and prepared to cook dinner.
Originally, Lu Yunsheng ate three meals a day at home, but his group seemed to be very busy and he could not come back for lunch. He also did not want Jiang Yan to work so hard, so he decided to eat at home in the morning and evening and spend lunch at the group.
But Jiang Yan couldn't get up in the morning, so Lu Yunsheng made breakfast for her. The only time the couple had dinner together was at night.
So Jiang Yan moved her lunch to the evening, and made something she liked to eat at noon.
There was still a lot of lard left from last night, so Jiang Yan stir-fried some vegetables with lard, stir-fried pork with green peppers, and steamed two servings of white rice.
Thinking that I would get tickets for translation in the future, I didn’t save too much.
The body is the capital of revolution.
Without a good body, everything in the future is empty talk.
Moreover, Lu Yunsheng consumes a lot of energy, and his daily diet does not replenish his energy, so he consumes his own potential.
They both took pills for their physical condition, and if their diet didn't keep up, it might affect the final effect, so they both had to take good care of themselves.
After a while, the aroma of cooking spread out and everyone in the nearby households could smell it.
The houses of each group are together, with an open space in the middle, and the houses are arranged neatly around the open space.
However, there are not many family members accompanying the troops in the Second Regiment, and many courtyards are usually empty.
The two families to the left and right of Jiang Yan's family are military officers who have no family members accompanying them in the army. Given her lifestyle, she has never met the neighbors on both sides.
Not far away, Ye Fengjiao and Zhuang Cuizhu's families lived next to each other, and the two were chatting at the gate of the courtyard.
Smelling the aroma of meat, Ye Fengjiao was surprised, "Whose restaurant is this? It smells so good. How much meat must have been fried? It's too wasteful."
Zhuang Cuizhu glanced at the smoke rising from the roof of the courtyard across from the open space and said sourly, "Who else could it be? Miss Jiang Yan from the city. She eats meat every day. Even the landlord can't stand it."
Ye Fengjiao was a little envious. She also wanted to eat meat, but her ration was only a few pounds of meat throughout the year.
Ge Qianjin was in the army, so she couldn't get any meat tickets.
She rolled her eyes and walked towards Jiang Yan's courtyard.
Zhuang Cuizhu looked at him with disdain, but there was also some envy in her disdain, because the country bumpkin could eat meat again.
Ye Fengjiao ran to the gate of Jiang Yan's house and knocked on it. The gate opened directly. She hurried into the yard and shouted, "Sister-in-law Jiang Yan, what are you doing? It smells so good."
