Being scolded as a poor widow, I relied on supernatural powers to counterattack in ancient times

Seeing her mother staring at Xin with a sigh of relief, Bai Anjing couldn't help but say, Sister Wen has always been inseparable from her mother, if she didn't follow her back this time, she must have been sent out by her mother.

Listening to the daughter's question, Bai Yunxi nodded, "Xiao Wu is going out for the first time, I am worried, so let Wen protect him once in the dark."

Bai Yunxi didn't say much about the specific reason, it's useless to say it, it's just one more person to worry about.

Baiyunxi soaked his hands in the flower water, smelled the faint fragrance, raised his eyebrows,

"The peach blossoms are blooming?" It seems a bit early at this time.

"Yesterday, Yaya and I followed Shu'an into the mountain. We wanted to pick some mushrooms, but we found an early-blooming peach blossom in the sunny place of the mountain stream, so we picked some back. Sister-in-law is also planning to make peach blossom cake."

Baiyunxi nodded, soaked in flower water, rubbed it with ointment, and after a year of maintenance, his hands looked much better than before.

Even the daughter's hands are kept very white and tender.I just did a lot of rough work, and my knuckles are a bit rough.

This is irreversible.

Spring is here, and it's time to hatch ducklings again. The roast duck from years ago made them a fortune, and there are not many ducks left.

In order to increase the number of roast ducks, Xiao Si took Shu'an to several villages and towns to buy free-range ducks from farmers.

By the way, if you send a duck to your door, in addition to buying it at the market price, you will also be given an extra five cents for running errands.

In this way, he can save more time to do other things.

Bai Yunxi looked at Xiao Si full of energy as if he had been pumped.I couldn't help feeling that it's nice to be young.

She had promised Xiao Si years ago that she would teach them to hatch ducklings.

Seeing the boy hesitant to speak several times, Baiyunxi didn't delay, and directly took him to build the hatchery.

She used a heated kang to incubate hair, which was different from the heated kang at this time, but it was the easiest way to control it.

Use hot water to increase the temperature, and when the temperature drops, add hot water and cycle back and forth every day to ensure that the temperature is right.

Of course, there are some tricks, as long as you master them well, you can hatch high-quality ducklings with a high survival rate.

After getting ready, Baiyunxi began to teach them a few, whoever learned well and had a strong ability to accept, will be entrusted with the task of incubating ducklings in the future, and another person will help him.

"First prepare a few round bamboo baskets with warm water, wash the duck eggs and shake them in the warm water, and listen to the sound to judge whether there are broken shells or cracks..."

Bai Yunxi demonstrated to them while picking out broken duck eggs.

"Of course, the task of picking rotten duck eggs seems simple, but it also requires experience if you want to miss everything."

Xiaosi stood by, looked at the movements in Mother's hands, and blinked, "Mother, what if I didn't pick out the rotten duck eggs?"

"If you don't find out in time, it will stink in a few days. Not to mention the waste, if you have a light appetite, you will not be able to eat for half a month."

Thinking of what happened in the past, Bai Yunxi almost imperceptibly bent the corner of his mouth,
Broken duck eggs may explode under the catalysis of hot air, and the smell is so bad that you doubt your life.

The smell of the whole Kangchi will not go away in a month.

Hearing Mother's reminder, Xiao Si thought of the smell of rotten eggs, and couldn't help rubbing his nose. If he really choked, it would be uncomfortable.

"After the duck eggs are picked, put them directly on the kang, one layer is fine, leave a little space, and you need to turn them over with the duck eggs to even out the temperature..."

During Baiyunxi's explanation, the duck eggs on the kang were ready.

For the next work, Bai Yunxi handed it over to them directly. She watched from the side and raised a few words from time to time.Only hands-on practice can fully master the craft.

"The ducklings hatch in 28 days, and the temperature must be controlled during the period, especially not to catch cold, otherwise all previous efforts will be wasted. So you have to take turns watching, taking over from each other during the day and night."

"During the hatching of the first batch of ducklings, I will follow them all the time, but only during the day, and then it will be up to you."

A few people listened to Bai Yunxi's suggestion and directly worked two shifts. In this way, everyone could take a break and not be overwhelmed.

The labor intensity of hatching ducklings is not high, but it takes time and energy.Regarding this point, several people have no objection. No one is willing to give up on learning the craft.

Looking at the performance of the few people, Baiyunxi is still very satisfied. As long as people are willing to learn, they will be recruited when the duck factory grows in size.

No one is willing to give up the days that are bitter before they are sweet.

After the duck eggs are heated for ten days, they have to be sorted again, this time mainly to pick out the white eggs, which are duck eggs that have not been fertilized.Of course, this is also a technical job that requires vision.

"Removing the white eggs requires the help of light, one by one, you see, under the light, you can see bloodshot eyes through the eggshell, this tadpole-like thing is the initial form of ducklings..."

Bai Yunxi took the duck egg and explained it to several people under the light.

"As for the white egg, there is nothing but transparency."

After a few demonstrations, Xiaosi tried to take over, mastered the tricks, and became proficient very quickly. In less than an hour, they passed a thousand duck eggs.

Out of a thousand duck eggs, nearly [-] of the white eggs were removed.

"Mother, what do you do with the white eggs you picked out?" Xiao Si looked at the two baskets full of duck eggs, feeling distressed.

"Naturally, there is no waste. Use this to make preserved eggs, and the taste is also good."

Seeing the surprised expressions of several people, Bai Yunxi couldn't help laughing,

"This is a derived craft. Of course, as long as you master the method, it is also very simple. Preserved eggs are easy to make, and you only need plant ash and white lime to get it done. There is no secret, just let your sister-in-law deal with it later. You guys Specialized in hatching ducklings, don't go wrong."

Bai Yunxi looked at a few shocked eyes, pondered for a while, and didn't let them learn.

"Okay then," said Xiaosi, although he was sorry to learn crafts recently, but he didn't force it.

After these days of study, Xiao Si's perception of his mother has changed from shock to calm, and now it has calmed down.Anyway, everything is in the hands of the mother, and it can be easily resolved.

There is nothing my mother can't handle, and there is no difficult thing to trap her.

Busy days always pass quickly. When the first batch of ducklings hatched, with the cheers of the crowd, a month passed quietly.

If she teaches apprentices, she is useless as a master. After tasting the preserved eggs and preserved eggs made by Mrs. Du and her daughter, Baiyunxi has completely become a hands-off shopkeeper.

Being idle was also idle, so she volunteered and took preserved eggs to the county town to deliver to the restaurant.

When Xiao Si cooperated with Xie Yu, the two agreed that whenever they came up with any new tricks, they had to send them to the restaurant as soon as possible, and they would be responsible for selling them.

With the reputation of Nanshan Restaurant, Baiyunxi also saves trouble, and pays for every delivery.
