Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

Just find a ceiling fan and go alone. I have been to the tourist area several times recently, and the situation along the way has been relatively clear. At least there are no dangerous animals in the tourist area, and there is no danger in going alone.

When Zhao Yeqing got up, Mu Xi was about to set off and drove the car out in the backyard.

Mu Xi poked his head out of the car window and saw Zhao Yeqing standing sleepily on the balcony of the second floor watching him go out. He was only wearing a summer nightgown and waved her back to the room.

"If you feel sleepy, go back and sleep for a while. Get up and put on your pants. The sun hasn't come out yet. If you leave the room dressed like this, you'll be bitten by mosquitoes again."

Zhao Yeqing rubbed his eyes and said before returning to the room, "Then be careful and go back early."

Hearing the sound of the car getting further and further away, Zhao Yeqing did not climb into bed again. After going downstairs to wash up, he checked the situation of the barn with a refreshed mind. He found that Mu Xi had already fed the animal, so he walked to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

There were steamed buns and steamed buns in the pot, and there were two pots of iced soy milk in the refrigerator. Zhao Yeqing had a simple breakfast, and then went to the pig pen to carefully check the condition of the piglets. The weather was hot and humid and it was easy to get sick, so he had to check several times a day. Just in case.

The pigs are all fed together. Once one of them gets sick, it will soon spread to all the pigs. The resistance of piglets is relatively weak, and the hygiene of the pig pens must be kept clean.

After seeing the piglet, you also need to look at another sow who is about to give birth. Judging from the condition of the belly, it is estimated that it has only been there for a day or two.

Unexpectedly, after she let the cattle and sheep out, the sow started to move.

When Mu Xi returned home and took the hanging fan he found into the pig pen to install it, he saw Zhao Yeqing feeding another sow postpartum nutritional feed. There were ten piglets in the sow's arms.

"It's happening now? Nothing unexpected happened, right?"

When a sow is giving birth, she will kick the person who helps deliver the sow if she feels uncomfortable. Therefore, when Mu Xi delivered the sow last time, he did not let Zhao Yeqing take care of it. How could he know that in just two hours today, ten pigs would be delivered? All were born.

"It's okay, it's going well, it's just that I gave birth to a little too much."

Zhao Yeqing sighed. In order to have enough food at home, it seems that he can only eat roasted suckling pig next month.

In the past, no pig wanted to eat pork, but now there is too much pork to eat. The freezer section of the refrigerator at home is almost entirely filled with pork, and all the beef and mutton have been eaten.

Mu Xi asked Zhao Yeqing to come out to rest, then he walked into the pig pen with tools and started cleaning.

Zhao Yeqing recorded the birth time in his notebook. It takes about twenty days for the piglets to be weaned. They need to start feeding feed after weaning, and castration is much earlier. It is best to get it done in about a week. .

There are so many pigs who don’t know how much feed they need to eat.

Mu Xi finished cleaning, washed his hands and walked to her side. He looked down at the data in her notebook and thought for a moment: "Just leave two of them and raise them. The pigs at home will have one litter a year. Just the two of us." Adding in the dogs, it’s about the same as eating two pigs a year.”

Zhao Yeqing closed the notebook and looked outside the yard, spinning the ballpoint pen in circles. "Actually, I have an idea. When the grain fields outside are harvested, I will let the pigs roam free outside the yard. There are many meadows with vegetation now. They are naturally It’s just a domesticated wild boar, so it should be able to find grass roots to eat.”

The quality of free-range pigs is definitely better than those raised in captivity.

Mu Xi thought about the feasibility of Zhao Yeqing's idea, "It should be possible. The only thing I'm worried about is that they run away. Should we fence off the pasture near our home?"

Zhao Yeqing shook his head: "The area we have here to grow things is not that big, but if we need to enclose it all, the area will be too big. It will only be enough to use up all the wires. It is too wasteful. I think every night Feed the pigs normally so they will develop the habit of knowing when to come back at night and stop running around.”

"Okay, let's put the two ends out for a test when the time comes."

There is so much grass on the meadow now, if we don’t use more, everyone who goes out will be buried in the grass.

All the sows at home have given birth safely, and the remaining time only needs to be taken care of the ewes that are about to give birth at home.

The two ewes that had a blind date with the wild goats before were supposed to be the first ones to give birth. Zhao Yeqing paid special attention to them and kept them at home during the recent period, not letting them go out with other sheep.

Goats are more lively than sheep. Even pregnant goats can't help but want to run outside.

Zhao Yeqing could only throw some fresh grass into the sheepfold after a while to coax them to calm down.

Mu Xi was not at home. He went out to follow the herds. Recently, he had to follow him from time to time to avoid being unaware of any new creatures on the meadow.

As usual, when he arrived at the place, he sat on the top of a high hill and watched. Standing at a high place had a better view and could quickly detect danger.

The dogs led the sheep to graze, and they would choose a place with rich pasture for the sheep to graze every few days. Today they came to the grassland near the pine forest.

This area used to be the place with the most animal communities. Going forward is the lake, going in is the woods, and going out is the meadow. The geographical location is very advantageous, and it has become one of the favorite places for various animals to appear.

When they first came to the meadow, the wild boars were probably the rulers here. Later, the wild boars ran away and the wolves also lived here for a short time.

Now the other end of the pine forest turned into a big yellow cat. It was not known whether it would come out of the forest to hunt, so Mu Xi faced the direction of the pine forest and stood guard.

Maybe it's because the big cat has a greater deterrent effect. There are not many animals to eat the pasture near here. It is particularly lush compared to other places. The dogs may also smell it. Once the sheep are close to the pine forest, Any movement you make will be driven back by the dogs.

Until the sun set in the west, there were no animals nearby, except for a few rabbits hopping over and birds passing by in the sky.

Zhao Yeqing's voice rang from time to time on the walkie-talkie in his hand, asking him when he was going home. It was almost time, so he stood up and dusted off the grass clippings on his pants, picked up the walkie-talkie and pressed the button, just as he was about to speak... .

A tiger roar came from the pine forest behind me!

Mu Xi's pupils tightened and he quickly turned around, but there was nothing behind him. Zhao Yeqing's panicked voice came from the intercom: "Hey! Mu Xi is talking! What was that sound just now?"
