four and a half year old farm family pet

Chapter 2909 It’s winter again this year

After twenty days of feeding, the silkworms raised by the monkeys were white and plump, and each silkworm was as thick as a bubble-filled index finger.

Every time Paopao enters the Lucky God's Mansion, he will pick up two of them and play with them in his hands. He doesn't look scared at all.

She even wanted to take the silkworm baby out of the Lucky God's Mansion and bring it back to her room to raise it. Yuan Bao was afraid of scaring Pei's mother, so she didn't agree.

"Brother Monkey, when will these silkworm babies be able to spin silk and form cocoons?" Paopao and the Monkey King sat side by side on the field ridge, their backs looking inexplicably harmonious.

The monkey king chirped and answered Paopao's question, saying that it would take ten days to weave a cocoon and turn it into a pupa.

"Oh~ Then when you get there, you must wait until my brother and I arrive before we can start boiling the cocoons and getting the silk! I want to make a silk handkerchief for my mother myself!"

The Monkey King squeaked and readily agreed to Bubble's question.

After sitting with Bubbles for a while, the Monkey King patted his butt and stood up like a human, saying that he was going to pick mulberry leaves, and then waved goodbye to Bubbles.

Yuanbao and Quanquan were sitting not far away, enjoying the big watermelon in the Fortune God's Mansion, both with their legs crossed.

"Mother, are you still growing cotton this year?" Quanquan suddenly asked Yuanbao.

Yuan Bao ‘Huh? ' With a sound, he looked at Quanquan suspiciously and spit out the watermelon seeds in his mouth.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and asked Quanquan, "Why do you suddenly ask that? What do you think?"

Quanquan said calmly: "No, I just watched the sky at night and inferred that this winter should still be a cold winter, so I want to remind you that if you want to make money during this cold winter, you can start planting cotton in advance."

Yuan Bao opened his eyes wide in surprise, what? Did she hear it right just now? Watching the sky at night? Her son, observing the sky at night?

Yuan Bao didn't care at all whether he made money or not. He immediately put the half-eaten watermelon back on the table, sat upright and asked: "Quanquan, when did you learn to observe the sky at night?"

Quanquan still looked calm, "Half a month ago, I heard Mr. Gongsun talk about the celestial phenomena and found it very interesting, so I asked Uncle Tianbao and the others to borrow some books from the Imperial College. According to what the books said, these days, The celestial phenomena indicate that this year will be a cold winter."

"Half a month? It's only been half a month, and you've already learned it?!"

"What else? It's not like I don't recognize the words in the book."

What he said made sense, and Yuan Bao was speechless for a moment.

She has seen so many strange things, and she believes in celestial phenomena, but she has never studied them, so to her, things like celestial phenomena are nothing more than fantasy.

Now her precious son, a child whose baby fat has not completely faded away from his cheeks, took only half a month to figure out through self-study that this year was a cold winter, and she felt mixed emotions.

As a mother, she must be proud and proud, but at the same time there is still a hint of 'envy and jealousy' in her heart.

Seeing that Yuanbao didn't speak and Quanquan stopped eating the melon from his hand, he looked at Yuanbao and asked, "Mother, don't you believe my prediction?"

Yuan Bao came back to his senses and said seriously: "Of course not! Is it the cold winter? Okay, mother, go find those monkeys and ask them to plant cotton on all the land except the mulberry trees. Let's make a lot of money this year!" "

After saying that, she thought of something and added: "When I make money, my mother will give you 20%, oh no, 30% of the profit! After all, it was you who calculated the celestial phenomena and told my mother."

"Okay." Quanquan nodded generously and accepted Yuanbao's suggestion without any embarrassment.
