Parents are busy farming

Just as Zi Zifen put down her account book, one of the girls came over and said to Zi Zifen: "Fifth girl, would you like to go to the village and have a look? Recently, Li Daniu has been collecting duck eggs and using a kang to hatch the ducklings. According to the old woman in charge of hatching the eggs, through You can even see the duck inside by shining a light on the eggshell."

Ye Zifen raised his eyebrows after hearing this. This is really good news.

It's just that 'the woman who hatches eggs' makes people think a lot.

"Really? Then I really want to go to Zhuangzi to take a look. There is nothing wrong in the store, and I can trust you. Now that I am going to Zhuangzi, if anything happens, I will go directly to Fuke to see shopkeeper Wang. Do you understand? "

After Ye Zifen finished speaking, he stood up.

"Don't worry, Miss. Shopkeeper Luo warned her before leaving!" The two girls promised Ye Zifen and sent her out the door.

They stood at the door and watched Ye Zifen gradually walk away, and then returned to the store to continue packing.

Girl A: "Fifth girl is getting busier and busier now. Thinking back to when we first entered Lujiazhuang, the lady's shop was just starting up, and there was that short-sighted person who wanted to scheme against the lady. It feels like a lifetime ago to think about it now."

Girl B: "At that time, you could see the fifth girl every day no matter how late it was. Now you can't even think of seeing her for ten days and a half."

Girl A: "I see that the key stalls are getting bigger and bigger, and naturally they are getting busier and busier. Not to mention the fifth lady, look at these shopkeepers, how often do we get to see them? No wonder they are good at it. There are so many!”

Girl B: "Yeah, now that we're in the shop, we've met more talented people and learned more. If we were in a weaving workshop, we wouldn't have time to look at people. They would all be busy with their hands with their heads down. Live?"

Girl A: "It's not necessarily impossible to get ahead in the weaving workshop. Don't you think these female stewards all come from the weaving workshop? Not to mention our shopkeeper Luo, even that girl Meng'er has risen to the top in one step. What follows? Miss, the future will definitely be bright."

Girl B: "That girl Meng'er is very clever and clever. I discovered it when I first came to the weaving workshop. She is just a child with bad luck. How can such an outstanding girl be loved by a father who favors boys over girls? Mother is sold!"

Girl A: "She is lucky. If she were in her original home, I don't know what she would have done! She lives a much more comfortable life under the hands of the young lady. Going to the beach with the caravan this time is the best, isn't it? Prove it?”

Girl B: "But we don't need to be jealous of Meng'er and the others. Even if the work at hand is a little busier, we are still happy! If this were placed in my previous home, I would never have imagined that we could live like this. Living!”

Girl A: "Fifth girl said that when we are twenty years old, we will be allowed to leave. In fact, I think it is good not to leave. Now we have food, drink and housing, and everyone respects us. What do you think if we get married? , busy with three meals a day every day, I don’t know what it will be like!”

Girl B: "Who says not? How comfortable life is now! Although you can get married by then, but there are few people like Shopkeeper Luo who can be favored for marriage as early as possible. The most important thing is that they can still do this. Treat her wholeheartedly! I have no confidence."

Girl A: "So, I have already decided that while I can work here, I will work hard and save more money. Well...at least I will save enough money for the rest of my life. I will buy a person in the future. You can live a good life by yourself.”

……

The two men chatted while wiping the counter.

Zi Zifen naturally didn't know what they were talking about. At this time, she had already walked out of the city gate and headed towards Zhuangzi.

It was almost noon, and it looked like we were going to have lunch at Zhuangzi. Thinking that I hadn’t cooked a good meal for the girls in some days, I decided to get some good ingredients after going there to treat the girls. .

All the county laborers went to dig ditches, so I didn’t see many people along the way.

The wide road is very quiet. In the past, when walking on this road, I would always meet a few fellow villagers from time to time, and there was an endless stream of people.

Looking at the wheat on both sides of the road, although it is also growing, it is indeed not as cheerful as last year. It is probably because the air is very dry, but it is still reasonable!

She tried not to let her mood get too low, so she quickened her pace, controlled her breathing, and started exercising again.

The others came to Zhuangzi. Li Daniu was not seen. It was said that Li Daniu had gone to Zhuangzi in the south of the city to talk to Xiang Qiang.

Ye Zifen didn't care about anything else and planned to go see the duckling that was about to hatch.

These ducks will be used in the future, even if there is no such disaster, it will not be a loss.

Once the ditch is dug, the ducks can be free-range, which will then be regarded as a costless income.

It was the first time she came to see the mother and son who were responsible for hatching the ducklings since they came to Zhuangzi.

The last time she came to see them, she found that they were busy, so she didn't have the nerve to bother them again.

The mother and son were still a little nervous when they saw Ye Zifen. After the salute, they kept hunched over and did not dare to raise their heads.

"I just came here to see how far the duckling has hatched. Don't be nervous, just tell me."

As soon as the mother heard that Ye Zifen wanted to check the condition of the duck eggs, she immediately said: "Slave... slave... I will take the young lady over to have a look."

Ye Zifen could hear the other party let out a long sigh of relief.

Seeing how nervous they were, she had no intention of correcting their words. She thought they would relax a lot once they got familiar with each other.

The mother bent forward and led the way, with Ye Zifen following behind her.

He was soon led into an extremely hot and dark room.

"Why are all the windows in the house sealed?" Ye Zifen had just walked in and her eyes were still a little uncomfortable, so she asked curiously.

"Oh! Well... Seal all the windows. Let's light a lamp in the house so that we can see more clearly when we shine on the duck eggs."

Hearing the other party's answer, Ye Zifen understood and nodded.

The wisdom of life comes from life. Ye Zifen didn't understand the details, but they found a way to do it in their own way.

Then the mother lit the lights in the house.

With the light, Ye Zifen could see the general situation inside the room clearly.

The kang in the room was neatly covered with quilts.

Put your hands on the kang. Well, the temperature on the kang is relatively warm.

Just as Ye Zifen was looking around, the old mother had climbed onto the kang, opened a corner of the quilt, took out two or three duck eggs, and made a show of giving them to Ye Zifen.

"Miss, if you hold the duck egg up to the light, you can see what's going on inside the duck egg!"
