"Big sister, you can't brag like that to me, it wouldn't be good if you bluffed it off."
Aunt Zhang smiled and then glanced at Ning Jing.
"I heard from Guihua that your family wants quite a lot of chicks. Are you sure you want to raise them?"
Nowadays, people can hardly get enough to eat, so where would they get surplus food for animals?
Therefore, she was skeptical when Ning Jing asked for so many chicks.
However, Wang Guihua was someone she had watched grow up since she was a child, and she wasn't one to boast.
Furthermore, now that Guihua has brought people home, it seems that it's almost certainly true.
Even if it were true, she still asked one more question.
What if they change their mind at the last minute? You never know.
“Aunt Zhang, I have a lot of children. I’m thinking of raising the chicks for a while first, and then driving them up the mountain. No matter what, I’ll be able to find some insects to eat.”
Ning Jing smiled and replied that there was no problem with what she had said.
If raising chicks were really that easy, wouldn't everyone in the village raise them?
The key is that the chicks need to be fed when they are young. One or two is fine, but if you raise a lot, who has that much food to feed them?
Aunt Zhang glanced at Ning Jing, then nodded.
"Since you put it that way, fine. But let me make this clear from the start: if the chicks don't get proper care when they get back and they die, I won't be liable for compensation."
Ning Jing nodded: "As long as it's not a problem with the chick itself, I definitely won't come to you."
"Then come with me."
Aunt Zhang didn't waste any words, nodded directly, and then beckoned Ning Jing to come over with her.
Wang Guihua didn't go with them. When they entered Aunt Zhang's house, Ning Jing immediately noticed that there was something strange about one of the rooms.
Sure enough, Aunt Zhang walked straight to that room, opened the door, and Ning Jing discovered that there was a thick quilt hanging on the door.
A little while later, Aunt Zhang came out carrying a basket.
Before I even got close, I could hear a noisy chattering coming from inside the basket.
"There are fifteen chicks here, including two roosters and the rest are all hens."
Originally, it was thought that Ning Jing would definitely pick out a few from among them, but unexpectedly, Ning Jing directly took out the money, counted it, and then handed it over.
"Aunt Zhang, you count them."
Aunt Zhang took it, glanced at it briefly, and seeing that the amount was correct, she smiled and said, "No problem, you were introduced by my niece Guihua, how could I not trust you!"
You bought quite a lot, so I'm just giving you a heads-up.
These chicks have just hatched. Remember to soak millet in water, then add two drops of vegetable oil, stir well, and feed them. I guarantee they'll all be lively and energetic.
Then you absolutely must keep warm, but in this weather, even if you wanted to be cold, it wouldn't be possible.
Ning Jing hadn't expected the chicks to be so difficult to care for: "Does it have to be millet?"
"Just like people, chicks can grow strong if they get enough nutrition when they are young."
They'll have the strength to lay eggs, unlike those that are poorly fed and barely grow up; their eggs will be about the size of bird eggs.
Aunt Zhang sighed and replied earnestly.
Hearing Aunt Zhang say that, Ning Jing nodded.
"I understand, thank you so much, Aunt Zhang!"
"No need to thank me. If there are any problems, just have Guihua come over and tell me."
Aunt Zhang waved generously and said.
Because both the buyer and seller were straightforward, it didn't take long.
Ning Jing came out carrying the basket of chicks and went to find Sister Guihua.
