Chapter 374 Snake Den
"I'll bring my mom to see you when I get back."

Yi Chichi nodded in agreement, and the next thing was easy. He just paid the balance and left.

Seeing the people coming out, Wen's mother warmly invited them to have dinner together. Yu Rutang smiled and refused, "Aunt, my aunt has already prepared the meal."

What this means is to go to my aunt's house to eat.

It's not a good idea to stay here any longer, after all, they are already prepared.

"Then come play again next time."

"Okay aunt."

The two sisters responded with a smile, then said hello to Yi Chichi, and even remembered Qin Jiu who had brought back rabbit meat and chicken soup, before leaving happily.

After sending the person away, Wen's mother filled a bowl of chicken soup and handed it to him, "Drink it while it's hot."

Yi Chichi, "...Thank you, Mom."

We have six chickens at home, two of which laid eggs last year, and four were newly brought home this spring.

Originally, I wanted to get four more hens so that they can lay eggs when they grow up.

As a result, three of the four were roosters and only one was a hen.

Wen's mother was almost mad with anger. If you want to eat it, then you can. But it was too small before, so she could only bear with it and raise it.

Then, she finally couldn't help it and bit a little cock.

“Is the soup good?”

After taking a sip of the soup, Wen's mother's questions came up.

Yi Chichi and Qin Jiu exchanged glances, nodded in unison and said it tasted good.

“The meat is delicious too.”

She picked up a piece of chicken and put it in the bowl. She muttered, "Why is it a rooster? If it was a hen, it wouldn't have died young."

Yi Chichi didn't dare to say anything, and Qin Jiu was almost the same.

Even though he often dug up earthworms and snails and crushed them to feed the chickens, he did not dare to speak for the little rooster.

Who made it public?

For Wen Mu, who always hopes that her chickens will lay more eggs, it is a sin for a chicken that cannot lay eggs to survive.

Fortunately, my mother's emotions came and went quickly.

"Are you going to pay your taxes tomorrow?"

Yi Chichi’s answer was no. During the half-month autumn harvest, she hadn’t even touched a needle or thread, let alone a job.

She doesn't plan to go out for the next period of time, and will try to complete the task before the winter is over.

As for Qin Jiu, "Do you want to go?"

Qin Jiu nodded, "I think so."

"Then go to the commune with grandma tomorrow, visit the supply and marketing cooperative library, and then have a meal at the state-owned restaurant."

Yi Chichi made all the arrangements for the two of them clearly.

Mother Wen had just scooped out a chicken wing with a spoon and put it in her bowl. "Do you have anything to bring back?"

Yi Chichi thought about it and found that he had nothing missing at the moment.

There is no shortage of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

but--

"Mom, go to the post office tomorrow to see if my salary has arrived. If it has, you can take it back."

"it is good."

This was not the first time that Wen's mother went to withdraw money. When the September salary arrived, Yi was too lazy to go, so she went to withdraw it. She has experience.

Therefore, the next day, Wen's mother, who followed the large army to pay public grain, greeted the captain and others as soon as she arrived at the grain station, and then took Qin Jiu to the post office to withdraw money.

At this time, Yi Chichi took out her dining equipment and put it in place, then skillfully performed a set of manual exercises and entered working mode.

The silk thread, as thin as a hair, fluttered at her fingertips, disappearing from her fingertips little by little and appearing on the silk.

After finishing embroidering one thread, the split thread is also used up. If you want to continue embroidering, you need to split it again.

She checked the time and saw that it was still early for lunch, so she took the thread and started splitting it.

Before the chopping was finished, Liu Lan, Zhou Qiuyu and Ge Sujuan came together.

The first thing he said was——

"Is there any water?" "Yes."

Yi Chichi pointed to the teapot on the table and said, "Pour it yourself."

Before he finished speaking, three figures flashed before his eyes, appeared in front of the table, poured water and drank it.

"??? What did you do?"

He was so thirsty, and his head and face were covered with sweat and grass debris, looking very miserable.

After drinking half a glass of water, Ge Sujuan felt like she was back in the world. She sat down on the chair and took two deep breaths before she was in the mood to answer her questions.

"I was planning to go up the mountain, but I found a snake nest over at the meadow."

The environment over there on the meadow is too friendly to snakes, and there are indeed many snakes.

But the Snake Den...

"Are you sure it's a snake nest?"

"Seven or eight balls of dirt tangled together, what else could this be but a snake nest?"

After drinking the water, Liu Lan and the others nodded, indicating that she was right.

Yi Chichi said, "So you were scared and ran back?"

"correct."

Thinking of the scene of the dirt balls entangled together, the three of them shuddered and their faces turned pale.

"terrible."

It is normal to have snakes. They have seen snakes before. Snakes often appear in the grass beside fields, in front of and behind houses, and even on the roadside.

But those snakes act alone, and it is rare to see two at a time.

As a result, today we opened it up directly and so many appeared at once.

Yi Chichi was a little curious, "They are all tangled together, how do you know there are seven or eight dirt balls?"

"I saw it."

Zhou Qiuyu, who had recovered, wiped the sweat off his face with a bitter look on his face, and said helplessly, "We didn't know there were so many at first, so we thought we could catch them and stew them at home."

Snake meat is indeed edible. Even though the snake meat is poisonous, it does not affect its deliciousness and popularity.

Yi Chichi expressed his understanding that Zhou Qiuyu and others would have such an idea.

She hummed, "And then?"

"We leaned over to catch it, and startled the snake. Seven or eight of its heads raised up and looked at us, and we were scared away."

At this point, Zhou Qiuyu patted his chest with great relief, "Luckily those dirt balls are tangled together, otherwise we wouldn't be able to escape."

That was lucky indeed.

It would be terrible if you were caught and bitten.

"What are you doing up the mountain?"

Ge Sujuan, "There is a persimmon tree in the east mountain that is full of fruits. We wanted to pick some to make persimmon cakes. We met Lanlan on the way. She asked about it and then went with us."

Yi Chichi understood immediately that Liu Lan was almost going crazy taking care of the baby at home, and she wanted to join in the fun because it was a rare opportunity to go out and have some fun.

It's not that she likes eating persimmons so much that she is greedy. Instead, it's Ge Sujuan and Zhou Qiuyu who are really greedy.

I also want to pick some in advance to stock up some supplies for everyone in the Youth League Home.

Otherwise, when the team leader organizes people to go into the mountains to pick mountain products, according to the sales and distribution policies, the persimmons that really reach their hands may only be enough for them to taste.

Alas, it’s all because of poverty and scarcity of supplies.

"Are you still going?"

"No no no..."

The three of them waved their hands in fear. It was enough to be scared once, they really couldn't bear it if it happened again.

Yi Chichi took some seafood such as squid slices and dried shrimps to feed them.

"Just wait a little longer. When the captain and his men come back from the mountains, it will be time to divide the meat."

This year the team raised ten pigs. We didn’t have that many before, at most six.

However, last year, an outbreak of swine fever occurred in the farms, causing the death of large numbers of pigs, resulting in a pork shortage in the entire Bao'an County and even the surrounding areas.

The leadership team, not wanting another pork shortage, issued an order to raise pigs in teams to ensure the source of pork.
