Yao Qiyue raises her children in a free-range manner, following their nature. She does not discipline them intentionally, nor does she beat or scold them like the original owner did.
If the children make mistakes, she will convince them with reason.
Even so, the three children in the family are most afraid of Yao Qiyue, which makes her less troubled and worried.
Yao Qiyue attributed this to the golden finger that enabled her to travel through time...
After Damao picked up a nest of wild duck eggs with chicks, he had no interest in continuing to dig wild vegetables.
Yao Qiuyue’s backpack was filled with a bunch of dandelions, enough for a dinner in the evening.
She was not greedy and asked Damao to go home.
As soon as he got home, Damao handed the wild duck eggs to Yao Qiyue.
Yao Qiyue felt a little helpless holding the backpack, and finally said with a sigh.
"Da Mao, ask Sister Wei Hong to come over and bring back the clothes we made for you. Ask her how to hatch chicks."
Yao Qiyue felt that hatching eggs was the same. The villagers usually hatched their own chicks, so they should be more clear about this.
She was ready to learn from Wei Hong.
Damao ran very fast, she couldn't wait to see the little duck.
Wei Hong arrived quickly. Along the way, she was sighing about how good Yao Qiuyue was, as she could pick up wild duck eggs with chicks just by going out.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Yao Qiyue busily wiping the dust off the wild duck eggs.
Wei Hong: “…”
"Do you have a furry bag at home?"
Yao Qiyue shook her head honestly: "No."
The fur pockets are made of feathers from chickens, ducks, and geese. The quilt cover is filled with the down of chickens, ducks, and geese, which is fluffy and thick.
Just like today's down jackets, they are warm and windproof.
But the fur pocket is more solid, and the fur inside is very thick.
The temperature in Yanjiang Village is over 30 degrees below zero in winter.
Even if every thatched house has a kang, it is still cold in the second half of the night.
The fur bag is very warm and can be placed under the body or covered as a blanket.
Wild duck eggs are hatched in feather bags because the temperature here is most similar to that of wild ducks.
It is beneficial for the survival of the little wild ducks.
Yao Qiyue didn't have this thing, so Wei Hong put down the clothes she had made and hurried home to get the woolen bag.
Yao Qiyue and Damao were waiting for Wei Hong at home eagerly.
When Wei Hong came back again, she was shocked to see a bunch of people in the room.
When Jiang Ye and He Bolin heard that Yao Qiyue was going to hatch wild ducks, they stopped studying and tacitly stayed in the house, staring at the wild duck eggs.
Xiaobao and Xiaowu sat in a row, staring at the wild duck eggs with curiosity.
Wei Hong took a step forward, but then stepped back in fright.
Yao Qiyue was afraid that Wei Hong would be scared away by so many people, so she quickly and enthusiastically grabbed Wei Hong's arm and said.
"Sister Wei Hong, now that you're here, we all want to see how you hatch wild ducks. We've never seen it before."
Wei Hong gritted her teeth and put down the wool bag in her hand, folded the bag into two buttons, and placed the wild duck eggs flat in the middle.
After placing the wild duck eggs, cover them with a wool bag and push them to the end of the kang.
"Just pay attention to the temperature inside. Don't let it exceed the temperature of your palm."
"It's okay to rub the duck eggs with your palms to make them move, which will help them break the shell."
As he spoke, Wei Hong picked up an egg and held it up to the sunlight.
Everyone poked their heads out from behind Wei Hong and looked carefully at what was inside the wild duck egg.
"Wow……"
“Wow!”
"The wild duck is in such an egg, it's amazing."
Xiaobao covered his mouth and let out a cry of surprise.
Yao Qiyue gently touched Xiaobao's head.
"Wild ducks are birds and are egg-laying animals."
"There are many amazing and interesting animals in nature. If you have time and are interested, I can tell you about them in detail."
Damao and Xiaowu couldn't help but envy Xiaobao.
Xiaobao clapped his hands happily and said, "Okay, okay!"
Everyone in the room was infected by Xiaobao's happiness and started laughing.
Wei Hong helped Yao Qiyue deal with the wild duck eggs and left. She also had to help Yao Qiyue make shoes.
Yao Qiyue didn't bother to be polite with Wei Hong. When she left, she packed a few pork floss buns she had made for her.
The things in her own cake shop have been kept for a long time, and now in this environment she can only take them out and eat them occasionally.
Fortunately, time stands still in the cake shop space given by Jinshu.
Otherwise, after traveling through time for so long, the small cakes inside would have gone bad long ago.
Wei Hong didn't want to take any more of Yao Qiyue's things, and Yao Qiyue didn't take much either, just two pieces in total.
After a while of arguing, Wei Hong was finally defeated and went home with two cakes.
After relaxing for a while, He Bolin and Jiang Ye went back to study.
Yao Qiyue felt tired when she saw Jiang Ye working so hard that he forgot to eat and sleep.
She had no way of stopping Jiang Ye from giving up his research and his desire to learn.
So she could only give her family more food subsidies.
In the evening she dug up some wild vegetables, and she also pickled one pound of the five pounds of meat she bought last time.
I took it out today to make dumplings.
Today I made dumplings with two kinds of fillings, one with cabbage and meat, and the other with leeks and eggs.
There were still a lot of eggs left in her cake shop, and Yao Qiyue often restocked it when she was in Beijing.
The lobby of her cake shop was filled with supplies, including firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, rice, flour and eggs.
Yao Qiyue felt that even if there was a disaster, the supplies she had would be enough for her family to survive for a year or two.
She would look for opportunities to add supplies to the rice jar and egg basket in her kitchen.
Even if Jiang Ye cooks often, he won't find any problems.
When Yao Qiuyue has nothing to do, she will buy eggs from the villagers.
The chicken farmers in the village are reluctant to eat the eggs. When they have enough, they sell them to the recycling station.
The price Yao Qiuyue paid for eggs was one cent higher than that at the recycling station, and she bought them for five cents each.
So everyone in the village is willing to sell eggs to Yao Qiuyue.
Yao Qiuyue collected as many eggs as she could, which resulted in a constant supply of eggs at home.
Jiang Ye didn't care about Yao Qiyue's affairs. The biggest pressure on him now was that he couldn't earn money to support his family. Fortunately, as a primary school teacher, he received some food subsidies and salary.
Yang Hua had to negotiate with county leaders for a long time before he was able to apply for these salaries.
Not much, only eight dollars a month.
Jiang Ye now feels that it is much better to send some money home than not sending any money at all.
Having a wife who can earn money is really stressful. Jiang Ye can only work hard to make himself better and then find ways to increase his bargaining chips so that the family can leave the countryside as soon as possible.
They can't stay in peace in a corner forever. Jiang Ye has a chasm in his heart, and his wife is talented.
They must play their role in this barren land and shine in this country.
Jiang Ye has his own ambitions in his heart and works hard for them.
Yao Qiyue was thinking about how to ensure that the whole family had good food and drink every day and kept themselves healthy.
