Chapter 187 The Adorable Little Yellow Duck

Aunt Liu wouldn't accept money, so she took out dried meat instead.

Aunt Liu waved her hand sheepishly and said, "No need. There's so much tender grass in your field. It's such a waste to pull it up and throw it away every time. Let some chickens in. Not only will they help weed, but they'll also fatten up the field!"

"That won't do. Aunt Liu's things didn't come from thin air. If you don't want them, I can't take your chicks."

“But these chicks only cost two coins each in town, your dried meat is far too expensive.”

"What's so valuable about it? It's just a token of my appreciation. When have you ever refused anything you gave me, Aunt Liu?"

Aunt Liu was both amused and exasperated: "You silly girl, you're so kind-hearted. Well then, Aunt Liu will accept it. I'll head back now."

He took the things from Qi Yunran's hands and went out. Only when he reached the door did he remember, and he turned back to Qi Yunran and said, "Oh right, Yunran, these newly hatched chicks need to be fed some fine rice and water. At night, you need to herd them into the chicken coop, and don't let them out in the morning when the fog is too thick. The grass you feed them needs to be chopped into small pieces, understand?"

"Thank you, Aunt Liu, I'll remember."

After Aunt Liu left, Qi Yunran watched as the fluffy chicks were released.

The chicks started chirping incessantly as soon as they were let out.

Qi Yunran immediately grabbed a handful of millet for the chicks, and they immediately started pecking at the millet on the ground, becoming much quieter in an instant.

Considering the chicks couldn't eat too much and might die from overeating, Qi Yunran gave them some water and then stopped feeding them.

After they finished eating, we let them roam freely in the yard.

Qi Yunran locked the door and went to the edge of the rice paddy. She saw that the rice seedlings were growing lush and green. It was a vast expanse of green, and as far as the eye could see, it was all green rice paddies. Every now and then, the croaking of frogs could be heard.

It adds a lot of fun to this hot summer day, like a beautiful and melodious tune played by nature, making people forget their fatigue and feel relaxed all over.

As she was getting ready to go home, she noticed some unusual activity in the rice paddy. Qi Yunran leaned down to look and saw a small yellow creature with its little bottom sticking out, searching for food in the mud with its flat little mouth.

Hehe... Oh, it's just a little yellow duck!
Qi Yunran's sudden appearance startled the little duck. It immediately shook the water droplets off its head, splashing Qi Yunran's face. Qi Yunran wiped the water off her face and made a face at the little duck.

The little duckling paddled away with its feet and ran off with the current. Then Qi Yunran heard the frightened little duckling find its main flock, which was terrified. A group of little yellow ducks panicked and stumbled around in the rice paddy, bumping into the seedlings and rolling in the water.

Their adorable appearance is so cute it melts your heart.

They hurriedly flipped over and continued paddling with their little feet as they swam away. A series of chaotic splashing sounds followed, and the group of ducklings disappeared.

Amusement flashed in Qi Yunran's eyes. Aren't these little ducks so cute and adorable?

When she goes to town to pick up Xiao Jingxuan tomorrow, she can buy a few more to put in the rice paddies.

Anyway, she has more than ten acres of rice paddies, which is perfect for raising ducks. With land, she can do whatever she wants.

Then we won't even need to weed the rice paddies! Ah! She's a genius!

The ducklings can be made into roast duck when they grow up; it's a brilliant idea!

That `s a deal.

The next day, Qi Yunran went to town early to buy rubber ducks. She finally found the place selling them after asking people on the street. The vendors had them displayed in bamboo baskets for sale.

The little yellow duck was covered in fluffy feathers. Another little yellow duck tilted its head and looked at her, as if wondering who she was.

Qi Yunran, however, felt that its adorable appearance made it seem as if it was smiling.

With a wave of her hand, she bought all twenty ducklings.

The ducklings were a bit more expensive than the chicks, costing three coins each. Twenty ducklings ended up costing her sixty coins.
