Chapter 490 Raising Rabbits

The dinner was very rich, including a pot of bamboo shoot stew, stewed vermicelli, fried green peppers, cold gray vegetables, and a bowl of pickled kohlrabi roots.

"Let's eat. My cooking is not as good as your sister's, but the smell is okay." Mother Su said while wiping her hands.

Su Zimu just arrived home today and wanted to make him a good meal, but Su Ziling went to deliver vermicelli again, so Su's mother had to do it herself.

Su Zimu was very happy, "My mother-in-law, your cooking is also delicious."

Mother Su smiled and added a spoonful of broth to him, "It's so sweet to read this book."

As she said that, she looked at Axiu again, "Axiu, do you want to eat the fat one or the thin one?"

"I want bamboo shoots instead of meat, and soup. This soup is delicious mixed with rice."

The bamboo shoots are soaked in gravy, and the broth is fragrant with the bamboo shoots. The meat is so simmered that it almost melts in one sip.

It is best eaten with meat and bamboo shoots in soup.

Axiu particularly likes this bamboo shoot. It is soaked in dried bamboo shoots and has a different taste from fresh bamboo shoots.

"Sister, my little rabbit has given birth to another litter of cubs. They are so cute." Axiu suddenly said.

"Ah? I know!" Su Ziling nodded, "I gave birth to six. It's just the right time for you to come back. From now on, the rabbit grass will be yours."

Axiu shook her head, "It's not that one, it's just another litter. It's red. There are eight of them."

"Having another baby?" Su Ziling didn't react.

Mother Su smiled and said, "Another litter was born. Axiu discovered it. Your grandma and I didn't pay much attention to it. We just threw some grass to it every day and then checked to see if the little rabbit was okay. We didn't look that much. Look carefully, who knew there was another litter? It looks like they were born not long ago."

Father Su didn't understand even more, "Didn't the previous litter just give birth not long ago? Why did it give birth again?"

"And I remember, didn't Xiaoqing keep the male rabbit at a distance? Is it possible that she got pregnant just by looking at him through the wall?"

Su Ziling: "..."

How could she explain that rabbits have two uteruses?

Mother Su murmured, "This rabbit must have given birth too fast. It has only been so long, and it has given birth to two litters. I am afraid that we will have to raise more and more rabbits in the future."

"You can roast it when you grow it up. Roasted rabbit is also delicious, and there is also the double pepper rabbit made by my sister." Su Zimu said.

Hearing him talk about eating rabbits, everyone's eyes fell on Axiu. After all, it was because she was reluctant to eat those two rabbits that she raised them.

Who knew that Axiu also nodded, "Okay, but I think roasted rabbit is more delicious, but, sister,"

She raised her eyes to look at Su Ziling, her eyes sparkling, and she said: "Let's raise rabbits. These rabbits give birth so fast. Let's raise more rabbits. Then we can sell the rabbits! Or bake them and sell them. We will definitely make money."

Hearing what she said, everyone was stunned, and then turned to look at Su Ziling.

She had never thought about raising rabbits before. Rabbits have strong reproductive abilities and can give birth to five or six litters a year, with five to ten in each litter. Moreover, rabbit meat is also delicious.

But similarly, rabbits are relatively fragile and prone to illness. If they get sick, they will die in groups.

but……

Looking at everyone's expectant eyes, she said: "It's not impossible, but we can't raise too many rabbits. Rabbits are relatively fragile and easy to get sick. When the time comes, one illness will cause the death of the whole litter. Let's raise fewer rabbits."

"When there are more rabbits in the future, you can ask the people in the village if they are willing to raise them. If so, let them raise them too. Each family can raise a few rabbits. When they are raised, our family can harvest them. Then they can be made into spicy air-dried rabbits, or Take it to a restaurant or a mountain pass and sell it.”

"Your method is feasible. Raising chickens and ducks requires feeding grain, but rabbits don't need to be fed. They can just feed grass. Moreover, they will give birth to many animals and grow quickly. It is a good business."

Even Mr. Su was extremely excited after hearing this.

After dinner, all the bowls were confiscated. Mother Su rushed Su Ziling to wash her feet, "There is hot water in the pot. Please take a dip and go back to the house to rest. You have been running all day."

Su Ziling was indeed very tired. She didn't feel anything from walking just now. After she stopped to rest for a while, when she stood up again, her heels felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't even lift them up.

After washing, as soon as I lay down, I couldn't open my eyes. I didn't even think of giving milk to Su A with the banknote I just received.

Early the next morning, Su's mother and the others got up and started working. Su Ziling slept until midnight. When she woke up, everyone had eaten breakfast.

Su A'nai and Su's mother carried a few buckets of water to wash the olives in the yard. Mr. Su and the others were no longer at home, and the cows were no longer in the pen. They must have gone to open up wasteland again.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Mother Su glanced this way, "Are you up? The rice is warm in the pot. You can take it and eat it yourself."

Su Ziling rubbed her eyes, feeling the soreness on her calves, and frowned slightly.

"My eldest brother and the others have left the stall?"

Mother Su: "I've been there for a while. I thought you were very tired yesterday, so I didn't call you to get up. How about it? Does your foot still hurt?"

"It's okay, a little sour," Su Ziling looked around, "Where are Erniu and Axiu?"

"We went to cut pig grass and rabbit grass. These two children woke up early in the morning as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood. After eating, they ran away with their backpacks on their backs."

Seeing that she was still standing in the yard, Su's mother urged, "There is hot water in the kettle. Wash up quickly and eat. Your grandpa said that your uncles will be coming over for lunch in a while, so it's almost time to light a fire."

"Oh, I got it!" Su Ziling yawned and responded.

"By the way, when I was sorting out my things yesterday, I discovered that there was a fan of ribs?"

"Ah, yes, Mom, if you didn't tell me, I almost forgot. I bought the pickled bone bream from the shop. My dad came back at noon and asked him to chop it. I have a lot to do today!"

Su Ziling wailed and resigned herself to fetching water to wash up.

Mother Su's face was filled with distress, "You tell me and your grandma what you need to do. I won't go out today. I'll do it with you at home. It's the Chinese New Year and there are indeed a lot of things to do."

"Thank you, Mom. Just wash the olives for me. I'll boil the water and soak them later."

"That's it, go and eat quickly. If you are too busy later, call us."

After Su Ziling washed up, she went to the kitchen. The pot was covered with a lid. When she opened it, she saw several vegetables and steamed buns warm in the pot, as well as a bowl of stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots.

She went to look in the cupboard again. There was a bowl of bad peppers and a bowl of pickled vegetables, and there was half a bowl of mixed roasted peppers next to them.

She took them all out and put them on the table. She took three vegetable steamed buns, one stuffed with spicy peppers, one stuffed with mixed roasted peppers, and the remaining one was dipped in broth and eaten with a mouthful of vegetable steamed buns. One bite of pickled vegetables, the aroma is overwhelming.

After finishing one, she took a bowl and took the other two wowotou to the yard to eat in the sun.

"Auntie, your skill at making steamed buns is getting better and better." As she said this, she saw the wilted radish strips on the side and stuffed one into her mouth. It wasn't crispy anymore, but it was very sweet.

"Come on, what kind of craftsmanship does it take to make this steamed bun? If you eat it deliciously, it's because there is less corn and there is too much white flour this morning."

Watching her eating radish sticks, she said, "These radish sticks are wilted in the sun. What's so delicious about them? There are some tender ones behind the door over there. Eat the juicy and tender ones. They're still sweet and delicious."

"Well... I'm just going to see how it's done in the sun. It's almost ready for pickling. Let's pickle it together today. The radish tassels are also wilted. Let's pickle them together today to avoid getting our hands wet again."

Su Ziling walked around and ate, not forgetting to look at the radish strips and radish leaves that were drying in the sun.

Seeing the crispy Polygonum sativum on the side, she murmured again, "We can also make the wine koji together. Why are we all doing this together?"
