Nongmen sisters and brothers are not simple

Chapter 146
"You can leave this to me. Fanxing, how many chickens and ducks do you want to hold in your family." Mrs. Zhang nodded, gladly accepted this and survived.

"Chickens and ducks must hold at least one hundred each."

"Do you want to hug so many?" Zhang asked in surprise.

In the past, people in their village would raise chickens and ducks in spring. When they grow up, they can let the chickens and ducks lay eggs to eat by themselves or hoard them and take them to the town to exchange for things.

Raised chickens and ducks can also be killed and eaten by themselves. Generally, each household will not raise so many, a dozen or so is considered too much.

Because the chickens and ducks also need to be fed, and there are too many chickens and ducks to eat.

Fewer chickens and ducks are raised directly in the mountains. After dark, the chickens and ducks will come back by themselves, and then they can be penned up and fed.

"I think one hundred chickens and ducks is a bit small, and it's about two hundred each! Nai, it's a pity to throw away the rapeseed and tea seed materials we squeezed out of the oil. I don't want to take these materials and mix them. Other food, feeding chickens and ducks is not
In this way, these materials will not be wasted, and chickens and ducks can be raised, not to mention an increase in income, and we don't have to worry about feeding chickens and ducks. "Xie Fanxing explained.

The two of them also used these materials to feed the chickens before, but she and her uncle didn’t have many chickens, so they couldn’t eat much of these wastes, but most of them were eaten by the chickens and ducks of the villagers, and some of them were even thrown away, thank you The stars can't be wasted, and the waste can't be used.

"Succeed, this matter has to be done, so I will leave it to grandma." Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhang also remembered this matter, and she also felt that there was no way to waste any materials, and it was just enough to feed chickens and ducks.

After Xie Fanxing left, Mrs. Zhang did what she said, and gathered all the eggs from her uncle's house and Xie Fanxing's house together. When she saw that the quantity was not enough, she asked Xie Fanxing to give her money. She visited the village where there were chickens. The duck family bought 250 chicken and duck eggs each.

I bought more because I was afraid that there would be infertile eggs that would not hatch in the future, so I bought more.

After buying all the chickens and duck eggs, Xie Fanxing did not leave. She planned to learn how to hatch chickens with Mrs. Zhang.

Because she thought of a kind of food --- living beads.

Xie Fanxing plans to get some live beads to eat by herself in the future, and get some fresh food for her younger siblings by the way, so she has to learn how to hatch chickens.

I saw Mrs. Zhang separate the chicken and duck eggs first, and then she brought two big boxes.

Spread thick cotton around the two large boxes, and then put the selected eggs into the box, one layer on top of another, but Zhang said that eggs should not be stacked more than three layers, otherwise, the middle The eggs do not hatch well.

After laying the eggs, Zhang filled a leather pot with hot water, stuffed it under the cotton that put the eggs, and then covered the eggs to be hatched with a quilt and closed the box.

He told Xie Fanxing that the most important thing for hatching eggs is to maintain a certain temperature in the box. This temperature has been maintained for 7 days, and the eggs are turned every 2 hours.

After the eighth day, the egg-turning time was changed to every 3-5 hours, and at this time, the eggs can be lighted.

If there are blurred blood vessels in the egg, it means there is a chick, and the yellow one is a non-fertilized egg. Pick out the non-fertilized egg, and the other eggs will continue to hatch. After 21 days of hatching, the chick will be will hatch.

.

"Fanri, I'll give you a bunch of money, and you go to the villagers' homes to collect eggs." Xie Fanxing learned how to hatch chickens. After she returned home, she gave Fanri a bunch of money to go to the villagers' homes to buy eggs. go.

"Big sister, grandma has taken all the eggs from our family and uncle's house, are they still not enough to hatch chickens?" Xie Fanri also knew that they were going to hold a large number of chickens to hatch chickens. He was surprised that, They also need to collect eggs, how many chickens and ducks will their family raise in the future.

"The eggs collected this time, I will make food for you to eat."

"Elder sister, no one in our family likes to eat eggs. It's okay to not eat eggs for a while. Don't we have a few old hens? We can eat them after laying eggs in the future! There is no need to go to the villagers' houses to buy eggs."

"Fanri, why are you chattering so much? Eldest sister asks you to do some work and pushes back and forth. If you don't go, I will go. I will go to the villagers' house to buy eggs. In the future, elder sister will use eggs to make food. Do you have any? Don't eat if you can." Fan Yang, who was polishing his bow and arrows, couldn't help but choked up Fanri, the elder sister asked him to do some things, so he just grinded and chirped.

"If you don't eat it, you don't eat it. If you don't eat eggs, the eldest sister can cook other dishes. I can eat other dishes." Xie Fanri was choked by Fan Yang, and he said very firmly that he would not eat it.

Anyway, I don't really like eggs. He has eaten tea eggs, poached eggs, marinated eggs, and fried eggs made by his elder sister. Although the taste of all kinds of eggs is good, it is not necessary to like to eat.

How did Xie Fanri know that his eldest sister was going to use eggs to make live pearls and bake them to eat, which was something he had never eaten before.

Because of his ambition today, he said that he would not eat it. After the live pearls and roasted eggs came out, he was so greedy that he wanted to reach out to eat them, but Xie Fanyang refused to eat them for him.

And said that he himself said not to eat.

When Fan Ri watched them eating live pearls and roasted eggs, he was so pissed that he was so angry that he hated it!If I had known earlier, I would not have said this.

"Sister, the ingredients you prepared to make sweet potato wine have already been fermented, and the smell of wine in the wooden barrel is getting stronger and stronger. Can we start making wine?" Fanchen asked Wu from the Wu family After returning from the doctor's visit, she went to check the wine making materials in the warehouse as usual, and before opening the lid of the wooden barrel, she smelled a smell of wine, she whispered happily in her eldest sister's ear.

"The koji made this time is not so good. If good koji is used to make wine, the aroma of the wine should have been so strong. If the wine is steamed, let's start tomorrow!

After we had lunch today, we went to the mountain to pull small bamboo shoots and dig spring bamboo shoots. "Although the koji produced by Xie Fanxing this time is finished, because there is no mother koji mixed with new koji, the taste of the koji produced this time is light and not strong.

It doesn't matter, the last time there was no mother song, she made wine song. She plans to use the wine song made this time as the mother song and make some new wine song after a while.

Presumably, the koji made for the second time was mixed with the mother koji. The next time she brews sweet potato wine, the wine will be more fragrant and stronger.

"That's okay, I won't go anywhere tomorrow, and I will steam the wine with my eldest sister." Xie Fanchen couldn't wait to watch the steamed wine come out, feeling a little excited in his heart.
