Chapter 3849 The Egg Baby is About to Hatch

Le's dad is easygoing; even when scolded by his elders, he doesn't take it to heart and just happily goes about his work.

After scolding Yueqing, Village Chief Zhou didn't hold a grudge. He worked alongside the young man and, upon hearing the young man's regret about the small number of chickens and ducks, washed his hands and made a few phone calls.

His phone calls paid off; half an hour later, people from neighboring villages started bringing chickens and ducks.

Village Chief Zhou moved the scale, placed it at the entrance of Le's backyard, helped weigh the items, and received them.

Wu Shao carried only a handbag and a mobile phone, and simply paid the money.

Although mobile payments have long been widespread, middle-aged and elderly people in rural areas still prefer to use cash. Some elderly people only use basic mobile phones and do not have QR codes for receiving payments.

Ren Shaowu and Lan Sanhei Jiu are regulars at Jiudao, and they are all experienced. Each of them has 10,000 to 20,000 yuan in cash in their luggage.

Most of the villagers from neighboring villages who receive home delivery use mobile payment, while only a few accept cash.

Villagers from three villages brought chickens and ducks, and after receiving them, we received more than 90 chickens and more than 60 ducks.

Wu Shao was overjoyed. As soon as the little girl who was preparing seasonings in the kitchen of the South Building appeared, she pounced on her like a butterfly, hugged her tightly, and showered her with compliments and sweet words.

Le Yun went to the backyard and saw chickens and ducks lying around waiting to be slaughtered and already killed. She silently went to the storage room to get a basket, a small hoe, and a sickle, and went out to find plants.

Of course, she wasn't alone; a large wolfhound followed her closely like a little follower.

Wu felt a little guilty, but he didn't dare to make a fuss.

Resigned to his fate, little Le took his tools and wandered around the fields, picking the plants he needed. He stayed out for more than an hour, filling his basket with the plants before going home.

When she got home, all the chickens and ducks had been slaughtered, most of them were cleaned and ready to be gutted, and a few had only had their feathers removed with a feather-removing tube, with the remaining fine feathers still not cleaned up.

The broth for the braised pork has already boiled, but there are still half of the pork ingredients that haven't been processed yet.

Zhou Qiufeng and Zhou Man's grandmother were making lunch, while the others were busy in the backyard.

When Wu Shaoren and the handsome young man saw the little cutie return, they put aside their other work, washed the freshly picked plants, let them drain, and then went to eat.

Grandma Zhou Man, the village chief, also had lunch at Le's house. She cooked two simple home-style dishes, ate a quick meal, and then got back to work.

The little girl brought out a stone mortar and pestle, then mashed the drained plants one by one into a paste, and mixed it again with the two portions of seasoning she had prepared that morning, to marinate the chickens and ducks.

She prepared the plant juice, then strolled to the backyard with her hands behind her back. Seeing everyone, young and old, smiling broadly, she asked leisurely, "It's rare that none of you have mentioned buying sheep this time. I almost thought you would go and bring back one or two sheep."

Speaking of lamb, one naturally thinks of the uniquely flavored and endlessly delicious stone pot braised lamb, and people of all ages slurp and swallow.

Wu Shao sincerely asked, "Little beauty, can we buy a lamb? I want to eat lamb stewed in a stone pot."

"Heh," Yue Yun glanced at the fake pretty boy, "as expected, money talks, no money means accepting your fate."

"Yes, money can buy you anything. Little beauty, can I be a little more willful?" Wu Shao rubbed her hands together. Oh dear, she wanted to eat braised lamb in a stone pot!
If you come to Jiudao and don't get to eat freshly made stone pot braised lamb, it feels like something's missing. If stone pot braised lamb is also served when making medicinal cuisine, then it's perfect.

"What do you say?"

“I think it’s a good idea. Little cutie, you just need to prepare the marinade for me, and we’ll take care of the rest.” Wu Shao’s eyes sparkled.

Le Yun glanced at the group of men and women with eager eyes, then silently went back into the storage room to pick up her small basket and sickle, and went out to look for plants again.

"Long live the little cutie!"

Seeing the little girl carrying a basket out, Wu Shao excitedly shouted and ran to Aunt Le: "Auntie, quick, let's go buy sheep!"

If we wait any longer, and the little girl changes her mind, things will get really messed up.

"Okay." Lele was quite indulgent, and Zhou Qiufeng didn't act like a bad person by saying that there were enough ingredients. She put down her work, washed her hands, took the baskets and buckets, and went to drive the car.

Wu Shao grabbed his handbag and phone and set off.

Zhou Qiufeng carried the handsome young man Wu Shao through the village and across the streets, until they arrived at the sheep pen where sheep were raised.

Upon seeing the lady of the Le family in Meicun, the sheep farm manager's face was beaming with joy. He quickly led the people to see the sheep, and once the customers had chosen their targets, he helped them catch them and tie their feet.

The sheep farm owner slaughters, skins, and guts the sheep for free, then hands it over to the customer to take home and process themselves.

After buying the sheep, Zhou Qiufeng drove the handsome young man back to the village.

When Ren Shao and Lan Sanhei Jiu saw that Wu Shao had returned, they gave her thirty-two thumbs up.

To be honest, they were a little hesitant to offer any suggestions, but since she was a girl, she was often very close to the little girl and often acted on impulse, so it wasn't surprising that she came up with any ideas.

It's clear that the little girl spoils Wu Shao a lot; as long as Wu Shao doesn't go too far, the little girl lets her do whatever she wants.

Thanks to Wu Shao, they can enjoy authentic stone pot braised mutton again.

Wu Shao deserves credit, and Ren Shaolan, Sanhei Jiu, and Jiu praised her generously, also praising Aunt Le's kindness.

Wu Shao was beaming with pride, and Zhou Qiufeng blushed as the handsome young men praised her.

Because of Wu Shao's merit, Lan San and Hei Jiu vied to take on the job of processing sheep offal. The two brothers worked together to collect the sheep's small intestines first, which were then used to make blood sausage.

The handsome young man and Wu Shaoren were in charge of making blood sausage, with Grandma Zhou Man assisting. The little girl wandered around outside for another hour before returning home. When she got home, she first washed the plants, drained them, and then crushed them into juice.

After finishing her own work, she became a hands-off manager.

Old Man Yan, Village Chief Zhou and his wife, along with the young people, spent the afternoon tidying up all the ingredients. In the evening, they put the first batch of braised meat into the pot to braise before having dinner.

Grandma Zhou went home first in the evening to eat piglets, chicken, and duck, and then went to the Le family's house for dinner with peace of mind.

After finishing their meal, Old Man Yi and the young people went to the backyard and busied themselves steaming a batch of marinated chickens and ducks in bamboo tubes, roasting ducks in the oven, steaming pork with rice flour and braised pork belly, and cooking blood sausage.

When Village Chief Zhou and his wife wanted to go home, Grandma Zhou, along with her son and daughter-in-law, Cheng Youde, Zhang Poluo, and Liu Lu, came to visit Le's family. They had just chatted for a while when Chen Dalian arrived.

A few of my buddies came over to Le's house for a visit last night, with only one purpose—to ask if little Lele would be staying at the parents' house tomorrow.

Then, they also learned that Xiao Lele was being followed by her parents, and that Brother Chao and his two friends would be in Meicun tomorrow to celebrate Xiao Lele's birthday.

Tomorrow is Monday, and Chao's younger brother is taking the day off to celebrate his sister's birthday. Zhou Ge, Liu Lu, and others admire him quite a bit; Chao's younger brother truly loves Lele!

Knowing that Xiao Lele was being followed by her parents, Liu Lu and the others first told Zhou Qiufeng from Yueqing that they would also come to Le's house for lunch the next day. After sitting for about an hour, they went home.

Because he had just been scolded by Uncle Man that morning, Yueqing wisely didn't refuse his good friend's invitation to come over for dinner.

Zhou Qiufeng gladly accepted her neighbors' kindness.

Zhou Qiufeng and Le's father wanted to keep watch at night, but the little boys declined and went to bed early.

Old Yi and Old Yan are in good spirits; they stayed up all night with a few young people to cook delicious food.

Le Yun doesn't need to stay up late. Even if she wanted to be a night owl, the handsome young man wouldn't allow it. Just after ten o'clock, the handsome young man sent his little sister, Xiao Ai'er, to rest.

Yueyun, who didn't have to worry about anything, was happy to have some free time. She went back to the study on the second floor, took out her tools, and worked hard to draw until eleven o'clock. Then she put away the night-shining pearl that she used as a lamp and sat down to meditate on time.

It's only been a little over ten days since summer began, and the early summer nights are already very cool.

Crickets have already come out to play, chirping and chattering with other nocturnal insects. You can also hear the loud chirping of crickets. The summer nights in the countryside are quite lively.

Time slowly slipped away amidst the chirping of insects, and before we knew it, April 25th had passed, and we were stepping into the morning of April 26th.

The 26th day of the fourth lunar month is the birthday of Yue Yun, the young head of the Yue family.

Just as the clock hands passed twelve, before the minute hand even touched five, a cracking sound, like glass breaking, came from the coral tree inside the "Sanwei Study".

That soft sound was originally very faint.

But when the music reached the ears of the meditating musician, it sounded like a thunderclap.

The music that had been playing during meditation suddenly burst forth like lightning, and the person abruptly opened their eyes.

Suddenly jolted back to her senses, Yueyun, unaware of any danger, opened her eyes and slowly surveyed the room.

I scanned the room but didn't find anything unusual.

Just as I was about to carefully check the area around the building for any unusual signs, another faint sound came from the coral tree.

The tiny "snap" sound made Yueyun leap up, and with a flying kick, she floated to the front of the coral tree, her gaze falling on the nine-colored divine lotus in the array plate that had shrunk to the size of a millet grain.

Inside the nine-colored divine lotus placed in the array plate, there were rows of jade basins, lined with soft fur and satin, and on them lay eggs.

Mysterious white eggs, iron-eating beast eggs, dragon eggs—one by one, the white eggs lay quietly in the jade basin.

The mysterious white egg and the dragon egg were both intact, except for the iron-eating beast egg, which had a tiny crack on its shell.

The seam is located in the center of the eggshell and extends horizontally, like a waistline drawn on the eggshell.

Excited, Yueyun took the array plate off the wall, enlarged it, activated the array's protective shield, placed it on the indoor floor, and jumped into the Nine-Colored God's embrace.

She ran to the baby iron-eating beast egg and happily hugged it: "Little baby, are you going to be born?"

The answer she received was a faint cracking sound of an eggshell.

Yueyun let go and saw that the crack in the eggshell had grown by about one centimeter.

The cracks in the eggshell are growing, which means the baby egg is about to hatch.

Yue Yun was overjoyed and was about to hold the egg baby and talk to it when she suddenly remembered that in the cultivation world, some beast babies would undergo tribulations at birth!

Theoretically speaking, the birth of cubs of celestial beasts and divine beasts is subject to a tribulation of lightning.

Moreover, the higher the bloodline of the baby beast, the stronger the lightning tribulation.

The Iron-Eating Beast is a divine beast, and every Iron-Eating Beast cub must undergo a birth lightning tribulation at birth.

Although Earth is in the Dharma-ending Age, some laws are still intact. I wonder if baby beasts will also experience tribulations after hatching.

Thinking of the tribulation lightning, Yue Yun could no longer sit still. She quickly left the side of the Nine-Colored God, shrank the array plate, held it in her hands, and then used a teleportation technique to leave.
