I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 628 Xiao Si’s mentality is about to collapse

Looking at Xiaosi's distressed look, he then looked at the squashed ducklings and the sealed windows of Baiyunxi. Because there were so few ducklings, they didn't put them in the duck shed at all, and kept them all in the main room.

 For this purpose, several large frames were specially prepared, a charcoal basin was placed in the house for heating, and quilts were put up to keep warm at night. Even so, for newly born ducklings, there are still heaps.

 In addition to being afraid of the cold, it is also a habit.

 Unless people stay awake and stare at them all the time, this kind of stampede is inevitable.

“The weather has been changeable these days, sometimes cold and sometimes hot. Especially at night, the temperature drops sharply, and the ducklings are crowded together. Those at the bottom will flatten if they are not careful.”

“Shuren, you pack up and go to the duck factory to help Xiao Si take care of the duck seedlings. You don’t have to do the work in the fields for now.”

In about a month, the ducklings will grow up. After that, as long as they are carefully fed and guarded against weasels stealing their cubs, they will be fine.

Just as the two were talking, they saw Li rushing to the yard like a wind, holding on to the garden and vomiting, which shocked the two of them.

"When it's time to plant the rice seedlings, you can ask a few more day laborers to help. When you go back to Xiaofangzhuang, ask their clan leader. If anyone is willing to be a long-term laborer, hire two or three. With long-term laborers, there will be no need to hire day laborers in the future. "

 After finding a solution to the problem, Xiao Si immediately became energetic again. He opened the bamboo basket, looked at the chicken drumsticks placed on the rice, picked it up and took a bite.

"Mom, one chicken only has two legs. Don't let me eat it every time. Save it for Yaya, or I and my second brother and sister-in-law can take turns eating it."

"Okay, I'll clean it up right away." Although Xu Shuren agreed, he still felt unsure.

Since the Xu brothers stayed, in order to avoid gossip in the village, Bai Yunxi asked them to call her Aunt Bai like Wenyou, so as to avoid making the villagers jealous and say unpleasant things behind her back, which would only cause trouble.

 After Xiao Si finished eating, Bai Yunxi carried the basket and went home. He happened to see Xu Shuren arranging firewood.

"Mom, I got up five or six times a night, but I still can't avoid it. I decided not to sleep tonight and kept staring at them. I don't believe it, will I get squashed?"

Hearing Bai Yunxi's instructions, Xu Shuren was stunned for a moment, and then scratched his head in embarrassment, "Aunt Bai, I can only do some menial work, but I'm afraid I can't raise ducklings."

Bai Yunxi looked at Ms. Li's posture, her brows moved, and her eyes fell on her belly. When she stopped vomiting, Bai Yunxi asked her second son to help her into the house.

Old hen soup and big bone soup are served in turn. When the chickens raised at home are finished, they go to the village to buy them. If not, they go to the town market.

“Okay, let’s eat first. When we get back, I’ll tell Shuren to come over and help you for a few days. When the duckling grows up, there won’t be any stampede accidents.”

Looking at Xu Shuren's troubled look, Bai Yunxi smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't know. Just follow Primary 4 and do whatever he asks you to do. In fact, it's not difficult."

Baiyunxi's comfort did not improve Xiaosi's mood. He lowered his head and stared at the dead ducklings. After a while, he raised his head.

"In the future, if you are busy at home, you will always have to hire long-term workers. Although the long-term workers are responsible for food, housing and wages, almost all the work in the fields is taken care of. The time you save can also be used to do other things. Short-term workers will save more money, but You have to look for it every time. The busy farming season is the time to rush to plant and harvest. If something goes wrong, the harvest of the whole season will be delayed."

"Yeah, why did I forget Shuren? If we take turns watching, it will be fine." After listening to my mother's suggestion, Xiaosi's eyes lit up after rubbing her eyes.

 Let him do anything, but I'm afraid he won't be able to do the fine work.

Bai Yunxi saw him immersed in cooking and chuckled.

 Baiyunxi: “…”

 Two hundred five. Two hundred and thirty-four. One hundred and forty-six. Seventy-five

 “vomit~, it’s okay, maybe I ate too much, vomited…”

"Well, just think about it. You have to adapt to everything. Instead of making yourself busy, plan in advance to be prepared."

Li held her hand on the wall and vomited until she was in the dark.

Hearing the second child’s resistance, Bai Yunxi twitched the corner of his mouth. This guy has the potential to be a good guy.

Hearing her mother's suggestion, Bai Anyan subconsciously calculated the salary, "Mom, long-term workers not only take care of food and housing, but also pay four guan for a year's wages. Isn't it too expensive?"

“Hurry up and ask Doctor Yang to come over and take a look.”

“Don’t be sad, you just started breeding, everything has a process, you just get used to it.”

"You, you should take a long-term view of things, don't just focus on the present. In the future, the family's fields will become more and more, and there will always be times when you can't finish them. Since you want to take care of the fields at home, you can't just work hard, you have to learn how to use people. .”

During the spring plowing time, Shuren has been busy in the fields with the second brother and his wife. It is okay to transfer people over for a few days.

Let’s not talk about whether the duck is flat or not. After a few days, the flat person will be Xiaosi.

"Daughter-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Bai Anyan ran over, looked at him with a worried look, and patted her on the back.

"Don't be too nervous, and don't work so hard. It's normal to have some losses in ducklings at the beginning. Experience is accumulated through practice. It will get better gradually. If you are really worried, just take turns with Shuren. In a few days, when he gets a little older, he'll be fine."

Although everyone worked very hard, everyone's little face was flushed. Even Uncle Guangchuan, who was guarding the gate, drank a bowl of bone soup every time.

“The other leg is reserved for Yaya. The food in our family is not bad, and no one will compete with you for this. Your sister-in-law put the chicken leg in there, and she saw that you have been working hard recently, so she left it to you.”

Hearing my mother's reminder, Bai Anyan's face turned red, "Mom, I understand. I will go to Xiaofangzhuang tomorrow and tell the royal family chief about the hiring of long-term workers, and ask him to help pay attention to it.

Since the beginning of spring, spring plowing, studying, and duck raising have all been very hard. She had long told Mrs. Du not to be fussy when it comes to eating, and she must keep up with her nutrition.

She can understand the second child's thoughts. He is used to living in poverty and is very frugal. Even if he is tired, he is reluctant to waste money.

 After Xu Shuren left, Baiyunxi handed over the responsibility to the second child.

The short worker is working in the busy time for a while, after walking away, and asking for it twice a year. Compared with long-term employment, you can save some money.

 In fact, Xiaosi has been very careful. Of the 500 ducklings, the loss of about 30 ducklings is already settled.

"Hey~, let's go right now." Bai Anyan agreed and ran out with a pale face.

Du Shi came over with a bowl of hot water, "Second brothers and sisters, drink some water and sip your mouth. Are you eating or catching a cold? They say that spring covers you and autumn freezes, so you need to pay more attention."
