Chapter 70 Trivia
Thinking about it, Liu Yinyin raised her lips, picked up a piece of meat and put it to his mouth: "Come and try the braised spareribs I made. Is it delicious?"
Gu Cheng took a bite and said, "It smells delicious."
Apart from the meals prepared by regular chefs, Gu Cheng has never seen anyone who cooks better than his wife.
Liu Yinyin smiled sweetly and said, "Whether our family can eat meat regularly in the future depends on you."
Gu Cheng pinched her cheeks and couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
The next day was still sunny, with no sign of rain.
The temperature in the air is also a few degrees higher than yesterday.
Liu Yinyin sighed. If God doesn't rain, no one will benefit.
I will teach you as usual today.
In the afternoon, Jiang Cuihua came home again to help her take care of the children.
Liu Yinyin freed her hands and went to dig wild vegetables with the children in her last class in the afternoon.
As usual, after digging wild vegetables, Liu Yinyin did not forget to sow some seeds in the pit.
Her sowing of seeds during this period was not without effect, as wild vegetables on the nearby mountains grew one after another.
As there are so many wild vegetables at home, starting this month, Liu Yinyin only asked the children to hand in half a basket of wild vegetables.
Let them take the rest home and eat them themselves, feed them to chickens or pigs, or else dry them out in the sun and store them.
Anyway, country people are very frugal in their life, and they would never complain about throwing away too much even wild vegetables.
Before she had finished digging up the wild vegetables, Liu Yinyin heard a burst of noise coming from the side.
Looking up, I saw a group of children gathered together, chattering about something.
Fearing that they might start fighting, Liu Yinyin stood up and walked over, asking loudly, "What are you arguing about?"
"Teacher Yin Yin, I caught a rabbit." Liu Xudong said excitedly while holding a rabbit.
"Bullshit." Liu Zhigao argued, "Teacher Yinyin, Goudan is talking nonsense. It was obviously me who saw the rabbit first. The rabbit should be mine."
Liu Xudong is Goudan’s real name, but everyone is used to calling him by his nickname, and he himself is happy to be called that.
"We also helped catch rabbits, so we have a share," said another child.
"That's right..."
"You guys please be quiet for a moment." Liu Yinyin shouted. She still hadn't figured out what was going on and didn't know what these people were arguing about.
Seeing Liu Dazhuang among them, Liu Yinyin asked him, "Dazhuang, tell me, what happened just now?"
Liu Dazhuang narrated the whole story from beginning to end.
It turned out that when Liu Zhigao was digging wild vegetables, he suddenly had to pee urgently, so he found a bush to urinate. Unexpectedly, a rabbit jumped out of the bush.
Of course Liu Zhigao couldn't catch the rabbit by himself, so others came over to help.
Because there were so many people, the little rabbit couldn't escape in the end and was caught by Liu Xudong.
A group of children started arguing over who should own the rabbit.
"Teacher Yinyin, whoever you say the rabbit belongs to should own it!" Liu Dazhuang shouted to the group of children, "We should listen to you, teacher."
The others immediately stopped talking.
Liu Yinyin: “…”
She is not the king of the world, so there is no need to do this.
"What do you think we should do?" Liu Yinyin is still quite democratic.
"Teacher Yinyin." Liu Bing'er raised her hand and said, "How about we stew the rabbit and give each of us a few pieces of meat?"
Liu Yinyin has also discovered during this time that this girl is a foodie.
The key is that no one else had any objection to it. Who doesn’t want to eat rabbit meat?
Anyway, I don’t know who to give the rabbit to, so let’s just eat it together.
"What a great achievement!" Liu Yinyin laughed. "Eating a few pieces of meat is nothing. We need to set our goals higher."
"Teacher Yin Yin, I don't understand what you are saying." Liu Zhigao doesn't know what else to do with a rabbit besides eating it?
The rabbit was quite fat. Liu Yinyin picked it up and examined it. She was now very experienced in this area.
After a moment, Liu Yinyin nodded with satisfaction. She was lucky as it was a female rabbit.
After thinking for a while, Liu Yinyin said to them: "How about this, don't eat this rabbit for now, the teacher has a male rabbit at home, we can put it aside and raise it to see if it can give birth to a few more rabbits.
If it works, you can eat lots and lots of rabbits in the future."
Liu Yinyin understood this very well. If it were not for the fact that private trading was not allowed at this time, raising rabbits would actually be a good business.
Rabbits are easy to raise and give birth to large litters of puppies, so they have a very strong reproductive capacity.
The female rabbit in her family gave birth to a litter of six baby rabbits some time ago. There are now seventeen rabbits in her family.
Also, two little female rabbits seem to be pregnant again......
"Wow! Then let's raise rabbits." When everyone heard that they would be able to have many little rabbits in the future, they all opened their mouths in surprise.
Liu Xudong tilted his head and asked in confusion, "Teacher Yinyin, why can a male rabbit and a female rabbit give birth to baby rabbits when they are put together?"
Liu Yinyin: “…”
Why is the little brat asking so many questions for no reason!
After coughing twice, Liu Yinyin pretended to be calm and said, "This... is just like your parents getting married. After marriage, they will have children. It's just common sense. There's no need to delve into it."
The topic was quickly avoided and Liu Yinyin started discussing with them where the rabbits should be raised.
A group of children started arguing again about who should raise the rabbit. They all wanted to raise a rabbit.
Liu Yinyin suggested that they raise rabbits in the classroom.
Of course, it’s not the classroom where classes are held. The other classrooms are all empty. They are not used now anyway, so we will use them to raise rabbits for the time being.
The rabbits are kept in the classroom and taken care of by the children themselves. Two people take care of them for one day, which includes feeding the rabbits and cleaning. It is actually not difficult.
Children from poor families become responsible for their own families early, and they are already in their teens, so they have no problem doing this kind of work.
Even if there is something you don’t understand, you can learn quickly after being taught.
Everyone is very satisfied with this result.
After returning home, Liu Yinyin caught a male rabbit at home and moved a wooden cage to the classroom. It was better to keep the two rabbits in the cage as it was easier to clean.
Liu Yinyin returned home only after finishing her work. She was a little late today.
Gu Yanyan hadn't seen his familiar parents for the whole afternoon, so he lay in Jiang Cuihua's arms, his little face looking extremely aggrieved.
When he saw Liu Yinyin, he immediately stared at her with his round eyes, hummed twice, and wanted her to hug him.
The little guy doesn't even know how to reach out.
Liu Yinyin didn't hug him immediately, but went to the kitchen and brought out a small wooden basin.
He poured a pot of hot water into the pot, added some cold water, tested the water temperature, then brought Gu Yanyan over and took off his clothes.
The weather is getting hotter, and the little guy has to take a bath every day now.
There is no child who doesn't like playing with water. When Gu Yanyan saw the water, his expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book and his eyes lit up.
