After rebirth, I win people's hearts by being cute
Chapter 9: Stinky Egg Attack
Liu Huan didn't see the chicks for two or three days.
The little red one protects its cubs and won't let anyone get close to them. When eating, it only takes a few bites and doesn't move away. It is probably because some of them have not yet hatched.
It was not until the third day that Xiaohong brought her cub out for a walk. The furry little yellow cub was running everywhere, and Liu Huan wanted to catch it in his arms.
The family members all had smiles on their faces before they even went to the fields. Su's mother even took a handful of the brown rice she was eating to reward Xiaohong.
Liu Huan counted carefully and found that there were only nine eggs, out of eleven, which meant that two of them were rotten.
When Xiaohong walked a little further away, she ran over quickly and took the two eggs away.
Xiao Shi came up to her, squatted down and stared at her, "Huan Huan, why are these two missing?"
Cao'er was also feeling bad, looking at the two eggs with a broken heart, "Yeah, this is such a pity."
Liu Huan didn't know how to explain the loss to them.
She found that one of the eggs had a small gap, so she carefully peeled the egg along the gap.
Bloody feathers were visible inside.
Mother Su was surprised, "Ah, this one hasn't come out yet."
When I peeled it open, I found the chick curled up in a ball. Its feathers had started to fall off, and it looked like it had been dead for two days.
It was probably because it was too weak to break free from the eggshell and suffocated to death.
Su's mother picked it up and looked at it carefully, with a look of pity on her face, "This one costs fifteen cents in town?"
What? Liu Huan was shocked. A chick hatched with this little penny was sold for fifteen pennies?
It's simply huge profits.
She didn't think it was a pity at first, but now she is starting to feel the pain.
"How much is the big one?"
Su's mother said, "The big ones can be sold for 20 wen per jin, and one can be sold for about 70 or 80 wen."
Liu Huan saw the business opportunity there. This mountain lacked everything except grass. If he studied how to raise earthworms, he would be rich.
Seeing that she could peel a chick out of an egg, Xiao Shi wanted to try it himself. He picked up another egg on the ground, but the egg was smooth and he lost his grip and it dropped in front of Liu Huan.
It exploded with a bang, and most of the egg fell on her.
The stench was like that of a rat that had been dead for a long time and was only discovered after rotting. It was so smelly that it made me want to vomit.
Seeing that he had done something bad, Xiao Shi quickly apologized: "Huan Huan, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
The atmosphere suddenly froze. Everyone wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. Su's mother held back her laughter and said, "It's my fault. I put an egg from home to try it out, but it didn't work."
Liu Huan was very hurt. She felt like she was suffocating because of the stench. She subconsciously looked at Shi Tou, "Shi Tou..."
Stone:"……"
Shitou sighed and took off her outer clothes. He found that there was also stain on her hair, so he had to go boil some water for her.
Liu Huan washed her body several times with wood ash and still felt smelly. She began to miss the shower gel from her previous life.
I was unhappy all morning. I didn’t even want to feed the chickens, and I couldn’t enjoy my meal.
Especially when Xiaoshi said, "Huanhuan, you are still stinky."
After hearing what he said, she probably felt that it was psychological problem, the smell on his body was getting stronger and stronger, and it even went into her mouth.
Liu Huan glared at him, then started crying while holding her chopsticks, feeling very aggrieved.
No matter how lively she is, she is still a girl. Which girl would be happy to be called smelly?
Seeing her crying, Su's mother scolded Xiaoshi: "What are you talking about? It was you who got her into trouble."
Cao'er also hugged her to comfort her: "Huanhuan doesn't stink, we didn't smell it, Xiaoshi was just talking nonsense, I'll boil an egg for you later instead of giving it to him."
Liu Huan cried even more sadly, she hated eggs the most.
Seeing that he had gotten into trouble, Xiao Shi put down the bowl and walked up to her to beg for mercy: "Huan Huan, I'm sorry, I was just joking, please don't be angry, okay."
Liu Huan was really angry this time, the kind that no one could appease.
After finishing his meal, Shitou did not go to the fields, but went in another direction. Father Su saw this and asked Dashi to accompany him, and told them to be careful.
When I came back, I had a few soap beans in my hands. Although they were not as fragrant as soap beans, they were better than wood ash.
He fetched some water, heated it up, carried it into the house, washed her hair himself, and used the rest to let her take a bath. Only then was Liu Huan happy.
Holding his head affectionately: "Stone is still the best to me." It feels so good to be cared for by someone, hehe.
Shitou opened her furry head and gently picked up the comb, "Come, I'll comb your hair."
After all, she was the child he raised, how could he possibly watch her sad and crying?
Soap nuts are really magical. Liu Huan feels that she smells good all day long, and tells everyone she knows that she smells good: "Can you smell it? Do I smell good?"
Xiao Shi smelled it carefully, with surprise in his eyes: "Huan Huan, you have become more fragrant."
She snorted proudly, "It was Shitou who picked the soapberries for me."
Su's mother naturally knew about this, and said very seriously: "This time he went to pick the rotten eggs by accident. The soapberry tree is dangerous. Next time, use plant ash, understand?"
Of course Liu Huan knew it, and nodded obediently: "Mom, I know."
Both of them were happily circling around the chicken when a woman's voice was heard from outside.
"Sister-in-law, are you home?"
The person who came was wearing a cotton jacket and a pair of gold earrings. His skin was lighter than that of the villagers. He looked capable and smart, with a smile on his face. It was obvious that he was a straightforward person.
The person who came was Su's mother's sister-in-law, the village chief's daughter-in-law, and Shitou's aunt.
Su's mother put down the dustpan and went out to greet her: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?"
The aunt looked at the chickens all over the yard and was surprised: "Oh, you bought so many chicks, that's great."
Cao'er Liu Huan followed out to say hello, and she symbolically praised him a few words to explain her purpose.
"As for me, I am going here for my son Ming Er."
"He studied in town for a few years, and now that he is old enough to start a family, he wants to come back and open a school in the village to teach the villagers to read. I heard that after learning to read, they can work outside and earn this amount of money."
The aunt raised a hand.
Mother Su was shocked: "Fifty cents?"
The eldest aunt said proudly, "Five hundred coins a month is easy to earn. I just thought your two children are of age. Do you want to go? I'll reserve a place for you."
Su's mother was a little hesitant, fearing that the family wouldn't be able to afford so much money if both children went.
The eldest aunt saw her concerns and said, "Don't be so hasty to refuse. Wait until Da Nian comes back and discuss it with him. He won't be back for a few days tomorrow."
As soon as the aunt left, Su's mother went into the house and took out the money box. Inside was the copper coins she had saved over the years, tied together with a hemp rope, which added up to exactly two taels of silver.
"This money is saved for your elder brother's marriage." Dashi is twelve years old this year and will get married in a few years. This money is not enough, and Su's mother dare not spend it carelessly.
Liu Huan comforted her: "Mom, that was not a way for us to make money before, but now we have started to feed the chickens, so we will have money, right? In a few days, we can buy some eggs for Xiao Huang to hatch, and we can sell them for a lot of money when they grow up."
He added: "You can earn money slowly, but you brothers can't wait any longer. If you get older, you won't be able to go to school."
This is also what Su's mother considered. She always felt that Shitou was a man with his own ideas. As long as he could read, the family would depend on him in the future.
"Let's discuss this when your father comes back."
Cao'er was very envious of Liu Huan's knowledge. He knew so much at the age of only three. Suddenly, she felt a little inferior and a look of loss appeared on her face.
