Chapter 93: The Confused Flatterer (2/2)



In order to conduct an experiment, at the beginning of spring, Jiang Shuwei quietly took out the star sand that could nourish all things in the space.

She spread a little bit in the small vegetable garden in the yard and also spread a little bit on the hillside behind the house.

After observing for a period of time, she found that the vegetation around the courtyard where she lived was unusually lush.

Even the trees are denser and greener than elsewhere.

Adhering to the principle of not wasting resources, Jiang Shuwei volunteered to take on the task at the brigade headquarters.

She doesn't participate in farm work, but she has no problem raising poultry for the collective.

Since I have decided to settle down in Qinghe Brigade, I must do what I can to integrate into the collective.

After hearing her daughter-in-law's plan, Su Wanyu agreed with it wholeheartedly.

That’s why I bought chicks today.

Grandma Li is an expert at hatching poultry from the neighboring Dashi Village. The survival rate of poultry hatched from her home is particularly high.

The muddy road was muddy after the snow melted, otherwise they would have ridden their bikes.

Jiang Shuwei used a branch to poke off the thick mud on the soles of her shoes, and then pulled out leaves to wipe the sides of her shoes.

Only then did I feel relaxed all over. It was so awkward walking with mud on the soles of my shoes.

"Comrade, who are you looking for?"

Zhang Duoduo stepped forward immediately. "Hello, comrade. I'm the daughter of Zhang Zhongguo from the Qinghe Brigade. I agreed to come pick up the chicks today."

"Oh, it's Comrade Zhang. Come in quickly. Grandma is waiting for you." He stepped aside to make room and turned to shout into the house, "Grandma, the daughter of Captain Qinghe is here."

It turned out that the person who opened the door was Grandma Li's daughter-in-law.

Grandma Li was a slightly plump old lady with a friendly smile. She smiled broadly when she saw the two pretty little girls.

"Come in quickly. This road is not easy to walk on. The chicks are all here. Take a look and see how many you want. Do you want to choose by yourself or do you want me to help you?"

Jiang Shuwei's attention was immediately drawn to the group of tender yellow furry creatures in the big bamboo basket.

He looked at the chirping chicks with bright eyes, full of joy.

"Oh my god, this is so cute, isn't it? Grandma Li, can I touch it?"

"Okay, just be gentle."

Grandma Li saw that she had a pretty face, innocent eyes, and her voice became softer.

Zhang Duoduo scratched her head. "Grandma Li, please choose for us. We don't understand these things."

Grandma Li smiled and rolled up her sleeves as she asked, "Hey, let me help you choose. Tell me, how many chicks do you want? How many pairs?"

"Grandma Li, we want fifty, ten of them are male and the rest are female."

Grandma Li was about to take action, but stopped in surprise when she heard this.

"Zhang girl, are you right?" Keeping so many chicks at home will cause trouble.

Zhang Duoduo smiled and nodded. "Grandma Li, feel free to choose. These chicks are not raised at home, but for the collective."

Grandma Li breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. She was afraid that they would get into trouble and implicate her.

The old lady was very quick. She could tell the health status of the mother and the chicks by picking up their fur.

It won’t take long to pick out all fifty.

Jiang Shuwei was watching from the side with great admiration, giving thumbs up and praising continuously.

Finally, he asked, "Grandma Li, do you have any goslings? I heard goslings can be good guards for the house."

Before Grandma Li could speak, the daughter-in-law who had just opened the door for them spoke proudly:

"Of course, the goslings my mother-in-law has are of the best quality."

When Jiang Shuwei heard this, she immediately stood up, praised him happily, and expressed her wish sincerely.

Grandma Li smiled brightly at the compliment and happily gave out the few goslings she had left, one by one.

"Grandma Li, you are so kind. Thank you."

The old lady was lost in the praises and only came back to her senses after Jiang Shuwei and Zhang Duoduo left.

There's no point feeling sad now, the person is gone.

She couldn't help laughing when she thought about how she had picked out the two best goslings to sell.
